It's his Twitter account as well, not ND's correct? Being one of the problems doesn't mean he's the entire problem, only a portion, large or small.
Neil also heavily implies that TLOU2 was entertaining and popular before it was even released. "Unfortunately, this is now the cost of making popular entertainment that challenges conventions".
No Neil. Unfortunately, that's not how it works. Just because you and your team thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread during development, doesn't mean that's what the players will think. It's the audience who decides whether something is entertaining, and the higher the overall positivity towards the medium, the larger the audience should grow, in which the more popular it will be said to be.
Neil is clearly taking it quite personally, and there may be more than a few reasons for that which impact him personally, but it's not how he should be conveying his defense to the naysayers. At the very least, he should simply agree to disagree if he won't just ignore it, especially based on the position he holds.

It's difficult to take this out of context, considering the tweet includes examples of what human garbage are posting to both him and the actress, yet you managed to do it. Probably because, like so many, you will understand whatever you already set your mind to, regardless of what it really says.
He's not addressing the naysayers. He's addressing the morons who take the hate too far and make death threats.

Out of context? What it really says?
"This kind of hate"?
What kind exactly? Since that's not explained by him. If he's referring to something else, then that allows for, interpretation.
