Anyone who thinks either of The Last of Us games belongs on a top ten games of all time list (or hell, a top 100 list) hasn't been playing games made before 2010. They did literally nothing that hadn't already been done in games thousands of times before and better. Even "tEh Em0sHuNuL sIn0MaTiK sToRyTeLlINg" that the games are known for was done to death before the PS2 era was over, the actual story within the games is the exact same ultra-nihilistic shit made by The Walking Dead, and actually looking into their world, setting, and plot past the surface elements will reveal the holes.
I really enjoyed playing 1 the first time round. Mainly for the atmosphere. But the second time round I realised just how basic it is. It's still a good game but I can name 20 games with little thought right now that are better.
I'd say it's debatable. Joel might have learned to love again over the course of TLoU, but his love for her didn't lead to anything good. It just caused him to kill all the people who had the potential to end the zombie menace once and for all, meaning his love only doomed the world and brought more suffering to it. While I was always of the personal opinion that the Fireflies were a bunch of idiots who were no different from the other gangs and raiders you encountered throughout the game and their idea of a cure was just an act of desperation at best and it was never going to work, it's clear the writers had other ideas and were intending me to take everything told to me at face value. The sequel showed their true colors.
As per usual, retards point to story as the sole decider of "good game".
The irony is that The Russo Brothers best film is probably Avenger's Endgame, and it's only real merit is the unique element of film: moving visual.
The fact that critics refuse to judge games on what it uniquely brings to the table is all you need to know about how retarded critics are. Story isn't irrelevant (in fact, it's still pretty damn important), but forgoing that for below sub-par gameplay? It makes it a shitty game. If the story floats your boat, it might be amazing. I know I don't give a shit about it, but the elements that make it a game? That's what's important. Pong is an objectively better game than TLoU2, and considering the depth of Pong (or rather, the lack thereof), that isn't a hard hurdle to surpass.
[subheader]The Avengers: Endgame directors praised two of Naughty Dog's IPs
The Russo Brothers have praised Uncharted and The Last of Us, calling the latter of the two "one of the greatest games ever made."
In a recent video with IGN, whilst promoting the pair's recent Netflix film The Gray Man, Anthony and Joe Russo were asked to rate chase scenes in video games - two of which were from Naughty Dog's back catalogue of games, including Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and The Last of Us 2.
Isn't Uncharted 4 the one where a woman, that by all accounts should have about the strength of a 15 year old boy that's realistically fit, beat up two grown men that are experienced in Hand-to-Hand-combat. At the same time?
Soyboys tend to have the same subjugation fetish that women do. Rape fantasies, trannies, etc
You would be shocked (well maybe not) at the number of self admitted tranny fuckers there are on Faggit.
I doubt they do the fucking...

FFVII is just as, if not more, cinematic. I don't think The Last of Us is going to get multiple remasters and spin offs like that game did.
Hell, FFXV is more cinematic and has a better story.

I can get story anywhere. When I play a game, I want a GAME.
I remember hearing all the praise lavished on this game then I saw why
Then it turned out to be tranny caddyshack.
I wonder why a couple of movie writers/directors would favor wannabe movies posing as video games…
Despite the fact the gameplay is reportedly solid, the story is absolute trash.
From the actual article:
Isn't Uncharted 4 the one where a woman, that by all accounts should have about the strength of a 15 year old boy that's realistically fit, beat up two grown men that are experienced in Hand-to-Hand-combat. At the same time?
I can't disagree that the first Uncharted was a great game. I'm a sucker for Indiana Jones treasure hunter type stories and characters.
I don't know who the Russo brothers are, can someone tell me?
Apparently they've made some shit I've never seen because it looked and sounded retarded, including an avengers movie and captain america.
These guys are movie directors. They directed "Avengers: Endgame" and most recently "The Gray Man."
I believe the Fine brothers are the React guys.
LOL my bad.
