I've never had to wait that long for a loaded save to be ready to play. There's something wrong there, bud.
I have the same drive. Initial boot was about 2 minutes and all the rest have been about 30 seconds. Something's up.

Did I just encounter a weird glitch?
Spoilers for last part of the game
In the underground tunnel just before you reach the hospital, there's this section where you walk over a bunch of vehicles because there's a current below. It's where eventually Joel slips and you wake up in the hospital.
I just accidently fell down a bus into the water and I was dragged by the current against another bus. I can't swim back because of the water force and there is no way to climb on this bus I'm pushed against. Seems like an odd glitch and I'll probably have to restart the encounter... I'm on grounded though and I'm really scared that restarting will put me back to the place with all the bloaters
just restard last checkpoint. after the last encounter you should be good. it happened to me as well
Awesome, thanks! Just did that and it put me back on top of the container! So relieved!
Weird that they made it like that.

It's the smoothness of the camera. I'm not entirely sure if it's an optical illusion but it legitimately feels faster to my eyes. 30fps is some horrible thick molasses
Can't play the first half of TLoU's Winterwithout Syrio Forel's voice in my head. "If you pierce them, the water runs out, and they die ". Arya vs Ellie, who would win?
The part in the game that made me think of Syrio Forel was
When you were making your way through the hotel and you get to the kitchen and the two hunters kill the one clicker. "Did it bite you?" "Not today, what about you?" "Not today"

To add to the technical oddities, is anybody else having issue with dialogue from the surround speakers, or any speaker other than the center channel, sounding echo'y? Indoors or out, the character sounds like they're talking inside a tin can.
Center channel sounds fine.
I messed with the audio settings but nothing seemed to help.

There is a way to get up from that spot, just go as far to the left and swim upwards. Then you just climb up onto the bus. Swimming up from anywhere else is not possible as the current pushes you back. Its not a glitch

Great, glad you got it sorted!
Really?! Man I thought I really tried everything in there. Luckily I didn't lose any progress with restarting or else I would really regret not reading your post sooner lol.There is a way to get up from that spot, just go as far to the left and swim upwards.

Sadly, my sentiments exactly.
Alright
im about to break something
WHY CANT I STEALTH KILL IN SURVIVOR?! the runners break free EVERY TIME !! Before I could choke them out earlier in the game and now that I have progressed I CANT KILL THEM !
I grab them like normal, attempt a choke out then they break free !!!! MY GOD !!! HELP !!!
....yes...they are not clickers.

Thanks! But I just remembered you can't open all the shiv doors on grounded since there's not enough supplies. And IIRC there's plenty of parts/pills inside shiv doors you otherwise would miss on grounded. So looks like I'm playing on normal to get all the shiv doors and enjoying the casual play through.
Could you guys tell us how far in you exactly are?

For platinum is it recommended to go through on easy first for all collectables? Already completed the game on PS3.

I feel the difficulty more important to tell the truth when it comes to enjoying the game .
Is that right?
I don't remember the PS3 version looking like that at this part
Looks terrible
Yep this part need something done to it .
Easy should be your collectable run, whether you want to run it first or not is up to you. I did normal for my collectable run for no particular reason.

Seems like the great debates about the ending are gonna start flaring up again soon. I remember when people started finishing it originally and there was lots of discussion about what goes down. Fun times

Yup this part is definitely different than the ps3 version. I had the exact same thing. Whether intentional or a bug it doesn't look good. The Museum was also super dark when I remember it being rather light when I played on my ps3 too. Added to the tension though I guess not being able to see shit!

And on the sixth day the LORD David Bowie created man and woman in His image. And he saw that it was good. On the seventh day the LORD created videogames so that He might take the bloody day off for once.
That is pretty weird. Are you pressing square after grabbing them? Forgive the dumb question, but I honestly don't know what else it could be besides a rare glitch.

Literally just went through here and yup, it's fucked.
Seems like some PS3-specific effects in that area didn't get ported over or are broken. It looked foul and was really difficult to see anything.
Thanks (and thanks KJ as well) - I think I previously just hit my PS button and did a "go into standby" which maybe that caused it? I just did a proper save, (I'm in a basement, there's a generator and it's getting rather occupied with uglies at the moment) and then quit to menu. See if that makes a difference.
For the sake of comparison, my save file is showing as 11MB. Is that similar to what you guys are seeing?
Thanks - have a good weekend!
Wait.
If I somehow forgot to stealth kill roughly 50% into the game I am going to loose it.
I don't remember having to hit square. I thought its just triangle then triangle again to shiv. if you don't its just a choke out?
Got it digitally and no percentage. Guess it's the disc version. PS3 version was quite long from what I remember. Loadings are really fast.
In any case, I barely played it on PS3 and right now I'm way ahead of my original playthrough. Playing with headphobes (Gold Headset)...and Ellie tends to surprise me more than the clickers. She trying to whistle, sing, etc...or suddenly appearing next to you.
Just finished my first run, now on to survival+.
For those of you that just finished the game for the first time, did it live up to your expectations after all the hype we gave you? I'm curious to see if anyone was let down. This is my third time and I'm just as blown away as the first time. This really is one if the best games ever made, and probably the best narrative ever put into the medium IMO.

You have to hit square otherwise you would be forced to use a shiv if it's triangle triangle.

Yeah, square for physical takedown, triangle for shiv. Otherwise they break free.
Since there's no button prompts on Survivor, I guess it's possible to forget that command sometimes. Especially if you haven't done it in a while.
Finished Left Behind. I thought it was great. Naughty Dog made a good decision in interweaving the cinematic, narratively purposed pieces in between the shooting segments...perhaps even better than they did in the main campaign.
Really heartwarming little vignette. Gives Ellie some nice color.

man, fuck the
oh, and the conversations/jokes seem to be just as bugged as on ps3. had to repeat the
to get ellie to tell the 2nd set of jokes. and it looks like i´ll have to get the conversation about
on my plus run, since the prompt didn´t pop up in 3 separate tries. :/
hotel basement! i played through tlou 3 times on ps3, and i had it somehow in my mind that those stalkers ALWAYS spawned after you pick up the keycard. today they spawned way earlier (after i tried to open the keycard door without the keycard). and it was horrible (i´m pretty much out of ammo now). the final stalker that came screaming after me after i had outrun the bloater was enough to make me stop for the night. made it out of there at least.

whole bookstore encounter (didn´t mind too much, since it´s one of my favourites)

Same. Just played through that part a couple hours ago.
Kind of a disappointing port really.... but I'm still glad to be able to play the game again, since I sold my PS3 awhile ago.
Honestly I hate the noise stalkers make. Makes me wish I wasn't wearing headphones.

It really is a nice supplement to the main story. It helps flesh out a lot of Ellie's decisions and characteristics from the main game in a more tangible way. I also appreciated how experimental the game design felt at times.

Holy shit you people weren't kidding about gamma issues. Some parts turn my plasma into a shitty LCD TV and fiddling with video output didn't do squat either.

Just got to this part last night. Freakin weird when the green filter kicked in instantly instead of fading in.
I think this was talked about earlier but there is some weird issues with the gamma going in and out. Can't tell if its a bug with photomode, since I use it practically every 4 minutes I play. lol
Edit: oh lol someone mentioned it above
I smiled at all of the little things you do with Riley.
The Halloween store, the car window game, the arcade bit, the super soaker fight.

YES. I remember bringing this up before it released and AKyemeni said the following to me:
To me, it was a complete, spongy, orange mess. I'm not sure what the issue is in terms of code, but this is one of a few things actually worse about the PS4 release.
