Borrowed this off a mate the other day and I’m about 7 hours into it. Loving it so far as much as the first. Excellent in depth story (so far) as expected.

I remember hearing that one (Or two) of the voice actors got death threats about something but I didn’t read into it because i didn’t want plot ruined. Can’t wait to see what annoyed so many. 2 big things have happened so maybe it’s that but I can’t see how it would drive anyone to death threats unless they are just weirdos. Although one is sad, it’s just part of story and development, I kinda knew it would happen. Well, tbh I had a hunch about the other thing but that’s fine in my book.


Below are spoilers on those 2 things

Spoiler

•Ellie’s gay which a) could see coming (had a hunch) and b) is absolutely fine in my book - maybe that’s upset the weird homophobes

•Joel’s dead - I see this happening to help create a good story. It was bound to happen. It was brutal and a really sad scene/ moment but it kinda had to happen as development and produce a decent revenge story. Surprised he didn’t die in the first if I’m honest .
I can see that annoying those weird serious fans who send death threats and get annoyed when a author kills off their favourite character but it’s just a story. Was obvious it would happen in this game.

I’ve just stared the part where it’s a flash back to 3 years ago on Ellie’s birthday so I’m no further than that

you like it so far? damn, you need help
the really bad part is coming

I know I'm late to the party but just completed this, a bit of back story;

I had the first game on the PS3 from launch but it came at a time where I was falling out of interest with gaming so never really played it (my OCD had made gaming difficult so if I didn't do something perfect I'd replay the section over and over again until I got it right and obviously replaying the same bit over and over again became boring so yeah I stopped gaming). Despite this my wife got me a PS4 and I got the remastered edition on that as well but again never really played it until last year...

PS5 hype got to me around that consoles launch so I started playing through all my old PS4 games including TLOU so I've been in the lucky position of being able to play both games back to back (bar a quick break to play through Mile Morales) and have absolutely loved both. Honestly I can't separate them, both absolute masterpieces and because I've played both back to back I'm absolutely gutted I don't have a third to start playing straight away

Really hope Naught Dog do do a third (though at their current pace it'll probably be towards the end of the PS5's life cycle )

Can totally relate to the OCD thing... I have to explore every inch of each level, and if I accidentally progress to a point where I can't get back to an area I hadn't checked out, then I have to reload the last checkpoint or even the entire level lol.

Glad to hear you enjoyed both games anyway, just as I did. Also great to hear you're back into gaming, as I also am now. I actually have TLOU2 to thank for reigniting my love for it... played through some other amazing games following on from that and haven't looked back since!

The completionist OCD is why I also don't start a lot of games When I see it takes 200 hours to fully complete a game it really puts it off for me lol.

Altho' since Sony changed their PSN App and the trophies don't pop up in your face when you open the app I felt a little bit better about this..

Saw that the other day and downloaded the update yesterday, I've only ever played TLOU2 on the PS5 anyway so not sure how big a difference this patch is actually going to make...

part 2 sucks

 

[Thoth]

I played it on PS4 Pro and it looked great as it was so really curious if I will notice the differences myself. Might give it another go when I catch up with current titles.. think I stopped playing it on Permadeath somewhere before encountering the Seraphites.

part 2 sucks
