There were quite a few previews released for The Last of Us this week, most of which were full of positive feedback. However, a number of sources all expressed concern about the game, mostly on the side of the game’s stealth mechanics.
"The Game Music Foundation are today very proud and pleased to announce an additional concert, circling back to the roots of Game Muisic Festival in Poland. On April 28th, 2024, the National Forum of Music in Wroclaw will once again become a place to celebrate the art of video game music, featuring scores from The Last of Us and The Last of Us Part II." - The Game Music Foundation.
Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."
They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.
The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.
All they had to do was make a basic online mode like their previous games. Instead they wanted more money and choose to go live service which makes games worse in my opinion.
What a waste of time and money, what a shame.
Not sure why they didn’t just make Factions 2. There was no need to make it a live service.
TLoU Factions was a great addition such a shame they couldn’t be bothered to remaster that for PS5 considering the crazy high price tag of the remaster of a remaster…
This is something to be celebrated. This studio is smart and they get it, even factions 2 wouldn't've have been worth the time. I am surprised they didn't just remaster the first one though, but actually how popular was Factions?
Good I'm glad to see this. Saw that Listen Mode and instantly didn't want that feature. Want the game to play exactly as we saw it in the first demo shown for the game.
My settings:
- Difficulty / HARD
- Subtitles / OFF
- Game Hints / OFF
- Strategic Tipps / OFF
- Tutorial Hints / OFF
- Violence / ON
- Lock On Aiming(!) / OFF
- Listen Mode(!) / OFF
- Melee Prompts / OFF
- Show Tag Popouts / OFF
Would make it harder but also more real. I can't wait for the day we can minimize and eliminate HUD data. I think it feels more real without a cluttered screen. I think things like putting the health pack on Isaac's back ala Deadspace is a good example of better hud substitute.
I'm surprised people and the media were moaning about these things. Naughty Dog are top developers and it was obvious they would include options to turn these things off. Sometimes previews can be good but it does give the opportunity for some journalists to have a moan and a go at putting the game down before they receive the final code.
All previews have to be accessible to every level of gamer, that's how it works. Can you imagine putting the settings on hard for the previews, all the casual game reviewers would have a fit.
Well there goes on less thing people can complain about, its good to have options thats for sure.
