Yeah this wasn't exactly like a big change of pace for the brutal tone of the game.

This. Also, pulling a knife against a dude who literally killed all the guards to get to the operating room, with that look on his face to save Ellie wasn't the smartest idea. It's practically begging for "please kill me with my own knife." At the very least it doesn't help to de-escalate.
I've been turned since from that gamescom trailer a couple years back. Liked the first game but no interest in this at all.
Y'know early on I felt the same way. I was still interested in the game but I felt kind of like how I feel about the recent Tomb Raider games — and their weirdly overly abundant death animations for Lara that don't really serve a purpose beyond being gruesome for their own sake. Then later when ND started talking more about the story, and how the game itself being about violence, the cycle of it, people's willingness to dehumanise each other (and so on) gave it context that actually made me more interested than I was before.
LOL, what? Maybe if you love violence so much the problem is with you? Getting sick seeing someone bite off another person's fingers seems...normal?No it was perfect. If you threw up, the problem might come from you. The game is not for you, that's it.
It was the only moment when I legitimately kind of went "eww".Right? The Seraphite fight was the grossest thing The game did.
Left looks better. She looks exhausted and kinda broken. Better conveys the gruesome journey they went through during the game.
Yeah I thought this thread had to be about that part, the only part where it felt like it started going too far, I think I actually shouted NO at the TV! If it would've had a ton of that I may have a different view of the game.That's where you barfed, not the big black cult dude getting his face removed?
He already said he is still going to be writing and directing.I understand you OP. I decided to never play this game way back after the torture trailer dropped, which I still haven't seen til the end. This just isn't for me. Too much violence, too much hating, too much darkness. I want the colorful creative lighthearted ND back. Hopefully we'll see a stift now that Druckmann steps up a level at the company, with some luck he won't have time to think out these horrible stories anymore.
youre special.i dont get it
edit: oh i get it, you're just a creep who's upset at how shes not as cute and young as before.
I disagree. This one scene artistically looks nothing like the rest of the game.
Yes nothing else has this "fidelity"
No other cutscene does she look like Will Maisie.This is genuinely a baffling comment lmao. They gave her a better looking model that still retains Ellie's look and it's somehow wrong?
just think it looks uncanny.
LMAO. I finished the game. I hated it the moment I finished it. My GOTY. Im working on permadeath grounded right now to platinum the game. Disappointed in no PS5 upgraded.uh what does this mean
Also, OP, did you play the rest of the game leading up to that part? I'm genuinely confused about how one would make it to that part totally chill but then see that and think, "that's it, that's a bridge too far"
They are the same age in that scene. She looks like young grandma Will Maisie for exactly one scene.what am I looking at
she grew up
she isn't going to get older and not change
im utterly confused how this scene passed. Totally ruins the last scene for me. She looks hyper realistic, and she wasnt sad in the last scene. She was emotionless .... Aaaaand thread derailed
I kinda agree, sometimes better tech doesnt mean better art
I love last gen Ellie's expression and I dont think that the new model was able to replicate, personally
But this was like, 2 seconds of the game, so whatever
It's funny because despite Ellie looking as good as she did on the PS3 her new model makes the old model look less human.
how about you stop being a child.Posts like this one, along with some people fan casting 25+ year old actress for The Last Of Us tv show really gives me creepy vibes. It's like people get mad when they can't fantasize about a 14 year old girl...
Some of you are overly protective of this game. Maybe to really set some of you cuties. Abby's tits suck.
Classic nonce post.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed this. In a lot of ways, I noticed that LoU2 was a game designed around either subverting or taking seriously the tropes that games have taken for granted.We have become super desensitised to violence in media, and even encouraged to pursue and revel hedonistically in it within gaming. Turning a blind eye to that in regards to the narrative they were portraying would actually have been far, far worse imo. Ludonarrative dissonance got memed to death but TLOU2 is the logical conclusion of where a legit discussion of violence in media takes you.
Did you really just swerve into people being "protective of the fame" for calling out that drive by shit post that looked a bit creepy?
This is how she looks
Even this looks normal.
This is some uncanny vallely creepy cyborg. Only scene she looks like this. Its like they places ultra realistic eyes into a video game model.

The scene has nothing to do with being exhausted or broken. Did you play the second game?Left looks better. She looks exhausted and kinda broken. Better conveys the gruesome journey they went through during the game.
When movies and TV went mainstream all the gore was gone and didn't increase at all, as we all know.I refuse to play games with so much gore in them. I can't understand people who see so much blood and guts flying around and think it's an ordinary thing. Humans have issues.
But with games becoming more mainstream we will hopefully see a reversal.
Easy to say now but I'm guessing that he'll eventually take a backseat approach kinda like Miyamoto. I guess he might still control the content though and that's the problem from my point of view. He's just too darkminded, he's great at writing characters and relationships but everything he's directing seems to go super dark. Except Uncharted 4, somehow he managed to get a happy ending there.He already said he is still going to be writing and directing.
Yeah, I've definitely had responses like this before. There's no shame in it, though.Honestly, it was a really weird experience for me. Yes, I've played all the God of Wars (love them) Helios' death was one of the coolest things to me. I was okay with most of the gore here and had no problem. But man, dismemberment.. for me personally there's something just horrifying there and I think Naughty Dog did an excellent job telling the story here because prior to the fight, I was saying, Ellie. Let it go. Just gwan. And then the fight happened and Im like omg here we go.
I was amped and as it's going on, I see Abby get Ellie's hand in her mouth and then saw the fingers flying, and yeah...it was too much. I've only felt that grossed out before when I watched the Human Centipede. I wouldn't be surprised if my subconscious is now associating Human Centipede with TLOU2 now because of it.
Haha. It's been a long time since I played it. Can't say I remember that. But it adds up with the second one. I get its a video game, but if they are going for a realistic story, having the characters be super heroes takes you out of the experience pretty quicklyRemember in the first game when Joel gets 100% impaled through the stomach, and then is able to walk and stay conscious for like an hour? And then goes for days before a 14 year old perfectly sews him up?
Well it's for a reason, lol. Uncharted and TLOU are different series. He doesn't specifically want to make violent gore fests. He loves making emotional character driven games. TLOU just happens to be in a violent setting.Easy to say now but I'm guessing that he'll eventually take a backseat approach kinda like Miyamoto. I guess he might still control the content though and that's the problem from my point of view. He's just too darkminded, he's great at writing characters and relationships but everything he's directing seems to go super dark. Except Uncharted 4, somehow he managed to get a happy ending there.
That was her realizing it was all for nothing and Joel was probably lying, she absolutely was exhausted and broken after the Hospital. She literally never gets over it even and it constantly eats away before she just goes and finds out for herself.The scene has nothing to do with being exhausted or broken. Did you play the second game?
That's not what they said. They were talking about it being the end of the first game. In TLOU1 in that scene, Ellie looks like exactly the same as the start of the game. It makes total sense she should look older and more exhausted by that point.The scene has nothing to do with being exhausted or broken. Did you play the second game?
Im not concerned about swerving into questioning people's protectiveness, when they are basically calling me a pedo. For disliking graphics and changing a expression on one of the best video game scenes of all time.Did you really just swerve into people being "protective of the fame" for calling out that drive by shit post that looked a bit creepy?
Lol, come on...
Its the truth thought. People really have to relax. Abby has a nice ass. Bad tits. Excuse my heterosexual ass.I mean you could have said it in the first place, but ending your long post with
doesn't help at all.
1, Why find blood and gore cool even if it's not real?
2, Isn't the whole point of fiction that it resembles that which is real? E.g. a sad story is meant to make you sad and not laugh. Realistic violence is not meant to be cool.
Its the truth thought. People really have to relax. Abby has a nice ass. Bad tits. Excuse my heterosexual ass.
You made a stupid ahit post that set yourself up for EXACTLY that.Im not concerned about swerving into questioning people's protectiveness, when they are basically calling me a pedo. For disliking graphics and changing a expression on one of the best video game scenes of all time.

That's super weird to me. I thought the violence and gore was way worse in God of War. I played the original 3 this year, then TLOU 2 and then GoW PS4.Honestly, it was a really weird experience for me. Yes, I've played all the God of Wars (love them) Helios' death was one of the coolest things to me. I was okay with most of the gore here and had no problem.

1. She looks younger in the updated model.
2. You've accused someone of being a creep because of this.
Its the truth thought. People really have to relax. Abby has a nice ass. Bad tits. Excuse my heterosexual ass.
The first game was violent as fuck, it just didn't look anywhere near as good lol.I mean there's a part in TLOU1 where we blatantly see Joel fully impaled through the stomach and you see blood fly out.
