    They are going after things on the game that are false. The sjw hate is real, your fellow KZreadrs have said it was forced, bad etc. And they hate it because you do play as a different hero. It never said on the tin that it was a game you play as person x.... Hell all the marketing showed clearly what was going to happen. They are right about 1 thing... The story.. The writing is new star wars movie bad. But all the trolls and bigots who gave it a 1 are wrong. But so are the 10 out of 10 critics. Game wise it's a 9 for sure. Story wise a 5. So let's call it a weak 7 or a strong 6 out of 10.

    At the end of the day, this game was just a miserable experience. The original game was very dark and depressing but it still had plenty of sweet, heartwarming moments and the development of a beautiful father-daughter relationship between a man who lost everything and a teenage girl who gave him hope again. There always was a glimmer of light in the darkness that was the original Last of Us. The sequel is nothing but heartbreak, loss, and despair. I know that was the point, but it doesn't make it good.

I don't really see the point of playing a video game that purposely makes you feel like a bad person for playing it. It's pretty manipulative.

It made sense for Ellie to grow, as we were pretty aware we'll be in control of her, for the most part in a TLoU sequel, that was never the problem. Even Ellie finding out about what really happened in the hospital and being mad at him, all story beats that make sense, he's not a saint we all understand what he did was morally wrong, but there's a reason people say that he was treated very disrespectfully, he died like a fukcing clicker you stab in a basement trying to beat a level. And on top of that, you get 10 hours of gameplay as the woman who killed him. It was such a mess of wrong decision after wrong decision.

What I can't understand though are the people telling Naughty Dog that they should have catered to any one group of people when making their game.

If I happened to make a critically acclaimed story and had to face the challenge of writing a sequel to it I would be absolutely terrified. But them constantly stating in retrospect that it will divide people and they need to be open minded completely indicates to me that they themselves were not secure in what they produced.

The difference is that in the first game it was executed better. Joel's death as I mentioned earlier is not an issue, how he died is. The disconnection is poor writing, not the concept of what they wanted to do. When you outline a story and say, "How do we get this character where he needs to be to kill him off?" you have to consider what kind of death you want that character to have. If you have to compromise a character's previously established qualities to make them do something to fit the story, you have failed.

    The biggest problem was that it took 7 years of development, which apparently was enough time for them to overthink the story and fate of the characters for the second installment rather than just making a simple sequel game.

    But the world of The Last of Us has never been about 'heroes and villains' the world is about anti-heroes and morality. To me it is very reminiscent of Neo-Westerns like 'Hell or High Water' and 'No Country for Old Men' TLOU2 takes tropes from the genre and implements them into the game. For example the 'Kick the Dog' trope which is seen in westerns in order for the audience to distinguish the villain. They did this in RDR2 with Micah and Cain (Jack Marston's dog) which Micah abuses and literally kicks. This is meant to foreshadow that Micah was a villain. In Neo-Westerns this trope is meant to demonstrate that someone is an anti-hero whos morals are grey. I actually enjoyed Abby as a character too but not at the start. I think when Lev and Yara were introduced I began to get more interested in her story. I agree that there is stuff wrong with the game and genuine criticisms such as the pacing of the story, etc. But you cannot deny that there is also a shit load of people hating on it because there are LGBT characters in the game. I read a shit tone of reviews on meta critic and a lot of them called the game SJW garbage for doing that.

She can literally take on 30 armed men and win easily, yet they send an army to take over a town when she could easily have done it alone, as she proves time and again throughout the game. Her motive is an insatiable need to revenge kill the She Hulk who killed the beloved character from the first game who for some reason is a fucking idiot in this game, insta trusting strangers, giving his name with no skepticism at all. When she finally gets the chance to kill her mortal enemy, she doesnt, then years later ruins her good life to go after Hulk again, only to let her live, so she can go back to see she lost everything with no gain. 10/10

If they wanted to make Abby the good guy they wouldn’t have made her a ruthless killer. When Yara calls Abby a good person, that’s not the game telling you, it’s just Yara telling you because the only context Yara had of Abby was her saving people. The point is that both Abby and Ellie become awful people, yet both still have a glimmer of hope inside of them.

    So in Troy bakers mindset (A VOICE ACTOR) if you spend a long time making something that means it's good. Also the first game was not divisive at all it was literally universally praised. The game does not do any character development for the new characters Dina's whole character is that she is a lesbian and so is Ellies everyone is kinda just there to serve a purpose but not there to be people. The 2 Asian characters are the only people that feel like actual characters but we don't really know much about their story it's like we only saw the climax.

    I just replayed the first game to prepare for the show... And it's still such a fantastic experience. The entire runtime of the game built up the relationship between Joel and Ellie. There is so much potential for a tense follow up story between these 2. But instead of building off of that, Joel dies a dog's death immediately, Ellie is suddenly in a love triangle with no buildup, and Abby is thrusted on the player and the game does manipulative tactics to sympathize with her after killing Joel. Going in this direction is brave in a sense, but incredibly stupid. I see what they were trying to do but it ultimately fell flat. You don't create a sequel with the intention to alienate a part of your fanbase.

    Yeah, I think that if they wanted to have Joel die and then have a revenge story arc they could've made a story to make that work but they didn't handle it the right way. Abby just being generally unlikable and then having you play 1/2 the game as her was probably the biggest misstep. Joel's death just felt "unearned" in a lot of ways. Not to mention that the circumstance was dumb, a seasoned survivor like him giving out his name to a bunch of strangers when he knows he has tons of enemies that want him dead just didn't make sense.

    ​@@Lord_Numpty Spec Ops had a beautifully paced very cohesive story with good characters and clear motivations. I wouldn't call that game fun. However, for people who like storytelling games it's imo a must play. Based on Heart of Darkness and perfectly executed. It really captures the theme of the book. In fact another game (which still is one of my personal favourites) is the "love it or hate it" Far Cry 2. Also based on Heart Of Darkness. Way less heavy on story. It's there and imo it works perfectly. A simple modern story of a mercenary hired to kill an armsdealer who is supplying bot sides of a conflict. You realize throughout the game you've more in common with him than you thought at first. The strength of that game isn't necessarily the story itself but the actions you do and how spontaneous it brings over its theme. Sneak up on a camp and shoot someone in the chest only to hear him moan of pain while one of his comrades is trying to comfort him. Weapons breaking down in the middle of a fight (like the sandstorm moments in Spec Ops meant to convey a a harsh conditions). Having buddies who can die trying to help you (even putting a bullet in them yourself to relieve them from their pain). Healing animations that are extremely graphic (same as some of the graphic wounds you can cause on enemies in Spec Ops),... Unfortunately the rest of the Far Cry series went way more in your face with its story and left out a lot of that narrative depth (through actions) in its world. Too on the nose and since they are open world games, suffer too much from inconsistent pacing. As for The Last Of Us games. I can't really say much about it, since I've never played either of them. But the thing is with these types of games you can do 2 things. Either go the route of Spec Ops in a linear game and make sure the characters, the story and the pacing are perfect. Or in the case of an open world game make something where your actions tell a story and convey a theme. Pacing is going to be an issue anyway. So make the player feel lik they are the character who is making certain decissions. Now that last one can't be done in The Last Of Us obviously. But in that case plot holes, mismatching motivations etc. are going to make people upset. I feel like that has happened here. Direct sequels with these types of games are really dangerous to keep narrative consistency.

If a game is compelling you to continue (whether it's the story, difficulty,...) then it doesn't necessarily needs to be fun. "Fun" is kind of a vague word tbh. Do movies, music and books also need to be fun to be compelling? At that point we would lose a lot of possibilities in terms storrytelling, interaction possibilities, etc. The fact that games can amplify an emotional experience (thanks to the level of interaction) is what makes this medium so powerful. We wouldn't have great games like "This War Of Mine", "Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons", "Spec Ops The Line", "Papers Please" and many others. Unique experiences that are compelling but not necessarily fun in a traditional way.

If they wanted to make a successful story about “revenge not being the answer”, they should’ve saved this story for a third installment and have this game focus on Abby instead, before and after her motivating incident. That way, it would’ve given players more time to warm up and get used to Abby and her crew, so when in comes the revenge story, a more grey first impression of who’s right and who’s wrong would take place, since we’d have spent a better amount of time between the two sides of the story. This probably would’ve resulted in a better debate than the one-sided toxicity we have today. BUT, hate sells more, amirite?

    Just pick up a better game. I don't know play Pokémon or something? I mean nobody gets mad playing Pokémon right? *remembers Whitney* On second thought just play Persona. 2-5 will wash that taste out of your mouth pretty quick, considering they take months to beat. Hell, if you just play 10 hours a week those games will last you roughly 3/4 of the year.

    One of the major weaknesses Naughty Dog has had for a while is their repeated and senseless attempts to make the point that killing and violence is bad. In games where 90% of the gameplay is basically mass slaughter..... I genuinely don't understand why they're incapable of realizing that this doesn't work.

    GOffensive games are not books. The interactive part of the game is storytelling as well. So if your core gameplay loop is all about murdering people, having your main character spare someone feels contradictory. This is like me trying to convince you that cars are evil, by showing you how great people get from place to place with them and driving you around all day. The action goes against the core message. Now, if you wanted to make a point about how violence and revenge is bad, there are ways to do that in a game. Punish the player for killing. Make the game harder if you have a body trail or something. While I haven’t played it, one of the MetalGear games has a clever way to portraying an anti violence message. During one segment you wander through a dream state, where everyone you killed attacks you. Meaning that you have an a lot easier time, if you try to avoid killing and go the stealth route. Or the game undertale. Where interactions with NPCs become a lot more hostile and unfriendly if you kill a lot. If you can’t grasp this basic idea you are probably incapable of understanding the self contradictory story or the complaint that the other guy said

    rather than playing as Abby , I would rather playing as Tommy for some part of the game . I mean revenge have to be solved with another revenge but ten fold right ? The answer have to be if you kill them all there will be no one left to take a revenge on you.
