If I wanted to see lesbians going at it I'd go look at porn, this don't belong in a game.
Hey really fucking fantastic animation on that kiss scene, much better than any game I can remember right now. Kissing was always really off putting in games for how unnatural and Team America Sex Scene it looks.
I don't understand whats the issue with this!!? I bet you anything if Ellie would have kissed boy in first game again kissed a guy in this game you wouldn't complaining about it would you? Because that much more normal or natural in your eyes.Jesus Christ, Druckmann we get it she's a lesbian, would you stop shoving it down our throaths?
I don't know, I think the whole scene was odd and lacked context, kiss or not. Girls kissing in a church seems to be a blatant attempt at getting reactions out of people.I don't understand whats the issue with this!!?

I can't get past the murder porn. Just not for me.

I think Druckman is trying to make a statement and it was very off putting. It felt very forced in this E3 trailer.
Lacked context? They are clearly couple and gay or not normal couples kiss. I honestly don't understand whats big deal here. Is developers not allowed have gay main characters in their games unless they are accused of pushing some kind of agenda here?I don't know, I think the whole scene was odd and lacked context, kiss or not.

I couldn't care less if they are gay or not, but what was that scene about? How did it have anything to do with the gameplay they showed? It was an obvious play for a reaction in my opinion, but feel free to disagree.Lacked context? They are clearly couple and gay or not normal couples kiss.

The first trailer we saw she was looking for revenge and that girl might have something to with it. This also why Ellie willing to murder them in horrible way.I couldn't care less if they are gay or not, but what was that scene about? How did it have anything to do with the gameplay they showed?

I would have actually preffered to see more of that scene to see what it was all about instead of the murder porn. It certainly was more interesting than the gameplay.

As an animator i commend that scenes animation - its one of the toughest actions to animate. That said, the scene in general just felt weird to me, i think it was too uncanny valley for me
Can't believe they were so fucking shameless.
They win award for the most amount of scripts per second.
They already did that with TLOU1 famous demo but TLOU2 demo takes the cake. At least TLOU1 was believable. This one on other hand is straight up fantasy. Though i have no doubt many people will eat it up without questioning anything.
I mean you have to be fucking blind to not see scripting everywhere: perfect misses, enemy AI, last moment actions etc.
Well that would at least give all the brutality context.The first trailer we saw she was looking for revenge and that girl might have something to with it. This also why Ellie willing to murder them in horrible way.
Wow why did you take it so personal? That's mostly what the trailed showed, walking in many different places, it even showed the guy walking with the baby "activated" after he said he had an idea. So you might as well reread the first part of the comment you quoted.Ok ladies and gentlemen weve found the one man whos figured out what the hell death stranding is. You must be a genius. Problem is Hideo Kojima is just 'slightly' more of a genius than you in this world of video games so ill put my faith in him. Thank you come again.
I think it was marketing. ND is trying to get more sails from the non-white heterosexual male crowd. What better way to do that then to make the gay character the lead and show that in your main trailer for the game. Where the heck is Joel?
I personally really like it so far. It feels brutal, especially the fact you don't have enough bullet to start fire fights like in Uncharted games. Also I'm really glad that they took listen mode or maybe its still there if play on it easier difficulty setting.I'm surprised people have been so caught up on the opening scene before the gameplay started. It's 2 minute cutscene in a much larger game, how can expect to have so much context around it? What did people think of the actual gameplay?

go play UC4 again and see if there is any big improvement in TLOU 2's graphics
I agree. I don't think it's as scripted as people may think. Naughty Dog are experts at dynamic gameplay with Uncharted 4 series and Last of Us being examples of that. There would have been some scripted moments, but it would have been pre-recorded and after being rehearsed 100 of times.Also, just watching it again, I thought it was scripted when she took out the arrow from her shoulder, but there was a button prompt for it. So sick. It's definitely a pre-recorded video. Not scripted.
Deeply troubled that Americans still find two girls kissing as "overt politics."
If Ellie were to kiss some dude in the exact same setting and context no one would have made these "oh it doesn't fit"/"it's being forced down my throat" remarks. ONLY when LGBTQ+ couples show their love do those comments get made. It's pathetic.
Looking forward to another game to wreck my emotions. Going to be great.
How do you know we're not playing as Joel?Not playing as Joel = shit game

How is this an "uber niche product"? And how is it not targeted at the "average gamer or person"?I was on the day one train for TLoU2 until I saw this trailer and then I realised that this is now an uber niche product that isn't targeted towards the average gamer... or person, if we're honest. It's devalued the franchise for me completely and put a bad taste in my mouth.
It's a genuine shame, as I loved the first game.
I mean, your theory would hold more water, if it were not for Left Behind, which was released eons ago, and makes quite clear that even if Ellie wouldn't be 100% lesbian, she's into girls. It's canon.I think it was marketing. ND is trying to get more sails from the non-white heterosexual male crowd. What better way to do that then to make the gay character the lead and show that in your main trailer for the game. Where the heck is Joel?
Girls kissing is taboo, except on certain parts of the internet.How is this an "uber niche product"? And how is it not targeted at the "average gamer or person"?
Well, from how they've been marketing the game so far I think playing as Ellie is to be expected. Maybe they'll eventually throw Joel a bone and make him playable for a limited sequence of 'missions' (like they did with Ellie in the first game). Personally, I would prefer playing with Joel the whole way through.How do you know we're not playing as Joel?
Koala is an Aussie - personally I see many amateur Australian girls kissing (among other things) frequently on the internet, but perhaps he visits other sites.Girls kissing is taboo, except on certain parts of the internet.
Try turning on the light or opening the curtains?It's a bit dark I can't see anything.
Yeah, and not just Australian.Koala is an Aussie - personally I see many amateur Australian girls kissing (among other things) frequently on the internet, but perhaps he visits other sites.
Doesn't look like the gameplay has improved from the first game. That one was already a pretty game, too.
