Forum Overview :: Peter Molyneux's The Movies :: "just turn your brain off" people are the worst

[quote name="fuck em"][quote name="Rafiki"] Then Joel and Ellie are traveling from Boston to Wyoming and they end up in Kansas City, which is fucking stupid if you have even a casual knowledge of US geography. It's not a problem of not having a map, because Ellie is literally giving Joel direction from an atlas of the US. Then there's the question of why Joel would choose to drive <i>through</i> Kansas City instead of <i>around</i> it, because he knows for certain there's going to be a hostile military presence, infected, and probably raiders and the like. Some asshole would probably tell me to just turn my brain off, but I shouldn't have to turn off <i>my</i> brain just because the writers turned off <i>theirs</i>.[/quote] They didn't even have a 20 second scene where they looked at a map, made up some excuse about Chicago to Springfield being a giant "fuck off" zone, and decide their only option was to follow along route 70? Or a super winter forced them along a more southern route? Anything? I could never stand The Last of Us in any form. "Gamer Dad: The Game", reassuring you that it's better the entire world die instead of your adopted kid as long as the brat grows up to suck at guitar. I'm surprised TLoU 2 didn't include a scene where you go on a mass murder spree to find the one victim with the right blood type to save your kid.[/quote]
