Gaming Community / Re: Say Anything About The Gam...
Last post by the-pi-guy - Today at 04:25 PMFor me, it just kind of reaffirms the complaints I've been making about the industry.
The AAA space is hit with a lot of bloat, and probably a lot of issues that few people are really publicly talking about.
But there are plenty of AA games that have similar or even bigger budgets to Uncharted 2.
It just feels like no one is making a game with this kind of scope. A lot of games are trying to compete with bigger - even if they shouldn't and they don't have the resources, and most indie devs naturally have to make something much smaller.

Last post by Legend - Today at 04:02 PMQuote from: BananaKing on Today at 05:22 AMI don't think it was that they suck at their job. It's that it was one of the best teams in the world at the time. Sure indies can have the same tech, but they don't have the same resources or level of quality that ND had.Uncharted 2 was made by 85 people on the Naughty Dog side.
It's crazy to think they pulled it off in 2 years though. That and with a fantastic multiplayer
Making a game like Uncharted 2 felt in 2009 would of course be very very hard in every way. Making a game like Uncharted 2 feels in 2025 however really does just require a great smallish team.

Crazy expanding so soon after launch. And really really funny that this was memed into existance. Stupid and childish, but shows that the geofence is trivial for tesla to expand. This shape certainly wasn't their og plan.

Last post by BananaKing - Today at 05:22 AMQuote from: Legend on Yesterday at 10:19 PMIt is crazy. Uncharted 2 was so advanced for its time but even nowadays where an indie team can pull off the same tech and production, it's just such a high quality package.I don't think it was that they suck at their job.

I think 90% of writers and directors just really suck at their jobs

Last post by Legend - Today at 04:40 AMI think you love Uncharted 2!
It was essentially my first ps3 game. So amazing at the time. And I've replayed it a bunch, was my first plat.
I don't know if it'd hit the same today. I think I've changed too much.

Last post by the-pi-guy - Today at 03:33 AMI fricken love Uncharted 2.
I think it's been like 5 years since I made my sister play, and it's probably been like 8 years since I've played myself all the way through.
It's so fricken good. Like there's a good reason it's in my top 3 games.
I love how the game controls, and I'm not even sure what it is. It's one of those games where walking and climbing just feels good. Uncharted 1 and 3 didn't quite make it for me.
And the game is such a ride.
Falling down buildings, shooting helicopters, the train level. The game just never lets up.
And the game has so much uniqueness. Like the Tibet village where no one speaks English, where you can pet the yaks.
And I love the visuals. There's like a semi realistic, yet there's a painting feel to the visuals.
And I love so much of the scenery. Uncharted 1 is mostly like the green fortress and it's very nice. But here we got mountains, we got great greenery on the train level, we got museums, we got so many wonderful locations.
It would be impossible for me to overstate how much I love about this game.

Last post by Dr. Pezus - Yesterday at 05:24 PMQuote from: BananaKing on Yesterday at 12:43 AMWatches superman. Better than I thought it would be. But it wasn't fantastic either. Some of it was really silly. I also didn't like some of the casting choices. Though superman himself was goodHehe silly is always expected with James Gunn. I didn't feel like he went over the line considering it's a superhero movie
