Well I finally have the game and i while i haven't finished it yet, the game for me is certainly better than what i thought it would be. The flashbacks with Joel and Ellie was done superbly....that scene with them in the dinosaur museum was executed extremely well. The interaction and dialogue felt authentic and organic. I loved the scene where if you take Ellie into one of the bathrooms, she will make funny faces in the mirror....just something that a child of her age would do and the animations during those moments was stunning....no creepy valley looking models. I also absolutely loved that moment Ellie pretended to blast off into space.....truly a heartfelt moment between Joel and Ellie that brilliantly captured that relationship between daughter and father. But there is a lot of disconnect with the story...and i could follow so far, but it has been an absolute pain going through Abby's segments....no amount of sympathy or back story can get me to like her or her character model....we are introduced to her waking up, then for me her walking animation is one reflective of the incredible hulk, or one of my menz i used to hang with on the block back in the day. Then they have you walking by a makeshift gym as if to show you how and why Abby is modeled in that fashion...completely baffled by this decision in her model design...while every body in that gym is working out Abby is the only one that looks like she can bench press a house...... So i'm playing as Abby and y'know i'm trying to give her a chance but i'm not feeling anything...they are trying hard to make you understand and sympathize with her, but the way you was introduced to her, with Joel saving her from dying, then to just flip on him like that?....yeah the game gives a quick flashback as to why she gives Joel the final blow, but Abby's story could have been written much better if Druckmann wasn't such a hack. She should have been modeled in a more softer feminine image,....give a bit of the back story showing how her father was a caring person like Joel was (and to be fair they did try to show this) but this was done waaay after you already felt Abby was an a$$hole....her demeanor and her mannerisms through that entire segment with Joel set the stage for her for the rest of the game and anybody who played the first game, at least for me knew that it would be a hard sell for the game to get me to like her. I'm kinda just blazing through her section so i can get it over with....not feeling Abby no matter how much the game may try. And that sex scene?.... ......like i said, i haven't finished the game just yet, and to be fair those scenes with Joel and Ellie did bring a smile to my face because those scenarios felt genuine..so the game i felt has moments of greatness, but Abby's segments just feels drawn out and the flashbacks cause some real dis-connects for me so far....animations and facial expressions are top-notch...really incredible what naughty dog has done on that front....

This is just a silly observation, but... TLOU 2 gets more love from the RDR 2 subreddit than it does from its own.
Now that I've thought about it for a minute, I realize it's actually really obvious why... :p

Now that I've thought about it for a minute, I realize it's actually really obvious why... :pIts pretty common, people are going to highlight the best parts of the game when comparing it to others. So that leaves a lot of the complaints to be aired in the places dedicated to them.

I've been thinking of starting a new playthrough of this one. I'll probably 100% my second PT of AC Valhalla first. There are a lot of great moments in TLoU2 that keep coming to mind.

I am watching an LP of the game and I can't stop thinking about this glaring issue: Why is the WLF allowing pregnant women on the front line? We all seen Dina struggle with early pregnancy, but somehow Mel is cleared to fight by an organized paramilitary force and can do so despite her enlarged stomach? Combat stress along with biological stress would probably be enough to trigger a miscarriage and even kill the mother. Plus, Mel is a medic, you know, an incredibly important person to keep safe in a post-apocalyptic community that is currently at war.
Oh and here's why Abby used a nine-iron: Here’s why Abby uses a golf club in ‘The Last of Us Part II’ www.washingtonpost.com/video-games/2021/03/03/golf-club-the-last-of-us/I'm thinking that dent may be responsible for a lot of his behavior.

We all seen Dina struggle with early pregnancy, but somehow Mel is cleared to fight by an organized paramilitary force and can do so despite her enlarged stomach? There are some scenes of dialogue early in Seattle Day 1B that explain that Mel has been assigned to a special section for new families, but she keeps requesting assignments to take her mind off problems with the father. Her field mission later that chapter was the result of Manny specifically requesting that she come along because she and Abby hadn't talked things out. It was supposed to be a routine transfer to the FOB to help organize units before an attack on the island that would involve all hands (but wasn't expected to put her directly in combat.)

Sorry for the late response.
Still, it seems insane doesn't it? Letting someone with Mel's skills AND condition be allowed to leave the safety of their fortress for a transfer even though there's a STRONG possiblity of an ambush by the Seraphites who love taking out convoys and vehicles.
I'll just chalk it up to the developers making a statement or a set up for an extremely EDGY(TM) scene later on.
That being said, I enjoyed the set up for the conflict where it's a long term war of attrition with the WLF taking constant losses and trying to to set up a knockout blow.
I also love how the Seraphites are likely to win over the infected as well due to their tactics, weaponry and religious zeal. I thought a cult of crazies with bows was a weird direction to take from the previous game's factions, but the developers did a good job in this regard.
By the way, are you guys ready for another remake of TLOU and the TV series?
I wonder how badly will they ruin the pacing or story or characters.
I bet they will make Joel MORE evil and have him use Sarah as a human shield. Make David a cross-burning religion nut who quotes scripture the first time Ellie encounters him. I can imagine them having scenes of Tess and Joel banging nonstop like wild rabbits after what we were cursed to watch
If there's one thing that Naughty Dog has shown us with TLOU2 is they do not care about the subtly nor nuance of the previous game. With Druckmann, it's all: "Whoa weed! Whoa sex! Whoa edgy violence and despair! We have shootable dogs now, don't you feel bad?! The people you're shooting call out to each other by name, ain't that RADICAL?!! DON'T YOU FEEL GUILITY?!!"
Strawman yes, but that's what I got from his interviews, his social media postings, and watching the game.
But maybe I'm wrong and that they somehow improve it with sections in between the time skips that don't break the flow and maybe the TV series will be more of a side story that won't affect the game's plot.

I do feel the same was about Neil Druckmann and the people that have now left Naughty Dog helped restrict some of the urges in The Last of Us that Druckmann showed in The Last of Us Part 2. I have lost pretty much all interest in Naughty Dog games that involve Neil Druckmann and with his control at the company I doubt that he won't have major input in any game they produce now.

It would be a miracle if Joel doesn't get character assassinated in an effort to positively boost people's perception of Abby after the original TLOU's depiction of Joel had made the character too popular for Druckmann to successfully demonize. I wouldn't be surprised if Abby's dad doesn't threaten Joel with a scalpel but instead implores him to think about the children while orchestral holy music is playing in the background. Joel who's sporting a MAGA cap, Confederate flag shirt, a 24 carat swastika gold chain, and baby seal skin boots then goes on a random rant about gays and immigrants before executing him. The dingey operating room that the scene took place in the original will also be changed to look like a pristine high tech medical room in order to counter criticisms of Dr. Anderson's lack of medical professionalism. Hopefully we'll only get hamfisted cameos of Abby, and crew throughout the game instead of character assassinations the likes of which hasn't been seen since GoT S8.

The Last of Us 2 DLC may have been planned, but is reportedly no longer in development www.gamesradar.com/the-last-of-us-2-dlc-may-have-been-planned-but-is-reportedly-no-longer-in-development/The rumor is that it was a story DLC called Dark Sides and it was going to star Abby (of course) and would have taken place before her and Lev's capture in Santa Barbara as well as tie in with the MP.
Anyone getting Deja Vu from ME:A?
Anyway, multiplayer time: What do you want to see from Factions when/if it comes out?
I want to see infected come into the match at random times and then the players can use throwables and arrows to attract them to the opposing team. Also using loud weapons will increase the likelihood of your death from getting swarmed but you get more points/parts.
Also underwater fights when two players swim too close to each other.

So both games didn't do huge numbers and management with their calculators decided that making a story based DLC was too risky. Sadly I still rather have this situation then a GTA situation where it seems they started work to the point of having the voice actors, but decide the MP component is making them too much money to finish the DLC.

Don't you just hate that? Let's all focus on Multiplayer DLC instead of Story Content from a company where Single Player is their bread and butter. That really left a bad taste in my mouth with RD:R2.
But you know, after watching the story, I think a Tommy DLC would have worked better for getting old fans back.

Heck, Rockstar lost me years ago when GTA transformed into the exploitative griefer paradise that is Online. I think the last time I played a Rockstar game, the PS3 was my most up to date console. Frankly, I’d gladly put a hex on multiplayer “spin-off” content at this point, so that failure will keep these developers focused on the things fans actually latched onto them for in the first place. Ironically though, a TLOU multiplayer mode actually sounds more intriguing than more TLOU story mode itself, because I can only tolerate so much empty depression.

The rumor is that it was a story DLC called Dark Sides and it was going to star Abby When I first finished the game, I thought the most natural DLC character would be Dina. Besides having some room for an interesting exploration of her backstory in flashbacks, it could have paired nicely TLOU-Left-Behind-style with Dina's side of Seattle Day 1, climaxing with her rescuing Ellie. (And uh... vice-versa.) I appreciate what they were trying to achieve with Abby, and I particularly admire Laura Bailey's handling of the character, but I wouldn't buy a DLC focused on her. Anyway, multiplayer time: What do you want to see from Factions when/if it comes out? I never played the MP from the first one, because it required PSN Plus, which I assume would probably be the case this time around, as well. If they go the same route microsoft just did with Gold, I'll probably check it out (if it ever exists.)
