TROON IS THE DEFAULT SEXUALITY!

"If you had respected my pronouns you wouldn't be dead now MOM!" :mad:

It all feels like a tumblr level fantasy. Kids who think they are being abused because their parents won't bow down to the genderspecial social plague.

This is 100% pandering. And the kid isn't even dysphoric. In fact, that's even better because in the current year you don't need dysphoria to be trans and insinuating that you do is transphobic. Stop erasing troons! They are valid!
 
Looks like Jim Sterling decided to play TLOU2 instead of just talk about it on his main show
He brings up the story about the pipe falling through the ceiling of Naughty Dog one night while people were still working, as have a lot of people who act like this is damning evidence of Naughty Dog not caring about the well being of their employees. Industry analyst Michael Pachter, who I know has made some bone headed comments, pointed out that that incident speaks more to the incompetence of the construction crew or the owner of that space. It would’ve happened regardless if people were working overtime or not.

I agree but at the same time the fact that they have to work night shift due to the deadline is pretty damning itself.
 
Speaking of trannies one detail of the story I didn't learn until now is that Lev kills her/his mother. What underlying theme or message is there in a 13 year old troon murdering their parent who doesn't accept their troonery? Especially one that seemingly only wants to be a boy because she was going to be a child bride against her will, which is natural in a culture with strict gender roles.

Also their cult makes no goddamn sense. So some women become warriors and some are sold off to older men? They couldn't help but even try to make bad guys more woke?

Neil wanted the totally-not-christian evil cult to be inclusive and sexist at the same time. Lev wants to be a soldier instead of a wife so he shaves his head and "becomes a boy" but the seraphite already have a bunch of female soldiers without shaved heads so whats the point?! One of abby mini bosses is that hunched old lady! It's so useless that you can remove the trans part and achieve the same effect by saying Lev/Lily didnt want to marry someone they dont love (which is silly for a zombie apocalypse but still makes more sense).

I also want to point that after lev kills his mother, his sister is super okay with it and literally says "You did nothing wrong!" like their mother deserved to die. You should feel guilty about dead dogs but dead TERFs are totally fine!
 
Am I the only one that think Ellen is poorly written in this game? And I dont mean her actions, her overall dialogues is so uninteresting. She is just constantly apologizing, acting akward and "I dont know" this and that. The most I have seen emotion from her at the beginning of the game was getting made at strawman seth because of a "not-so-nice" word (kept vague enough so there isnt any chance to assume she is overreacting). Ellen just feels like a boring character now.
 
This, does put a smile on my face

So, I've got a buddy who served over in the Middle East. He's seen some shit. I was talking to him about the game and he told me about how Joel's death scene really freaked him out because of how they kept focusing on the shotgun wound to his leg. He ended up telling me that one of his buddies ended up getting a similar wound and that the game's rendering of it was pretty much exactly what it looked (and moved) like and that he couldn't stop thinking about it. He's the kind of guy who can stomach all sorts of fucked up gory shit and loves it but this scene really fucked with him.

Listen, I don't mind gore in games, but if you're making it so excessively detailed and realistic that you give a hardass veteran Afghanistan flashbacks, you just might be going overboard.
 
Ever noticed that society in a sense replaced spirituality, morality, reasoning with marxism, manipulation, marxist culture, government etc

They want to legit control people and everything. Suck people dry til they are as dead and low energy as they are in a sense
I'd argue that spirituality still exists and is used to replace religion. Spirituality doesn't have any rules or community that religion demands, it's a great replacement for modern narcissists who just put some random exotic religious statue in their living room and call it a day (which ironically is far more demeaning to the non western religion they stole it from).
 
Thought i'd never go back there
Probably quick look... then never again :P Probably nice guy irl. Just his political views is not something i can go along with. But whatever, for old times sakes
 
you know if they really wanted to push a "REVENGE IS BAD" plot, could've had Ellie kill Abby at the end, leave Lev alive. Fast forward two or three years, Ellie is happy in her lesbian house, knock on the door, it's Lev with a gun, credits.

just after seeing all these people on twitter crying "ELLIE SHOULD'VE GOT HER REVENGE" that would've been a much better way to drive the point home to those people instead of blue balling them.
