If I ever play it, I'll pirate it.

The showrunner was Craig Mazin from the Chernobyl series. I think I remember reading this quote a while ago but he's a gamer so you'd think he'd know better

Video game art is when linear series of levels with some cinematic set pieces, primitive stealth and shoot mechanics, obligatory derivative off-the-shelf survival crafting, but graphics and vague gestures of having a plot around as interesting or developed as a 3 dollar bargain bin YA novel.
Imagine thinking that revolution in video gaming was basically a bad and childish interactive film and not something mind-melting like her story, dwarf fortress, or the forgotten city.

Originally I hated The Last of Us for being another fucking zombie game, for bing the start of the grizzled sad dad game epidemic and for how hard Sony was pushing it (more like shoving it down our throats) and padding the sales numbers with console bundles
Never felt more vindicated finding out the creator is a zionist
replies:
You hate The Last of Us 2 because it’s “woke”
I hate The Last of Us 2 because it’s not woke
We are not the same
Haven't played it but I saw a writeup once on how the themes of Last of Us are just zionist ideology with the serial numbers filed off

Same feeling when I found out X and Zero are absolutely functioning as cops: the maverick hunters are an armed paramilitary force authorized by human order to hunt, label, and kill “deviant” reploids.

Ah I had no idea, but it makes so much sense if you imagine Joel as a Ruthless Zionist, Ellie as the "Chosen one" and Fireflies as the Resistance

And then Joel's biggest mistake is literally not wiping out every firefly (that's intentionally written to be Ultra Dogmatic), which basically ends up hurting their lovely little community (Zion)
Hey so can anyone find a source on this? I rifled through a few NY Crimes and Atlantic articles and whatever, and I cannot find the source for the quote. I did find a gamingcirclejerk reddit post in which almost all of the commenters say it was fake and made up on twitter.
Instead of posting sub-reddit memes from half a decade ago, you could just link the VICE article again.

Fake gamer doesn't even remember Cosmo's Cosmic Adventures
Made a thread about it here where we were talking about it when season 2 aired.

My most beloved character in the Last of Us is the golf club
Did the first game have zionism in it? Can definitely tell in the second one.
