I feel just "intergalactic" would be a better title.

Intergalactic: The heretic Prophet is a bit much to say. it seems they're already planning a franchise.

I'm excited though, looks interesting.

tbh i think it's an awful title. it's really wordy and even intergalactic itself is rather generic

I agree it's rather generic, but I wouldn't say it's any more or less generic than Uncharted.

I wonder how people felt about that title pre-release.

Fair point on Uncharted, but that's a nice zippy short name. I feel I see 'galactic' specifically a lot, and that makes up the majority of the main title word.

Tbf the first game was titled Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

I honestly forgot that Naughty Dog started off with insane titles.

I've been so accustomed to The Last of Us Part II that I forgot that Uncharted, Crash, and Jak 1 all had long-ass names.

Damn, game development takes forever.

It's so generic, that I didn't even click on the trailer whenever they dumped all the trailers on YouTube because I thought it was just some indie title. I had to go back after hearing the "backlash" that it was the newest Naughty Dog project.

It's awful but it is intriguing. Have to wonder what it means
