The Last of Us’ original co-director unhappy over HBO show credits snub:

, Straley’s relationship with Naughty Dog and Sony is described as “strained.” He told the outlet that his not being credited in the show, despite his directorial role in making the source material, has him thinking about unionization efforts within the games industry as a means to ensure proper compensation and credits for creative works.

“It’s an argument for unionization that someone who was part of the co-creation of that world and those characters isn’t getting a credit or a nickel for the work they put into it,” Straley said. “Maybe we need unions in the video game industry to be able to protect creators.”Straley isn’t listed in the credits for the HBO show, though his contribution to the original game was noted in the

been a fan of the last of us since it originally came out and holy shit the way the fanbase has turned is hilarious. Bruce does deserve credit from the get go it was him and Neil who went to naughty dog higher ups and said heres the pitch for a new game. yet people say no 🤣😂

I wish him the best. It was quite painful watching people downplayed his involvement in TLOU since Part2 launched.

Daily reminder that Bruce told Neil that someone crossing the country for revenge in a post apocaliptic setting was stupid and Neil did it anyway lmao

What about all the other people who worked on the game, is he campaigning to get their names in the credits too?

i was gonna come drag kotaku again for this dumb ass article (they got another victim to champion, boys!). seems i'm not the only one who sees through the thin veil of bullshit over at kotaku.

Who dis? 🤔 Nobody cares. fr

Why would someone get credit for something they didn’t directly work on?

Sounds familiar but why?....

What episodes did he directed be credited?

Hilarious

If it makes you feel any better none of us ever read that anyways...

Wait… is that picture his screen credit? Yeah I can see why he’d be unhappy, that is a bit silly.

Funny how Bruce co wrote Last of Us 1 and Uncharted 4 and those games had banger stories. But Last of Us 2 was written without him and was a complete disaster. Funny that.

😂 He had nothing to do with anything on the TV show. He’s not even with the team anymore. What a clown. Get outta here bro. Here’s your credit 🖕🏼

Nooooo, Neil druckman wouldn't do a thing like that

Bruce was credited for his work 10 years ago on the game. He is even mentioned in the part 2 credits which he did no work on. He quit the company and stopped making games for 5 years. Now he wants credit for an adaptation he in no way did any work on? Lol

They’re only going to credit the people who worked on the show in some way, or where there’s a legal necessity to do so due to IP licensing issues. Where would you draw the line, otherwise?

What’s he talking about? Everyone knows Neil Druckman does everything single handedly over at ND.

twitter users when Neil Druckman looks the slightest in a bad light

Someone known for taking credit for stuff he didn’t make takes credit for stuff he didn’t make, more at 11

The whole Naughty Dog was credited for the creation of the game and Neil was credited because he worked in the show

He co-directed game 10 years ago, didn’t have anything to do with the show, he didn’t own the IP. But he should be credited to get a piece of pie because everyone else is making money.

You either for Sony or you get Blacklisted.

He did not work on the show, and he did not write the game, so why would he be credited?

No sane person cares!
