Soon you will start claiming that it was an intellectual masterpiece misunderstood by casual gamers, or a brilliant satire on a modern clownworld. Of course you all were huge fans of it since day one, and obviously such a prestigious, contrarian and edgy videogame deserves a spot in the codex top 100
Codex hates only good games so nothing new.

Finally finished the game. It was a slog. The game drags on and on. Whenever I thought that it's finally the end, the game would continue again and again. In general, it's good that the game is lengthy but because the story and pacing are so bad, it just drags on.

You've already said everything there probably was to say about the story and the game in general. Being a fan of the first one I think Naught Dog people outdid themselves. They took everything we loved about the first game (which is by no measure perfect, but it was more than the sum of it's parts) and flushed it down the drain in the first 30 minutes of the game. Then, it's only worse and worse. When normies and youtube shills shit on a game, it must be bad. This is pretty much the GoT season 7-8 of gaming. A great way to kill a franchise.

The Mandalorian's actor Pedro Pascal has been cast as Joel in HBO's adaptation of Naughty Dog's The Last of Us, the Hollywood Reporter said.

The publication also revealed that Bella Ramsey has been chosen to play Ellie. The English actress is known for her role as Lyanna Mormont in Game of Thrones and for voicing the titular character of Netflix animated series Hilda.

They are also using GoT's actors.

Got his skull crushed in GoT by a hulking steroid beast
Maybe he will get his skull crushed in TLOA by a hulking steroid beast too

I hope he will be remembered as an actor who gets his skull crushed in every movie by roided villains. Cuz that would be funny. Kinda like Sean Bean dies in every movie meme.

So given my recent playthrough of TLOU2, I decided to take another shot at TLOU1 since it's been a few years since I last played it.

So far, I've finished first 2 chapters and oh boy. This is a much better game than the sequel on so many levels. And yes, I know, the overall idea with the vaxx doesn't make much sense, but that doesn't matter. It's good enough of a plot device to keep things going. The characters and dialogues are much, much better. Seeing how Joel and Ellie first meet and start building their relationship is just as cool as it was back when I first played it. It just works™. The gameplay loop is pretty much the same, but tighter levels and much better pacing (and in some instances, sense of urgency) make it a joy to play. Interactions between Joel and Ellie, trying to figure out what's next for them and a general sense of adventure help a lot too. Moreover, what I didn't remember, is that the world outside QZ is basically uncharted grounds not just for Ellie but also for Joel. They both learn (including from each other) and cross boundaries they have not crossed before.

The above stands in complete contrast to the sequel where I'm forced to go on a lame revenge quest, do things I never wanted to do. The story, locations and pacing are so bad it was a complete slog to play. To make things worse, I am then forced to play the roided woman and care about her and her friends after they've been made unredeemable in the first 30 minutes of the game. There's too much to cover it's such a shit show with so many nonsensical plot points. And then, at the very end, after the game FORCED me to do all kinds of fucked up shit that I never wanted to do but had no other choice, the game has the audacity to try and sell me some kind of moral lesson that violence is bad mkay? What the fuck? BTW, they even made Tommy unlikeable in the lesbian home scene. He shows up as a bitter and pathetic cripple who still seeks further revenge, when in the previous scene (before abby showed up at the cinema) he called it even with Abby, saying that it's time to go home.

How can so many things go so wrong?

Cuckmann found out that not everyone is enjoying his diarrhea and now he is trolling people on twitter, like an insecure little bitch.

It's unbelievable but this trainwreck is still rolling.







TLDR:

Neil Cuckmann is so insecure that he wants to destroy Bruce Straley legacy. He must make Tlou more shitty than Tlou2 hence he will remake The Last of US with an emasculated Joel.

Sony killed Days Gone 2 for some Uncharted game. Bend Studio asked to be taken off the project because nobody wants to work for a company with 70% turnover.

Sony retardation just lost them this generation of consoles. The fuck happened with this company.

The remake is brilliant. TLoU on PS5, TLoU2 remade on PS6 and so on. This'll be the longest running franchise with only two entries ever.

Fucking abysmal strategy from Sony tbh, if MS nails a wider portfolio of smaller titles with greater variety & creativity, they could really gain some ground this generation. Sony's gains were enormous back in the PS1/2 days with its huge library and developers weren't afraid to take risks, it was a great time with mid-tier games actually existing, lol.

As for this shitshow, Last of Us doesn't need a remake, but I'm sure they won't miss this important opportunity to inject some new "Ellie was a lesbian all along guys, see, see!" material into the main game, rather than just the dlc. What a joke, remaking a game that just got a remaster last gen. Ah well, the whole thing will implode in time.

seems like it would be financially smarter to spread development cost over a couple dozen AA games and hope a few become a hit rather than lumping a massive budget on the next movie-game title

Shame, Days Gone was a wholesome game, well, if you remove the parts of excessive murdering and zombies murdering people... and yeah well, the apocalypse in general of course.

I can completely understand Days Gone not getting a sequel due to production issues and reception. For years I saw it at trade shows and I was surprised it still hadn't come out, and when it finally did, people barely talked about it except how generic and souless it was. I can't understand them throwing more money at TLoU though.

According to the co-director, it's because we're too cheap.

So, I hated TLOU1 gameplay and dropped it after 5 hours or so. Will I like TLOU2?

Tlou2 is a completely different game. You will love it.
If you're lying to me, I'll hack your account and publicize your photos of Crispy naked you faggot.

Oh, there is a lot that I want to talk about with Neil but I'll save that for another day with a review I plan on making for NMA after I make my review for the Frontier. One of the things I will talk about is Neil's creepy hebephilia. It is quite clear to me, after seeing the DLC for the first TLoU that Neil is a hebephile. He has an unnatural attraction to young girls. Amy Henning was creeped out by Neil wanting to explore the sexuality of a 14 year old girl and her disagreement with Neil over this caused her to lose her job at Naughty Dog. Then there was of course him wanting to explore the transgenderism of another 12-14 year old girl. There is also of course his creepy attraction to Laura Bailey and how he insisted that he perform the motion capture sex scene with her and how he has TWICE made her voice his fetish waifus for him.

It looks like Bruce Straley had enough with idiots trying to discredit him.
