So someone said earlier that life is strange 2 did so badly it killed off the series. Any truth to that that can be Confirmed? And if it is true and the same ends up happening to naughty dog over this debacle then Neil druckmann and all of ND will only get what they fucking deserve!

If the scuttlebutt is true, if tlou2 does financially fail, Sony would most likely cut their losses, spin off ND and dump them with the bill.

At least Gone Home was short.

Boomer executives don't understand twitter and just believe "the young people" when they say that, uhm, akshually, everyone is all about this

Boomers tended to have higher trust in media and the power of media (rather than in independent people like streamers) and so they fear getting negative hit-pieces

The way negative hit-pieces come about is that the wokescolds working at these companies tell their buddies and pals working in journalism that they've got a scoop and a story, and no matter how few people actually read the fucking nothing of an article that comes out, the wokescold working there will use the company's gossip channels of communication to make sure everyone thinks it's a huge deal

when you work at a massive company, you get tuned in to a lot of news about said company that NO ONE else ever knows about, and people act like is a giant bombshell

You'd think since these people dealt with pre-internet Twitter. * angry soccer moms writing in to complain * They'd realize it's the same thing.

You mean like how the critics eviscerated the last jedi? It's basically the same thing.

Forbes is already bitching about review bombing.

ME3/TLJ 2.0 is upon us.

Pewdiepie is streaming this in chunks and just went live in what looks like a sponsor thing so he probably won't be honest. Seems to be in the beginning where Abby hasn't met Joel yet. Just want to see his face react to the sex scene.

I feel bad for the poor soul who has to make/design an Abby one, if that ever happens.

i have my doubts they will be making a abby version

I'm pretty sure Anita's endgame is to destroy the gaming industry.

Little does she know, if she succeeds, from the ashes will come a plethora of great games with conventionally hot women and good gameplay.
Cheers to anime titties and new IPs, lads.

more anime games definitely but no new IPS, the vidya industry just won't make those much anymore even after a crash it will all mostly be remakes of shit to be honest

So do you think the first day sales will be enough or are we going to get a lot of "It was the best selling game of June 19th between the hours of 9am and noon in history!" goofiness like they did with Death Stranding?

 

[blablabla]

Why is the media press reacting to the review bomb? bunch of payed shills.

 

[Tard]

Has PewDiePie gotten to AbbyTime™ yet?

 

[Notgoodwithusernames]

Bet $30 it has you playing as the asian tranny for maximum simp cred

It seems pathetic enough to compete with the forced lesbian drama of the last sappy DLC in the franchise

I actually liked the DLC up until the closet moment. I hate how in this day and age any meaningful interaction between two people of the same sex is automatically construed as homosexual in nature. If I had first played the DLC back in 2014 I’d have been ok with it but now knowing the type of person Druckmann is I have a much more cynical viewpoint.

because they tied their identity to the brand, anything that goes against it is a personal attack as without it they are nothing.

personally, I blame Fujos

the first lis has around 100k reviews on steam. lis2 has about 10k.
It was getting less and less media attention with each episode. 2 years later and the only thing people remember about this game is that the kids were mexican and an underage sex scene. If it was a hit they wouldn't be calling their next game "Number 5 Killed My Brother" or something

Oh make no mistake this is going to be ME3/TLJ all over again.

I blame gayness becoming a fashion trend for spoiled hipsters for this.

People who wack/slick it to gay/lesbo porn are now able to make their fetish a political statement.

The sad thing is that Abby COULD have been made into a character people could actually sympathize with or maybe like in some way shape or form if some actual effort was put into fleshing her out as a character rather than shove her bitter tasting ass down our throats and then calling us bigots and transphobic when we spit it back out. We make fun of her hideous appearance more so because she's an ugly character more than anything else. Her looking like a troon is just a secondary failure to her as a character. Plenty of people have already pointed out why she's such a shit character handled in a shit way and tons of different ways she could have been written to make her 100 times better narrative wise.
This is why people hate the game. They don't hate the troon for looking like a troon. They hate her because she fucking sucks, is irredeemable, has plot armor that causes the rest of the cast to have the collective intelligence of a dog's turd around her, and worst of all, not only do they force us to play as a character that they make us hate within the first 2 hours of the game, but she gets away completely scott free and faces absolutely no repercussions for all of the fucked up shit she's done because once again, her plot armor causes Ellie to develop severe brain damage and decide to let her go after everything she'd been through just to get to her. You know, the whole fucking point of the game.

And that's the biggest failure of woke culture in the media. Instead of writing a decent character that just happens to be gay or trans, They write a character where being gay or trans is basically their character, and then basically it is to hell with any likeable qualities, and then get angry that people hate the character because they want to blame "people hating the (insert marginalized) community" instead of their own lazy writing. if they want to write a character that is so trans that they look like a fucking linebacker instead of whatever gender he/she is trying to look, then nobody will give a shit as long as it is well done and the character is likeable. there are many examples of unlikeable characters that are not from whatever community, but again I suspect the whole "they hate" spiel may just be an excuse to not admit they are just shitty writers.

Because they know their days are numbered and/or take joy twisting the knife they continually have been plunging on the gullible masses.

the best scene in the game
View attachment 1389521

Notice how this woman looks proportionally normal. Her chest is almost non existent, however in this case it makes sense because the rest of her lines up with what a typical woman with small tits looks like. Compare her to Abby who also has a non existent chest but with body proportions akin to a body builder (mind you, Abby apparently was born this way because she was built like a dude since she was younger apparently). There's a noticeable difference. Granted if Abby was in fact transgender, then her body build is exactly what you would expect. But she's not, and her body does not realistically portray how a muscled woman typically looks like. (I don't even know if Abby is shown to be doing a body builder's work out which would be difficult in post apocalyptic america because there's hardly any food you can use for the muscle gains. It's the fucking apocalypse, everyone should be thin because hello, food is supposed to be scarce and in short supply).

There's also the weird part about Abby having multiple love interests?? I dunno if that's true or not but, I find it odd how all the guys want to fuck the broad that looks like a dude that could fucking body slam them with enough force to send them to the Earth's center. Some guys like women like that...but not all of them, you know? I dunno, seems out of place to me.

A few years ago a crash definitely would have saved the industry, but now? Now it's just going to give room for apple and amazon to slide in. Realistically, the gaming industry SHOULD have crashed in 2012, and things would have gotten better, but we've been subjected to an increasingly more cynical and nefarious set of monetization schemes ever since in order to stave off the crash that would have happened in 2012.

This isn't new. It's in the same ballpark as those pieces that declare that, because the last wokeshit onslaught failed, that the progressive renaissance "never truly began until [CURRENT YEAR]". Because fucking up so many times means "it wasn't the right time".

 

[Tanner Glass]

Why is the default position of game reviewers and game journalists extreme faggotry? Look at this nigger. It's almost like he's foaming at the lips to own the "gaming man babies", when in fact, he's the little faggot bitching about it online. (Edit: It seems he's deleting comments now)

https://archive.md/bsaWB

Because game reviewers feel like they're actually friends (or in many cases, are friends/fuck buddies/lovers/etc) with the developers.

These "gaming man babies" aren't trashing a shitty game - they're destroying art that his close friend Druckmann worked slavishly on for seven years. Also if he doesn't protect it, Sony may not give him an early copy of their next console release and the review would come out late.

 

[itskaon]

i get finally get the "theme" or the "message" of this shit game. its a classic (((tactic))) where the troon beat the shit out of joel and killed him and gets revenge, but if Ellie gets revenge then she is just as bad as the troon. not only that but the troon gets away practically unharmed with his bf while Ellie lost her "father" and two fingers

"revenge for me but not for thee goy"
