Yeah, because they're too busy making misery porn to actually make games that may actually be fun to play...
I don't understand why some are upset by this honestly. Most, if not all, of the creative leads behind the Jak & Daxter games have long left Naughty Dog.
Even if modern-day Naughty Dog were to develop a new entry, I doubt many would even consider it to be a worthy entry.
I suspect that many really just want remakes of the original trilogy like Crash.
After the reception of TLOU Part II, not many other modern developers can elicit intentse reactions like Naughty Dog.
That intense love and intense hate is a wonderful place to be cretaively imo, certainly better than indifference.
Whatever direction Naughty Dog decide to go this gen, most people will be glued without a doubt.

Maybe because the vast majority of them are marketed at kids and younger audiences in general?
Obviously, you can still enjoy cartoons as an adult, but it's not like the association is an irrational one.

Cartoony or not, I just want them to release a new IP. That used to be one of the fun aspects of Naughty Dog, now they spent the entire Ps4 gen working on sequels and it sounds like the next big thing we'll get from them is a TLOU Multiplayer.
Though with Druckmann in charge I don't see them doing something cartoony. He needs to make something serious and "mature" so he can continue being a frustrated movie director wannabe.
Shame that the secondary team is probably going to be in charge of the TLOU multiplayer, leaving Druckmann open to make more of his crap with the next big single player game.

Bigot sandwiches basically started the modern sexual revolution.

For the same reason why people think that realistic games are just boring walk simulators most probably.

First of all, thats 4 lol.
Secondly, ND made 4 Jak games.
There were also 2 EXTRA Jak games after that.
4+2=6

Your Pepe face is how I feel about The Last of Us 2. I loved the first game and had a decent time playing the second game, but after Joel died I kinda just had that face for the rest of the game. Hopefully if they make Part 3 the characters and plot will be much more interesting.

Mckmaster uses MasterCard to buy Slave drives
1. Abby is a great character
2. Maybe Druckkman should ask Sony for more money to open a new\small studio within ND?.....

Rammed down our throats? No one is asking you to buy or like the game. So now developers have to make games based on what gamers decide and not just whatever they are passionate about? So you should have choice but they shouldn't? You are what's wrong with gaming culture, you are self entitled.
So what if they want to make LOU3, you don't have to like it or buy it. I'm tired of gamers thinking they have the right to decide what's right and wrong. Go make your own games or better yet take up another hobby and quit bitching about woke shit.. We are all past that, get over it!

Yup. All I ask for if they make a TLOU 3 is a streamlined story not broken up with either Ellie or Abby or a new main character
Tommy would work too

I definitely hope so.
I personally wasn't too much into their PS4 output (found both Uncharted 4 and TLOU2 disappointing, though still fun).
So I'm crossing my fingers they get back to the top tier status (at least to me) this gen

Breaking news :
Evan and Neil are grown ups now, they don’t want to play with their children toys anymore. Evan won’t even give his nana a kiss in public, and Neil has sold all his cascada albums and only listen to my chemical romance now.
(Which explains tlou2 edgy tone and lame revenge storyline)
- "Dad was such a drag. Every day he'd eat the same kind of food, dress the same, sit in front of the same kind of game. Yeah, he was just that kind of guy, but then one day he goes and kills us all! He couldn't even be original about the way he did it. I'm not complaining, I was dying of boredom, anyway. But guess what? I will be coming back, and I'm bringing my new toys with me."
