That was me with TloU2. Love the game to bits, played it without any spoilers, without looking online. After I finished it I was surprised it had a lot of backlash and controversial views.

However this just looks bland. The screenshots are what turned me off first, then reading about the battle mechanics that are nothing like DA: Origins. Then the culture stuff started to come out on top.

Dunno if it's the culture war stuff that started the blow up, or is getting amplified because the game is simply not that appealing to original fans of DA. Same as turning TloU2 from a happy 'shoot everyone in the way' to a 'here are the consequences' type story had people amplify the culture war things in the game.

TLOU2 was amazing, I get why people were mad about the whole Joel thing and the shallow side characters but everything else was top tier. I think that was fake outrage cause of the Joel thong cause 60% of people finished that game, double the usual ammount for games that size so many of those complaining had to have enjoyed the game and why wouldn't they, it was a masterful tale of the cycle of revenge only hampered having everything reset mid game and it feeling like two separate games. 

I think the outrage was not fake, it was legit, but blowed up out of proportion because social media allows people to get attention they otherwise would never get

I just think people got overboard with the hate for this game. The once fans are essentially haters at this point, it's similar to Star Wars fandom. I love Star Wars movies and can't get myself to interact with other fans online because all they do is to hate Star Wars lol
