I'm a little worried about the success of Intergalactic after such massive hate for the first trailer. I know there's a very vocal minority that hates this game, calling it woke and other nonsense, but despite that, the average gamer might not want to pick up a new NG game when they see review bombing under promotional materials. And why are these people doing this? Do they still hold a grudge against NG for what they did in TLOU2?

Matthew McConaughey just revealed why he passed the project up, and mind you, he was on True Detective, one of the greatest TV shows that was one season, concise, focused, and stuck the landing.

Last of Us fumbled. Hard. Biggest problem was the casting/acting (every casting. Every. One. They were flat and uninteresting) and the second problem of the same caliber was the dog-shit writing. Two perfect video games they could have recreated with the same intensity and care only to slip into the same superficial money grab that video game adaptations always turn into.

The show has got no heart or soul; it feels vacant and flat. And all of my friends & family who tuned in were like… “Uhm, you like this? It’s just a worst version of…” etc

Not sure I agree; a spruced-up remake could make the first game feel modern. I don't know?

I got curious about how much work actually went into Part II's accessibility, so I pulled Naughty Dog's own announcement post and went through every setting they named. Their public line is "more than 60". Counting each one individually gets you to 80, because some are options nested inside others.

Some of them I hadn't thought about at all until I saw them written down:

Repeated Button Presses for someone who can't mash. Infinite Breath for someone who can't hold one down underwater. Skip Puzzle Option for someone who wants the story and can't do the puzzle. Guitar Vibration Cues so a deaf player can feel a song. And Hostages Don't Escape, which is there so a slower player doesn't lose the person they were trying to save.

Or do you think since all of the focus is on GTA6, that maybe they want that to come out first? which means Maybe we see it at the game awards? But would even that still be too close to GTA? Putting the February SOP as the earliest we see it?

Seriously if they're are going to make us wait til 2035 for tlou 3, atleast give us a directors cut of TLOU. Cover more material of their journey across America instead of jumping from Pittsburgh to Colorado. I always felt like that jump was pretty abrupt.
