Closure

As of late most us Sly fans have let our feelings known about Sanzaru's announcement that there will be no more Sly games. And before I get into my feelings about that I already wanna make it perfectly clear it's not their fault. Sony decides what to do with Sly now. And given his sales record; we don't know if another Sly game will come into fruition.

I already made my thoughts on the matter clear in one of my journals: shinragod.deviantart.com/journ…

But sometimes I feel if you're an artist and you truly feel passion about something, you gotta put in words via a pic you drew yourself.
Hence this piece; my last piece I am making before I get down to the business and resume drawing pictures for people I owe.

Essentially the title says it all; all I want now...is closure! Just at least ONE more Sly game with ONE thing: a solid conclusion.
And what event in the proposed game would help give us closure? Sly and Carmelita's reunion of course. If ever a time for them to finally end their 'rivalry' and admit their love to one another; it would no doubt be when they're reunited somewhere in the game. Or...at the end of the journey of the game and they will no longer be separated.

There are other things to wrap up too: meeting the rest of the ancestors, finding out the deal with Penelope's plans, and perhaps even one more showdown with Clockwerk given it's time travel.
It would wrap up the series nicely.

I drew Sly and Carmelita reuniting. I know both of these two rarely show their tears: what with Sly being the charismatic and dashing thief and Carmelita being the hardened criminal buster. But given their separation; the emotions between these two would no doubt be there and it would be a very happy reunion; with more than likely a few tears shed. At least, that's how I envision it.
Given Sly's brand of humor; it might go something like this.

Carmelita: Sly....sniff...I...sniff...I'm gonna slap the crap out of you and probably won't stop...
Sly: Sniffle....And I'm gonna let you....

Ha ha. These two and their whirlwind romance. XD But yeah; I say both would finally put the 'cops and robbers' chase to bed, go back to their own time, get married and start making Sly babies.
Cause in my honest opinion, one more Sly game to give us fans closure is really I want to see. And for sure it would probably be the last game. Not like the supposed conclusions like in 'Metal Gear solid IV' and 'God of War III'; where they continue the sagas due to them being successful franchises.
Sly itself wasn't a very profitable franchise. So if Sony finds it in their hearts to wrap things up with one more game; that would give me closure and I'll be happy.

And again guys...not Sanzaru's fault. I'm happy they took on the Sly franchise and gave us a solid title. Although I'm pretty sad some people out there totally hated it and really gave them the business when hearing the Sly series wasn't going to continue...for now it seems.
But if ever another Sly game, one more is all I'd ask for and one that gives us a complete closure to the series.

I drew this pic to this music. My recent bout with the Crash Bandicoot tribute pic REALLY inspired me of late:

Seems like good peaceful music to end a series like this on right?

On a funnier note; note the buckle with the Cooper face on it and how it seems to be getting closer to Carmelita's crotch. (Is that foreshadowing? XD)

But anyways, that's my two cents: the rest of what I said in detail is in my journal I linked to in the artist's statement.

Again...the one thing I want with Sly is closure. We may or may not get it. But it would be something I'd like to see.

Sly Cooper and Carmelita Montoya Fox belong to Sony
