I never participated in the tlou discourse because I hadn't played any of the games, but now that I've watched someone play the first game I gotta ask........ why was everyone so mad about the plot of part II when part I is far worse. Like I'm sorry wdym Joel escapes with Ellie, completely ignoring her autonomy to decide wether she wants to do this or not, kills her mother's friend and former guardian and lies to her, dooming all humanity, just because he wants to be a dad again and he's too much of an asshole to get a new wife? Fuck this guy fr, glad he gets killed in part II!

#m #video games #never in my life would i have guessed that the wholesome game about a grumpy dad bonding w kid in the apocalypse would end like this #HE LIED TO HER!!! SHE TELLS HER TO SWEAR THAT HE'S TELLING THE TRUTH AND HE LIES TO HER AGAIN!!!!!!!!#not even a 'well he's a morally grey character because he has legit reasons to act like this' no he's just an asshole #and this is supposed to be one of the best games in gaming history!!!!!!!!!!! girl this sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#im never listening to gamers ever again y'all have the critical analysis of a 4 year old #time and time again i hear 'check out this game it's great' and then it's mid at best #it should be mandatory for gamers to read a good book or watch a good movie to realize just how mid games are #the bar is so low that is creating a wormwhole in the space-time continuum #there are exceptions ofc - disco elysium undertale and signalis are some great examples i can think of rn #but a lot of the games that most gamers put in their top ten - mostly aaa games - are genuinely just mid
