I was hoping that Naughty Dog would try something different in light of a new game, but the similar gameplay style albeit fewer ammo and more realistic enemies has let me down slightly. Although I have not seen gameplay in action, this preview has certainly painted a very clear picture of what it will be. I hope Naughty Dog take a leaf out of 'I Am Alive's book and adds more character to the enemies rather than a standard 'we want to kill you to get your stuff' mentality. Maybe a trade option or peaceful resolutions would make the game more satisfying from a story perspective although killing them would also be an option.

I really did not like this "preview". It tells me more about that gameplay than I cared to know about before playing it myself. Also, it's written in a bit of a whiny fashion. It comes off as encouraging me to disregard the game and that there might be some nice things, but the overall opinion from Andrew Yoon comes off in a "been there" "done that" kind of way.
