For some a lesson in revenge is not enough to justify the decision to make such a drastic and schocking thing happen to one of the most beloved characters of all time in games.

Not my personal view on it but i understand how others can look at this and when there is so much backlash for that same thing then it raises the question if this was a bad direction or not.

I'll ask you a similar question.

What are some of the reasons you think Naughty Dog 1.) had that event happen 2.) at the stage it happened? (As in early in the game vs late in the game.)
What were they trying to convey, and how did the timing and execution of that scene affect this?

Lesson in revenge

is more vague. I'm looking for more elaborate analysis.

I want to compare my understanding to your guys. Because as I kept playing, I became less and less against the decision, and eventually felt like this was more or less the only way to do what they tried to do. Which I've never seen before in a game. Or perhaps any medium.

I've given up trying to find logic in the hate. The more I read about the game and the way the story unfolds, the clearer it is that it's a well-written story with well-developed characters that makes logical sense in the context of the situation but that some people will bend over backwards and stick their head up their ass so deep they tongue their own throat from behind just to justify why they're frothing at the mouth to rant about SJW propaganda. 

Every reasonable person I've met has similar experiences as you. Without the inherent bias going in, the story makes plenty of sense and the characters are reasonable. There's nothing worth getting angry about, but I guess someone heard there were lesbians in the game so they twist everything they can to hate it. 

I don't even know what to say about all this anymore. IT's just so exhausting to argue with people who aren't conversing with logic but shouting agendas about limiting representation while crying and pretending to be the victim. It's really quite sad, and it's even sadder that so many people are playing the 'it's equal on both sides' card as if that's a catch-all to act like there isn't a right and wrong answer here.
