The Last Of Us: Part 2 has been in many discussions lately. Let's discuss the potential conflicts in the game that have players divide.
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
... 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.
The game's huge marketing budget has worked out for it, bringing in $2 billion revenue in its first 10 months of release.
I think it's about time for government agencies to step into mobile gaming and look around, this is shit.
Homophobia. It’s natural in people. Spread the awareness
What's dividing the fanbase? Maturity
Playing again on NG+ hard and I'm liking the game even more. There's so much that I missed on my first play through. Some of the scenarios that I disliked the first time has completely changed my mind on 2nd run. I appreciate the design of the game more. That part where you're being attacked while upgrading your weapon? I planted 3 bomb traps and man it's so satisfying to hear and watch the traps go off followed by the aftermath results of missing limbs based on the direction of the blast. I thought the game would cheat and bypass the traps but it didn't.
I honestly believe if the leaks never came out people would be far less divided.
Sure the game would still be divisive but the leaks and plot bullet points made the game seem so shallow and nothing at all what it’s really like. People had a whole month to cement the idea into their heads that they’d hate it and that Neil ruined the game, instead of giving the game an open minded and fair chance.
So to me it mostly comes down to those who went in with an open mind, and enjoyed it and those that decided they hated before even buying it. Of coarse there are those that went in with an open mind and hated it or those who thought they’d hate it and loved it but those people are outliers.
