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.
Players are taking to Reddit to let Bethesda know they want ghoulification added to Fallout 76 in a future update.
Hanzala from eXputer: "Contra: Operation Galuga, though nothing new and has some story issues, is still a love letter to Contra fans just wanting to shoot stuff."

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.
