Neil Druckmann shared some details on writing the script of The Last of Us and casting Joel's character with Troy Baker.
Pocketpair, the developer behind Palworld, has said that the studio plans to remain a small independent game developer.
Hideo Kojima is widely known as a video games auteur, but what are his best games outside the Metal Gear franchise?
The Dragon's Dogma 2 game director has explained why there is no online co-op and why it was never explored as possibility.
fine with me, I play these kinda rpg's solo anyway. With co-op I always feel like I'm on a timer and can't explore everything I want to and take my time because I don't wanna make the other person wait.
The first game wasn’t co-op. Fans of the first game weren’t asking for co-op. You have pawns to make up your party so you can have full control playing solo.
Having at least one human buddy to join your game as your pawn would be dope, but I'm not complaining.
That is a really interesting way to write one of the best stories in video game history.
I hope Troy and Joel are in The Last of Us 2, it wouldn't feel the same otherwise
This style of writing and adapting to Troy's take on Joel certainly worked for TLoU.
I don't doubt that writing a full story beforejand also works in some games too, though this type and the mixture in mechanics seems to have demanded the approach.
The writing and the pacing of the whole script was brilliant in TLOU. I don't think I've played a game yet that so gripped me from a story perspective. Bioshock Infinite came close, but apart from that, not many more.
TLOU is a masterpiece and im still playing its MP till this day. Nothing quite like it tbh
