[3 hour lunch]

Cripes, lots of gushing over this game. As someone who doesn't play much anymore and has been slogging through RE6 at a snails pace; could I even get through this game? Is there an 'easy' setting? Bioshock Infinite was going to be my next purchase but pretty intrigued by this now. I never really do this but I may have to put RE6 aside for awhile.

 

[flysack]

Now in Spring.

Anyone else think this was cool as hell -

Spoiler

Petting the giraffe. I thought for sure a hunter was going to knock me out or grab Ellie, but no, it was a true spring moment. Very well played in contrast to the rest of the misery

Also, I saw this coming since Summer -

Spoiler

They want to kill Ellie to get the vaccine. Right now I'm working my way through the hospital, trying to find Ellie.

My prediction for the end: he finds her and she tells him she wants to sacrifice herself for the vaccine. Touching moment. Joel gets gunned down by mistake even though he agrees because I just don't see Joel living through this. He has to die. The guy can't go back to being a cynical smuggler or live alone in Tommy's town. He's rushing toward death.

Yes, there is an easy setting. I started on normal and, while challenging at points, it's nothing that I can't overcome. And you'll find it's actually best to take your time with this game for the drama, horror, and story alone.

I highly recommend this. And this is coming from a guy whose PS3 was, for the most part, collecting dust before I got this.

 

[IvanKaramazov]

Finished it up today. Not sure how I feel about the ending.

Spoiler

I think Ellie was willing to give her life for the cure, and I think a cure was important enough that it would have been worth her sacrifice. His lying to her and taking away her option for what I feel are purely his own selfish reasons, well, I didn't care for that. I would have definitely chosen to give her the option to give her life for the cause had it been present. I'm quite disappointed it wasn't. I honestly believe the ONLY reason for a lack of choice is due to Naughty Dog's plan for a sequel, which I think kind of sucks.

Spoiler

I loved the ending. It was bleak and firmly established Joel as an anti-hero. l'm a sucker for stuff like that. Almost every video game ever made, other than games like Pong and Pac-Man, involve the hero saving the world at the end of the game. It's refreshing to see a story that goes the other way.

Also, Naughty Dog has already said that if there's a sequel, it most likely won't involve Joel and Ellie.

Spoiler

I appreciate them not including an option to sway the ending. I think its perfect the way it is and I don't believe Joel's intentions were as selfish as they appeared.

By saving her life, he is giving her the opportunity to realize, given time, that her life is worth more than a cure. He doesn't believe she is mature enough to make that kind of decision yet. Ellie's short life has been tragic, living in captivity, always in danger. All her friends died and she was taken in by a firefly, who convinced her it was her duty to save the world - not a hard thing to do when you think you have nothing left.

There was no guarantee it would ever work, it comes down to ethics.

 

[flysack]

Just finished it. Phenomenal ending. Loved everything about it, even though...well, I won't bother spelling it out.

Anyone interested in online play?

You form clans that you link up with friends.

Spoiler

I chose the Fireflies clan. Pm me for my ps3 name. Find me and join up.

Yea, you whiffed on the ending. If you read my spoiler after you were done, you saw my take. I guess I am in the minority on not caring for the way it turned out. But that's ok. A story that poignant should have some differing opinions.What is online play about? I admittedly haven't looked at it at all. In fact, until I saw it mentioned here, I really didn't even realize it had online play. I generally don't care about that stuff.

 

[Brady Marino]

I'm down for online. Don't have a headset, though.

 

[Brady Marino]

Finished just now.

Spoiler

Decent ending, if not a bit predictable. Definitely left me wanting more, which I know will be a long, long wait because that's how video games are.

As for the almost assured sequel, they almost have to go with Joel/Ellie again. It'd be like Rocky II being shown through the eyes of Apollo Creed or some other boxer. You got attached to Rocky in the 1st movie and you want to see what he does in the 2nd. Same goes for Joel/Ellie.

Overall, I was damn glad I got to enjoy this experience. Challenging enough when it needed to be, but still satisfying when you overcome...like in the end when I realized I can't just mow down all the Firefly soldiers because they just keep respawning.

I want to put in another plug for this guy's videos. I just completely stealthed the area where right after you're shot off your horse (Winter), and I got through it without killing a soul. Obviously you're not going to want to watch these if you haven't beaten the game yet, but once you get into your second run and think that "there ought to be some way to get through this without causing the 101st Airborne to spawn," these are extremely helpful.

I'm not sure what this says about me but I don't even have the game and I've watched all 20 of these over the past few days. Now I don't need to play it I guess.

I do this all the time with games with film elements or whenever I just don't have the money to throw at a game. I never played heavy rain, but I watched my favorite youtube personalities play through it, saved me 60 bucks and I was more entertained than if I had played it myself.

 

[Maik Jeaunz]

not gonna read the whole thread because I don't want to spoil anything. but I just started the Fall chapter, and man, the end of Summer was rough...even though I knew something like that would be coming.

the story, atmosphere, and voice acting is all top notch. I don't know how much replayability it will have, but I'm enjoying it at least this one time through.

I do it too, because the gameplay elements of these games are what I'm least interested in. I don't want the hard work to see the story. I think, however, that this is the first time I thought the story I watched really surpassed the confines of the genre.

My own thoughts on the ending.

Spoiler

I don't even consider Joel an anti-hero for his actions at the end. Put simply, the world isn't really worth saving. The most horrific and dystopic aspects of the world have nothing to do with the infected, per se, but rather with what the struggle for survival has done to humanity itself. I don't get the sense that some vaccine would instantly restore a stable functioning society after 20 years of complete social breakdown. So while I'm sure that Joel hasn't told himself this yet, I don't think that humanity can be saved until Joel and Ellie can help each other learn to be human again. Joel sacrifices human-kind for his own humanity (and the game strongly suggests that Ellie knows this and chooses to accept the lie on the same terms). That's what makes the ending moving, IMO.

Taking the creators at their word, I agree that Joel and Ellie's journey should be over. That doesn't mean that Ellie herself couldn't be the heroine of a sequel. If fast forward 7-10 years, Ellie is in her 20s and Joel is in 60s in a world where aging probably wouldn't be that graceful. It could be Ellie mission, only after having spent her teens in a loving, supportive community, to then complete her hero's journey.

Throw a bottle through the first window or at least near it. Wait till a couple Clickers are around and then molotov them. You can get rid of three or four with one molotov. Good luck.

Was messing around with a second playthrough last night. First molotov took out four plus a runner. Only left one wandering. He was easy to take out. Amazing. The first time, I was ready to give up the safe and just sneak through without fighting. Second time, took like two minutes.

Just restarted on Survivor. Moving very slow. Covering every inch of ground I can. Should be fun.

There's a map in the hideout I believe which gives it's location. Never had time to look for it the first run through. Plus, I find maps in this game of little use. I can rarely figure out what's what on them.Edit: Went and watched a video. I missed it this time too. Don't think I can get back to it's location.

Cripes, lots of gushing over this game. As someone who doesn't play much anymore and has been slogging through RE6 at a snails pace; could I even get through this game? Is there an 'easy' setting? Bioshock Infinite was going to be my next purchase but pretty intrigued by this now. I never really do this but I may have to put RE6 aside for awhile.

Do both if you can. Bioshock was a great game... but not as deep as The Last of us. If you can fit both, bioshock is great... they helped revolutionize the buddy-system. The Last of us took another step. Both are better then alot of games released in the past three years, but that's a different thread.

 

[belljr]

dont think this is a spoiler, i got so ####### lost in that hotel.... kept going in circles

 

[Mario Kart]

Got through the restaurant earlier today. Only took me two times before I got him this time. I was more aggressive and took a chance and the triangle showed up and knifed him. I wasn't timid the first time but I wasn't sure how much room you have to knife him. He does stand around and you don't have to "sneak" up on him... you just have to crouch to get him. Good times.

 

[TxBuckeye]

I was on my second run through but decided to take a break. Playing it back to back, the thrill and excitement of the story is sort of lost. So taking a Dark Souls break for now.

 

[belljr]

8 hours 50% in, sound about right?

just met up with the black guy and kid after getting buy the assault tank

BTW - for someone that wants you to be quiet - Bill is a noisy *******.

Bow and arrow is money for sneak attacks !!!

I didn't fully realize this until my Survivor run, but you can basically run around and let Bill kill most of the guys you encounter when he's with you. He's about the most poorly-trained shotgun-wielder in the history of warfare, but he will eventually kill infected for you.

That graveyard with all the clickers? Yeah, I just plain old dashed right through that. I had to run around a little at the end while Bill took his sweet time dealing with the last clicker, but it was cake.

 

[belljr]

i didnt have problems in the graveyard too much but yeah he did help eventually

[belljr]

i reached winter, im a little emotional right now

 

[IvanKaramazov]

Some of the segments that I thought would be hard as hell on Survivor have actually been pretty straightforward. I'm halfway through winter, and while it did take me a couple of tries to clear the two "tough" sequences (if you've gotten that far, you know the two I'm talking about), neither was anywhere near as tough as I thought they would be.

I think your first playthrough of this game is automatically going to be the hardest. Once you learn the layout of each area and get the hang of stealth, you can sneak through practically everything. I've used a grand total of one health kit (besides the one you're forced to use in the beginning) because health is irrelevant if you're avoiding combat all the time. Supplies in general, especially shiv materials, are really scarce though. I actually to pass up a shiv door because I didn't have the materials to open it despite never shiving any enemies in the entire game so far.

 

[belljr]

Finished last night. Overall a good game. Had a few spots where I felt the checkpoint was back too far.

I really struggled on the last big fight of the game.

so dumb question

he lied to her right? It was lat and I was exhausted but I had to finish ..lol

Spoiler

From what Joel knows and what the others knew, yes, he lied to Ellie. As far as we know she is the only one to be immune.

It took 20 years but the world, at least America, seemed to be very unorganized and desolate. Obviously, I can only say that based on what we were shown but that is a lot of land and people to go so unorganized. Then again, we have never gone through something like that so maybe 20 years is the right amount of time.

Spoiler

Yep, he lied. And I agree with the others who have argued that Ellie sort of knows that he's lying. I'm still firmly of the opinion that this is the best story in a video game ever. I'm sure folks are able to point to some obscure title out there that may be in the same league at TLoU in terms of narrative, but I personally haven't seen anything that measures up to this one. That includes Bioshock and the Mass Effect franchise, although I understand that ME is going for something much larger in scope and so that makes it an apples and oranges thing to some degree.

I dipped my toes into the multiplayer today. I think it's one of those things where I like it because I want to spend more time in this world as opposed to liking it because it's good in its own right. It's fun, but I can't see this even rising to the level of Uncharted 2 or Uncharted 3 right now One thing I will say is that they did a good job making the MP have the same general feel of the SP. But really if this game had shipped without MP nobody would have missed it.

 

[Mario Kart]

Last I checked, after going through it a second time... I had collected 111 out of 141 artifacts. Not sure what I am missing since I have checked most places.

The one area that I did not thoroughly check was when Joel and Bill push the truck for Ellie to start. There are ~6 houses that can be checked out but I did not go through them. I am sure there is a comic in there and maybe a letter or two but not sure what else could be spread out in that area.

I found 121 without really trying to hard on my first playthrough. Did you go off and search when you walked through the woods with Ellie? There was some stuff near a sewer grate in that area. Did you search Ellie's room when the game first started? I missed a birthday card in there my first time through. And a note on the fridge. There's just crap everywhere in this game.

 

[belljr]

gameplay i enjoyed tomb raider better but this was definitely the game that kept me immersed and captured my attention better.

i never really figured out when it was safe to roam, was always waiting for something to get me lol

 

[Mario Kart]

i never really figured out when it was safe to roam, was always waiting for something to get me lol

If you had the sound up, Joel or Ellie would say something to the effect of "that's all of them" or "we got them all" and then it would be safe to roam. Also, the music would change in tone when it was safe to roam. And, Ellie would not crouch down and walk upright when it was safe to roam. Just saying.

Yeah I knew in general.. but I swear they said that was all of them or the music stopped and a random dude or 2 would show up

 

[IvanKaramazov]

Okay, actually the multiplayer is kind of fun once you figure it out. Basically it's run to the supply box(es), craft stuff, and then either stick with your teammates like glue or try for some kind of solo flanking maneuver. K/D seems irrelevant on this game since you can score a lot of points just by healing, reviving, and gifting items to your team. But then scoring a lot of points is irrelevant since all that does is grow your clan, which has no significance other than unlocking some cosmetic stuff. Nothing earth-shattering, but at least they managed to disguise the fact that it's basically just TDM.

I've been sticking to the "No Parties" matchmaking. A group of guys who just talked to each other on the mic and stuck together would absolutely rape a collection of randoms just by default.

 

[Maik Jeaunz]

finally finished the game. for those who have finished it, here are my thoughts on the ending.

Spoiler

most of the people in the game are pretty morally ambiguous. in the beginning we think that Joel might be one of the good guys, but he's really not. throughout the game, you see that the only thing that matters to him are his own selfish reasons. he tried to get rid of Ellie early on just to be free of the burden, but as he spent time with her, she grew on him and essentially became his surrogate daughter. at the end of the game, she is the only thing that matters to him. not a cure, not even humanity. even if she was willing to give up her life for the cure, which it seemed like she was, he would not let her go because she was the only thing that he could hold on to. if she died, he would die. so he never has any intention of letting her go, to good guys, bad guys, infected, or otherwise. that's why when he killed Marlene, he said "you'll just keep looking for her"...he didn't say "looking for us." he won't let her be taken away, like his daughter was. which brings me to my next thought...

the title of the game is "The Last of Us". I think that title is meant specifically for Ellie. she is the last of us. she is the only person alive with the potential for a cure, and Joel will never let her be taken. so the world will slowly go to ####, until vile humans and infected are all that's left, and we eventually become extinct. so when Ellie dies, so will humanity. pretty bleak.

Spoiler

We do not know for certain that Ellie would allow herself to die if there was a 100% chance of a cure. I cannot recall Ellie ever saying she would die if she was the cure. In that regard, Ellie did not voluntarily go into surgery. She was knocked unconscious under the water with the bus and then taken. Next time we see her awake is in the car with Joel. I don't think Ellie would have chosen to die if she was the cure.

I completely disagree, as I said earlier. I thought the conversation made it readily apparent she was more than willing. Maik and I have the same opinion of the ending. So at least I myself am no longer the Last of Us when it comes to the thoughts about the ending!

 

[shadyridr]

This was a good game until some sniper started shooting at me and I had to make through this field ducking cover the whole way and then eventually got the sniper rifle eventually picking off enemies, a tank, and clickers. And then the ending right before FALL happened Thats when it became a great game. My God what an hour

If you guys are done with the game and wanna get rid of it... Let me know!
