Yep, TLOU Part II was in the lead, but than druckmann sent this tweet:
Then Ghost of Tsushima won all of a sudden.
Druckmann since deleted his tweet

I bought Automata a while back but I havenât gotten to it yet because I have so many games to play through. Will be doing so soon though. I think I might get Replicant down the line too.

The show always ends up a good time. The cynicism around it (and gaming in general) is baffling to me.
I donât like Druckmann at all. And I still believe that Straley is the better director. Hoping Ghost of Tsushima wins game of the year at The Game Awards!!!
Never heard of Striking Distance. May be worth looking into for our ongoing Acquisitions bets.
Not surprised to see ESO. I think if the ink isnât dry on Zenimax, what weâre looking at are games with pre-existing commitments (ESO, Doom Eternal DLC Part II, Deathloop, Ghostwire Tokyo, Fallout 76)
Never played Elite Dangerous. Thatâs frontier, right?
I checked Striking Distanceâs website (https://strikingdistancestudios.com/about-us) and it says theyâre working on an âoriginal narrative experience within the PUBG universeâ
And yeah, Elite Dangerous is from Frontier. Odyssey is a new expansion I believe.

Honestly, until recently I was really sour on both because I thought they forced out Amy Hennig, but that was supposedly bullshit peddled by IGN. Fwiw, I liked Uncharted 4, but her touch was missing.
As for Druckmann, I have yet to play TLOU Part II, but I have mixed thoughts on him. He doesnât deserve the vitriol slung at him for creative choices or political views. That said, I really think his behaviour like in the tweet above or in his spat with Schreier can do more harm than good.
Idk, Iâm not a fan of the whole Rian Johnson approach of âpeople who dislike my work are trolls and I gotta own them on Twitter.â I much prefer the behaviour of people like Colin Trevorrow or Todd Howard who take the approach of âI know your criticism comes from your love of the franchise. We want to do right by you and know your voices are being heard. That said, back off with the personal attacks, but I know this is a vocal minority of you.â I think one form of behaviour escalates a divide and makes things more toxic view of âIf you like TLOU 2 youâre a raging SJW! If you hate TLOU 2 youâre a raging alt-right basement dwellerâ when in reality there are plenty of people of all political stripes who like or dislike a work for a number of different reasons, and I think shutting down the trolls without hindering a free and open debate is important.

PUBG universe? I never really got too into that game. I guess there is a lore.
And thanks for the clarification on Elite Dangerous.

My issues with Druckmann is that compared to the first TLOU, he literally kills the franchise with Part 2 in my opinion, he pushes his agenda all the time at the expense and sacrifice of whatâs better for the franchise, he and Sony DMCAâed so many videos on YouTube because of the massive leak they had regarding the game and he even had Sony PR contact at least one critic who gave the game a 6 or a 7 and he (Druckmann) wanted to know why. Druckmann is a massive ego-maniac who needs to go in my opinion but thatâs obviously not going to happen. Haley Gross also needs to go because like Druckmann, she canât write a story/narrative or characters for shit. Everything is excellent in TLOUP2 except for everything connected to the story and characters in my opinion.
Uncharted 4 was disappointing for me as was TLOUP2 but yet, I loved Lost Legacy and I realized why - itâs because despite being credited in the game, Druckmann had almost nothing to do with the game itself.
So im hoping Tsushima wins. Itâs simply the better overall game and I would much rather see Sucker Punch get a goty win instead of Naughty Dog, Druckmann and TLOUP2.

I know nothing about Elite Dangerous. What is itâs structure? Is it an MMO? Is there a single-player (or co-op) campaign and then a seperate multiplayer mode? Whatâs the deal there?

Iâm not sure because I have never played the game, but I think itâs a space flight simulation game thatâs open-ended, the Steam page says itâs an MMO which also has single-player. Besides that, I have no idea.
