  • Ok, that's a good sign. Selling me a bit more on this. I'm still skeptical and annoyed with Neil Druckmann though. Really sick of his SJW ideology forcing feminism on us. I love playing games with a female lead, but not when it feels forced, or when something about them feels forced like Ellie being lesbo, or Nadine somehow being impossibly good and strong in a fight, even against the series biggest badass, Nathan Drake and his bigger brother. Makes zero sense at all.

    Also, them taking out the doughnut Drake skin from Uncharted 4 to avoid offending fat people. Unbelievable.

    Love Chloe and Ellie but honestly it doesn't feel right that Naughty Dog's next 2 games happen to have female leads. Considering both are being directed by a dumbass SJW Anita Sarkeesian supporter.

  • So....am I to believe that this game is still in the "writing phase...?" I had hoped for something a bit more substantial in regards to length of development as of now.
