I do have to say I really appreciate how they're making an insanely huge effort to get way out in front of this release by so much time to make sure everyone knows what an absolute piece of slop it will no doubt be. Neil Cuckman has truly given us the honor of not even trying to put a mask on this and telling you right up front yep this is how this is going to be. Which honestly I appreciate after the mess around the last game. This time it's right up and right in your face. Very considerate of you Neil.
Supposedly, this game didn't go into full production until 2020 which I believe was the same year (surprise surprise) that Concord also did. Funny, how 2020 seems like a very particular year doesn't it. But just a coincidence I'm sure.
It's truly impressive how this short little trailer just makes you despise this character immediately. Every single trait, every single thing about this character is annoying and insufferable. And they thought this was how to show us the game for the first time, amazing. I guess points for honesty at least.
It's not just the slurping but also her smug expression that would make even Will Smith himself want to give he/him/she/her/they/them/ze/zir/it (or whatever the F this creature is) a tight slap.
It just makes the game seem so boring if the threat is in no way depicted and the only mention gets treated with churlish derision. Her friend only seems exasperated at her risk taking, as if she's refusing to double mask in a shopping mall rather than any real stakes.
I don't mind that she has a buzz cut. I _do_ mind that she's holding the trimmer upside-down, and waving it 1/2" over her head. And don't try to tell me it's a "space trimmer" while she's wearing Adidas and driving a Porsche. You know that thing's a Wahl.
Asajj Ventress is a perfect example of someone who pulls of a bald look perfectly. It can work. The problem here is that attitude, the 'quirky' dismissive body language. This trailer is enough for me to see yet another 'I know better than anyone else' attitude that is so common in AAA titles with female protagonists.
5:21 this vould be a hilarious ad She takes off the armor, returns to fight the creature "as she is", runs out of stamina immediately and is dealt a death blow after less than a minute
That honestly would have been a far better message, but with a twist. Her death could have been a vision, so that inspired her to exercise and get somewhat healthy. She doesn't need to be that skinny like that cardboard display, just simply show how her progress and effort made a difference and she survived the battle.
Its annoying because they like anime but have a disdain for the culture it's derived from, so they steal the product and discard the culture. Its truly vile.
Amen brother, this shit is been killing me for over a decade now but a decade ago I was called racist bigot everything you could think of because I was saying they were stripping anime of culture.
You know, I don't think that's true. These people infect, destroy, move on to the next big thing, so IMO they don't like anime. They just like to be involved in it because it's popular. Mainstream is truly a death sentence for a hobby.
Usually, bounty hunter characters give off a gritty "paycheck-to-paycheck" feeling. As if they're always, at least slightly, financially desperate and chasing work no matter they're reputation. All the scummy product placement kinda kills the bounty hunter aura.
@@lewisjones1915 yeah those brands are notoriously owned by poor people lol. The brands rich people buy no ones even heard of them as they're both low-key and out of a normal person's budget.
It's not just the main character, the first 15 seconds shows product placement for Porche, Sony, and Adidas... I play games to escape reality, not be advertised to by companies.
@@JB-qu8pv I definitely agree with that, and it is the biggest issue for sure. I'm just pointing out it's not the only issue, and that's just in a few minutes trailer. Wonder what else is hiding.
When i see stuff like, "from the creators of Uncharted/Batman Arkam Knight/Dragon Age Inquisiton" etc etc, I get extra sad because im like, "look what we had - pure gold, and look the trash that they develop now".
It used to excite me when I heard stuff like that. It has been years since when they said "made by the people who made [blank] and [blank]" had actually had the people who made those games incredible.
It's not just regular anime either, it's 80's/90s anime, a generic representation of the best era of anime when their budgets were out of control. The economic peak, the golden age of the genre. Which for someone of my generation, comes off as pandering and insulting to an extreme. Nothing is sacred to these people.
Well and of course they had to "subvert" it because that's literally everything that modern games especially current naughty dog does. Take something absolutely beloved and basically destroys it.
It truly would have been beautiful had that been a thing. Absolutely so on point. That's it I feel like this trailer did everything it needed to do to push many many people far away from it.
The thing is, one could've said: "Well, okay, this might be a coincidence and the character is actually supposed to be super cool and not DEI at all", but then they lock the comments and it's clear they were expecting the backlash, because they know full well what they're doing.
Let's see it was put into full production back in 2020 (around the same time last of Us 2 dropped) and it comes from everyone's favorite most likeable person ever Neil Druckmann. Someone who has admitted on at least one occasion to purposely making female characters "unattractive" for the usual more or less "own the chudds" BS reason. Yeah this was always gonna be cooked.
The fact that this game was going into full production around the time that last of us two was coming out is extremely telling. This thing is just going to be riddled top to bottom with this garbage. Anyone that thinks this isn't just a massive red flag is very sad and fully delusional.

Good old Cuckman, I guess he felt like being outright and honest this time and just showed us exactly what the game is going to be. I'm not sure if that was intentional or just his massive ego but either way what a nice kindness to tell us to totally avoid this turd.
5:00 they gotta stop pretending overweight people are athletic and can do this sort of stuff. i gained 50lbs after quitting smoking and moving around is a chore now. (I'm eating healthy and exercising so it's starting to slip off, luckily.)
@TheEvilpac Thank you! I'm willing to trade being heavy for a while for healthy lungs. I can't wait to get back into proper shape like I was in my early twenties
Good for you. You'll get there. I've quit tobacco and have lost weight. To be honest keeping weight off is harder. The difference is, with tobacco you can just cut it out of your life completely but you have to eat. Its kind of like having to control yourself but you have to take one puff of a cigarette a day
Tbf you can be “overweight” and relatively fit. That’s when most your mass is muscle. That’s not these kind of characters though. These are fat characters
Lol that sequence with the title drops, straight up Crash Bandicoot and Ratchet, the attempt at appealing to nostalgia is absolutely wild. It's like they knew no one would be hyped over this.
No no no no Joel was a horrible person he basically killed earth because he wanted to have another do over as being a father figure so I'm glad they killed him in the sequel no monster like that deserves a second chance!
@@chocolover1998sooooooo it wasn’t the infected, the fact that they can spread spores that can also infect other people and make a whole area a dead zone, or the fact that they can also evolve that doomed humanity?
@@mantis8856also if you think logically there where so many ways the fire flies plan would’ve went wrong. Even had they succeeded in making a cure let’s not forget they are no saints themselves so they’re not just gonna give it to anyone. Imagine what would happen if one country had oil people will do anything to get their hands on that resource. And any faction could easily take out the fireflies and take it for themselves. Like I know Neil said that once the cure was made everything would just work out but that would just not make any sense.
@@AJ-po6up Honestly, with the game probably not coming out til 2026 you really have to appreciate how this was the first experience they wanted to give the general public with this game and this character. Pretty nice of them to give us a nice big heads up, so far ahead. True kindness.
The art style and setting sold me. Then they showed the protagonist and the awful dialog, and I was like, nope. What is it with Neil making female characters ugly? She doesn't have to look sexy,but she doesn't have to look so damn ugly either.
I can guarantee you that none of the people who made crash bandicoot and jak and daxter are there and none of them would go along with any of this garbage! They should be ashamed for trying to lump themselves with series they could never compete with!
I was blown away by all of the product placement. Everything was offically licensed and branded. No wonder CoD can't get use real gun names. This thing is hogging all the licensing deals.
Actually that is due to California State Law that says that guns cannot be advertised in a video game that kids play. Yes kids play CoD cause I heard plenty of them.
Because having hair is somehow associated with being feminine and that's baad... A woman not having hair means she is totally not feminine and she is ready to get down and dirty like the rest of the men. This trope is so progressive and totally not an outdated cliche whatsoever!
Yeah the one thing I can say is they were completely honest with this trailer. Unlike last of us 2 they didn't try to subvert/hide anything they put it right in front of us and literally slapped us across the face with it.
Thank god i wasn't the only one who thought her voice did not fit AT ALL. I have no problem with her design, she fits the bounty hunter broker role pretty damn well but that voice was just.....wrong.
The trailer already tells you that they themselves have no faith in this from the whole "from the studio that brought you x" and then listing all the previous games. If you have to rely on your past succes to make your current project seem appealing in any way you know it is fucked.

Just because of the red ship and the retro vibes it made me think of cowboy bebop at first. Then the characters showed up, main lady seemed annoying and overly happy for any kind of bounty hunter personality where you would be risking life for the many scars she had. The eyepatch lady doesn't give off a tough vibe to match the look/job either. Then they did the CD player which just made it seem like a guardians of the galaxy which made me think concord. When the actual game of landing on a planet and kill golems just looked like it would be awful.
@@WalterPowerbright The world cannot forget about that turd soon enough. The world was going through enough when that came out. We didn't need insult to massive pandemic.

What always cracks me up about the body positivity people is that because it's a video game it's just supposed to make sense when they inject a super fat person that's supposed to be hyper athletic and strong. Perfect genetics would have us all with a six pack and strapping muscles.
I'm not sure an anime girls hair should be taken as propaganda, anime girls have always had weird hair. The "Black Spike" guy does not look to be from a real anime though.
Because they have feminists working at the studio and no men left lol. They don't even shave their armpit hair so ofcourse they don't know how a trimmer works.
You cant make a mission sound legitimatly and literally suicidal, and then make out the protag to be non-chalant. It may well have said: "You cant fly directly into the sun with only a bathing suit! You'll die" *Protag sucks on straw*
I think the point of the anime clip wasn't to say "look we like anime.", but instead to say "I'm not going to ever be like that." Remember what happened to DMC Devil May Cry? The perfectly place wig moment and dante says "not a chance" before ripping it off.
that darker than black scene also reminds me of a similar scene from this korean flick called the man from nowhere. its like korean john wick but much darker
The anime in the TV look more interesting than this game… Really shameless to bait us with the vastly superior 80-90's anime aesthetic :/ Also Darker Than Black is goated. I spent my entire youth listening to both OSTs, it's insane 🥰
Yeah, the MC comes across as a dumbass. I don't what to be that person. I don't want to play as someone who got in over their head by being stupid before I got control just so I can "fix" it. That isn't immersive, that is immersion braking. And it also makes me think that there are going to be cutscenes were she reverts to being a dumbass just to force me to fix it again. I might be wrong, but a trailer is supposed to make you want to buy the game, and its failing hard at that.
I also think the smile in the shaving scene is weird. As usual the devs don't even know what they are conveying, they are just making the character "quirky" or "strong" or whatever they think is modern.
Absolutely, I was playing solo until I stumbled upon Beep and then he became my character's apprentice, and from there we eventually went on to make the rest of the organization that's now growing in power.
why I have the feeling that's is going to be a "revenge story"? but the most obnoxious part is : her friend "you shouldn't go there is too dangerous" MC "I should fire you" her friend "ok you are the boss make what you want"
is it me or is anyone else looking at this trailer and thinking this is from EA or Ubisoft or Activision or Bethesda and not Naughty Dog...? Cause honestly..that's just a damning point that all these "AAA" games are so homogenized they no longer have a style or identity like they used to from all these devs. How depressing.
Sex dimorphism allows people to know who the characters are and what they do when roaming in the worlds. That should have been the pin standards as it is important for the gameplay.
They also got destroyed by this PIN

5:00 they gotta stop pretending overweight people are athletic and can do this sort of stuff.
i gained 50lbs after quitting smoking and moving around is a chore now. (I'm eating healthy and exercising so it's starting to slip off, luckily.)
Keep going, that's the way. Not embracing your defects, but overcoming them through hard work
@TheEvilpac Thank you! I'm willing to trade being heavy for a while for healthy lungs. I can't wait to get back into proper shape like I was in my early twenties
Good for you. You'll get there. I've quit tobacco and have lost weight. To be honest keeping weight off is harder. The difference is, with tobacco you can just cut it out of your life completely but you have to eat. Its kind of like having to control yourself but you have to take one puff of a cigarette a day
@@Itsallover57 hahaha, that's a good comparison!
Tbf you can be “overweight” and relatively fit. That’s when most your mass is muscle. That’s not these kind of characters though. These are fat characters
Lol that sequence with the title drops, straight up Crash Bandicoot and Ratchet, the attempt at appealing to nostalgia is absolutely wild. It's like they knew no one would be hyped over this.
They pulled out all the stops lol.
I member!
Naughtydog died when they decided to kill Joel off
No no no no Joel was a horrible person he basically killed earth because he wanted to have another do over as being a father figure so I'm glad they killed him in the sequel no monster like that deserves a second chance!
@@chocolover1998 the fireflies weren't better.
@@chocolover1998sooooooo it wasn’t the infected, the fact that they can spread spores that can also infect other people and make a whole area a dead zone, or the fact that they can also evolve that doomed humanity?
@@mantis8856also if you think logically there where so many ways the fire flies plan would’ve went wrong. Even had they succeeded in making a cure let’s not forget they are no saints themselves so they’re not just gonna give it to anyone. Imagine what would happen if one country had oil people will do anything to get their hands on that resource. And any faction could easily take out the fireflies and take it for themselves. Like I know Neil said that once the cure was made everything would just work out but that would just not make any sense.
Naughty dog died the moment Neil said Anita Sarkeesians name.
That drinking from the straw is not "being strong", it´s "being arrogant". Even the look she gave is arrogance

Honestly, with the game probably not coming out til 2026 you really have to appreciate how this was the first experience they wanted to give the general public with this game and this character. Pretty nice of them to give us a nice big heads up, so far ahead.
True kindness.

The art style and setting sold me. Then they showed the protagonist and the awful dialog, and I was like, nope. What is it with Neil making female characters ugly? She doesn't have to look sexy,but she doesn't have to look so damn ugly either.
Neil is an activist. But mostly, he is a clown.
They don't call hin neil cuckman for nothing 😅
Between TLoU2 and this, seems to be the type he'd like to be wearing a strap-on behind him.
Blocking the body from view I thought it was a dude.
@@finfrog3237don’t forget a simp for Anita Sarkeesian bro was practically glazing her.
I can guarantee you that none of the people who made crash bandicoot and jak and daxter are there and none of them would go along with any of this garbage! They should be ashamed for trying to lump themselves with series they could never compete with!
I was blown away by all of the product placement. Everything was offically licensed and branded. No wonder CoD can't get use real gun names. This thing is hogging all the licensing deals.
Actually that is due to California State Law that says that guns cannot be advertised in a video game that kids play. Yes kids play CoD cause I heard plenty of them.
What a fun gaming era is the corpo era!
@@WastelandWanderer1216the irony of CoD being a M17+ game and still abiding by those dumb rules 😂

Why can't a woman just keep their hair???
Because having hair is somehow associated with being feminine and that's baad...
A woman not having hair means she is totally not feminine and she is ready to get down and dirty like the rest of the men.
This trope is so progressive and totally not an outdated cliche whatsoever!
There's been good female protagonists with buzzed heads since the 80s...but its new Naughty Dog so they'll make her insufferable.
Yeah they basically already did with the trailer showing her being obnoxious so, no hopes left for this one.
And there’s been good female protagonists like Taarna from heavy metal in 1981 and Ripley in Aliens as well.
Yeah the one thing I can say is they were completely honest with this trailer. Unlike last of us 2 they didn't try to subvert/hide anything they put it right in front of us and literally slapped us across the face with it.
She already gives off an unlikeable vibe just in the trailer.
The Will Smith comment made me laugh harder than intended. The main character sure looks like Jada.
Why does the older lady sound like she's 20?
Thank god i wasn't the only one who thought her voice did not fit AT ALL. I have no problem with her design, she fits the bounty hunter broker role pretty damn well but that voice was just.....wrong.
Probably can't find an older massive "progressive"
All woman who are early 20's
DEI hire
She's transwealthy.
Honestly the main character and the older lady in the TV should switch voices.
Concord 2: Now starring genderswapped Snake Plissken and Caillou.

Kenshi is such an amazing game. I can’t wait for kenshi 2 to be released
The trailer already tells you that they themselves have no faith in this from the whole "from the studio that brought you x" and then listing all the previous games. If you have to rely on your past succes to make your current project seem appealing in any way you know it is fucked.
It's all about destroying escapism.

I've watched barely a minute of this character and she's already insufferable.
Naughty Dog hasn’t learned anything from Last of Us 2.
Idk personally imo besides the advertising, I saw nothing wrong, I'd have to wait to see some gameplay of it
they went from one of playstation best componies tho the worst (luckly we stil have insoniac and team asoby buth thats it sadly)
@sharkio93Didn't Insomniac have SBI in Spidey 2?
@sharkio93Insomniac fell into a similar fate, look at what they did with Spiderman 2.
Why would they learn anything when they sold 10 million copies and won a bunch of awards? This is what their audience wants.
The player character kinda looks like the main character of the new Wicked movie
This game will be remastered, remaked in 2 to 3 years time the Naughtydog special
Bold of you to assume enough people will buy it to actually make a remaster worth it
And give it ten years before capcom remakes all the resident evil games again.
And Keighley collects his life achievement award for hosting the games awards.
amazing concord spin off by naughty dog, this game will be 10/10 and won the game awards. truly game of all time
Have a great weekend everyone! Stay rad!
There's no soul in it at all. Its the game equivalent of canned spam.
Now that's just and insult to spam itself

Is that just another Starfield? The art style is so similar.
More like Concord, Dustborn and Star Wars OutLOL have an inbreed abomination child. And it's gonna 16x far more worse than Starflop.
The art style screams woke to me. They all have this same cartoony artstyle and rainbow colour scheme. You can spot it a mile off.
Just because of the red ship and the retro vibes it made me think of cowboy bebop at first.
Then the characters showed up, main lady seemed annoying and overly happy for any kind of bounty hunter personality where you would be risking life for the many scars she had. The eyepatch lady doesn't give off a tough vibe to match the look/job either.
Then they did the CD player which just made it seem like a guardians of the galaxy which made me think concord.
When the actual game of landing on a planet and kill golems just looked like it would be awful.
It IS like Cowboy Bebop.
It's just that it's like the live-action one. LOL
@@WalterPowerbright
The world cannot forget about that turd soon enough. The world was going through enough when that came out. We didn't need insult to massive pandemic.
Main Lady? Did you just assume its gender?
The old lady has the voice of a prepubescent girl. it's weird lol.
I'm hoping Neil Drunkwoman is dreading everyday closer to game launch. Concord 2 baby.
Currently the like/dislike ratio is primarily about how much faith people have in the studio.
If I were them, I'd be very unhappy with the levels of faith displayed.
2:20 It's hard to take the stakes and tension seriously when even the character is unimpressed by it and doesn't take it seriously.
the fact the "anime" looks better then the full trailer is sad
I was watching the tv-screen instead of the trailer lol. the anime looks fire.
And it's an awful anime made by people that don't understand nor respect anime.
What to me stood out the most. They are flying fking spaceships, but are using CDs, like an old jukebox :
Naughty Dog still proving that they still have not learned their lesson 4 years ago. I hope they get brought up soon like Ubislop.
Wow, the video game adaptation of G.I. Jane 2 is looking great and it will be a slap.... I mean hit when it releases.
That trailer looks like s**t. Sony is cooked.

What always cracks me up about the body positivity people is that because it's a video game it's just supposed to make sense when they inject a super fat person that's supposed to be hyper athletic and strong. Perfect genetics would have us all with a six pack and strapping muscles.
Even that 70s anime shot on the TV was propaganda, just look at the color of that anime girl's hair.
if only the mc had any hair at all lol i think thats really supposed to be the contrast they're showing like "yeah see she's NOT feminine"
I'm not sure an anime girls hair should be taken as propaganda, anime girls have always had weird hair. The "Black Spike" guy does not look to be from a real anime though.
Mate, floofy pink hair was fucking everywhere back then in Japanese stuff, before it got coopted by activists it was just a anime girl hair color.
Bro never seen anime in his life. Silly boy.
@@Jokoko2828 Who-ever got those EXACT 3 colors hair though, usually it's one.
That 90s style cyberpunk anime was the most interesting thing in this trailer.
Another game no one asked for and messaging no one with sense likes.
They just took that asian transgirl Lev from TLOU 2 let Abby train her and put her into space to fight General Grevus from Star Wars - War Of Clones 😂
In the mirror scene she can't even use the trimmer properly
Am I the only one who wants after clipping? Hair, hair, everywhere!
Because they have feminists working at the studio and no men left lol. They don't even shave their armpit hair so ofcourse they don't know how a trimmer works.
That’s kinda lazy of the animators not gonna lie.
The cover art is gonna be her bald head orbiting a planet with a moon. 3 spherical objects.
You cant make a mission sound legitimatly and literally suicidal, and then make out the protag to be non-chalant. It may well have said:
"You cant fly directly into the sun with only a bathing suit! You'll die"
*Protag sucks on straw*
Darker Than Black mentioned 🖤
Based pfp
@@HeroHei based yt channel
It's a known scientific and universal fact that fans of Darker Than Black are a 1000% more based and awesome than non-fans.
I think the point of the anime clip wasn't to say "look we like anime.", but instead to say "I'm not going to ever be like that."
Remember what happened to DMC Devil May Cry? The perfectly place wig moment and dante says "not a chance" before ripping it off.
At 0:56, she seems to look at the tv and then dismiss it as cringe, turning away and waving the towel at it. So you might be on to something.
Ookami sequel hype tho also the only thing I like about that trailer is the music bcuz they got Trent Reznor to do the music for it
The moment I saw a womaan shaving her head it was an instant “NOPE” from me. 70$ saved
I was willing to give the benefit of the doubt until Kuckmen was announced at the helm.
Now neil can’t stand on someone else’s idea. Let’s see how crunched the staff are.
that darker than black scene also reminds me of a similar scene from this korean flick called the man from nowhere. its like korean john wick but much darker
Hire Naughty Pin developers please
You know its bad for western AAA devs when even Cr1tikal says their cooked
She's so empowered that she doesn't need me to play her game.
if this isn't the absolute proof the graphic doesn't make a good game, i don't know what is it
The anime in the TV look more interesting than this game… Really shameless to bait us with the vastly superior 80-90's anime aesthetic :/
Also Darker Than Black is goated. I spent my entire youth listening to both OSTs, it's insane 🥰
Let them keep doing this. As long at they're not destroying an already existing IP I'm okay with it.
Yeah, the MC comes across as a dumbass. I don't what to be that person. I don't want to play as someone who got in over their head by being stupid before I got control just so I can "fix" it. That isn't immersive, that is immersion braking. And it also makes me think that there are going to be cutscenes were she reverts to being a dumbass just to force me to fix it again.
I might be wrong, but a trailer is supposed to make you want to buy the game, and its failing hard at that.
I miss when Naughty Dog made games I actually would play, and enjoyed playing.
I also think the smile in the shaving scene is weird. As usual the devs don't even know what they are conveying, they are just making the character "quirky" or "strong" or whatever they think is modern.
Why do they bother. Just make a kind buff dude and everyone would love him.
Neil druckman is such a simp for Anita. He never got over her.
Did you recruit Beep? Did you turn him into the true CHAD he was meant to be?
Absolutely, I was playing solo until I stumbled upon Beep and then he became my character's apprentice, and from there we eventually went on to make the rest of the organization that's now growing in power.
@ 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 Good man, treat him well and he will only make you stronger.
why I have the feeling that's is going to be a "revenge story"?
but the most obnoxious part is :
her friend "you shouldn't go there is too dangerous"
MC "I should fire you"
her friend "ok you are the boss make what you want"
That article had to be sarcasm right?…
R-right?…
is it me or is anyone else looking at this trailer and thinking this is from EA or Ubisoft or Activision or Bethesda and not Naughty Dog...?
Cause honestly..that's just a damning point that all these "AAA" games are so homogenized they no longer have a style or identity like they used to from all these devs.
How depressing.
Sex dimorphism allows people to know who the characters are and what they do when roaming in the worlds. That should have been the pin standards as it is important for the gameplay.
Guarantee you that head shave was a bit so subtle dog whistle for the liberal crazies in the 2B movement
6:24 Bro that Will Smith comment is legendary hahaha
The scream I scrumpt when I heard it 😭😭😭🙌🙌
Everyone just groaned when the infamous name "Neil" popped up in the screen
We can totally see this game getting an unnecesary remaster thanks to Neil
