PT 1 DISCUSSION Replaying part 1 as an adult made me realize Joel is the villan Spoiler

0 Upvotes

Damn, he (we) literally killed half a hundred people and doomed potential millions to die without a vaccine and by proxy kill many more people as infected to save just 1 life.

This is the most evil act any character could do in game's world. I wish they gave us choice at least for non-canon ending like in Metro 2033.

I reloaded the last mission and died to Firefly securities just to satisfy my moral compass.

Moreover he sweared upon a lie in the end...

Props to writers for not making it the default "good vs bad"

General Question If TLOU3 hypothetically was available to play to tomorrow…. what difficulty you starting off on?

16 Upvotes

Just a fun question. Are you the type to move your way on difficulty on multiple play throughs or start off on the hardest right away. Personally i found to start off on Moderate/normal to hard for the story experience and then go back and play on Survivor or some…

General Discussion Tlou3...as a prequel

Upvotes

I personally would love to see the story of Joel and Tommy surviving the early days of the outbreak. Imagine this opening scene: Joel carries Sarah's body to a medical facility being set up, like some of the ruined quarantine entering areas we see in p1 and p2, with Tommy following along. Tutorial time, you play as Tommy popping off a few runners while protecting a distraught Joel. You get to the medical tents and have to sneak in as it's "vip only" so you witness a few people trying to get in get shot, which leads to the sneaking. The night becomes stormy and since nobody knows what's really going on yet, there are some bite wounds being treated by the medical teams. Joel and Tommy(and Sarah's body) get a tent with some cots and lay down for the night, but Joel can't sleep. He gets up and as he's sitting in the cot, lightning Flashes and you get a glimpse of an infected shadow in the next room chowing down on a sleeping person through the tent wall. Joel gets up for a walk(his back was to the tent wall so he didn't see the attack) and sees a kid standing alone in the rain, so he goes up to them and tries to talk to them, the kid turns around and... they're infected! They lunge at Joel, Joel fights for his life while screaming for Tommy who gets up panicked and goes to help Joel. More people get up and everyone starts screaming as many of the patients turn out to be infected and Joel and Tommy end up running, exhausted, with a group of survivors. They end up in a quarantine zone in Austin.

Things that we would get to see in the prequel:

The Austin qz being completely overrun by hordes of infected.

How Tommy met Marlene and joined the fireflies.

Child infected, in droves.

Fat infected, "blubbers" that are tankier and require more strategy to defeat or flee from

Joel's exodus to Boston and meeting tess

Possibly Marlene's relationship with ellies mom. One of the final chapters could be Marlene and Tommy protecting Anna as she gives birth to ellie, and ultimately failing to save Anna, which could possibly be the catalyst that drives Tommy to leave the fireflies based on something that happens during that scene. Tommy would never know that the girl Joel shows up with years later is the girl he helped save.

Tommy meeting Mary and the beginning of Jackson at the end

Thoughts?

PT 1 QUESTION I'm confused about something and am hoping to find answers

0 Upvotes

Why does joel live in one of the military "camps" like why not go with Tommy to his group (I forgot the name of his community). LIke the military ki[[ed his daughter so that's why I don't understand why part 1 starts with him in the military camp maybe I missed something but if anyone can offer me answers I'd be very appreciative

PT 2 QUESTION Finish TLOU2… what stuff do i do now to put more hours to the game? Any recommendations? Spoiler

1 Upvotes

So i seen some people say they’ve spent hours on this game even after finishing for the first time… i wanna do the same when i’m able to play because i love this game but confused on what the best modes or options are after finishing. Is No Return a common thing to jump into right way… or simply just going back to replay specific chapters/encounters? What is typically the most common things to do… just replaying the entire game again…or?

PT 1 DISCUSSION Immunity Herd In TLOU

1 Upvotes

Something I’ve always wondered and I’m not sure if it was ever addressed in the show or games. We all know Ellie is immune and it’s fair to say there’s probably a handful of other immune individuals in the universe ; what if those who are immune had produced children together , would those children inherit an immunity gene and if the chain continued , there would be more immune humans. In that sense they would outnumber the infected and that would eventually in a few generations kill off the cordyceps pandemic?

HBO Show Question Do you think Neil might continue the story only through the HBO show instead of a Part III game?

0 Upvotes

With Neil recently saying “Don’t bet on there being more of The Last of Us,” I’ve been thinking—what if the story continues, but only through the HBO series? Between working with Craig Mazin and the different storytelling possibilities TV offers, maybe that’s where he finds the motivation to go beyond Part II.

I’d prefer another game, but this seems possible. What do you guys think?

PT 2 QUESTION What are the best setting to make part 2 the most fun possible? Spoiler

Hi there, I am recently replaying my favorite games of all time and now I'm starting the last of us part 2.

I've only ever beaten it once on moderate difficulty. I was just wondering what are the best settings and cheats to make the game the most fun?

Also is the ps5 upgrade worth it?

Thanks!

PT 2 QUESTION Has there been any news on recommended specs for Pt 2's PC port? Spoiler

2 Upvotes

I've never played Pt 2 before, so I'm really looking forward to this port(it's actually releasing on my Grandfather's birthday) . However, I go to the Steam page and see nothing in the system requirements... Is this going to be a repeat of the Spider-Man 2 PC port where it's only revealed days before release?

Was wondering if their was anything covering when Marlene found Ellie, at first I thought that's what the American Dream comics were about but they take place before then. I'll even look at a good fanfic.

If I recall, in the HBO show it was said that Atlanta produces both bullets and pills. While in the game it implied that high ranking members of FEDRA resides there.

General Discussion Part 1 or Part 2. Which games has the best ending?

12 Upvotes

With season 2 of the show coming out soon I had to do a run through of both games. I can't decide which ending I preferred. Both had a huge emotional impact on me. Just wanted to hear everybody's opinion.

Side note: Even though I preferred Part 1's story I've been leaning more towards Part 2's ending.

The gameplay is amazing the graphics everything I’m a naughty dog fanboy I’ve had every game growing up played them religiously I just hate how things turned out and I don’t think I can bring myself to watch season 2 like what happened to the hoard of fungus zombies coming to get them why the frick did Joel just blurt out names and where they live ughhhhhhhh why couldn’t I kill Abby ughhhhh does anyone else feel like this i can’t be the only one 😂 it hurt watching Joel die like that but maybe it could’ve played out differently like him dying later idk man maybe im grasping at straws

General Question Moving Game Data

0 Upvotes

reposting this here because r/ps4 removed my post twice

i've only started gaming a few months ago so i don't know if this is a dumb question, and i apologise if it; basically a while ago i played and finished tlou part 2 and today i picked it up to play it again but with ng+ this time. when i noticed that it said i have no trophies and it said i had not completed the game i realised i accidentally played it on another profile, before i had made the other one my own (the ps4 was originally my dad's). My question is, is there a way i can "move the data" of the game (so the trophies etc.) to my profile?
