The Last of Us 2 Online mode often referred to as Factions 2 was said to be in development for four years, with a team "in the hundreds."
The original was so good. What was the issue here? All they had to do was basically recreate what they already did.
All ND multiplayer were top notch!! Uncharted were so fun and engaging. Online coop was a total blast 💥
Maybe they were trying to release Factions 2 as a gaas using the name of the series as a selling point and didn’t work out?
I think they simply were not happy with the end product and decided not to dilute a masterpiece of an IP with something lackluster.
“The original was so good. What was the issue here?”
This issue is that Instead of making improvements upon Factions they chose to go big and chase GaaS.
@StormSnooper The game is dead. To be successful a Gaas needs regular content. And you need a lot of people for that. Palworld is another exemple not enough content the game is dead too.
No, gaas is not the problem. There are good gaas games. Helldivers is an example.
Well with how much care part 2 had put into it, I think they just decided to put factions to the side to get that over the finish line. Then shortly after they wanted to expand the multiplayer which delayed it even more. And then they wanted to convert it into a games as a service title which I think changing gears that many times just shattered what was there and just wasn't coming back together well enough to ship
Even if they wanted a full version, I wish they could have put a smaller version in the game, even as a teaser
at least then we could have the same as the first game
@shaenoide
dead? Palworld literally has 20k people playing at this moment on steam alone
that's huge, in what world is that "dead"
This, the only heads that should roll are the ones who greenlit Concord while letting Factions get cancelled.
They didn't need to go LIVE SERVICE route. Just release it as a standard multi-player game without the GAAS trash.
An unbelievable waste of time and money all for nothing.
Really an incredible bag fumble by Sony here. A sequel to a beloved multiplayer mode of a beloved franchise. This should've been a lay up that printed money for them. Only potential silver lining is that ND isn't stuck in GaaS development purgatory for the next 10 years supporting it.
Has HBO’s The Last of Us show changed fans’ thoughts on Naughty Dog’s sequel, The Last of Us Part II? Maybe.
"Everyone in the world of The Last of Us sequel is miserable in one way or another. I mean, it’s the end of the world, we understand that, but there came a time when the game felt like it was written by Garth Ennis – and that’s not always a good sign."
It is not close to feeling like Garth Ennis's comic book style. Garth is a good writer and his writing isn't all tension either, and the same with Druckman's Last of Us II. In romantic comedies, there are comedic tension and rejection with bouts of misery. In dramas, there are bouts of comedic relief among tension, which are also in the game and this awareness is a good sign.
In the end, everyone dies and everyone is miserable at some point in time, even more so in an apocalypse. However, life is mixed with happy moments while entropy is moving in the background, such as a nice time with family and laugh shared amongst friends and so on, which are in the game.
The development of the The Last of Us Part II PC port has been complete since November 2023, according to a reliable insider
Your right as soon as the hype wheel is ready for that show there going to drop it on pc.
But the real question is will this pc port be able to run 1080p on a 4090 as the last naughty dog pc port they helped make it was a dumpster fire.
Like i said before the current naughty dog team is just a glorified port studio but even then they have a hard time actually doing it right.
Yes ps blind boys naughty dog worked on pc ports

Your information is good but you need to stop calling names and start trying to have a real conversation. Fanboys of any product are extreme but that doesn't mean vast majority of gamers are just that "gamers"
... and the water's wet
But I'd prefer the Uncharted trilogy port over this one, tbh
Just porting Uncharted 4 and 4.5 to PC was not the best idea.
Original Uncharted trilogy is my fav of the series. That is a worthy port to PC not 4 imo
No doubt they need more help as the og's left the building so the uncharted 1-3 port would take actual skill/knowledge along with the source code/audio files/voice files.
If only niel D lost didn't loose over 80% of the team that made the company he is "running" and turned into a port studio.
The PC master race looks down upon you mockingly knowing they are in every way superior gamers to you console simpleton.
Even the ones that have a £50 dell Optiplex and put in a 1650 that's weaker than a series S?
for everytime you say that, the library of PS games on PC grows bigger. This year, Helldivers 2, Horizon Forbidden West, Ghost of Tsushima, GOW Ragnarok has a release date for this year and now TLOU2? Hmm.
Potentially 6 titles in one year. It keeps stacking.
If only the new sony leadership was not hell bent on region locking down there pc games to avoid better sales and get more ps accounts even though pc players do not want a jank exposed ps account that has all there personal info ready for another data breach and or just gets sold off.
I still and will never link my old ps account to my steam account the sony tos is to strict i do not want to get my ps account banned because i left my vpn on or sony things rgb is a hacker tool or some other BS.
When TLOU2 is announced, Spider-Man 2 will be pretty much the only notable PS5 first party game not on PC.
Lmao you probably bought this twice because ps5 have nothing good to play. My backlog of games is too big for me to even care it exists on PC let alone how bad the first one launched on PC. Sony wouldn’t be releasing it on pc if they didn’t need $$$
Will you enjoy Gears 5 and Sunset over drive + Ori games on PS5 after 3/5 years?
Protip: Don't play it
