It's a shitty situation, and I really feel for Neil and the rest of ND.

It's going to be two long months until the game releases.

I dont normally hope someone gets fired, but.. I'm not sorry I hope someone gets fired if this was via a disgruntled employee.

And anyone that posts spoilers outside a designated spoiler thread is an absolute fucking asshole.

Just like when Endgame had a sizzle reel of it's biggest spoilers, I will do everything to avoid spoilers again for Naughty Dog's next masterpiece.

There is no point being 'careful' on social media. Just don't go on it instead.

Glad I don't really care about spoilers because people are just posting them in Twitter threads. Already seen stuff that I didn't intend to.

I don't even care about the last of us 2 but holy fuck avoid social media at all costs if you care one bit. I clicked a wario64 tweet about the release date and it was just a ton of pictures and text with massive spoilers.

I feel a lot of regret that I read the spoilers because I know actually getting the real experience would have been so much better than reading 12 cynical bullet points that glaze over the plot. It sounded bad the way it was condensed into bullet points and out of context streamable clips, but I think we all know its somehow going to end up being incredible

Pretty sure I read spoilers. Hope it was someone trolling but I'm pretty upset. Was really looking at playing this spoiler free.

This has nothing to do with the topic at hand.
Druckmann's tweet is plastered in the topic showing more concern for spoilers leaking then ever addressing the issues he helped foster in ND at the cost of jobs and well being of the people working there. It's a perfectly fine thing to bring up.
Shitty post coming from ya, not a surprise.
Yeah not a surprise that I dislike shitty people and someone else would defend them. Fanboys gonna fanboy.

all the "this is really shitty for the team, who are very excited to bring this to you" framing feels funny in a grim way considering if anything it's been made pretty clear that a lot of the team is incredibly tired of working at Naughty Dog.

pretty sure being made to crunch a ton hurts a bit more than having the game's story leaked out.

A lot of the team ? B
You only need one person leak stuff like this and ND is much more than one person regardless of ERA Druckmann jokes....

They both hurt. It's not a contest.

My friend has been crying about this, it's a realll shit feeling when something you been killing yourself over gets sent out and ruined for people early.

People are so selfish and fucked. But its the process of moving from a creative medium, to releasing it to the public. Always feels like giving your child away.

Too bad the internet can fucking suck. But its good a lot of people are avoiding and protecting from it.

What are you talking about? There's no defending a work environment like what ND has created. I agree with Jason that there are better ways to show their frustration than leaking the entire game when so many people are involved not just the terrible decision makers over there.

Take heart if the game was accidentally spoiled for you: you'll probably still have a good time. Context is king when it comes to story and it's easy to hear a snippet like "Snape Eats Dumbledore" and freak out, but you still lack context. You don't know how or why or anything. I myself saw some info from the leaks and now I'm mostly just curious. I don't feel spoiled. I'm actually more interested than I was before. How will that all play out?

We're so used to learning things linearly in stories, but sometimes it can be an interesting exercise to approach a story from a different way. To know the end in the beginning, regardless of how the storyteller tells the story.

Obviously, don't spoil yourself and whoever leaked this is garbage, but I'm just saying: it's not the end of the world. It might actually make it better.
