The Last of Us remake has come under fire once again ahead of its October release, with a tweet from developer Robert Morrison going viral and catching the attention of fans and outlets around the world. Morrison hit back at claims that the project is a little more than a cash grab from Sony and Naughty Dog, praising it as one of the most “meticulously crafted” games he has ever worked on, boasting quality, animation, and craft that few in the medium can match. I don’t doubt that in the slightest, and wouldn’t be surprised if the remake even sets a new benchmark for the studio moving forward. But Morrison misses the point.
