I remember some nikkas being against a sequel because “the ending of the first was perfect”
nikkas is crazy, even if you’re not partial to Part II, this series has enriched gaming as a whole.
I say two new games from Naughty Dog, ideally new IPs, and then I’m ready for Part III (doesn’t necessarily have to be about these characters, but if it is I’m sure it will be compelling) at the end cycle of the PS5. Looking at their output this gen, with UC4 and Lost Legacy, then Part II, it shouldn’t be out of their reach, especially if the PS5 removes bottlenecks and facilitates development.
Druckmann himself has already said he’s not sure if his next game will be something new or part III. I’m reading this interview with IndieWire and he reiterated that with “
At least until if we ever make another game” so he’s at least partial to the possibility. This is such a rich world with untold potential for stories, plus the way they elevated the gameplay, I want more.
