I'll never forget how the Oscar award for Best Picture that year was accidentally given to La La Land instead of Moonlight.

Don't know if that's good or bad.
It's a great film, with a great cast. My only issue is the focus on super serious and the days of Uncharted/Crash/Jak and daxter light hearted fun are all but gone for more darker serious source material. I feel thats what they have been focusing on too much. Lost legacy had the best blend of fun, darker themes, and was just a more focused adventure without all the filler that UC4 had.
Wish they went back to that for a little bit, as I can only take so much dire, dark material.
TLOU 1 is literally the only ND game I've ever played... And it wasn't all that amazing to me.
I don't think they really cater to my sensibilities.
Never saw Moonlight. Only heard that it's suppose to be good. They said the same for Brokeback Mountain, but I didn't care much for that movie, so I'm not enthused

Gay black men will surely sit well with gamers.

Are talking about the character in Moonlight, being a gay black guy? If so, then that's cool as more diversity is always a good thing.
If they're taking inspiration from the story telling in Moonlight then......no. It was an okay film, but I'm still struggling to understand how this film won best picture. Personally found it a slog to get through with no real plot to follow.

As long as the character is written well where anyone can connect to the characters plight, does it matter? Issue I have is when the director or developers are trying to beat a concept or political view over the head repeatedly. The best films that do race, and sexuality like Moonlight are not so on the nose, nor do they beat the viewer over the head saying" you need to understand, you need to feel". instead through the story and character's actions/emotions through their experience connects with the audience where we all feel for him/her.
Thats why Moonlight is such a great film. It's a journey of a emotionally num kid that had a shit upbringing where the only good person in his life was a drug dealer played by Ali. Then to have a intimate moment with someone he connected with, but also was afraid of showing how vulnerable he was. Which is why you see a physical transformation when the movie fast forwards to him as a adult.
It does such a great job of taking you through this kids life through being a kid, teenager, to adult and how the emotional impact of being bottled up and beaten down has lead him to his physical presence by the end. It's one of those movies thats super rewatchable that you can pick up on little things that explores more into the characters.

I wonder if they are going the way of dontnod, where they are more of an activist company using games as a medium.

Thank god we have so much choice in gaming right now. It's easier than ever to just avoid shit and never think of it again, even if it's from well-known AAA studio. For this, I am thankful in today's modern gaming. TLOU2 is best example, literally like it never existed for me.

Oh fuck off Naughty Dog.
Nobody gives a flying fuck that you want to have a black lead for your game, literally no one.
Just stop parading this idea like you're a godsend for doing something that has been done before.
You're not special.

Find it doubtful that they'll get their usual level of funding if they change their output too much. Not to mention that they've spent the last 15 or so years iterating on the same basic TPS formula and technology base, which Isn't the best fit for Dontnod's YA-novel style offerings.
I'd also suspect Sony would be urging them to take a more crowd-pleasing route after going out on a limb with TLOU2.

This man going to trigger people at a level that will pale in comparison to lou2 judging by early comments on these threads. Day 1.

A black, gay character on the cover would certainly be the antithesis to the current meta.

Imagine a Naughty Dog game with a gay black lead. We are talking 105-108 Metacritic score if the game itself is good.

If it doesn't involve gameplay, I literally couldn't care less whatever they decide to do.
They've made the same TPS for 2 gens now.

I was kinda excited at first as i thought it was moonlighting, its a really old detective tv show with Bruce Willis and Cybil Shepard.
Dammit, i am showing my age, any oldies here remember it? it was around the time of another great tv show called LA LAW.

To me its the opposite. And outside of Insomniac, Kena is done by a third party. God of war is pretty serious, Days gone was gloomy as well. I think my issue was UC4 was to long, then we got Lost legacy which I loved, then we got Last of Us part 2 which was one of the most depressing games I've ever played. I just dont want it to be that dark you know what I mean?
I'm down with serious source material. Just not something that makes me feel like shit by the end of it.

Side note: waiting for Moonlight to come to NF. Got great reviews.

TLOU2 was a once in a lifetime game. I dont think ANYONE is going to be making a game that makes you feel so miserable on purpose. I get what Neil was trying to do and I even admire it on some level, but it's too much and I think they realize that.
Their next game will likely be similar to GoW in terms of seriousness. GoW was actually a lot of fun.
