That's considered against the ToS. Just go to the TLoU2 board, their reddit board, Twiiter page, etc etc

Nah, they're mad because a certain someone doesn't get a hero's death despite being anything but a hero.

About Joel

In part 1 they made is painfully obvious that Joel isn't a hero or even a good guy. But I guess after playing him for so long the people formed a blind loyalty to him regardless of his actions and choices. So karma catching up to Joel doesn't matter to the audience.

I think for a lot of people, the simple explanation is that their moral code is "save my loved ones, no matter the cost." So they agree with what Joel did on that basis.

This is exactly it. Druckmann had to correct the course after learning the ending of the first game wasn't anywhere near as divisive as he wanted it to be. He didn't like that most people felt Joel did nothing wrong in saving Ellie from being dissected for a cure that wasn't even guaranteed to work.

Either way, gamefly shipped it so I'm still excited to play it for some actual context in-game.

Doesn't change the fact that for years, Joel assisted in the trapping/ambushing of innocent people, took part in killing said people, possibly other things, and then stealing everything they have.

It's more like Abby doesn't have massive honkers and instead has really muscular pecs that you get a good look at in a really gross and awkward sex scene >____>

Yeah, you're weren't supposed to 100% be behind Joel but the audience, like I said, after playing him for a long time they form a blind loyalty to him regardless of his actions.

Don't like the direction the game went? Fine. Don't plan on playing the game? Fine. Review bomb a game you are not going to play because you hate the direction of went? Not fine.

I think many would have supported him seeing the ending without context. It's just their actual world view.

Yep there are some people who hate the ending of the first game and think it ruined the character of Joel even though it actually was built towards.

Angry Joe typically sides with nerd meltdowns I think. Just watch his TLJ related content. And I think he already had a meltdown about the spoilers.

I despise Angry Joe. No thanks. I just think the reaction from his fans would be funny I've likes the game.

Then he'll end up triggering meltdowns in the comments calling him SJW, cuck, or Sony fanboy lol even though he'll likely even it out to a 7 or 8/10. The guy's honesty is always on point, that's all I care about not just "THIS GAME FUCKING SUCKS!" ranting although that's cool too.

If everyone says that it plays the same as TLOU, only better and more improved than it's fair to at least give high marks for that even though the story is subjectively shit.

I have no problem with AJ, but I'm surprised that so many people care about what he has to say about games.

anyway, I stopped watching his reviews pretty much after I realized that he spoils the plot of pretty much every game he goes over.

Tbh I just kinda lost interest in the "average guy reviews game" type channels. Occasionally I check out Skill Up or a handful of other reviewers because their arguments are articulate and interesting (even if I only agree with like half of what he says lol).
