April 29, 20205 yr I saw the Last of Us leaks and it's grotesque. Lesbian/transgender characters inserted for no good reason, and character destroying turns that seem to be inserted mainly for shock effect and in service of a general, moralistic theme that is out of place in a violent story/game. Game of Thrones had some similar shock antics employed in its final act and it upset the fans and I think The Last of Us 2 will upset its fans too. I think this creative choice is very misguided. The final act in a story is no place to destroy characters for some temporary shock antics or to suddenly insert some sort of out of place moral message- it's a time to finalize things in a deeply satisfying, coherent way that ties things from the middle and early acts. It could turn out well or bittersweet. Who cares if real life doesn't turn out like this? This is storytelling, it's fiction. As Batman says "people deserve to have their faith rewarded".

Politics has crept into everything. What's meant to be escapes like video games, movies, TV shows, etc have been infested with identity politics that lecture people instead of creating a good story with good characters.

Some companies/directors are doing it, others are not. The story and gameplay looks decent what what I've so far but a classic, mainstream game like should not pander to this extent to a niche audience of homosexuals, transgender, and SJW's. Literally the game is made for lesbians and transgender people.
April 30, 20205 yr What the leaks show is that they destroyed the main characters of Last of Us- a father and daughter adventure- by making the girl into a lesbian tomboy murderer with a lesbian romance (her partner is pregnant with a baby from an effete, homosexual asian person they used as sperm donor), the father-the protoganist of the first game- into a mcguffin/secondary character, and introduced a new transgender storyline. So the transgender was not just a side character, but a central part of the game. You play as the lesbian or the transgender. I don't think I'm spoiling anything here as when the game is released, these basic details will be in the trailers. This type of storyline only makes sense if they're selling the game mainly to lesbians, gays, and trannies. .

Of course, but if the media and people agree or disagree with the message/product it becomes politicized on both sides of the spectrum with social media amplifying tenfold. 10 minutes ago, Cult Icon said: I don't think I'm spoiling anything here as when the game is released, these basic details will be in the trailers.

The company Naughty Dog I believe is the name, are striking back against the leaks and people that discuss them on YouTube. I think the head guy at the company had conscience crisis and sought out Anita Sarkisian to become a better white male, not joking either.
April 30, 20205 yr Transgender Abby's model in the game- she is a crossfit girl, clearly a steroid user. Colleen Fotsch: https://www.instagram.com/colleenfotsch/?hl=en
April 30, 20205 yr Well, it's just the vicious circle all over again, it's been trending for a while now. The fastest way to break (and FUBAR) a franchise.

Apparently she had direct involvement, and in any case, she has indirect involvement in all the recent crap in video games: she's been bullying and intimidating brands/companies for years. If you don't get on Anita's good side, she will go after you in the media and she will try to tear you down... She's a full-fledged totalitarian activist.
April 30, 20205 yr This reminds me of a discussion I had with one of my ex-gf. I don't agree with all he says (and it's very much from an English perspective), but it's interesting.

Fuck that moral authoritarian........................ it's a cult like the climate change zealots! Meaning it's their way of seizing power by any means necessary.

How exactly it reminds you of your ex? ...........You also didn't agree with all your ex-gf had to say?...... and that's why she's now your ex-gf instead of your gf?

Nah We used to talk about the press and its subjectivity and I've always thought that the less trustworthy sources are the ones that hide their subjectivity. What do you think about it? Also, discussing with people who can civilly disagree with you is the most precious gift So, I wouldn't use it as a break-up reason.

May 1, 20205 yr @Cult Icon @Enrico_sw The Naughty Dog guy's name is Neil Druckmann that I was referring to in my previous post.
May 1, 20205 yr omg + so there is also transsexual romance/sexual material in the Abby story-line- clearly the director wanted to break new ground!!
