The first game meant so much to me. An amazing feat of storytelling that was loved by nearly everyone. An artistic and technological achievement that pushed what we knew video games to be. I can’t say enough good things about The Last of Us. It evoked emotion like no game before it, and will always stay with me.
Needless to say, the sequel I had been anticipating ever since it’s announcement. Where would these characters be? Was Joel dead?
Naught Dog teased us, hard. Finally, the gameplay trailer came out, introducing us to new characters, new places, an even grittier setting. I was all in.
I binged at least half the game over a weekend, immersed, enthralled, pissed. They threw a wrench in it. How did I ultimately feel after completing it? Check out this review to find out.
