Neil made sure to drive out anyone who could do that. There are no veterans left at ND, all the other positions of power are Neil's DEI underlings who started game development with his loli lesbian last of us
Nah, Cuckman burns through them too. He did that a lot by essentially showing them a decent amount of guro and other fucked up shit on TLOU2. Then he hurled abuse at them and forced them to work bullshit hours until they dropped or quit.
It's sort of how he burned the company he backstabbed his way into power down. It's also why it's basically dead and can only crank out art or skins; since graphics artists can be shopped to find the ones who like that sort of fetish, or at least swallow it down for the pay.
This also why ND is a leak machine, because fuck working for a guy like Cuckman.
You know what's sad about the spoilers? It's actually a cool concept that could theoretically work. A sci fi horror story inspired by apocalypse now with gene altered insane humans. I like the ideas, and if you cut out or actually make the religion realistic (communism or halo styled Arabic fanatics) I could see it working with a conventional protagonist.
Unfortunately druckman is making it so it's going to be dogshit, but even cutting that out the advertising for this is terrible. Why the 80s theme? Why lie about the tone so badly? It's a horror game, just embrace that instead of trying to piss off your "fan base" even more by lying and saying it's an 80s throwback action game. The anime in the trailer is so cynical it's unreal.
The base concept can work. A hardboiled bounty hunter getting stranded on a planet to survive against degenerated human colonists who formed a millenarian death cult about the Great Return is a solid concept. It has its roots in games like Metroid in that regard, as well as a bit of BioShock or Outlast.
But yeah, this is a Cuckman production with a dead company. Cuckman alone ruined both Uncharted and TLOU since he's a garbage writer and absolute cunt of a human who doesn't understand story telling. It's just going to be recycled and clunky as shit mixes between TLOU and Uncharted. I wouldn't be shocked if the code legit is a frankenstein's monster mesh between the two to get the stuff set up.
He's not even that, The First Last of Us game was directed by his predecessors Amy Hennig, and Waylon Brinck.
The first game Druckman was executive director/Game Director for was the "smash hit" The Last of Us Part II.
He also was why the last Uncharted game with that bitch who one ups you so often was so bad too. This would actually be the first time this backstabbing shitstain made something with no interference, and it's going to be trash.
He is also going to lie like fuck about the game, and I have no pity for anyone dumb enough to fall for him.
