the first game turned gaas by jim ryan gets shelved when they could've just released it as regular multiplayer

i hate these people

LORD

They need to fire half the team and make them crunch again

#makenaughtydogslavesagain

The layoffs are only for contract workers and doesn’t effect any of their full time staff. 🥱🥱🥱

We're all pumped for the Uncharted movie sequel

This reminds me of when Sony Santa Monica worked on a new IP for years then scrapped it

Yeah this isn’t coming out

Naughty dog themselves wanted to make the multiplayer bigger in scope

Good, i need all live service games to fail. Need bungie to fail miserably for destroying destiny and being leeches

Look at Diablo, Halo, even splatoon 3. GAAS games that don’t have their s*** together, lead to mediocre content roadmaps. Better they realise it now rather than after release

Rip

Honestly tho they probably just need to rethink the direction of this game, and then ramp back production once they have a renewed vision

Contract workers are the people who do the grunt work lol

25 contract QA workers

they prob still in the design phase rn of their next game they dont need em rn

Called it. S*** is dead man.

Also, firing contractors with no severance and telling them to keep their mouths shut (with no financial incentive) is f***ing wild.

tbh i have NEVER seen a contractor get severance ever. they dont even get benefits when working

It still doesn’t reflect well on the company, especially telling them to keep quiet alongside it.

they arnt being quiet lol they posting on twitter and linkedin about it. Seems to be some mistranslation and prob relating to NDA around the projects they worked on

looks like i'm not buying a ps5 anytime soon

factions with tlou2 gameplay too good to be true I guess.

Naughty Dog washed up.

tlou2 remake soon come
