lolol all because of GameFAQs and its smartasses

P_Bomb3952d ago (Edited 3952d ago )

@blitz
No doubt. Gamefaqs' TLOU board has unfortunately been inundated with pretentious contrarians looking for any and every reason to stir the pot.

It's good he responded, but sad at the same time he had to get dragged into flamebait. But in the end, we can put it to rest with a nice "I would work for that man, for Bruce Straley and the entire Naughty Dog team any day of the week and twice on Sunday."

jc485733952d ago

surprisingly, docman864 apologized at gamefaqs for being a smartass.

ajax173952d ago

You saved my ass! I still haven't got this.

Wedge193952d ago

Spoiler Alert! Need to play this game I guess.

doctorstrange3952d ago

They all turn into geese made of cheese at the end.

TrendyGamers3952d ago

GAH! You just ruined everything!

What kind of cheese?

kneon3952d ago

Various kinds of mouldy cheese of course ;)

RandomDude6553952d ago

It was their planet all along.

Dee_913952d ago

David: We're from a larger group - geese, ducks - we're all very very hungry.
Ellie: So am I - geese and ducks - all very hungry too.

moparful993950d ago

My favorite is when Ellie smears the fromunda cheese in Joel's face

IF he is talking about THAT scene, i agree with Troy. He nailed that moment (as well as the other actors involved) that really set the mood & tone for the game.

All great directors want more out of their actors & if Neil felt that Troy could deliver more that is his job. Sure actors can get upset but at the end of the day it will be all worth it.

TLOU is a pinnacle in game design, game direction, & game acting.

GribbleGrunger3952d ago

But the ironic thing is, Neil wanted less. That's how you do it folks. None of this Walt-Dineyesque OTT nonsense.

GenericNameHere3952d ago

Yeah, it was the beautiful intro that he's talking about. If you watch Grounded - The Making of The Last of Us, you can see his first take was WAY over the top. He told Neil to remind him when the day that "shoot" comes, and wow haha. He did 5-6 reshoots, but none were good, so he got called in another time, and was pissed he had to do it again. 8-9 shoot was when he finally calmed down, and had the perfect shoot. His face in the video definitely looked like he was pissed off at Neil. I wouldn't blame him though. Him and Sarah's actress had to legitimately cry. I don't think I'd be able to do that after the third shoot.

CrimsonStar3952d ago (Edited 3952d ago )

Yea one of the few games that made me cry. Very beautiful game .

McScroggz3952d ago

Neil Druckman is really making a name for himself. I cannot wait to see what else he and Naughty Dog has in store for us. And the fact that Troy Baker and Nolan North have such a great relationship and respect for ND only gives me reason to be more confident and excited for future games.

moparful993950d ago (Edited 3950d ago )

I honestly think that Naughty Dog should create a movie studio with Druckman at the helm, the amazing actors in Troy as well as Nolan and the others, Amy Henning and her top notch writers, and of course Sony's deep involvement in the films industry it just seems like it was meant to be.. They have a wealth of content that could easily translate to the big screen with Uncharted and now the Last of Us..

The Last Of Us Series Has Remarkable Potential For Spin-Offs

Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."

anast77d ago

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.

AlterRecs74d ago

I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.

Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"

anast74d ago

They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.

AlterRecs73d ago

There's no news about a third game being in production, you're just assuming that they're working on something that they aren't

anast73d ago

When they release the news to start the hype-train, you can give me my props then.

DrDoomer77d ago

I want an alternate timeline spin-off, where part 2 never happened.

CrimsonWing6977d ago

They’ve already done Remasters of 1 and 2… what else is there to Remaster?

AlterRecs74d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6974d ago

That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.

The Last Of Us Online Devs Celebrate Their Experience With The Canceled Game

The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.

Chocoburger121d ago

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.

seanpitt2377d ago

I can't wait for season 2 so they can kill Joel off in the first 2 episodes!! Then it will be just Abby and Ellies revenge plot!

Something is telling me that this won't happen though because it wouldn't make sense, oh wait

Linzoid121d ago

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…

anast121d ago

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?
