Naughty Dog Announces Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet

She looks like a monk boy, I expected nothing less from Cuckman. Its sad seeing an ultra talented studio abilities wasted under his direction.


Oh well...

Edit: on the brightside...Astrobot 🥳

Come on.
It's like they did everything they could to have the worst looking character possible, it just feels like a joke / parody at this point.
Who wants to play as this?

You wouldn't have gotten a main character looking like this in a AAA game a few years back, this clearly scream 2020s, so yes, this is woke, because it's just ridiculously obvious what they're trying to do.
It does look new though. I'll wait and see.
 
Everyone jumping on the woke bandwagon, because it's a female character with a bald head? Have you not seen Alien? You're part of the problem man. My god.

Aesthetic is great, music will be great given the artists involved. ND has never missed story telling wise so I assume it's going to rock. Time will tell
Dont you see the patern in western studios in erasing both feminine looking females and male characters from the games? Is that a patern so hard to recognize? NaughtyDog has alot of talent in the studio to not pull a concord, so the game will most likely be good, if not great, but its tiring to see the same shit happening again and again and again.

Ugly bald chick main character and features cringe, aura-less actor/comedian Kumail Nanjiani as a character?

Hard pass.

I've yet to buy a single first party Sony game for the PS5 because I can't stand their ghey output.
 
@Topher Neil made a NYTimes interview about the game.



How was this cringe marvel writing? There were basically zero quips in there.

I swear to god people now make up stuff to get mad at.


Love how in the timed piece he said he's taking inspiration from akira and cowboy bebop. Those are two phenomenal pieces of source material to build your game around.

He's cringe and not even remotely funny, imo. His comedy seems forced.

How many far future female bounty hunters have you met to know what they should look like?
 
Is Ellen ripley woke too then??

Everything that makes them insecure one way or the other (and boy, there are a LOT of things for these people) is "woke" to them. It's phychology 101, entry level.


It's gonna be a great adventure, no doubt.
Surprisingly cluncky mo-cap though, and also everything appears way too clean and fake looking.
 
I don't even know how to respond to this comment because none of that crap was even in the trailer.

Hey, you're talking about winning a future contest without even knowing what the contents of the game are. It's only fair I could presume about what could be the creators plans to implement in this game.

Only difference is shes white. Im sick of this BS infecting every corner of the internet.
Eh, Ripley didn't have this annoying sassy "attitude". And i could relate to her character because i already knew her from the previous movies.

And the shaved head was not really her choice.

Also, i didn't like her in Alien 3 that much anyway, or in the later films.

I don't know why they insist on casting women in roles dominated and more fitting for men. Most women want nothing to do with something as dangerous as bounty hunting. Far too dangerous and they'd get annihilated.

That's why you gotta make a masculine woman to give her credibility in this profession. At this point, just make a man?
 
I must say I do love the banter on this forum going back and forth. You would never get this on REE 😂. See this is why everyone has a right to an opinion. People can like the design or dislike it. It doesn't matter.
 
nothing about that screamed Woke. (Do recall one of if not the first bounty hunter in video games was a women). It's all in the execution. If she is a complex interesting character… all good. If she is a flat "girl boss" with no hero arc… terrible. (ND gives their female characters complexity and flaws… so not too worried)

It's naughty dog. I'm in. It will be something… one way or another

Oh yeah. Will be very inspired by Akira and Cowboy, knowing how much Neil hate anime design.
 
Looked great except for the woke tokenism protagonist.

As usual ND & Sony continue with their bigotry against white heterosexual male protagonists and attractive heterosexual females. Let's hope Sony ends with the wokism nonsense asap before this game, Ghost of Yokei or the next SSM game became their next Destruction AllStars, Forspoken or Concord.

Other than the unappealing and ugly manly (very likely lesbian, non-binary or trans) 'female' protagonist, the game looked great and interesting.

A badass female bounty hunter when these probably don't even exist? Give her a buzzcut like an army soldier and put her in a role entirely dominated by men? I don't even know why they keep doing this.
 
I cant believe they got Pakistani Danzel for this lmao. ND should be getting real movie stars, not a joke from a tv show. Come on.

The lead character looks like aids. Like she literally got aids and is dying. Uglier than Abby which I didnt think was possible, but like that Avowed director I wouldn't be surprised if Neil did this out of spite to piss off the gamers angry at Abby's character design.

It's his game, and ultimately his choice, but I cant help but feel sorry for the devs over at ND who have literally gone on record saying that your protagonist HAS to be attractive. they said that while showing off Nathan Drake's chest hair and masculine jaw line. But girls are not allowed to be sexy in Drunckman's world.

I think Ciri's design in Witcher 4 is a good compromise. She's not all that feminine, but feminine enough. She's scarred but still attractive. She's badass but still looks like a woman who you dont despise at first glance. Not sure why we cant have that in an ND game. This girl makes Aloy look like an Israeli supermodel.
 
The purple place is already celebrating another victory and here some people still doesn't get it…

Fanboys are blind. They did the same when Concord got his first trailer.

Look at them, attacking GAF because GAF hate woman as a main char and they don't have a single clue if really is a woman or not. Guy put pronoums from the site and assumed that 'Jordan' is a woman.
 
You guys should really stop with the alien reference. Everyone knows that's not what they are going for and that's the difference. Way back then it was a big risk for the studio to do that and took everyone by surprise now it's done all the time for the same " activism " purpose . context is key
Context is definitely key. They did that to Ripley because she was in a prison colonynand would help her blend in. Not because it was some message and/or to make the girl a less feminine girl boss. Was she bald in the previous movies and sequels? Fuck no.
 
Jumping off a rock with a big red sword to slash a tin can looking thing looked lame to me.

Like someone posted earlier they are trying too hard.

I liked the enemy design, and the idea of ND doing a more melee focused game seems interesting.

Not much else to get excited besides that. Ugly girl boss protagonist, awful product placement and yet another uninspired GOTG sci Fi Setting
 
The tone and cd changer joke were straight out of guardians. Are you kidding?
The tone was nothing like Guardians, the set and art design had influences.

The CD changer was not a joke either.

I guess if it looks like guardians of the galaxy it must be marvel style of writing? Right? Right?
Confusing art design and writing is honestly something else. One has words said out loud, the other is purely visual.

Love how in the timed piece he said he's taking inspiration from akira and cowboy bebop. Those are two phenomenal pieces of source material to build your game around.
I'm extremely intrigued by the bounty hunter premise. You just know I'm gonna pixel peep the video frame by frame later on.

And btw no one was defending concord on here man and i do mean no one lol.

Fun fact, 27% of US residents with the first name Jordan are female.
 
For some reason I find her character model more fitting like this being a bounty hunter that seems to be out on her own.

I like this better than some neon blue hair teased off to one side with heavy black eye make up type of character for this setting.

I dunno to each their own
Well, there isn't much context. The model is unremarkable, it's just a person. It's realistic in a mundane sort of way. I agree that the model/design fits in a pragmatic sense (having long hair in space must be a hassle, for example)

the weird aspect is the dialog and directing that makes the whole package......sus. to say the least.
 
It's his game, and ultimately his choice
I think he's going for an anime inspired vibe with the main character but studios in California can't do it right. No one is expecting Stellar Blade but come on… even the way she talks isn't right. Zero charisma or flair. Sounds like any girl I work with.
