The Last Of Us 2: Controversy or Critical Acclaim? ( PS4 )

[Andrew R]

First of all, I loved the first game. I have the second one pre-ordered.

I skimmed You Tube ( briefly ) and apparently there was a leak, the game is a complete atrocity etc. BUT...it's the internet. Is this all noise or is there a real problem with the game? Are you planning on buying it on the June 19th?

great metacritic score.

[Arvaos]

Days Gone is a fun game, similar scenario.

The original Last of Us still had moments of hope in a dystopian world that people of all creeds could relate to.

I haven’t played the second game, is the gameplay as fun as the first?

I haven’t played the second game but I hope the gameplay is fun.

haha
good luck with part 2 is total garbage

I prefer 7 Days to Die tbh.

Survivalist: Invisible Strain is also pretty good.

I have heard there are a few controversial scenes but the gameplay, art style, animations and cinematography are still highly rated by reviewers.

Yeah, but in a game that is mainly defined by story like TLOU, this is a very bad impression and it just make everything else around this game blows hard

They are working on a standalone mp mode which could be pretty legit

It's similar, but with better melee and smoother movements. Takedowns feel more raw and brutal. Occasionally, i could hear my enemy's last deep breath after i stab a knife on their chest.

Tlou2 is getting ME3 treatment where a few bad moments in the game spoils the overall quality of the game.

Game looks fabulous

No spoilers.

But TLOU 2 story and pacing pulled a Game of Thrones last season.

Some people didn't want to play the game after a cinematic, which basically makes you want to quit.

But everything else looks and feels good.

As far as im aware is that Last Of Us Part 1, is the only Last Of Us that exists, & there is no DLC for it... No Origins, just Part 1, & thats it...

A good storyteller knows when to end a story.

Druckmann isn't a good storyteller.

[Doomerang]

This is the last jedi all over again, where the access media completely blames the fans trying to keep eyes away from their lies.

I haven't gotten into the drama, but from what I gather:
the reason people dislike the game is because there's an "sjw character" who looks masculine.

There are multiple camps that dislike this game:

1. people who dislike politics in their games (they play to have fun)
2. people who dislike Joel's death
3. people who felt deceived by Naughty Dog (misleading trailers etc)
4. people who dislike being tokenized by Druckman
5. people who dislike ♥♥♥♥♥♥ gameplay (TOLU2 being called a walking simulator, boring combat etc)

There's probably more.

If that's the only reason adult people hate it, then that's just sad.
Especially if you're above age 30. I didn't expect that kind of behaviour

Apparently said "SJW character"'s model is based on a woman who is actually muscly.

Funny because ideological politics are usually used to create some form of conflict, especially in war and revolution games.

Honestly, the people who whined about politics in games are ones who wouldn't complain or even notice it if a game's political content or implication aligns with their opinion. I mean I play games for fun and to keep my mind off from the awful reality too but it's kind of ignorant to deny that games aren't political at times.
