ive never understood the argument factions would have meant naughty dog couldnt make single player games.
get naughty dog to make it then get another studio to run it leaving naughty dog to go back to single player projects. sony had plenty of studios but nope they shut them down this would have given one them a reason to stay open
it baffles me that Horizon zero dawn apparently cost $45 million to make and Horizon forbidden west cost $212 million now i understand costs go up but how come forbidden west cost over four times the amount to make?
@Oram77 i think factions is a different case. they had already released a successful original version of factions with the original last of us and the remaster. i agree naughty dog shouldnt waste time making mutliplayer games but maybe get someone else to make it for them
having actually played it unlike alot of people who comment its ok
the problem is its not really offering much to get you to stop what your playing and its not what people want remedy to make so it was never ging to be accepted and do well
at this point i would rather they released digital at launch then waited till its fully patched and complete and then release the disc version of a game. that way it a full complete version on this disc no internet required that is preservation.
disc games at this point just gives you the option to resell it when done which in its self has value
loved fallout 3 and vegas on ps3 i hope they dont loose the green tinge everything had in fallout 3. they changed the look of oblivion in the remaster and it lost something for me
@Lup thats the thing im surprised hasn't blown up no critic scores at all from anyone for a game that is actually out. shady stuff that would be called out usually and the reason the games media arnt talking about its shadiness is they are complicit in it
