This "Jaw Drop" moment sounds like Druckmann's rejected Tess revenge story pitch in the first game. Or even worse, Joel is a pedo or a baby murderer, because of Troy Baker's comments about how Joel and David are not that different.

I guarantee you that the "jaw drop" moment that got cut from the game was Ellie getting raped by David or another marauder or something, as Cuckmann himself did say that the HBO show would focus on "rape culture".

Love how Druckmann is taking Amy Hennings work on TLOU1 and just is really finally able to shape it to his "vision" . Parasite

The quote by JRR Tolkien or whoever it was, something about evil cannot create, only corrupt.

He's yet to be proven wrong.

Not only that but having a weak entry for part 2 is a tradition for many games.

That's gotta be the most retarded thing I've ever seen you post, and that's saying a lot considering.

But it doesn't stop it from being true.

Just like Valve being unable to count to three.

I'm surprised it took almost as long as a decade for the Last of Us franchise to go to shit. We went from a game that managed to do incredibly well for itself by tapping into the waning zombie craze and now it's a woke pile of shit. Nice job Cuckman.

I can't really call TLOU2 woke, it mostly just comes off as weird story turns rather than actual propaganda or something with a message.

The real issue I had with it was that the game had very small levels still. Naughty Dog needs to break away from having these small in scope games and expand outwards. Other Sony studios have made massive strides in these areas with fixing or improving what their past games were unable to do. But the enemy AI was not improved by much and many things just boiled down to not being impressive enough or a significant enough change from the first game. Especially given the large amount of development time and you're having other first party IPs now make larger progress in a shorter amount of time in terms of breaking through the mainstream.

Even studios like Team Asobi have been hiring more manpower for multiple projects and Naughty Dog is now handing off work to other studios for an Uncharted Reboot and all they themselves have is the multiplayer shooter and just an announcement that TLOU3 is happening sometime this decade. We have more footage from Insomniacs two projects of Spiderman 2 and Wolverine than we have of the TLOU shooter and TLOU3.

I have seen woke, I have writhed in the pits with it, I have broken pizza rolls with wokeness itself.

TLOU 2 is not woke, it lacks the same type of asspulls, the moral monologues, the surface deep yet constant messaging. It just simply is not there. Any type of wokeness claims remind me of Legend of Kora, it's a fucking band-aid they applied after it was all over to make their ill-fated ride seem deeper than it was. TLOU2 is just good old fashioned bad writing and bad pacing in a medium where writing matters the absolute least.

Its not for lack of trying on Cuckman's part. Its just his writing is so incompetent, that when he's trying to be woke, you focus on how much the writing sucks. "Bigot sandwiches", for example. Or the trans Asian.

Diversity has long been used in pretty much everything that I don't really consider it part of that. Animorphs was very diverse for example, it's whole entire cast of main characters is from diverse backgrounds and that is a decades old YA series.

All that trans characters are is just that, but brought up to modern trends. At this point sexuality/gender is heavily commercialized and they seem almost inseparable from specialized products from a marketing standpoint, that it makes perfect sense on why these characters would appear.

Pretty much all modern day diversity pushes are the result of wokeness. I don't even have to explain this. Its so self-evident even a moron like you should be able to see it. For someone who supposedly has been wallowing in wokeness, you have a hard time noticing it when it staring you in the face.

Animorphs was very diverse for example, it's whole entire cast of main characters is from diverse backgrounds and that is a decades old YA series.

First of all, Animorphs far predates the rise of the modern woke plague. Second of all, are you really going to compare Animorphs to fucking "bigot sandwiches"?

All that trans characters are is just that, but brought up to modern trends.

Nope, not even fucking close. Having a trans Asian girl in a post-apocalyptic setting, who is specifically running away from a religious cult with obvious Christian undertones isn't like Animorphs, which was damn subtle in comparison. Its so on the nose, you would literally have to be braindead to not see it.

Commercialization doesn't make something any less woke. Wokeness itself has been commercialized.

 

[Optimus Prime]

Not really.

The Trans kid that's Abby's version of Ellie? As I recall, the whole point of her going trans was to try and escape her settlement's forced marriage policy...but to that end she didn't have to go full trans. It's literally just the same plot point as what happens in Mulan with the titular character pretending to be a man to join the army in her father's place.

However, the way TLOU2 does it, it's literally an excuse to shove in a Trans character since said character no longer is with those people by the time the story starts, so there's literally no reason for the character to keep pretending to be a boy. They could just go back to being a girl and nobody would care. Even if they're still boyish in their interests, that's why the concept of a 'tomboy' exists.

And let's not forget that bookstore shown with the Trans flags proudly waving and not showing much, if any, signs of decay. Decades after the fall of civilization. Who the actual fuck is risking life and limb to clean and wash a bunch of flags when society itself barely even exists? As presented, they don't fit with the game itself, except for the sole purpose of being shoved in the player's face when they walk past that building.

Additionally, how would there be Trans people around when society has essentially not existed for a generation? Quite frankly thinking you're the opposite gender is going to not rank anywhere near the top thousand things that people would be concerned about in a world where your food supply is always in question and you're just as much at risk getting killed by other humans as you are by plant zombies.

Ok so we seem to be arguing the same things.

I stated that Wokeness is pretty much commercialized just like anything else. That's why I said it makes sense that it gets heavily featured in products. Diversity in media does predate this by more than a couple decades but it was done so for much the same reasons. So they could have a property where every demographic could be targeted. That's why throughout the 80's and 90's many shows targeting kids and teens had a multi-ethnic force for the good guys.

The only real difference with wokeness is excessively bad writing that wades into after school special grade tier that on top of that tries to be edgy or cynical in order to appeal to modern audiences. But that's generally separate from any political ideology and is more or less on the writer's lack of skill. You could take any modern woke media and compare it to the likes of any anti-drug or stranger danger media for example from decades past and beat for beat it's the same. You could probably go back and watch media like Mazes and Monsters made around the time of the satanic panic and well, it's honestly no different either(and the catalyst for causing it turned out to be false as well).

There's more and more damage control going out, with the HBO show coming out next week:



And Soy Baker is also helping out with that too:



Soy Baker even goes all-in on dicksucking Pedro Pascal, saying that he would change his original performance because of Pedro's portrayal.



Director Craig Mazin also explained the decision to cast Bella Ramsey as Ellie:

Druckmann is once again shit-talking anyone who didn’t like the game.

The gif is another one of those “lol we remade a meme with out characters, aren’t we quirky?”, but it’s actually pretty horrifying to see in motion.

The momemt "I CRIED!" appears in any media shilling circus I know it's horseshit. Did they also get Kevin Smith to be one of the snot noses? Also sounds like Cuckman just wants to do a David Cage game with that grand description.
