The Last of Us Part II

[antijoke]

Just unveiled at PlayStation Experience 2016.

Still in early development but they wanted to share it with us.

Oh boy, cannot wait, don't care when it is, day one.

Trailer:

 

[antijoke]

did they show anything?, missed the end of the show

Updated OP with trailer.

 

[antijoke]

But you don't know what the story is yet...

 

[antijoke]

Of course I don't and I'm not writing it off, I'm sure it'll still be great. Just saying TLOU doesn't need a sequel IMO.
Even the devs said it was supposed to be the end of Joel and Ellie's story as it was self-contained and tied everything up perfectly.
Most likely, they've been pressured by fans as they've also said they were thinking for a long time but couldn't come up with anything worthwhile and almost gave up. Not every game needs a sequel.

Druckman said theyd only do it if the story was worth telling.

I have 100% faith in them.

that the bit where that bloater is running after you too ? as well as everything else ? hardest bit of the game ! loved it though cant wait to see how this turns out and where the story goes...

They will never be able to top the 1st ones intro though

That's the gym section.

The bit they are talking about is the generator section, that's a real "**** just got real" moment.

 

[antijoke]

Looks amazing.

Cannot wait.

 

[antijoke]

Terrible video, 15 million subs as well, lol.

Gameplay trailer from E3

 

[antijoke]

Can’t wait, going to have to book the week off work I think.

 

[antijoke]

Wonder what the digital download size will be if it's on 2 Blu-rays.

109Gb

 

[antijoke]

Of what? Footage? The story?

The major plot spoiler of the game has leaked

apparently a ND employee who is annoyed over a pay dispute has leaked a whole heap of stuff.

Whether anyone's actively sought out this info or stumbled across it accidentally, please can we avoid alluding to anything about it at all? It only takes a few opinions or seemingly innocuous comments to start to build a picture in your mind of what happens.

yeah, even that post above yours is borderline to me IMHO

 

[antijoke]

I would watch this before pre-ordering , what were they thinking.....

Reported. You pillock

 

[antijoke]

Horrible working conditions, what exactly do they have to put up with sitting at a desk developing games, I have always been curious, when this has been mentioned in the past within game development. I know they may have to work long hours to meet dead lines.

you should educate yourself on the culture of games development at the top studios prior to launch, the crunch culture sounds absolutely horrific.

@Amatsubu can you please stop even hinting at the story.

 

[antijoke]

Sure, sorry for that. I'm just a bit miffed since TLoU is one of my favourite games. Well, it's not that far from release, people will be able to make up their own minds. Sorry again.

i get your miffed, and yes it’s not that long until release, then we can all discuss our feelings on the game.

Spoiler

I’m still excited to play it, despite the opinions I’ve seen of people who have read spoilers because it becomes all too apparent what happens.

 

[antijoke]

The 'reviews' will be positive because politics and feelings.

I've not counted on reviews in years now since it's all became politicized.

i haven’t paid attention to reviews for over a decade now lol

 

[antijoke]

I've watched the video mentioned above and the basic jist of it is that a very talented writer was thrown overboard in favour of pandering to the PC brigade with excessively in-your-face "woke" virtue signalling themes.

was that amy hennig who got thrown out?

 

[antijoke]

Nope. I meant Ashley not Amy my bad.

Little off topic but it's a shame Amy was also shafted over in Visceral games also and it was a Starwars game to boot!!!

there comes a time when you have to ask, am I the problem?

 

[antijoke]

Anyone else still up and playing now?
