Got needs score above 88? Really? So, if its going to be just 85, sony is gonna close sucker punch?
Can someone explain why you all think The Last of Us has an amazing story/writing? You can spoil the full story if it helps to expain, I will never play it.
It was never truly a first party thread to begin with(once we got here at least)
Well since you are never going to play it, just imagine it being a rip-off of Breaking Bad but all discussion about meth is actually about The Clickers.
I think we see a lot of that from ellie .
Still got a feeling that a lot of those moments some people not going to like if she out for revenge .
Well we still talking about first parties devs even if the topic all over the place lol.
I thought that it was Janina Gavankar when she was speaking to a fan who was doing cosplay and they were speaking about HZD.
Good dialogue, great characters and arcs, an interesting conflict, fantastic cutscenes, gameplay that always feels meaningful to the story being told (on top of just being great), great performances etc.
TLOU is just a fantastic all around package with very few flaws. No Sony game has bested it from a story telling perspective, and very games overall either.
Warner Bros. won't let the next Rocksteady game be exclusive to one console. Makes no sense.
Marketing deal? Yes. Full exclusivity? No.
A lot of people bring up the writing, the perfomances, the overall story and world-building to evidence The Last of Us greatness, but I think gameplay and level design are just as stellar. TLOU is legit one of the best designed games of its era, with plenty of option for different approaches in its big and multi-leveled areas, and the stealth-action gameplay is still one of my favorite set of mechanics in any game since. The one area where I'd agree that the game is somewhat mediocre is the enemy AI, something that ND has showed improvement over the years in its more recent projects.
You do realize Rocksteady is owned by WB right? There will be no exclusives produced by them unless it's like Arkham VR and it's a 6 month deal.
The characters. TLOU's story on its own is some trope filled overdone shit that cinema has done better. But this also goes for Uncharted. I personally play ND stuff for the character interactions. They are second to none. If you've watched a zombie film, or read a book or anything you've experienced TLOU basic plot. Joel and Ellie carry that plot on the backs of Troy and Ashley's performances.
I don't actually think the story itself is amazing. It is a fairly standard story.
It is the execution of it all along the way that pulls you in. All the character interactions and dialogue culminate to that very last line of dialogue at the end of the game. You would have to play it to understand.
I don't wanna understand why it's so loved everybody love what they love but from what I played one question remains I don't get the Joel love at all. Ellie? Ellie hell yea amazing so far, Tess? She should've stuck around but Joel? Don't get that one
Don't worry, when the PS5 gets announced then we'll finally have something to talk about in here again.
Yep i also like the gameplay and level design which are great for it's time .
All the stuff they adding to TLOU2 for gameplay has me really excited .
Some people like characters that are morally grey .
I mean we have people who love straight out evil characters for what ever reason so someone like joel not that bad lol.
Won't we just talk about what ND doing next but instead it'll be for ps5 and not 4
It's been ages since I last played TLOU (hell, it was on PS3, so 2013-14), but I remember the gameplay being great, fun and tense and the only things I was actually not that happy with are probably going to be implemented/improved now.
Things like the enemy AI, a lack of certain actions like dragging corpses or going prone (which you can do now in Part II), dual encounters with humans and infected... Sure, the writing, performances and visual presentation are going to be stellar, but I think people might be sleeping on this game a bit too much when it comes to its gameplay. I think it's going to be an absolute blast.
But if I were to choose which game I want to see more of right now, that'd be Ghost of Tsushima. Maaaan, I'm thirsty for that.

That and what JRPG Sony is going to develop for PS5 lol
Nah when we see PS5 we will be talking about HZD2 a lot .
I bet you for sure that game will come out year 1 for PS5 .
Maybe that will change with TLOU2? ;) Imo, all the characters in TLOU are great, hard to pick the best ones.
It was how flawed he was.
He was broken from what happened 20 years prior and he didn't want to go there again with Ellie but it happened anyway.
Fast forward through their adventure and he does all kinds of stuff to protect and save Ellie. This includes lying in Ellie's face.
It all just shows how deep his love goes and just how hurt he really is. He is so desperate not to go back to that place again 20 years ago that he is fine with being a brutal, selfish liar. As long as he can protect his daughter this time, that is all that matters to him.
It is great.
With PSVR "support" means that it should not be VR only....
Yeah but Sony thinks throwing games a bone with PSVR is good enough. I just know they'd develop something for VR and leave the main console out.
I loved his character arch simply cause he went from a cold hearted father that watched his daughter die in his arms, to learning to love another child that also helped him find his humanity again. Joel was a straight savage throughout the game but you start to see him lighten up a bit towards the end as his relationship grew with Ellie. Also helps that Troy Baker fucking nailed that role imo.
PSVR deserves it's own games but a R2 remaster would imo for sure also work without VR.
"You know, Ellie, we really are The Last of Us."
Tears me up every time
/s obviously
Remaster and next gen part 4 announcement please. Make me happy!
Don't give Sony any ideas. They might actually think it's a good idea to put games on PSVR only that got their fame due to console.
I'm afraid of zombies since my childhood. I'm completely incapable to watch/read/play a movie/book/video game which include zombies.
I will play Uncharted games one day because I really want to understand why people like Naughty Dog games so much, but even if I really like those games, I just can't play The Last of Us.
Okay, thank you. So it's more the storytelling than the story, right? Have you a concrete example of that?
Sure, TLoU P2 will give you that hyper realistic torture porn, but that's a dime a dozen, what other game is going to let you role play as a samurai and fuck people up with one swipe of your sword while looking like a complete badass?
Look at those animations as you fuck him up, look at the soldiers recoil in fear, look at the blood stains on the floor, look at the background, LOOK AT IT ALL!!!!

Sucker Punch better have a whole team working on the photo mode because it's the first thing I'm gonna try. Seriously, all of Sony's games should have a photo mode as deep as Gran Turismo Sport's
Oh, I didn't know. But I can't enjoy Uncharted 2-4 without Uncharted 1, right? This is what people told me when I dropped Uncharted 1 (I think it was in chapter 3, something like that).
Yup, this is game is going to be screenshot heaven.
Last gifs, because Ghosts just looks so damn good that it's not fair to other games...
Not amazing story, the plot is actually quite basic (Ellie is immune to a infection that affects humans so Joel has to get her to some people so they can find a cure). Not that there's anything wrong with that, I definitely prefer something more simple with great characters than some convulted shit with a lot of characters.
It's all about the tone and the moments during the travel of Joel and Ellie. And the voice actors were great, some examples.

Yeah for sure I really liked the combat scenarios the game throws at you, there's a good mix of stealth and gunplay.
I especially liked the later sections in the DLC with the infected and human enemies at the same time. I hope to see much more of that in TLOU2. The exploding arrow we saw in the E3 demo will be so good.
It's cool to see his transitioning from not caring about Ellie to treating her like his daughter and doing what he did at the end of the game.
It's not about hyper realistic torture porn but all that animation goodness .
The dude that break down TLOU 2 gameplay animation talk about how advance it is .
What also important is seeing all that animation goodness in MP, i really hope Sony and ND push the MP more than part 1 .
R3 in 4K and VR support would be amazing! Best FPS campaign last gen imo.
For me it's the best and perfect FPS Campaign of all time.. they ended the trilogy with a very high note <3
Finish the game. Joel is a reflection of how many of us would react and ultimately become in an f'd up world like that. His character arc is brilliant. And one of his best scenes is towards the end of the game, not to mention the scene everyone loves is the finale because of how muted it is.
