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

Thank you! You can trivialize anything if you reach hard enough. To trivialize this as a shytty revenge story, you could like you said, trivialize TLOU1 as a shytty escort mission. Joel escorted Ellie across the USA only to finally get to the destination and be like “nah, I change my mind “.

And then people acting like Joel is such a saint. What he did at the end of TLOU1 was selfish. I understand why he did it, but it was still selfish. Dude threw away a chance to save millions of people just so he could continue playing father & daughter, with his Sarah replacement.

The most interesting dynamic of the story is seeing the quote “One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter” play out in this setting.

I 100% agree with this post.

I'd just add regarding the bolded. I'm 2/3 done with the game (might be even more, not sure) and one thing I've missed for this whole conundrum is 1 argument that TLOU1 implied but I was hoping someone would explore in Part 2: even if they found a vaccine, chances were that humanity was going to fukk that one up also.

The constant fighting and people doing all kinds of fukked up shyt and "wrong" decisions (specially when you read the letters and different stories in both games) implies that the world was still going to struggle with a vaccine, and there was even a possibility that 1 faction could fukk it all up for everyone just like Joel did.


Maybe this is explored in the last third of the game but so far I've missed someone putting that thought out there (in the game).

My god the 2nd half

I thought shyt was gonna be wack until it kept escalating until the finale

2nd half >>>>> 1st half

you’re further than me, but I’m not bothered if they don’t dive into this, just because I think they do a good job of letting you know without saying it that humanity is beyond redemption in this game

Yeah, it's not a "must have" but considering how the game tries it hardest to show every perspective, I think it would be interesting if that one in particular got a combo too.

Those incendiary shotgun shells are so lovely

edit: claiming reviewers were paid is still dumb as shyt,

nikkas will swear reviews are paid for then start Juelzing when you ask them how Days Gone only a 71 Metacritic.

If paying for reviews was a thing, all games would be +90 meta

Yeah, like I don't even think military women are THAT swole. They'd probably be like what you said, Ellie but slightly bigger and more toned.

It looks wild though because you have Manny there with her chilling, and he looks like your average dude, while Abby's out here on her Broly shyt. But I do like her character. Seems to be your typical militia girl who's seen action.

I simply explain that she got that big by cannibalism. Its the post apocalypse you gotta get it how you can

Yep,Gotta keep that Protein Intake up by any means

Also,I can see myself after beating this,just letting it breathe and then doing 1&2 all over again...I hope they throw in a New Game Plus like GoW did

I’m on Day 3 now I’m loving it so far I really appreciate how open the areas are gives me a lot of room to try out all the skills and tactics you’ve earned.

Spoiler

man just Joel telling Ellie what happened that night at st mary’s might’ve been as bad as Joel’s death scene. Joel should’ve just told her from jump. I’ve been really appreciating the flashbacks

Maybe then when you come back the multiplayer mode will be on

Since the concept of preordering means nothing during Rona season, my copy just arrived. I don't know if my body is ready, brehs

The shyt going on in this country's got a nikka already emotionally drained, I know this game's finna have me even more in my feelings

I’m gonna play 2 up to a certain point (won’t spoil it)

then I’m gonna go back and mentally treat where I’m @ in part 1 like a “flashback” (I made it to the university so I got about 5 chapters left)

then I’m gonna return to 2 and finish it

finally I’ll play ‘left behind’ which I’m assuming is a prequel

I’m about to be TLOU’ed out by the end of next week

 

[King Jove]

My goodness the violence and gore in this game is brutal

 

[Rain]

Post Seattle Day 3 and I thought I would just run through it real quick...but I'm just obsessed with searching every corner in this game. I don't know if I'll ever finish at this rate

aggressive is just my nature

Im more Aggro than Stealth but ill go Stealth when needed cause an Infected Swarm after being spotted by a Clicker and you got 2 Bullets between your Firearms aint Fun
