วีดีโอ

another 2hr summary of the game with surface level observations. just because it's long doesnt make it in depth.

I enjoyed this one but it definitely had some annoying bits.

Hope they release the last of us outbreak

This game fell short greatly. Not a bad game by any means but miles off the first

When I want to play a game that's like a movie, I'll pick up this ir a 40+ Hour long jrpg. When I Want to play something purely for gameplay, I'll pick up arkham or mgs 5

They also added dodging, better weapons, I think the dodge was game changing and cooler melee weapons too

Let's thank Robert for The Last of Us

"Is TLOU 2 a masterpiece?" Just came here to so "No".

4:25 Alice in chains mentioned 🔥🔥. What is a bad album?!?!?

every sentence ending in question mark... is just hard to listen to after 6mins. bye

46:37 HE literally kills a bunch of people crashing the track. Did you pay attention

No it’s not….where did you see human enemies who are looking for you say to each : “You search over there, I’ll search over here”….lol…the enemy AI is just pitiful….

No it’s not, it has many flaws and many great qualities too….

Nah it wasn't a masterpiece. The continuity and pacing was a complete disaster, and sending Ellie out on her own for most of the game made it just another revenge story. The dialogue between Joel and Ellie gave the first game so much emotional depth and so I think they missed a big opportunity not pairing Ellie up with Tommy. I'm sure people will say that would have just copied the first game but clearly it wouldn't because the dialogue between the two would have been completely different. However the Last of Us 2 World was simply amazing and the game mechanics were fantastic. A real flag in the ground on both those fronts. The one big issue I had was how controlling naughty dog were with what you could and couldn't do in the game. Even down to the fact you weren't even allowed to take Manny out, the dude who spat on Joel's body. Druckmann's moral finger wagging got on my tits to be honest.

I know im a little late to this video - but i wanted to point something out about 343 guilty spark that ive always thought is such a cool detail. You pointed out how isolated you feel even at the start, and there's so many details that create this - no marines for the first time, no cortana talking to you, no music. But something even more sinister is that as you approach the facility, their are no elites for the first time in the game, and the grunts are running away from the building, not towards you

Hey from 2024 here, I think in the show they used the same cassette tape song in the intro songs or wherever, from the car ride scene in the game! I recognized it✨

Very good breakdown, I’ve genuinely tried enjoying this game because of my love for the first one, but I can’t. Story is terrible and drags, there was no dlc/online/or other game mode until the “remaster” dropped and it ruined the first game for me. Also had lots of glitches on my play throughs. Ghost of Tsushima should’ve won GOTY

Underwhelming? dude are you blind?

Is it ❌ It is ✅

The narrator REALLY has tickets on himself and his abilities. 😂

So, coincidence is always a thing in stories. It’s literally in every story, if there aren’t coincidences the story can’t happen. But it’s super disingenuous to knock on a story just because of coincidences when you wouldn’t do it to another story just because you don’t like the coincidences that took place for the story to happen. Also, clearly you did not pay attention to the scene of Abby killing Joel from their perspective. Owen was the one that said that they shouldn’t kill Ellie. When everyone else, including Mel wanted to kill her. As we see later with Owen not killing the old man scar he doesn’t like killing people he feel doesn’t deserve it, he’s also not as deep into being a “soldier” as the rest of them. He wasn’t really into it, he did out of necessity and most likely just to be with Abby. Which is why we see him wanting to skip training and convincing Abby to stay longer with him at the aquarium. It’s also why Owen wants to leave and go to Santa Barbara. Owen was more aligned with the actual ideas of the fireflies, of wanting to save the world and actually do good things for the people. Even though most of the fireflies didn’t really care and just liked the freedom and were tired of being treated like shit by Fedra. So the reason they did not kill Ellie is because of Owen. Owen was willing to let himself get killed just to save a girl he didn’t even know. He was with Abby for her, while yes he probably wanted Joel dead too it was very clear the way they did it messed with him. Owen was a voice of reason for Abby but she didn’t always listen due to her emotions and drive for revenge getting in the way. But the same way Owen stopped Ellie from getting killed, Lev stopped Dina from getting killed. Which is why Abby grew attached to Lev, Abby was deep down a good person but she blinded herself on the training and the revenge because of the death of her Father, who before that was always teaching her to be a good person, to help others. But without him Owen was the only one there and clearly their relationship wasn’t the greatest, most likely because Owen wasn’t exactly for the whole revenge thing.

You have the Ellie's tattoo?........ Coooool

i really hope the tv show fixes a lot of the game's writing and pacing issues. the first season was a delight, let's hope the second one delivers as well.

💩 take

Bro youre overthinking. Try and have fun while playing games

With the safes - you don't have to find the combos. They can be opened by listening.

Do is halo ce a masterpeice

Ngl, I didn’t know the sniper was Tommy😅

One thing I liked about this is how you always refered to the Infected by their given moniker or just "Infected". I find it annoying how the term zombie is just thrown everywhere when alot of sick, mutated, or infected monsters in games, shows, movies, books aren't zombies. Zombies are decomposing festering corpses, but in Last of Us, the fungus is keeping the body alive, in Dying light, its a rabies, a vast majority of Resident Evil monsters aren't the popculture zombie types you encounter in the start. And whats more annoying is how most people mock the usage of monikers or the term Infected and they go "oh sorry, not zombies, "iNfEcTeD" ". And its just dumb cause if you refer to everything as just zombies, what type? I'mma assume you mean Walkers so I'll be a little confident, but oh no, it turns out to be 28 weeks later Infected and now I wasn't prepared. Just a rant, loved the video

plz do read dead redemption 2

can you play rdr2

16:59 honestly this is such a good point. the events leading up to joel’s death always baffled me and this is why. joel was never quick to trust anyone he didn’t know. he didn’t trust henry and sam when they first met, and now they trust abby AND follow her into their camp? come on 😭

1:58:04 whats the song?

This was the worst questline in Starfield for plot reasons. Think about it. You join the UC Vanguard to work as a combat pilot. They issue you a sidearm. Now go run around planets fighting giant monsters. "What are your qualifications?" "I'm a pilot." "Perfect. Here's a pistol. We need space marines." The person or people responsible for the plot of this questline are completely clueless.

personally, i gotta disagree when it comes to the difficulty settings... The way I see it, there's difficulty options for those that just want to enjoy the story, and there's options for those that want more strategy and planning involved. Not everyone is good at strategizing, and others just don't really find it fun. Im glad we have the choice to play with supplies being abundant. I can focus on the story my first play through, and more on strategy the second time through :)

This is why you have no followers

I do agree that it made no sense that when Joel and Ellie arrived at Jackson’s in part 1 they were met with guns at gunpoint and in part 2 when they meet Abby running around there outposts armed and their first thought is to invite this armed group of military aged people they don’t know back with them ⁉️

playing on grounded+ definitely has that horror aspect even more so than part 1‼️, trying to get past 10+ stalkers in the dark without having listen mode to scan or see enemies is extremely difficult and tense‼️ If you can take down a horde of infected and still have materials and ammo left to push forward your most likely playing on the lower difficulties. I been playing on grounded+ and I barely have enough to take down 1 or 2 runners before i almost always inevitably have to resort to stealth and or running past infected just to progress through a certain part💯 but the game is about having fun of fun for you is a more stealthy approach while being tense and scared turn on grounded+ if you like loud action packed combat and gun fighting then turn on one of the lower difficulties he’ll they even have gameplay modifiers where you can have infinite ammo, slow mo aiming, one shit kills, infinite melee, etc play what’s fun for you ‼️

Ghost of Tsushima DEFINITELY deserved GOTY, but I've still grown to really enjoy and appreciate this game

For me the best gamer ever made. I am so in love with that game ;).

I’ve played through each game multiple times I wanna say the first game at least 6 and the second maybe 3-4, and I side with Joel on his decision, yes he took Ellie’s choice away but there were so many variables with the potential cure, like it’s not like the fireflies had good intentions and maybe they would have with held the cure or maybe there would have been people out there who would have refused to change the world. I also think Ellie’s venture for revenge went too far and I ended up siding with Abby even thought of course killing Joel sucked

I’m only 1/4 of the way through but I wanted to leave this comment before I forgot: Abby never knew where Joel was. She found out where Tommy was because some fireflies visited Jackson and told her that it may have been Joel’s brother. Owen and Abby were arguing about it at the aquarium during Christmas. “You don’t even know if he’s (Tommy) there.” “Based on a rumour?” And that’s when Abby gives him the “it’s a lead, I have to follow it.” That he gives back to her when talking about finding the fireflies. I don’t think it’s THAT coincidental that Abby found out. Her entire life was dedicated to getting revenge on Joel after Jerry died, same as how Ellie’s was about getting revenge for Joel after he passed. There was the recorder that Ellie found at the hospital talking about how the fireflies split and some wanted to hunt down Joel. They may have been dying out, but there was still enough to leave them scattered, and the hospital is not that far from Jackson. It’s not that far of a stretch to believe that Abby wasn’t the only one that wanted revenge on Joel. So i think it makes sense that fireflies would find Tommy, but they may also, have a goal to some degree of wanting to find Joel still. I’ll give you that it’s coincidental that it was Joel and Tommy that found Abby, but she was bound to find someone being so close to town. And it also bothers me that nobody remembers that it’s Tommy that tells Abby’s group their names. Joel never gave his name. It was Tommy that said “I’m Tommy and this is my brother Joel.” They had no choice but to go back to Abby’s group because of the blizzards and the hoards, saying they’d never make it back. Even then, it does make sense that Joel wouldn’t be in the right head space to think the way he did in the first game. He’s not in survival mode as much as he used go be, he can feel safer in Jackson. Besides, as far as he knew, he killed Marlene and covered the biggest portion of his tracks. Nobody knew his name, they only called him “the smuggler” in the end of the first game. I feel like all these things helped him relax a little throughout the years. He’s also getting into his 50s, and remember that he JUST had a really emotional night with Ellie. That may have been what kept his head out of the game. Like I get that this can seem like a stretch, but putting all the little things together, it doesn’t seem like THAT much of a coincidence. Neither does Mel getting pregnant. But that’s a whole other can of worms. I think there’s some real critique on the beginning of the games, but this stuff just bothers me.

Surface level, nitpicky commentary. This analysis is superflous and shallow, it's as if this was a mere reaction long-review rather than a proper curated critic analysis, therefore the condescendent posture towards the game and it's narrative. Also, innecesary swearing, boy. I'm not watching any more of your videos. There are some other videos that do it better, but this is bad.

They phoned in Lev as a character. They left the island for a reason. Just to drag the player into a fire pit climax. The bridge scene was good.

It was a good quest line.

ADHD version: No, it wasn't.

18:00 this scene pissed me off so bad especially when all her friends chipped in it made me so mad because it honestly felt so dumb how im pretty sure they didn’t joel only knowing him through abby bc so to have manny spit on him felt weird but thats probably just me

I didn't realize coincidences don't happen in real life.

Really enjoy the video but I must admit it is hard to trust the gameplay critique from someone who can’t navigate a hallway correctly during the gameplay footage lmao

Still a Masterpiece ❤
