Well, I think it's pretty obvious those games wouldn't be the same, or be made at all, if there wasn't TLOU, and if it hadn't been such a success, both critically and financially. Copying is a form of flattery.

Half of the devs in the game industry have a hard time just making a generic war game so Idk about that.

What is making you guys think he's working on a new game?
He is clearly brushing up on his painting skills for a mural.

Maybe Cliff joined one of the many studios he was visiting last year...

I dunno, the last time he put his mind to creating an original IP shooter the result was pretty much the birth of a new genre.
The guy talks a fierce amount of total shit lately but I don't doubt his game design chops.

Beautiful destruction going on in one of those pics. Definitely set in the future.
This is very true, but the presentation of these tropes was what set it apart.....as a fan of tons of post apocalyptic movies Last of Us was pretty run of the mill story and theme wise, except like all good scifi had a very unexpected ending

He didn't invent the third person shooter, come on now...
Looks very very interesting....Im really hoping this isnt an indy game, because this game needs a budget to fully realize that concept art....also LOL at people thinking wandering guy with small child was created by the Last of Us....its a trope that has been around forever and works very well....
also loving that its a futuristic city that isnt being blown to pieces

Yes, all these third person cover-based shooters that came after gears were just complete coincidence.

Has modern game design shifted entirely to making the character look after someone weaker and more naive than them in order to draw a emotional response?
Is that all we can do now?

This older picture reminds me of Gantz:
Don't know if it's related to the newer pic. but it does look sorta futuristic.
Also looks like Derek Fisher, Beyonce, and Jay-Z in the background.
lol Andrew Bynum wearing what looks like a wrestling helmet next to Fisher too

The same goes for all the post-apocalyptic games that may come after TLOU, especially those which feature a father-child kind of themes.

You've just described every modern classic ever. It's not about the originality of the material, it's about how the execution elevates it above other attempts.

Because they will not strive to be -30fps like Naughty Dog's masterpiece.
The last of us beats most oscar winning movies in this regard..Honestly they should award it with best picture and it is possible since it is equal parts a movie and a game.
