Alright, Let's Talk About Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet | NEWS, Internet Hate, & More

[@dimasta9385]

Cowboy bebop, Akira’s vibes clearly. All that Guardian of the Galaxy comparisons kinda shows not enough cultural knowledge most gamers have

[@TheTom20]

They just want to call it concord 2.0 so they find arguments that fit that

[@SpicyKumquat]

not to mention just how much amazing content there is that even inspired cowboy bebop. sergio leone and akira kurosawa films or an earlier anime like space adventure cobra. and neil druckman is very well-read and knowledgeable and has proven this in the last of us series and uncharted 4. he tends to make a lot of references and parallels to a lot of older art as well as real world historical events. a lot of these people are proving either their age or their understanding of the mediums they're so vocal in. I'm not saying everyone needs to be excited for this game, but actively hating on it is pathetic.

[@SuperFlashDriver]

The ones I thought up of were "The last starfighter" and "Gradius". But Cowboy Bebop would have been the last one on my mind, whereas if you bring that up, might as well bring in the 1975 show "Tekkaman: The Space Knight" about robots fighting in space if you ask me.

[@Fyrapan90]

The issue is not whether you liked or disliked the trailer; the issue is that I am tired of seeing so much online toxicity and hate these days. It feels like people do it just for the sake of it. Why can't we have normal discussions and reactions without so much toxicity and hate?

[@e3vL1]

@negative949 a lot of games have female protagonists. You don't see people losing their minds when Samus was revealed to be a woman at the end of Metroid thinking they're playing a male character the whole time. In tomb raider you're basically playing a Mary sue, or did you get distracted with pixelated boobs?

[@dw8106]

⁠@@e3vL1Calling Lara a Mary Sue is kind of a crazy stretch, especially referring to the survivor trilogy but even in the older games Lara can most certainly fail. Non-canon deaths aside she gets full on captured in 2 of the games and the premise of the fourth one is that she in her hubris unleashes a god hellbent on destruction. And then even for Samus, there was definitely shock/outrage at Samus being a girl there just wasn’t as much- it also just wasn’t as easily documented because.. it was the 80s. TL;DR: Right line of thinking, bad examples

[@chillwill7]

The Porsche and addias logos were off putting to say the least. I also have doubts about this mc after what they did to ellie. But the intro and end of this trailer were really good imo and her sword looked pretty cool lol. Can't say I'm excited for the game, but I'm keeping my eye on it at least

[@mattmiltenberger145]

I'll be honest. I already had a feeling before the game was announced before we had any indication that it was a thing, I had a feeling that most people were going to dump on it for one reason of another just because It's Neal Druckman and Naughty Dog. I genuinely thought that anything ND puts out people were going to have a fit. It was going to be an uphill battle because of TLOU II, the remasters and remakes. So the real question I got to ask is, is it really the trailer for the game that people are getting pissy about? Or is it something else and they are just nit picking anything and everything because of stuff that's been building up for years now? As far as how Naughty Dog should've responded to this reaction, I'm sorry, but that's a hard thing to say or even come up with a solution. I don't blame with them for turning off comments on their channel. Because there is no real response to take. Are they just supposed to scrap the whole game that they've been working on for 4 years? Cause pretty much they would have to do that to appease to these people. Ask yourself, what would you do? I don't think you would have any clue how to handle it. especially over a single cinematic trailer. Now for me, I'm interested in this game. It checks off a lot of boxes for me. I understand that that isn't the case for everyone and that is fair. But it's only a trailer. That being said, the reactions to this trailer have been completely ridiculous, I don't understand it. Even though I predicted it, for what was show, its unnecessarily overboard.

[@PGM991]

as a customer, i CANNOT judge from final product because it's mean I have to buy it first. i have judge BEFORE final product to decide if it's worth buying it. wait for review from channel i trust.

[@Cloud-ql3oy]

THANK U for not having a racebaiting hate review. God I'm tired of toxicity. Why isn't it woke when it's the usual white male main character? The game looks GOOD! I'm very confident in the same studio that made LastOfUS. My only hope is a costume change. She looks Black American and asian. Black Americans have a big culture that has an abundance of hairstyles so y go bald lol.

[@Elwood128]

It's not woke when it's the usual white guy character because woke people hate white men, that's why they had a butch trans ma'am kill Joel in Last of Us 2.

[@SuperFlashDriver]

Because that's what is called "Tradition". When that tradition is broken or altered, that's where the hate comes from. Many industries were male dominant, so seeing female side of things is what causes the males to have to shit all over the feminisms side of things. It happens and the best many can do is be with people that share the same viewpoint as the ones who doesn't complain. But for this game, I don't have any interest in these companies since the 1990s and early 2000s, so seeing stuff like this continuing the 1980s trend is getting tiring for me. Where's taking place in the 1970s, how about the 1950s America or even the 1990s and 2000s eras of tech, culture, and the world wide web. How about another sequel to the 2001 game Majestic??? But it goes to show that unless you make your own product, people will continue to complain seeing their games go down the drain sadly.

[@mattappl3119]

4 years of literally remastering and pc porting their ps4 games, and this trailer did not excite me. Mainly because GOTG kinda overdid the space 80s nostalgia thing. Plus, the lack of gameplay and returnal having a similar premise doesn't help

[@JADub87]

I think it'll be okay. ND has never made a bad game. I loved TLOU2, say what you will about the story (I thought it was dope), but the gameplay was awesome. I've been gaming for over 3 decades & never have I ever judged a game off of the sex of the main character. A lot of "men" these days need help. ND has every right to cut the comments off especially in this era where people confuse criticism with harassment/disrespect. I was watching the video game awards with my son & they were wildin' in the comment section. I turned the comments off & we enjoyed the show. These dudes that live on the Internet don't have a code nor do they respect anyone or anything...that is until they log off then it's crickets.

[@tekashihellsing3330]

I genuinely can't understand the hate it's getting, we haven't even seen anything from the game yet and people are calling it woke and saying it's gonna flop, all because of the character design which stupid, at least wait until we've seen gameplay and other things before hating it I myself wanna see more of the game itself before I judge it, but I'm cautiously optimistic and hoping to see more.

Butch women… Returnal… butch woman… ghost of yotei… butch woman… fairgames…. lead butch woman leader. Forspoken … annoying woman complaining… concord full of uglified butch women… even marathon had what??? a woman in the trailer… subtle since helmeted but clearly a woman… Tangent : Veilguard: butch condescending trans acting like a man in taash… clearly an Indian financed game since taash clearly modeled to look Indian. And wizard chick also Indian and Isabella retconned into Indian face from a white brunette. And this game has an Indian actor. No doubt financed with Indian money gotten from Microsoft and Google both with Indian CEOs… No offense to India or Indians but, I’m thinking there’s a lot of Indian propaganda infiltrating gaming due to Microsoft influence(since half of microsoft employees are Indians) and sheer population of India that every studio wants to seem to tap into. And honestly, I don’t trust Indian motives and propaganda. They always fence-sit world politics to gain profits, don’t support Ukraine so they can buy Russian oil, be friendly to USA but join BRICS, and don’t care what’s right or wrong and have no morals. Far worse than China ever was imao. Back to topic: Don’t be disingenuous about not seeing the butch woman who might be lesbian and superior to men trope shoved in everyone’s face…. You see it, but want to champion Naughty Dog or PlayStation, because you want an idol to worship… same as Bethesda fanboys worshipping Todd.. or new Vegas fanboys worshipping avowed and outer worlds… or BioWare fanboys buying up 1.5 million copies of the worst game in recent memory in veilguard… there are even concord fanboys STILL. Championing/white knighting is always bad for the studios involved… Dragon Dogma 2 fanboys wanted “the same but more.” Capcom gave it to them and the game promptly sputtered and lost all popularity… fanboy power. You championing Naughty dog won’t do a thing for this game… or the studio… only hasten its destruction… People are sick of the woke and many who hated trump and still hate him, even voted for him, because they’re that sick of it and they are the majority! You’re either trolling, clueless or blind if you’re claiming you don’t see the pattern. Even GTA is becoming Woke. Even UN is getting involved and want to censor Japan. I’m not anti lgbqt or women and actually for their rights but up to a point. My best friend is a lesbian, and I live in Thailand land of ladyboys and if you have even a single friend, you have a trans friend too as a friedn of a friend or sibling of a friend…. Not against woke entirely… BUT, When they try to shove it and force their beliefs on everyone, trans men in women’s sports and bathrooms and kids allowed to start transitioning without parental consent… dictating everyone change their spoken language to suit them… dictating a whole class of words and behaviors to suit their sensibilities, it not only crosses a line but actually harms their own rights because there will be backlash! Every action has an equal and opposite reaction… it’s just the law of the universe??? These woke dev studios are harming trans and women’s rights, not helping! And your disingenuous take is a part of it, a bit of fuel feeding the fire.

[@kwk111]

For me the 80's anime inspired aesthetic is incomplete without the main character having cool anime inspired hair. If that is customizable then I'm much more likely to buy this. If not, then I'm out because I don't wanna have to look at the back of her bald head for the length of the whole game.

[@livewireredb.9953]

@kwk111 I saw so many different character models online that looked sooo much better. Particularly one with a hot Asian look.

I agree. If there's a male character included, I would pick it. When it comes to female characters, it's a 50/50. And unless I see more stuff from this game, or better yet, released fully once launched, that's when the critical stuff comes out.

[@WHIKKEDDDD]

for me, its just generic looking. the cast seems solid and the in engine stuff looks really good; but without gameplay - the writing and general idea of it seems pretty mediocre. I want to see more. 5 years into dev and they didn't show us any gameplay? sad times editing since people lack a lot of critical thinking; this has literally nothing to do if the games gonna be woke or not or bad or not 😭 literally stating my general opinion, we’re allowed to see things differently :).

[@magnusalexander2965]

Something that works slightly against this trailer is that so many companies show CG trailers that look amazing, whereas from what I gathered this is an actual cut-scene running on a PS5. There were several cut-scenes from TLOU2 that people assumed were CG trailers, so they have the pedigree to make me believe it (whereas the Cyberpunk trailers were not representative of the game, re: Withcer 4) and if that's the case then it's easily the most impressive-looking game that's been shown off except for GTA6.

These people don’t care about games or things that actually matter in games. These culture warriors are everything they claim the other side to be.

[@alexsabre3219]

Seems very uninspired off the jump and at best seems to be unaware of how something like this will land given the climate in gaming after Concord. The countless games that lately get the identity politics label. Fairly or not. Naughty dog has to be aware of how divisive their last release was and how scrutinized their new release and IP would be. Right? This game could be great but it’s already at a disadvantage because they seem to have like ignored all of that on the basis of this one cinematic teaser. I hope it’s good, but people don’t live in a vacuum and it’s really hard to separate all that stuff and look at this trailer and not think this could be another poorly received game. Again.. way too little to go on right now and we need to see more, but first impressions are a huge part of a games success.

Guarantee these same idiots wouldn't say shit if it was a GTA6 trailer with no gameplay and were already hearing GTA6 is going woke so u better keep the same energy if u want to say woke as an excuse just because your mad of what happened to tlou2. Plus a lot of these KZbinrs like Griffin talking down on the trailer is always playing call of duty a game that is the same old shit rehashed every year like Madden so I don't want to hear you're bullshit opinion when you enjoy play the same rehash trash. Naughty dog will definitely deliver that's 100 percent facts.

I get what you're saying and agree to an extent. It's just I'm tired of not seeing much for trailers. Especially the reveal trailer I wanted more that's all, especially when they've been working on it for 4 years. Now I will say I completely agree with you on that last part. So much of the grifter crowd or whatever you want to call them are pathetic. They play like 3 games, couldn't pass a trivia test to save their lives and yet speak for gamers. I speak for myself and that's it, you and anyone else can have your opinion, AND I have played like, no joke thousands of games. So hopefully you're not talking about me lol

[@KingKarimYT]

This is the first trailer of the game - a Teaser. To me it’s fine they don’t show gameplay yet especially for a teaser of a Narative Driven game because it can spoil a lot of stuffs. The point of the first trailer is mostly to be as cryptic as possible to want people to explore more on the game and I think it’s working. Because if not people wouldn’t be making a video or comment they wants to see gameplay. Don’t understand why people are mad at this.

Look I have no problem with people being mad at Neil for the bullshit he did to Joel with tlou2 but this is not a last of us sequel so I'm sure he learned his lesson that killing of a main character can truly comeback to bite you in you're ass and he's feeling that effect and he deserves that shit but to not see any gameplay and to throw the rest of the team under the bus because of Neil's screw up in tlou2 imo is not fair to the whole team as people haven't given it a chance yet. Now if it turns out crap then I'll join in on calling Neil out but we should all be just happy they are bringing something new they haven't done before and imo this is when naughty dog is at their best. I'm still kinda bitter off that but they are so lucky the game mechanics in tlou2 was so bad ass that I played it the end and even though I was pissed I can't sit there and lie to people and say the game itself gameplay wise and graphically was not impressive at all cause that would be a lie. Neil screwed up the game with his choice of narrative and forcing the player to play it the way he wanted it and not give the player a choice or even options. Sorry for the long wall of text.

Everything around naughty dog is super toxic. They are one of the best and people root against the best. They are perceived as woke. They killed Joel. People want current naughty dog to be thier favorite version of old naughty dog ( jack uncharted whatever) this guy wanted to know what naughty dog was making and now complains he didn't see enough. It will be good maybe great garunteed. You don't know anything so you make a video about KZbin discourse that is obviously skewed by everything I just mentioned. KZbin is such a gross circle jerk.

[@rrice3142]

The problem is after all this time, people want gameplay. Particularly from naughty dog, but honestly from the industry as a whole. I think everyone is sick of CG trailers

[@Cakebattered]

Gamers claimed they were tired of CGI trailers back during the days of E3. Yet those gamers still get excited by them. I don't get it. Split Fiction was the type of game reveal gamers swore they wanted, yet CGI trailers still have all the mindshare.

I think my first impressions of it isn't positive, I mean for the first EVER trailer the first thing we saw is basically ads for IRL companies,, fiction is fiction I'd rather they make their own companies than having them shove real ones in our face...

[@Leopez02]

It's so awesome to see a new Naughty Dog game and it's the space game I really love scifi games that aren't Star Wars or Star Trek just their own can't wait i'm so excited for Intergalactic coming to PS5!

[@kadencampbell8471]

Everything Naughty Dog has released has never been disappointing. Comparing this to a full fledged franchise in Uncharted and TLOU (10+ years franchises) and saying this is gonna be underwhelming is idiotic. The hate is ridiculous.

[@ThatZenkiS14]

the game looks interesting, all that other bs is just that. let more stuff release before saying its trash.

[@MrHazz111]

If it was any other studio I wouldn't have given this trailer the time of day (Im not a fan of the 80s retro Guardians of the Galaxy shit), but because it's Naughty dog, I know- 1. Its not a CGI trailer, I suspect the game will look exactly like it, if it was any other studio the game probably would look nothing like it. 2. I trust Naughty Dog to deliver a great game with a deep and fully realised narrative. TLOU2 also has fantastic stealth gameplay regardless of what you think of the story.

[@hotcoldman77]

Well said. I'm beyond pumped for this. I've been hoping ND made a scifi game since Jak and Daxter 3 20 years ago and seems my prayers were answered lol. I just hope it's not linear. The scifi world should invoke curiosity and exploration. An open world should work for this game. Something like Star Wars Outlaws with the craftmanship of Naughty Dog. C'mon easily best game of all time lol

I’m hyped for it, love the retro futuristic vibes and I’ve never been disappointed by a nd game before so that’s a factor too. Every game nowadays has to deal with the basement dwellers, they’re out there calling every game woke be it GTA 6 or Witcher 4 or this, one has to wonder what exactly they’re playing.

[@pete6705]

My prediction is that it will be woke and have a lot of manly women and lesbians, but it will also be a great game

[@obredaanps3]

Woke really just means anything nowadays.

[@pete6705]

@ well the 4 main characters of their last game were lesbian, lesbian, trans, and a very manly woman. The trailer for this game only shows a butch lesbian, and a short haircut woman with an eye patch that looks like she could be a lesbian. The sci-fi action genre is a vast majority straight male audience, so I get why some people aren’t happy with the characters. But character design is just one part of the game, I’m sure the rest of the game will be amazing.

[@Majeika1976]

This is one I will keep an eye on and look to see what it is actually about. I enjoy Last of Us and Uncharted. I like the Retro look to it (obs now it's confirmed it is set in the 1980s) The most annoying thing to me in this trailer was the amount of very obvious product placement - I don't want that in a game and especially something I pay for with my own money. After 4-5 years this game would be expected to be the final production stage, no idea how many of those 250 have been working on it for the entire time

[@davidgomes969]

The same way I ask you, what have you seen from the Witcher 4 cinematic that get you excited? It's a sequel to a stablished IP and has Ciri, right? Nothing else Split Fictiom shown a lot of gameplay it's different if it was a cinematic too u probably wouldn't feel half as interested

The game piqued my interest. Not sure why all the hate but I shouldn’t be surprised with how toxic the internet is. If the main character isn’t your stereotypical white male protagonist “ or some super hot chick straight out of a Dead or Alive game it automatically gonna be awful. We really need to stop judging games before we see gameplay and some plot. Naughty Dog is at least putting out a new IP and I’m glad for that. Give the developers a chance. Hundreds of people worked on this and already people hating before the game is even released. People seriously need to get a life. Smh

I think the Uncharted and Last of Us IPs as a whole are very average in every regard. So im kinda sick of hearing about both of them for the past decade or so. In saying that, its Naughty Dog. So ill always automatically be intrigued in hearing about anything new from them. (They're like Rockstar, I don't care about GTA5 and RDR2 and think they're pretty average with bloated reputations but i always be intrigued on what theyre doing. When a new game drops its like an event) Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophecy is an awful name but i think people need to relax on the woke stuff. Ill try to be open minded on this game.

Personal Fact: The video game franchises I would play the most under Naughty Dog’s portfolio are Jak & Daxter and The Last of Us

[@jaydeeao]

The Naughty Dog name is doing a lot of heavy lifting. For me, the character isn't likeable. She's egotistical, entitled, a brat, and doesn't care about anyone else other than herself. Her agent clearly cares about her and the entire time the main character showed nothing but contempt and treated her like trash. And yes, when you go back and look at the Uncharted and The Last of Us trailers there is something likeable about Drake, Joel, and Ellie even though their might have been aspects of their personality that wasn't the greatest. But they were likeable. And them shutting of comments is them just closing themselves off into their own echo chamber and nit willing to even try to listen to the people that are offering actual constructive criticism. They are literally mimicking the characters personality in the game.

[@djstef4549]

Also this game seemed very weird, it visually looks nice but I agree I don't know what the vibe of this game was supposed to be and when I saw it in space I kind of thought of concord and don't think they showed anything of substance.

I disagree with what you said about woke elements not hurting a game. Because when game developers focus on putting stuff like that in a game it takes away from other aspects. Asmongold just released a good video explaining it better than I can. I forgot the title but it’s something like ugly characters in video games. It’s about 17 minutes. It’s worth a watch and it’s exactly how I personally feel. Now there are exceptions. Like the trans person in hogwarts legacy affected the game 0 percent. If they can insert stuff like that just to give people a voice or whatever I’m fine. But normally when a game wants to put woke stuff in it, the game ends up being trash because they are trying to appeal to either to many people or they are trying to appeal to the wrong audience.
