True, it's all subjective. But I have yet to see a good argument against the notion that it didn't have a great story. There's many multi-hour videos on YouTube that have good breakdowns on why they felt the story didn't work.

Most of the time, the arguement against these breakdowns boil down to "You're just mad Joel died!" Which is utter nonsense. Yet, we're just supposed to accept that it's game of the year, and that it had an incred...

Yes... The users who gave it a 0 before playing it weren't fans, so they're not part of its fanbase... What are you even trying to argue?

I'm not denying that a lot of people liked it. Honestly, I'm impressed by how high its completion rate is considering how long it is. But that doesn't change that it's a divisive game. Yes there's those who despise it, but there's also a large amount of fans who'll defend everything about it, and would...

It would win best driving game if it were nominated, that's the sort of fanbase this game has. You could drive a horse, that's enough for them.

Regardless of how many awards The Last of Us 2 wins, it doesn't take away from the fact it has serious problems that were overlooked by most reviewers. Personally I thought the quality of writing was about as good as if you made a 20+ hour game out of the Mass Effect 3 ending.

I wouldn't call having plot holes an easter egg

It didn't even hold up when it released.

Just so long as it's not like Jak 2 we'll be fine I say.

Well considering this is a free optional feature that's probably more complicated than patching the games directly, I think people are fine with it.
Only PlayStation cultists will have serious complaints about it... Probably to make themselves feel better that they may not be getting such a feature.

That is an awfully strange thing to be laughing at... It just seems like you won an imaginary argument.

What? No Donny? Well that just killed all my hype for the Xbox release

Still my favourite Naughty Dog game. It's a shame they released a PS2 port instead of the PS3 remaster on PS4.

For god's sake, can't we have any news on Halo without PlayStation cultists coming in to spew hatred?

"This games gonna suck, god of war will be way better. why can't they make a cinematic third person story game instead? Tlou2 was the greatest game of all time after all"

Get lost, anyone who thinks God of War or The Last of Us 2 had great stories don't know what they're talking about. They get so caught up in the high quali...

Teaser trailer... Pretty sure that's what they're called

Literally no one expected it to be out this year, even after the trailer.

Looks like Diablo 3, only better. Which still isn't good. Diablo 2 destroys it.

The Last of Us 2 just won game of the year, what do you think?

1879d ago 0 agree7 disagreeView comment

Yeah, it completely ruined the personality of the characters. It's like Toy Story if Buzz and Woody became best friends immediately.

The gameplay tapered off towards the end, but it was fine overall. Definitely one of the weaker entries in the series though.

Or they could make Bad Company 3 and prioritize 12v12 rush mode again.

Gears 5 definitely looks better than God of War. Look away from up the up close character models or the interior lighting, and it doesn't even look that great. Atreus looks awful during gameplay at times.

And no, the Series X is more powerful, the SSD speed has next to no impact on this. The reason PlayStation exclusives usually look better is because they have higher quality first party studios. Maybe Microsoft's acquisitions can close the gap, but it's not goi...

It's not stunning, the game never looked as good as it was hyped up to be. Just look away from the up close character models and interior lighting, it can look downright mediocre at times.
