Okay, so I'm in the sewer pipe and I have no idea what to do.
To clarify, I'm in a room with a generator across the water, a gate to my right, and Sam, Ellie, and Henry all just looking across the water not saying a darn thing. I can't reach the generator, I can't open the gate, and I can't find a ladder, a plank, a raft or anything anywhere that I can do. HALP.

This game is an exercise in stressing me the hell out.

hint
try underwater?
I looked. All I could find was
some tunnels that were blocked by gates and a firefly pendant. I must be blind or something because I am entirely lost.
By the gate that you can't raise, there should be a pipe that you can pull out and then Henry will raise the gate

Spoiler for those who haven't gotten past 50% of the game yet - Holy crap the voice actor for
just steals the scene in this motion capture.

I should rewatch Deadwood again...
Don't give up, you'll feel good about yourself.

Bah. Don't know what I'm supposed to do when I have almost no ammo and am supposed to kill a dozen dudes. :/

11 hours in. Man this game just keeps getting better and better. There's no way it can keep this up for much longer.

plenty of people, including myself, have beaten the game on hard. why not sneak around and take them out one by one? throw bricks and shit around to distract them.

Sniper area, with Sam and Henry in the Suburbs.
Now I feel like a bad person.
Haha, I hope not. It shouldn't at least, as I did have to do some AP-like editing to get what I wanted in that quote.

Just wondering, does anyone know how New Game Plus "Plus" works?
If I go down a difficulty in New Game Plus, am I locked out of higher difficulties if I try to play it again if I try to continue from that file?

Alright so now that I'm back on my PC I can edit/tag shit better so I think I'm on the last leg of story
Also getting vibes of that very very first teaser trailer of the game
the whole David v Ellie thing and now reached Salt Lake City ND knows how to paint a picture man that view of the giraffes and the city...

Some similar plot, sure. But I actually cared for the characters in TLoU.

A little under halfway (like 47%) with ~10 hours played so far. About an hour into
I don't think it's a stretch to say that unless I run into some crazy annoying sections of the game, or straight up broken mechanics, this is the best thing Naughty Dog has done. The human encounters have gone up another notch. Really fun.
Don't. Separating the kills from brutality of the violence and looking at it purely in terms of the feedback you get from the gameplay, the game's execution is absolutely satisfying.

I get Half-Life 2 more than anything. From the tenements at the beginning to the authoritarian government, to makeshift labs and facilities in areas of the countryside that look straight out of it. The 'zombies' are people with a parasite controlling them. You've even got the small town inhabited by a weird guy and a load of booby traps.

Kind of considering this as well, though I'm only about 6 hours in. I've been dying a ton and I'm starting to feel like it's taking me out of the game atmosphere a little bit.

Just had a moment in the game where the music(listening through my surround sound headphones) was so intense, coupled with the general atmosphere, that I literally wanted to turn the game off, which never happens to me.
Damn, this game man.

Damn it, this game scares the hell out of me! I've played similar games but they felt corny. TLOU feels as real as I would imagine it to be in these situations. The darkness, the sense of dread, the horrible sounds the infected make, it all wears on my nerves like no other game I've played. I'm super early in the game, only in the
level, and I keep playing in 10 or 15 minute chunks because that's all I can take and then I load up Littile Big Planet 2 to clear my head--Lol! Naughty Dog has achieved something masterful here.

The controls in this game are great. I really like the idea of R1 being the reload button for guns. It just works really well!

Man, I'm loving this game so far.
I did come to one thing I loathe though:
That aside, DAMN this game is good so far.

The bloaters are so stupid. It's like they took the Lazarevich fight from U2 and made it a semi-normal enemy. Just run away and take pot shots until it's dead. WTF.

I'm about to make an assault on the bridge with that guy and his bro.
I'm at ~68% now, I think. Game has really been constantly picking up, and man the amount of detail in all of the art is simply staggering.
I am kinda surprised at just how many people the game has been throwing at me. That aspect still feels extremely hokey and videogamey, but I enjoy the combat much more than uncharted so I'll deal with it.

you are not ready for Survivor mode

I think early game is just challenging in general when you don't have a whole lot to work with and you're still getting acclimated to the mechanics and stuff. I thought about dropping the difficulty to normal when I got stuck for a while at the first encounter with infected, and i've been stuck like that a couple times since, but i'm glad I didn't because I feel like I have a much better grasp of the game now. It became a lot easier to deal with when I got a few more weapons, and eventually a better understanding of what all my options were for a given encounter and how to get through them. I definitely did have that same feeling of being taken out of the game through dying many times or restarting encounters, but I think it was worth it in the end. I really can't wait to play NG+ now, and eventually do survivor mode
