It's like Druckman wanted to fail miserably and make all fans of this game hate him on purpose.
Based Reminder that Druckmann is still seething internally that he couldn't beat Rockstar

Joel wasn't ever memorable. He was a vessel for a a plot. The only memorable thing he did was rescue Ellie, which was the wrong choice, and he suffered the consequences of this exact action

None of the Clint's western characters ever talked that much or were as of a simpleton as Arthur was.
Owen Clark
no

fuck off cuckmann

In what way? Beyond being cowboys, nothing Clint has ever done is similar in character or plot.
Brandon Martin

Are you retarded?

>Abby goes after revenge, gets it >spares ellie's life >Ellie goes on her own path of revenge, kills every person in her way >spares nobody >Abby gets revenge on her friends by killing jesse and..wait yeah just jesse >spares ellie's life AGAIN >Ellie heads off again to kill abby >finally spares her only for it to be unrewarding Never gave a shit about Joel, it was just a situation most men can emphasize with. But Everyones a brutal murderer in this world I dont know why people are picking teams. The abby bitch was a blood thirsty Scar murderer, but she redeems herself by helping those kids, sacraficing her entire WLF colony in the process.

The cure wasn't guaranteed to work dumbass, druckman reconned this in part 2 stop talking for Jewish tricks retard

>Literally prevents the world from being rebuild in time It's quite clear the world is just fucked and no vaccine will fix human nature, they'll still be fuckwits trying to kill one another
both the right and left are equally fucking stupid, what a stupid fucking political system where you're forced to vote for the lesser of the two evils.
just pick between forced diversity and political correctness to the point of absurdity or censorship in vidya/banning games because it goes against family values.

>doctor murder dozens of children and makes literally zero progress towards curing a fucking parasitic fungal infection >and even if killing Ellie would have led to a cure, the Fireflies are incompetent anarchist shitbags that actively work against the stabilization of society so they would have either kept the cure for themselves in order to consolidate their own power or -more likely- would have fucked it all up somehow and lost the cure so that nobody could benefit
It's not bait, you're just retarded.

If I were to write TLOU2 I would make Ellie the one who kills Joel

You're lucky Asura was around in 2012 user.

your entire country is a laughing stock right now, so I have no idea where you get the idea that the right side is better. At least the US was respected with your last president, now it's just a circus on fire.
Jose Reed
I don't even give a shit about a cure. The simple fact is Marlene entered into a contract with Joel to transport Ellie for a sum agreed upon by both parties. He delivered her, but the Fireflies violated the NAP when they refused to pay him for crossing the whole damn country with Ellie. Their lives were forfeit in return and Joel was simply reclaiming merchandise that was rightfully his.
Thanks for admitting you're just another foreign retard that feels compelled to yap about something he doesn't understand.
Joseph Ross
>Hey dude just give me your pseudo-daughter to cut open >Yea I've killed a bunch of other kids with no results, but it'll work this time I swear, I promise a breakthrough will happen this time. Imagine thinking Joel was wrong for icing that fucker.
Fuck you. Humanity is fucked and perhaps doubly so because of Joel's selfish choice in the first game. I enjoy seeing you faggots seethe over bad things happening to bad people.

You missed the point of Joel's character if you ever thought he cared about a cure. If that cure was 100% guaranteed he would do the exact same thing. He wasn't leaving without Ellie no matter what.
Jaxson Parker
>If that cure was 100% guaranteed he would do the exact same thing. If. But it wasn't, and in the context presented he was fully justified in doing what he may or may not have wanted to do anyway.
