Video Feature: Designing Infamous Second Son

In addition to taking the leap to the next console generation, the developers at Sucker Punch Productions are exploring within the Infamous universe by putting players in charge of a new protagonist named Delsin Rowe. Armed with smoke-controlling powers in the open-world environment of Seattle, Delsin's introduction to players is assisted by Sucker Punch's new designer (formerly of Bungie) named Jaime Griesemer.

Love how Nate Fox mentions chain link fences when talking about stuff Delsin can easily traverse, because they were Cole's arch nemesis in Infamous 1.

What is wrong with people? Can I ask how everyone in the world knew that every Conduit died? Did they go to every corner of the globe and ask 'Did your Conduit die?'. When there is a global plague does everyone die? How does anyone know Conduits didn't resist the device or managed to survive it? Everywhere I go in the comments people keep saying 'I though all the Conduits died'. Think about it. How did the ENTIRE world know that every Conduit in the world was dead? Did they speed around the world asking 8 billion people if all the Conduits were dead? Of course the news would only report the deaths they know about but what about people who live away from society or hiding from others?

Obviously all the Conduits didn't die or they wouldn't be trying to police them now.Plus no one ever said that new Conduits could never be born again.Cole used a machine with no grantee that it would kill every Conduit in the world. In fact the very concept that Cole could stand in one place and the device reaching every single corner of globe is not plausible anyway.

Well duh it's implausible, it's a bleeding video game about people who can shoot electricity from their fingertips (which, somehow, also stops him breaking every bone in his body and rupturing every organ when dropping from great heights) and transform into smoke clouds, launching said smoke like projectiles capable of lethal harm.

Cole's heroic sacrifice in Infamous 2 killed everyone with the Conduit Gene, regardless of whether or not they had awakened their powers. What I'm banking on with Second Son is that someone's found a way to artificially create Conduits via another Ray Sphere, thereby giving anyone powers who wants them. Or that's one theory anyway.

smashcrashbash4734d ago

That is not what I mean. Having someone with powers and plausibility is two different things.Just because you make up a story with a guy that can shoot lighting out of his hands doesn't mean you just can write any nonsense and it will suffice.Even when you are writing fiction you have to keep an element of sense or your just writing nonsense. Like I said NO ONE said all Conduits died and no one said no Conduit could ever be born again.If the Mayor of the city could mass produce Conduits I don't see why anyone else can't do the same thing.

@smashcrashbash: Ah, sorry. I appear to have misinterpreted your original post entirely.

N4OGs4734d ago

yeah i agree they can just make another ray sphere or conduits could of been immune to whatever the things that could kill them was. didnt they say another explosion happend and deslin pulling people from a wreckage realised he had some powers or something somewhere. seems like what happend to cole is happening again.

Skate-AK4734d ago

Oh that's cool. Didn't know they got a designer from Bungie.

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

gold_drake645d ago

quite honestly, i dont remember a whole lot about 2 amymore, but i absolutely hated the guy in second son haha.

chicken_in_the_corn644d ago

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.

Cacabunga643d ago

Doesnt make any sense calling second son 2 as infamous 3..

OtterX644d ago

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. :)

thejigisup644d ago

Everyone that age is obnoxious. It's been years and is like to think delsin has grown

neutralgamer1992644d ago

Until we wait for a potential new entry it would awesome to have infamous collection for PS5

RaidenBlack644d ago

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?

Pepsi_Man3000644d ago

resistance is insomniac I think

xHeavYx644d ago

Can we also get a complete remaster of InFamous 1 and 2?

fr0sty643d ago

Gimme a new Warhawk and MAG while we're at it.

DivineHand125644d ago

I had a great time with the second son. Never got to play the originals and hope they get remastered one day.

DazaMc644d ago

The graphics were amazing, I got the platinum on that one. Very good.

ChasterMies644d ago (Edited 644d ago )

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.

Tacoboto644d ago (Edited 644d ago )

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.

jznrpg644d ago

Spider-Man is guaranteed and is made by Insomniac so why not both as Sucker Punch would make Infamous.
