The Last of Us Part II announced

Joel is dead.

Ellie is hunting the Fireflies because they killed him (in retaliation for what happened in TLOU).

She's singing because Joel used to sing to her and music was a thing between them.

Quote me on it.

already had that theory

I assume it's that or in this post apocalyptic world ellie found love and her partner was killed by the fireflies and shes going for some revenge and joel isn't dead (or he died a long time before)
 
I'm not gonna lie, TLOU's combat was only a bit above mediocre. But I never cared because the story and the characters were so damn good. I'd welcome better combat, but I don't care as long as the story stays solid. Honestly, TLOU is the ONLY game that has a story so good that I prioritize it over gameplay.

TLOU has one of the best combat in any TPS
 
When Ellie finds out and feels responsible for everyone dying because they came looking for her? She thinks its over with the fireflies.

It's been years. I just assumed it was a new story of some kind

The best parts of TLOU were when you played as Ellie, that's when it finally played like a survival game.


Joel was the self insert power fantasy so killing that would be bothersome for a lot of people. They couldn't kill Drake but they're gonna punish the shit out of Joel. Make it brutal ND.

Nah. I preferred Joel's rough and tough gameplay. His brutal melee is not something they can do with Ellie and I loved beating the shit out of people with bricks

I'm curious if we'll have female enemies to kill. It'd be nice to really diversify the enemies in that regard

ND needs to actually deliver on their original promise of dynamic enemy AI.

You wanna go with a woman who has these hands.

One night live scene, not this.
Oh ok.
 
People are going to be in for a shock when they remember they can't swing across chasms with ropes and climb up waterfalls in TLOU and instead have to deal with God awful enemy design to top it off.

Like UC4 was finally an Uncharted game with great gunplay, cool level design and no bullet sponges and TLOU 2 is coming here to fuck things up again. Boy oh boy can't wait to toss my rope and platforming skills in for crouch walking and hilarious bullet sponges!

Who knows, maybe Naughty Dog will surprise me and create a zombie game with actually engaging zombie enemies this time. Or maybe they'll double down on brain dead puzzles like the first game and terrible pacing like UC4 and Left Behind. Who knows!

What? I mean.... what? Are you drunk? Or crazy?
 
Just curious why they did call it The Last Of Us Part II and not The Last Of Us 2 (something similar to Half-Life 2 episodes or Final Fantasy XIII sequels)? Maybe because they are still starring the same characters from the first game and that one day they will do a TLOU2 with newer characters.

He explained that, he said he wanted both games to combine in a way to tell a big story instead of this being a typical sequel.

The Last of Us Too
 
Any sort of information at all. This exact scene that we just saw today was filmed that long ago. Luckily no one involved with the making of that let anything slip whatsoever in the last year and a half.

There was an artwork with Teen Ellie playing a guitar though

Everyone thought it was fan made tho

We were surprised it stayed under wraps for this long. We were really nervous.

Lots of interesting discussion and things to clarify here - but we're keeping quiet until we start to show more. Sorry! :)
 
Hope at the end of the game Elle is killed by some other character that has more reason to kill than her or something

they should do that with some NPC where you see their story along the way

need more games where there's a revenge story but the main character still gets fucked in the end
 
I'll be pretty disappointed if they just have Ellie go through a similar arc that Joel did. Seems like too obvious an angle.

Honestly, I'm kinda disappointed they're even continuing the story at all since I think The Last of Us is a god damn great singular story.
 
Don't know if anybody has noticed it yet but the damn pegheads moved ever so slightly when she tunes her guitar. Amazing.

Edit: Also the string vibrations looked real.
 
Is that true? I am not watching it.
He was talking aboit how Joel sees her as an equal now and how they had to think about how they will show that when they are interacting in the game together.

Edit: I was mistaken. He was actually talking about the pittsburg part of the first game. Mu bad.
 
Yoooo what?!
What part of the post confused you?

Did you think TLOU had engaging puzzles? Did you think the laughable bloaters was good enemy design? Did you think the most effective strategy to dealing with Clickers was to slowly crouch walk around them engaging?

It also isn't hugely controversial to state that UC4 has serious pacing issues.
