The Last of Us Part II | PS4 | June 19th (NO OPEN SPOILERS)

[Brandeezy]

This is a game that wants to force you to play it a certain way. That way is mostly melee stealth kills or setting traps. Guns for the most part are worthless. The ammo is to artificially limited and they're too noisy. Often times I come across ammo but the game won't let me carry anymore so I have to either shoot a few bullets to pick it up or just leave it.

I've also in segments tried to use other people as distractions or use myself as one and try to get the partner to kill the enemy. For the most part this doesn't work because the enemies will ignore other characters and just focus on attacking the player. The partner AI also isn't smart enough to dispatch an enemy unless it's a scripted segment. The partner characters are mostly just decoration. Even when they're with you the truth is you're really by yourself and can't count on them for much.

I've started losing my patience and I just rush the group of enemies over and over again until I pass the segment. I really wish the game allowed for different play styles.

what level you on?

Dina coming through in the clutch for me, she took out a Shambler by herself while I was running around with no ammo

Maybe turn your ally AI up???

I had to get through this area full of WLR, and I found a store with a group of clickers trapped. So I opened the door, threw a bottle to get their attention, then the clickers chased after the WLR, and I slid through while they shot at them.

Reading the side stories as you progress through the game was one of my favorite things about the first one. They captured that same feeling here.

This game brehs

I honestly don’t remember the last time I played a game, watched a movie or read a book which was equal parts scary, exciting, depressing, etc. My emotions are everywhere because they hit hard and hit well. Had to take a few hours off just to collect and calm myself.

Maybe turn your ally AI up???

You can do that?

The combat overall is dope, but I gotta say the human encounters so far have been my favorite in gaming, period. It’s pretty because of how real they feel. It’s so tense on Hard difficulty can’t wait for a Grounded run now, that’s gonna have to wait for PS5 tho

I heard ND was very thorough this go 'round with the customization options but I didn't think they'd go that far. Dope.
