10 Year Anniversary Stream tomorrow at 9 AM PT but no new or upcoming TLOU games info. Discuss.

All I gotta say is "Baby what is u doin?"

Personally I was a HUGE fan of TLOU Factions on the PS3/PS4 Remastered. I did all the trophies TWICE. Multiplayer was great. I am really hoping it's not canned.

 

[Unknown?]

They were my favorite in the PS3 era and PS4, but man, they need to get with it!

 

[Flabagast]

Why do they not cancel it ? this is a pure waste of time.

 

[Luipadre]

wtf is ND doing man. Wasting an entire gen on tlou again sigh. Im so over it

 

[Fake]

Lmao. What a disaster.

And Tom Henderson report that they are making TLOUSpart2 remaster with is the most hilarious thing I have heard.

 

[Vandole]

It's really quite remarkable. They came up with a simple and amazingly fun multiplayer game. The gameplay is near perfect, and all they needed to do is create some more multiplayer maps. But apparently that's just too hard.

 

[The Cockatrice]

"Hey guys come and enjoy our 10-year anniversary for TLOU with us while absolutely NOT talking about anything related to TLOU"

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Might as well cancel the "TLOU Day" aka the Outbreak Day then.

 

[Elder Legend]

No clue. But yurinka did mention I think some time ago that they have more teams now that are split between a New IP, TLOU 3 and Factions. But my problem is that it's been almost 3 years since PS5 launch and there is not even a teaser logo or anything.

 

[Topher]

"announcements focused on art, merch and more"

 

[kanjobazooie]

Abby waifu pillow incoming.

Yeah idk, it just seems like pointless now. Let's be honest, who gives a fuck about cosplay and shit. Yeah, cool outfits but that's not as exciting as a new game or some sort of teasing

 

[mdkirby]

What on earth is happening with this game, seems some crazy (and likely very expensive) development hell going on

 

[Represent.]

Thanks, Bungie!

 

[TheInfamousKira]

You know, Ellie, we really are The Last of Us: Remastered: Remake: Director's Cut.

It wasn't loot heavy enough for Bungie, so they delayed/cancelled it. Quite literally this is what happened.

 

[Alebrije]

Sounds boring unless they really deliver solid news about Faction this event is irrelevant.

 

[RoadHazard]

Man, how ND has fallen. I mean, I like TLOU, but what are they doing? They were THE Sony studio during the PS3 gen, then only pretty good on PS4, and now nothing. Insomniac are kicking their ass.

 

[Salty Popsicle]

They are most likely re-tooling the game to be more GAAS-centric. Probably with the help of Bungie.

 

[TheInfamousKira]

If they really ARE working on a TLOU2 remaster, holy shit.

I will be gobsmacked and simultaneously unsurprised when 6 million people buy it

 

[Elder Legend]

Thanks, Bungie!

The one weird time that I agree with you.

Abby working as PR to deal with the hopes of fans everywhere:

Maybe it's time to let this project go.

 

[GHG]

Jim and Hulst wasting one of their best SP assets by getting them to fumble around with live service multiplayer crap.

Should be a sackable offense.

Not sure of watermelon guts or hers...

I was thinking "where's the baby?"

 

[simpatico]

By the time it comes out people's zombie fatigue will be over and the cycle renewed. ND playing 5D chess here.

imo: swallowed up by their own hype, they've lost the thread...

 

[lughnasadh123]

I wouldn't get too close to find out.

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

Too busy working on The Last of Us Part Two Remastered for PS5.

I'll take one for the team. Guts gonna get rearranged one way or the other.

 

[lh032]

i think it needs more time than a year to fix the GaaS issue.

Get up in them guts, boy! Don't get an ass tulip if she squeezes too hard tho

 

[ByWatterson]

Only thing that gives me any confidence is the lack of absolute disaster stories coming out. No word of anything in years is really disheartening, though.

 

[DForce]

Why do they not cancel it ? this is a pure waste of time.

Why would they cancel it if there are still plans to release it?

 

[Shadowstar39]

Pretensious Druckman, it has something to do with him, I know it. They went downhill during Uncharted 4 development. They aren't the cool studio I remeber from the uncharted 1-3.

Lmao "ass tulip" got me howling at work

I guess you missed this one...

[Elder Legend]

Some people think that anything GAAS or not single player is automatic waste of time because it does not fit their style of a game. Which is very ignorant imo.

I saw it. Bad. Not disastrous. I mean like a holy shit studio is crumbling, Bioware-style reporting.

We all like Creier's agenda driven hitpieces now when they align with our fandom!

Sure, but having the Factions teams reduced to a mere fraction of what it was and implementing more GAAS features after a review by Bungie is still pretty bad.

I can't stand Jason, his such an egotistical piece of shit asshole with an attitude.

 

[DForce]

If they plan on revealing the multiplayer game, it's certainly not going to be revealed during The Last of Us Day.

Kind of a clownish thing to say and revisionist.

They released 4 games and a dlc on the PS3 and all the games utilized the same engine, the first of which was pretty forgettable.

Uncharted 2 is when they made their mark on the PS3 and that didn't happen until 2009, three years after the launch of the console, and they were working off the template in Uncharted 1, not coming off a pandemic.

They're almost certainly working on 2-3 games at the moment, one of which we believe to be an original IP for the first time since 2013.

Insomniac hasn't done any new IP or genres this generation and has relied entirely on past engines and assets...

What are you on about?

I guess huffing sarkeesian farts only gets you so far.

The studio peaked at UC2.
