Naughty Dog Responds to the Last of Us Part II Leaks (this is NOT a spoiler thread)

Besides crawling the entire game and shooting what's so great about tlous gameplay?
The game while feeling weighty feel tight and responsive with its shooting, the gunplay feels solid along with great animations that sell the action. It leaves you with a hide and seek gameplay esp if you take off listen mode that makes gameplay tense but fun. Also its a third person game in a while where the crafting felt good but not overbearing but vital for sections of the game
 
I did love the characters and story, but aye.
Getting a Cliff notes overview from an annoyed twat trying to ruin it for thousands is a million miles away from playing it, and investing in it as it progresses.

Exactly. I'll reserve my judgement of the game until after I play it in it's entirety.
 
Because most people are man babies and cant handle a different point of view of perspective. Who care, im not for the alphabet mafia all the time but I sure as well am going to play the game and most likely enjoy the fuck out of it. What people dont realise is when they say "I dont want politics in my games!!!" Dont realise games they love have politics in it, but just ones the agree with. How many times have I ever seen star wars fans say "the nee movies demonize white men".....have the seen episodes 4/5/6... lol I suggest you dont watch those then either.

I completely agree with you things change with that some games will change too. It's not that serious to me either I play games for enjoyment. As a Black man I didn't like the N Bomb being dropped in Mafia? I was like damn that's crazy but it was the creators vision and it didn't stop my enjoyment of that game. People need to learn that the world doesn't revolve around your views and just move on if you don't like it fine, but please don't fault someone else who does
 
The anti-woke tribe is crazy, just play the game and enjoy it or hate it afterwards.
Don't judge a book by its cover and do not judge me by my tits.
Shiz, I am woke lol
 
Lmao except it will score higher and sell more copies, you can take that comment to the bank
Of course it will...the SJW loving journalists are gonna eat this story up. The user score on the other hand will probably be just as low, maybe even lower since this game has no multiplayer to lift itself up like Halo 5 did.

Yep, I feel that people who complain the most are just yelling at clouds. Im not going to limit my life of experiences because I may not agree with something 100%. Life is all about perspective and yes while being uncormfortable sometimes its best to leave our shell just to experience something new.

Or maybe just think of this...... it will score well because it has good gameplay and story. The fact you think every gaming journalist supports "SJW" agendas is moronic, everyone has different points of view and personal politics, but grown ups can put that aside and judge media for what it is and if its good at what it does.

Its like other ND games, great graphics and animations but shallow gameplay. No skill tree, no decent upgrades, tlou is cover and shoot and loot and cutscenes
 
For those who read the leaks. Is it good?

Never cared much for the first one. I love Uncharted but could never get into TLOU.

Tory Baker said the game will make us "question everything."

Sadly, people think it's a terrible story without actually playing the game. There are things in the story you have to experience yourself because reading a few notes about the story is not going to be enough.

People questioned Joel's decision after The Last of Us 1, but if people just read a small summary of the game, they would think the entire journey was pointless.

I don't think it's bad and I think people are just being really sensitive because they're too focused on politics on very minor details of the game. The plot sounds good, but I also have to experience it myself just to see how I really feel about it.

That legit is the excuse for every third person or even first person shooter. Hide, pop, shoot, loot. Welcome to generations of gaming where most of the good ideas and innovations happened decades ago with shooters.
 
I personally believe the game will be good played TLOU 4 times twice on ps3 and twice on ps3 plus the multiplayer was the closest I got to Socom still in this generation, with that coming later I have no confidence that Naughty Dog would completely fuck it up they are too talented of a studio for them to do that..

PS: Not many people seemed to have an issue with Lost Legacy including me. It seems like some are working against ND in general

YOU HAD ONE FUCKING JOB, DUCKMANN!!
AND YOU COULDN'T EVEN DO THAT CORRECTLY, YAH DICK!! 🖕 :messenger_pouting:

LMAO have you been living under a rock or are you completely oblivious to the current state of gaming journalism?
 

"Heartbroken for the team"???? Are you f*cking kidding me???

After YEARS of crunch after Unchardted 4, terrible management, and delayed payments to the staff, it was obvious that more than someone within the company was going to snap... and it happened.

Druckmann has no one to blame but himself. If you push a worker to the brink of its sanity and also delay its bonuses, you get what just happened. Heck, that's why almost 70% of Naughty Dog non-lead developers quitted within the last 2 years.

Oh Im aware, do you have a tin foil hat and though and think every agrees with certain agendas etc. Just because you think they agree with it doesnt make it so. The loudest ones who are the minority will support whatever they want and what I also said as grown ups, we and they as professionals can put their own politics and biases aside and judge a media format whether its good or bad for its actual qualities and not who you think it panders to
 
Couldn't help myself. I read the spoilers.
Absolute trash story.
Glad I know now. I can just forget about it and move on with my life.

Druckmann also bullied Amy Henning out of Naughty Dog afaik. Damn, I miss her work.
 
The issue with story-centric games is that once people know the story, that's it. There's no replayability except for achievements. No one is out here buying Last of Us for the gameplay.

It's a bit funny to see such a game robbed of what little value it had, having its entire (terrible) story revealed months before launch.
TLU1 gameplay is excellent and the online mp is amazing in my opinion.

I bought TLU1 mostly for the gameplay and sometimes I still play the mp.


For me TLU 1 is great and I don't give a shit about the story and characters.

She's so good at her job that one project had to fall in another directors lap to be "saved" and then a publisher out right cancelling the next thing she worked on.....great work output....
 
Both the gameplay and story in part 1 are excellent, but the story is what made it special. Cuckmann just decided to take an enormous dump on it. It's all good though. GoT comes out a month later.

You think their professional and able to put their political agenda aside XD. I'm done lmao. Which outlets specifically are you giving all this credit to, I wanna know the names of these big gaming outlets that are this professional so I know which websites to visit.

God the multiplayer was god tier. I seriously thought it was going to be a throw away, but it was a mix of socom and uncharted that I needed.

The last game was for EA and their approach to Star Wars games was mind-blowingly terrible.

And then what happened to Uncharted 4 then as well....you think Druckmann wanted that shit handed to him whilst wanting to work on part 2...? Also with a side step of battlefront 2 its vastly improved also Jedi Fallen Order was ace as well. Maybe its not them, maybe its her and her vision which may not have been good.

It's an interesting conversation about spoiler culture. I actually like reading about spoilers before I see a movie or play a game. It doesn't ruin it for me, in fact I get more out of it because I see nuances and foreshadowing that I never would since I rarely play games twice.
 
I'm still buying the Game of The Generation

You won't regret it. Try to get the GOTY edition if you can. I think it's out of print now but you can still pick it up pretty cheap on fleabay. Pretty sure the standard edition was on PS+ at one point.

Regardless of the version you end up getting you're in for a real treat, because Bloodborne is an absolute masterpiece of a game and a fine ambassador for the medium as a whole.

Definitely the game of the gen.
 
What I find really amusing here is a lot of known X fans suddenly will not buy a tent pole Sony exclusive game lol.
I really feel for X fans, what lack of exclusives do them. Imagine TLOU2 and GOT both AAA games coming out and they have to make do with Bleeding Edge, yikes!
 
Not a huge fan of serious games, but it sounds like another moderately talented studio head pushing an agenda that is currency in the social and professional circles he lives in.

Oh, stop it. It's a lover's (or family member) revenge story in a post-apocalypse. It's been done a hundred times. The fact that you think this is somehow different just because Ellie's gay tells me just how illogical you're being.
There's another layer to this people are pissed about. There's no way to elaborate farther than that without spoilers. I genuinely hope you enjoy it, but what I've seen has put me off anything Druckmann heads.

This guy has some fucking ego! Difficult time? It's a fucking video game, mate.

Maybe you should pay your employees next time so this type of shit doesn't happen. Also, don't write a shit story about identity politics.

One more thing..... get fucked!

Sincerely,


Everyone.

How is this an ego when he is telling US that we have gone through a difficult time?

There are far more difficult and concerning things happening in the world at the moment. He also has the nerve to say it'll be worth the wait..... when we know the story is truly awful.

This guy will be the end of Naughty Dog.

There is, but there's also people who are disappointed about being spoiled. You guys are just nitpicking at this point.
 
Honest question. How many years have you been forced to watch " SJW bull crap" ? Did some one physically strap you to a chair and say you must watch Will and Grace? Heres a revelation minorities, women, people like watching storys about them. Guess what sometimes people watch movies about other cultures to learn more about them or maybe its just a good movie. You picked 2 movies that didnt do well, and didnt mention all the others that did good, amazing numbers.

What? No one forces you to watch anything. I like movies and games, if most of them are following a stupid trend to push some idiotic ideology, like what i mention, of course i will get annoyed as many others. What the f are you talking about? Please try to write more compelling arguments, because what you wrote doesnt make any sense.

What if you like soccer for example, but it turns out instead of streaming male soccer, which is far more exciting than female soccer according to most people, networks start streaming mostly female soccer just to "level" the amount of female and male soccer is streamed, wouldnt you be annoyed, as most of the audience? Most people prefer male soccer, but just to push an agenda of a few, we have to watch female soccer. And thats why these type of movies fail as well as games. Just look at the backlash mortal kombat 11 got because of the retarded "we respect women so no short clothes for them, but for males is fine"... i dont get how can you not see how insane and idiotic this type of thinking is. People, mostly in the US, are being brainwashed by the political left, and most people know this, identity politics is the cancer that is destroying the entertainment industry, and now the focus is not making better movies and games but how can we make this movie respectful and diverse, IT IS INSANE, PEOPLE JUST WANT TO FORGET THEIR PROBLEMS AND HAVE FUN NOT WORRY ABOUT HOW MANY BLACK PEOPLE IS IN THE MOVIE. Think about it and analyze what im saying, use your brain.

Look at this https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/the_twilight_zone_2019, 71% approval which is great (certified fresh according to them), out of 86 critics, compared to 5.6 (which is horrible for a recent TV show) at imdb which compiles peoples opinions. Now this a perfect example of the insanity that the "entertainment critics" want to push, or think is good entertainment. This series, by the "sane people", is horrible, but you see according to these insane critics is a good TV show. Now you asked why the think is great. Well according to all metrics, its full of these insane SJW ideas, of diversity, representation of minorities, which MOST people dont care.

This is what people complain about, and most of us are tired of this crap and are aware of whats happening, and well keep complaining about it, because it doesnt make sense, and it only leads to crap games and movies.

Make a "good movie/game" first, dont try to make an inclusive/diverse/respectful movie or game first. Thats why the go woke go broke saying most of the time applies, because making a good product should come first, before making an statement of how "good" you are.

Another example is "Us" https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/us_2019. According to the critics is almost a masterpiece... well is one of the most pretentious movies of the last decade, as well of course an SJW product. And to prove my point, watch the audience score, FAR from a masterpiece the critics are telling us.

ND haters told me months ago that they didn't care about the story and that they wanted great gameplay.

Now they're telling me that they won't play the game because the story sucks. :messenger_grinning_sweat:

Lol I like it but TLOU Part II will likely surpass it

This game will elevate Naughty Dog even more

Crash Bandicoot
Uncharted 2
Uncharted 3
Uncharted 4
Lost Legacy
TLOU

TLOU 2 will sell 16+ million just like Uncharted 4
