The Last Of Us Director Neil Druckmann Is Now Co-President Of Naughty Dog

Completely deserved I'd say. Wrote and directed the fastest selling PS exclusive of all time, had the balls to make the game he and his team wanted, not what the suits would've wanted AND exposed internet bullies for what they are: frustrated and entitled little snowflakes.

We need more people like this in the industry.

We only get to wait and see which path he will take from now on, cause I loved all previous ND games, we will see if he learned from the mistake he made.

Nice reward for messing up one of my most anticipated games ever and pissing off millions of people for daring to not love his baby as much as he expected them to. Just what his massive ego needed. The game sold well because everyone trusted ND. Many won't make that mistake again and will wait awhile before buying their next game to make sure its something worth their $60-$90. Yes it was a decent game on its own but when compared to its predecessor, it was a huge disappointment for many. I don't think they even originally planned to make a second game but the suits probably demanded it. It kind of shows in that it looks like someone came up with a great idea and said that would make an awesome game, which became TLOU. And then suits said, do it again and Druckmann was like, OK now we have to come up with a story for a game, lets all put our heads together and come up with something, which became TLOU2. So many obviously bad decisions made for that game, it boggles the mind that ND couldn't see it. The saddest part is, when you say anything bad about the game, defenders come in and say you just don't understand it. Then they try and explain to you what they somehow just know Druckmann was shooting for with the story - the fact that every one of them comes up with a different version of what the story was meant to be about shows they haven't a clue. The game wasn't that deep. There is nothing to misunderstand.

Look how they massacred my boy. First game was a master piece. Second game took a huge dump, and made it to the worst game of the year. Glad i didn't spend 60 bucks on this POS.

@sandrawfh84: Is anyone actually dumb enough to use these links?

I personally don't like Neil Druckmann recent attitude but nevertheless, congrats on becoming Co-President Of Naughty Dog.

TLOU2 wasn't my personal favorite game but the gameplay was legit fun but overall, I prefer Ghost of Tsushima over TLOU2.

Well done. Very talented writer and for me TLOU P2 was game of the year.

Bros be mad.

How can this idiot who ruined the Last of Us be Co-President? MY god Naughty Dog went down the toilet for real, might as well flush it down and never look back.

@karengig84: Don't do it, she looks just like Abby!

NaughtyDog was already on my never again list because of this Troll.

The way he handled TLOU2 was disgusting and immature..

*Youtubers being flagged for talking about the game was disturbing..

Even fans of the game should be appalled by this powerplay because next time it will be against them or something they care about etc..

Funny how as you get older you allow principles to get in the way of things ;D

Awesome news. TLOU2 is my game of the year for sure. If you haven’t played it, don’t listen to the critics and try it yourself. You might not like it, but if you’re like me, you’re gonna love it. At least you’ll know for sure what the real answer is for you. Don’t give so much power to critics and make up your own mind.

The weird thing for me is giving more power to someone who was exposed for some crude working conditions during the development of his last game. Game industry as its normal.

I believe the term for this is "failing upward"

TLOU2 was the best game from ND.

Stay salty while their games break sales records.

Really doubling-down on that mistake, eh?
