There are videos of "Abby vs Ellie" but it's just Abby and Ellie getting pummeled by some Schwarzenegger level woman? So they think the other character is Abby? Idk what I'm missing in the video. I've seen the plot summary with the ending.

Yeah they could have just made the game about a firefly or some poo poo for a new perspective and leave the old characters out of it. Idk even have Joel get dead when you fight him in a boss battle or whatever since he's a pretty wild rear end in a top hat all up and then call it a day.

It's the same game but he's added lens flare to everything and Joel can't stop farting.

fridge corn posted:I had been planning to pick this game up maybe a year out after release at a good discount but after reading these leaks I probably won't even bother. I'll pay 50% of the purchase price if you get it day one and provide a brief 1000 word fridge corn take on each chapter in the PS4 thread.

MeatwadIsGod posted:Subtlety is generally overrated imo. Look at Death Stranding. Incredibly blunt with the added benefit of all its gameplay systems reinforcing its themes at every possible opportunity. A character literally says "here, I brought you a metaphor" and it rules. It was interesting watching Parasite not long after DS. A character in that directly refers to an object as a metaphor. It's also blunt as gently caress and rules.

Stux posted:remember when romero films used zombies as just a backdrop to whatever else he wanted to talk about at the time and one involves a bunch of scientists and high level military people all of supposed above average intelligence in a secure situation eventually killing themselves with zombies out of stupidity. Yeah. This is the same reason I really like science fiction stories with strong characters and human stories. It's fun to see developed characters in situations that are beyond reckoning.

CharlieFoxtrot posted:I hope that reasoning behind the leak is true. It would also shut up the folks that were like "Think of Naughty Dog, this only hurts everyone, direct action is too extreme" It seems likely given their treatment of others. Is it disrespectful to the other developers and workers that care about it? Probably. Is it an awful terrible action? Nah.

i must compose posted:I don't get why people are hating on last of us I thought it was fun the story was alright. I don't understand what Joel did that makes him a bad guy except he like says he did some bad stuff? He is only ever really shown killing people in self defense except the end. He admits that before the story he was a highwayman.

I played through TLOU when it released and I still think the ending was a good moral dilemma and that it was a well made game, but I also had to force myself to finish the game which I don't think is praise.

These people live in small groups. Some in large groups. If they're organised and live in some level of safety why wouldn't you train your body?

I only played it once but that's still clear enough in my memory. Yeah that's like the only reason the game's ending had any punch lol

blackguy32 posted:This happens I found with a lot of media. People find reasons to excuse a lot of awful stuff as long as it is the protagonist doing it. Because you empathise with them. The setting for this game and other stuff isn't exactly day to day living so when you've got some background and understanding of them you get it. I like it when media gets you understanding protagonist and antagonist. I don't think this will deliver, but if they can get you on side for Ellie and Abby where you don't want either to win it'll be big time good story.

Since there are not really zombies concerning people in this one is the world recovered to some extent? I don't mean back to sanity since there are mad cults or whatever, but are people far more organised than say the starting town of TLOU1 which was pretty good as far as living in the apocalypse goes. That gym does look pretty fancy but I thought all the previews showed Ellie at a nice prom type deal or a dance. It seems like the only truly lovely places are in between settlements, while the settlements themselves are pretty well set up with power and amenities.

He may be very mellow in the sequel, if to drive home the fact that people who go on murder sprees can seem like nice people later if you give them enough time. Yeah the Ellie is bad too angles don't land for me because she was just a result of the poo poo situation. But that's everyone!

Lt Jon Kavanaugh posted:Obviously it was a huge sales hit but I'm still surprised people on video games forum about videogames are excited about spending $60 USD for a game that is 25% occasional QTEs, 'stealth' sections, and simplistic puzzles and 75% watching schlock that would make a CBS procedural look like Shakespeare. Because big budget experience games like this aren't that frequent and straight up horror games even less so.
