UPROXX - The Last Of Us is a game that our own Nathan Birch was worried would flop this year. But that was before we played it. It’s in no danger of flopping; it’s simply too good for that to happen. Which doesn’t mean, however, that it’s perfect: Here’s what Naughty Dog did right… and what went wrong.
"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?
I thought it was pretty damn good. Most of those negatives are pretty negligible and forgiving considering how good the rest of the game was.
Not gonna be like "Oh you had negatives with the game?? Your site sucks!!", but I will try to have my opinion on them, based on my experiences.
•The “Clicker” Enemy Type Is Severely Overpowered
In some areas, you don't have to fight them at all. Just sneak by very carefully. One example is the area between the Church and the High School. There's like a million Clickers, but if you are very careful, it's possible to not kill a single Runner or Clicker at all. Either just slowly crouch past them (since Clickers can't see you), or throw bottles or bricks to make a Runner to away for a bit (since they still can see you). However, in areas where you are forced to fight them (like the beginning of Winter), it does suck that there are Clickers and Runners in dozens trying to kill you, but it's not impossible. Just keep running, shoot your enemies, throw Molotov or bombs, grab dropped ammo, and rinse and repeat.
•There Are “Boss” Enemies
I wouldn't call Bloaters "Boss" enemies. More like mini bosses. They're not too hard either. Try to shoot the glowing sacks on its body. Also, throw one or two molotovs at it, and a few shotgun rounds, and it's dead. Be careful when it throws its spore bombs though. They take off ALOT of your health if you stay in the spore.
•The Game Spawns Enemies Out Of Nowhere
I kind of agree. In the security camp place, the one with the library, and the second place where you get to listen to Ellie's "pun"ny jokes. I know I defeated everyone on the outside. I know I defeated everyone upstairs. I know I defeated at least everyone on the right side downstairs. Then when I go to stealth kill the enemies on the left, I get stupid and get spotted, and suddenly there are people coming down from the stairs. I was like WTF??!!! So I die on purpose to get me to the last checkpoint, and the respawned enemies are there >:/
•It Can Be Unclear What To Do Or Where To Go
Ehh, I think this is kind of nitpicking, but it did happen to me once or twice. I was stuck for like 5 minutes, the L3 button appeared, but it disappeared before I could press it. Had to actually Youtube it, and I felt stupid after. It was RIGHT THERE, and I couldn't see it -_- again, not really a negative thing. Just a really minor annoyance
•Ellie, Learn To Swim
Haha, story is about a year long, and Ellie still doesn't know how to swim. There HAD to be a river or beach off screen. In fact, there was a river and beach onscreen. Don't know why Joel couldn't spend a day trying to teach her. Oh well, it happened several times, and it does make you groan and say "HURRY UP! I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO!!" on your second or third playthrough, but on my first playthrough, I groaned after the third time, but it didn't break the game or anything.
Game was epic. Not only is it an amazing game but its a survival horror game, which cease to exist nowadays. Hope they make a sequel on ps4.
My only problem with the game was a personal one. I'm not really a big fan of stealth gameplay so some parts felt like a bit of a chore for me to play. But the rest of the game was so damn amazing that I completely ignored my dislike of stealth gaming. No other style of play would've fitted in with the story anyway.
It is not a 10/10 game, probably an 8 or a 9 for me.
- repetitive boring mechanics like getting a ladder or a crate
- AI glitches threatened immersion at times
- Only one stealth kill animation and stealth in general was not very well done.
apart from that it was a great game but not without its flaws, flaws which would get any other game marked down.
