The former Chelsea defender came under a lot criticism, following Brazil's 7-1 loss to Germany at the 2014 World Cup.
Neville likened the Brazilian defender to a 10-year-old on a PlayStation, although Luiz insists he holds no grudge against the United legend.
"I think that respect is imperative," Luiz told Bleacher Report.
"I'm not saying that people have to like me or that nobody can criticise me. Do it with reason and balance, though, with responsibility. Not lacking respect.
"You can criticise someone, say they didn't play well. That's fine. When Gary Neville talked about me being like something out of a video game, that's the sort of thing that lacks respect, especially because he was a player.
"But I reacted in a positive way because I know that he's learning, and he's growing into a new profession. I think he realised that he'd made a mistake, and he spoke well of me later on. These things happen."
