Uncharted writer leaves Naughty Dog
[url]http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/03/05/uncharted-ps4-writer-amy-hennig-leaves-naughty-dog[/url][quote]Amy Hennig, the creative director and writer on the Uncharted series, has left developer Naughty Dog.
Numerous trusted sources close to Naughty Dog have verified Hennig’s departure from the studio. She was writing and leading development of Uncharted PS4. Her final day at the studio was Monday, March 3.
Sources claim Hennig was “forced out” by The Last of Us’ Neil Druckmann and Bruce Straley, and explained that Uncharted may now come under their control.
Hennig recently celebrated her 10th anniversary with Naughty Dog, where she served as director and writer on Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves , and Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception. Her work was recently profiled in IGN’s The History of Naughty Dog.[/quote]

That's a shame. Either way, I'm glad Neil Duckmann is in on Uncharted 4 now, if this is true. His lack of presence in the development of Uncharted 3 is painfully obvious. He made Uncharted 2, and TLOU. He was the writer(maybe creative directer on UC2, and creative director on TLOU, he and Bruce basically made TLOU.) They had no part in Uncharted 3, and I'm sorry, but it was pretty obvious. With this, Uncharted 4 will be kicked up to a whole new level. Though I do worry about what Team 2 at ND will make now. A new TLOU is 50/50 they say, they also have new IP ideas.

So the two of them went up to her and were like "GTFO woman. We run this shit nao"? Isn't she partially accountable for the success of Uncharted? Why would they force her out? Wut wut wut? I'm assuming i'm missing something?

Why would they "force her out" ? She's one of the best writers in the industry, shouldn't they want to keep her around? Maybe she'll go back to crystal dynamics and write another LoK game..... I would cry man tears. ;_;
