so where was the context that was going to make all those scenes "much better"

Nowhere to be found. I didn't think you could compress shit dense enough to be made into a readable disk but Naughty ZOG managed it. Literally nobody is happy about this shit, every single chat I've seen hates this garbage. Neil is about to find himself with a cardboard sign outside of a 7-11 at this rate.

After the reaction to the terrible ending is over with, I hope people start talking about the straight up false advertising in the trailers, it feels like the game was straight up rewritten at some points, with Joel being replaced by the Asian guy and his model being changed to make scenes in the trailer appear as flashbacks.

It's very telling that I've already burnt myself out on tlou2 and even caught myself saying "these retards are still posting these old as fuck memes" when the game isn't even out yet.

I don't know how but the franchise as a whole already feels used up before the second entry even comes out

Ironically for how much it is obvious Druckmann hates Joel. Joel is the only one to leave this game mostly undamaged as a character, His line about being willing to do it all again cements him as the only character I like.

His hate for Joel manifests in not completely destroying his character to satisfy his misery fetish.

I really hate the current year attacks on femininity. If they are so gung-ho on making sure transwomen feel comfortable why not make an appealins trans character instead of a sour lemon faced roid monster like Abby who may only look like a MA'AM? The entire excuse that female characters must be made less feminine so trans people are more comfortable should be seen as a slap in the face to the trans community. It's talking down to them and telling them when they should feel offended. Let's put a bandaid over your booboo so you can headcanon yourself as any female presenting character you want.

At this point I'm thinking this entire thing really is the equivalent of what Rian Johnson did in the TLJ not so much in terms of subversion, but specifically doing everything pretty much possible to rile the audience and to then pour oil on the fire should anyone complain about Abby for example by hiding behind excuses like "well you just transphobic or sexist if you don't like her."

There isn't enough popcorn on the planet for the shitstorm that's about to be unleashed.

Nah, Halo 5's ad campaign makes this seem like a non issue in comparison

 

[You're a Big Guy]

Amazing how the best part of the game was Joel and Ellie hanging out on her birthday.

Clench your assholes kids! The floodgate has opened!

Retardera is even more pissed now. Sonys very own little shill plantation has escaped.

Edit: This shit gives me life

Tomorrow when the normies get their hands on the game is going to be great, I can just tell.

Its actually very similar to the Halo 5 ad campaign. Normies who watched the trailers are coming into this game expecting to be hanging out with Joel on their quest for revenge against some group. Not for him to be murdered 3 hours in and for half of the game to be us playing as the troon who killed him.

Ah shit I been having so much fun with this shit show I forgot to go out to exercise.

Thank you Druckmann

I suspect it was a happy accident of Druckerman's INTENSE NEED to kill him. He seemed to realize at some point that joel died to early, so you get the flashbacks designed to retroactively ruin him. But Druckerman, have no idea what a agood relationship looks like, stumbles ass first into making us like Joel still by having him affirm he'd killt he fireflies all over again. That sounded BAD in the idiots head.

Ellie letting Abby go is even worse considering she apparently killed an 8 month pregnant woman at some point.

What happened there? I missed that part of the stream? Was Ellie just going to kill Owen and Mel tried to stop her so Mel got killed by accident? Or did Ellie kill Mel in cold blood?

Today, we laugh. Tomorrow we lift. Abby is Peak Male Physical Form, and we must surpass it!

@Salubrious Mel went after Ellie after she popped Owen, so it was self defense, technically.

>Even resetera is pissed about this
You fucked up, Druckboy, you fucked up real bad.

 

[Focken Kiwi]

Tales of Berseria is legit good, even if I want to strangle one of the characters to death for being annoying.

Let me guess, Beinfu?

if I recall right, preggo lady attacked Ellie from behind, Ellie didn't know she was prego until after.
