one of the saddest parts of the intro is that joel’s watch was broken when sarah died, he wears it because she gave it to him but it also shows the time she was taken from him
the character's facial expressions are so much more detailed with the updated graphics, i ac can't deal with it. after ellie admires the view, and the way joel looks at her and then subtly at his watch????? Nah man i'm never getting over this game
I'm both excited and nervous to go through this experience again. Edit: That opening ... I cry every time. It's just feels so real. I remember watching playthroughs way back when this was first released in '13. The emotional impact hasn't gotten any easier. The Last of Us remains a masterpiece in my mind.
I made it to 00:18 right after Julien said, "hope you enjoy pain" and the guitar strumming began. NOPE. Someday but I'm definitely not ready today lmfao
I don't know if anyone else does this, but every time I watch this or similarly dramatic games, it makes it so much more enjoyable to imagine everything the streamer says, is what the character being played is saying and everyone around them choose to ignore. It makes it so funny every time.
i have watched this playthrough so many times (the old one) and i SCREAMED when i saw this on my recommended. thank you julien for being such a comfort and playing one of my favorite stories again!!
Literally have no idea what all the people on Twitter saying the remastered version looks no different like…?! Are your eyes okay. The details are insane! It feels almost real! So excited to watch Julien play this again! Edit: And GOD that intro…cried during stream and I’m crying again.
Sarah's death was so much harder with the updated graphics and seeing Tommy and Joel before everything that they go through and Tommy especially seeing him young compared to him at the end of 2 is hard
The way that most of the zombies just sound like regular humans when they are attacked is so much more haunting to me than animalistic growls. It's a reminder that these creatures were human and still are to some extent.
Especially with the knowledge that in reality, the cordyceps fungus (which is a real thing) doesn’t actually alter the brain, it just controls the body. Which implies that the infected are still mentally aware to some extent, but they can’t do anything about it :’)
i really didn’t think i was going to like this remaster because i didn’t think they needed to. but i was wrong, i’m 16 minutes in and absolutely love it. the lighting and colors and details are all just perfect
The only game I've ever played or witnessed that gives you just enough time in the opening scenes to get attached to someone so that dramatcially taking that character away made us all cry. 🥺😭 Heartbreak everytime. Can never prepare enough for it.
I Watch these while I work out and when Juilen threw the second bottle immediately after picking it up I had water in my mouth and I shit you not I laughed and spit all over the treadmill with 15 minutes left SO glad this place is mostly empty
oh this opener is even more heartbreaking with these updated graphics omg… sarah seriously looks like a little baby :((( gonna cry even harder this time around
i’ve never played TLOU (not much into video games tbh) BUT I am an avid Critical Role fan, and knowing how many of the fam are in this game, obviously Ashley Johnson being the main part of Ellie, I just had to watch this play through. So glad I did, even with all the Emotional Damage
Dammit (lol), now I have to go watch the original full play through to compare; I don't remember seeing Joel look at his watch that Sarah gave him ( 2:17:26 ish) after Ellie admired the view of the skyline.
I just finished catching up with Julien's current playthrough of TLOU2, so until he plays again I'll be watching this! The plan is to then watch his first play throughs of both games :)
oh hell yes, i’m ready. this is probably my favorite game of all time and it’s been a while since i played and or watched a play through. giant spoiler below. Sarah’s death still kills me to this day.
I will watch this game be played through as many times as it comes across my suggestions lmao. I have watched it through 6+ times and I know I will watch it many more. I feel like I watch it once every year or so. I miss the characters when I haven’t watched it in a while
My favorite video game of all time. First time I watched it played, was when you played it. So glad you are playing the remastered version! Ty! As a Mother though, I must say that I never watched the intro to this game again after the first playthrough you did. I skip right over it everytime. Cannot handle it.
Watched the first play through during lockdown in deep depression and now I’m recovering from COVID, excited about the show trailer dropping, but idk if I’m ready for a round two… she said as she watches hahaha i haven’t even played this game but just from watching streams it haunts me
YES!!! I watched you play both TLoU many times and TLoU2 many more times! Now I can add this to my "things I got obsessed with for an undisclosed period of time" lol. Thank you Julien!!! Damn, the art production of TLOU2 meets TLOU; love it! TESS!! Awesome :)
This and the second game will always wrench my heart no matter how many times I see it. Naughty has made some masterpieces 🙏 these two games are my all time favorites and I can't believe how amazing this looks now!
all in the first 15 minutes we get comedy, horror, thrills, 3 characters that we learn to love, the start of a fantastic character arch, intense action and one of the saddest deaths of a character in any media. It shocks me that people say the show is better. Ive seen movies try all of these in an hour and a half and fail.
omg this gamee man.. it totally deserved a remake like this one. also yall, pro tip, please turn of your flashlights when dealing with runners and stalkers. they are the first 2 stages of infection. they still have functional eyesight and can see you whereas clickers and bloaters can't.
Around 20:06 I swear the two NPCs talking by the dumpster sounded and looked just like Laura Bailey and Travis Willingham. Fingers crossed Laura can handle outside work duty 😬
It’s so sad seeing how nice and caring Sarah is in a short time. She says they should have helped the people on the road and said they couldn’t leave Tommy. 😢
one of the saddest parts of the intro is that joel’s watch was broken when sarah died, he wears it because she gave it to him but it also shows the time she was taken from him
WHAT THE FUCK THIS IS DEVASTATING TO THINK ABOUT
@@amelooloo THE DAY AFTER HIS BIRTHDAY TOO JUST UGGHHH
WHAT THE FUCK OW
why would u say this T_T
Wooooah I never thought about that. That is so heart wrenching
I’m sorry but Kermit accidentally hitting the soundboard right after that heartwrenching intro got me. Not good that he sleep startled tho :[
Right? Lmfao, so typical of this man to just take the moment for himself lol.
@@Vee_Veee im rewatching this a year later but noooo poor worm, he's just an anxious dude
the character's facial expressions are so much more detailed with the updated graphics, i ac can't deal with it. after ellie admires the view, and the way joel looks at her and then subtly at his watch????? Nah man i'm never getting over this game
Never noticed that before, thanks for pointing it out!
I'm both excited and nervous to go through this experience again. Edit: That opening ... I cry every time. It's just feels so real. I remember watching playthroughs way back when this was first released in '13. The emotional impact hasn't gotten any easier. The Last of Us remains a masterpiece in my mind.
Her eyes in the opening, it hits different for sure. And tess's small facial expressions and mannerisms, makes her even better
yeah, it hits every fucking time, the last hours of poor Sarah's life were so horrible, and then Joel has to live with that... it's too much
Everytime for me too
took the works right out of my mouth
Same
I love how Julian is so in tune with the game that he’s responding the same as the game characters at times lol
Jesus, that prologue hits me to this day. One of the best game openings I have ever seen.
I made it to 00:18 right after Julien said, "hope you enjoy pain" and the guitar strumming began.
NOPE. Someday but I'm definitely not ready today lmfao
I don't know if anyone else does this, but every time I watch this or similarly dramatic games, it makes it so much more enjoyable to imagine everything the streamer says, is what the character being played is saying and everyone around them choose to ignore. It makes it so funny every time.
thank you for this, that makes this stream 10x funnier
The way Tess kinda just stayed crouched behind Joel😭 and Juliens comments about it
It hurts but at least the pain has breath taking graphics now :,)
Holy shit this looks like a completely different video game now. Sarah and Ellie actually look different now.
Also NPCs actually have details now. And Spores aren’t just white clouds. This is sick
@@ZombieGoddessxi it’s so gorgeous it’s like part 2
they also made sarah look a lot younger which makes the whole prologue more heartbreaking
@@mimiiq3855 bc she was only 12 😫😭
Kermit hitting the soundboard got me to stop crying LMAO
"well i am the romantic type" *pulls out a gun*
i know it’s old news and an old take but GODDAMN IS THE WHOLE CLICKER CONCEPT AND THEIR DESIGN SO COOL AND CREATIVE
Anyone else rewatching after the release of TLOU on HBO??
i have watched this playthrough so many times (the old one) and i SCREAMED when i saw this on my recommended. thank you julien for being such a comfort and playing one of my favorite stories again!!
Literally have no idea what all the people on Twitter saying the remastered version looks no different like…?! Are your eyes okay. The details are insane! It feels almost real! So excited to watch Julien play this again! Edit: And GOD that intro…cried during stream and I’m crying again.
They just want to complain as usual, they do that especially with well-loved games. They want to cause a ruckus, aka get attention LOL.
For anyone that finds the intro distressing skip to 16:20 ❤️
Omg I just recently watched all of your TLOU playthroughs, can't wait to relive it again ayyyy
Literally me too haha
that intro literally makes me cry every time, it's just so fucking visceral, especially sarah's crying is what gets me the most.
Sarah's death was so much harder with the updated graphics and seeing Tommy and Joel before everything that they go through and Tommy especially seeing him young compared to him at the end of 2 is hard
The way that most of the zombies just sound like regular humans when they are attacked is so much more haunting to me than animalistic growls. It's a reminder that these creatures were human and still are to some extent.

The emotions are shown so much more and I’ve played this game a million times but the intro almost got me again
I can’t believe how good this game looks. One of my favorite games ever.
I Watch these while I work out and when Juilen threw the second bottle immediately after picking it up I had water in my mouth and I shit you not I laughed and spit all over the treadmill with 15 minutes left SO glad this place is mostly empty
oh this opener is even more heartbreaking with these updated graphics omg… sarah seriously looks like a little baby :((( gonna cry even harder this time around
I cried a lot the first playthrough and now I'm crying again! Also: the "oh christ!" of Joel always gets to me. Look at Joels face! Fuck.
the way I've seen playthroughs of this game like 3 times but still cry my eyes out during the prologue dear god
i’ve never played TLOU (not much into video games tbh) BUT I am an avid Critical Role fan, and knowing how many of the fam are in this game, obviously Ashley Johnson being the main part of Ellie, I just had to watch this play through. So glad I did, even with all the Emotional Damage
Dammit (lol), now I have to go watch the original full play through to compare; I don't remember seeing Joel look at his watch that Sarah gave him ( 2:17:26 ish) after Ellie admired the view of the skyline.
I almost forgot how sweet Tess’ relationship with Ellie was
here we go bebe
ready to cry bebe
Ellie walking into the vase Julien tried to smash is sending me
I just finished catching up with Julien's current playthrough of TLOU2, so until he plays again I'll be watching this! The plan is to then watch his first play throughs of both games :)
Idk how Julien can replay this so soon. every time Joel speaks I wanna cryyyy
oh hell yes, i’m ready.
this is probably my favorite game of all time and it’s been a while since i played and or watched a play through. giant spoiler below.
Sarah’s death still kills me to this day.
I’ve played this game 4(???) times, I thought I was tough. The new animations in the faces got me hard in the opening scene. Holy SHIT
Sound is back at 1:27:42
Thank you! I was looking for this comment
16:17 I involuntarily sighed WITH you, we were so in-sync it made me laugh after. my heart.
julien busting out some moves right in front of the guard at 23:30 was so funny but yeah it feels like a different game almost wow
Wow, it’s definitely higher quality and more defined. Looks so good!
i'm so excited to watch the new TLOU played by my favourite youtube because i sure as fuck can't afford a PS5 and the game ahahah
I will watch this game be played through as many times as it comes across my suggestions lmao. I have watched it through 6+ times and I know I will watch it many more. I feel like I watch it once every year or so. I miss the characters when I haven’t watched it in a while
every time the elgato screen flashes I imagine the vine boom sound
OK that added so much more to the Sarah death scene, wow. Like it was already hard before
9 years later and I still cry e v e r y single time at the prologue
My favorite video game of all time. First time I watched it played, was when you played it. So glad you are playing the remastered version! Ty! As a Mother though, I must say that I never watched the intro to this game again after the first playthrough you did. I skip right over it everytime. Cannot handle it.
drinking game: take a shot of water everytime joel kills someone
stay hydrated y'all
I literally just thought about rewatching Julien's first playthrough of this game, so this is perfect timing! I'm ready for the emotional damage 🥲
"step on me Tess" so true bestie
Watched the first play through during lockdown in deep depression and now I’m recovering from COVID, excited about the show trailer dropping, but idk if I’m ready for a round two… she said as she watches hahaha i haven’t even played this game but just from watching streams it haunts me
YES!!! I watched you play both TLoU many times and TLoU2 many more times! Now I can add this to my "things I got obsessed with for an undisclosed period of time" lol. Thank you Julien!!!
Damn, the art production of TLOU2 meets TLOU; love it! TESS!! Awesome :)
Watching him cry broke me
This and the second game will always wrench my heart no matter how many times I see it. Naughty has made some masterpieces 🙏 these two games are my all time favorites and I can't believe how amazing this looks now!
Also the editing on the thumbnails is on point 👌👌
I already know ima bout to cry
i’ve spent the last week and a half rewatching your tlou one and two playthroughs… here we go again
Just finished watching your first gameplay of this just a few days ago and I’m here for it again captain!
all in the first 15 minutes we get comedy, horror, thrills, 3 characters that we learn to love, the start of a fantastic character arch, intense action and one of the saddest deaths of a character in any media. It shocks me that people say the show is better. Ive seen movies try all of these in an hour and a half and fail.
this is my most favorite video game of all time, im so glad youre playing this
omg this gamee man.. it totally deserved a remake like this one. also yall, pro tip, please turn of your flashlights when dealing with runners and stalkers. they are the first 2 stages of infection. they still have functional eyesight and can see you whereas clickers and bloaters can't.
The first time you have an interaction with runners with Tess, the remake now shows a tip/message that the infected don’t react to the flashlight.
Around 20:06 I swear the two NPCs talking by the dumpster sounded and looked just like Laura Bailey and Travis Willingham. Fingers crossed Laura can handle outside work duty 😬
TLOU is by far my favorite story game julen has streamed. LOOTIN AND SCOOTIN BABY!!!!!
the: DID IT JST FLASH ELGATO? had me cry laphfing
the fact that Julien knows harry styles lore makes me so happy u have no idea
Don’t think I caught that, when did it happen lol!?
I literally sobbed watching my husband play this when Sarah got shot. Like wtf
Sparrow 🍝🍝🥡🥡🌶️🌶️🍻🍻
No fucking way!!!!!! HELL YEAH!!!!!!!
17:24 Kermit: If, I said IF!
I love watching Juilen play The Last of Us, it reminds me of when him and Jenna played Life is Strange
I want to get this when it’s cheaper but honestly since the seconds events I haven’t been able to go back and play 1, hurts too much
when did lootin n scootin turn into dyin & cryin 😭😭😭 this game got me fucked up
this is literally my 5th time watching Julien’s play through and i always cry when Sarah dies
Julien and his excitement over the bottles :') it takes me to the first playthrough
I just don’t know if I’ve ever heard a person say “I’m gonna scream and pee I’m gonna scream and pee” and my life is changed forever.
JULIEN, every time you play this it rips my heart out but i cant help but watch cause it sooooo good!
So glad you’ll be finishing my favorite game!!! It’s been a few years coming.
Missing the podcast so listening to this while I go to sleep 😴 💜 okay switching to something else, this is not bed time chill 😅
Just played this for the first time what a roller coaster of emotions
This intro will never not make me cry
I would 100% love to watch this, but I'm terrified of zombies... I've never seen this game before because of it
It’s so sad seeing how nice and caring Sarah is in a short time. She says they should have helped the people on the road and said they couldn’t leave Tommy. 😢
I’m ready to start this journey for the 600th time
I remember being here for the first half of this stream 😭😭😭 crying
When did that opening get even more sad 🥲
I was hoping you’d replay the new edition! I’m ready to cryyy again 🥺🥲🥲
love you julien, hope you're having a good day :)
Sarah’s death will always make me cry. No matter how many time I play this game.
I was fine at the Sarah scene until I looked at Julen omfg :'(
I can feel myself bargaining in the beginning as if I don't already know what's gonna happen lmao sadge
Since I can't afford this game I'm.watching with Julien, thank you!!!!
Sure does hit different when you have kids😅
Kermit is such a precious little fella
The Twitch mutes are ruining the vibes... Get your shit together Twitch c'mon
15:03 on destroys me every time.
*all of us every time
I was literally thinking today about re rewatching your tlou playthrough and then I saw this
Hey Julie.. does the game feel different the second time around? Do you feel like you're getting something new out of it?
Should’ve stopped when Julien said “hope you enjoy pain” 😭 decided to watch this for the first time since Julien talked about how good it was
Julien crying might have melted my icey heart a little.
Makes me cry every single time.
