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

If nothing else this game proves you can actually polish a turd to a high sheen.

Already done by The Outer Worlds and many more.

This game is a great Litmus Test for gamejournos. You shill for this game and everyone knows you're just a wannabe corporate tool licking dev assholes for access.

TLOU2 is polarizing, technically good with appalling direction and narrative. TOW is a whole different thing entirely. It's more of a lukewarm enema, tasteless amalgam of nostalgic elements to make as wide audience as possible all cozy inside.

Quote from the review:

I’ve been called a noob. I’ve been called terrible, garbage, trash, and everything under the sun for dying in a video game on stream. But never have I ever had twenty thousand people cheering every time I died, because they hated the character I was playing (Abby) so much that they’d rather see her jump off a ledge over and over than carry on with the game. And I think that says about all you need to know about The Last of Us II.

I only love the guy who doomed the whole humanity to save his daughter figure, a true hero.

Nigga, they can't find cure, they are just performing gender changing surgeries.

Druckmann joined Naughty Dog – the Sony-owned subsidiary that created the Crash Bandicoot games – in 2004 after meeting its co-founder Jason Rubin at an industry conference. Rubin is also Jewish, so perhaps that played a part in his hiring.[1] Rubin has since left the company and Druckmann is now vice president. Yet despite being born in Israel and repeatedly referencing the German National Socialists in his video games, Druckmann has attempted to downplay his ethnicity.

This explains everything.

It takes a certain amount of boldness to ruin a story and a beloved protagonist, I admit. Perhaps people should show more respect. But only if it's done intentionally...

 

[Unkillable Cat]

First 30 seconds ought to cover it.

 

[wahrk]

Saying TLOU2 took “bold story risks” is like saying Tommy Wiseau took bold story risks with The Room... completely meaningless. McDonalds announcing the all new McTurd would be a “bold culinary risk” but that doesn’t mean I want to eat it.

"We intentionally wrote a convoluted and stupid plot that's derivative of decades of mediocre media to subvert your expectations of enjoying the game you thought you were going to enjoy."

I've never seen anyone cut a Madden disc in half.

"Also I should say that for more than 50 percent of the production, Ellie used to kill Abby at the end. Which gave a whole different kind of feel to the ending, and then another character would have to stop the cycle of violence. But at some point, through our conversations about Yara and Lev, we came to the realization that it wasn’t as honest to Ellie’s character that way. Deep down inside there’s goodness there. Hopefully she can go forward and build her life."

It's not "boldness" if it's just another piece of the globo-masterplan.

easy fix: move the encouter with the pregnant woman toward the end, enforce stealth after that up to the last boss fight then anything goes, qte at the end to kill or spare the trannie. exactly same ending for both. circle of violence still broken, main character unretardeded.
i came up with this in 2 seconds, maybe less.

Looks like Fake News to me, no actual Source on Image Search for the second and some 4chan threads for the first.

How can a circle of violence be broken if she literally started another two hundred or so throughout the game?

For once you didn't Do The Research and Lack the Memory. I remember seeing at least one of these ads in a computer mag back then, but have been unable to find a full source on that, despite over an hour of searching.

Meanwhile there is stuff like this newspaper article that sadly lacks a proper date.

And this Wiki article that do their bestest to confirm the story, except... they lack the evidence.

So as far as I'm concerned the ads are real - but at the same time it seems that *some people* have attempted to scrub the internet clean of these ads.

I can't find a single other source especially for the image on the right via reverse image Search than that very Tweet which makes me very skeptical, not very hard for these for instance: https://cnc.fandom.com/wiki/World_Trade_Center

Why paint when you can wipe it out?!

thank you for not having read a single word of what i wrote. but, well, i could have been clearer. "enforce stealth": make ellie drop all the weapons, "no more killing from now, perhaps except for the one who truly earned it, but after that, no more".

The ending would have been 100% better if as Ellie was about to Kill Abby, someone yells out "wait, she's the last of us", and that causes Ellie to not kill her.
