Was it good?
Yes, but it wasn't the Citizen Kane of gaming.
My Fifa/cod friend is trying to sell it to me. He said 'it's like a movie you can control', as his highest praise.
One of the best games of last gen for sure.
I have a ps3 and never played it, don't really care to anyway
Why? Because its a mediocre tps with cool story, not worth the time desu
Yes. A 10/10? Fuck no. Citizen Kane of gaming? Fuck no. But it's a solid 8/10 game with much more gameplay than people think it has.
Nah it's edgy as fuck and the ending is just ridiculously bad
How the fuck did Joel not die from his injury oh right he's jesus and the girl's a surgeon with all the medical stuff they need
>>320149383
How do you know that? You never played it.
>>320149893

Can you explain how without resorting to memes or buzzwords?
Pretty fun but way overrated by pretentious critics
The multiplayer was pretty cool, my old roommates and I actually set up a Last of Us tourney at our college's vidya club.

Why is TLOU the edgy thing in an image with Mad Max and The Road?
Have you watched either of those movies?
>>320148524
i think it was good in most ways apart of the actual gameplay
just walking places and shooting things then setting up a latter isnt very fun. otherwise it was a good game. joel was a very human character, and probably the core reason why i like the game.
>>320148524
Easily has the most poignant story in gaming. Sure it's the most complex, but the pacing and the extremely fleshed out characters make it just that.
As for gameplay, it's really fun. It's nothing new or boner-inducing, but it's fun and feels pretty good. The stealth isn't perfect, but feels pretty badass at the same time.
Honestly, just play it for the story. It's more than worth a play through for that.
I don't know why /v/ hates it so much, but then again /v/ needs to hate on everything that's genuinely good.

So why are there so many niggers + the underage girl nigger romance? And even a addon with a nigger girl?
TLoU is the Starcraft for its genre in vidya.
Starcraft did nothing amazing short of making tighter gameplay in an established gaming formula, great art and characters people remember, and a cliché yet gripping story that kept you playing. There was little to no innovation yet it went on to become huge.
TLoU did the same thing for the action third person shooter. It's an excellent example of playing it safe done right.
>>320150980
What in the hell are you talking about?
Tess dies.
The two black guys die.
Marlene and her merry band of rebels are all incompetent retards that die.
The gay guy, Bill, is a fucking paranoid loner who lives alone in a booby-trapped city muttering to himself.
Ellie isn't even shown to be gay in the vanilla game. She does absolutely nothing to indicate a sexual orientation. And she's a white girl.
What was tumblr about it?
>>320151461
TLoU delivered tighter gameplay than max payne? Binary Domain? Vanquish?
>>320151375
Why are there so many black people who all die?
And the black girl romance is in the add on, you fucking retard, not in the base game.
I'm starting to think your opinion is made up of /v/ threads that bash the game.
There are only 4 enemy types and every single fight sans the sniper part are the same. Hide behind a box and shoot
It's also one of my favorite games of all time
>>320151375
>nigger nigger nigger
Oh okay, nevermind. You're not worth arguing with.
>>320151561
Tess is in the game

What has this do with "they die" you are completely autistic they are a part of the game and story, it doesn't change anything if they die or not they story is written by kekold pedo tumblr faggots
Solid 8.5/10.
Campaign is a grittier Uncharted, which is about the best you can expect. People always say it's a movie game, but it does have real-time crafting, inventory management and healing, so take that as you will. There is some freedom in the level design, and at higher difficulties its very important to explore. The core mechanics of shooting feel impact enough, and the melee is downright brutal. The major downsides for me are the inconsistent A.I. and very slow start to the campaign.
However the game really shines in its multiplayer. It's one of the few games where the importance of stealth and cover actually maintains itself in the online mode and it makes for a very tense experience.
>>320151863

This game had amazingly beautiful interiors.
10/10
>>320151646
Generally speaking? I have no clue.
Financially speaking? TLoU made more money than those three combined, so your opinion is invalid.
>>320151973
Stay mad nigger the is game bad and for edgy kekold pedo tumblr faggots
>>320150886
Biker gangs that go around raping people and the hero's final vigilante moment being giving a guy a hacksaw to mutilate himself or burn to death/explode is way "edgier" than anything in TLoU.
If we're talking Mad Max 2, since that's actually the one where he has a dog, we still again have biker raider gangs who tell people to peacefully surrender before running them down and brutally murdering them.
It's not actually that edgy, but neither is TLOU. I just can't see how you look at TLOU, Mad Max, and The Road and say TLOU is the edgy one.
>>320151863
>Because there are minorities and women in the game, no matter how incompetent or stupid or evil they may be, the game is tumblr
Jesus Christ.
Poor, often retarded ally AI and sometimes stupid enemy AI are its biggest faults.
>>320148524
I watched an LP of it because I didn't have a PS3.
Then I bought a PS4 and got the Remastered edition.
I love that shit.
Played it non-stop until MGSV came out, and now I still return to TLOU every now and then.
>>320152121
That's no argument at all
>>320152198
I still don't think there's anything edgy for a movie portraying a post apocalyptic scenario, and I wasn't the guy calling TLoU edgy, I was just curious about Max Mel
>>320152038
Why would you write WELL WHY IS THERE A NIGGER ROMANCE IN THE GAME? ALSO A NIGGER GIRL ADDED IN THE ADD-ON?
Do you mean to intentionally sound like you're a fucking moron? Why would you fucking separate those two thoughts?
I mean you are actually upset about black people being present in a game, and shouting TUMBLR TUMBLR TUMBLR, so you must be a retard.

>>320152438
Like I said, they're not particularly edgy. They're all post-apocalyptic stories with measured amounts of barbarism. "Edgy" is a fucking retarded word that people spout when they don't actually have any idea what they dislike about something and or incapable of articulating it, so they just brand it "edgy" and think it works.
Next to those other two movies, TLOU is incredibly tame with regards to how dark or brutal it is. Especially The Road, where the entire movie is soaked through with hopelessness and brutality with the main characters' main means of defense being a gun they intended to kill themselves with.
>>320148524
the multiplayer was 10/10
>>320152850
>thats not the fucking point the point is the game is edgy as fuck and badly written and the shitty repetitive gameplay won't make it better
That has literally nothing to do with me asking why someone said, "the story is tumblr trash."
>>320148524
Yes, it's good. The critics overrated it, as they tend to do with AAA western games, but it was still a very good game regardless. I'm not too keen on them making a sequel though.

Again, you talking about edgy the game is has nothing to do with why the game's story is "tumblr shit," unless you're implying that tumblr is known for their edginess. In that case, you would just sound silly and be mixing up your /v/ opinions.
>>320148524
Yes. One of the best, if not THE BEST, ever made.
I almost never play a game more than once. I beat TLoU six times and still occasionally play the online MP to this day.
>>320148524
No. It's really not worth playing. Intro sequence was amazing but you quickly ended up carrying ladders around and boring yourself to death.

>the ending is bad
Grade-schooler detected. TLoU has one of the best endings a video game has ever had.
Incidentally, it also has the best/least obnoxious/most realistic gay characters in all of video games.
>>320153365
LOL. This is so mean.
>>320148524
I didn't play it but you should NEVER trust /v/'s opinion on a non-Nintendo console exclusive.
>>320153542
>Grade-schooler detected. TLoU has one of the best endings a video game has ever had.
Sure if you wear a fedora and watch anime.
>>320148524
Just a shame about the ending really, that lets it down
GOTY 2013, stay mad, faggots
In closing, I understand that's it's cool to be a contrarian /v/irgin faggot, but when you claim "the most awarded game in the history of the industry" is "shit", there's a very good chance you're simply objectively wrong.
>>320148524
A great ending would have been when Joel just died from his injury and the girl would have been raped/killed 2bh.
I loved it, I'd give it 9,5/10.
My first playthrough on Normal was very good, story itself was alright, but storytelling goat, and locations even goater, probably best "zombie" postapo settings. Gameplay and mechanics were great, but the game was bit easy.
My second playthrough on Survival (hardest in base game, there's Grounded dlc difficulty that I haven't played) was absolutely fantastic. The wallhack sneak mode was gone, almost zero ammo, you had to scavage fucking everything and also manage your inventory and health, for example choosing to craft either medkit or molotov. I died lots of time but I was almost never annoyed by it. I also already knew the game mechanics pretty good so basically it was actually survival game, if not horror.
And multiplayer. Oh, multiplayer. I expected it to be filler shit that I'l play for two afternoons and never return to it again, but I actually played at least 20 mp "campaigns". Great gameplay, focus on teamwork and so many fantastic things such as managing your survivors or collecting materials and parts.
So, it probably isn't Citizen Kane of vidya, but definitely one of my favourite videogames of 7th gen and even in general.
Oh and cutscenes were fine, it was the fucking walking sequences that really fucked the game into meme zone.
>those people that think Joel did the wrong thing at the end
>>320150240
I get awkward watching these. Like when David is perving out on Ellie, and the girls are getting freaked out, I'm kind of perving out on them.

>>320154040

So did I. Crazy how it's still one of the best online TPS games ever made. I played MGO for a week or two before it made me go start a new online TLoU MP campaign and play that instead.
>>320154076
>le joel did nothing wrong meme
>>320154162
Okay, a actual good/decent is edgy for the weeaboo fedora neckbeards makes sense
The best game on the PS3, and one of the greatest from last gen. Period.
You faggots love to argue that reviewers are biased and all, and granted, that probably would've been the case had it been just a few of them giving the game a perfect score, but it wasn't. It fucking wasn't. Nearly every single fucking site/reviewer gave it a 10/10. And when they didn't, it was either a 9/10 or an 8 worst case scenario. Pic related.
Very few games have been praised as much as TLOU, and for good reason. One of the few titles that had me emotionally invested from start to finish.
>>320151012
I never said its 10/10 or the best game I've ever played. Is it in my top 10? yes. But no it's not the best gaming has to offer...in fact I don't even know what that would be.

I don't really play modern mp games, usually just few days orwhatever in required for trophies, but I play TLoU to this day. I'm hoping they'll release remaster in PS+, I'd really like it on PS4 just for multiplayer but I'm not paying for the same game twice.

I'm willing to concede the point that some reviewers are paid off for some reviews.
But when the entire fucking industry throws 240 GOTYs and more 10/10s at a game than I've ever seen in my life, you could be forgiven for assuming that, I don't know, the game is ACTUALLY that fucking excellent.

Vidya aren't made to be quality products, they're made to be just good enough to get teenagers to convince mom to buy it and penniless uni-students to forego eating a meal for some hours of fun. Sales are a definite measure of quality if the point is to sell something of the least quality possible to make money.
Vidya is about escapism. That's it. What money businesses make is icing on the cake for them

>>320148524
The black girl romance was pretty stupid. But yea, the game is great.
>>320155017
Making the product's quality meaningless. Thanks for proving my point
The writing and acting is, for a video game, pretty much high tier. Some of the sequences like the intro and the winter part with David are fantastic and there are moments like the encounter with the giraffes that are really great too. By the end I was getting really tired of the wonky stealth gameplay but overall it's well worth playing.
Is anyone else fine that Naughty Dog went with the MATURE ADVENTURE shit and dropped Jak and Daxter? That series was shit after the first and I'm glad they put it to bed. As long as R&C is around I'm good.
>>320155219

At the very least, let's ask an important question, since we all know we'll get a TLoU2. Would you rather play:
>Sequel as older Ellie going on an adventure to find a cure when she finds out Joel was lying (maybe he tells her on his deathbed)
or
>Prequel as young Joel and Tommy in their unsavory bandit days (how did you know about the ambush Joel? / "I've been on both sides of 'em.")
>>320152589
How was joel a pedo?
How was elle gonna save humanity if the fireflies can't even hold resources to do research? They couldnt even get basic findings.
You are an aautistic faggot
Its pretty good.
Gameplay is kinda arse, with the camera being very loose which makes tracking and headshotting zombies very difficult compared to other games with well-calibrated shooter controls where itd be trivial.
Clicker sections are dogshit. They stop being scary/tense two deaths into the very first clusterfuck of them, and then they go ahead and keep throwing you into housefulls of the shits, horribly mistaking "wait for the patrols while moving at the speed of anal seepage" for "great monster design". Its a garbage enemy all the way up until you get the shotgun and theyre weirdly fond of throwing them everywhere.
On the plus side, the environments are nice and pretty (in the remaster especially) and do look like the real world, while showing some decent creativity in level design. Some of the best tension and uncertainty in the game comes from sections where you're set up for what has all the video game level design queues for an impending ambush... and then nothing happens.
The opening sequence was VERY good even if it blew its load way too early.
The fact that the characters have world-building and character-developing dialog along the way that is both well-written and well-delivered is refreshing. Even if you dont like the characters themselves, the interplay between them is dynamic enough to be entertaining and tell small stories along the way.
Overall a strong 7.5/10 very much worth playing, but goddamn is it overhyped.
>>24977758
It was ok. Highly overrated though.
>>320153542
>TLoU has one of the best endings a video game has ever had.
The ending felt very generic and something that most people probably saw coming from a mile away.
Got it as part of a PS4 bundle and probably would have never bought it otherwise. Played it on grounded and shit was intense (fuck those clickers). I was expecting multiplayer to be mediocre but it's probably the most fun I have had in a multiplayer game.

what are you so mad anyway? and why are you still browsing /v/ if you hate it here so much?
>>320155601
Anything popular v hates.
>>320155585
Nice rebuttal
>>320160103
K but explain how it was the wrong choice?
>>320160489
I don't think it was the wrong choice, I'm mocking people who say it is because their argument basically boils down to "my feelings"
>>320160489
Crap i quoted myself. Ment for
>>320155702
I love how most PCkeks would agree the first season of TellTale's WalkingDead was a pretty good character development driven story-based game
But then they criticize TLoU for the exact same thing, even though it has actual gameplay added on top of itand very good multiplayer but no one, including me, cares about that
But no, it must live up to dragonsdogma/monsterhunter/Thief/DeusEx levels of deep combat, stealth and RPG mechanics otherwise it's shit
>>320148524
It was solid but forgettable and didn't take any risks. Like the Witcher 3 of it's year.
>>320160489

>>320148524
I really liked it, and I can understand why some people don't like it as well. But I seriously have a problem, I've beaten this game 3 times and I just might play it again
>>320159917
>review was inconsistent
A 7.5 is totally in line with what he summed up you dipshit.
He said its solid but suffers from skme flaws that keep it from being perfect 10/10 goty, but nothing fatally awful that makes it worth avoiding.
75% of the way to perfection is still great if youre not the kind of retard that applies American grade scaling to everything (75 isnt 3/4 of total perfection, its a C).
Just leave.
>>320160817
>>320160024
I think most would argue that "sacrificing a possible cure for the life of one person" is very selfish and "wrong".
But if we were talking about MY daughter, I would've done the exact same as Joel. I can't just sit there and watch my fucking daughter die when they cut open her head. And if any of you say otherwise, you're either lying, have zero empathy, or I guess just have a really shitty family.
So again, Joel was "wrong". And I would've done the same thing in a heartbeat.
>>320160741
>Thief
>deep combat
It's a 7/10.
Half the game is force walking without no interaction at all and boring ladder segments. The other half is mid-tier stealth with braindead AI.
>>320160880
I feel you. I've beaten it twice on every difficulty and I still feel like I could play it again on any given weekend. Not even counting the multiplayer.
>>320160753
out of curiosity, what would you consider a "risk" in a videogame?
>>320149040
>movie you can control
Has he never heard if MGS?
>>320160967
Why even bother replying to him?
>>320161401
not him but I consider "risk" to be dangerous design choices which would possibly stunt sales
like master chief barely being playable in Halo 5 despite it being part of the main series
>>320160967
>75% of the way to perfection is still great
sorry, anon. I guess this is where our opinions differ. A 7.5 for me doesn't warrant a "worth playing". Guess I'll pass on the game.
>>320161728
don't then
It was alright. I honestly vastly prefer the Uncharted series but that seems to be an unpopular opinion, most people seem to prefer TLoU or hate both.
Aside from the fact that I pretty much loathe zombie apocalypse shit at this point but love Indiana Jones pulpy adventure shit, Uncharted just has faster, more dynamic gameplay in singleplayer, some very good encounter design in 2 and 3, and doesn't abuse the forced walking sequence or long quiet times to allow for plot as heavily as TLoU does (although the beginning of 3 is a bit much in that regard).
>>320161861
Don't pass on the game?
>>320161120
But thats where i see he wasn't wrong because it would have been a fruitless waste.
>>320161579
TLoU is full of dangerous design choices that are much riskier than playing as a character that isn't the main character of the series. Constantly ammo starving the player, female character as the lead on the boxart, one of the villains is a cannibal child rapist. By all accounts these were internally unpopular decisions made by the developers.
>>320162010
>doesn't warrant a ''worth playing''
>don't play it then
>>320162010
don't mind him, he can only post reaction pictures whilst also appearing to be semi-retarded
>>320162074
>constantly ammo starving the player
condemned, call of cthulhu
>female character as the lead on the boxart
underage mysoginist detected
>one of the villains is a cannibal child rapist
mad max had worse in 2015
>>320162145
Okay but why are you telling him not to play it if he doesn't plan on playing it in the first place? Or not to pass on it?
>>320161728
The fact that numbers are so subjective and held to such wildly different brackets of what constitutes quality is probably why that person took the time to type out their experience with it, rather than dropping a number and abandoning ship without qualifying the score.
>>320162390
because why not, sperg?
>>320162478
Why not both or why not play?
Yeah, was pretty good, not a 10/10, but definitely a high 7 or low 8.
>>320162521
fuck are you trying to tell me sperg
>>320162605
I'm just fucking with you, you kept replying so I figured why not.
>>320162420
I won't argue any further as it delves into the territory of semantics and subjectivity, although I do see your point.
I will say, however, the closing statements ruined what I thought was actually a pretty good review.
>>320162709
pretty good then
>>320149040
>game with cutscenes is automatically a movie
Is final fantasy 7 also a movie you can control?
>>320148524
Single player
>Pretty good
Multiplayer
>Godlike
>>320162376
Condemned and CoC aren't exactly good examples that ammo starving is a popular and good decision, considering that they sold poorly and weren't well reviewed.
>>320162915
Are you implying that the game wasn't lauded as a great cinematic experience and even compared to Citizen Kane?
>>320163010
They have a cult following that can bring up a better argument than sales though
So nice try mister misogynist
>>320148524
>Was it good?
Yes. Not as good as everyone made it out to be, but yes.
>>320162983
/thread
>>320163086
The media called it those things, but it factually has less cutscenes than an mgs or modern final fantasy game.
Why aren't those lauded as great cinematic experiences?
>>320148524
Yes. Not "hurr 10/10" but it isn't "HURR MOVIE 0/10" like parrots here like to say.
>>320163452
No idea, I just told you a factual fact, that the game is often compared to a movie by the people that praise it
>>320160741
The difference being that The Walking Dead is basically a VN whereas TLoU tries to be a "game" in the more conventional sense and does a pretty boring job of it. When you've got a whole game where EVERY SINGLE PUZZLE is solved by "find the ladder/bin/pallet and put it in the right place" then you know you've basically fucked up.
If TWD was built around a mediocre tps framework then it would get the same criticisms here as TLoU. But please, do continue to use completely irreverent, apples and oranges comparisons so that we can easily identify you, making it easier for us to ignore you in future.
>>320152553
So you DO have autism.
The combat or evasion of it is good, but too scarce. You spend upwards of 60% of your playtime walking and moving ladders and pallets. The story was alright at best and character outcomes were predictable.
Multiplayer is great though, because like I said the combat is pretty good. Pay2win weapons killed it though
>>320153906
>In conclusion, I understand that is cool to be a /reddit/ normie bandwagoner, but when you claim "the most average game in the history of the industry" is "great", theres a very good chance that your simple wrong.
>>320163715
I think the platforming puzzles were designed to be easy to give the player something to do while the characters talk to eachother, which is a far better compromise than just characters talking while walking forward.
Alternatively they were made easy because in real life there are no such thing as contrived platforming puzzles, you simply move objects like you would in real life to get to higher places.
>>320164587
Its bad so its realistic
>>320153542
>Young girl experiments kisses her friend.
I seen this all through middle school and in college they are all sucking 20 dicks a week.
>>320165126
and the game is grounded in reality so it makes sense as a design choice.
Compromising your setting for the sake of puzzles would be a very dumb thing to do.
>>320151863
Bill is /k/ incarnate.
>>320163715
>When you've got a whole game where EVERY SINGLE PUZZLE
The puzzles were meant to be filler though since it was more to get you to explore and have exposition with whatever characters you were traveling with at the time.
Also, TWD's puzzles are really fucking garbage and insulting to my intelligence. TWD2 was much better in that regard by basically removing them.
>>320166348
I really liked the puzzles in TWD ep1. That one where you use the pillow to break open the car window was brilliant and tense.
>>320163549
Ah, ok.
>>320148524
Would work great as a movie, but I didn't like it as a game.
Great charatcers, damn good artwork, enjoyable gameplay, decent acting. Story is OK, a little pedestrian perhaps.
Yeah 9/10. Great game.
>>320164073
The combat is good (or at least challenging), until you discover the Z-targeting option in the settings. Then you realize that it's artificial difficulty at its finest.
Every mushroom zombie I met had a decent chance of killing me, and I had barely made any progress. It was frustrating as shit, but fun.
And then I discovered Auto-Aim, and I finished it by the end of the week.
