Yet there are also those developers, some of whom still work at Naughty Dog today, who say that there's a part of them that actually wishes this game would fail. A critical flop might help show Naughty Dog that this isn't the best way to make games, that this level of sacrifice isn't necessary, that maybe the project isn't worth losing all of these people. That perhaps, no matter how many Game of the Year nominations they win or how high their Metacritic scores climb, all the individual hairs on Joel's eyebrows or the grains of sand in a burlap sack just aren't worth the cost.
did jason get a review copy of the game or he's being just salty here?
isn't he joking and saying that peach is being more brutal than TLOU2 here?
Because the only possible explanation is for there to actually be a deep seated hatred and wishing for the game to fail, that's the only reason anyone can ever be critical.Everyone let's use common sense. Why on earth would Schreier be salty about tLoU's reception? Because he wrote an article criticizing Naughty Dog's labor practices? He has been consistent on that topic. I know this thread really doesn't have much to talk about until the game comes out without getting into spoilers and leaks but are we really going to have to nitpick every single tweet by these journalists? We're all better than that.
Yes, you've discovered the secret cabal of hating video games, we now have to eliminate you.Why is Jason and other journalist so salty by the praise is getting the game? Is the new love to hate game? Last year was RDR 2, this year TLoUS2?
Jason doesn't seem very salty to me. He always pokes a little fun at games/devs/reviews/industryWhy is Jason and other journalist so salty by the praise is getting the game? Is the new love to hate game? Last year was RDR 2, this year TLoUS2?
you're either a paid shill by sony to praise the game or someone with a seething hatred of all things popular and must spread the gospel of this games vile narrative, there are no inbetweensBecause the only possible explanation is for there to actually be a deep seated hatred and wishing for the game to fail, that's the only reason anyone can ever be critical.
Honestly a lot of the posts calling Jason a crybaby or salty are absolutely ridiculous and gross. Y'all are supposed to be better than this
I have no problem with Jason, I think he's an amazing journalist, those doom and gloom articles before release just seem a bit bad faith to me in context now, (and I'm sure he was joking in the tweet).Because the only possible explanation is for there to actually be a deep seated hatred and wishing for the game to fail, that's the only reason anyone can ever be critical.

Because you can easily take the time to read the thread and form your own opinion instead of creating a conspiracy to hate AAA games.So instead of trying to explain to me the situation you just mock me because I'm asking a question? This game is making a lot of noise, that is a fact. I don't know if he is joking or not I just wanna know what is happening.
He didn't get a review copy.
He was salty yesterday and answered to Neil he couldn't wait to play the game. That says it all.

Like at some point playing TLOU2 you are going to stab a dog to death and a trophy notification is going to pop up. A game which simulates violence as a core, repeated mechanic can muse a bit on the impact of violence, but ultimately it does ring a little hollow. Making analogies to other media that deal with violence and suffering is tricky because a movie like Schindler's List is inherently anti-violence. All of the action it depicts is sorrowful and pathetic and sad.
Francois Truffaut said, "There's no such thing as an anti-war movie." What he meant is that a war movie can narratively be anti-war, but
probably are too invested, but to be fair after going at Jeff pretty relentlessly yesterday for what was, in my opinion, a clumsy but ultimately harmless tweet, he just seems to have a chip on his shoulder about this game......wat
schrieier is obviously making a silly joke about peach putting luigi in the firendzone.
yall are way too invested.
Spoiled and Survived.In light of the leak & Imran's assertion of spoilers,
How about:
The Last of Us 2 |OT| Spoiled to Hell & Back
He has a second channel with his brother called laymen gaming and they've said some shitty things on itCan someone fill me in on what the deal with skill up is?
I remember ERA kinda discovered him with his GOW review and we all thought he seemed like good people.
Cory interacts a lot with him on twitter
Not me.Spoiled and Survived.
Edit: After reading the last page, yeah you guys are reading too much into Jason's tweet lol. Game's a week away, we're all gonna enjoy it, stay calm.
I got a friend who distributes games locally, if he can't get me a copy in time for release day, I'll go digital and then get a physical copy.
I'll wait lol.I got a friend who distributes games locally, if he can't get me a copy in time for release day, I'll go digital and then get a physical copy.

Only in an Era review thread: people taking a joke that Paper Mario is brutal and emotionally harrowing and reading it as someone being salty over TLoU2's scores.
You guys are wild lol
How about:Do we have an OT title suggestion yet? I was thinking
Last of Us 2 OT | Not Okay.
That's the last thing Ellie says in the original
