Why do people try to say TLOU has shallow gameplay?

It's funny that you think this has everything to do with the platform the game is on, and not the game itself.

Sounds like every major publication outside of that one that you linked is in on the anti-XBOX conspiracy.

:rolleyes:
Fox new retards crying about the liberal media :heh:

No he was not, stop it. Pick up items and proceed and watch scenes, really? Come on breh don't encourage ignorance.
what's the point of this thread when you know where it's going? the neogaf thread was far less toxic, and it got closed. here our mods just pour gas on the fire...

This is true in my opinion. The different guns in gears make you play differently, and the enemies force you to use your guns and your allies in different ways.


Check dishonored for the true meaning of this statement.
dishonored is not seeing last of us.


It's funny how you can Pick small details like how different weapons affect a game like gears but the last of us is totally simplistic and shallow.

Use the same strategy from the first encounter, for the rest of the game?

You can't see how your just being a bitter hater?

Do you not use the same strategy the entire game?

Both Are shallow. The combat in gears is better, the story/presentation in TLOU is better

what's the point of trying to have a conversation about the gameplay in TLOU, if you're just going to immediately appeal to "any exclusive game released on the xbox 360 or xbox one"? is there a quicker way to derail the thread into generic console wars nonsense?

No you dont:what:

I feel like gears isn't even as complexed as uncharted, which is a pretty simple game.


Last of us is on another level

No you don't. The strategy is always different depending on if you in a room full of clickers or runners or humans or a combo of runners and clickers. It also changes depending on your health and supplies you have at your disposal. You are wrong!

Not gonna even read past the second page of this thread because it just got too ridiculous. All I'm gonna say is, if TLOU is a game of corridors, then World of Warcraft is a turn based rpg.

I know there's far more posters on the coli than the usual suspects who post so I'd hope for more serious discussion from the usual circle jerk or cess pool threads.

I'm sure you used a bat in the room with david when the horde of infected burst through the house.
You used a bat in the beginning of the winter chapter right? As a matter of fact you used a bat or stick all throughout that chapter right? :heh:

That david fight in the burning kitchen, lemme guess you used a bat?
You used a bat when waiting for henry and ellie to come back after going through the opening on the top of the door right?
Oh yea and a bat in that gym fight right??
Lemme guess you swung your way through that chapter where that guy is sniping you from down the street through the window??

You see where I'm going?? You sammy sosa'd your way through the game huh?

On hard mode or survival difficulty, the way you play changes dramatically.

I never said it was a requirement for a game to be good. I said i enjoy games that do have some impact full choices more.
I don't see you praising Beyond Two Souls, Wolf among us, TWD, 999 9 doors 9 persons 9 hours, Zero escape: Virtues last reward and a bevy of other choice oriented story games though. You say this game has no choice in the story therefore it's not impactful to you yet you praise Ryse?? You said UC/TLOU are similar to Ryse therefore Ryse is not impactful huh?

Naw when the big dudes come, and another dude jumps on the stationary gun, then the wretches come from the side. You have to use all your weapons and all your different strategies to besuccessful.
:what: You mean use either a long range, short range or mid range weapon right?? Unless you talking about horde mode, Gears SP is straightforward.


The bat and the next blunt object you pick up do the same damn shyt. They don't change how you approach the game, and they don't change which type of enemies you can/should engage.
As if the bat is the only weapon in the game. If you use a brick or bottle and it makes noise it attracts other enemies, that can cause unintended results such as enemies swarming you. You could've stealthed your way through with either a shiv, chokehold(humans) or bow and arrow.
