What is the controversy about?
The Last of Us Part II controversy is exhausting

I loved it.
I understand why people with LEGITIMATE complaints hate or just don't like it.
I can't stand the idiots that review bombed this thing with their anti-SJW bullshit before the game was released.
As with The Last Jedi reactions, I'm done with the Internet being dumb and needing complicated art to fit neatly into a "bad" or "good" category and trying to argue these things like there's a right or wrong answer.
What really sucks is the death threats and horrible messages aimed at developers and actors who clearly worked incredibly hard on the game. What also sucks is the overreaction to people who don't like it who are automatically assumed to be in this group when they're not.
I just want to talk about how awesome this game was for me while listening to legit complaints myself and others have, and for the most part that's been easy to do in my circles.
But there's something about looking at the sea of YouTube "takedowns" and Twitter idiocy surrounding this thing that is just ... so incredibly draining. Mostly it's cause I know many people will make up their minds about this thing based on some Internet guy's opinion rather than playing it.
I kinda hate online culture.
Anyway, I'll share my thoughts on the actual game itself if you want to hear them (I'm mixed on a lot of aspects of it but think it's great as a whole). I just needed to vent about the silliness surrounding it.
