   The article is just a very long winded way of saying that Neil Druckmann has obviously been very much influenced by the Palestinan/Israeli conflict which is no secret. Saying that the way the walled of zone looks just like the walls in Israel/Palestine is goofy. It is a concrete wall. The same ones exist in the first game for those QZs as well.

   Why do people hate Druckmann so much?

   • He grew up as a settler in the West Bank and the story is largely rooted in a settler’s perspective on the futility of “cyclical violence” and I hate it so much. Some clarifications: Druckmann and his family left Israel in 1989, when he was 11.
