yes Avatar 2 showed how much is important to take time and care in the depiction of the setting to make the experience immersive compared to assembly line products
@@ashunegi6216How hard is it to act like a normal, polite person? Spare yourself acting like an idiot, and spare people your ridiculous behavior. Grow up and be someone better! ********* About Hellblade 2, it seems like an incredible game and the love and dedication that this studio puts into what it does is noticeable. Congratulations Ninja Theory, I'm looking forward to seeing Senua again.
I will never forget my experience with hb1 and how much it blew me away. There was one moment when I was walking on a balance beam, pretty confidently, when a voice in Senua's head told me I wasn't going to make it. It completely threw me off balance; I've never forgotton how powerful that was, as a reminder that your negative thoughts can really affect you. Hb1 was a beautiful, fun, and emotional experience and I absolutely cannot wait for hb2. Thank you Ninja for putting so much thought into your art.
I'm so excited to walk with Senua once more. I really connected with her story in the first game and feel very attached. Im more excited for this than anything to date.
Thank you all so much, I cant wait to see what you've been working all these years on. I'll love it no matter what it looks like, I know all of you will deliver something truly incredible
@@jerico9263 Their "binaural audio" wasn't very "binaural" to me, and I have very good headphones. It just sounded like regular panning and the whole promo-videos about how they recorded things were unwarranted, making people think it was better than it is. - Wasn't a whole lot that impressed me about the sounds in the first game. I don't mean bad, but nothing that special either. - I mean, what, is that Druth-guy yapping in your ear like he's on a call on a one-sided Bluetooth-headset supposed to be "immersive" or something?... It got really tiresome very quickly. It made me reluctant to activate those stones. "DEM NORSEMEN THO!" - And the other voices in her head were alright, but the effect is not binaural.
@@michaelmonstar4276 Really? never played it yet. Why can't they use true binaural audio? Games did it back in the 90s like Half Life and Thief the Dark Project even with crudder implementations it was something new and exciting, used to good effect too.
Really happy to see these behind the scenes videos. Keep them coming and take all the time you need to make HellBlade 2 as amazing as you want it to be
damn COVID really held their development back hard. glad you guys found a way to face the challenges! can't wait to see the game! take as much time you need!
Such a shame. It's great to see that they're doing better and back on track though! I'll have to watch again when I get home cause I missed that part. I heard them say they were unable to get to Iceland because the government grounded flights, I didn't realize team members got sick :(
Yeah, Ninja Theory are gonna be the pioneers of next-gen graphics. Hellblade 2 and Project: Mara are gonna be some of the first video games with a truly next generation leap from Xbox One to Xbox Series.
You guys have always made nothing short of the most breathtaking video games of their time. From Heavenly Sword to Enslaved and beyond. You all have always been on a different level. Thank you.
Hellblade I was one of the most unique experiences I've ever had in any sort of fiction, and by the looks of it, the sequel might be just as impactful, if not more. Truly surreal, I'm wishing Ninja Theory the best.
Proud of you guys putting so much passion and love into Hellblade ll, super excited to see all of your guys hard work come to fruition. Thank you Ninja Theory team, I'm sure us fans wish you the best on your future endeavors.
I remember the first diaries a few years ago and before watching this video i was like "havent they done this already?" but now it makes sense. I am so stoked!
The level of hard work and attention to detail is incredible. I love to use of photography and systems to stay faithful to a story and the environment. Its inspiring and I truly makes me wish I could be apart of something like this. Thank you for giving us the ability to see your process and sharing the love Ninja Theory has for this project.
'Even in darkness, the wonder and beauty of the world never leaves. It's always there, just waiting to be seen again.' 🙏 Keep up the good work, and continue taking your time with yet another masterpiece! I can't wait.
Thank you so much to show us your development process at NinjaTheory. I’m looking forward embarking in this journey with you guys! Take as much time as you need👍
It took me too long to realize when that gamebuilt footage was being shown, it looked so real! I thought I couldn't get more excited about this game but you guys have proved me wrong. Thanks so much for sharing this behind the scenes view of things, can't wait to see more! And like others have said, take all the time you need. I'm willing to wait however long it takes for you guys to make the project exactly how you envision it, and I know it'll be worth all that time. The care and passion in this team is absolutely evident!
I see that sony at 5:33. You guys really go all out, this is fantastic. If there was ever a game company that I'd want to work for, it would be you guys. I love my photography too much to switch careers at the moment but man you guys make this stuff look really good.
Been on a big Heilung kick lately, love them so much, and it's all thanks to Ninja Theory. Can't wait to play and hear the soundtrack they're creating for the game!
It's great to have an update, I loved the first game and I can't wait to play the next stage in Senua's story. That said, I'm glad you're taking the time needed to make this game as good as it can possibly be.
Fantastic to hear the passion and the work you are putting into your project. In the world where all the other big companies are focusing on how much money they can make, watching this makes appreciate the smaller companies that deserve all the praise in the world for the product you are making. Can't wait. Make it perfect. Onward Ninja Theory.
I was in Iceland back in August 2022 and can't wait to see some of these locations I saw in real life. In their map, I saw a dot on the blue Lagoon area south of Reykjavik. That place is next level. Guess they gonna put that in the game as well, even though it's not really 10th century.
When I say Hellblade is in my top 5 favourite games ever and Senua is my favourite female protagonist ever I mean it. Hellblade Senua's Sacrifice is absolutely incredible, I've played it atleast once a year since it's release (also a big fan of Heavenly Sword and Enslaved) Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 is the reason I bought an X-Box, please take your time with this sequel, I have full faith in the team at Ninja Theory. Love you guys 🖤 can't wait to see more of the dev diaries
Good to see so much love and attention in your game really waiting for it courage hoping we would have some development diary on project mara too also really hyped by that one
Absolutely insane work 💜😍! The first Hellblade was already an incredible game, one of the most original and atmospheric journey I ever played. I can't wait for this sequel. I use to say that this game will do for the Xbox what God of War did for Sony.
Went to Iceland last year and it's a gorgeous country. I believe Death Stranding environments were inspired by there as well. Can't wait to see what it looks like.
Please let there be a VR option in this one too. Loved it in the first one. Looking forward to upgrading my PC just for this game and giving up on food and housing to make that possible. In VR you do not need a roof over your head. Just a picnic bench and a generator.
Look I have to speak 🗣️ up on this to the developers ,I want y'all to know I own well over 1,000 video games and yes some of the Best triple AAA titles but I will tell y'all right now I own an Xbox One X and the first Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, and it was Xbox One X enhanced In 4k and I'm telling you right now out of all my games I have never in my life seen the character/realism perfection of Senua, and it blows my mind the realism! And on top of it the game was awesome.. I truly believe your all's company should make character models or remasters/remakes for other companies/games because that games immersion and just everything is legendary! I had to put this out here .. And everybody else .. I bs you not, literally that first game is what dreams are made of, put headphones on Play it in 4K, and listen carefully, That game has literally helped me in real life. To the developers Thank you.. excited for the next one 💯 stay blessed 🙏
Still not sure how you're gonna top the first game but at the very least, it's reassuring to see the attention to detail being paid to the environment and setting.
Please, take your time with this game. Seriously, we are not in a hurry. This is too amazing to be launched in a hurry like some studies have been doing.
Can you imagine the more useless job than to be a Iceland landscape photographer? That island have not a single bad angle in the untouched by human parts. You can shot a photo blinfolded and it will be always a top notch material for a postcard. :D
I've never been more hyped for a game in my entire life, please take as much time as you need Ninja Theory you're doing amazing!!
yes Avatar 2 showed how much is important to take time and care in the depiction of the setting to make the experience immersive compared to assembly line products

This is exactly what the industry needs, a well made game. I'm looking forward to this
I didn't see any gameplay. - I also barely saw any in the first game...
I’m so excited for Hellblade 2!! This game is gonna be gorgeous. Hope it has a photo mode right out the gate.
Yes! Photo mode becomes an integral part of the experience when it is available in a game.😃

The work you guys do on the Hellblade series is absurdly beautiful. Thank you so much.
The passion for this character and her story is amazing.
I'm so excited to walk with Senua once more. I really connected with her story in the first game and feel very attached. Im more excited for this than anything to date.
Words cannot express my love for Senua and my immeasurable excitement for this game oh my god i am so hype, this is gonna be stunning
Thank you all so much, I cant wait to see what you've been working all these years on. I'll love it no matter what it looks like, I know all of you will deliver something truly incredible
I hope you guys spend a ton of time on the sound design as well! This looks so awesome!

Ninja Theory is the greatest dev team hands down. Love their dedication so so much!
Damn, I can't wait for this game! I absolutely adored Senua's Sacrifice.
Weird playing Death Stranding and then this being an Icelander. Recognizing every place, it's quite surreal experience lol.
After Death Stranding and Hellblade 2 - I really wish I could visit your homeland.
This was unbelievably interesting and thoughtful. This has significantly increased my hype for this game. I can't wait to see more!

Love that they're doing these development diaries again like with the first game. I still re-watch those ones. Can't wait to see the progress.
So excited for the game! Can’t wait for more news!
Been on a big Heilung kick lately, love them so much, and it's all thanks to Ninja Theory. Can't wait to play and hear the soundtrack they're creating for the game!
Cheers, team. Your work is exceptional and I’m blown away at your striving for proto-realism here.

Those diaries are so good that i think i can wait for the actual game even longer just to get more videos lol
I hope we get to see project Mara soon too
Im going in Iceland this September so this video and the game itself make me more hyped. Cool to have a map of your material trip
They smashed it out of the park the first time. The expectations are very high. They gonna do it again, I believe in NT, I'm confident.
I'm expecting for the return of Senua, take the time your need it for made the better sequel posible.
Saludos desde México 🇲🇽.
Tremendous production value. I can't wait to play Hellblade II.
Take all the time you need for this game. Just make sure to drop a demo close to release!
I realy love to see development of games ♡ thank you for sharing all this
I was in Iceland back in August 2022 and can't wait to see some of these locations I saw in real life. In their map, I saw a dot on the blue Lagoon area south of Reykjavik. That place is next level. Guess they gonna put that in the game as well, even though it's not really 10th century.
That area has now had an volcanic eruptions twice. It's a really energetic place.
Take your sweet time with it guys
we will wait ❤
great games take time

As always going that extra mile. Nicely done.

It was, Im Icelandic. Truly surreal running around or driving motorcycle where you've been in real life lol.

Best game by u guys was Bleeding Edge imo and my favorite game of all time, but Hellblade is one of kind! Can’t wait.
Great and really impressive job guys, thanks for sharing
I couldn't be more excited about this game!!
Very much looking forward to this 👍
awesome! we need the music diary now lets go heilung!
6:15 - "So here's this giant enemy troll..."

Photo telemetry scenery and the power of the consoles to display that texture image quality
