At least Naughty Dog are doing something new, but this didn't grab me. Looked like the most generic sci-fi setting ever.

If narrative driven games aren't your cup of tea there's nothing wrong saying that, but writing off the extensive gameplay provided in naughty dog games is silly. I think your take would be better directed at something like Metal Gear Solid, that actually locks you in for hour long non-interactive cut scenes.

You may wanna re-read my comment—I did not bring up cut scenes, or claim Naughty Dog games don't have enough gameplay sections.

My point was Naughty Dog's gameplay sections are uninspired, non innovative, and passable at best because they're more interested in telling a story than innovative gameplay.

Whether I like narrative-driven games or not is of no relevance.
