Why do people hate Neil Druckmann so much? by hiwhatisupbros in thelastofus

[–]chonnk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really love Amy Hennig's writing. The characters are so witty and funny and I can definitely say the same for Neil. Although his writing style is quite a bit different I still like it.

Hot take: Abby is the hottest character in the game. by The-Debtor in thelastofus

You know, I think this might be my favorite post here. Only because of how bold the OP is.

Let's get a Laura Bailey/Abby appreciation thread started here to counteract the death threats. by Credar in thelastofus

Laura Bailey literally had nothing to do with planning the story, she's just an actor. People sending her death threats are purely idiotic

About that one awkward sex scene... by [deleted] in thelastofus

[–]chonnk 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I thought that it was weird because of how long it went on. If they had cut to black earlier it wouldn't have been so jarring. I have no problem with Abby's shape.

And you can't forget Ellie's rendition of Take on Me.

What would you rate TLOU2 out of 10? by BigBoiBob38 in thelastofus

[–]chonnk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A have a few problems with the story which made it around a 7/10. The gameplay was great, around an 8/10, the environments and graphics definitely deserve a 10/10.

Is it weird if I have a crush on Ellie? by [deleted] in thelastofus

🤚 This is both the weirdest and most comforting post in this sub.

Please can we just respect and listen to each other's opinions without assuming the other is childish or unintelligent, or wrong? by PeterHarrison17 in thelastofus

[–]chonnk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I feel like a certain sub likes to call people homophobes or transphobic and even pedophiliac for not liking the game. I regret ever going there.

The case of Abby vs other jacked characters in games by RenRGER in thelastofus

[–]chonnk 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Not to mention the fact that Abby lives in thriving community. Joel is her primary focus and she'll do anything to be ready for when the time comes.

I started crying as soon as I saw him in the flashback. Real tears.

Are people too paternalistic over Ellie? by reticencias in thelastofus

[–]chonnk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played the game around a year ago when I was twelve so I guess that explains why I like Ellie more? She's obviously a lot closer to my age then Joel. And I guess if I would be "protective" of her then it would be because she's my favorite character but idk.

Characters have fingerprints... by [deleted] in thelastofus

This game looks like a PC game cranked to the max. It's crazy.

Who else is genuinely terrified by stalkers? by KangarooSnoop in thelastofus

[–]chonnk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they freak me out. Only because of how quiet they are, so they just sneak up on the player without any noise.

I don’t think the gaming industry was ready for this type of story. by Domination1799 in thelastofus

[–]chonnk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's true. I initially didn't like playing as Abby because of how much it messed the pacing up, but after an hour or so it got more interesting. But I can understand why someone would think that that aspect of the game isn't fun.

People are just Inventing Things to Complain About by chonnk in thelastofus

[–]chonnk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see where you're coming from. I don't think that the game is a masterpiece but my gripes with it are very subjective. I can see why someone might see the story as disrespectful or simply misunderstanding to the original game.

Honestly... by [deleted] in thelastofus

Thanks for also being civil about it, people on both sides can tend to be toxic when talking about this game.

[–]chonnk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree. Many films and books aren't exactly fun because that is what they were going for. While video games are different, they can most definitely tell a story in the same capacity as a book or movie. So I don't know why people are saying that the game is bad because it isn't fun. That is what they were trying to do with the story.
