Playing the last of us 2, definitely a mf vibe we don't have enough post apocalyptic gems nowadays metro exodus and dying light 2 are both I can't forget lovely experiences, I got over Joel's death lol I stayed away from last of us 2 for that reason but I been enjoying it alot so far

anast526d ago

I still haven't played Metro Exodus. How is it?

Yui_Suzumiya525d ago

Metro Exodus was really good. Each area you travel to is semi open-world so you can tackle the main objectives at your own leisure and explore the areas to find supplies as you wish. Very rewarding and fun.

I really enjoyed this one when it released. The story is pretty nuanced and powerful. You get attached to the protagonist. You kind of want **** to die painfully but with the backstory it’s all understandable. Kind of an inverse from part 1 but just as powerful.

Elda525d ago

TLOU2 story is really good. Like a rollercoaster ride.

If true, this is why Sony keeps making them. A lot of "gamers" might complain or cry about it. But as long as these things keep making money, they will keep doing it and ignore all those complaining online

neutralgamer199232d ago

You are absolutely correct end of fbe day money talks and so far their remastered/remakes have generated a lot of money

Lightning7732d ago

So y'all are more worried about a companies pockets than your own entertainment? Are you pretending to like the same game being re-realeased each year?

CosmicTurtle32d ago

Nobody said anything like this above.

S2Killinit32d ago

No that is not what they are saying. People want to play these games. But, We have a minority of people who think they speak for everyone.

Redemption-6432d ago

Da fuck are you talking about? When did I say or even imply that?

👆👆So said a CoD player 🤣

Edit: now I’m curious as to how the halo tv series affected the sales of the halo game 🤔

@cosmic That's pretty much implied. Keep doing the same thing because it makes the company money forget my entertainment as long as they get richer. Instead of demanding more. If this was anyone else there would be backlash and it would be real that's a fact.

In a nutshell yes that is good the game is getting more attention more than ever thanks to the show I understand and acknowledge that. I'm saying all it promotes is more re-releases and remasters from games that don't need it.

Chevalier32d ago

"I'm saying all it promotes is more re-releases and remasters from games that don't need it."

Nah this is just short sited idiocy. Remasters and re-releases are a thing because the cost of making games is out of hand.

Also a large portion of these sales are to completely new customers. Add in that it's very profitable as shown by these sales. So that's 3 solid reasons to do what they did.

anast32d ago

If true this means that game companies would need to make a successful mini-series for every remaster to pull these kinds of numbers.

Lightning7731d ago (Edited 31d ago )

"Allot of gamers my complain and cry" it's literally in your own freakin words kid... How come nobody can see.. It's n4g not the brightest ppl in the world after all. That much as always ring true.

"👆👆So said a CoD player 🤣"

I don't play COD. What are you talking about? Yeah idc about halo TV or anything like that.

"Nah this is just short sited idiocy.'

Says the number on guy in that category. More money in remasters means more remasters... Simple

Cool let's all pretend to get excited for another game that doesn't need a remaster. You freakin fanboys ruin everything with yalls corporate boot licking BS....

Will HBO make a season 3 without Sony? They did with Game of Thrones after all.

S2Killinit32d ago

Why would they make it without Sony?

Grilla32d ago

I thought part 2 was 2 seasons, seasons 2 and 3. Season 4 wouldn’t have any source material unless ND made part 3 by then.

88332d ago

SPOILER (sort of):

Season 2 did not come close to completing the story of the 2nd game...

StormSnooper32d ago

They will continue the story passed what was created for the games. Sony is the one making the series. Is it possible that the series goes in a new direction? Yeah. But who knows.

LucasRuinedChildhood32d ago (Edited 32d ago )

@StormSnooper

Neil Druckmann said in an interview with Colin Moriarty that they're not going beyond the story of TLOU2 for the show.

Relientk7732d ago

You definitely didn't watch the show. They split the 2nd game into two seasons. If you played the 2nd game it actually makes sense.

lukasmain32d ago

It will be 3 season for game 2. Ending after season 4

franwex31d ago

You’re correct. I saw the first season, but I lost interest in the second season. Not due to the controversy of the second game-I actually like it. Mostly due to not being in the mood for a downer of a show at the moment. But I’ll check it out later.

lukasmain32d ago

Game 2 will finish in the show by the time season 4 ends. And no, they won't go on after that. Not unless there is another game

MrNinosan31d ago

Season 2, 3 and 4 will cover The Last of Us Part 2.

And no, Sony and Neil will be there all the way.

This isn't an argument for the low-hanging fruit, but this here is exactly why Sony - and others - will keep producing them. Dev costs are low. Profitability is high. It's low risk, high reward. And given the skyrocketing costs in the AAA space, projects like this help fund future titles. I don't like it, and I'd much rather Sony - and others - release new titles, but I sure as hell understand why it happens.

anast32d ago

A mini-series had to be made for this to happen.

PhillyDonJawn32d ago

Whats the point of making new games when you can keep releasing old ones 😂 they keep buying so why not?

S2Killinit32d ago

Soooo all those people talking trash are pretty surprised eh?

Eonjay32d ago

They want to tell you what yo think, who to hate and what to buy.

Review - The Last of Us Part II: Remastered (PC) | WayTooManyGames

WTMG's Kyle Nicol: "The Last of Us Part II: Remastered is a beautiful mess. An ambitious title that had all the right ingredients, but didn’t always pan out the way it should. The excellent survival action gameplay that showcases humanity’s brutality is often let down by a story that is trying too much and has poor pacing. Thankfully, Part II’s debut on PC improves on the last game, making it the best place to play, even with its imperfections."

If the story is deeply flawed to the blogger and it's a story game, how does the blogger justify giving it a 9? A deep flaw is unacceptable in any part of the game. If everything else was perfect, it would be an 8 game. Deep flaws are foundational issues.

Let me help:

Graphics: 10

Sound: 10

Story: 8 (Overreliance on flashbacks. While the story beats are properly paced and the plot points are generally pacy, it tries to tell 2 stories at once, which led to a structural issue in the overall story, but despite this the message and mood are striking relevant.)

Gameplay: 8 (Turning in the game is awkward and it gets in the way or searching for stuff and the quick turn in combat doesn't feel intuitive.)

Overall: 9

PhillyDonJawn32d ago (Edited 32d ago )

How tf a game with 8 gameplay and 8 story get a 9 overall? Graphics and sound does not! Make up for that. Gameplay and story hold way more weight than graphics and sound.
