"Druckmann was interviewed on the Sony website as part of its ‘Creative Entertainment Vision’ presentation, which it describes as its long-term vision for where it “wants to be in 10 years, with an eye towards future technological advances”.
Asked how he envisions the fusion of storytelling and technology over the next 10 years, Druckmann said he thinks it’s getting easier for people with no technical ability to fully realize the ideas in their head.
“We’re seeing this exciting marriage of cutting-edge technology with traditional storytelling that’s pushing us into a future where enhanced fidelity isn’t just about achieving realism, but about broadening the spectrum from highly stylized visuals to ultra-realistic ones,” he said.
“This broadening of possibilities is fueled by increasingly accessible tools that allow even non-technical people to use their imagination and create worlds and narratives to their heart’s content.”
Druckmann then specifically cited AI as an example of this, stating that while it has its problems which have to be resolved, the technology itself can be used to expand what is capable in game development."

Thanks for great thoughts and nice job done.
Druckmann is a story writer. He creates stories. And produces documentaries. About himself. Self-promoting, his stories. That solve war and end hunger. With his man-bun. And his cardigan. That let you know he identified as a feminist for 3 years of the last decade.
Remember when Troy baker told us nft’s were the future and we were dumb if we weren’t on board?
"we can either hate. Or create". I think Troy thought he was very insightful when he said that, but no. Thankfully his friends gave him an ultimatum, either pull your head out of your ass, or get lost.
Troy Baker’s an incredible talent but if you listen to him talk about pretty much anything you realize how out of touch he is
@@brandonnumbskull58 Hot take: he’s a decent talent and oversaturated.
Lady Gaga is a good singer,and I like some of her songs, what the hell does she know about cameras?
*NFTs, never use an apostrophe to pluralize.
Also, comments are referring to him as "a talent" but it is simply "talent." You'd say, "We need to hire some good talent" or "Hire talent for this role." It is NEVER, "Hire a talent for this."
I'm sure his train of thoughts are: "They can't accuse me of Crunch if I don't have anyone working under me. You're so clever Drukman"
That's exactly what I thought😂😂
Neil didn't the get #1 boss spot at Naughty Dog until 2023. He's not innocent with the crunch stuff but he was far from the reason for it lol.
Wells has only been a financial figurehead since Jak and Daxter. It was always Druckmanns creative process that resulted in Crunch, starting with his attempt to completely rewrite U4's script.
Lack of crunch is causing these lame ass games that are 5 hours long, and take 5 years to make.......
@@iaqhexactly, hasnt anyone noticed games are actually worse now, without crunch??? So buggy or short or lame or woke or all of the above 🤮
It's actually impressive how little I think of Neil Druckmann at this point.
How many game developers do you think of on a daily basis…
I don’t think any game director wants you to think of them like that all the time
for no reason as well
Probably more impressive how he doesn’t think about you at all😂
@@Indigo_1001Kojima, everyday.
@@greathitnick3034Slob harder.
The Last of Us was a great game but Druckmann clearly let that success go to his head. He's in such a comfortable position where he feels he can say stupid shit and will assume people are gonna pat him on the back for it.
And he isn’t wrong. Games media constantly swoon over his BS.
He was a co creator of the first game with Bruce Stanley. Niel acts like everything was his idea and never acknowledges Bruce. His interviews after the episodes of the show were him beating himself off with his kiss ass team.
@@bananasean5145As a bonus, Druckmann did not include Bruce Stanley as a credit in the TLOU TV show
@@tehbeernerd To be fair he wasn't involved with the show so that makes sense.
@@bananasean5145 are you still holding grudges over that? pathertic.
With how game journalist glazed this guy and proclaimed to be the second coming of Kojima of the western games, you'll hear nothing negative about his statements lmao.
Ah yes the vague “game journalist” that you claim whatever you want to say they think with have nebulous that statement is.
Did you read the interview, games for decades been using AI to make games that’s what he means.
@@AL-lh2htyou really thought you sounded smart
@@AL-lh2htI checked all your other replies. You’re one of those that just start fights, complain & always have to be right about something. That has to be tiring bro…
That was Sarcheesian
Never forget the guy who reviewed TLOU2 for IGN and gave it a 10/10 later ended up working for Naughty Dog. Always seemed off to me
i mean its really 10/10 what do you expect?
@@vault29a It's not
Compared to the first game, the gameplay was improved, so was the level design, the graphics were far better and while the story didn't capture the magic that the first game had, it was still a good story. If it wasn't a 10/10, it was a solid 9. I'm not sure how "off" it really was.
@@vault29a It's really not.
Uh the plot thickens
At first glance I read drunkman
Honestly, I would rather heve it been one saying
Same difference
Always
Just FYI. Its a common misconception but procedural does not mean artificial intelligence.
Procedural generation has existed for years, particularly in games. Doesnt mean those games use artificial intelligence.
If I create tooling which can procedurally generate levels based on a set of rules I have defined, its not AI.
This
Why would it matter if it did use ai?
@TOAOM123 bc the word AI sounds good to investors who dont understand, so you can sell more shares and make more money
Ah yes, The Golf Of Us 2
On of my fav games of all time for me
@@gatewayrealtor664you probably haven’t played many then.
id play that.

@@Reardon. No, we won't forget and we won't forgive. You're free to gobble up all the slop you want, but we're not going anywhere. Go back to pre-ordering Assassins Creed: Wuz Shogunz n Sheeeeet.
It was also said that NFT would revolutionize gaming..
In my extremely biased opinion, their next game should be a new Jak & Daxter game.
I concur
Who would play Jax and Dexter. Our generation is to old for a kid game and the new generation doesn’t know what Jake and dexter
@bladerun1235 Well, they can learn. I'm sure the games could be popular with this new generation. I mean, look at Kirby and Crash Bandicoot
@@themoviecritic1092 Kirby didn’t took 10 yr break and crash bandicoot is just a legend. I love jak and daxter but it just not that popular.
@@themoviecritic1092 a uncharted game with drake daughter will be better idea
Game Dev here. at 0:45 you ask what the Studio Head is. It's complicated lol, different companies can have someone with that title, but they will do different things. In my experience, the Studio Head makes decisions based on what's best for the studio and it's not strictly about the game projects. It can be facility decisions too, reviewing budgets, being involved with marketing, things the staff needs, etc. Generally, the Creative lead like a Creative Director will come up with the story or premise of a game, Design Directors come up with gameplay and system features. Stuff like that. The Studio Head can say "No" to what the creative leads come up with. And in some cases the Studio Head can make a call and say "Do this." A creative lead and studio head are not always the same thing. Most of the time it's beneficial if these are two different people.
He surely made a bad decision killing of Joel in The Last of Us 2. Personally that ruined the franchise for me.
@@robertlawrence9000 Weak
@@MichaelDoesLifestupid haters gonna hate
@@robertlawrence9000 Joel dying isn't what you hate. otherwise no beloved character could be killed in anything. what you hate, i assume, is HOW he died. he died not acting like Joel. personally after some review i have come to not be bothered by it. i still have nit picks and larger issues with the game but Joels death is fine with me.
Meh, i have very low expectations of Naughty Dog and am 0 rush to play a new title from the studio.
It baffles me that this narrative still holds any weight. How can SIE be giving them creative control, but forcing them to make live-service games. Trusted Financially but only to make remakes and remasters? Long development cycles due to the removal of crunch, but the first studio to face lay-offs?
With all those titles Neil fancies himself a Kojima since he ran Henning and Straley out. And a Kojima he is not.
Neil is gonna ruin Naughty dog. One more tlou2 game and they are done
Neil never called himself anything. And he didn’t run Bruce or Amy out.
Bruce wasted to retire after TLoU1 but Druckmenn convinced him to stay for Unchartef 4
Kiddo this are just typical pr speech.
When the President of a company creates a title, and grants themselves that title? They are in fact, calling themselves something.
@@akibatube335 Did he really do that? My god this man has a huge ego.
Druckmann will be Naughty Dog's end
?
You base this on?
Bruce Stanley was the true genius behind the last of us. He reigned Druckmans ego in and made the narrative coherent and believable. As soon as Druckman pressed Stanley out of the studio, you could see how the second game´s narrative turned to absolute shit. Neil has no actual clue how to make people relate , because he is so detached from what an actual human being feels. He is so far up his own ass and such an ideologue, that whatever he does next, is gonna alienate even more players.
Thank you!
Exactly, Druckman is a semi competent writer with some interesting but overly ambitious ideas. Part 2 just from a baseline writing level is all over the place, flashbacks within flashbacks, characters just not getting screentime and two separate timelines sort of interweaving but not really until the end.
It's just a really messy game compared to the first.
I finished each TLOU two times and while part one was great, I liked part two more.
Agreed. The problem isn't even his ideology. The problem is the guy is literally drunk on his own farts he can't tell when his audience starts running for the bathrooms because of the fumes.
@@MoinWoll My condolences.
When Neil said that there next game would push the boundary, he was talking about TLOU2 remake from the ground up.
I have seen what Neil Drunkman has done to the Last of Us franchise. I'm not interested in anything related to it as long as he is in charge.
He made 2 great games so your loss
Yet, you’re here? No need to comment then?
What Neil has done? He created it... he can do kinda whatever he wants
@@greathitnick3034 He ruined the story. Only 1 great game and that was the first one.
@@robertlawrence9000 no he didn’t ruin it. Wait til the third game and judge it as a whole story. One game isn’t the whole story

I miss the Jak & Daxter naughty dog :(
Uncharted is fun but not my favourite franchise from them
TLOU 1 story was phenomenal with decent gameplay, while TLOU 2 story was pure garbage and pretty great gameplay
And idk, this gen it feels like Naughty Dog only likes to focus on TLOU.... 2 remasters, for 2 games that are already perfectly playable on PS5, and they canned the multiplayer standalone game... :/
I just want a good game that's NOT TLOU!
people will lose their jobs but not him tho so he doesn't care
Hes job is the most easy (obviously also difficult i seeevery job important not like him)
Somehow, it is NEVER the executives who risk losing their jobs to AI. Never mind that it would be far cheaper for a company to replace them, and that they’d probably do a better job.
No matter what type of game it is people will consoome cause pretty graphics and new game must buy right now
TLoU2 had the best gameplay from naughty dog ever. Yet people cat like others aren’t allowed to like it.
I though the point of games is gameplay
@@Indigo_1001the thing about tlou 2 is it’s a story driven game. It’s essentially an interactive movie. If the story isn’t up to standard, the game has a massive problem. No amount of pretty graphics or decent gameplay will change that.
@@marwana4834
“The game is an interactive movie”.
My dude did you play it? Play the game on its Grounded mode on one of its massive enemy confers and tell me it’s a “interactive movie”.
Also you never played a game with weak story but great gameplay? The game is still a action adventure game
@@marwana4834
It is an interactive movie if you watch the game through your favorite anti-woke UA-cam grifters playing the game and telling you what to think of the game.
The gameplay is anything but "interactive movie" with large levels with arena style stealth combat that allows variability and high replayability.
The core stealth action mechanics of tlou2 are the best in gaming especially the enemy AI. Yes even better than mgsv5 especially with how natural it feels to control the characters.
Loved the story and loved the gameplay! @@marwana4834
Why is it a black and white picture of Neil? Is he no more? 😂
if only lol.
That would be great.
He thinks he’s the shit
Inhumanity at it's peak....you guys will not even have a place in hell
I think that it would be wise for Naughty Dog to do a different IP to gain some traction back after TLoU Pt. 2. It was an extremely polarizing game, and it would be much easier to win the masses back with something that has the same magic as Uncharted: beautiful, engaging, adventurous, and incredible set pieces.
And free of painful woke sh*t.
Oh I cannot wait for every-single-video game requiring and internet connection or they're like 2+ TB in size because of this revolutionary AI crap...
Lol you nailed what the future looks like
Oh God that didn’t occur to me at all. 😢
Given that Troy Baker was promoting NFTs years ago, Druckman's statement ain't surprising.
I'd rather not with Druckman anymore. He's one of those elitist industry types that you cant help but try to avoid.
Well you’re here so you failed
Man Naughty dog is one of my favorite companies... Why do they have to push A.I., political agendas and endless remakes?
"No ground breaking exclusive release games."
Spiderman 2: what am I joke to you?
SM2 was good but iterative by all accounts
Game design and development is about creativity and artistic expression. AI has nothing to do with such concepts.
AI has been part of gaming for decades, the AI they are talking about is not the AI people are talking about right now
Unfortunately that isn’t for us to decide. If the bosses want to get rid of humans to write narratives, then they will do that in an instant. Labor is nothing but a line item to them.
If AI can be used to cut back on some of the more tedious parts of game development, then it can be used to free up developers to do the things they're actually passionate about. I personally think there's huge potential for awesome stuff, but I'm not super optimistic considering the direction a lot of the gaming industry is heading.
@@crediblesalamander8056you know deep down that it will never be used as a tool to help developers, but a hammer to make their jobs irrelevant.
@@tehbeernerdit’s so funny how people dunk on games oh there terrible boring woke etc but then at the same time I’m supposed to care about a developers job when they don’t care about me so that’s a personal problem technology will advance and people in the future future future will lose jobs that’s how it is
I would absolutely love a Jak & Dexter game or a complete remake of 1,2,3 in a bundle with visuals close to the newest ratchet and clank game for example, i know it’s extremely unlikely, probably impossible, but a man can dream 😭
If this dude keeps opening his mouth. He is going to make it cool to dunk on Daughty Dog.
It already is
It's always been cool to dunk on NG after TLOU2.
When I hear "speed up development," I think two things:
1. Reduction in quality
2. Overzealous developers abusing saved time to cram more junk into their games.
The speed of development should be the result of competence and experience, not technological shortcuts.
It really sucks he lost the support of Amy Henning (one of the best writers in the gaming industry), but after distilling all his bitterness in the plot of TLoU2 now he wants to give up trying and giving the task to machines? Dude needs to retire before he ruins something beyond any possibility of repair
Nowhere did he say that he will give everything to AI, instead he explained how it'll be a supplement to the creative process...
How are you just gonna make things up like that.
Just making shit up. Again, the best UC games are the ones he wrote the stories for. UC2 and UC4.
Where is this Amy Henning now?
Wtf did I just read 😂
Can they just fire this dude out of a Canon into the sun. Never made a good game and ruined naughty dog
The Last of Us 1?
Uncharted 4?
And even TLoU2 is a “good” game, not great but good
And he was heavily involved with all others uncharted games
@Indigo_1001 all sucked ass, all were over hyped all were snore fest at best
@@deason2365 you need help bro😢 why are you so mad?
Wish we'd get a remake of the Jak & Daxter trilogy. It doesn't have to be Naughty Dog, Toys for Bob did great with other remakes. We've got new games/remakes for Crash Bandicoot, Spyro the Dragon, Ratchet & Clank, hell even Destroy all Humans! But Jak? All we've got is PS2 ports to the store...

I think they're making a Savage Starlight game.
😮Oo
I dont know why but i really dont like the way neil druckman talks
I just hope and wish that the devolopers at Naughty Dog to be given time and mental support instead of crunching them to thier guts.
Can Naughty Dog make a game without Druckmann sounding like a pretentious d-bag whenever he promotes it. How are they gonna revolutionize gaming ? By just moving the right stick as gameplay?
ur just throwing the word pretentious around but it means literally nothing to you, da hell is the guy doing that’s pretentious? talking about what they work on?
He is what he is. He made 1 great game and then went extra Uber woke and ruined his legacy
@@Midwestemoisme "could redefine mainstream perceptions of gaming" that’s not a pretentious statement to you? It’s always them changing gaming. The dude made one good game and thinks they are the best gaming studio out there.
And just like that I’m looking at Naughty Dog’s next game with trepidation
Sure . . . "Super glue."
If SIE allows Naughty Dog to have free rein to do basically whatever they want, why couldn't they make an online multiplayer mode (Factions) without getting pressure from execs to make it a live service game?
Mad respect to Naughty Dog for removing crunch from their studio. Game devs are super hardworking and talented and it's a shame how over worked they are.
I clicked the for the title....but now I want to know more about the tavern and the DND Campaign....
Can you do a video about that? (Your DND Campaign? The Tavern Build? DND Content?) I'd love it!
I feel like he already ruined TLOU franchise… sucks because the second game looks gorgeous and has incredible gameplay but the story was like discount walking dead 😓 (besides the Joel flashbacks which were decent). The story was garbage. Could have been sooo much better with a few tweaks. Also some of the changes to the show were stupid too… and no im not talking about the gay episodes (which were some of my favorite episodes) but just so many dumb little changes that made it worse… cuckman needs to go 👎🏽
@@kriskaterYeah Druckmann has no idea what he is doing
If anyone is breaking standards in terms of visual fidelity, art direction, story, gameplay, animation is Cyberpunk, not a fucking game that I almost fell asleep TWICE while playing lmao.
Fully expect Luke to worm ring Neil every time naughty dog is mentioned
Imagine Part 3 isn't even a game and instead it's a book or some other form of media. That would be insane and hilarious.
His talk about AI seems very similar to the talk about emergent gameplay during TLOU 1. The AI seems like a continuation off of pushing for my dynamic fusion between gameplay and storytelling. TLOU Part 2 took it even further than the first game with how varied and "realistic" the NPC behavior was. It all played into the storytelling while being a part of gameplay.
This is what I HOPE he is talking about anyways.
Thats really the best case scenario in all this. Im hoping too.
@@gesi7072 dont forget the ai picking the right animation from the pool every milisecond for part one remake.
I think it would be cool if they worked on crowd density and things like that. But I don't think it should replace the work of an actual human.
That's way too optimistic an interpretation, he literally spoke about AI in the context of _content creation,_ his cited example being motion capture at home and how AI can enhance that, thereby lowering costs. That sounds great and all... until you think about what actually goes into motion capture: it isn't just fancy cameras and silly suits with tracking points on them, it's all of the people employed by the studios too, the stunt coordinators, the line riggers (for those crazy jumps and flips), the specialists who set up all of the hardware, the actors themselves - all potentially replaced by a library of mocap data that an AI can be trained on to generate near infinite variations on.
And so what if they reduce the cost of development? Are we going to benefit from that? Are the big publishers like Sony, EA, Ubisoft, etc. going to drop the price of games, or are they going to keep raising it and shoving microtransactions in at the same time?
@@blarghmcblarghson1903 That would be an awful direction for Naughty Dog...
The reason their cutsscenes look as good in the first place is because they manually touch them up after Mocap.
I also feel like those animations will start to look like Ubisoft with how Robotic and spliced together look.
I'm trying to cope and hope for an optimistic possibility because this whole AI in creative fields has been very depressing.
if he is the head of Naughty Dog, who is the feet

Same story as with Rocksteady and all the other big studios that released garbage live service games.
Druckman gives me creep vibes
please elaborate
@@asc24gAnyone who talks like an ally while doing things that contradict those words must be treated with suspicion at best and scorn at worst. Neil loves to talk like a feminist ally but he fired the woman in charge of Uncharted because she disagreed with the story direction of TLOU.
@@asc24g It's hard to put a finger on it exactly, but I also get the same impression of Druckman. This is the first time I see an interview with him, I've heard of him before, but I never played TLOU. There's something sleazy about him. It's a vibe. He gives off the impression he's hiding something while at the same time trying to look for weaknesses in the interviewer, like he's sizing her up. Like he's trying to appear like a nice guy, when in fact he's a predator. I've had someone look at me like that once, a conman, I didn't fall for it, because he gave me the same sleazy/creepy impression. I wish I could explain it more precisely, but it's a body language thing. Don't take this as some definitive verdict: I could be wrong, but he does come across as creepy.

@@tehbeernerdHe did not fired Amy, that was a made up story by ign at the time and the guys who wrote the article came and apologized…
Bruce is the real mind behind, the one and only truly great TLoU game, the first one. Neil is an ideologue with no original ideas or taste, and that is clearly shown in his lackluster sequel. It hurts me that he gets all the credit now for this franchise as a whole.
If you pop your t-shirt in the freezer overnight, the superglue will become very brittle and should be easier to scrape it off (fellow model maker)
I absolutely love part 1 and played it multiple times. Part 2 was a chore to get through, it felt like an eternity and the story was kinda meh. They should just leave it like that, part 3 does not need to happen in my opinion.
I'm convinced Neil already used AI when he wrote the story for TLOU2 because it was such cringeworthy crap.
Didn’t he create himself in TLOU2 and spit on Joel and then was sniped?
No.
Yes
Alejandro Edda was the face of Manny. But Niel was the face of Dr. Uckmann, a villain of the in-universe card game. You need only to look it up to see the numericly valued size of his ego...

Also: last time I heard about revolutionizing gaming was Death Stranding… and I mean… it was okay, but revolution?
I scratch the bald spot at the top of my head at you sometimes.
You obviously have a lot of respect for druckmann.
The man is a malignant narcissist.
He is.
He manipulated the situation to get rid of Amy henning and his co studio director leaving him in charge.
He is a Sony Vp as well as a studio head.
Through his manipulations.
So he doesnt deserve your adoration.
I dont care what happens to the studio.
I dont want the employees to be fired or laid off but I have 0 interest in what games they make.
The TV show last of us continues and if it is successful Druckmann will make another game in the franchise . He won't have the choice although he pretends he does.
He may do something else first but I have doubts it will be successful as his narcissism will keep him from seeing its flaws.
none of thatis true, but go on.
This is a insane take and absolutely wrongs
He didn’t push Henning away at all and he conceded Bruce to stay in Naughty dog for one more game with Uncherted 4.
Maybe do some actual research instead of parroting blatant misinformation? You need seek mental help for hating so much on a complete stranger that his worst crime was making a debatably “bad game”
@@vault29a yes it is.
Why are you writing this like it's a poem?
Yeah, I'm checked out. The only thing that would pique my interest in naughty dog is druckmann getting fired or let go. Then, immediately replacing him with Amy Hennig as president, as it should of been. That was probably the stupidest thing naughty dog ever did, letting her go.
The last clip of the Last of Us Part II documentary was from spring 2023, where Neil Druckman teased having a concept for part 3. This is speculation, but my guess is that Sony had a say in what was and was not allowed to be shown from the footage of the development process and all that jazz. They may have allowed that clip to be used for the end of the documentary because it is in fact the intention of NaughtyDog to pursue a final chapter of the Last of Us one day. I believe it’s probably at least 5-6 years away since they are most likely working on another game right now, but I don’t think it’s an accident for Sony to allow that teaser of sorts to be the last part of the documentary. If there is anything at all about the game right now, it is most certainly still in the earliest stages of pre production while they work on this new game.
Everytime I see Druckman all I see is flashes of THAT scene from Last of us 2 and I'm overcome with disgust.
Then you need mental help dude, it’s just a video gameb
Part 1 was a literal perfect story for a decade. Then they had to mess with it. Im of the opnion they should just retcon part 2 and just ignore ever making a part 3.
No. Part 2 was incredible.
They should have just set TLOU2 with an entirely different cast and not touch the original cast. You HAVE an ENTIRE CONTINENT you can use and you just force in the OG protag cause "Well what else are we supposed to do!?!?"
@@ShyestofGuys i agree there’s a lot of potential and it’s worth seeing a new story, but I’ll stand by what part 2 was.
Part 2 was just as good as 1 imo
@@enjoi0555 Absolutely. It's not AS well crafted and has more issues with pacing, but it's still really good
Unless it’s an already established IP it will fail they brined too many bridges and pissed off way too many gamers
I didn’t want them to make part two. And to be honest, Part two was a great game. I’d want it to be that Ellie is a side character and it’s like based on London or something, completely different characters and gameplay
The anonymous, and mysterious new game by Neil Druckmann…skepticism starts. Honestly, I enjoyed the Uncharted trilogy and Uncharted 4 A Thief’s End
Amy Hennig, whom druckman singled out and fired, is largely responsible for the Uncharted trilogy
@@faedrennsuch a shame because all uncharted games were so good. I didn’t really care too much for the LOU series but, I enjoy part 1 better
@@tonydeluna8095 I enjoyed that they didn't take themselves too seriously, and I still like the first Last of Us.
@@TheBlargMargyeah that’s true! I’m on the same boat, I enjoyed the first game, I didn’t really care too much about playing as Abby. But as for the uncharted trilogy, I am going back to playing all of them again
@@faedrennHow did Druckmann do that lol? Also, the 2 best UC games are the ones Neil worked on. UC1 and UC3 are the worst of the 5 console games.
I don't care for anything involving him period
i don’t think AI by itself is bad. it’s the fact that it will be over used. aaI can’t replace your whole writing team, but writers can use AI to polish scripts and help keep track of flags. it can’t code your whole game but it can cut development times. as long as the suits see that an AI can’t replace the human eye for art it should be fine.
I wouldn't trust them to do another one. I disliked 2 and it cheapened part 1.
it absolutely didn't cheapen 1, 1 set the foundation for 2 and those events are bound to happen regardless of how much people hate it. Joel's actions have consequences, and he drove a rift between him and Ellie.
In what possible way did it cheapen 1, what type of nonsense is this
@@Indigo_1001 It entirely changed the characters of Joel, Tommy and Ellie. It asserted that Ellies death would have ensured a cure, when in part 1 the odds were slim to none. And it treated the characters and the players like children, with heavy handed writing and dumbed down morality, for starters. It's the opposite of 'good writing' and 'character arcs'. We can start with that.
@@Ha-fy6zv Ah, I've heard so many talk about how they dumbed down Joel, and it's one of the stupidest talking points I've ever heard, that highlights just how bad the whiner is at critical thinking.
@@user-jt1js5mr3fI think the issue is how defenders constantly say “Joel was in a great environment for five years, so of course he’s softened and isn’t as sharp as he was in part 1.” That to me is one of the laziest excuses I’ve ever heard. It’s like they forget that Joel had to survive in the apocalypse for 20 years by doing some pretty heinous things, which caused him to become a survival expert. That doesn’t just go away. Five years doesn’t outdo twenty.
Screw Drunkman, screw Naughty Dog. They blew it all away with me.
Who fuckin cares at this point, Naughty Dog ruined their rep.
The guy wants to make movies, not games.
Laugh out loud. Last of Us 2 has the best, most next-gen gameplay of any game in the last decade
@@MichaelDoesLife that’s highly debatable, but everyone is entitled to their opinion and I don’t necessarily have to agree, like you don’t ether.
Incredible talented people at naughty dog. Druckmann might be the only exception
Hi, your videos are always so entertaining and informative. I got a question about something else though: What's that cool instrumental hip hop track called that you got playing in the background? :D
My man, you really gotta take this down now. You can't leave this up in good faith with what we know now.
What?
When we getting the solo Abby adventure, where she contiues on with her trans sidekick and maybe they take up pup-play and find a colony of post apocalyptic Furries.
Or maybe we can get a bigot sandwich origin story.
Since Part 2 is your favorite game of all time, what else is in your top 5?
@@joshuatealeavesSuper Mario.
@@mangaas I’m teasing but yeah Super Mario is goated
I will be interested in what Naughty Dog makes again when Druckmann is no longer at the helm. Each release he has been in charge of I have not enjoyed, that includes the original Last of Us. They need a team that has the old over the top goofy tone of Jak/Uncharted that is separate from the doom and gloom "muh art serious" Druckmann sludge. I really hope they make a new IP with a fun tone that isn't so serious.
What a sec, so i got this right.........
You have not enjoyed The Last of Us 1????
I'm giving you a chance to correct it, if that come out wrong
Since TLOU part 2 was released, I've been wondering why they didn't make a story DLC about Tommy's 3 days in Seattle, so to know that Naughty Dog has at least been considering more content with Tommy is great to hear.
i meran it would be the most pointless dlc ever made, alongside with tommy+joel in 20 years of apocalypse game.
@vault29a how is it pointless? It adds to the narrative already given. I'd rather have a part 3, but at least some type of DLC while we wait would have been nice imo. What would you suggest instead?
The only person that I would believe If he said this thing of "redefine gaming" is Miyazaki
Hopefully it'll revolutionize Druckmann's story writing too, cause TLOU 2 story SUCKED.
The Last of Us 2 was way too bleak and depressing for me to ever get invested in the series again.
“Oh the first game had a purposely ambiguous ending where it’s up to you to decide how you feel about Joel’s actions? No never mind that was objectively a bad thing that happened and it very quickly ruined every character’s life.”
It makes the entire story just a constant downward spiral, and I don’t really care about how else any of these characters I don’t even like anymore are going to suffer even more
Keep on mind that the initial plot pitch of Last of us 1 had tess going out to kill Joel along with Elllie
well, you still need to ask Anita what she's going to have her lapdog do on 'his' next game
People that hated Part 2 are emotionally immature and there is nothing that can change my mind. Life is not going how we always want, Part 2 show exactly that.. but I guess people can't take how it is.
People that rightly hate a game that was poorly written are emotionally immature, and nothing anyone will say will make you change your mind? It sounds like you are the immature one. Perhaps you should try broadening your mind to understand the criticisms better. TLOU was one of my favourite games but TLOU2 really just soured it all for me.
@@jadedentity6170 It's not about criticism. It's the fact that people hate the game mostly for the story that was supposed to be painful. They wanted to make it like this and they done phenomenal job. If you can't stand your favourite characters death go play superhero games or something.
@@jadedentity6170 The "poorly written" complaints are shit. The biggest one I hear is about the unorthodox rising action. While yes, you go from 100 to 0 real quick, you get a huge bomb dropped on you almost immediately (Abby's dad reveal), which should already significantly change the way you view this story, and you get put right back into action like 10 minutes later. Abby's flashbacks aren't executed as smoothly as Ellie's imo, but it's no where near bad enough to consider the whole story poorly written.
Another stupid complaint I hear is about the characters being poorly written. This is definitely the dumbest one. If you can't empathize with a character, fine, just say that. But don't blame that on bad writing. I can't think of a single valid critique I've heard about a character that I couldn't easily dismiss with character development or lore established in the games.
@@samuelmikus4489 well fight the people then. You can fight your consumers and it will definitely not bite ND in the ass.
@@johnmisley5411 Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Just because mine differs to yours when it comes to the sequel it doesn't make it shit. I felt nothing for Abby or her backstory, because imo the way it was told/structured was done very poorly. One minute Joel is rescuing Abby from certain death and the next she is bashing his brains in with a golf club. And I'm supposed to feel sympathy? Congrats, by doing it this way I feel nothing good towards this character. Then to have you play as her with backstory sprinkled in just felt empty and insulting.
Abby's dad reveal didn't change it for me, because her dad was an awful person too. I'm supposed to believe he was the answer to the cure? There is too much that is just implausible. If the story had been told or structured differently then it would have made so much more sense. Build some ground first before tearing it all down. Have us develop some sort of bond with Abby. The numerous flashbacks with swapping views was so jarring. Dina and Jesse were also really underwhelming as characters. Tommy somehow survives a gunshot to the head with no surgeon. Ellie goes on a murder spree twice and kills Mel who shouldn't even be there. Plus countless others. Then gives up in the end after all that? WHAT?!
Swapping the strength of the original. The relationship built between Joel and Ellie for what we got in the sequel with the cycle of revenge? It wasn't for me. If there is a third game what will we get now? More flashbacks?
They need to get rid of Druckmann. The second game wss nowhere near as good as the first and the story was horrendous. He panders to the woke mob, its all he cares about.
the second game is miles ahead of the first one in every single aspect but you should stick to asmongold reactions or whatever altright crap you are consuming.
@vault29a
The story is a load of bs. But hey, you stay mad, kid.
Also, saying someone is "alt-right" because they don't like a video game says more about you than it does me.
Stay woke. Facts beat feelings.

Now in english.
neil drunkmann is an opportunist, who rides the successes of a now missed crew of creatives.
Very interested in ANY Naughty Dog Games.
Naughty Dog really needs to make fun games again! What happened to that Medieval Fantasy IP, the insiders were talking about!!
I like how Naughty Dog was founded by two Hebrew school buddies who didn’t like the trend of gore in video games… and now it’s headed by an egotist who forces his employees to watch Liveleak videos to make realistic violence
I dream of the Medieval game.
That said, Last of Us Part 2 was a fun game, so they never stopped, they've simply slowed down
@@tehbeernerd
Bruh this is so unbelievably wrong
Show me the source of the development being forced to watch gore videos. There is literally NO evidence of that and it’s just one of many blatant misinformation.
@@Indigo_1001I’m not showing you a goddamn thing, all you’ve done in this video’s comments is ask for proof that Druckmann is something less than this perfect golden god of gaming. Even if I did give you proof you wouldn’t read it. Go away.
@@tehbeernerd
Never stated he was perfect, but the insanity people say about him and the studio needs to stop. It’s blatant lies.
I hear about this insane lie of “he forced developers to watch gore”and it’s based on absolutely nothing. There is ZERO proof or evidence of this.
But please share it, I ask the source for this many times and each time they run a way like you will likely do.
There were literally 2 quotes that you would take away as important from the recent druckmann interview. How do you get a 24-minute video out of that?
He is our drama queen
Algorithm juice and the time to give context and discuss the quotes
A true skeptic indeed
I love his content, but he reiterates the same point so many times in these videos. He just repeats himself to get those UA-cam short clip moments. Kinda sad lmao
