Everything is as usual: the director of The Last of Us Part II began to receive death threats due to leaks

Naughty Dog VP and The Last of Us Part II director Neil Druckmann in my microblog indirectly confirmed that recently he began to receive death threats.

It all started with Druckmann jokingly asked The developers of Ghost of Tsushima have a pre-release copy of the game. The director wanted to participate in the "action" God of War Cory Barlog, but was not "advanced" enough.

"Sorry Corey. You did not fulfill the norm in terms of the number of death threats received. Maybe next year,” Druckmann hinted that he had no problems achieving the “necessary” indicators.

It is highly likely that Druckmann found himself in this position due to recent The Last of Us Part II plot leaks. Previously, players have already shown dissatisfaction with the direction chosen by the developers by throwing dislikes at them.

Sorry Cory. You haven't hit the necessary death threat quota. Maybe next year. ?

Unfortunately, there is nothing new in this situation. Some players always take change to heart. Is it a joke: developers No Man's Sky at one time such threats came due to the lack of promised butterflies.

A very recent example: Game Freak added to Pokemon Sword and Shield only half of the total number of Pokémon from past games. The reaction of the most emotional part of the community did not keep you waiting.

As for The Last of Us Part II, Druckmann ready to discuss scenario decisions made by the developers, but after the release on June 19th. Meanwhile at Naughty Dog asking gamers Avoid spoilers and don't spread them.
