Neil Druckmann is the widely lauded auteur behind the hugely successfull Last of Us games and HBO show.

But he is also associated:

- platforming and amplifying the voice of Anita Sarkeesian. The ripple effects of this collaboration can be seen in almost every game where fun is replaced by preaching and activism.

- booting Amy Hennig and retiring Nate Drake. After his takeover, we never saw another Uncharted, arguably the face of ps3.

- dividing the fan base ON PURPOSE

Should he be stopped before it's too late and he takes over and runs SONY into the ground? Or is he a gaming Messiah? Please discuss lol

Considering you say he "booted Amy hennig" tells me what this thread is all about.

Evan wells was in charge when that all went down, and from everything we've heard, she simply was not producing the goods, her team spent time making a DDR mini game for uncharted 4.

No I don't think so. Gaming is more than one person. I have nothing against Neil Druckmann and think he delivers games people enjoy even though I don't. Is xxxx destroying music, movies and books.

What is with this weird hate boner for Neil?

Oh no he made a story decision you didn't like in a game

Move on buddy, touch grass. I didn't like THAT decision in Last of Us part 2 either but completely discrediting this man every opportunity is sad boi behaviour.

he's ruining gaming by refusing to make more games in a timely manner!

He ruined the last of us for me. I'm still looking forward to naughty dogs next game though.

Some of you people's obsession with Neil Druckmann is steering into mental asylum-territory.

He can't retroactively ruin the first game though

 

[John Bilbo]

I don't think so. He's just living according to his values as any other man.

He's just a guy who's only directed 3 games, the last one almost exactly 4 years ago.

We've seen 2 new Uncharted games since he took over as director of UC4(2, 4, and Lost Legacy are my top 3 UC games) , and a remaster collection thing.

Dude's worked for 1 studio his entire career, making games for 1 platform. Which makes his work incredibly fucking easy to avoid. If his games offend you so much, why don't you just not play them?

If my post offends you, you too can avoid it.

U4 and the dlc is the last we saw of Uncharted. U4 was last for Nate.

The weird hate boner some people have for Druckmann is pretty creepy.

Or is he a gaming Messiah?

Well, he's Jewish so it would be 'Mashiach'.
