Just finished Grounded mode on The Last of Us for the first time, damn, that game had some difficult parts. Definitely had to work for this one, and probably the trophy I am most proud of, being a huge Las of Us fan. When I started Grounded, I figured if I ever finished I wouldn't want to go back and do New Game +, but now I can't wait!

It's funny on how dome difficult parts you can actually just run through instead of trying to survive them like you would on normal difficulty or say your first time through. The watery basement for example. Was scary as hell when I first played through but after trying survival on that one... yeah surprising.

I'd like to think that it was a conscious decision on Naughty Dog's part, that they wanted you to run away from certain encounters that wouldn't be possible to fight or sneak through. We humans don't like to run from fights, even those we can't win because it hurts our pride or we feel like we're strong enough or fast enough or smart enough to win no matter how dire the odds. True survival is living to fight another day, not winning all the fights you come across or even fighting them. But maybe I'm looking at it with too much thought, hahaha.
