If your wondering why Cole looks different, back in 2010, they had this marketing campaign with an "New Cole", where he would have an new voice and design. The fans were pissed, resulting in tons of backlash and saying they ruined his design. The team responded and delayed the game's release window by a month to fix the issue with the backlash, putting the OG Cole back in and showed it off at E3 2011.
@@da-irish-harry8351 I read somewhere that sucker punch replaced the voice actor from the first game because they wanted one who could also do the motion capture.
I can see why this design got backlash,from the fact that Cole sounded nothing like his original self from the first game....it definitely felt like a different man named Cole......so changing him back to his original design was the best thing to do
cole still appears to be whole different person named cole.... inFAMOUS 2 has very mid writing and im surprised nobody and i mean NOBODY ever mentions it... its like how Assassin's Creed 2 is and how 'fans' dont realise how badly written AC2 is
Despite the new cole look, one thing I have noticed was the way the electricity and cole’s power. They all sound and look similar to Infamous 1 and it makes sense since it was a beta trailer. The shockwave and megawatt hammer powers looks different than from the final release.
@@Saltboi1823 I'm hoping for a remake or a remastered but this skin will be gone unfortunately. Maybe with pc mod but the game is only playable by emulator
I love Cole but I will always prefer this design, just fits my aesthetic more. While I get keeping him consistent, I feel like there was a middle ground they didn't even try where they could give him shorter hair, maybe buzzed on the sides and back, but something to distinguish him from all the other bald white guys in gaming.
This is my favorite design! He looks so cool, and…kinda like me, so seeing this years ago got me hyped to see a video game protagonist that slightly resembles me.
@@liquidaeronraines5367 It's not just that. This was to be the new design of Cole -modelled after the new actor, Eric Ladin-, but they changed it due to bad reaction from the fans.
V - Trigger Hey,it’s just being more realistic.Not every protagonist should be a good looking guy with a cliche attitude.And the Cole we got had a very unique personality.
@@sisysphusynelson4903 I do wish they keep him with the long hair style from the original prototype. We barely had those for protagonists during the ps3 and xbox era that isn't cartoonish.
@@sisysphusynelson4903 im with you. I remember being pissed when they shaved him again back in the day but now looking back i prefer him his bald look. The cole here looks like that guy who does light shows for people at raves and also sells ecstasy. Coming from personal experience the bald one looks a bit less like a junkie to me lol.

It's a shame that insomniac won't do the same for Spider-Man

also, he looks too much like Nathan drake.
And since when did Cole ever have hairstyle like that uh never
They still ended up changing the voice

That's not just Nathan Drake?
thats literally why they changed it
sam fisher too
Afaik, they did it because he looked too different. But agreed.

I love the hairs...
Nathan Macgrath
lol
Bro, this Cole look so Badass
He looks like the cliche white videogame protagonist 😂
If I were you I’d be more worried about my head.
Haven't had any complaints about my head
i actually like the beta skin for Cole
Same bro hope if they remastered or remake put this was a skin
Same
@@grenha8Or make a new game and protagonist with this model.
@@Saltboi1823 I'm hoping for a remake or a remastered but this skin will be gone unfortunately.

Doesn't the cityscape remind you of Sly?
it still does
well, it's the same developers, so yeah.
Love the Infamous games
I hate second son, but very like infamous 2
I’m so glad this look got scrapped
Dang, every single iteration of Cole they never give him a long hair style in the final release lol
pretty funny how last month i was looking up these trailers what are the odds
rip
shouldve been dlc

@screenplayjose1463you're braindead
So much better with hair
Nope
Well, it doesn't look like him anymore and too similar to Nathan Drake.
Bald is beautiful
Why is this design so much better than the final?!
His beta design was way better, they scraped it for some weird reason.
Apparently because of backlash.
How is it a weird reason?
