I hate it when games have absurdly long credits, especially when you decide to go into overtime to finish a game and it's already late and then you have to sit through long credits making it even later by the time everything is said and done.

We absolutely don't need all the foreign localizers to be credited in the US version of a game, for example.

But 90 minutes takes the cake, I can't imagine actually sitting through that without just skipping it or exiting out or doing anything to make it stop.

Credits are always a crap shoot because you never know what you are gonna get. Can you skip them? Can you fast forward them? Is there a hidden epilogue that only plays if you watch them? Will they just repeat if I take the 20 minutes to watch them? Fable the lost chapters only lets you play after beating the game if you don't skip the credits for instance. The best credits though will do something to make them entertaining Gears 1 had the Cole Train singing some song. Warcraft 3 recreates the cutscenes from Warcraft 2 for comedic effect. 90 minutes of crawling white text on a black screen as the ost plays and runs out before the credits finish while you have to keep moving your controller to stop the console from shutting off isn't exactly going to win many people over.

Yes, this is why I tend to not skip credits and why it's frustrating when they're long.

I know, right? Baldur's Gate 1 had hilarious stupid statement dance remixes of lines from the game ("Tiax rules! Make way!"), while some other game (I think it was The Longest Journey?) had a 3d animated blooper reel of the voice actors stuffing up their lines.

Knowing what I know from this thread, I suspect the credits are going to be stupidly long, have everyone and their dog get a bit part including every employee that ever worked on the game ever (and you know there's tons of them because of the endless crunch and huge staff turnover at ND), a "Thanks to" reel that namechecks every blue tick who tongued Druckmann's balloon knot, and then at the end there'll probably be a stinger of Abby narrating "suggested questions for player groups" or some other fart-huffing monstrosity.

The fact of the matter is that Cuckmann can do whatever story he wants. But the fucker is so smug about his little "the road" copy job that he got so defensive about it. No Neil you game isnt art so why dont you did every character a trans latinx black otherwin womyn? Because the thing has to sell so you can keep your job. We already know the major beats of the story and it blows. How many people wont buy the game after the leak we dont know what we DO KNOW is that they are shitting bricks, what we DO KNOW is that they are hiding Abby and her trans chink mong. What we DO KNOW is that Neil is on full damage control mode. The guy is a coward fuck him and fuck his bullshit game.

I cant wait for this game to come out. My co-worker is genuinely excited for it despite what i've told him.

"The gameplay looks good"
"It can't be that bad"
"Naughty dog only releases bangers"
"There is no way that it can be that bad, I refuse to believe that"

:story: Im going to be the happiest boy in the world when this shit drops.
