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

[old pig]

wow...made it to THAT part

crazy shyt is I was aware of that spoiler months in advance

knew it was gonna come early in the story from reading the comments in here

and still that shyt was jarring...just the brutality of it

it really was like watching a movie scene

didn't expect it to hit that hard

damn.

I could see how this would fukk ppl up who weren’t prepared for this smh

yo that scene was mentally exhausting...I can see why some ppl took a break @ this point smh

Also I'm not saying it as a criticism but I feel ND were heavily influenced by RDR2 with these random backstories you learn about through reading letters, there were a ton of those in RDR2. Like I said it's not a criticism before any developer fan boys jump at my neck, I think they've done it really well.

They had those in the first game. ND’s environmental story telling is the best in the business.

I know this game is overbearing af (in a good way) because I dread coming across too many resources at once

yeah you already know what's about to happen

the part w ellie in the suburbs that's just wave after wave after of dudes had me like

.

The addition of dogs is great too forces me to go back and forth between being on offense and falling back a bit.

Ayo playing w Brock Lesnar fun as shyt i went from playing metal gear w Ellie to straight up squaring up w zombies and giving them work

I don't even think Joel was throwing hands like that in the first one

 

[old pig]

I’m about to take a break and play a lighthearted game like sekiro

 

[levitate]

Still on Day 1 Seattle.

long ass, brutal day!

 

[HiiiPower]

As far as infected go this dilapidated hotel is the most stress and anxiety inducing area I have ever come across in both games

 

[krackdagawd]

I don't even think Joel was throwing hands like that in the first one

Spoiler

she should have just told everyone to leave the room and shot the fair one w Joel the outcome woulda prob been the same

bish was benching 185 as a damn teenager crazy impressive for a female, I have to respect it

Once they see I'm not fukking around they like

 

[krackdagawd]

I physically have the "unstoppable" training manual but nothing opened up for it

 

[HiiiPower]

As far as infected go this dilipated hotel is the most stress and anxiety inducing area I have ever come across in both games

and then they hit me with the fukking hospital basement

I miss human enemies so much

edit: Man what The fukk is that

it's even funnier going up against im straight

those weirdos.

Spoiler

I wasn't feeling Abby at first at that change from Ellie to her was very jarring but yeah once you doing shyt w her on your own it's

Finished it after 35 hours. On survivor difficulty.

Instant classic.

I saw the leaks and this still ended up as the most engrossing story I've ever played in a video game. I knew what was coming but it was so perfectly paced and executed better than any video game has any right to. They made me hate the new characters, then love them(except Mel, fuk Mel). Made me love the returning characters even more than a whole lot less.

How they made me Love this Brolic bytch I don't know, but they did. Abby and Lev are the best and don't tell me otherwise.

Even better than the story? Everything in the gameplay is exponentially better. Exploration, movement, controls, gunplay etc and the combat arenas are as well designed as Dishonored 2. I am so impressed and never would have expected a studio like Naughty Dog to pull it off.

I have to play through it another time to see where it ends up on my personal list but this is an EASY GOTY, and easily the best AAA game ever made.

What an ending brehs. I think I experienced what you call Catharsis.

Good fukking luck to any big budget title trying to one up this because all I can think about is playing this at 60fps on a PS5 then playing whatever Naughty Dog and Druckmann have planned next. Jesus.
