Nolan North May Have Outed The Last of Us 2

Voice actor Nolan North casually dropped word of a Last of Us sequel during a recent Q&A panel.

"For now, last one," North said on the video, when asked if he has any upcoming projects with Naughty Dog aside from Uncharted 4. "I know they're doing a Last of Us 2 but my character in Last of Us kind of had an untimely demise."

It is possible that North is mistaken. His answer was in the context of explaining why he doesn't have any other Naughty Dog projects lined up, so whatever scuttlebutt he's heard wouldn't have been inside information from a cast member. However, he's well known and connected enough to give his word some credibility.

Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward Review in Progress

I've already put about two dozen hours into Final Fantasy XIV since the Heavensward expansion came out, and I've spent that time battling dragons, following an uncommonly well-written story for an MMORPG, and generally saving the world. I'm currently halfway to level 53 (out of a new cap of 60), and I'd probably be much further along if it weren't for a nasty sting I received from a striped bark scorpion on Friday morning.

Now here's the catch — the vast majority of that time has been spent slogging through old content from before the Heavensward expansion. That's right! In order to even play the new Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward content or even try out the three new jobs of Dark Knight, Astrologian, and Machinist, you need to play through the entire main storyline from the launch of the game up until the 2.55 patch that was released just last April. (Check out the quest titles: I was on page 5 when I started.) Keep in mind that this romp includes much more than the usual business of watching cutscenes and teleporting all the way across the continent just to read two lines from a white-haired kid in tights; it also means jumping into several four- and eight-man dungeons and trials that range from the ridiculously simple to those requiring considerable feats of coordination.

Destiny: Why Bungie's MMO Shooter Is So Successful

With interest in Bungie's online first-person shooter still on the rise, Destiny's momentum is more comparable to an MMO than your usual shooter. Activision CEO Eric Hirshberg attributes this ongoing success to the strong cadence of carefully curated add-on content -- which is consciously different than that of Call of Duty -- that actively improves Destiny.

"A game like this requires a steady stream of content to keep people engaged and that’s core to this idea," Hirshberg told IGN at E3 2015. "That's what's been successful in keeping people engaged so far. We’ve had the right cadence to keep the game fresh and provide new challenges and new rewards. So that’s definitely the strategy."
