Fantina 3,282 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 My dad is also watching TLOU and listening to him talk about how he enjoyed (didn't say love but it is a step forward) the episode made me feel like I could come out to my parents this year. I saw the episode before him and had to lie that it wasn't anything special (so he doesn't suspect anything) but was shocked when he told me he liked it more than the first one When I reminded him that I played the game before he asked me jokingly whether I had to kiss and eat strawberries in the game too and had to explain to him that this part was VERY stressful in the game but for different reasons Until then, this is Elvira saying unpleasant dreams.

This is one of my favorite LGBT stories Also, to the pressed straights: (warning, spoiler for TLOU2 but funny regardless) finished The Last of Us Part II over the weekend. It was fine, but some aspects of it really rubbed me the wrong way. I just don't understand what narrative purpose it served for Tommy and Maria to be a married couple. They talk about their marriage and how they seperate at the end. It was really off-putting because it felt like they were forcing it down my throat. What was the reason why they had to be together? To score brownie points for straights? I tried to brush it aside but then we get introduced to Abby. Its clear very early on that she has romantic feelings for Owen. More straights?! And then, the two have a sex scene. It's very in your face and it just screams agenda. It seemed like Naughty Dog just wanted to appease the straight community instead of focusing on the story. They were some natural and organic characters in the game like Ellie, Lev, and Dina (who had a male partner in the past). But they just had to ruin it by forcing an agenda. I don't have a problem with straight people (my landlord is straight), but I do have a problem with them having to be in everything. I was playing this with my seven year old, and after a couple of murders, dog stabbings, and blowing off people's heads, I had to take him out of the room when Owen and Mel kissed. It's just ridiculous we can't have family friendly entertainment anymore. Overall, do better Naughty Dog. BRILLIANT* 😂👌🏾 Egypt. W Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really can't wait to see what's gonna happen when they show us the Left Behind events and the rest of the seasons tbh what i dislike about this is how many want to say "i dont care for the gays but this is a filler episode of a short series"... at least learn what a filler episode really is before using it as an excuse for your homophobia, dudebro. english is not my native language >.< Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think both my parents kind of do, but I still get homophobic comments from my mom. Like how they ruined HP by making Dumbledore gay in the recent movie etc.... I was planning to come out to them this year because I don't want to hide it anymore and this episode definitely boosted my confidence. Until then, this is Elvira saying unpleasant dreams.

I really don't want zombie games, I had enough of that You definitely can!!! A lot of my friends are watching it without experiencing the game first! I don't want to sound pretentious or like that I am pressuring you, but the game is much more than a regular zombie game. It has amazing storytelling, dealing with more topics than your average zombie shooter. The sequel has one of my favorite stories of all time. Until then, this is Elvira saying unpleasant dreams.

Good to know that, now I just need to renew the hbo max sub lol I'm just too old for jumpscares and too much shootings lol Is it ok to just play it on story mode? will i miss anything if I don't play on normal/hard? I think I have the ps4 remaster free on ps+, maybe I should just buy the ps5 remaster on sale or used, I think it's easy to platinum because there's no online, I'm a platinum fanatic, I have 41 so far, it's a big deal lol His fart felt like a kiss Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexy 3,164 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Wasn't completely blown away by the first episode (saw it as fairly run of the mill zombie/apocalypse storytelling), but then really enjoyed the second episode, and the third hit it out of the park, I'm sold Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a fellow platinum fanatic TLOU2 was super easy to platinum. TLOU1 on ps4 on the other hand is a way more difficult because I think you have trophies for playing on harder difficulties too which I didn't do. Until then, this is Elvira saying unpleasant dreams.
