Didn't he kill his own franchise because of this? Like people went from loving the last of us to thinking it was shit because of how bad the second games story was

You know what? In the context of the crap /v/ likes, when I look at the catalogue and it's pretty much just shitty open world console rpgs, if we look at it from that perspective was this guy even wrong? He's just telling a herd of pigs that don't even like video games to consume slightly different slop.

The plot of TLOU2 is actually completely fine, it's just the marketing of the game and the way the twist was revealed which caused the problem, combined with chud rage from there being a strong female character

I don't have a problem with the "twist" at the beginning of the game that everyone is complaining about, I just can't play this game for more than 5 hours before I get bored out of my mind even though I 100%-ed the original game. In the first game the characters felt like real characters I got to know and cared about and wanted to see what happens next. Here I couldn't even give a fuck what happens next, because I never cared about these characters. I tried to get into 2 two different times and nope. It's just bad.

>AAA Video game creator makes art instead by the numbers forgettable slop for once
Gamers
>NO YOU CAN'T DO THAT I'LL KILL YOU!

Gamers were a mistake.

>>724709338
The first game was shit as well. The AI got to be so laughably bad that it was ruining the story mode. The only good thing was Factions multiplayer, but no, Neil didn't want to continue supporting that, the blatant post apocalypse movie slop had to continue.

you failed to write a revenge story, drucc man, the most basic boilerplate narrative possible. you need to have ellie get her revenge and then deal with the consequences. no one gives a fuck about abby or evil scientist man. all you did was reveal definitively that bruce straley is responsible for everything anyone likes about the first game.
and you ousted him, drucc man. you ousted him and hennig, and now you run an empire of dirt. what were the consequences of your revenge against people who dared to be smarter and more talented than you?

I won. The game is exactly the way I want it to be, and I did it specifically to spite you. No amount of whining will undo my total victory over you.

The plot was actually not completely fine.
The first half was fine

The second half was so ham fisted its not even funny "see don't you feel bad for killing that person, can't you see you're the real monster". There is no subtlety it just tries to cram it down your throat. And the big humanizing moment for Abby is supposed to be her caring for a girl that feels like a boy so she cut her hair? The tranny and her sister have no characterization, there is no reason to like them. The only reason you're supposed to care about her is if you already bought into the ideology.

Honestly the game feels like they gave up on their vision half way through. The beginning of that game is actually really good. The gameplay is really fun. The environments are interesting and the game encourages you to explore, but as it goes on it gets more and more narrow, until it turns into what feels like running down a narrow corridor from cutscene to cutscene.

Uncharted 4 DLC was kinda foreshadowing of how TLOU2 was gonna turn out. Charisma of U4 characters is completely gone; Nadine is still a massive asshole without any redeeming qualities (which kinda worked in U4 itself when she was a hechman type character), Sam is now completely bitchmade, getting bossed around by a girl, and Chloe is just too boring. U4 did so many things right, but no matter how good these games are, narratively-driven games like this don't work well without good narration, and that's exactly why TLOU2 feels like ass cancer even though it does everything else right
it really sucks because sometimes I feel like we're never going to get an adventure game like Uncharted 4 ever again.

The Last of Us 2 died because gamers are anti-Semitic and refuse to play a game made by an Israeli Jewish man. Shame on you all.

>>724710589
Yes, it's clearly because of a vast right-wing Christian nationalist conspiracy to marginalize Jewish voices in media and not because a gynocentric revenge fantasy that doesn't even deliver on the revenge doesn't appeal to people that play video games.

Or, as I like to call them, the customer.

Why did this comment mindbreak /v/? It's perfectly reasonable

He's a miserable, failed, writer. Fuck him.

>>724711317
The only one that was good in terms of gameplay was Tflop2. The story was horrific.

Fun fact: "They" hate the game industry because it wasn't their byproduct like the Hollywood and Theater industry was. The rise of gaming made them afraid because it was founded by white christians who didn't think twice about the implications of what they were proliferating.
