I don't have confidence in her hair growing back. Druckman doesn't want to read the room, because like all of his similar minded companions, he wants to force his agenda.
We've seen Johnny Somali in Japan, now in Korea, soon we'll have a playable version of Johnny Somali in space The future of the past is now! Exciting stuff
At this point, the only reason this game is relevant, is because RUclips creators make it that way. Steam dropped 14 thousand , 5 hundred games last year, you can double and triple the amount of good games you get in a year, and for half the price. That's actually taking back your media.
Amy and Bruce were the heart of Naughty Dog. Both are gone and it shows greatly. All you have to do is replay Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune. The writing in that game alone blows away anything current ND can do. And that’s the weakest game in the uncharted series imo. I also LOVED uncharted 4 and I’m curious to see if my opinion still holds up. I only played it once all the way through and it blew my mind. I know that was the final game Bruce worked on and perhaps that’s the biggest reason why it was great. Perfect ending to a series too. I’m feeling an uncharted binge soon 😂 But your opinion on the main character is completely valid. It’s not just about the character, it’s about pattern recognition. Neil Druckmann is absolutely obsessed with pushing his identity politics in your face, even if it At the expense of your best characters. Replaying Drakes Fortune just brings me back to the Naughty Dog that hooked me on PlayStation, the naughty dog I would defend against anyone stating that Uncharted was the best series ever… the main menu and theme brought me to tears the other day. It pains me that this company won’t ever be back. Anyways sorry for the novel lol. I’m just passionate as hell about the old ND 😂
@ same! I’m also a huge fan of Uncharted 3. It got more hate than deserved. I think 2 is better but 3 is still a masterpiece. It’s way better than you remember lol
Last week I did tri breaker and a racing indie title! I usually would only do 1-2 uploads a week. I have been doing everyday for almost 2 months. Some insider baseball, many of those indies just do not get the views and sadly it does come down to numbers at times, so this leads me to try different things to get some growth. I have thoughts on other stuff in gaming and I’m trying to present those here in the topical stuff. Right now I’m testing some of this stuff out
Judging by the retro-futuristic setting and the plot leaks, the audience for the game would have been men in their 30s. However, the character design is unappealing in general and especially towards that group. So my take is: Druckman is making a game for himself and expects the audience to just show up and "admire the stunning & brave ideas". Especially considering how ALL of the people who would have potentially called him out and helped shape a better game have long left Naughty Dog (or, in Amy's case, got pushed out). It's a "for modern audiences" game and will have a simular fate.
We're the target audience. We get mad/upset/annoyed and talk about these games so that they're on everyones minds. We gotta just accept their failures and move on, there are still some good games. Vote with your money.
There was a definite shift in narrative without amy henig around. Uncharted 4 was good but moreso from its visuals, tlou part 1 was exceptional with a great team behind it nut clearly something was missing with part 2. Whatever heretic prophet will be it will likely fall flat on all areas, hopefully we might be surprised for the better tho lol 😅
@@joethealternativegamer3935 thank you for the reply, now I understand. But I can guarantee you that no President will have impact on this modern nonsense. That is imposed from someone way bigger.
@@joethealternativegamer3935 I don't want to ruin your enthusiasm, but unfortunately we already know for sure. This madness will not change with politicians. I suggest you to take information about DEI and ESG so you will discover it by yourself. And maybe do a video about it 😉
With all the retro nostalgia bait in this trailer, my beef with Naughty Dog is why didn't they just lean into the retro all the way with matching graphics? Seriously, ditch the ultra realistic stuff coz you don't know how to make it look appealing at all anyway beyond the environments and just give us something that's properly retro and nostalgic (like Jak & Daxter). How much cooler could this have been if it was more like the anime featured on the TV? For pity's sake, even the MC from Dustborn looks better than this.
Who is this potential flop for? Easy, the same gamers who made Concord & Dragon Age Veilgard massive successes for 2024. Now if you excuse me, I need to go be depressed after finding Killzone has been reduced to just being paid skins for Helldivers 2. Boooooo.
Oh come on. You expect a space pirate to wear skimpy clothes and always have make up on? Either you're rage baiting or this channel just fell off. I used to love your content but now its all political. I'm not even from the west I dont even care about this stuff.
That doesn't invalidate the majority of the paying audience's opinion. Numbers of recent triple A releases that are like this shows people ARE sick of it. Wake up and smell the coffee. We want good games.
@@apocalypserik that’s actually not it at all. Where did I mention skimpy clothes or make up!? Look at Elena from the same company, she didn’t have either of those and again just a great character. Jordan doesn’t need to wear skimmy stuff nor have make up, she should look more feminine
It's not really about her appearance, it's more about the politics behind her appearance. In current day, identity politics is taking precedence over fun and people are getting tired of it. Also how can you talk about realism, when the game depicts such unrealistic space travel, robots, impractical laser swords and a bunch of other over the top Sci-Fi tropes? Why not make her hot and appealing to a bigger market? What is wrong with wanting to sell more copies? Again, nothing about this sci-fi looking game looks realistic, so who cares?
So a bald headed lesbian space pirate is more realistic? 😂 We don’t need Stellar Blade meets space exploration (although I’m sure that would sell like crazy). People would take character such as Faith (mirrors edge) and Elena fisher. I don’t think you are understanding the point. It’s more than how she looks. It’s more about the pattern being formed where you can tell instantly that the game will be shoving identity politics and political issues down your throat solely based on how the character looks. Gamers want escapism and enjoyment, not political trash shoved down their throats. I guarantee everyone stating that we are just “haters” would absolutely have a meltdown if video games forced biblical beliefs down your throat. It’s the same concept

Who's the target audience? It's obviously the Modern Audience
@@darthsol658 and who is that again lol
It's all the people playing Concord
Don't forget Druckman kicked an actual strong woman, Amy Hennig, out to create these fantasy "women"
Very true! What a talent she is!
I don't have confidence in her hair growing back. Druckman doesn't want to read the room, because like all of his similar minded companions, he wants to force his agenda.

Damn that drunkman is so woke, he want to fight for bald peoples right....DAMN you drunkman!! DAMN you!

...People that don't play video games.
🤣🤣🤣
It's amazing how smug, overconfident, arrogant and just truly unlikable they conveyed this character to be in just this short trailer.
Right!?
Remember folks. When people accuse you of the -isms, just say:
"I'm not the target audience."

Uncharted, perfection :)
@ literal perfection. Uncharted 2 is simply astounding
@ those 3 games! I can replay them all the time!
@ same! I’m also a huge fan of Uncharted 3. It got more hate than deserved. I think 2 is better but 3 is still a masterpiece. It’s way better than you remember lol
@ and most importantly 1!
It's wild that you pointed out the main character is based on Tati Gabrielle. She was so fine in You, I didn't even recognize her in this trailer.
Right!?
I joined the channel for indie reviews and to find new games, but now it's anti woke stuff all the time.

@@StodgyAyatollah thanks lol! Thumbnail Guy did a great job!
I agree with every word you said. Except one thing: what "Trump won" has to do with anything about that?
It was more a cheeky comment, like America is ready for a change in everything, hence the landslide election for him.
