He though The Last of Us 2 was about "revenge bad"

>He though The Last of Us 2 was about "revenge bad"
The reason good writers don't do video games is because you dense brainlets don't have the mental capacity to understand it. Go back to praising 100+ hour RPGs with a million copy pasted side quests and dialogue wheels that make the protagonist a husk cause you wanted to self insert.

It’s almost like the characters are a bunch of flawed human beings trying to find motivation an keep living in an apocalypse.

And beyond that, it’s almost like they want you to have to understand the grief and emotions of the characters without them saying it out loud.

Ok so what was it about genius

TLoU2 as a film would be criticized and considered a weak film.

At least sidequests are unique to videogames.

People are the real monsters

That you think TLOU2 is considered good writing is even worse.

And you go back to movies and take your writers with you. All sides happy.

They just need that last scene to be:

“Hey Joel, I was upset and rude, I’m so sorry. I will remember this conversation because it will help me to understand that I do love you despite all my frustrations because this world is messy and complicated. I will try to come to a place where I have fully forgiven you”

“Thank you Ellie. In that spaceship 3 years ago, when I asked if I had done ok, I was really talking about my efforts as a person and father. If I died tomorrow, this conversation tonight is enough for me to have peace.”

Now that’s good gamer dialogue.

Ellie flashes back to Joel because Abby is basically Joel at this point in her journey to Lev. If Abby dies, Lev is left like Ellie was. This is why Ellie spares her. It’s not deep, it’s not profound, it’s a paint by numbers baby bullshit revenge drama. If they wanted to be really subversive and not cliche they would have let Joel live with what he did (which really wasn’t wrong in the first place) and gave us more of the actual drama we wanted.

Also:

>A pregnant woman goes on fucking combat missions
>Ellie and Dina have no guns on them when Abby attacks the theater
>That guy strangling Dina instead of just shooting her
>Joel and Tommy acting liie fucking idiots

So many of you have attached this game to your personality, like it’s a personal offense when people point out legitimate flaws. Sad.

It juked you that bad eh?

What does this game offer me that I can't experience with a subscription to HBO Max

Yeah, nah, flawed and fucking dumb/contrived are not the same thing. I was screaming out loud at one point when Mel and Owen literally withhold that she was pregnant and Owen goes to attack Ellie at gun blank range. How fucking dumb do you have to be to fall for this and be invested in it?

Unless you explain what it’s “really about” your baseless statement holds no water.

if it's not about REVENGE BAD why didn't she kill Abby in the last fight?

also is there a single REVENGE BAD story that's any good? The only thing I can think of is Afro Samurai and Afro Samurai Resurrection

Let it go, Neil.

I literally understood every single facet of the game, definitely better than you did too, since you’d have a better response than “juked you”. The game was trash story wise.

To be fair the idea of a pregnant woman demanding to go on a combat patrol is unfathomably retarded in any context. You cant even move quickly when you're pregnant. How the fuck are you going to be anything other than a hindrance? It was so obvious what would happen.

Here's your (you)asshole, you can fuck off with your shit bait now.

>Someone points of valid criticism
>HEH NOTHIN PERSSONEL KID

God damn dude shut up. You make the same threads every fucking day.

Your game is shit, and no amount of whining or shilling is going to change that

Well, Joel, I guess we really are the walking dead.

grow up

Have you ever read a fucking book before? There’s nothing profound, deep or original about this game. The writer was so incompetent he decided to change the ending of Abby getting killed by Ellie because he was pressured by his brain dead co-writer

>"So I guess that means we're some kind of... Suicide Squad. Is that it?

You were impressed by that too, I take it.

okay neil

This game wouldn't have caused a fraction of the seethe it did if it didn't have the meme trifecta of gay jewess/stronk womyn/tranny and that's a fact. I genuinely think the story is decent. Still like a 6/10 game.

Druckman is no genuis but he's a more competent writer than 90% of other video game """writers""" in the industry and naughty dog's games prove it. It's not like this is academy award winning writing, but compared to the competition tlou2 is miles ahead of its competition.

People that complain about the writing can't even point to specific criticisms, they just say meme buzz-phrases like "the pacing is bad!" because they watched a video where some zoomer said the pacing was bad, therefore they copy-pasted their opinion and criticism of the game based on it since they have no original thoughts and never actually played the game itself.

You're late for your pegging session with Anita, Mr Druckmann. Come on, you need ample time to prep the enema and lube, godspeed

Honestly I think he could be a great writer if he wasn't such a brainwashed leftist. There's plenty of brilliant moments in the game, but it's overshadowed by forcing dumb progressive shit into it. Abby is unlikeable and hard to sympathize with because of her grotesque appearance. Which is also unrealistic as fuck, it would require a shitton of food and steroids to maintain that body.

Honestly, replace abby with a more charismatic and likeable dude, cut the tranny shit, make the lesbian stuff a bit more subtle and it would be a 10/10 game.
