Jeff Grubb on TLOU Multiplayer: "Naughty Dog wanted to do things its way, which maybe didn't bode well for Factions."

[Zeroing]

Who said it was Gass? Who said Sony interfered?

This is first naughty dog big online only game…
Doesn’t take a genius to know that things are more certain to have drawbacks and delays!

Anyway, everyone is panicking it’s funny!

I wouldn’t believe a word Grubb says.

Damn. Sounds like Sony wanted more micro transactions.

Or player engagement in a long term, doing a good gaas its fucking hard

From the rumors (which I'm not saying I trust or don't trust) it seems it was all about long term player engagement.

Which, if I’m not mistaken, means players continuing to spend money lol.

Bungie reviewed the game, because Sony asked Bungie to review GaaS projects. Thus, Factions is GaaS.

Well I trust Naughty Dog when it comes to making games/gameplay etc. An online world set in TLOU world playing story driven missions, PVE/PVP is one of the few times Id play online like Desiny and GTA etc.
So Im up for it over a small studio title

In this Day and age you wont spend a dime on any multiplayer game if its not a gasss, and that taking account the game will be free, if you wanna chárge for a multiplayer game you will send it to day, that its a luxury that only some ips can achieve, and even the ones with experience like battlefield are having a hard time doing that

Naughty dog doesn’t work or does things like other studios. But e yeah the game will not be free.

I interpreted his tweet as basically Naughty Dog pushing against typical GAAS mechanics and then Bungie (experts in GAAS apparently) saying no, this wont work long term.

I did not read it as anything to do with Sony corpo wanting more MTX etc.
