avatar! | 1,988 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 No spoilers here. That said, apparently things at Naughty Dog are not, shall we say, rosy. https://www.cbr.com/last-of-us-ii-big-leak-turning-point-developers-crunch/ Fans of the franchise who have seen the leaks have expressed their distaste all over the web, with much of the criticism aimed at the shocking, even upsetting plot twists that were revealed. However, the leaks have also shined a light on Naughty Dog's harmful work environment, as the leaker is rumored to be a disgruntled former employee who spoiled the unfinished game out of spite. LoU2 is supposed to be released in about a month. We'll see if it's any good. I really enjoyed parts of the original Last of Us, but thought as a whole the game was very overrated.

jonebone | 1,336 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Last of Us Remasters was the reason I bought a PS4 Pro to experience game in 4k / HDR. I thoroughly enjoyed that game, I would even call it pretty epic in the way that it wove an amazing story and combat was satisfying. Mix in the stealth and I was pretty addicted on that one from start to finish. This is probably a must play for me even if it falls short of expectations based on the first. Time will tell.

avatar! | 1,988 Posted June 19, 2020 Author Share Posted June 19, 2020 Sheesh, there appears to be a massive campaign against the game. I haven't played it yet, so I'm keeping an open mind. If someone here has played the game, please post some non-spoiler thoughts.

Boosted52405 | 178 Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Oh wow, this is out today?!?!?! Oh man I'm with Jone, I played this on PS4 and had a straight blast. I've heard this one may not be as good, and there are some emotional twists involved, but I might just have to curbside this bad boy at Target after work...

What I want to know is on its own merit, how is the game?

What I want to know is on its own merit, how is the game? I played the first game but I didn’t finish it and I don’t remember a whole lot about it. I generally don’t like games like this where ammo is limited but I tried playing this one below the normal setting which I think is “light” or something like that and I have found it to be a better experience. Granted ammo and supplies are still limited and you need to scavenge every corner to make sure you are equipped. I like the skill tree progression and I’m not seeing any branches I would find useless although stealth combat is huge in this game so focusing on that branch made sense (you need to find magazines throughout the world that unlock certain branches as you only start with one) The infected enemies are downright retarded most of the time but the human enemies with guns never miss which is annoying The story is pretty run of mill revenge plot and I haven’t yet made it to where you switch the playable character later in the game but I’m close. all in all it’s nothing you haven’t seen before but it’s gorgeous to look at and polished 7-8/10. If you aren’t dying to play it wait for a price drop.
