The Last of Us Franchise - Because it's apparently a franchise now. This thread has been double-DMCA’d by Sony Interactive Entertainment.

At least you could tell Dunkey was sort of half-joking in this video which makes it easier to enjoy. His previous TLOU2 videos makes it clear he'd be Abby's butt-buddy in a heartbeat.

He wants to get thrown around like the little bitch he is. Except he's not actually gay. Not many other women that are strong enough, real or digital, can get him erect and earn him woke points.

 

[Optimus Prime]

Yet they wonder why abby is hated. I been seeing a lot of ugly female characters recently.

They don't wonder why, they know damn well why.

But this is a case of them hijacking a beloved franchise and trying to basically force people into accepting that Abby isn't a hulking abomination because why would they hate something in a franchise they love so near and dear to their hearts?

It's simply gaslighting. With kerosene.

With no one able to stop him, he gave high priase to TLOU2 and was offered a role for the TV show.

Joke's on him - nerds already figured out how to fix the dislikes button.

[The Ugly One]

These people have no idea what they want. Hot girl prances around in fishnets on OnlyFans? Empowering. Somebody makes a video game where a hot girl prances around in fishnets? Dehumanizing. Objectifying. Muh male gaze. The only thing every one of these goofballs seem to agree is good is fat, ugly, unfriendly chicks nobody wants to be around.

Same people love to slobber about believing in science, but will shriek until blood comes out the wherever when you point out that the female form evolved specifically to attract the male gaze.

 

[Mary the Goldsmith]

In the same breath, those people openly refuse to acknowledge that Samus has been running around for decades kicking ass and the most openly hated game with Samus in it is the one where she isn't an independent woman free to actually be a badass, instead having to follow orders of some military asshole for completely arbitrary reasons.

This is another perfect example of them only liking something because "the enemy" hates it, as you said they either ignore Samus' existence or say she doesn't count because she has a sexy design, then you have faggots like Dobson and some recent Redditors defending Other M, because it "gave Samus feelings" completely ignoring the fact that the game turns her into a submissive bitch with daddy issues.

When Flamenco debated Jangles, Jangles pulled his 'I HAVE TWO DEGREES' bullshit and argued Abby's body is realistic because she works out, not knowing that Abby's model was a body builder and body builders consume obscene amounts of protein. It's been shown even in the first game that crops and livestock are rare and meat is something luxurious. You hear a line in the first game about Hunters getting excited over finding a cache of bacon.

The old "Do you even lift bro?" meme would fit here, its incredibly obvious all these retards know jackshit about body building, their usual arguement is "You can see a gym on Abby's compund at the start, checkmate incel" not knowing that you can lift weights all you want but without the correct diet you will never get a body like Abby's, a diet that should be next to impossible to obtain in the post-apocalypse, hell you can give Abby some development this way, have a scene where a younger Abby get into a situation where she is not strong enough to get out from (have a log fall on top of her, have the only working car get stuck in the mud and she can't push it out before the zombies arrive), so someone has to save her and ends up getting killed maybe someone close to her, so Abby develops this obsession with growing stronger and she starts munching on steroids or something, its still dumb but at least it could give her some character

The only thing other M turned samus into was a retard because the controller scheme was entirely unintuitive.

I remember having to read the instruction booklet on how to jump because of how abnormal that scheme was. Story was the least of that game's problem.

Like fuck who cares about Samus' daddy issues where you can't see shit due to camera issues.

Like post-work out you need like 20-40 grams of protein regularly within the first half hour after you're done with your session.

People can go insane with calorie counts, but you're most definetly going to eat more than what a normal person does.

(Warning for me getting all autistic, and also spoilers for one of my all time favorite video games)

Honestly, knowing that Metal Gear Solid 2 is Druckmann's favorite game of the PS2 era, that really puts a lot into perspective. I think he tried to do what Kojima did for that sequel with his, and maybe create his own socially relevant, subversive, postmodern, and timeless masterpiece, even down to him stating that he knew it would be divisive, and much like with Raiden for Kojima, he even stated that newcomer Abby was his favorite character. Heck, he even pulled the same stunt with misleading trailers and a protagonist switch early in the game, along with heavy handed morals and philosophizing.

Thing is, I don't really think he understood why MGS2 worked the way it did, only the surface level stuff. Everything in that game was done for much more than just angering the audience and having them "feel something," a defense I see a lot from people trying to defend these sorts of works (it made you feel something, so that makes it good).

The whole point of MGS2 was to toy with and deconstruct the mechanics and nature of video games, the player's interactions with them, hold up a mirror to how these games are indeed, nothing but fiction, how easily one can be manipulated simply by being presented with an enticing scenario, how the digital age can blind us, etc. Plus, despite all the cynicism, it ended on a hopeful and idealistic note, that while what you experienced was entirely controlled, and wasn't real, the memories and experiences you had from it are still valuable, and worth passing on, reflecting the whole "Meme" concept the game is centered upon.

Oh yeah, and it didn't complete disrespect the previous game's hero just to force a new one onto the audience. If anything, Snake was shown in a much better light than before, with Raiden not being framed as someone you should like necessarily, but again, to hold up a mirror to the player and make them wonder about how they, like him, reacted to all the events. Both the indictment by The Patriots and Snake's uplifting last words to him were meant just as much for Raiden as they were for the player, hence the dogtags with your name on it that he wears, and him throwing them off when the game is finished, as he's no longer under your control.

Druckmann it seems, only really was into the surface level details, only liking how the game tricked the player and subverted their expectations, along with how angry it made them feel, as opposed to actually understanding why MGS2 was doing it all, or how it went about it. There's no real usage of the video game medium in a meaningful manner, just as an excuse to get from one cutscene to another. It doesn't its subversion for anything other than player unfulfillment and character destruction, and to cram the extremely obvious message down their throat. A message which is extremely muddied thanks to having both of them (revenge and forgiveness) clashing hard with one another, and is nowhere near as timeless or thought-provoking as Druckmann thinks it is. It's so full of itself and takes itself way too seriously as well, compared to the more lighthearted manner of MGS2, that it ironically comes off more comical.

Someone really needs to hit Druckmann over the head with a copy of Metal Gear Solid 2 and point out to him why it worked, as opposed to what he thought made it what it was.

I think that's one thing I appreciate about Westaboos. They understand how to parody their own medium because of the amount of freedom they've given themselves when telling a story. Druckmann and the general Western video game industry don't really do that.

Like killer7? Despite how absolutely crazy the game is, it's not only a good representation on the relationship between the Eastern powers and the Western powers of the world, but also a parody of itself running contrarian to the shooter genre. It's designed as a rail shooter that intentionally prohibits you from doing things Call of Duty or Battlefield would let you do.

This is especially funny because all three of these characters Quiet, Kasumi, and Cortana have more realistic female bodies than Abby.

And Quiet and Kasumi were created by Japanese developers. It's Western bigotry. They want the East to bow down to their demands.

I don't remember where I read it but I remember someone saying that back in the day writers had experienced some tough shit first hand, Tolkien fought in WWI and some say the famous "I can't belive I'm gonna die fighting alongside an elf. How about alongside a friend?" line came from an exchange between a french and a british soldier. true or not the guy did experience war first hand. Meanwhile today we have pampered first world soyboys whose most traumatic experience was getting misgendered at Starbucks, and thats how you end up with lines like "bigot sandwiches"

People actually had to either experience being in the military or do extensive research and interviews to do something like that, which is why Tom Clancy had the status that he had.

Neil could give less of a shit, which is why he wrote it upon hmself to have an obviously pregnant woman fight with Abby and the lot.

I'm sick of people acting like men are incapable of appreciating female characters that don't "appeal to the male gaze." No one cares if a woman is butch/tomboyish or muscular, TLOU2 isn't breaking the ground you think it is.

Nevermind that if Ellie in TLOU2 didn't "appeal to the male gaze", there wouldn't be a bunch of Rule 34 centered around her, regardless of how attractive or unattractive she would look to a bunch of people.

When Flamenco debated Jangles, Jangles pulled his 'I HAVE TWO DEGREES' bullshit and argued Abby's body is realistic because she works out, not knowing that Abby's model was a body builder and body builders consume obscene amounts of protein. It's been shown even in the first game that crops and livestock are rare and meat is something luxurious. You hear a line in the first game about Hunters getting excited over finding a cache of bacon.

This reminds me of how people claimed that the new He-Man show had realistic female bodies and the 1980s one didn't, even though you could prove that rotoscoping was a thing back then and that artists drew over actual female fitness models for the show.

These people have no idea what they want. Hot girl prances around in fishnets on OnlyFans? Empowering. Somebody makes a video game where a hot girl prances around in fishnets? Dehumanizing. Objectifying. Muh male gaze. The only thing every one of these goofballs seem to agree is good is fat, ugly, unfriendly chicks nobody wants to be around.

Same people love to slobber about believing in science, but will shriek until blood comes out the wherever when you point out that the female form evolved specifically to attract the male gaze.

You can apply this same line of reasoning with the current culture of video games. For the past several years, women and male feminists bitched about objectifying women in video games. Then, Lady Dimitriescu comes along, an obviously sexualized character, and they either say nothing/ignore it or want to play RE8 in VR so they can motorboat her melons.

They really don't know what they want out of the things they criticize.

Yeah, it's why I find the whole rejection of gender by the idiots online (and sadly, also Bill Nye given what he said on the subject once like a dofus). Male and Female are literally a biological concept revolving around the reproductive system. Calling yourself a woman entirely just to refute the social construct around genders does not inherently invalidate your biology.

That, and most of the time the most well known trannies are horrible people who expose their true nature regardless and completely invalidate anything they do to try and come off convincingly as the other gender. People who genuinely want to be the other gender actually put effort into it and just don't make a big deal because they transitioned for their sake and don't give a damn about what other people think.

This is another perfect example of them only liking something because "the enemy" hates it, as you said they either ignore Samus' existence or say she doesn't count because she has a sexy design, then you have faggots like Dobson and some recent Redditors defending Other M, because it "gave Samus feelings" completely ignoring the fact that the game turns her into a submissive bitch with daddy issues.

I find it ties back to the same shit that went down with Gamergate, where they show they don't really understand the field they claim to be experts about. No strong females in gaming? Samus has been kicking ass since the NES days and the secret ending of the original game makes it blatantly clear she's female, and the Metroid Prime series was one of the best game trilogies ever made. Or Laura Croft - she was around WAY before the guy from Uncharted, had her own movie (which itself had amusement park rides themed after it!).

They'll do this with things that actually would support their arguments too. 'My Soggy Knees' in gaming? During that whole shitshow, not once was Duke Nukem Forever mentioned by the Anti-GG side, even though that game makes a POINT of having women throw themselves at Duke constantly, to say nothing of the 'Capture the Babe' multiplayer mode.

They're just parasites trying to inject their bullshit into the mainstream, nothing more.

Science to these people has nothing to do with evidence-driven inference about the natural world. It means clapping and horking like a seal when an Official Science Authority appears on the TV screen to tell you that Republicans are stupid troglodytes.

Which is why I can't WAIT to see how the people who treated hormonal injections like designer drugs just for points on twitter are going to start becoming messed up on the level of Ozzy Osborne in some years time.

Btw, guess what TV Tropes sees as an awesome moment for this game on a meta level?

Not mine. It's just that tv tropes and these woke journos keeps acting like tlou2 is the first and only game to feature playable female characters

well she is a child (until like season 4 but even then she's like 17 by then) and that'd be really creepy

That didn't stop r34 of her existing. Wish i was making that up. But still it doesn't stop from the idea of abby and ellie being the first playable female characters without the "male gaze" being outright ridiculous.

bigger question is if they care. porn was always a lucrative market, the more google gets pozzed and filtered the more people are inclined using a competing service to give them what they're looking for.
if it's an issue just enable safe search.
