My first thought was “So Holland is just going to grunt and breathe or something?” Then i remembered that they made J&D games past The Precursor Legacy.
My second thought was that Chris Pratt won’t be able to do justice to Daxter. Get Billy West.
I am morbidly curious about how this movie will turn out. Will they try and make it a family-friendly adventure movie influenced by the first game? Or base it on the sequels, which tried to make everything darker and edgier? Also, why? Like, I would love it if there was a resurgence of interest in Jak & Daxter, but of all the IPs Sony wanted to adapt for film they chose one that hasn't had a game released since 2009?
This is honestly amazing to me since Naughty dog said they weren’t going to make “childish” games anymore and now they are making a Jak and Daxter movie? Wild.
There’s a difference between the gameplay and the greedy, manipulative monetization.
The gameplay itself is solid and polished better than just about any multiplayer game out there - anyone who tries to argue otherwise is letting their (justified) anger toward Activision/Blizzard influence their judgement.
The monetization feels gross and disrespectful of the playerbase. It’s like we have this well-made AAA quality game, but it’s inside a vegas casino. Even if you enjoy it, you have to deal with this unsettling feeling of being scammed the whole time that you play.
