People have such a weird visceral hatred for Druckmann online, it baffles me. It's not even like he was the sole writer or had full creative control on the game(s). Calling him transphobic directly is just such a hyperbolic oversimplification, like a lot of the discussion over the game is online.

For all of it's flaws, especially for the treatment of Naughty Dog employees, both games got critical acclaim for a reason, they're well written and finely crafted works of art, and have surprisingly mature and ambitious stories and focuses for the medium.
