We at PSU have finally gotten our hands on Sucker Punch Productions' latest offering in the inFAMOUS franchise, inFAMOUS: First Light. It follows the story of one of the most interesting characters of inFAMOUS: Second Son. Spoiler alert: we liked it.
The Team Asobi and Sucker Punch Production devs and founders reflect on their shared creative bonds.
Fans of the action-adventure franchise have been eagerly awaiting news of a potential sequel to one of the best games on the PS4.
They really need to
Go off the evil ending off Second Son
Delsin absorbs all those powers
Revealed he’s the real Beast and John in Infamous 2 was just an anomaly created by timelines being messed with by Kessler.
Cole vs the Real Beast
quite honestly, i dont remember a whole lot about 2 amymore, but i absolutely hated the guy in second son haha.
It would make more sense to go off the evil ending of 2 and the good ending g of SS where Cole is The Beast.
Ha, yea Delsin was obnoxious.
I wouldn't mind another new character, but somehow bring Cole into the story.
We can just pretend like Delsin never existed. :)
Everyone that age is obnoxious. It's been years and is like to think delsin has grown
Until we wait for a potential new entry it would awesome to have infamous collection for PS5
Umm ... how about this?
First we get the Tushima sequel(coz its most rumored)
Then a new Resistance (need new PS SP FPS)
Then a totally new IP (new IPs are always interesting)
And then a new inFamous?
I had a great time with the second son. Never got to play the originals and hope they get remastered one day.
If I had a choice between another Infamous game and another Spider-Man game, I choose Spider-Man. Sony should spend its resources on its winners.
Infamous was such a winner its studio was given the freedom (after 3 titles + their expansions) to do a new IP with GoT, just like with Sly Cooper before infamous.
I'd welcome a 4th title even more than another Spider-Man, it'd be exciting what they could do with new powers fit for the hardware outside the limits of a licensed superhero game.
Spider-Man is guaranteed and is made by Insomniac so why not both as Sucker Punch would make Infamous.
Rumours suggest that Ghost of Tsushima 2 is already in development. Here's what we'd like to see in the sequel.
I love Ghost of Tsushima. It is my open world Onimusha. The presentation, the characters, the combat, the respect for the source material which was the Island of Tsushima, etc was just a step up for Sucker Punch.
A sequel of this game would definitely require Jin Sakai in the game. I would also have the game return to Tsushima because that's where the game is about. But it can look quite different on PS5 even if the same areas. The jump in detail, foliage, lighting, AI, new moves, new characters, etc would make the game look and play quite differently than before. You could even have unaccessible areas from the first game, areas that were secret even to Jin, playable areas.
And in my opinion, a portion of mainland Japan. Maybe someone against the second Mongol invasion that is playable and has a story arch that brings him from mainland Japan to Tsushima. And someone else is trying to stop them from reaching Tsushima. This person would have their own fighting style as a Samurai or something else. Characters like Yuna and Tomoe would return in the game as playable story arcs as well. Yuna was a great character that I'd like to see more of. Maybe she is taught by Jin to have Samurai moves but still has her thief like qualities. Maybe Tomoe returns but doesn't return to the Way of the Bow. Maybe she returns with the Way of the Fist. Some martial arts mixed in. Okay. I'm reaching on that last one. But we don't know a lot about Tomoe. That can be fleshed out.
But I'd have something like four playable characters to mix things up with different styles. Jin, Yuna, Tomoe and a fourth character from Japan. Five if you can get a more deadly Norio or a student of his in the game. Monks have cool moves too.
Something like that
Love Ghost of Tsushima as well. Brilliant game.
I disagree on the idea of a direct sequel in the exact same location(s). I would like a new story, in a new location (still Japan, of course) and in a new era.
I think the sequel should have some big lively cities, filled with citizens. I absolutely love Tsushima, but it never had any big towns. It sometimes had a bunch of the standard homes thrown together, but it never really felt like there was an actual community LIVING there. And even when you ‘liberate’ some of the bigger villages/towns, they mostly remain a ghost town, of course still ravaged by the tragedies of a brutal occupation/war.
In a sequel, I’d like to see the streets bustling with life. Think of Yakuza (the game-series), but old times. You’ll hear folks chatting, meeting up for dinner, rushing to work, whatever. Markets where poultry and fresh fish are sold, artists practicing their trade, or selling their works. Etc.
In short! I’d want some actual cities where you believe folks actually live(d), instead of some small collection of generic houses and npc’s thrown together.
Japan is a gorgeous huge country, so it has lots of very different locations, which is why I feel for the next game they should go somewhere else within Japan. Perhaps the Kyoto-Osake-Kobe region, due to historical importance and landmarks, but they could also go a bit more south and go for the gorgeous Shikoku Island.
We learned a lot about the Mongol invasion, so perhaps now learn a completely new chapter from Japan’s rich history, and new aspects from their culture.
I agree having a few different playable characters might be interesting. Jin was of course a jack of all-trades when powered up, but would be nice to have some different fighting styles (unarmed, staff, knives, etc) to change things up a bit.
Looking forward to the sequel. Considering the quality of the first game and how the devs respected the story & culture, and stuck true to what they wanted this game to be, I trust them with whatever they choose to do with a sequel. As longs as it’s still a single-player story-driven action adventure game of course. Wouldn’t want them to suddenly go ‘Beyond Good & Evil 2’ on us …
I expect the sequel will take place in a different location and therefore have a new title. Personally I would be fine with a new protagonist but I think we need new weapons and styles to elevate the gameplay above the original. Taking it a step further, I would love a wound system that affects your ability to fight. Something like Bushido Blade if anyone remembers that game.
Disguises
More non lethal tools
HIDE BODIES…main one for me, like to drag them in bushes more effectively and hide them from others.
Jinns return, will the Shogun go after him, will his Uncle (canon ending in my mind, he wouldn’t kill his family)
