  1. The naughty dog hack was a good thing. Exposed the toxic work enviorment and saved me $60 from playing tlou2’s awful story

  2. If the Death Stranding movie doesn't show excrutiatingly long scenes of walking simulator, that'll be the ultimate proof that DS's gameplay is BS and you have to suffer through it to get an amazing story.

  3. Who wants a Kojima movie? His writing is the worst part of any game he's ever made. Bland, uninspiring, derpy cringe. He needs a "no" guy. Good lord.

  4. There’s no need to pay CEO’s tens of millions of dollars. We could have all these “live” games and more if the capital was focused on the product.

  5. Leaking early game development footage is one thing. Insomniac can just shrug this off by saying "yes, this is what games look like when they're in development" but the employee data is the critical thing here. That sucks for everyone affected.

    Silver lining to all this? People interested in game development can see how weird games in development look when stuff isn't working as it should.

  6. Naught Dog lost all respect with them killing the multiplayer. Was literally looking forward to that since 2014.

  7. Swen's statement about the game being meaty and being a whole product make me happy. I miss the era when that was normal, it's an awesome throwback.

  8. Idk why people hack these morons realise majority of hackers get caught right? And since these guys basically robbed insomniac of potentially millions in sales once they ARE caught they will be going to jail so what exactly did they get out of this besides jail time the hatred of EVERYONE and becoming big Bubba pins cushion in jail so….yea don't be an idiot don't be a hacker
