I've just finished the game, and I don't wanna straw-men people.

Why is there such political anger and things about this game? Is it really just the fact that Ellie is a Lesbian? We've known that for 6 years.
Or did people really not like Joel dying?
Or is it something else? I'm very curious.

Cant say for sure, but I think many people need a "hero" character. Someone to root for. This game doesnt really go for that.

I think that's pretty much the crux of the problem here.

Usually the job of sequels is to give fans more of the stuff that they liked, but I guess Druckmann decided to do something that hasn't really been done before. He *wanted* to get these negative feelings out of us. Very bold, I'll give him that.
