The Last of Us 2

actually has great gameplay?

No.

you really think so? that is...really fucking sad.

Video games should only be made by East Asian people.

/thread

Third person stealth action games where you have access to a risk free silent instant kill ranged weapon are just stupid, and that's basically every third person stealth action game released in the last 15 years.

No Factions 2 means Naughty Dog bit off more than it could chew.

it's so kino kojima loves it

Truth

what is it with the west and giving their ugly female protags eyebrow scars and bows?

I still don't understand why they scraped multiplayer and instead gave a weird rogue like mode

Premeditated gameplay

Wonder how many tries it took them to get it right.

it plays alot better than the first game but almost everything else is a downgrade. I still prefer uncharted over it though

Looks like a standard boring scripted stealth cover shooter to me

hope druckmann sees this bro

To this day I still can't believe that they didn't make it possible for enemies to get alerted via the sound from you or something landing

why the fuck would people in a zombie outbreak act like a bunch of retards killing each other instead of just working together to get rid of all the zombies?

lmao
imagine trying this hard to make it look good and it's still looks like dogshit

Because kikes desperately want society to fracture.

I mean what's better about TLOU than say MGSV a game that came out literally 10 years ago?
Like a lot of Sony games TLOU just feels kind of one note and uncreative. Realistic only in ways that make the game more boring.

This. So much this.
I REALLY liked that part where you walk in a corridor and we are told to be better men and that revenge bad
absolute masterpiece

Actual realistic stealth mechanics and smart AI would make stealth games impossible for the average stealth gamer

how else would you tell a grim, nihilistic story

This is one of those

replay a section of a game many times, perfectly know enemy placement / movements

do certain actions to evoke scripted reactions from these enemies

WOW LOOK AT HOW FLUID AND REALISTIC THE GAMEPLAY IS!

Same shit they used to do when E3 was still a think for '''live''' demos.

woman being competent at something

I can't suspend my disbelief that much, takes me out of it.

TLOU is good exactly because its gameplay looks completely unappealing to watch from an external perspective once you get over some novelties.

It's a true through and through game. It can only be understood and appreciated within the experience on grounded. Literally nothing that happened here means anything without context. And that context is fundamentally intricated with gameplay. Not even just instantiated gameplay, but both past and future gameplay in a sense. The current goal doesn't really encapsulate things.

One thing i noticed for example is the use of the Nail Bomb at the car. Using the car window as a bait was a really good thing and something i should keep in mind whenever next i get around to finishing TLOU.

But wasting one nail bomb...on one guy? That's insanity. I wouldn't even do such a thing as a joke. (And i would never replay and tarnish a good game)

Which either tells me, they're not playing on grounded. Or they're just being retarded for a clip. Which, maybe for unbiased non Anon Babbletards who want to see le cool manipulation of AI. That's cool. But i imagine for somebody who is actually a good videogamer and plays on Grounded. It just looks retarded and unimpressive.

because people have fought and killed each other over resources without the threat of a zombie infestation, and a zombie infestation that kneecaps global trade and manufacturing results in massive resource scarcity planet wide

I guess you didn't notice people behaving like subhumans during the global pandemic, much less a zombie outbreak

Yeah the gameplay is so great that 99% of the time there's threads about it, it's never shown

I don't care if it could blow me. I ain't playing that garbage.

i'm a covid negationist, the pandemic was planned and it was a modified strain of flu

TLOU is good

Stopped reading right here
Go back

why won't people record themselves playing video games on Anon Babble, the place where nobody cares about gameplay and cries about aesthetics all day

to record gameplay one would have to play the game, and most of you tards would never do that

For me it's Santa Barbara Ellie

Absolutely
Metal Gear Solid hasn't been good since the first game

With sound.

Dude, you on crack? 2 had some of the most brilliant dialogue in any videogame of all time, it predicted the future and was influenced by highly intelligent post-modernist philosophers.
3 upped the entire franchise up a notch, it was a masterpiece and it runs in smooth 60 frames on modern consoles. What's not to like?
4... 4 was a tech demo.
5 is brilliant ludo. Fun as hell.
Peace Walker - as a PSP title, a 9/10. As anything else, pure dogshit.

I love that MGSV can only be loved by doing mental gymnastics about muh phantom pain to excuse the reality that Konami and Kojimbo screwed the pooch and released an unfinished game. it controlled very well and some interactions were good, but the environments were lackluster and the mission structure was like 90% padding, and the game had TWO bosses, both of which are the bottom two bosses in the franchise.

the gameplay is basic and shallow

there's zero creative idea and in true playstation first party fashion it's much more interested in looking cinematic than having any sort of complexity or depth, which btw is what sony fanboys mean when they say it has good gameplay: they mean it looks cool and has good animations

bosses are easily the worst part of every mgs game

Watching cutscenes and scripted interactions in a corridor is not "gameplay".
Dogshit "game". I'm glad snoy's pozzed garbage is moving to netfliz which is where they belong

rewrite this and replace zombie with nigger and you'll see why

But nobody goes around pretending that zombies are humans, and just need more "opportunities" in order to get ahead in life.

Reminder this board considers this the greatest game ever made and they wanna lecture you on muh gameplay

not even close

MGS1- forced backtracking sequence to get the sniper

MGS2 - timed underwater escort mission

MGS3 - this one I'll give you, The Fury and The Sorrow are pretty lame fights, but 3 is generally stellar outside of excessive menuing

MGS4 - the incredibly lopsided gameplay to cutscene ratio

Yeah. It's basically MGS5 done right. Too bad the story and characters are garbage.

any sort of complexity or depth

this, story driven stealth games should be autistic spreadsheet emulators with RPG elements and flashing healthbars, otherwise it's forced (overly animated) gameplay

Reminder that you will always be a fucking retard.

Cleared this section of the game yesterday on PC and yes, it is indeed a really good fucking game. I don't understand why you were all hating on it (aside from the lesbian/jewish shit).

If your game can be watched on youtube without missing a single minute of "content", than it has shitty gameplay and you failed.
Snoy is shit. Cuckmann is a hack.
You're a faggot and reddit is that way

The enemies in TLOU are much more advanced and work together to pull you out of cover and will actually use stealth against you.
MGSV is actually regressive from its predecessors because they had to compromise for the open world design.

if you're mom can get arseraped without missing a single minute of "consent", she a whore KEK!

this game has the best gameplay options ive ever seen, there are sliders for everything. i put everything on the hardest level, except for the ammo drops which i put to the easiest.
the animations and ai are exemplary
too bad about the lesbian jewish shit, even though the idea of abby (a random npc's daughter you killed in the last game wants revenge) is the perfect way to go for a sequel. it perfectly fits the chaotic, grounded atmosphere, but then you go through a synogauge for 20 minutes with your jewish lesbian gf
but video games are about gameplay so id give the game a very positive review

Any mods yet?

braindead npcs standing around waiting to be killed and then all run into a killzone when they hear a noise

Is this fun? It doesn't look it

The Gays of Us

TLOU 2 has to be deliberately fucked up with "cheats" to have any semblance of fun

Shit game.

Game still just barely came out, give it time...

But enough about MGS

Don't waste your time arguing with brown teenagers.

it's actually funny how a manly woman has filtered all the Anon Babbletards from playing a game that actually has fun combat. while you foam at the mouth i'll be enjoying my no return daily run. later nerds

You consume literal jewish demoralization propaganda out of your own willm
You have no right to call anyone brown, you're the nigger cattle here.

No one likes MGS for the gameplay

21 years later and we still haven't surpassed metal gear solid 3

I can agree that it was probably a modified virus but I doubt that it was planned. I can almost guarantee you it was just some retarded chink forgetting to disinfect after a day in the lab or something

This looks exactly like every other western game with stealth elements and third person shooting.

Uncharted 4 has great gameplay, but most of the game you are just climbing on rock walls while listening to marvel-tier dialog from your annoying NPC companions.
If TLOU2 is anything like UC4, a boring movie that prioritizes walkable cutscenes over fun, its a shit game too.

The outbreak is already over in tlou

Uhhh your media literacy license? Humans are always the real monsters.

They would've had to allocate at least 150 of their 490+ total staff onto the project which would've meant their mainline projects would have taken even longer. It was supposed to be a f2p live service game that used the Last of Us IP, so they needed to provide continual support instead of pump and dumping it like previous projects. Either Sony or ND were not budging on the recruitment.

This is why naughty dog is the biggest waste of talent in the industry. Uncharted 4 was the only time I thought a shooter felt good on a controller and it feels like there's maybe 2 hours of gameplay out of a 15 hour game.

He loves everything

best gameplay and combat arenas in the franchise

the entire front half of the game is walking and talking and boring platforming

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

One of the big plot points in TLOU2 is the ongoing war between two factions that were not in the first game and did not receive an actual explanation as to why they are at war past "uhhh because the other side killed someone years ago!" And other extremely vague examples.
The reason is ND is just not talented enough to write conflict that feels palpable, so any and all actions in the story are taken to the extreme degree that warrants another extreme reaction from the rest of the characters. Example:

Joel killed my dad, so I have to kill Joel

Abby killed my dad, so I have to kill all of her friends

This woman was in the room when Joel was killed, so I have to torture her

Hardly anything is meditated by the characters and hardly any decisions are taken with sensibility or thought.

you know the worst part. They took out the hoard mode levels in the PC release. I might have bought it for those alone.

didnt receive actual explanation

Because the jew's argument is that the israel-palestine conflict was pointless, it's deliberately written like that

Hence why no multiplayer was such a downgrade. It was the one thing that made the otherwise generic TLOU stand out.

TLOU mp was fun but ruined by p2w DLC perks. I remember one where it stopped you getting stunned by your own smoke bombs that was ridiculous when combined with the instakill shivs.

fpbp

because the writers are nihilist theater kids who hate the world.

massive theater kid faggot hires another massive theater kid faggot. They should hire Yoko Ono next.

The Gameplay was not what people complained about with Last Of Us 2. In the same way nobody was complaining about the cinematography for Last Jedi.

Every single time someone wants to show TLOU2 gameplay, its always that area. It doesnt help the case of not being just a movie game

My favorite combat sections were the suburbs in Seattle. Doesn't feel like a movie game to me.

replay a section of a game many times, perfectly know enemy placement / movements

But I was told by those same people that doing that for Sonic was BAD game design.
Oddly those same people love Sonic Heroes style chatter where everything is commented on.
Is it really just because it's got "realistic" humans instead of talking animals?

is it possible to skip cutscenes on replays?
also how is the rogue mode?

Pretty sure there's no restrictions on cutscenes.
No Survivor is ok but it feels rushed. All of the content is recycled from the story just in isolated arenas and there isn't much mission variety. I played enough of it to unlock all the skins and have no desire to try it again.

hurr it's a silenced weapon so nobody can hear it

Games that do this are cinemaslop for braindead moviefags. If you have EVER in your LIFE heard a real silenced weapon fired, this immediately pulls you out of the game because it's fake and gay Sloppywood shit.

Movies that do it pull me out. For games it's just a mechanic.

TLOU2 is worse than some Ubisoft games. Let that sink in. Plus the characters and voice acting is horrible.
TLOU1 is so much better in this regard it's unreal how hard they messed up with the sequel.
Besides Naughty Dog is a shit company.

i chortled
why didnt they use daggerfalls impact sounds instead of just the wooshing sound anyway?

When at that level of fuck up you can't just "oh lol lets be friends and work together!"
If you let randoms into your settlement, like 50/50 chance they're scouting for another group to take over the resources.
Modern life is basically a utopia in comparison.

I hate when characters die too easy. So childish

I got burned out of TPS games in that generation, so when i look at TloU, i just go all "yep, i already played this game", and i probably did, and did played better versions of it like vanquish, splinter cell...

you can really feel its a ps4 game because they go heavy on the slow walking talking moments because of the ps4 hdd. its still happens on ps5 and pc with gen 5 ssd.

it was a modified strain of flu

Nah it was a modified variant of SARS or "the common cold."

The gunplay and killing people is satisfying but the scenarios you are put in are pretty repetitive and uninspired

Uncharted 4 was the only time I thought a shooter felt good on a controller

cimematic slop with aim assist up the ass

great "gameplay" faggots lmao

It’s a generic tps with stealth mechanics.

Aww shit he's doing the zanzibart shuffle

yeah too bad you have to sit through 6 hours of dog shit cutscenes to get to the gameplay

this kills the Anon Babble pajeet

culture war retards ITT pretending the gameplay is bad because they think the game is "woke"

it is ok for games to compromise realism if it makes for a more enjoyable experience in gameplay

It's boring dude, not even the "roguelike" mode safes it

Nah, it is bad because its the same exact shit as every other game of the PS360 era.
Americans in charge of game development are just not very good at all, because they all just copy each other much more than the japanese devs.
TLOU is just gears of war but the walking dead.

do you think gears of war invented over the shoulder 3rd person shooters

True. Go too far into realism and you get GTAIV driving. Was it more realistic than GTA:SA or GTAV? Yeah. But was it more fun? No.

The dumbest guy I know in real life says this game is a masterpiece. He hasn't beaten it, though.

No i don't, but i think everyone saw it and said "i want to do this exact game because you can make it very cinematic", and they did.
