What The Hell Happened To The Infamous Series?

[@flashpoint5292]

It's crazy that I don't need to watch this video to understand that Infamous never fell off. Sucker Punch didn't want to be known for only one franchise hence Ghost of Tsushima

[@flashpoint5292]

@Alex Corvis I think you fail to realize that Sony didn't want pc ports until recently. Combined with the fact that the only ones they could port are Second son and First Light, there is no reason. The first two games were made on ps3 so porting to ps4 or ps5 is not worth the time hence ps now having those two games. This isn't Sony's fault nor is it Sucker Punch's fault, it's just how things go

[@Silraps]

@@Bigmellow_ First Light was a good game. It served the same purpose as Festival Of Blood. It was never intended to be a Main Line game, but more of a DLC based Side Game. The franchise died because SP moved on to different things.

[@rashadavery7742]

Agreed sucker punch can make games just as great as infamous bc ghost of Tsushima does go hard

For me, it's the way Delsin controls with his smoke powers. Even something as simple as his dodge has the sort of "weightless" and "floaty" feel to it when he comes out of it. He sort of "hovers" at the end, which leads seamlessly into running. No delay really between the two actions.

I would love another Infamous game, one of my favorite series. What I really loved is that while the story decisions may not have been hugely different depending on if you were playing good or bad, the moment to moment gameplay was massively different. Playing good meant actively avoiding injuring civilians and killing enemies, whereas bad was pure chaos, go all out, blow everything up, who cares who gets hurt in the process. With second son looking as good as it did almost 10 years ago, imagine what SP would be able to accomplish now. Fingers crossed we get to find out

One of my favourite missions from InFamous 2 was just a little random sidequest. If you play through the Good Karma path, a woman comes up to you, and says that if it hadn't been for you sharing food supplies in Empire City (which is wiped off the map at the start of the game), her mother would've starved to death in the quarantine there. She kisses you, thanks you; and that's the mission over. I adored it as just a little example of how it felt that you were impacting real people whose complex lives, not just ticking off location markers on the world map.

Infamous 1 has a special place in my heart. I always played the demo at Walmart while my mom was shopping.

[@AmateurAnimations65]

If you ask me, the smoking gun that kind of ended inFamous was choosing to use the good ending of infamous 2 as canon moving forward. A third game with Cole as the villain and Delsin desperately trying to gain enough powers to stop him would have been way more interesting and could have added some extra depth to Cole as a would-be savior who chose a darker path to saving humanity. But instead they based their creative choices on trophy data of all things, and as a result, Second Son looks pretty but I can mostly describe it as bootleg X-Men with vaguely infamous-related gameplay. I still like it, but it doesn't hit nearly as hard as the first two games

[@Conservative7887]

Agreed!

[@Slushie2001]

I wouldnt say that was the smoking gun, I agree this idea would be better but Second Son was in Sony's term, a success and one of their best selling games. The Series didn't die yet, Sucker Punch just wanted to move on and make a different game/series, which is now Ghost of Tsushima

Think it’s interesting that despite ghost of Tsushima giving the illusion of player choice (at least it felt like it did to me) with either honouring you way of the samurai and remaining honorable, vs embracing the new ways of war given to you by yuna and doing whatever it takes to win, the game still felt like it forced you to play in the ghost mode, I felt a little disappointed that the studio who did infamous, a game famous for character choice with the karma system, couldn’t have made something similar with how to play throughout that game, but maybe it’s just me

Sucker Punch has become a beloved developer for me ever since I fell in love with Infamous back in '09. While I have no problem with them moving onto other projects, I feel like I speak for a lot of other Infamous fans when I say that we need at least one more game from them. If you want to move on from Infamous from that point onwards then fine, but Second Son really felt like it was setting up this larger universe with the aftermath of Cole MacGrath's death and knowing the fact that the community's decision on what ending they ultimately chose in the 2nd game influenced where the story headed afterwards was really really cool. That alone should be the reason they should continue.

[@dannymarsh3080]

I cannot stress how much I have wanted to see a true third instalment to infamous. I would love the theorised story surrounding Kessler and I think, with the karma system in place, it would allow Sucker Punch to create such a sympathetic hero turned villain; was he a coward who refused to take responsibility for the safety of others, or was he a caring and loving father who lost his family to something he couldn't foresee? How did he discover his powers, how did he lose his loved ones, how did he travel back in time, how did take overthrow Alden and cease control of the First Sons? And I would love, absolutely love Infamous 3 to end with the beginning of Infamous 1; "Activation plus six minutes. Pulse is 45, respiration 10. Looking good, Cole". God, it would be so good! I hope Sony and Sucker Punch realise this, because if they remastered Infamous 1 and 2 for the PlayStation 5, before releasing the Infamous 3 I've proposed, it would make them so much money.

[@ChickenOfTheCaveMan]

I played all of them near release and 1 has the best story, 2 is the best overall and Second Son is visually and presentation wise the best.

[@chaosdeus1]

No mention of Festival of Blood? That was a great side game from 2. I loved the vampire powers.

[@mauricehopes9105]

All the infamous games are good. 2 is my personal favorite, but I enjoyed playing all of them. I didn't love Delson as a character so I would prefer Cole, Fetch, or a new character for a sequel. But I'm down for a new game however they make it.

[@PDYLANL]

I still got my Infamous Game straight from Blockbuster, where they accidentally didn't put it as a rented game but rather bought it for rent price. That one memory is such a golden era of my childhood where it Kickstarted my love for video games, even experienced the release of BF3 waiting outside of Best Buy, earning a BF3 Tshirt...life was just so much better back then...

[@doobieholdin]

This game would make such a good movie/TV series. Sony and marvel need to do this together!

[@MagicCardboardBox]

Man, if they brought this series back, it would be so successful. They could just do second son again, another reboot(ish)

[@AfroNerd-cv1dl]

I remember playing infamous 2 back on the PS3. Cole Mcgraph is one of my favorite characters of all time. At the time when I played, I was too young to recognize the weight of his decisions, and the honor in his behavior.

[@HS-iw1ed]

I grew up on these games from the first game onwards. While I part of me would love to see the return of Cole and his thunder god level powers, I gotta respect in this modern day of constant reboots with increasingly questionable quality, that end of the series is what gives it more meaning and make it more lovable. Flogging the dead cash-cow isn't what I want infamous to be known for, and the devs clearly wanted to keep creative progression going, and did it well with Ghost of Tsushima

[@pesky19]

it didn't really fall tho, they've just taken a break to focus on new IP's (Ghost of Tushima)

[@mrpopo5097]

They haven’t taken a break. The devs literally said they’re tired of superhero games now.

[@pesky19]

@@mrpopo5097 which is why they've taken a break mate

Cole Mcgrath was a legend bro, id kill for a remaster of 1 and 2..

[@jxy_vbn8156]

Second Son was not the first infamous game I ever played but it was by far one of the most beautiful, fun and downright enjoyable games I’ve ever played. The characters were interesting in their own right, the story was thought-provoking and easy to get invested in and the gameplay was really fantastic. Using the Neon power’s dash to traverse the cityscape at night along with the particle effects, lighting and different settings in the city was an absolute joy. I really REALLY want this game series to come back :(

[@Renatinho12ful]

anytime I revisit infamous feels like I'm in touch with an old friend. The infamous second son city is ridiculously immersive, just to free roam in there feels like time well spent

[@jvmoony]

9:55 is what you're looking for, guys. The other is just the history of Infamous series.

[@Dzzy123]

Sucker Punch made a huge mistake making the good ending of 2 canon. The evil ending was far more interesting because it was morally gray. Placing Second Son after 2's good ending actually undermines Cole's sacrifice if anything.

[@royery]

Infamous Second Son and First Light were fantastic. My favorites of the series I must say.

[@ronniearnold9165]

For me, personally; I didn't appreciated when the voice actors for Cole MacGrath was changed. Everybody wanted the new one when clearly the old one should have stayed in place!

[@shaddouida3447]

Infamous Reboot

[@ronniearnold9165]

It is easy to say that the newer game is better when clearly Infamous First Light and Second Son was blessed with PS4 tech, unlike Infamous One. I am pretty sure if Infamous One was somehow remastered to look and play with the LATEST tech. It would be a 'better' game.

[@claudioestevez1028]

Everything sucker punch does is pure gold. I've played infamous (1), infamous second son (also first light), and ghost of tsushima. These are some of my favorite games ever. Infamous second son is incredibly fun. First light is also very fun, I can't believe it had bad reviews, maybe because it was too short? For me the funnest power (which is not necessarily the most powerful power) was light, so I really enjoyed the first light spin-off.

[@joshewert13]

Would love a infamous2 remastered. This was the first game that I decided to go evil, and have been ever since. You try to do right every day in life, so it lets you blow off some steam.

[@userusingYouTube]

I need a remastering of the first two games cuz i never got to play them and I looooveeed Second Son 😭

[@bas42946]

i have 1 and 2 for my ps3 i can tell you they are so good

[@Original-Juice]

just got a PS5 at the end of 2022. Can't believe how awesome Infamous Second Son looks and plays on it. Basically a 10 year old game. Criminally overlooked game.

[@akarisaberwolf8762]

I love the infamous series and would love to see another game or let alone a remaster of the 1st 2, but I'm not holding my breath.

[@alexmercer936]

I love all 3 a lot. They’re just far too short. I just played through all 3 in the last few days (including side missions). Really wish there was more

[@tp3239]

Bro Infamous was my favorite game before i played The Witcher 3, I loved all of them, the good and bad system was so fun, The Witcher and Infamous are the only games i pre-ordered, it's a shame and something i don't understand when a successful series stop like that, I hope they release at least one last version or continue with more versions of the game like CD project with The Witcher. Great video

[@mavelost2238]

The first Infamous was my first into this franchise and I love the Cole story; would love to play it again, but Second Son is hands down my favorite. Wish it had been longer and they had developed the good and evil more and Eugene needed to be fleshed out more and given some more story time like Fletch got.

[@HARBRINGERZERO]

inFamous was the first one I played. I really miss that series. I kinda see Forspoken as a medieval inFamous, shooting rocks instead of electricity and that parkour movement is just like the Neon powers from inFamous Second Son. Guess that’s why I don’t hate Forspoken like everyone else does.

[@hot-_-fries1254]

The reason why I got to play the infamous game in the first place is because I was a kid in a broke household around 2011 when the Sony hack happened, and the only thing I could play was the first infamous demo where you have to ride the train, I played that demo religiously and even did both karmas in that short demo, it was an amazing time to be a gamer and a Sony fan surprisingly , infamous was a breath of fresh air compared to big name titles like Spider-Man, and other movie games that came out at this time.
