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

I call 100% bullshit on them saying Abby isn't trans.

Listen. There is no conceivable way in this plane of reality that female boobs look like that. Unless she has been chest-binding for years and/or was born with some severe possibly intersex defects, female boobs do NOT fucking look like that. Even if you have tiny A-cup boobs, they don't look like that. Abby's boobs are flat and muscular with a solid complexion. They don't hold weight or react to physical movement the way real boobs do. They look like pecs. Muscley, manly pecs. Which, even on a really muscular woman, is impossible.

I don't have an issue with making an actual trans character (if they're likable/it's not all about them being trans), but Abby takes the cake on all levels in that she is both physically and emotionally completely repulsive. ND being straightforward and confirming her as trans would have at least made sense given her model. But the fact that they're being coy about it and refusing to confirm it just makes them look more retarded because female. Bodies. Don't. Look. Like that.

Tv Tropers users, while also disliking the game, are lamenting how some of the game's criticism is "bigoted":


"Man, the TLOU subreddit has basically become a wall of homophobic memes."

"It gave terrible people the perfect opportunity to blame diversity as the reason the game is bad instead of poor writing."

"It’s the worst of all worlds. Rather than see through the shields put up and blame the awful writing and self indulgent (at best) decisions, people will blame diversity as a whole (Which isn’t the problem) and a lot of legitimate complaints will be lost in a torrent of reactionary anger."

"It's Captain Marvel all over again. At this point I don't even know why I bother."

"Yep. why blame bad writing when you can blame Anita Sarkeesian visiting the studio once."

Lol.

Lol to all of that. We're not allowed to make fun of a broad who looks like Brock Lesner. Also, I'm pretty sure the game is universally panned because of it's shit writing but yeah, only home in on the people not talking about the shit writing and use those as examples for every person who dislikes the game.

The interesting thing is it just started out as a shitpost on 4chan but people even excited for the game started to refer to abby as trans. Personally it was obvious they fucked up the modeling and not that abby was trans but even joe normie thought she was made me laugh my ass off.

I like that it's ambiguous enough it manages to piss off literally everyone somehow. Also maybe Abby isn't a tranny but it is definitely a troon.

I've looked at streams and the gameplay actually looks decent, it's just that the story and characters surrounding it are god awful. I think we already saw the beginnings of this with Uncharted 4.

The physics looks pretty janky to me and it looked like even imbeciles and games journalists could beat the completely non-dangerous zombies easily.

Fourth game has you in a african town and savannah. Second half of the game has you on a jungle island where there's a pirates. All the pirates killed each other fighting over loot. The villain is a rich treasure hunter asshole and the cunty mulatto mercenary he hired for the job. Near the end the cunt abandons the asshole because he was an asshole.
Click to expand...
The fourth game felt empty without that supernatural twist. The whole time I was waiting for the discovery of the unknown horror that killed the pirates when it turns out that they just killed each other. After 3 straight games of the treasure being guarded by some ancient evil, that's just lame in comparison. It might have been formulaic given that it was the twist of every game, but come on, this is the final game in the series. You don't make an interesting story by just removing interesting plot threads, especially if you're making a climax to a series about hunting ancient supernatural treasure.

This goes back to what everyone on this thread has said and what many others will continue to say. Neil Druckmann, in his fucking delusions, works so hard to show that there are "women of all shapes and sizes" that he went full fucking circle and made one of the characters a straight-up troon.

Who's more sexist Neil? Us for saying it looks like a man? Or you for painting women everywhere as either complicated lesbians, manly troons, or if they are normal then they fucking die like in the first game.

I remember when I said Abby's a tranny in a youtube comment section, the utter amount of pure anger launched at me speaks fucking volumes about who this game is for.

One thing is certain, it's not for me. But if I can get it for free, I will.

Fair enough and you do have a point namely why at this point they don't just cut Sony loose and go PC/Switch only.

But I'm not a fan of any company having vague guidelines they can use to arbitrarily fuck over anyone they choose when the mood hits.

Ironically this was the kind of shit that helped Nintendo to get double dicked by both Sega and Sony in the 90s. Publishers increasingly fed up with vague and draconian guidelines dictating what was acceptable to release on the platform.

This feels less like vague guidelines and more like a personal vendetta.

It's too fucking precise every time if it's 90% of the time one company who keeps triggering it. They're also a british company who seems to be primarily interested in bringing over visual novels. There's something going on that needs investigating because this seems like something involving personal history. It's like they made the rule just for PQube specifically. Like a Stonecutters NO HOMERS rule.

Nintendo's rules in the 90's were way more draconian, while vague guidelines are not good they don't even approach to how things were back then.

Abby's secondary sex characteristics are very screwed up in an attempt to be progressive. It seems people the character designers at Naughty Dog have fully brought into the most insane ideas the transgender community has. Mainly that sex is a complete social constructed and that what were secondary sex characteristics exclusive to one sex can appear in all or any sex. Even the most ripped woman is going to have breasts that reflect their intended purpose due to their anatomical construction. The breasts Abby have are what you would find in fetish porn which is probably where the leads got their inspiration.

It didn't need a supernatural twist. But at least make it impact the story somewhat. Don't just have it as world building and have the climax of the series be a shitty swordfight with the blonde rival. Focus on it more. Make it actually impact the story. Put you in the same shoe as the pirates who went full lord of the flies on each other. Just having them as a backdrop while you and your brother push another cart to get to the villains is boring.

That water in the ending looked especially bad to me, and the extension cord puzzles had some unusual bounce to the cords and loops; it all looks extremely unnatural. In trying to be more realistic, they leave massive gaps in what looks and feels real. Crushing zombie heads seems superhuman in strength when these folks have to struggle in grapples with them.

Considering how loveless and unpleasant its played as, I'd believe it. Amateur pornhub wannabes can fake those grunts and moans better.

I’m only disappointed in the lack of QTEs during the tranny butt sex.
And yes, Abby is a tranny until they come out and say they intended for her to be a cis woman. Not “a woman :smug:.”

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if Druckman pulls out the trans card if reception of the game goes even further south.

"We made her a ~hidden trans~ character, much like many of you non-binary heroes who endure the same struggles every day!

As such, I'm really disappointed in the anti-trans reception this game has been receiving. You bigots."
