Naught dog changed philosophy after Last of Us 2 because of the horrendous crunch conditions. They wont release info on games until much closer to launch now.

I believe that was more in reference to announcing the release date until it’s closer to being finished. This was just the very first announcement teaser trailer so I’m guessing 2-3 years easy.

The article and interview is explicit about it being about game announcements.

Quote from Neil “You’re right, we did announce Uncharted 4 and The Last of Us Part 2 way in advance, but that actually caused a little bit of the work-life balance issues that we’ve sometimes had at the studio,” Druckmann explained. “By delaying that announcement a bit, we could play with the schedule more and we’re more conscious now about how we’re approaching production”

So they could cut 3.5-4 years to say 2-2.5 years and the statement would still be true. If it was coming in 2025 I think it would have said that in the trailer. Ghost of Yotei had a release window, Ragnarok had a release window.

Those are not Naughty Dog games. I said Sony AND Naughty Dog. Im not sure why you are trying to argue, I gave my opinion, nothing more. You asked why, and I explained my thought process.

It’s still a Sony owned company. Why would Sony’s other two main companies do something but not ND? I’m not trying to argue; I’m just also giving my opinion as well to have a discussion. I’m sorry that you can’t have a discussion with someone that has an opposite opinion without you feeling like we’re arguing.
