Years after seemingly hanging up the cape and stepping away from games, Bruce Straley – best known for his work directing several Uncharted games, as well as The Last of Us – is back with a funky little game called Coven of the Chicken Foot. It focuses on reactive companion characters, and Straley's own words, "It's not something that you need to do a remaster of in the next four years because the tech has already outgrown it."
Straley shared that sentiment with Polygon in an interview that spans his legacy at Naughty Dog, the reasons for his departure, and the work he's been up to ever since. This comment seems particularly pointed considering Naughty Dog has spent the years since Straley left largely remastering or remaking much of its own work.
