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

You know, let's put aside Neil Druckmann's clear hatred for the original game and its fans, and his enormous unwarranted ego leading to multiple masturbatory self-inserts. Let's put aside the useless FtM trans character or the "strong independent woman" built like a gorilla wearing a fridge. Let's put aside the studio having such a lack of faith in their playerbase that they made it so you can't shoot the Star of David. Let's put aside the hypocrisy of Sony going turbo prude and censoring every anime tiddy game while letting this travesty of a sex scene go through completely fine.

My biggest problem with this game's story is that the writing is just so fucking poor. There's all these stories you could tell about the apocalypse or its aftermath, but Neil decides to go with a shitty revenge story. I have played terrible free-to-play Korean MMOs that have told better revenge stories than TLoU2. Here's an easy tip - if you're trying to write a revenge story where the main message you want to convey is about how revenge is bad, you shouldn't let the revenge-taker (Abby in this case) completely get away with taking their revenge, suffering zero repercussions and getting everything they wanted to boat off into the sunset.

This truly is the Cars 2 of Naughty Dog.

If it really was Cars 2 then it would be a case of them sacrificing creative integrity in order to create a product that exists solely to sell toys. (Fun fact, the best selling cars toy from the first movie by far was from thst dream sequence where lightning is flying around with wings and shooting missiles at shit, which I imagine influenced the plot of the sequel a lot).

I don’t think people are lining up to buy neca action figures of Abby threatening to murder pregnant Jews, even if they have extreme buttfuck special actions.

Could someone explain "bigot sandwich" to me? I cannot imagine a context in which this makes sense.

Wow Joel died, who knew!

Could someone explain "bigot sandwich" to me? I cannot imagine a context in which this makes sense.

Ellie is dancing with the Nose at an event in Jackson, some drunk boomer walks up to her and calls her and the Nose a Dyke. The next day he apologizes for his behavior and makes them steak sandwiches as a form of asking them for forgiveness, thus, bigot sandwiches.

Could someone explain "bigot sandwich" to me? I cannot imagine a context in which this makes sense.

In the game someone gets fucking muntered on hillbilly IPA and calls Ellie a dyke or something. In the morning he makes her some steak(!) sandwiches to apologise because he really did feel bad about it. Ellie sneers 'Bigot sandwiches' at him because being a snarky bitch in the face of this kind of generosity in the post-apocolypse is more important than survival!

Plus, larry the cable guy is much less insufferable than any of the characters from TLoU 2

This tees me off.
Because that's what's really important during the fucking apocalypse, lgbt rights and not you know...general fucking survival in a post apocalyptic world. If I'm trying to survive in this type of world the last fucking thing I'll be thinking about is "huh, will people accept my gayness?"

No, my thoughts would be "who gives a fucking shit what anyone thinks as long as they don't try to fucking kill me"

She could have just called him a rude dickhead and it would produce the same effect minus the virtue signal.

There's that Spongebob Remake that's comming out in 3 days

Sibling's played the first three hours. Says nothing's really grabbing him, and he figured that would happen because he sees no reason for the sequel to exist, but he does like the gameplay.

He also said he thinks Abby is hideous. I don't think he's gotten to that scene yet.

2020 has been a year defined by ports, remakes and remasters so not really tho this guy has a good idea

I'll ask again, why does every Western media company think these assclowns are the golden demograph?

They make up less than 2% of the population,are NEVER satisfied and if you even slightly cross them will try to get you fired.

Because it's not about the actual demographic (it's never been for the past decade or so). It's about their would be "allies" that are caught up in the "trend" and about dividing people between those that don't like or care for this crap anymore and those that want to be seen as "tolerant", "current year", and "progressive".

First day sales for this game may be good thanks to normies and fans of the original that went in blind. But once they start experiencing the swill-level writing that is the story of TLOU2 sales are going to nosedive once word-of-mouth spreads. Journos still have not come to terms with the fact that their influence in the game buying public is nearly irrelevant. Most people form their opinions as to whether or not to make a game purchase based on what their family and friends play, on Youtube playthroughs, reviewers and streamers.

This game is going to flop hard. People's tolerance to woke bullshit in the current environment is at an all time low and will not give their, more than ever, hard earned cash to some narcissist's vanity project.

I hope this puts all involved in the making of this train wreck millions in the red. Thinking that, yet again, this is another endeavor that has been influence by Anita Sarkeessian poisonous touch of failure just brings a smile to my face.

This is completely nonsensical writing. Anyone who offers free fucking beef in the context of TLoUs setting is a goddamn saint, even if they were to spend most of their free time openly ranting and raving about smelly spics and awful jewniggers.

Free beef. Free cow, in a post-apocalypse. That is beyond generous.

Can't wait for Dartigan EWW for this shit and that faggot E;R better resurrect and do a video too.

Actually, Druckman should personally owe $60 to anyone who bought this trainwreck.




How many troons are actually going to buy the game vs. liking tweets and ranting about represetation?

Abby is not appealing, inspiring or relatable in any way. She is a serial killer on a one note revenge rampage. Wrong character to spread this inclusion diatribe with. It seems not even Resetera likes Abby. The character is a failure.

Character creators are a dufferent ballgame than static characters you cannot change anything about. If you want better CC then fine. Make one. Then every troon can make their ideal dream doll to parade around on their twitters and tumblrs and probably not finish the game because buttons are hard.

If they wanted to do Abby right they should have opened with flashbacks of little Abby playing with her dad and her reaction when she found out he had been killed. Establish her as a human being before she bashes Joel's head in like a watermelon at a Gallagher show. Maybe make a branching path where she has the choice of killing Joel or letting him live. She kills Joel and Ellie rightfully comes after her. She decides to let him live and her story takes on a more positive tone. She has to live with the body coubt but she can also take the oatg if atonement.

Maybe she should have honored her father the right way and took uo the study of Medicine. Maybe make sure the mistakes of the past are not repeated.

They did it wrong. So you don't care about Abby and her being a woMAN trannies can relate to falls apart because she is a horrible person with a river of Joel blood constantly swelling behind her.

Maybe it's better that this game is a dumpster fire. It's funnier that way. These are trying times and we need all the laughs we can get.

Any tranny not gulping down the kool aid should be offended by Abby. Druckman is basically saying a trans woman is just a man with long hair (I know guys but hear me out) which is not something they should want to hear but hey what do I know about wokeness.

This is exactly what Anita wanted, this whole time. Preachy, woke crap in lieu of storytelling. Female protagonists with flat chests and androgynous features, because giving the audience an erection is a terrible crime, apparently.
