10min in and the guy is still whining about Naughty Dog retweeting too much lesbian fanart...
I wonder if he'll ever figure out that Naughty Dog being "unmatched" in the industry and them being political are not unrelated -_-

What is the “Chloe and Nadine” thing? Because nowhere in the game did they ever hint that either woman is a lesbian. There’s nothing between them the entire game that remotely suggests this.

Oh so just a bunch of nothing... here I was hoping to see Chloe n Nadine kiss when I play the game. 



Im not supporting the game from the toxic crap Ian Alexander is spewing out.



So, finished the video.
From the first ten minutes it seemed like the guy was just trained (probably by listening to idiots) to feel like any and all signs of inclusions are "unjustified", "not called for" and generally bad.

But to make a 20 minutes video just grasping at straws it seems ridiculous.
So, if you skipped the video:
- Naughty Dog retweets too much gay fanart
- Neil Druckmann likes the "bad woman who don't like gamers >:("
- I didn't like the PSX moderator
- This actor is trans aaaaaaaaaaaaaa; (is he not good enough to play a secondary character in TLoU? Dunno)
- Where was the context for the kiss? I need the full backstory of the character here, what's this A TRAILER!?!
- They're not showing Joel!!!!! This means he's dead; and the SJWs KILLED HIM
- Where's Cutter? (in the multiplayer, bless him)

It's all very much nonsense, masquerading as "legitimate concerns" for the game.
A real takeaway is how he never touches on the actual quality of the games he mentions, despite Neil being quite open as to how he approaches writing.
Hell, you can see references to Anita in his presentation about writing women in TLoU!!! The one where he's about to reveal his, quote, "SECRET AGENDA", but then we cut away from him. Jeez, I wonder why....

In all seriousness, can we stop reposting amateurs arguing in bad faith? "Social Justice is infecting ND" barely warrants an eye-roll, far less a thread

Well he still has the right to question it. Its not like he is the only one that feels this way. ND could just say that they aren't working on some kind of agenda instead of telling the people who have the concern to fuck off because the games are not made for them.

Yes. People have the right to have emotionally immature, and half-baked opinions on things.

ND is in the business of selling millions of games. I seriously doubt they're telling anyone "to fuck off because the games are not made for them."

You didn't watch the video, did you?

Watched about half of it. What I saw seemed like a list of extremely silly things to be concerned about. Tulipanzo's recap confirms that the rest of it is much like what I watched.

Well skip to around 14:30 and you can see what I mean.
