@@Beyblade_worrior yeah people need to stop being so judgemental specially for a game thats not even out and yet alone haven't see much of the gameplay so if the gameplay is solid I'm definitely playing it naughty dog never disappoints when it comes to that
As a head shaver since 1994, the way she held those clippers is currently the only reason to make me not like this game. Aside from that... It absolutely >IS< fair to pre-judge this game. The media as a whole, has been "uplifting" women by crapping on men for literally the last HALF-CENTURY. Characters like Ellen Ripley, Laura Croft and Sarah Connor were beloved precicely because they stood on their own...but they are ANOMOLIES...especially in the last 10 years. Even Michelle Yeoh, who got famous being a beautiful pageant winner willing to get bashed up in HK action films, is suddenly throwing her co-stars, directors AND FANS under the bus by complaining about women somehow not getting adequate opportunities in show business. The entire point of all this is to elicit the exact reaction they're getting. So putting on the surprised Pikachu face that people are now reacting with blatant prejudice after all this is gaslighting at it finest. EDIT: Just saw a vid about the voice actress that plays the main character. Yeah, the people that pre-judged this game were exactly right.
Finally see a comment on this.. 20yrs shaved close hair shaver here.. I saw that and was like. Who in their damn mind clips their hair like that with clippers 🤦🏽♂
@@lucianocoacci2129 Trust me, I don't care how new you are at this... it would take you precisely >ONCE< to run those things across your skin the wrong way to figure that sh!t out. The developer was so busy trying to larp that "tough girlboss" role they didn't even bother to ask someone who ACTUALLY HEADHAVES how it's done. Which is hilarious since the actress that plays her is demanding that studios not only pander to the ABCDXYZ crowd, but that they hire ABCDXYZ >consultants< to ensure they do it right!!!
What you mentioned here is what I've been seeing for the past ten years since the SJWs/Third Wave Feminism that many have forgotten about came to the scene in 2013/2014. It just goes to show that trends from the 2010s refuse to die, same with the right wing side of things the political people on that side of the spectrum refuse to let go of certain things.
There's nothing wrong at all with seeing different races, genders, etc as protagonists. What makes this trailer eye-rolling is that we literally had an xbox showcase where 70% of the games showcased featured the tiresome trope of a masculinized "strong woman of color". We've seen Flintlock, Dustborn, Unkown 9 all flop. So here comes this trailer and it's like they're not reading the room. The trope is tiresome and played out. It has nothing to do with "racism" or "misogyny". It's just seen a repeating pattern and it's getting stale.
Calling something a trope that hasn't even been around that long is crazy. I wonder do you do that every time they make the stereotypical white main character cuz that's definitely more of a trope
@@DwillGame For the past 5 years all we've seen in entertainment is girlbosses. It's played out and tiresome and people are absolutely speaking with their wallets. The flops just keep coming whether you like it or not.
@@robertbarga3694 I absolutely agree with you and your first statement above. And seeing how this has happened for the past ten years, it's not only tiring, but depressing as heck. Female characters in video games in the past, while some see them as sex icons, were able to have their own personalities, fighting abilities, etc. without shoving down propaganda down our throats every time we played the games or watched the movies and tv shows...Nowadays, EVERYTHING has to be eye-catching and hidden scummy tactics just to get something out the door, by corporate board members who are extremely out of touch with their consumers they might as well stop making games and focus on making electronics and movies while they're at it.
you arw right and it makes sense, you are going to see your character for pretty much the entirety of the game, i dont know why they made her in a polemic way, naughty dog literally released their trailer comments deactivated. Lets be honest, if you make a game you should read users feedback, they're the one who are going to buy the game.
Exactly.... Either we get over dramatic beautiful women protagonist or some stud type protagonist... Can we just get an average female that can be badass protagonist.. This game will get goty watch smh
If this game was under any other company it wouldn't get as much it is. Neil Drunkman is probably one of the most hated guy in gaming because of what he did in LOU2. Story wise he made very questionable decisions characters and story wise to emphasize certain things
Small group of people. Alot us just like gaming "for FUN" an dont search for every bad thing a game do or dont do. Alot of us have busy lives an just wanna relax.
@@godssalvation87 I would agree but it definitely isn't a small group I would say atleast half of the people interested in this game aren't liking it some have genuine concerns and some is a about over the top me personally I don't think it's enough for me to be excited I personally didn't like the last of us 2 either but I wont say it's the be all end the trailer had a few cool things in it but I'm not really feeling the mc yet so I'll wait a while before I decide if I think it will be good or not
@@lm4585Neil Druckman likes writing women with a very nasty attitude. It all started with Nadine in Uncharted 4. It was blatantly obvious in Last of Is Part 2. People can already tell this new character has a nasty attitude as well.
Out of all the actors in the industry, they specifically hired a actor who also happens to be a transs activist isn't this clearly show their intentions.
@@SavageKillaBeesit's disgusting you think it's something wrong with being a transactivist. If you're not in favor of human rights you are on the wrong side of history
I mean, I don't mind people who aren't heterosexual, but this is what I also was concerned about the LGBT+ group is being used as a scapegoat to usher something in like what you said here.
@SuperFlashDriver i fail to understand what the point is of all the activism. What do these people hope to achieve? The end game is not evident and I fail to understand it logically. Its almost as if they want to prove outwardly that they are somehow "better" than straight people. Not sure if the basis of the logic even sticks.
I agree to a point. My buddy JJ from the ROE (Residence of Evil) talked about it when I brought it to his attention. It was on his JJ vs Evil channel. He wasn't sure about the gameplay. But I liked the overall 80s vibe. It was when I told him that Naughty Dog disabled the comments and he says that's never a good sign. He said Naughty Dog kinda dug themselves a hole when doing that. I even told my mother about and she's no gamer. But her point was they might've disabled comments to prove a point. It's a neverending argument that never ends well. To a point I can see that. But I don't think Naughty Dog did themselves any favors by disabling comments. Feedback is always important. I'm sure Sony are perhaps telling Neil Druckmann that this game is a disaster and they need to fix it now or Neil will either be fired or at least be forced to step down as Chairman of Naughty Dog. I wouldn't blame them if they did that. So yeah. Naughty Dog really dropped the ball on this game.
For real. Nothing wrong with that opinion. I'm personally holding out for a bit more before I just jump but I understand those who are pessimistic about it.
@@theseekersoflight2271 He is not over TloU2 that says enough. His reaction has nothing to do with the name game so his so called “opinion” is bullshit.
Video games are just products. If you don't like it, don't buy it. If the story has a good story and game mechanics it will sell, whether the sad incel basement dwellers buy it or not. If you want games representing yourself, MAKE ONE and stop whining.
Bro! I like your comments. Neil Druckman and his developers are simply creators. Let them come out with what they create and if you don’t like it just pass your way. They can’t please everyone. But you still can go further and try to appreciate what is fundamental like the deepest gameplay they promise and the story and everything else that defines Naughty Dog’s brand. Guys! I respect your opinion but never judge a book by his cover. I think that for everything that Naughty Dog has already done in the game industry, THEY DESERVE MORE RESPECT. So, be patient and let them finish and come out with the final product and then you will be able to judge them.
You cant talk sense to incels bro. They swarm together because they WANT to whine about something. This place gives them a voice amongst other incels which they dont have irl.
Almost none of those Naughty Dog devs that MADE those great games we remember and love, are still in the company. The OG guys and girls was pushed out or left. And now its filled with activists and the leftovers. Its the same with BioWare and many others. Thats why most new AAA games are crap. So they dont deserve any respect, because they are not the same team, outside the name. Cheers.
I agree with Jade. Naughty Dog is nothing more than a shell of what it use to be. That's why they haven't graced us with another Jak and Dexter... the original creators are GONE and that means this is just a new company that uses the legacy of what use to be a great developer, to push their agenda and social activist. This is why that company will shut down... or be sold to a bigger company that appreciates their fan base and IPs.
The wounds are still fresh with gamers. Naughty Dog and “Duckman” along with Sarkeesian haven’t stopped disrespecting gamers and have been very open about their agenda. It goes all the way back to Gamergate 1. The arrogance of the The Last of Us Part II was a middle finger to fans and gamers. Shutting down comments and banning honest questions on Steam is saying a lot about themselves. This will make or break Naughty Dog.
It says more about modern audiences and their “freedom of speech”. The internet would be a far more interesting place without all that whining. Btw… a lot of (silent) gamers enjoyed TLOUII. The loud minority does not equal the narrative you think there is.
@@shortw00d81 Echo chamber. Incels band with incels so they think "most" people hated tlou2. In reality, more people loved it. They just arnt as lifeless and feel the need to come online and make noise.
@ If Neil Druckmann is truly a good dev he would leave Naughty Dog and have his own video game company. He doesn’t because he will fail without Naughty Dog’s brand and fanbase and gaslights Naughty Dog fans into thinking he isn’t pushing an agenda with his games.
@@petermj1098Tell me, if he is pushing an agenda, how does that affect you if you have your own critical mind to discern things? is it an evil agenda? how many puppies has Druckman skinned?
It's not forcing inclusion if the creators want to make something we should respect their art. As long as they're making the character if they want to make it is not force.
Gamers are some of the most whiniest, toxic people. Is it her shaved head or is it the other thing? We don’t even know much about the game yet. There’s plenty of white dude protagonists and there always will be. The same group of people that tell other people on the internet to “cry” or “cope” are doing the same thing. ND is known for their story driven characters and they had the Uncharted franchise where the protagonist was a straight white dude. Also, the TLOU 1 with Joel. This was announced as another franchise, not just one game. The problem is people are listening to other crazy UA-camrs and not forming their own opinions. Are you actually annoyed or did someone else tell you that you should be? Some people would have rolled their eyes if this was another white dude. Lose lose situation. Just enjoy games. They’re incredible.
Dawg I was thinking the same thing. The game itself can be epic. I don't care if the MC is some bald head girl. Now it seems the game may get canceled all because "Oh no! Bald woke girl! Trash the whole game!".
The lack of empathy in the average person is low. It's easier to emphasize with someone you have things in common with. Not many people care and might even hate. You can cry all you want and they'll never really care
It’s not the look of the character that’s making people mad. It’s the connotation that comes with making characters who look like this under certain writers/studios. Everytime we see a smug, snarky, angsty female character with a weird haircut, it makes people think of Batwoman, She-Ra, Captain Marvel, and any other character who has the archetype that’s written terribly. Naughty Dog and specifically Neil Druckmann has been going out of their way to make things off putting to the audience, and it results in them handling it terribly. So people can’t be upset when we see something very reminiscent of other terrible media in a ND game. Just feels like it’s possible that it can happen again here. And I hope it doesn’t, because I love this aesthetic.
I will never dislike a game simply because of how the main character looks. I want a good game, period. I will give this game a shot and hopefully Naughty Dog delivers another solid IP. BUT, if it turns out that this IS just a woke agenda-pushing game that sucks, then I will criticize it as such.
Not a single person thought Joel was going to survive in The Last of Us 2, i;m upset with the shitty writing that lead to his death. The story was full of plot contrivances which are totally out of place for the characters.
@Evilatem Lol of course they didn't, it was leaked before release. Duh! 🤪 Jokes aside, It's the way they did it. People would not be upset with his demise if it was done properly and more thought was put into it and wasn't senseless. I think a sacrificial end would have been a better move. Heck, even if it was to save Abby.
@@theandroids Even before the leaks, everyone thought either Joel or Ellie would die. Go watch/play the first 1/2 hour of the Last of Us again. Joel was always a "screw everyone but me and my family" type of guy even before the outbreak. When you are first trying to escape town, Tommy says to Joel that they should stop and help a family with a kid on the road by saying : Tommy: We should help. Joel: Drive. Tommy: Hey, come on, they got a kid. Joel: Yeah? So do we! DRIVE! Same thing when Ellie says to stop and help the "wounded" guy. Joel says "It's a trap! GET DOWN!" then tries to run the guy over. At no point would Joel have stopped to save Abby when they were being overrun by the infected. ND said that the game was an anti-revenge game. The problem with that is Abby got her revenge and got to live out her life happily but Ellie lost everything for revenge. So it's giving mixed messages at best and it's poorly written at worst. There's a whole sub plot about Ellie's fungus in her brain becoming larger hinting that she might not be immune to the spores just very slow to turn and it's causing her erratic behavior. That is on a random paper in the hospital. Why wasn't THAT a main story line thread? Just SOOOO much potential great story wasted.
@@Evilatem Growth, guilt, and character development. They could have also created a great story with a redemption arc for Joel before he sacrifices himself to save Abby. There could have been an entire Abby and Ellie team for the next game or DLC, etc. Obviously, some people at that company hated Joel with a passion, and not everyone agreed with the direction, hence the leak. Oh well... another great sequel that never was.
i expected joel to die.... apparently he 'gained' autism 40k but failed his mission and now he's dead in a stupid way. 'revenge' bad.... sonic 3 did it better.
usually i would turn games like this away and search else where. but naughty dog was part of my child hood and im hoping at least one game will work out. so until the gameplay and release comes, i'm willing to give this the benefit of a doubt.
This is one of the more reasonable takes I've heard around this game. 99% of people's comments in the trailer for the game, are super reactionary and cannot explain their reasoning at all, blindly scream "WOKE" based on the most loose and miniscule 'evidence', and project a hell of a lot more into the game, than they have actual information about it. If it turns out to have heavy push of gender ideology like for example the latest Dragon Age game, then it will be criticized appropriately, but until we see the actual gameplay and story in practice and at length, no such accusations can reasonably made from the 4 minute trailer that we got, which was pretty much just a mood piece and you can only get what's the art style and visual themes they are going for, and nothing else from it.
I just hate how ugly and unlikable the main character is, it's as simple as that, she's instinctively repulsive. Also, Naughty Dog was never good at gameplay, once they f up visuals and characters there's nothing left.
What's with this terrible trend of making main character as bland and faceless as possible? This breaks all immersion for me. I like space settings. But her design and attitude. Oh god. So repelling. I'd still play this game if the story is good :/ We'll see I guess.
This is exactly what I feel like at the moment. I’m a conservative man but playing as a bald headed female doesn’t bother me in the slightest. As long as the game is good and the woke shit is not there then I’m all in.
The people that are hating on this game just because of the gender or what they assume is the sexual orientation of the protagonist are the ones with the real issues. I'm a heterosexual married man with two teenagers. I couldn't care less if the character is gay, bi or whatever. I care about the story, graphics, animation and gameplay. Played TLOU and the TLOU2 and did not give a crap that Ellie was gay. I drive a truck, listen to country and enjoy camping and other outdoor activities. The guys that are dissing this game will be the ones missing out, because TLOU2 was awesome. TBH, I'm a little biased because I love the zombie genre and days gone was also a great game...lol
Ellie was gay in TLoU, and no one (mostly, obviously) cared, man. TLoU2 was just a hot, steaming pile of garbage, dressed up to look like fine cuisine. That someone is so damn petty, so vengeful, so miserable, that they would go across the country to hunt down a single guy during a literal apocalypse, however many years after the events of the first game... and then the dude saves your life during your little hunt, and brings you to safety, and you still kill him? Not just kill him, but absolutely massacred him, and in front of his surrogate daughter? Which in turn just robbed us of an absolutely fantastic character, which was advertised to return and have a prominent role? Like, that ALONE was enough for me to say f-ck that game. But I can give another example, and this time it's more of pointing out how f-ed up this game's character writing is: Ellie gets hate from an older guy while he's drunk, who doesn't like seeing her with Dina. Yeah, the old man was wrong for that. Joel comes in and defends her, and then... she gets mad at Joel, who was on her side, because she's upset with him, because she wasn't given a choice to give her life for the cure with the Fireflies, even though she was unconscious and being operated on without her consent as it was, and she blames Joel for robbing her of her destiny or purpose or some BS, and just... ugh. This whole drama didn't matter in TLoU. Ellie either already knew the whole truth, or at least that Joel was lying about the Fireflies at the end of the game, and just accepted it. Why? Because Joel was that important to her, and understood that he was protecting her. And this scene... irks me to no end. Then at the end, the old man eventually apologizes to the girls, and even makes them food for the road, and Ellie just... yeah. I hate it. And NOTHING progressed the plot, it was just LGBT propaganda shoved in for the hell of it. Seriously, people are dying every single day to undead, cordyceps-controlled flesh-addicts. Who actually cares about someone's sexual orientation? Who ACTUALLY has the time or energy to care about such things? Holy hell... But to each their own, ya know? If you enjoyed it, then at least someone did lol.
I'm honestly pretty sick of the grifters. The second a game drops that has a potential "woke" character ( which she doesn't even seem to be. she just seems like a tough chick) people start hating. It's honestly the worst part about being a part of the gaming community.
“Realistic” writer Neil Druckman thinks that an average body woman fighting a giant robot with no armor and nor superpowers only wearing casual clothes makes sense. Even Doom Guy wears an armored suit despite being a naturally powerful character. Lol
@ Laura Croft doesn’t have a nasty personality despite being a tough female. Literally every woman Neil Druckmann writes has a nasty personality. People gave Ellie in the first game a pass because people saw her she being an angsty and hurt teenager. It became more noticeable in Uncharted 4 with Nadine. And it just became blatantly obvious with the last of Is 2 where every female is just extremely nasty mean-spirited personality.
@@petermj1098 like Cowboy Bepop right? Or Nathan Drake when he killed hundreds of enemies built like tanks right? The protagonists had full armor plates in the shooting scenes right? We know almost nothing about the game. If It comes out it's another Veilguard (wich I don't think), don't buy it, but until that making these strong assumptions it's bullshit and childish.
@ The trailer only implies that it is a hack and slash fighting. Even other hack and slash characters have some superpowers and protection. Even though the Prince from the Prince of Persia is a mere human and has a magical sword, and he still was super athletic and WORE ARMOR. Uncharted literally has a duck and cover system and was while being chased by a tank and had to maneuver in Uncharted 2. Nathan Drake didn’t just jump in the middle of open battlefield and start destroying the tank. Lol Spike Spiegel fights mere human characters in Cowboy Bebop not giant robots. Spike still got his own butt seriously kicked by other expert killers/fighters who are on his level and had to actually prepare in order to defeat some of them later. Spike is a former high ranking gangster and knows how all criminals think so he already knows what to expect from them. Spike’s approach life in general is all about being Jeet Kune Do calm. Spike calmly acts like he an average person to track a bounty and only fights when he has to. Spike still needed to maneuver in fire fights despite being an expert marksman. Lol All I learned is that this new character has a big lightsaber, has some flying tech, likes anime, and likes to drink soda, I guess used to be friends with Lalo Salamanca. Lol I guess showing off actual GAMEPLAY systems like armor, powers, specific human skill sets isn’t important to Neil Druckmann, so I assume there isn’t any. Naughty Dog literally never had an armor system in Uncharted or The Last of Us games as well and it still shows they don’t in this game.
Honestly the trailer wouldn't have gotten as much crap if they showed any actual gameplay and action. instead they foolishly assumed the story elements and Naughty dogs past success would be enough not realizing Naughty dogs reps been in the can since TLOU2. Turning off the Comments only showed their lack of confidence or at worst cowardice when facing criticism, which only added fuel to the fire
Maybe Naughty Dog are trying to stretch their legs. As a creative, I'd be tired of the white guy, neckbeard archetype. I see the 80's, a punkish, shaved-head Ripley & am down with it. Once again, it's only forced when it's not the same tired white guy I've been forced to play since the mid 80's. Others have have entered the industry and have stories they'd lile to tell also. Those that don't like it, go play Kingdom Come and its lik if people that don't match their mirror reflection offends them.
Everyone is soooo annoying dude I’m so tired of everyone bitching and crying about every game that comes out. The game looks dope idk what people are complaining about it hasn’t even come out. you can’t make everyone happy and sadly these days, looks like you can’t make ANYONE happy. 🙄
There is no lack of females in games: - Bayonetta - Ellie - Dina - Aloy - Senua - Abby - Metroid - Lara Croft - Jill Valentine - Zelda - Samus - Faith - Ada Wong
Crack would be a phat ass, long hair and an ability to kick ass without being center of attention!! They're making every dish on the menu taste like anchovies 😂😂😂 ..the too cool for school attitude is wack and over done😢 They can no longer tell a cohesive story with the true and tried structure and suffer greatly for it!?
Neil Druckmann is the reason this game is getting hate, and he deserves it. He openly antagonised fans of TLOU who were upset with the direction he decided to take with the story of the sequel. Many people believe Neil Druckmann is a hack and a snake. They believe he got to the position he did by taking credit for work, which was a group effort. That he is responsible for fundamentally changing the ethos of Naughty Dog for the worse. That now he doesn't have the truly talented devs at Naughty Dog to hold his hand because they left the studio, he will fall flat on his face. Sony and Naughty Dog bought into the Druckmann hype, and now they are reaping what they sowed. Future Naughty Dog games will automatically lose hundreds of thousands of sales before they even get released if Druckmann is associated with them. RIP Naughty Dog.
To those angry gamers, You guys aren’t mature enough to get your point across effectively which is why corporate doesn’t acknowledge you. You have the right to being bias with your entertainment bc your paying for it. But calling everything woke or making fun of lesbians just makes you look intolerant of other groups having an opportunity to be in a game
Respectfully, what do you mean when you said it was dumb that Ellie was mad at Joel for not letting her chose to live? From her point of view Joel stopped the docters from making a cure that would've saved countless people. I'd be pretty mad if Joel did that to me.
So that wasn’t the original narrative and even still, that’s an amazing relationship situation of a father daughter for a part 2. Even if she grows up and says “ Hey I could’ve made an impact” also with her growing she finding her self, it makes sense yes but it was driven differently when Anita sarkesian came in and caused so much and they revamped a lot of the story, so they gutted so much story between Joel and Ellie, that confrontation between them two was an ending not so much the beginning. Then they turned half the scenes into flash backs man. Yeah they did a lot of changing. So instead of did proper build up for Ellie to feel what she truly feels they immediately had her on some fuck u Joel my body my choice but gutted all parts before it that would’ve made those sequences amazing.
@@Not3mg I agree; I think it would've made a better story, that still had that same theme of hate that Neil wanted, if they just had the plot from the flashbacks.
6:13 This idea that nobody wants to see a female lead is a misleading deflection from the real problem. The story's character has to be likable to the target audience. They have to empathize with him/her to be invested in and enjoy the story.
13:45 Did you think Joel lied to Ellie about the cure and what he did to the fireflies for fun? 😉 It didn't come out of nowhere. We knew it would be a problem once she finds out since the end of the first game. And yes, almost every guy died...but almost every girl died too. 😂 The two genderless protagonist went on their crusade to avenge their FATHERS. The message wasn't men bad. The women did good and bad things just like the men. And Joel ultimately impacted BOTH Ellie and Abby's arcs for the better. 👏
Some elements of the trailer looked promising, but I can't help but be very skeptical with that Saint's Row reboot/ Concord birthing person character design. So sick of that nonsense. It has ended franchises, yet developers keep pushing this stuff.
Where’s the political agenda? Is it that she’s a woman? She’s bald? She’s Asian? That’s not an agenda, you’re just obsessed. Please stop being such a snowflake, it’s the future. Live in it.
You literally saw a women shave her head while in space, as if that's new and hasn't been done since the 1980's sifi movies, and somehow that's political!?!? Do you even know wtf the definition of political is?!?! I guess the millions and millions of black women walking around right now with shaved heads are all making a political statement???
Man listen I just want a great game with an amazing story with replay value to be honest ion care bout the character she looks dope asf I’m a big 80s 90s guy but I’m actually tired of playing as a white man time to switch things up a bit🙄😂
I’ll shorten my video with this statement. Someone wrote my take was bad and said everyone has a right to relate to a character. The thing is I agree with that point to, however everyone can enjoy a game from a different perspective, my enjoyment from games are t always from relatability but often times story telling and escape. Just because I enjoy the escape and deep story doesn’t mean I wouldn’t want ppl to enjoy a game because they may relate to a character. I can understand if people are annoyed with the thought of another game forcing certain things but this trailer didn’t give that and the assumption because of a female having a hair cut is wild.
guy you seem not to get it majority of gamers are male who grew up with mothers and sisters looking like women long hair make up breast and ass . how you are trying to sell a flat chested character with a bald head to male and charge 70 bucks for it is beyond me . cant you see Stella blade ?
People are just hating and discriminating way to much. ...and certain UA-camrs are hyping these same people up and getting rich while the gaming community suffers.
People pass judgment because we know who is in charge. See through the smoke and mirrors and who is pulling the strings they have other agendas at hand that we are not down with. Make these games all you want but you gonna lose money
@@Beyblade_worrior You listened to UA-camrs who cant get view's without rage baiting... Those rage baiters screamed for months on end that Silent Hill 2 Remake was woke garbage. They made dozens of video's saying the women in the trailers looked ugly when they looked fine. They made videos CELEBRATING the low pre order numbers, they wanted this game to fail and the team behind it to get laid off!... They pretended like they never talked sht when the game finally came out in October, to overwhelmingly positive reviews. Everything they said in the lead up to the launch was a load of bull, it seriously hurt the pre-order numbers for the game. It turned out to be without question the best horror game of the year, alot of people say it should have been nominated for GOTY over the EldenRing DLC. It eventually became a best seller after the internet caught on that it was a great game and the outrage over the trailers was fking stupid!!! Now y'all are at it again, the women in the trailer has been deemed not hot enough! Smear, smear, smear, celibate when it fails, and act like ya never cared to protect your ego if it turns out good... These people need to grow tf up.
Intergalactic, no joke They ACTUALLY HAD a winning character design. Slender her muscle mass down and give her actual medium to long hair, and she actually would've looked great. Her face didn't even look bad either. They we're SO CLOSE but chose to be in thier own way.
@@jayfrancelf Maybe she looks more like the character without make up. I expect that people have distorted views of the range of how women can look naturally, because of the culture of constant deception and simulation of features one doesn't have or hiding ones they do have, by the use of make up, among other things. Plus the stereotypes of how a woman ''should'' look like (long hair, a dress etc. and all the other arbitrary cultural bs) also ' pollute' people's expectations.
@mitkoogrozev well see... if someone else is marketing a game... shouldn't she aleast lean feminine with nice hair and not be Aang. Yes, clearly, not every woman should have to meet Stellar Blade standards. But wouldn't you want an audience to have a reaction of "oh wow she's cute and interesting" instead of "face palm - oh Jesus lord help me" I garentee you tge later is the majority of people giving "really dog?" style of disappointment judgement. That's not them being whatever chud leaning buzz word... that's just the free market expressing disappointment. ------ Now, if it were up to me. Ratchet and Clank cartoon style cat animals for the art direction.
But yeah, character design and making sure most people like it are highly important in design philosophy. Thiers a reason Goku is the DragonBall main character and Kurriren isn't.
Ironically, people getting triggered just by looking at the character is proving that some people care more about how the character looks than the gameplay, story, voice acting, art direction, graphics, mocap, music, etc...😅
Well a character looks matter quite a lot in games. If you don't show any gameplay clips in the trailer and only show a ugly or I say a boring looking character as your lead in the whole trailer most people will going to complain about it and these days naughty dogs tries to push their agendas in games like they did in lou2 rather than making a enjoyable game... They specifically hires a actor as their protagonist which also happens to be a transs activist , this action clearly shows they will try again to push their agenda in this game too
A character heavily correlates to the story and gameplay. If a character is boring and unrelatable, why would I be interested in her story? If I don't care for a character and she is intentionally visually unappealing, why would I want to play as her? From this short trailer, the voice acting also seemed really off-putting. The delivery during the conversation was straight-up wack, something that doesn't draw you in. Music and graphics are the only two things that seem to be good, but that's not enough, at least for me.
Honestly with everything that's been going on with this DEI stuff I think people are hating on this trailer because they expect it to be another addition to that ""Forced"" DEI agenda. And because I know this is going to trigger some people, The Acolyte failed because it focused on forcing DEI and antagonizing Fans while blaming their Target Audience for Not Watching their show. So I ask you, if it was genuinely about Racism and Sexism for why The Acolyte failed, how is Arcane more successful?
I hate to say it but honestly, if people have a problem with it, they dont have to buy it. When companies say it, people get upset but its honest to god true. This is a brand new IP. They arent taking a previous game and changing it to fit a "woke" take. Its like me going after a new side scroller game because I'm a fan of 3rd person shooters. If they game fails because there wasn't an audience then let it fail. At least give it the chance every game deserves and turn the other way if it doesn't interest you. The problem people have today is they think every game should be marketed for their needs. People dont go out and buy a game that they feel isnt their type of game already but now they have to throw shade for a game they were never going to buy anyways? Again, ai understand it when they take an existing IP but when its a completely new one, its the most ridiculous thing I've seen gamers cry about.
@@Not3mgeven with a new IP you can’t get an audience that isn’t there. Most gamers are still men most men don’t want to play as women most men want to play as a man. So we have the right to say we don’t and won’t play these games new IP or old IP doesn’t matter. Some games are great Horizon is one of my favorites. However look at the company, see who is in charge and what their agendas are. You can clearly see some people are just social justice warriors hiding behind keyboards and screens. They want to normalize the butch female which is just ridiculous. Women and men are different i never understood why women choose to look like a man when you so desperately want to be respected as women. Nothing will ever be good enough even if you have everything handed to you. But go ahead and have an issue with us. I would love to see all the bald headed ladies out there and all their rainbow hair colored friends support this game the same way all the other woke games have succeeded, Concord… Unknown awakening…. Soon to be the horrible Avowed like open your eyes 👀
Yes, but here's the issue. When you say "don't buy our game it's not for you" you can't do that when your game cost 250 million dollars. You can do that as a small indie game that cost 1 million dollars. Dragon Age Veilguard cost around 250 million. Even at 3 million sales they are at a net loss to this day. Imagine if they made a game that everyone wanted. Imagine.
@@Meltdownlv100 obviously whoever’s channel this is a cuck and doesn’t like me saying things goodnight folks enjoy your DEI wait for your beloved Rockstar to fall after NaughtyDog
@@cr3d294 you realize that's my point. A gamer isn't entitled to every game as if it should be marketed towards them. If it isn't your cup of tea, don't buy it and don't be toxic towards the devs for making a game not for you. As I said earlier though, if their game ends up failing because either the audience they wanted didn't buy the game or it's just genuinely a bad game, then let the company suffer the loss. These are big corporations we are talking about. I couldn't care less if they decide to let their business burn because they feel the need to continue to make trash games to win social points or because the culture of the studio is too extreme. Let the market decide who stays and who fades. We just need to stop all this infighting amongst gamers and play the game we want to play without all those woke or anti woke nonsense
another DEI game , people tired of it and worse the signs for it being one are so clear from company, studio, higher ups, design decisions and more 9:30 the prefacing is exactly why people don't like it, its coddling or fear to even say "i don't want this ___ as a MC" as if that's vile to say than just facts
I think the trailer was just not well done anyway it did not get me interested in its characters at all. Graphics look good but at this point any AAA company can make some good graphics if they actually care to do so. No gameplay and we didn't see any interesting settings either. I know the trailer isn't suppose to be too long but look at Clair Obscur expedition 33 reveal trailer we got some idea of what the gameplay looks like and what is going on in the world outright and now I'm already interested.
Unironically I won't spend a dime on any game that doesn't feature beautiful women, especially smokin' anime babes with fantastic yammers. Zero shame. Because of this, I haven't bought a Western game in well over 10 years. Call it coomer or weeb or whatever, I don't really care. That being said, at the end of the day, y'know buy what you want! We all work for our money, we can spend it however we want. Someone else is always going to provide exactly what I'm looking for. And they're going to get my money.
I’m hyped truly I am. It’s naughty dog and even tho I wasn’t a fan of part 2 when it came out my opinions have changed on it and now it’s one of my favorite games. But I’m just tired of them pushing this. I have nothing against female leads. But every big ps game now are focusing on female leads. Like can we get some more male leads. We get it women are strong too you don’t gotta erase all male characters. That’s all I’m saying. This gonna be fire tho.
To show you how much of a 😼 Druckman is , they didn't even dare mentioning TLOU2 when they tried to bait us by reminding us what projects Naughty dog worked on , yes all that cool and all , but how many of those people who worked on those timless gems weren't fired or forced out of the company so Druckman can have hos way with it , this is not 2020 anymore when you can blame it on " hating female leads in video games" people actually saw now what it's like to take the fun out of the video game and turn it into a 10 hours lecture about how horrible you are as a gamer for refusing to eat the slop , and the fact that you're trying to sound cool by running with that narrative forgetting the fact that stellar blade existed in 2024 shows the hypocrisy in it's uglist form .
Im gonna hold most of my judgement till it comes out but the sub title "heretic prophet" kinda sounds like they're gonna make a commentary on Christian beliefs? I'm a Christian so I'm a little hesitant as to what they mean by "prophet" and what the story is about🙄
I thought that the trailer was alright, liked the aesthetic, but the description was more interesting overall. Disliking the game already, because of Druckman, I do get since he’s sniffing his own farts most of the time and the ADs all over the trailer were abysmal too lol.
I actually can’t wait to try it.. it looks fun I can careless about the gender or if she’s gay as long as the story is good and gameplay is great that’s all that matters to me I’ll be pre ordering when available
Great observation, rage bait. The vocal minority, being only 1 digit percentage, can and actually does shape public opinion that the big mass of people are influenced by. Creating an opinion other all to easily lazily adopt. Basic human attributes at home in all walks of life. The trailer provocative and gets people talking. I know this means mission achieved. More insights into the game and the world will paint the picture Intergalactic deserves and will evaporate the snap judgements of the first hour. I do not know a person after 2 minutes in real life. How do haters know how Jordan is like after 2 minutes? ....*sigh*
The main character in this needed a lining. Her buzz cut is fine but her head looks unfinished. Also, the dialogue just isn’t intriguing. Then the tired adverts came in and the boof ass 80s music started playing. I just wasn’t impressed with this trailer.
i disagree about ellie, in the 1st tlou. ellie was basically ready to do anything even die for a cure to be made. literally thats why joel didnt tell her, what really happened.
Lokks like the next Last Of Us game is far far away then, i will give this game a chance naughty dog's graphics are amazing and some of there games are classics.👍
I honestly dislike both the woke and anti woke group in video games. Woke force ideas (please stop). Anti woke say create your own ip instead of switching well known characters (I agree with this part), but under our demands (Are you serious? Censorship much?). Both are destroying creativity in the gaming industry. Smh. It’s impossible to know what this game actually about in this stage. Looks unique. I love Stellar Blade. Just brought Nier for the first time. It’s okay to have a variety of main characters both male and female. I care about gameplay and story the most. Video game are meant to be fantasy driven and in some genres imitating real life. Both sides come off as miserable and sometimes both sides are right and wrong.
3:00 3MG I know you probably from the hood like me, so you're probably liberal, but lets not downplay the DEI agenda thats definitely being pushed in games right now. it started with TLOU1 DLC with the gay kids story, thats when woke Neil Druckmann took over from Any Hennig. then it went from that to characters giving full on lectures chastising players about pronouns in Dragon Age Veilguard, to masculine female characters like Abby killing all your favorite male characters in TLOU2, to the Concord woke character design debacle. Concord literally just stole Jabali's character design from Apex Legends' Seer... then Mortal Kombat 1 changing 2 fan-favorite male characters to female. (Sektor & Cyrax) & now, yet another apparently lesbian, butch female protagonist... its like, I been a liberal my whole life, but I see why Trump won... people are getting sick & tired of this shit man & I don't blame them.
fantastic trailer and the cherry on the cake of the whole event. and I am very sorry and disgusted that naughty dog instead of admiration has to face this stream of idiotic hate. ugh
The hate will be short lived, as it will launch, it will flop, it will be memed and quickly forgotten like every other game like this. Either it be Forspoken, Concord, Unknown 9 and so many others in the dustbin of failure.
As a guy who’s been shaving his own head for over 20 years, it’s hard (if not impossible), to get it that short and perfectly even, by holding the clipper upside down like that. Any barbers here? Back me up. That’s not how you hold a clipper when shaving a scalp.😁
What does mean “as that”? What you all people have problem with? It’s normal realistic looking character and you have problem with that? I know, the Marvel trash characters are better than this, right? I am sick of people bashing on everything, really… So to answer your question, I have no problem playing this character, because everyone looks different and the most important thing about character is their character, lol. I am curious about the storyline.
@Southpaw22 statistically how many women have bald head? Is it minority or majority? Statistically how many women slurping smoothies like that when they're on the call, you have no manners? Your mom didn't teach you? You grow up in the jungle or something? Statistically how many women have that kind of body? Women have triangular shape body not square, square is statistically male body. So tell me what part of it is normal? Story again with the story how come you get engaged in the story if the main character is not really interesting? There is plenty good story which main character is ugly but they have qualities in other side of the field, like Shrek sure He is not handsome but Shrek is funny, he is interesting in his own way, now this you have bald androgynous women that have no manners and seemingly rude, the look on her face is not something you find in trustworthy person.

@@mikegutierrez7278so you like TLOU2?
Can you enlighten us what is wrong with the character?
Amy Hennig (the creator of Uncharted) didn’t leave Naughty Dog for nothing
She was fired.
As a head shaver since 1994, the way she held those clippers is currently the only reason to make me not like this game.
Aside from that...
It absolutely >IS< fair to pre-judge this game.
The media as a whole, has been "uplifting" women by crapping on men for literally the last HALF-CENTURY.
Characters like Ellen Ripley, Laura Croft and Sarah Connor were beloved precicely because they stood on their own...but they are ANOMOLIES...especially in the last 10 years.
Even Michelle Yeoh, who got famous being a beautiful pageant winner willing to get bashed up in HK action films, is suddenly throwing her co-stars, directors AND FANS under the bus by complaining about women somehow not getting adequate opportunities in show business.
The entire point of all this is to elicit the exact reaction they're getting.
So putting on the surprised Pikachu face that people are now reacting with blatant prejudice after all this is gaslighting at it finest.
EDIT: Just saw a vid about the voice actress that plays the main character.
Yeah, the people that pre-judged this game were exactly right.
Finally see a comment on this.. 20yrs shaved close hair shaver here.. I saw that and was like. Who in their damn mind clips their hair like that with clippers 🤦🏽♂

What you mentioned here is what I've been seeing for the past ten years since the SJWs/Third Wave Feminism that many have forgotten about came to the scene in 2013/2014. It just goes to show that trends from the 2010s refuse to die, same with the right wing side of things the political people on that side of the spectrum refuse to let go of certain things.
There's nothing wrong at all with seeing different races, genders, etc as protagonists. What makes this trailer eye-rolling is that we literally had an xbox showcase where 70% of the games showcased featured the tiresome trope of a masculinized "strong woman of color". We've seen Flintlock, Dustborn, Unkown 9 all flop. So here comes this trailer and it's like they're not reading the room. The trope is tiresome and played out. It has nothing to do with "racism" or "misogyny". It's just seen a repeating pattern and it's getting stale.
You forgot Fable. Lol
@@asra6886 Ugh. I try not to put the image of that hideous creature in my head. 😅

@@robertbarga3694 I absolutely agree with you and your first statement above. And seeing how this has happened for the past ten years, it's not only tiring, but depressing as heck.
Female characters in video games in the past, while some see them as sex icons, were able to have their own personalities, fighting abilities, etc. without shoving down propaganda down our throats every time we played the games or watched the movies and tv shows...Nowadays, EVERYTHING has to be eye-catching and hidden scummy tactics just to get something out the door, by corporate board members who are extremely out of touch with their consumers they might as well stop making games and focus on making electronics and movies while they're at it.
Video games aren't just about stories. Character design is a big part of its marketing.
you arw right and it makes sense, you are going to see your character for pretty much the entirety of the game, i dont know why they made her in a polemic way, naughty dog literally released their trailer comments deactivated. Lets be honest, if you make a game you should read users feedback, they're the one who are going to buy the game.
Fr bro gaming is fked up rn
Exactly
Exactly.... Either we get over dramatic beautiful women protagonist or some stud type protagonist... Can we just get an average female that can be badass protagonist.. This game will get goty watch smh
story is what makes it work, dasnt matter if the engine is amazong, thats how they ruined tlou2
If this game was under any other company it wouldn't get as much it is. Neil Drunkman is probably one of the most hated guy in gaming because of what he did in LOU2. Story wise he made very questionable decisions characters and story wise to emphasize certain things
Small group of people. Alot us just like gaming "for FUN" an dont search for every bad thing a game do or dont do. Alot of us have busy lives an just wanna relax.

@SuperFlashDriver i fail to understand what the point is of all the activism. What do these people hope to achieve? The end game is not evident and I fail to understand it logically.
Its almost as if they want to prove outwardly that they are somehow "better" than straight people. Not sure if the basis of the logic even sticks.
I agree to a point. My buddy JJ from the ROE (Residence of Evil) talked about it when I brought it to his attention. It was on his JJ vs Evil channel. He wasn't sure about the gameplay. But I liked the overall 80s vibe. It was when I told him that Naughty Dog disabled the comments and he says that's never a good sign. He said Naughty Dog kinda dug themselves a hole when doing that. I even told my mother about and she's no gamer. But her point was they might've disabled comments to prove a point. It's a neverending argument that never ends well. To a point I can see that. But I don't think Naughty Dog did themselves any favors by disabling comments. Feedback is always important. I'm sure Sony are perhaps telling Neil Druckmann that this game is a disaster and they need to fix it now or Neil will either be fired or at least be forced to step down as Chairman of Naughty Dog. I wouldn't blame them if they did that. So yeah. Naughty Dog really dropped the ball on this game.
It’s Neil Druckmann writing it. I’ll pass. Still not over TLOU 2

Oh so funny..
Bro! I like your comments. Neil Druckman and his developers are simply creators. Let them come out with what they create and if you don’t like it just pass your way. They can’t please everyone. But you still can go further and try to appreciate what is fundamental like the deepest gameplay they promise and the story and everything else that defines Naughty Dog’s brand.
Guys! I respect your opinion but never judge a book by his cover. I think that for everything that Naughty Dog has already done in the game industry, THEY DESERVE MORE RESPECT. So, be patient and let them finish and come out with the final product and then you will be able to judge them.
You cant talk sense to incels bro. They swarm together because they WANT to whine about something. This place gives them a voice amongst other incels which they dont have irl.
Almost none of those Naughty Dog devs that MADE those great games we remember and love, are still in the company. The OG guys and girls was pushed out or left. And now its filled with activists and the leftovers. Its the same with BioWare and many others. Thats why most new AAA games are crap. So they dont deserve any respect, because they are not the same team, outside the name.
Cheers.
I agree with Jade. Naughty Dog is nothing more than a shell of what it use to be. That's why they haven't graced us with another Jak and Dexter... the original creators are GONE and that means this is just a new company that uses the legacy of what use to be a great developer, to push their agenda and social activist. This is why that company will shut down... or be sold to a bigger company that appreciates their fan base and IPs.
The wounds are still fresh with gamers.
Naughty Dog and “Duckman” along with Sarkeesian haven’t stopped disrespecting gamers and have been very open about their agenda.
It goes all the way back to Gamergate 1.
The arrogance of the The Last of Us Part II was a middle finger to fans and gamers.
Shutting down comments and banning honest questions on Steam is saying a lot about themselves.
This will make or break Naughty Dog.
It says more about modern audiences and their “freedom of speech”. The internet would be a far more interesting place without all that whining.
Btw… a lot of (silent) gamers enjoyed TLOUII. The loud minority does not equal the narrative you think there is.

It's not forcing inclusion if the creators want to make something we should respect their art. As long as they're making the character if they want to make it is not force.
Gamers are some of the most whiniest, toxic people. Is it her shaved head or is it the other thing? We don’t even know much about the game yet. There’s plenty of white dude protagonists and there always will be. The same group of people that tell other people on the internet to “cry” or “cope” are doing the same thing. ND is known for their story driven characters and they had the Uncharted franchise where the protagonist was a straight white dude. Also, the TLOU 1 with Joel. This was announced as another franchise, not just one game.
The problem is people are listening to other crazy UA-camrs and not forming their own opinions. Are you actually annoyed or did someone else tell you that you should be? Some people would have rolled their eyes if this was another white dude. Lose lose situation. Just enjoy games. They’re incredible.
Dawg I was thinking the same thing. The game itself can be epic. I don't care if the MC is some bald head girl. Now it seems the game may get canceled all because "Oh no! Bald woke girl! Trash the whole game!".

@@mgbm8335 most people dont like ugly characters. Deal with it
It’s not the look of the character that’s making people mad. It’s the connotation that comes with making characters who look like this under certain writers/studios. Everytime we see a smug, snarky, angsty female character with a weird haircut, it makes people think of Batwoman, She-Ra, Captain Marvel, and any other character who has the archetype that’s written terribly.
Naughty Dog and specifically Neil Druckmann has been going out of their way to make things off putting to the audience, and it results in them handling it terribly. So people can’t be upset when we see something very reminiscent of other terrible media in a ND game. Just feels like it’s possible that it can happen again here. And I hope it doesn’t, because I love this aesthetic.
I will never dislike a game simply because of how the main character looks. I want a good game, period. I will give this game a shot and hopefully Naughty Dog delivers another solid IP. BUT, if it turns out that this IS just a woke agenda-pushing game that sucks, then I will criticize it as such.
Nah its not that deep lol People just STILL mad about what they did to JOEL. Plain and simple. Cae closed.
Not a single person thought Joel was going to survive in The Last of Us 2, i;m upset with the shitty writing that lead to his death. The story was full of plot contrivances which are totally out of place for the characters.
@Evilatem Lol of course they didn't, it was leaked before release. Duh! 🤪 Jokes aside, It's the way they did it. People would not be upset with his demise if it was done properly and more thought was put into it and wasn't senseless. I think a sacrificial end would have been a better move. Heck, even if it was to save Abby.
@@theandroids Even before the leaks, everyone thought either Joel or Ellie would die. Go watch/play the first 1/2 hour of the Last of Us again. Joel was always a "screw everyone but me and my family" type of guy even before the outbreak. When you are first trying to escape town, Tommy says to Joel that they should stop and help a family with a kid on the road by saying :
Tommy: We should help.
Joel: Drive.
Tommy: Hey, come on, they got a kid.
Joel: Yeah? So do we! DRIVE!
Same thing when Ellie says to stop and help the "wounded" guy. Joel says "It's a trap! GET DOWN!" then tries to run the guy over.
At no point would Joel have stopped to save Abby when they were being overrun by the infected.
ND said that the game was an anti-revenge game. The problem with that is Abby got her revenge and got to live out her life happily but Ellie lost everything for revenge. So it's giving mixed messages at best and it's poorly written at worst.
There's a whole sub plot about Ellie's fungus in her brain becoming larger hinting that she might not be immune to the spores just very slow to turn and it's causing her erratic behavior.
That is on a random paper in the hospital. Why wasn't THAT a main story line thread?
Just SOOOO much potential great story wasted.
@@Evilatem Growth, guilt, and character development. They could have also created a great story with a redemption arc for Joel before he sacrifices himself to save Abby. There could have been an entire Abby and Ellie team for the next game or DLC, etc. Obviously, some people at that company hated Joel with a passion, and not everyone agreed with the direction, hence the leak. Oh well... another great sequel that never was.
i expected joel to die.... apparently he 'gained' autism 40k but failed his mission and now he's dead in a stupid way.
'revenge' bad.... sonic 3 did it better.
usually i would turn games like this away and search else where. but naughty dog was part of my child hood and im hoping at least one game will work out. so until the gameplay and release comes, i'm willing to give this the benefit of a doubt.
This is one of the more reasonable takes I've heard around this game. 99% of people's comments in the trailer for the game, are super reactionary and cannot explain their reasoning at all, blindly scream "WOKE" based on the most loose and miniscule 'evidence', and project a hell of a lot more into the game, than they have actual information about it.
If it turns out to have heavy push of gender ideology like for example the latest Dragon Age game, then it will be criticized appropriately, but until we see the actual gameplay and story in practice and at length, no such accusations can reasonably made from the 4 minute trailer that we got, which was pretty much just a mood piece and you can only get what's the art style and visual themes they are going for, and nothing else from it.
I just hate how ugly and unlikable the main character is, it's as simple as that, she's instinctively repulsive.
Also, Naughty Dog was never good at gameplay, once they f up visuals and characters there's nothing left.
Gamers: ‘We just wanted a good game.’ Naughty Dog: Best I can do is cringe.
You're in every video leaving the same stupid comment, peak sadness
What's with this terrible trend of making main character as bland and faceless as possible?
This breaks all immersion for me.
I like space settings. But her design and attitude. Oh god. So repelling.
I'd still play this game if the story is good :/
We'll see I guess.
Yes, she have an attiude. because the way she suck on the straw.
Let's be honest, ultimately it's because she's bald headed
Why is there no middle ground? I am willing to give this a chance as long as the gameplay is done right! Haters crying over a trailer 😂😂😂
This is exactly what I feel like at the moment. I’m a conservative man but playing as a bald headed female doesn’t bother me in the slightest. As long as the game is good and the woke shit is not there then I’m all in.
The people that are hating on this game just because of the gender or what they assume is the sexual orientation of the protagonist are the ones with the real issues. I'm a heterosexual married man with two teenagers. I couldn't care less if the character is gay, bi or whatever. I care about the story, graphics, animation and gameplay. Played TLOU and the TLOU2 and did not give a crap that Ellie was gay. I drive a truck, listen to country and enjoy camping and other outdoor activities. The guys that are dissing this game will be the ones missing out, because TLOU2 was awesome. TBH, I'm a little biased because I love the zombie genre and days gone was also a great game...lol
Ellie was gay in TLoU, and no one (mostly, obviously) cared, man. TLoU2 was just a hot, steaming pile of garbage, dressed up to look like fine cuisine. That someone is so damn petty, so vengeful, so miserable, that they would go across the country to hunt down a single guy during a literal apocalypse, however many years after the events of the first game... and then the dude saves your life during your little hunt, and brings you to safety, and you still kill him? Not just kill him, but absolutely massacred him, and in front of his surrogate daughter? Which in turn just robbed us of an absolutely fantastic character, which was advertised to return and have a prominent role?
Like, that ALONE was enough for me to say f-ck that game.
But I can give another example, and this time it's more of pointing out how f-ed up this game's character writing is: Ellie gets hate from an older guy while he's drunk, who doesn't like seeing her with Dina. Yeah, the old man was wrong for that. Joel comes in and defends her, and then... she gets mad at Joel, who was on her side, because she's upset with him, because she wasn't given a choice to give her life for the cure with the Fireflies, even though she was unconscious and being operated on without her consent as it was, and she blames Joel for robbing her of her destiny or purpose or some BS, and just... ugh. This whole drama didn't matter in TLoU. Ellie either already knew the whole truth, or at least that Joel was lying about the Fireflies at the end of the game, and just accepted it. Why? Because Joel was that important to her, and understood that he was protecting her. And this scene... irks me to no end. Then at the end, the old man eventually apologizes to the girls, and even makes them food for the road, and Ellie just... yeah. I hate it. And NOTHING progressed the plot, it was just LGBT propaganda shoved in for the hell of it. Seriously, people are dying every single day to undead, cordyceps-controlled flesh-addicts. Who actually cares about someone's sexual orientation? Who ACTUALLY has the time or energy to care about such things? Holy hell...
But to each their own, ya know? If you enjoyed it, then at least someone did lol.
I can't imagine going through life being triggered by this stuff. Must be exhausting.
I'm honestly pretty sick of the grifters. The second a game drops that has a potential "woke" character ( which she doesn't even seem to be. she just seems like a tough chick) people start hating. It's honestly the worst part about being a part of the gaming community.
“Realistic” writer Neil Druckman thinks that an average body woman fighting a giant robot with no armor and nor superpowers only wearing casual clothes makes sense.
Even Doom Guy wears an armored suit despite being a naturally powerful character. Lol
Tough chick = woke nowadays. If Lara Croft came out today she'd be woke Uncharted.
@ Laura Croft doesn’t have a nasty personality despite being a tough female.
Literally every woman Neil Druckmann writes has a nasty personality. People gave Ellie in the first game a pass because people saw her she being an angsty and hurt teenager. It became more noticeable in Uncharted 4 with Nadine. And it just became blatantly obvious with the last of Is 2 where every female is just extremely nasty mean-spirited personality.
@@petermj1098 like Cowboy Bepop right?
Or Nathan Drake when he killed hundreds of enemies built like tanks right? The protagonists had full armor plates in the shooting scenes right?
We know almost nothing about the game.
If It comes out it's another Veilguard (wich I don't think), don't buy it, but until that making these strong assumptions it's bullshit and childish.
@ The trailer only implies that it is a hack and slash fighting. Even other hack and slash characters have some superpowers and protection. Even though the Prince from the Prince of Persia is a mere human and has a magical sword, and he still was super athletic and WORE ARMOR.
Uncharted literally has a duck and cover system and was while being chased by a tank and had to maneuver in Uncharted 2. Nathan Drake didn’t just jump in the middle of open battlefield and start destroying the tank. Lol
Spike Spiegel fights mere human characters in Cowboy Bebop not giant robots. Spike still got his own butt seriously kicked by other expert killers/fighters who are on his level and had to actually prepare in order to defeat some of them later. Spike is a former high ranking gangster and knows how all criminals think so he already knows what to expect from them. Spike’s approach life in general is all about being Jeet Kune Do calm. Spike calmly acts like he an average person to track a bounty and only fights when he has to. Spike still needed to maneuver in fire fights despite being an expert marksman. Lol
All I learned is that this new character has a big lightsaber, has some flying tech, likes anime, and likes to drink soda, I guess used to be friends with Lalo Salamanca. Lol
I guess showing off actual GAMEPLAY systems like armor, powers, specific human skill sets isn’t important to Neil Druckmann, so I assume there isn’t any.
Naughty Dog literally never had an armor system in Uncharted or The Last of Us games as well and it still shows they don’t in this game.
This looks fine so far. She doesn't seem like an annoying character at all yet?
Honestly the trailer wouldn't have gotten as much crap if they showed any actual gameplay and action. instead they foolishly assumed the story elements and Naughty dogs past success would be enough not realizing Naughty dogs reps been in the can since TLOU2. Turning off the Comments only showed their lack of confidence or at worst cowardice when facing criticism, which only added fuel to the fire
Game looks good to me. Naughty Dog don't miss when it comes to game play
Anytime something makes a global impact, it will be used as a weapon. And videogames have reached that level globally
I miss nathan drake 🥲
Go play it then.
@ no.
@@xTwizil Miss the character but don’t want to play uncharted? Ok.
Maybe Naughty Dog are trying to stretch their legs. As a creative, I'd be tired of the white guy, neckbeard archetype. I see the 80's, a punkish, shaved-head Ripley & am down with it. Once again, it's only forced when it's not the same tired white guy I've been forced to play since the mid 80's. Others have have entered the industry and have stories they'd lile to tell also. Those that don't like it, go play Kingdom Come and its lik if people that don't match their mirror reflection offends them.
EXACTLY
Tired of this. GTA 6 is gonna be the same maybe not as bad but still. And as of now in the main naughty dog channel, comments are off🥰.
😂 Naw women twerking on car roofs is crazy work.
Basement dwellers only like muscular men, anyone else is automatically bad even if they know almost nothing about the game and character
Exactly, and if you want their money you have to complay. This game is dead on arrival.
“Do I have to play as a bald Asian?! Breaks my immersion!”
“Gonna go back to playing something more relatable like Stray 🐈”
This comment section… I’ll keep my opinion to myself on this one.
I mean, if you wish to comment on it, you can if you want to. I don't mind hearing what other people have to say about one topic or another.
Everyone is soooo annoying dude I’m so tired of everyone bitching and crying about every game that comes out. The game looks dope idk what people are complaining about it hasn’t even come out. you can’t make everyone happy and sadly these days, looks like you can’t make ANYONE happy. 🙄
Ok you woke liberal weak person go cry!!
There is no lack of females in games:
- Bayonetta
- Ellie
- Dina
- Aloy
- Senua
- Abby
- Metroid
- Lara Croft
- Jill Valentine
- Zelda
- Samus
- Faith
- Ada Wong
It's funny how more than half of the people you mentioned only came out in the last decade or so
Crack would be a phat ass, long hair and an ability to kick ass without being center of attention!!
They're making every dish on the menu taste like anchovies 😂😂😂
..the too cool for school attitude is wack and over done😢
They can no longer tell a cohesive story with the true and tried structure and suffer greatly for it!?
This video is on point.
Neil Druckmann is the reason this game is getting hate, and he deserves it. He openly antagonised fans of TLOU who were upset with the direction he decided to take with the story of the sequel. Many people believe Neil Druckmann is a hack and a snake. They believe he got to the position he did by taking credit for work, which was a group effort. That he is responsible for fundamentally changing the ethos of Naughty Dog for the worse. That now he doesn't have the truly talented devs at Naughty Dog to hold his hand because they left the studio, he will fall flat on his face. Sony and Naughty Dog bought into the Druckmann hype, and now they are reaping what they sowed. Future Naughty Dog games will automatically lose hundreds of thousands of sales before they even get released if Druckmann is associated with them. RIP Naughty Dog.
If she doesn’t have a love interest like Alloy and doesn’t mention her sexuality, I’ll play it.
To those angry gamers, You guys aren’t mature enough to get your point across effectively which is why corporate doesn’t acknowledge you. You have the right to being bias with your entertainment bc your paying for it. But calling everything woke or making fun of lesbians just makes you look intolerant of other groups having an opportunity to be in a game
Respectfully, what do you mean when you said it was dumb that Ellie was mad at Joel for not letting her chose to live? From her point of view Joel stopped the docters from making a cure that would've saved countless people. I'd be pretty mad if Joel did that to me.
So that wasn’t the original narrative and even still, that’s an amazing relationship situation of a father daughter for a part 2. Even if she grows up and says “ Hey I could’ve made an impact” also with her growing she finding her self, it makes sense yes but it was driven differently when Anita sarkesian came in and caused so much and they revamped a lot of the story, so they gutted so much story between Joel and Ellie, that confrontation between them two was an ending not so much the beginning. Then they turned half the scenes into flash backs man. Yeah they did a lot of changing. So instead of did proper build up for Ellie to feel what she truly feels they immediately had her on some fuck u Joel my body my choice but gutted all parts before it that would’ve made those sequences amazing.
@@Not3mg I agree; I think it would've made a better story, that still had that same theme of hate that Neil wanted, if they just had the plot from the flashbacks.
6:13 This idea that nobody wants to see a female lead is a misleading deflection from the real problem. The story's character has to be likable to the target audience. They have to empathize with him/her to be invested in and enjoy the story.
13:45 Did you think Joel lied to Ellie about the cure and what he did to the fireflies for fun? 😉 It didn't come out of nowhere. We knew it would be a problem once she finds out since the end of the first game. And yes, almost every guy died...but almost every girl died too. 😂 The two genderless protagonist went on their crusade to avenge their FATHERS. The message wasn't men bad. The women did good and bad things just like the men. And Joel ultimately impacted BOTH Ellie and Abby's arcs for the better. 👏
Tbh we didn’t know it’ll be as big of a problem to where they change a large portion of the game and remove the father daughter side of things.
Some elements of the trailer looked promising, but I can't help but be very skeptical with that Saint's Row reboot/ Concord birthing person character design. So sick of that nonsense. It has ended franchises, yet developers keep pushing this stuff.
It was this years 'save the best for last" trailer so its the most hyped game after GTA n MP4
I understand your point. Just have the developers make good games without any political agendas.
Gaming audiences make the discussion a political one… lead by example as they say.
Where’s the political agenda? Is it that she’s a woman? She’s bald? She’s Asian? That’s not an agenda, you’re just obsessed. Please stop being such a snowflake, it’s the future. Live in it.
No studios does that, mate. Stop looking for problems that aren't there.
You literally saw a women shave her head while in space, as if that's new and hasn't been done since the 1980's sifi movies, and somehow that's political!?!?
Do you even know wtf the definition of political is?!?! I guess the millions and millions of black women walking around right now with shaved heads are all making a political statement???
Man listen I just want a great game with an amazing story with replay value to be honest ion care bout the character she looks dope asf I’m a big 80s 90s guy but I’m actually tired of playing as a white man time to switch things up a bit🙄😂
1:01 is that mk11 kung Lao
lmfao yoooooo shxt now that i think about it.......
I’ll shorten my video with this statement. Someone wrote my take was bad and said everyone has a right to relate to a character. The thing is I agree with that point to, however everyone can enjoy a game from a different perspective, my enjoyment from games are t always from relatability but often times story telling and escape. Just because I enjoy the escape and deep story doesn’t mean I wouldn’t want ppl to enjoy a game because they may relate to a character. I can understand if people are annoyed with the thought of another game forcing certain things but this trailer didn’t give that and the assumption because of a female having a hair cut is wild.
@@Not3mg it's the obvious ugliness and the eyebrows mostly I think . And the cocky arrogant attitude.. Most people don't relate to that.
Idgaf.. I'm playing this game when it comes out
just say you dont give a crap and move on instead of whatever the F#$k this video was save a lotta people time.
Your take is not bad. I’m a woman gamer and I’m sick of this. I just want good looking characters in the game and I want to escape
guy you seem not to get it majority of gamers are male who grew up with mothers and sisters looking like women long hair make up breast and ass . how you are trying to sell a flat chested character with a bald head to male and charge 70 bucks for it is beyond me . cant you see Stella blade ?
People are just hating and discriminating way to much. ...and certain UA-camrs are hyping these same people up and getting rich while the gaming community suffers.
Yeah I don’t agree with it. Ppl are passing judgement without seeing more on it
People pass judgment because we know who is in charge. See through the smoke and mirrors and who is pulling the strings they have other agendas at hand that we are not down with. Make these games all you want but you gonna lose money
The gaming community is only suffering because of the industry
@@Beyblade_worrior You listened to UA-camrs who cant get view's without rage baiting... Those rage baiters screamed for months on end that Silent Hill 2 Remake was woke garbage. They made dozens of video's saying the women in the trailers looked ugly when they looked fine. They made videos CELEBRATING the low pre order numbers, they wanted this game to fail and the team behind it to get laid off!...
They pretended like they never talked sht when the game finally came out in October, to overwhelmingly positive reviews. Everything they said in the lead up to the launch was a load of bull, it seriously hurt the pre-order numbers for the game. It turned out to be without question the best horror game of the year, alot of people say it should have been nominated for GOTY over the EldenRing DLC. It eventually became a best seller after the internet caught on that it was a great game and the outrage over the trailers was fking stupid!!!
Now y'all are at it again, the women in the trailer has been deemed not hot enough! Smear, smear, smear, celibate when it fails, and act like ya never cared to protect your ego if it turns out good... These people need to grow tf up.
Intergalactic, no joke
They ACTUALLY HAD a winning character design.
Slender her muscle mass down and give her actual medium to long hair, and she actually would've looked great. Her face didn't even look bad either.
They we're SO CLOSE but chose to be in thier own way.
That’s Tati Gabrielle. She’s literally gorgeous in real life. Even when she has short, pixie hair she looks good. But they just had to shave it smh
@@jayfrancelf Maybe she looks more like the character without make up. I expect that people have distorted views of the range of how women can look naturally, because of the culture of constant deception and simulation of features one doesn't have or hiding ones they do have, by the use of make up, among other things. Plus the stereotypes of how a woman ''should'' look like (long hair, a dress etc. and all the other arbitrary cultural bs) also ' pollute' people's expectations.
@mitkoogrozev well see... if someone else is marketing a game... shouldn't she aleast lean feminine with nice hair and not be Aang.
Yes, clearly, not every woman should have to meet Stellar Blade standards.
But wouldn't you want an audience to have a reaction of "oh wow she's cute and interesting" instead of "face palm - oh Jesus lord help me"
I garentee you tge later is the majority of people giving "really dog?" style of disappointment judgement.
That's not them being whatever chud leaning buzz word... that's just the free market expressing disappointment.
------
Now, if it were up to me. Ratchet and Clank cartoon style cat animals for the art direction.
But yeah, character design and making sure most people like it are highly important in design philosophy.
Thiers a reason Goku is the DragonBall main character and Kurriren isn't.
How about they make the game and characters they want to make?
Ironically, people getting triggered just by looking at the character is proving that some people care more about how the character looks than the gameplay, story, voice acting, art direction, graphics, mocap, music, etc...😅
Well a character looks matter quite a lot in games. If you don't show any gameplay clips in the trailer and only show a ugly or I say a boring looking character as your lead in the whole trailer most people will going to complain about it and these days naughty dogs tries to push their agendas in games like they did in lou2 rather than making a enjoyable game... They specifically hires a actor as their protagonist which also happens to be a transs activist , this action clearly shows they will try again to push their agenda in this game too
A character heavily correlates to the story and gameplay. If a character is boring and unrelatable, why would I be interested in her story? If I don't care for a character and she is intentionally visually unappealing, why would I want to play as her?
From this short trailer, the voice acting also seemed really off-putting. The delivery during the conversation was straight-up wack, something that doesn't draw you in. Music and graphics are the only two things that seem to be good, but that's not enough, at least for me.
I think it's probably gonna be akira meets cyberpunk
Honestly with everything that's been going on with this DEI stuff
I think people are hating on this trailer because they expect it to be another addition to that ""Forced"" DEI agenda.
And because I know this is going to trigger some people, The Acolyte failed because it focused on forcing DEI and antagonizing Fans while blaming their Target Audience for Not Watching their show. So I ask you, if it was genuinely about Racism and Sexism for why The Acolyte failed, how is Arcane more successful?
I hate to say it but honestly, if people have a problem with it, they dont have to buy it. When companies say it, people get upset but its honest to god true. This is a brand new IP. They arent taking a previous game and changing it to fit a "woke" take. Its like me going after a new side scroller game because I'm a fan of 3rd person shooters. If they game fails because there wasn't an audience then let it fail. At least give it the chance every game deserves and turn the other way if it doesn't interest you.
The problem people have today is they think every game should be marketed for their needs. People dont go out and buy a game that they feel isnt their type of game already but now they have to throw shade for a game they were never going to buy anyways? Again, ai understand it when they take an existing IP but when its a completely new one, its the most ridiculous thing I've seen gamers cry about.
I agree
@@Not3mgeven with a new IP you can’t get an audience that isn’t there. Most gamers are still men most men don’t want to play as women most men want to play as a man. So we have the right to say we don’t and won’t play these games new IP or old IP doesn’t matter. Some games are great Horizon is one of my favorites. However look at the company, see who is in charge and what their agendas are. You can clearly see some people are just social justice warriors hiding behind keyboards and screens. They want to normalize the butch female which is just ridiculous. Women and men are different i never understood why women choose to look like a man when you so desperately want to be respected as women. Nothing will ever be good enough even if you have everything handed to you. But go ahead and have an issue with us. I would love to see all the bald headed ladies out there and all their rainbow hair colored friends support this game the same way all the other woke games have succeeded, Concord… Unknown awakening…. Soon to be the horrible Avowed like open your eyes 👀
Yes, but here's the issue. When you say "don't buy our game it's not for you" you can't do that when your game cost 250 million dollars. You can do that as a small indie game that cost 1 million dollars. Dragon Age Veilguard cost around 250 million. Even at 3 million sales they are at a net loss to this day. Imagine if they made a game that everyone wanted. Imagine.
@@Meltdownlv100 obviously whoever’s channel this is a cuck and doesn’t like me saying things goodnight folks enjoy your DEI wait for your beloved Rockstar to fall after NaughtyDog
@@cr3d294 you realize that's my point. A gamer isn't entitled to every game as if it should be marketed towards them. If it isn't your cup of tea, don't buy it and don't be toxic towards the devs for making a game not for you. As I said earlier though, if their game ends up failing because either the audience they wanted didn't buy the game or it's just genuinely a bad game, then let the company suffer the loss.
These are big corporations we are talking about. I couldn't care less if they decide to let their business burn because they feel the need to continue to make trash games to win social points or because the culture of the studio is too extreme. Let the market decide who stays and who fades. We just need to stop all this infighting amongst gamers and play the game we want to play without all those woke or anti woke nonsense
another DEI game , people tired of it
and worse the signs for it being one are so clear from company, studio, higher ups, design decisions and more
9:30 the prefacing is exactly why people don't like it, its coddling or fear to even say "i don't want this ___ as a MC" as if that's vile to say than just facts
I mean, the thumbnail answers it.
The main character is looking like Orlando Brown 😂.
Damn😂
did you see she has a long scare on the back of her head in the trailer
I think the trailer was just not well done anyway it did not get me interested in its characters at all. Graphics look good but at this point any AAA company can make some good graphics if they actually care to do so.
No gameplay and we didn't see any interesting settings either. I know the trailer isn't suppose to be too long but look at Clair Obscur expedition 33 reveal trailer we got some idea of what the gameplay looks like and what is going on in the world outright and now I'm already interested.
Why would anyone get hyped over a video game trailer with no gameplay?
Best take. The nay dayers get labeled as woke when we just wondering why games lost their heart
The only thing I didn't like about the trailer was the robot.
Honestly bro what worries me the most is this game looks like it might gonna be a souls clone
Unironically I won't spend a dime on any game that doesn't feature beautiful women, especially smokin' anime babes with fantastic yammers.
Zero shame.
Because of this, I haven't bought a Western game in well over 10 years.
Call it coomer or weeb or whatever, I don't really care.
That being said, at the end of the day, y'know buy what you want!
We all work for our money, we can spend it however we want.
Someone else is always going to provide exactly what I'm looking for. And they're going to get my money.
I’m hyped truly I am. It’s naughty dog and even tho I wasn’t a fan of part 2 when it came out my opinions have changed on it and now it’s one of my favorite games. But I’m just tired of them pushing this. I have nothing against female leads. But every big ps game now are focusing on female leads. Like can we get some more male leads. We get it women are strong too you don’t gotta erase all male characters. That’s all I’m saying. This gonna be fire tho.
I think the game will be fire I want to see more
People are still mad about the last of Us part 2
People still like They Laugh at us Part 2?
To show you how much of a 😼 Druckman is , they didn't even dare mentioning TLOU2 when they tried to bait us by reminding us what projects Naughty dog worked on , yes all that cool and all , but how many of those people who worked on those timless gems weren't fired or forced out of the company so Druckman can have hos way with it , this is not 2020 anymore when you can blame it on " hating female leads in video games" people actually saw now what it's like to take the fun out of the video game and turn it into a 10 hours lecture about how horrible you are as a gamer for refusing to eat the slop , and the fact that you're trying to sound cool by running with that narrative forgetting the fact that stellar blade existed in 2024 shows the hypocrisy in it's uglist form .
Im gonna hold most of my judgement till it comes out but the sub title "heretic prophet" kinda sounds like they're gonna make a commentary on Christian beliefs? I'm a Christian so I'm a little hesitant as to what they mean by "prophet" and what the story is about🙄
Did you not read the literal only text in the entire trailer?
I thought that the trailer was alright, liked the aesthetic, but the description was more interesting overall. Disliking the game already, because of Druckman, I do get since he’s sniffing his own farts most of the time and the ADs all over the trailer were abysmal too lol.
I actually can’t wait to try it.. it looks fun I can careless about the gender or if she’s gay as long as the story is good and gameplay is great that’s all that matters to me I’ll be pre ordering when available
So much brain rot in this comment section 😂
Great observation, rage bait.
The vocal minority, being only 1 digit percentage, can and actually does shape public opinion that the big mass of people are influenced by. Creating an opinion other all to easily lazily adopt.
Basic human attributes at home in all walks of life.
The trailer provocative and gets people talking. I know this means mission achieved. More insights into the game and the world will paint the picture Intergalactic deserves and will evaporate the snap judgements of the first hour. I do not know a person after 2 minutes in real life. How do haters know how Jordan is like after 2 minutes? ....*sigh*
now i know how aliens look
Thanks for giving such a fair and balanced take.
The main character in this needed a lining. Her buzz cut is fine but her head looks unfinished. Also, the dialogue just isn’t intriguing. Then the tired adverts came in and the boof ass 80s music started playing. I just wasn’t impressed with this trailer.
i disagree about ellie, in the 1st tlou. ellie was basically ready to do anything even die for a cure to be made. literally thats why joel didnt tell her, what really happened.
Lokks like the next Last Of Us game is far far away then, i will give this game a chance naughty dog's graphics are amazing and some of there games are classics.👍
I honestly dislike both the woke and anti woke group in video games. Woke force ideas (please stop). Anti woke say create your own ip instead of switching well known characters (I agree with this part), but under our demands (Are you serious? Censorship much?). Both are destroying creativity in the gaming industry. Smh. It’s impossible to know what this game actually about in this stage. Looks unique. I love Stellar Blade. Just brought Nier for the first time. It’s okay to have a variety of main characters both male and female. I care about gameplay and story the most. Video game are meant to be fantasy driven and in some genres imitating real life. Both sides come off as miserable and sometimes both sides are right and wrong.
3:00 3MG I know you probably from the hood like me, so you're probably liberal, but lets not downplay the DEI agenda thats definitely being pushed in games right now. it started with TLOU1 DLC with the gay kids story, thats when woke Neil Druckmann took over from Any Hennig. then it went from that to characters giving full on lectures chastising players about pronouns in Dragon Age Veilguard, to masculine female characters like Abby killing all your favorite male characters in TLOU2, to the Concord woke character design debacle. Concord literally just stole Jabali's character design from Apex Legends' Seer... then Mortal Kombat 1 changing 2 fan-favorite male characters to female. (Sektor & Cyrax) & now, yet another apparently lesbian, butch female protagonist... its like, I been a liberal my whole life, but I see why Trump won... people are getting sick & tired of this shit man & I don't blame them.
They gotta bring back jak and Dexter bruh
Lol dude no stop living in the past
That game will not sale and I’m a huge jak fan
@@AkaHoodie if the gameplay is good I'm getting it but Sony is not making a new jax so it's only wishful thinking
@ man i wish they would but i dont see Sony making another one since the last one flopped sales wise.
Wait wym?
fantastic trailer and the cherry on the cake of the whole event. and I am very sorry and disgusted that naughty dog instead of admiration has to face this stream of idiotic hate. ugh
The hate will be short lived, as it will launch, it will flop, it will be memed and quickly forgotten like every other game like this. Either it be Forspoken, Concord, Unknown 9 and so many others in the dustbin of failure.
The woke cabal aren't the only ones ruining gaming
10:24 guy next to buzzcut girl...is that Lalo from BCS?
What If the story is about a woke girl with a shitty attitude that matures into normality as the story progresses?
dont think people have female lead problem but different one
As a guy who’s been shaving his own head for over 20 years, it’s hard (if not impossible), to get it that short and perfectly even, by holding the clipper upside down like that. Any barbers here? Back me up. That’s not how you hold a clipper when shaving a scalp.😁
Who want to play as that??? 😂
What does mean “as that”? What you all people have problem with? It’s normal realistic looking character and you have problem with that? I know, the Marvel trash characters are better than this, right? I am sick of people bashing on everything, really…
So to answer your question, I have no problem playing this character, because everyone looks different and the most important thing about character is their character, lol. I am curious about the storyline.
@Southpaw22 statistically how many women have bald head? Is it minority or majority? Statistically how many women slurping smoothies like that when they're on the call, you have no manners? Your mom didn't teach you? You grow up in the jungle or something? Statistically how many women have that kind of body? Women have triangular shape body not square, square is statistically male body.
So tell me what part of it is normal?
Story again with the story how come you get engaged in the story if the main character is not really interesting?
There is plenty good story which main character is ugly but they have qualities in other side of the field, like Shrek sure He is not handsome but Shrek is funny, he is interesting in his own way, now this you have bald androgynous women that have no manners and seemingly rude, the look on her face is not something you find in trustworthy person.
