Just poking fun, but on a serious note this piece was set to be written awhile ago. I drew some real concern right around the time when I first read the news of Naughty Dog choosing not to upgrade their engine for the next generation console of games on the PlayStation 4. Here’s why.
Working as a prequel to the 2019 Dollhouse, Dollhouse: Behind The Broken Mirror will release on Xbox, PlayStation and PC via SOEDESCO
Out now on consoles and PC, Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles aims to be a different type of city builder, but it doesn't quite hit the spot.
SOEDESCO has revealed horror prequel Dollhouse: Behind The Broken Mirror is coming to consoles and PC later this year.
Not worried about it, it's ND they have presented us with several masterpiece titles and the change of direction of titles while proving they can do it.
No need to fear Naughty Dog is Here!
With a few tweaks I don't think we can worry. I mean look how amazing the uncharted series and the last of us looks. Plus with the more available ram this Gen I'm positive they can produce something outstanding. Naughty Dog=Brilliance.
I don't think people have any idea how hard it is to come up with a "new" engine.
Why should we be worried? First of all, it's Naughty Dog. Secondly, if your current engine looks and runs great, then why not build from that and make it better? It would cost too much money to create a new engine from scratch.
are we also not forgetting Sony's ICE Engine team? Most of Sony games are built around resources and programs built by ICE.
