Let's be honest for a sec: The leaker wanted to hurt ND. That's absolutely sure. Whether it's about non-payments, crunch, bad blood between employees or whatever the reason made the leaker do his thing: He probably felt the same way we feel about the characters and the story. He knew the story would be polemical, and divisive. That's precisely why he thought leaking the game would cause a stir and as such, hurt ND in the process. Especially the creative process. ND games are at the end of the day, games where the narrative holds everything together.
Now, my own take is that the leaker wouldn't have done it if the story wasn't so terriblefor Joel, Ellie and everything about playable Abby and her pack of multi-culti friends. By ruining that for us, he's also warning us of the horrible quality of the story, and therefore the product.
>Linear story >Multiple endings lmao don't be retarded

The "leaker" was a brazilian shitposter who just wanted a laugh and e-clout.
Joshua Rodriguez
There has been Brazilian subtitles and German (and English) voices so far. We don't know. It would be funny if it was. But then what I said still holds true. If it's a guy shitposting for realz then the leaker knew it would cause a fucking mess on the internet.
Lucas Gonzalez
No, there was also footage in German. It was probably a QA employee testing multiple languages
David Perez
It is possible, Mass Effect 3 did it on reverse, in the end you choose the color of the ending no matter what you did.
Gabriel Edwards
I don't get your point. It's only natural to leak the key plot points or else it wouldn't be a leak, would it? If there was a good ending, he would have leaked that too in order to ruin everyone's fun.
Joseph Perez
b-but you wouldn't know unless you played the game... so uh... you should buy it to make sure there is a good ending, s-so you better buy the game now!
Colton Gonzalez
well the game IS shit, the story IS shit, the faggot DID consulted Anita Sarkeesian about misogyny to create games So yes, blessed be the leaker, and ND may burn it down.
