tl;dr: a fan asked for Druckmann to turn down the political message on The Last of Us 2 and he said "NO".
>A fan of the game recently asked Druckmann via Twitter if Naughty Dog would decrease the amount of “personal politics” in “The Last Of Us 2.” The question itself has since been deleted, but Druckmann’s answer is still online. "No can do," he said. His reply, which can be seen below, was both straightforward and honest, and it gives anticipating fans another clue to the sequel.
Who cares. It's not like TLoU was that amazing anyway.

Why does Sup Forums complains about games that are not catered to them?
You act like a feminist who complains about the newest pantsu simulator and how it doesn't pander to her
Jason Hughes
It's the game they want to make man, no one is forcing you to play it.
Thomas King
wth is personal politics(in this case)? i can see politics mattering in a post apocalyptic society. lots of crime and people missing or dead and you need to restore order. if anything there should be loads of politics in the storyline.
Jayden White
He did nothing wrong. "Personal politics" doesn't matter, I will only give a fuck if it actually affects the quality of the story.

The only thing the west produce that is good is: Forza and occasional action games like 007.

If none of those games cater to your taste then ignore them, bitching and moaning about it wont magically cancel them also

Naughty Dog are trash, and saw they could make some cash pandering to the tumblrinas, while also making cash from their "loyal" fans ( A.K.A retardedly obsessed fanboys) and have continued to become worse

What do they mean by personal politics? Like how the 2016 US elections effect the characters on a personal level?
Blake Myers
A person creating a video game should have the right to create the video game which they have envisioned.
And the customers with the money have the right to not purchase it, if they disagree with that vision.
The only thing you need to do, if the "personal politics" bother you that much, is not purchase the game. There are thousands of other video games being produced at the moment. You can spend your time and money on one of the many others.

am I right sonygger?
Jose Fisher
Without the blatant obvious pandering and shoehorned in personal politics how would the game get all those 10 OF 10 TRUE ART GAME OF THE CENTURY reviews from corrupt, mouthbreathing journalists?
The Naughty Dog of old is looooooooonnng gone and if you expect anything other than movie games from them nowadays you are legitimately retarded

Cameron Perry
i mean, why should they? its their game, they're expressing themselves through it. thats what creative people do. no one has to agree with it.
Reposting to this point I can see why mods are deleting these threads. Give your opinion on the game itself when proper information comes out or the game itself drops, don't shit up my board with social media gossip and agenda driven shitposting

Doesn't it usually affect the quality of story? I can't think of any non-Japanese games that actually used politics effectively without alienating the audience. Well, save for Tom Clancy games & other Pro-War shit that triggers the shit out of cuckboys.
LOU 1 actually wasn't that bad, but I never bothed with the LGBT DLC. The initial game was just straight up survivalist shit.
What pisses me off is that every time I want to buy a gaystation, they always come prepackaged with shitty Naughty Dog games. Kinda hard to fucking ignore these games when they come with the damn system. I had to buy a Fat PS3 with only 60gb used because that's how much I didn't want to buy a PS3 with LOU. I eventually bought LOU used to see wot the hype woz about. I was not impressed not at all.
When I tried looking for new copies of PS3 back in 2014, all I could find were PS3s that came with Last of US.
3 years later now that I feel like getting a PS4, all I can find are fucking PS4s with Uncharted 4. I'd much rather have no game pack in then to ever contribute Sony's cinematic game bullshit.
I have played LOU & Uncharted and even the actual gameplay is just walking for the most part until you get into the cover shooting combat.

Sup Forums doesnt even want this game though, we just want to shitpost

Literally had a thread 4 days ago where people were complaining about Nintendo being sjws because Akuma explained how why Zelda is crying. Sonyggers shitpost to he'll and back in the thread about nintenjews and sjws. In that thread I brought up that druckmann said he was going to do this in an earlier interview. People defend it saying Druckmann doesn't let it effect the game.
4 days later Druckmann interview "my personal politics will effect the game" >based druckmann can do what he wants The denial is palatable
Luis Foster

the fun thing about Sup Forums's contrarianism is that whatever is in the majority will eventually become hated
the pendulum begins to swing back the other way and the assblast being created is off the charts

so its only ok to request a creative person/people to alter their work because it doesn't fit your worldview if Sup Forums disagrees with it?

Mods usually delete threads that looks like they came out of Sup Forums(like this one) if anything you were asking for it
There's other ways to critize a game without involving stupid politics
Jonathan Rivera
If it's logical politics given the setting, fine. If it's today's identity politics, then that's not fine.
Like most things, if handled well it's alright.
Judging from how they handled Nadine in uncharted 4, though, I won't hold my breath. That was just bad game design.
Charles Fisher
Daily reminder the money spent on The Last of Us they could have made Ape Escape 4, a better and improved The Last Guardian and a sequel to Omega Boost.
Nathan Robinson
And all they needed was to improve the gameplay. But still a smudge on the windshield of a new super mario bros game.
