The Last Of Us 2 - now with protagonist-murdering trannies

[wahrk]

But she ISN'T trans? Also, where the fuck do you get testosterone in a zombie postapo wasteland?

You're worried about realism in a game about a zombie apocalypse?

You mean a game where the developers spent countless hours studying real life gore and brutality so they could realistically model it in-game?

For people that have watched extended gameplay... is there even infected left?

Fuck off, Pete.

There's a misunderstanding that being sci-fi means it doesn't have to be grounded. Sci-fi is merely the improbable made possible with a good explanation as to why it's possible.
A parasitic fungus that controls the mind of those that it infects isn't impossible, there are real world examples of such.

I suppose there is one thing to say for cuckmann or whoever is directing this project. The depiction of the tranny character is very brave indeed, but not for the reasons that would normally get celebrations in the shitlib crowd. The depiction is brave precisely because its a depiction of a trans character who actually looks like most trannies look like - and that is INFURIATING to trannies and triggering to shitlibs. Trannies always depict themselves as way more feminine than they actually appear IRL (of course), and hate being reminded that most of them look like men with wigs and gyno. The safe and predictable move for a tranny character wouldve been to make a female model, with a female voice actor, and just have it have a bunch of filler dialogue about wrongbodywrongbrain and its an oversized clitoris dad! etc.

This Abby character is not trans surprisingly. Its her sidekick asian boy who is. She is just a strong woman

True bravery is making ugly women in video games.

Not even joking, this is just what they believe.

 

[GhostCow]

Somewhat inaccurate. Cuckmann only did the dlc for TLOU

 

[Melcar]

Holy shit. Just holy fucking shit.

Agreed, people who sprout such tired criticism often can't differentiate fantasy from sci-fi

Y

This Abby character

I'm offended her side doesn't include Legacy of Kain

 

[Lyric Suite]

kept schnooze

Made it bigger.

More like they made the face smaller and the features less Greek-Semitic, so the nose stands out more as it doesn't feel like it's actually part of the face. They basically managed to make the character uglier than the original model and the original model wasn't that great to look at to begin with. Amazing.

I don't see why she doesn't sprout wings and fry Joel with fire breath. You aren't worried about realism in a game about a zombie apocalypse, are you?

 

[Lyric Suite]

That's funny isn't there a passage in the Torah that says homos like Cuckman should be put to death?

This same thing happened in Mortal Kombat 11. The women have faces that are made uglier or masculine while their face models actually once resembled someone that looked feminine and decent.

Like some shit you'd have break out of the mirror world to try and kill you after you lit a few candles to play Bloody Mary.

 

[PulsatingBrain]

being based in reality to some degree is an important part of sci-fi

This is inaccurate, but as far as the setting of this particular game, I agree.

There's a misunderstanding that being sci-fi means it doesn't have to be grounded. Sci-fi is merely the improbable made possible with a good explanation as to why it's possible.

Where are you pulling this from? Have you ever read an Iain M. Banks novel? Zombie apocolypse stuff is generally about a somewhat realistic reaction to a zombie outbreak, but sci-fi as a whole genre can be just as fucking loony as the fantasy genre.

Skarlet is pretty hot tho (When you give her a proper costume)

For people that have watched extended gameplay... is there even infected left?

Within the first two hours of the game Ellie and her gf are talking about how many zombies wer the most each encountered at once, Ellie remarks that a year or so ago they found 12 at the same time while on patrol with Joel. They find like 20 five minutes later. You can find a moose torn to pieces and later on a zombie chomping on one of its legs in there.
Nevermind that you kill way more in the first game, there doesn't seem to be that many infected around. The problem is that there straight up shouldn't be any, or if they were they should be severely malnourished. How did 20 crazy, screaming people take down a whole moose by themselves? Those things can shrug off fucking car crashes. There are a couple that are straight up just waiting in the snow for people and serve as jumpscares when they should be either dead or have several problems running, but no, they're just fine.

Tldr the numbers are fine for how long it has been after the outbreak and how many people there are out there, but they portray them as having both super strenght and being really durable when they should be just sick people after a couple of days of being infected and running around the snow.

Didn't they have to change her face because a lot of people complained?

 

[Terenty]

This is the whole story



Theres a whole subplot about this trans boy Lev and his hard life as a discriminated minority in a zombi apocalypse

 

[Grimlorn]

Are we being mass-gaslit or what? This chick is clearly taking massive doses of testosterone, that's the only way a woman can get muscles and a body shape like that.

But she ISN'T trans? Also, where the fuck do you get testosterone in a zombie postapo wasteland?

I think what they're trying to do is have you play as a trans character unknowingly and sympathize with "her" and feel sorry for "her" and then they'll tell everyone later that Abby was a tranny all along to blow people's minds. It's a way to manipulate the audience into accepting trannies.

 

[Generic-Giant-Spider]

I don't think they did. I know some fans made some edited versions that gave her less manjaw and she looked really good. But we can't have that in 2020. MALE GAZE.

 

[Silverfish]

The boss arena is lifted straight from the Rom fight in Bloodborne. Sad!

As you once did for the vacuous Abby, grant us eyes, grant us eyes. Plant eyes on our brains, to cleanse our beastly privilege.

Fresh infected? I thought the infected eventually succumbed and evolved (or devolved depending on how you see it), or lost all senses and become a literal plants... just strange having fresh ones running about still.

The fresh infected (meaning the ones that don't have that many visible fungi growing in them yet) can go up to a few months before developing into clickers iirc, could be wrong tho. Considering that they're running around the snow with little regard for their well being attacking anything that moves, and that snowstorms seem to be common place, I'd give them one day at most before they succumbed to the cold were they real people.
So unless they JUST got infected right as you find them (which I doubt, seeing as there were a few clickers with them) it still wouldn't make a lot of sense

I see. In the first game it was kinda logical why you found the infected at different places, some dank cellar death trap for scavengers, or just some wanderers getting attacked, I mean there was always some kind of story explaining why and how. Just got the impression there might not be much of a focus on that part in the sequel. Shame.

They seem to just be going for the rule of cool with this one. I'd always thought that the part you mentioned before (them eventually transforming into fertile ground for the fungus) only happened once they'd died, but there's a few infected in this game that are just attached to the wall waiting for people to pass by, which seems really odd considering that the last phase was the bloated in the previous game. Are the infected aware enough to "hibernate" depending on how much available food there is in their surroundings? How do they know it? How do they catch any type of animal if they're screaming from the top of their lungs as soon as they see one? Why do they care about hunger at all if they don't seem to care about physical harm?
Maybe they do answer these in the game. But as far as I've seen they seem a lot more interested in teaching you about jewish culture rather than the infected.
