After Uncharted (action/adventure) and The Last of Us (horror/zombie... ...sort of), what genre should Naughty Dog tackle next that follows the cinematic formula of their current games? To come two mind for me. One is sci-fi/space opera, which was rumored when Naughty Dog visited SpaceX as well as the creation and inclusion of the Savage Starlight comics found scattered throughout The Last of Us. The other is high fantasy (such as The Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, etc.), which if I'm recalling correctly, was considered prior to them settling on the action/adventure focus of Uncharted. Any other suggestions?

 

[QisTopTier]

Give us Savage Starlight

 

[alr1ght]

You're going to get Uncharted and TLOU sequels.

 

[Jawmuncher]

True scifi I think would be a cool fit for them since there's less of that TPS wise. Though a historical piece if they pick a very unique time period.

 

[loaf of bread]

I need TLOU2 so yeah. They're doing TLOU2

Spoiler

Please have Joel and Ellie

 

[Smooth Operator]

You're going to get Uncharted and TLOU sequels.

I didn't collect the comics on the PS3 version, but I made sure to do so in TLOU:R. I want to see a fully realized version of that universe. It sounded so cool.

Though a historical piece if they pick a very unique time period.

I doubt they'd want to step on SSM/RAD's toes. From the looks of it, The Order: 1886 is basically what a Naughty Dog historical piece would be.

 

[Plinko]

I'd love to see them do a colorful, action-packed 3D platformer with a likable duo. Maybe a guy and an animal friend or something.

 

[Byronic Hero]

Go back to the comedy/3D platformers they were once known for (Crash Bandicoot/Jak and Daxter) and see if they still got it. (Doesn't necessarily have to be an existing franchise)

 

[Fbh]

I'd like to see their take on Sci Fi.

Whatever game genre they decide fits better with it

 

[pixxxelz]

I just want Jack 4 ;_;

 

[TheWorthyEdge]

SCI FUCKIN FI

 

[orochi91]

JRPG

 

[rtcn63]

Nintendo should give the Zelda IP to Naughty Dog. Can't get any worse.

 

[BGMNTS]

I would put non existent mortgage on TLOU2 being their utmost priority. Fuck new IPs strike while the iron is boiling hot.

 

[ebullientprism]

You're going to get Uncharted and TLOU sequels.

And we are done. Thanks for playing folks.

 

[EightBitNate]

Sci-fi would be swell. Maybe sci-fi horror.

 

[hydruxo]

Maybe sci-fi.

 

[Hip Hop]

FPS.

would like to see that tbh.

or some sort of open world game, if you can count that as a genre.

 

[Shinta]

3D versus fighting game.

 

[PensOwl]

I heard the remaster genre is popular with the kids these days.

 

[ArkhamFantasy]

The evangelion genre.

 

[Schweinehund]

60 FPS Platformers or an RPG.

Anything above 30 fps and doesn't look like a summer blockbuster.

 

[Fix The Scientist]

Sci fi. And less linear, more gamey while they're at it.

 

[IAmRandom31]

Gritty Aliens esque sci-fi horror / drama with strong character development as always.

 

[ComputerBlue]

Give us Savage Starlight

Open world sci-fi with 80s cheese.

 

[TheSinkingKnight]

4th person sci-fi shooter.

 

[KyanMehwulfe]

Cyberpunk RPG

 

[Jawmuncher]

I doubt they'd want to step on SSM/RAD's toes. From the looks of it, The Order: 1886 is basically what a Naughty Dog historical piece would be.

Yeah I was thinking about that after I posted. They'd have to either change the type of game they make or something.

 

[Usobuko]

Are they even big enough to handle a 3rd game beside TLOU2 and Uncharted4 atm?

 

[Squidofman]

90's cops. Co-op action game. Point Break/Bad Boys.

 

[Skelter]

Maybe sci-fi.

Sci-fi what?

They should try an RTS just to see if they can actually do it.

 

[Deleted member 80556]

While I do want a space game from Naughty Dog, I don't want it to be Savage Starlight. Would love if it were a hard sci-fi game.

 

[theWB27]

I hope they keep doing what they're doing. Better stories, characters, and settings is all I ask for.

 

[MrCunningham]

90's cops. Co-op action game. Point Break/Bad Boys.

Buddy cop co-op game, doo it.

 

[Zukuu]

Aynthing but a cover shooter please. I'm so sick of it. They waste their talent as story and character writer on the boring gameplay. A genre where you can interact more with said character and enviroments. RPG, point and click adventure or what do I know... If I see a conveniently-placed-waist-height wall in their next game I will just skip it.

 

[JehutyRunner]

90's cops. Co-op action game. Point Break/Bad Boys.

As someone who loves The Last of Us so much and its gritty, depressing, grounded nature a lot...

 

[Kyoufu]

Would love a sci-fi third person action RPG.

 

[infiniteheteroskdasticity]

60s mob game. Kind of like an ultra polished, linear version of Mafia 1.

 

[EdReedFan20]

I have a feeling Amy Hennig's Star Wars game will feel like a sci-fi game using the Naughty Dog formula. Star Wars: 1313 seemed to use it as well. I'm so sad we'll never get to play that game.

 

[TacticalFox88]

Action game ala Platinum Games?

 

[Seik]

Team up with Santa Monica Studios to make what would be the most iconic rhythm game ever feat. UNCHARTED X TLOU X GOW?

Action game ala Platinum Games?

Or this, go.

 

[Instro]

Something interesting. I liked TLOU's characters and their stories, but I really don't give a damn about zombie apocalypse anymore and haven't for a long time. I'd like to see them attempt to craft a world with the kind of lore and depth that would set it apart of a popcorn flick. More depth to their games in general would be a welcome sight to be perfectly honest.

I suggest you play The Last Of Us, then.

 

[amnesiac]

90's cops. Co-op action game. Point Break/Bad Boys.

This is a brilliant idea. Do it.

 

[Andrefpvs]

Visual Novels.

 

[Nanashrew]

Something outside of the typical fantasy, sci-fi and zombies. I'm tired of Tolkien and generic space sci-fi/fantasy and zombies in everything and I want something more.

Something outside of a shooter as well.

 

[EdReedFan20]

What if they did a straight-up comedy, but still followed their current cinematic formula. That could be interesting. Maybe they could get some well known comedians.

 

[Ol No Bones]

I think they should tackle third person action adventure, with platforming and large set pieces.

 

[Krejlooc]

I'd love to see Naughty Dog handle a cyberpunk detective adventure game. Kinda like snatcher.
