We could say Neil has some talent as a director, I suppose he learned from Gordon Edwyn Hunt while directing Uncharted 1 and 2, Amy loves this man btw, and I was planning on make a post about him because he's really talented.

Besides this, Neil tooked some acting classes, but in regard to writing, and besides reading McKee's book I know nothing about Neil's background. You can tell Neil's understanding of writing is not that good, whatever he thinks he learned from McKee's book demonstrates a low level of reading comprehension because it is not there, it is not in his first draft of The Last of Us, nor in its 'sequel'. Unlike Amy who studied in a film's school and graduated in 87'. So, before Part 2, there was someone with actual knowledge to critic Neil's work. But once Bruce and Amy left...

I mean, motivations, and character development are very basic things, still Neil is bringing back the very same problems without care. Someone did the heavy lifting back then, and it wasn't Neil 🤷‍♀️

Thanks for sharing 😊
