He mentions religion and everyone here immediately thinks it's going to be an attack on a known religion, and ready to rake it personally.....smh. its not hard to make up a religion with cult like characteristics, which I'm assuming it will contain.

Y'all are just trying hard to hate the game at this point.

Trying? I hate it already.

So.....anyone actually remembers this exist?

Ya, I don’t give a shit if people think it’s woke. I think it looks awesome. I have yet to play a bad naughty dog game. TLOU part 2 had a mid story, but everything else with the game was S Tier.

The animations in TLOU2 are still a tier above most AAA games on the market today, and it's been almost half a decade.

Yes, this interview was incredible. The 2 are so in sync with their taste.

Awesome to hear how 28 Days Later inspired TLOU, and how TLOU went on to inspire Garlands upcoming 28 Years Later.
These are a couple of my fav creators ever in their perspective mediums. And was awesome to hear Druckmann say how Civil War would have made an awesome video game. We think alike. First thing I said when I saw it.

Glad to see Garland's involved too; loved 28 Days Later. But is it just me, or does 28 Weeks Later just seem to get memory-holed? I liked that one too, even if Days was the better film.

Yeah this “false” “fictional” religion is GUARANTEED to be soooooo “coincidentally” close to Christianity only someone like you with a single digit iq will claim otherwise

Wonder if you hold this same feeling over the SMT games. You can kill Yahweh in those :/

Or perhaps we allow all religion to be criticised in media rather than being fearful of criticising some (or one in particular).

Why does this suddenly hinge completely on Intergalatic?

why copypasta from that shithole? wtf

Trust me if I had the time I'd not done so, but was quite busy. And I didn't want to copy the write-up without giving credit to who wrote it to begin with.

When did I suggest it did?

Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet is "a game about faith and religion," which Neil Druckmann jokes will surely get less hate than The Last of Us 2

"You know what, let's do something that people won't care as much about. Let's make a game about faith and religion"

www.gamesradar.com

"With The Last of Us 2, we made certain creative decisions that got us a lot of hate. A lot of people love it, but a lot of people hate that game."

"Who gives a shit," Garland quipped.

"We released a trailer for The Last of Us 2 where we faked a shot, and we showed Joel somewhere where he would never make it to because of things that happened in that story …’

"Again, who gives a shit," Garland responded.


I don’t necessarily disagree that games shouldn’t aim to please all fans, but Garland’s comments don’t inspire a lot of confidence and seems to hint at a bit of the old ‘own the chuds’ attitude.

Personally I prefer developers to do the game they want to do instead of compromising left, right and center. Then I make my choice as a consumer whether I buy it or not. Makes for more interesting games overall. So I respect Garland in that sense.

I think it’s the ‘who gives a shit’ comments that raise red flags to me

 

[cormack12]

Well if you lie about something in the game then it's not who gives a shit is it really. It's cheap.

How can you subvert expectations when you created the expectations? There's a reason why films don't have scenes not in the film in the trailer.

Smells like he just wants to kiss Neil's ass.

If we lived so called maga world, ther would be any games left because in those peoples mind, freedom of speak go as long as they let it go, that not freedom!

God/Yahweh one in the same bc Jesus was a Jew.

You are reading words of truly free individual, and not some fucking MAGA "beliver"

I wonder when became A'ok for 200-400 million blockbuster games to be "cultish" edgy very controversial and divisive products that dont have to appeal to its own fans ... treating this kind of game like some indy art passion project that dont have to account for the maximum sales possible is truly a bizarre form of business , but hey as long as Sony is happy financing Cuckmans fart smelling ideas for progressively diminishing returns, "who gives a shit?" certainly not him.
