This was such a great analysis, finally! No woke-antiwoke bullshit, just talking about the story telling on this video and pointing out so many interesting details. Thanks for this, lately finding good and interesting content has became a challenge and these videos deserves so much more views!

[@sorarockss93]

At 6:18 she picks up her jacket and puts it on, on screen, while in engine. That's really good attention to detail and I bet it took ages to animate.

[@famedset1162]

Yeah if you play the last of us 2 commentary, they talk about how whenever someone is putting on or taking off a shirt, how it’s always the hardest and longest process to get it right. They probably had 50 people working on that one jacket

[@Ashy94]

Genuine breath of fresh air! A really great analysis as always - excited to learn more about this game I think there is going to be so much to analyse when this game launches.

[@ilakya]

Before watching. I knows anyone who look deep will notice these: -shaving is her routine -the room is messy but there's an investigation chart so she has a goal and she ignore anything else -the conversations shows she's a daredevil and doesn't care what others said -that also reflect on her appearance of no makeup and not care for hair styling -yet she has her style of enjoying things that has the 90s style -and must mentioning the top notch facial animations or performance capture. It's so perfect. Means they're not joking around for story telling by using human expression. -a lot of brand names came up. They has to spend some money on these.

[@NoraTsukyoEchoes]

But Jordan is arrogant and I don't want to play her...

[@SaraBearRawr0312]

Hair is a very dynamic and personal aspect of who a person is and what they're going through or have already gone through. Hair can be a source of pride or interpreted beauty and can be a deeply intrinsic part of ones identity and as that identity evolves or moves in flux so too can markers such as the style or choice to remove it entirely. At the same time there is the practical aspect of hair where one may be in a situation where that hair becomes untenable or even impractical to their job, mission or way of life - perhaps her scars cause it to grow unevenly, perhaps she sees it as something for an enemy to grab onto during a fight, perhaps its just too cumbersome to deal with in terms of the upkeep and hygiene when dealing with the harsh and possibly dirty environments she navigates. There are plenty of women who prefer the the shaved or buzz cut look for a variety of the reasons above.

[@melxb]

exactly people are so small minded prejudging this without having full context and not even paying attention to all the environmental story telling and character nuances giving off possible explanations as to why things may be the way they are, like her keeping her hair short, could be a chapter in her life that brings pain, given she had hair when she was with her crew and now she isn't with them and has scars, could be a way of trying to forget/not be reminded, regardless it has me intrigued to find out and it looks cool, i think she also looks cool, her expressions alone say a lot which is good acting and animating...more people like this channel should speak out in respect to the artistry if not the great work devs like naughty dog are putting in

[@Blag_Cog]

Personally I'm really intrigued with this character because of the idea that she was in a crew and it seems like shes looking for them. It seems shes willing to go to dangerous space just to find them. The fact she had hair in the picture but is shaving her head now, as you said maybe its because of the scars ruining her hair growth or similar. I'm also a sucker for the retro-futurism "product placement" stuff. It looks so nostalgic, tactile and analog even though its sci-fi its retro sci-fi.

[@melxb]

or shaving it to forget who she was because she could be hunting them down maybe she was betrayed, we can only guess

Attention to detail and gives you a sense of scale by contrasting the shades of the planet and how big the space is also love you pointed out WHY her hair is being shaved because the picture on her bulletin board shows her happy and with her crew and she has her hair. maybe she is trying to move on from that past, maybe someone wronged her, or something to do with the scars (maybe she doesnt mind SHOWING her scars). its not as simple as "oh shes bald" and people wanna be up in arms about it lol

​@@pse2020What is wrong with you guys actually? Do you not understand what's being said by gamers or are you just disingenuous? Who ever talks about characters being pornographic or anything like that? Lol what is the point of not making an attractive character? What does it add to the product? Let me clear it up for you, the main reason for people reacting negatively is that they actually pay attention to gaming unlike the tourists that show up for story games like this then claim everyone else is uninformed. Neil Cuckman is the main reason people are hating on this, he is pretentious and ruin TLOU2 or this specific agenda of the "strong female" character with masculine characteristic. People are tired of devs making masculine female characters in games and movies too, all the "woke" games failed this year, let's see next year, GTA 6 will be successful no matter what even if it's filled with this stuff, but every other game that has tried this has failed. So yea it's okay, keep saying that people are weird or whatever for liking attractive characters, we will keep being non-buy-nary and the devs can keep losing their jobs. The company you are defending is one the worst in the industry in terms of crunch btw.

[@kwk111]

I don't hate it, I'm cautiously optimistic, but that sarcastic straw sucking bit was pretty cringe. I'm a bit worried about the main character having an obnoxious personality, cause otherwise this looks pretty cool and I want the main character to be cool as well.

[@SinApex]

This looks interesting at the very least. It's hard to be SUPER hype since we don't know much besides this cinematic trailer, but I like Naughty Dog's work and I really like Tati Gabrielle's acting work. It feels like it's gonna be another well-acted narrative game like TLOU with lots of detail and performance capture work, but with a more action sci-fi setting, so I'm intrigued. I'm paying no mind to the people who don't like her look because like... she looks a whole lot like the actress that plays her... Black women with shaved heads are real people, it's not all that uncommon and if your complaint is that it's "unattractive" then that's your problem, not mine.

[@axlm.808]

The design of the interior of the ship has big Syd Mead vibes (white panels with rounded edges, big square buttons, geometric shapes, primary colors, etc) It reinforces that late 70's to early 90's sci-fi style (2001, Alien, Blade runner...)

100% i intially thought blade runner game reveal, retro futuristic aesthetic never gets old to me, wish it was our reality lol but good thing we have games like this and those with the artistry that produce them where we can live out that fantasy

[@JustGromski]

Haven’t started watching the video yet, but as someone who definitely hates when characters are particularly unattractive for no reason etc I see no issue with anything shown character wise. Sure her appearance does not appeal to me but it doesn’t offend me either. The character didn’t come off as unlikable like most characters now days that are both unlikeable AND un attractive. Likability matters the most, as long as she isn’t an arrogant snarky asshole its fine. She just comes off as no bs knows what she wants and acts accordingly without being offensive for no reason.

Cowboy bebop was the first thing I felt when this trailer started. I'm digging the vibes of this and I can't wait to hear more about this game man

[@SubTXT_]

Great analysis. On rewatches of this trailer, I picked up on similar aspects of the character. It actually makes me even more hopeful about the game. Because the trailer is already aesthetically drowning in references and homages, I was a little underwhelmed that the character itself looked to be fitting just a prototypical badass bounty hunter archetype, but I think there is a lot more going on to her and the story than just that. I adore Naughty Dog games and feel they have some of the best writing in the industry, so I was thirsting for a little bit more of their own unique twist on such familiar Sci-Fi stuff. Some of the hints that this new persona we're seeing may be a bit of a change in character makes me even more interested in that shift of who this character was before this moment and how that'll make the story even richer.

Abby was leaked, a lot of people don't remember that... She was not shown, and marketing acted like Ellie and Joel were the front runners. They've dropped that for intergalactic and this lead will put off so many more norms than you think, and games don't do well off of niche audiences. I guess we can come back here when it releases and the market decides. 👍

Good video. Notice also the writing on the robots armor is the same as the text in the beginning. She also has tattoos on the back of her arms of those anime characters. Possibly having something to do with her. Black man and Asian woman. Blade runner had product placement, so they are also copying that to a certain degree. You also see 5 chess pawns with a few on their side. Indicates that she has already taken out some of the other five aces. She also has a queen chess piece tattooed on her. Some of these analysis are from the kingthrash KZbin channel. The actress is attractive. She’s been in Uncharted and the Sabrina show on Netflix. You take any attractive woman , no makeup and shaved head. She’s going to go down a few notches. This game will be huge. No matter how much those anti woke guys whine and cry. All the gaming channels I watch are so tired of it.

This looks so incredibly aesthetically pleasing. The 80’s anime cyberpunk vibe is so delicious to me. All of the important character details in that one scene was beautiful. I like Jordan. She’s cool and I think I will care about the reasons she is willing to put herself in danger like she is. Putting on the Pet Shop Boys was a nice touch, too. I wonder where the scars came from. I wonder what happened to the aces.

[@everardotorres1066]

The mirror at the beginning could be representative of her inner self reflection which is a common thing especially in sci-fi. Also, I wonder what the relationship between two characters is? Jordan def seems colder than the bounty broker who seems more tender.

[@ruumynes2910]

Im a sucker for music and the music beat is what got me to look at the teaser. I heard the music from the other room and came running. As far as what's in the teaser; it looks intriguing. She's got a search board and she is willing to put her life in danger to find someone. Did they betray her or do they have something she needs? I want to know. My media world revolves around anime and manga so the aesthetics are pleasing, but I'm not high maintenance when it comes to things like that. I hope the story is rich. I'll probably play for that along with the music. NIN is one my favorite bands. Looks great so far. Going on my list.

[@fenixa2z936]

The game looks so amazing and they really haven’t shown much. I’m pretty sure this will be out in 2026 and not next year, sadly. Going to be a crazy wait. And now, this means The Last of Us 3 graphics will be so damn good since it’ll probably be a PS6 game.

[@khalidamajoud4114]

I genuinely keep coming to this teaser/trailer...Almost hypnotic...😮

[@TeaTimeRumble]

Im really glad ND is doing more with their art I like Uncharted and TLOU, but theyre really grounded. Uncharted does have some excellent location design, and none of the games look "bad", but its very "yeah". Its what i expect alot of the time, or familiar. Uncharted especially, despite being able to have fictional ancient temples and set pieces.. its not new. Its just building on what Indiana Jones and Tomb Raider were doing. This is visually more interesting, and honestly kind of close to Jak and Daxter, specifically Jak 2. The bold vibrant colours against grey/black/muted colours. The way the moon and planet looked, the ship design is this very angular manga style, the weapon and tech having a bright red glow as opposed to what we would usually see as blue or white, the enemy design especially feels like it couldve come from Jak 2. Its not as far as i wish they took it, but its definitely closer to where i would want it.

[@insahnay]

Yes!! I noticed this too. This is their first attempt at true fantasy since Jak and Daxter, which will always be my favorite series ever. The studio has of course vastly changed since, but I'd love to see the inspirations they may take from those games.

The eye patch is inspired by Kurt Russel's character in "Escape from New York" trust me. It's not official but I guarantee you it is. It's also a 80s movie, cyberpunkish vibes, and it influenced the look of big boss in MGS. Confirmed by kojima. Last of us 2 took inspiration from mgsv2 and phantom pain, so I just know Neil got it from there.

[@jaydeeao]

For me the way she is written and her personality is annoying. Clearly her agent cares about her and her wellbeing but she treats her like trash and doesn't even acknowledge that, which makes her come of as entitled and a brat. I will admit that we know very little about this challenge so maybe her personality is ultimately likeable and I'm about to get on board with her motivation and why she's doing what she's doing. For right now, the Naughty Dog name is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

I just wanna say I just do not vibe with the urban streetwear aesthetic for space sci fi (great for urban sci fi) the Puffy jacket feels so contemporary that it makes the entire outfit feel so uninteresting, it doesn't draw my attention. Especially the pants The look with the undershirt where I can see her tattoos whic is immediatly 100 times more attention grabbing to me than her Knight-symbol jacket-. There is such a saturation of character designs like this on the market that giving her no face at all would make her stand out more than beeing any person Everyone has seen Akira, character designs inspired by Akira are a dime a dozen. Which fucking sucks because I love South-East Asian representation in my media. We need more of that and having it in a big ticket game like this is so fucking big. So her outfit beeing run of the mill and nothing about the design grabbing my attention just makes me not want to play the game, she doesn't have the IT factor that a company like Naughty Dog usually manages to put out Like there is the 80s pleather colourful jacket She has a little pouch on her back and those light-up sneakers but unless the sneakers literally have like movement trails that are integral to the combat system I don't think there is anything interesting that is going to be going on Her sword is a rectangle for crying out loud I could get a similar gameplay experience and character look in a hundred indie games for an 8th of the price and that's not the takeaway I want from this The game problably has cosmetics and outfits, but this is their foot forward on this, the big thing to make me want to play their game so it is a shame it looks so... welll... unoriginal?

I think if the protagonist looked like the cartoon girl it would be way better. To me it this trailer send me the same bad vibe as so many moives and games that has totaly missunderstand what a great female character should be. Games have so many "great" "strong" "independent" "charismatic" and most of all likeable females, why did that have to change to this. Why does people question the fact that me and other gamers like a totaly diffrent kind of character. And why does dev teams persist on doing this modern woman that most of us don't like. Let me give you all a list of the great female characters that I have played and enjoyed over ther years. Tifa (FFVII), Aerith (FFVII), Yuna (FFX), Lara Croft (Tomb Raider), Aloy (Horizon), Zelda (BOTW and TOTK), Samus (Metroid), Ellie (TLOU1), Elena Fisher (Uncharted), Chole Frazer (Uncharted). This is the list I can write on top of my head and I bet other gamers can name many more like them. Compare any of the wimen mentioned above to what we are shown in this trailer. How they act, how they look, how they make us feel. Thats it the kind of female characters I like and its why this trailer fail so hard for me. That is why this trailer fail so hard for a majority of gamers thats why this trailer have more downvotes than upvotes. That is why Naughty dog decided to turn off comments on there video while Sonys channle did not. They know what they are doing and that pisses me off even more. This comment is not me telling anyone to disslike this game. It's just my reason for not liking it and Im not the only one.

To me i like her facials expressions and her attitude and the shaved head too, i think she gonna be cool character✌

[@princephillip1481]

So based off a character design?? Not the entire game??? You know, open world design, gameplay, graphics, story.🤦🏽‍♂️ lol Smfh and don't worry, it's a day one buy!

[@GfoxSim]

For me that's exactly what attracted me to her look and attitude. The way she drank with that attitude was cool. It's just so interesting, everything that I saw on that trailer. I don't like the eye-patched boss lady on the screens though. Also the product placement throughout kinda made the game less original.

[@princephillip1481]

@GfoxSim The product thing is probably a sign of this to come lol, since Playstation consoles are soo popular around the world, they probably went to Sony to put said product in the game, of course for a fee lol I have no problem with it if done right. 🤷🏽‍♂️

@princephillip1481 good point.

[@Wraxieus]

This game has made me non-buynary....

[@ElDrHouse2010]

dont care the character is ugly and unrelatable ngl

[@maumu707]

haha

[@Rithysak101]

Ehhh. The character looks so super realistic and detail and bald, it looks not appealing to me. The same happened with the art direction of the Last of Us 2.

[@dr.zoidberg8666]

Last of Us 2 was an excellent game

[@Startrance85]

The last of us 2 was absolute dog water, Naughty Dog ruined their reputation by releasing that game.

@@Startrance85 got any more dogshit opinions? I needed a good laugh today.

[@dr.zoidberg8666]

@@Startrance85 That's a silly thing to say. The characters were well written, the plot was heart wrenching, the gameplay & graphics improved on the first one. It was literally only a nonsense aesthetics-level culture war outrage that afflicted TLOU 2 -- same as this trailer. Y'all are holding back gaming as a medium with your 10 year old boy level desires.

[@darkknight2864]

@@dr.zoidberg8666 bro doesn't have the mental capacity to understand that stories come from all walks of life and not always from a buff ex-marine named brad michaelson who is needs to rescue his kidnapped blonde wife. oh and he is maga so it makes total sense. i hope neil druckmann continues to do this just to piss these guys off till they eventually become numb and stop caring

This looks really good but with Neil Druckman as Creative Director I have my worries. After all the greats left the studio and he became in charge he has only hired Yes Men, Women and Non Binary probably. Bruce Straley said no to a lot of his dumb ideas in Last of Us 1 and had less power in Uncharted 4 to veto his ideas hence Nadine. Her Look i honestly like. I get reminded of characters from Aliens. Like if Rhea Ripley was the body model then no one would be hating as we can see in real life "Oh shes a muscle mommy" instead of Druckmann taking his fetish as it seems to the haters by making smaller women IRL big in video games and ugly sticking beautiful women. I haven't seen another Studio Head like Druckmann also stay Directing Video Games. NaughtyDog was my favorite video game studio because of Amy Hennig and ever since she left its gone down hill in tone and quality in my opinion. I can not WAIT for her Captain America and Black Panther game.

[@VilaTravF]

It looks bad. I don't like it

[@peloquin5652]

looks imo super mediocre ...

[@gjergjaurelius9798]

Yeah nice but we need to move on from the 80's looks. Its over time to move to the 90's. Which we have seen in this trailer from the CDs to the original flat screen.

[@Startrance85]

Concord 2 Naughty Dog was a respected studio, they lost alot of that respect in the past few years.

[@Sherlock277]

False.

[@dancemachine497]

make up your own opinion, instead of repeating what the foregone conclusions folks are preaching. Little to nothing is concord 2 in here.

I loved this video. So refreshing to see someone analyze a trailer like this in such depth. And this game looks amazing and I agree, everything here tells me a story. And it’s NAUGHTY DOG… so Yh. We know how they roll 🤌
