this game was emotionally destroying.

[@Maaden84]

Yes, so fucking good, I felt everything playing this. The story is built up to perfection.

[@kyliesmith9199]

Yeah, it definitely was. It was meant to be that way, but at one point in the game, I really considered taking a break from it but I was so close to the end so I didn't

[@AlxndrJG]

Kylie Smith i had a whole week off on release. By the fourth day of playing, credits rolled, and I literally slept for an entire day. I was exhausted!!!

[@willianroomer3102]

Definitely! No game has ever made me feel this way. I stood 3 days thinking about it after I finished playing!

[@beardown-gmb359]

Dude, I don’t cry for video games or movies often...but I cried about for this one for a solid two days. Now every time I scroll pass it to play something else, I feel those emotions for a brief time until I forget them, which was probably one if their goals.

[@dreamzdziner8484]

Games are getting more serious than movies in this era. The level of details to those environments as well as character is beyond words. They are more like real than a game.

[@ghostofdeath663]

They're better it's quite obvious that 10+ game will have better written and better developed characters than just 2 hours movies lol

[@Davidman3976]

The problem is that sometimes they forget a videogame belongs to its own medium. A videogame isn't a movie and should never be. That leads to highly scripted games like this that aren't really very fun to play and aren't replayable at all. TLOU2 is more an interactive movie than a videogame.

[@valeryvelez4624]

Thats why games are 60 and up dollars

[@mrniz461]

[@JJ-ub3mw]

Troy said they wanted to make a game that people will love or hate. They definitely succeeded. I personally loved it, I kind of get the hate, but not the intensity of it.

[@ElizabethMcQMusic]

Honestly...I love this game & I love the story of the whole game actually 😀 You have to really understand & grasp both sides (Ellie's & Abby's) to understand the end of the game & that's what I think a lot of people aren't getting/understanding. I have my own opinion of understanding of the ending if you'd like to read & you can tell me what you think if you'd like & you can tell me yours too if you'd like 😀

[@TheChaosverein]

@@ElizabethMcQMusic i hate this argumentation so much. " A lot arent getting it". Trust me, they do. There are reasons to like it, there are reasons to hate it. But thinking players hated the game, just beacuse they couldnt grasp it, is just dumb.

[@asuna3008]

@@TheChaosverein it's obvious that most people aren't getting it, they just wanted to kill abby and end everything. they just say "this ruined the game", but they don't see how ellie wanted to finish the violence circle

[@TheChaosverein]

@@asuna3008 She ended the cycle by killing like 200 people who had nothing to do with that. I get that this game is about forgiveness and all that,but the gameplay just doesnt match that.

[@Lightly_Saltyago]

I completely agree. Some people are so angry about it. And Abby's voice actor getting death threats, whoa. Totally uncalled for. Also people saying it's "trash"...I mean that's just dramatic. I even watched a review on YT where someone said that Ellie was interesting in the first game, but is a one dimensional stereotype in the second game. I mean wow, it's like we weren't even playing the same game. They aged her up really well and her character's progression made a lot of sense to me. I feel like some people's opinions were formed before they even played, or they had certain expectations that weren't met, and thus were unable to even experience any of the detail and depth that this game really has. It's like, if you stop complaining about it for two seconds, and let it give you an experience, you might appreciate the amazing work that it is even if you disagree with the decisions made. lol

[@neatznotso7424]

Hells yeahs! I finished it, felt a bit broken, but also couldn't stop thinking about it, and then woke up and started it again. I'm contemplating a third run-through at the moment. It was just as good the second time through, less emotional but I also caught a lot that I'd missed the first time round.

[@thebeamerdreamer]

I too share the same feeling with y'all

[@christiant.g.994]

I've never before felt such an emotional exhaustion after finishing a game. Still not finished processing it, but regardless I'm happy I played it. It's something truly unique and I'm sure many developers will draw inspiration from it for years to come in spite of its truly polarized reception. Too many AAA games try to cater to the audience, I'm glad they had their own vision and stuck to it.

[@titaa56]

Yes, this stays with you like a tattoo on your skin. It’s very haunting in a good bad up and down and all crazy sort of way. Kinda incredible how a game can elicit such crazy emotions out of you!! I think this is proof that this game was a low key very successful accomplishment, even though we may hate sooooooo much things in it!! This game is a masterpiece. There’s no other way of putting it. Now I feel like Ellie, I don’t sleep..I can’t eat.. I’m just haunted and still want some more..I need to go back to that world

Did they deserve to die? Nope, they didn't. If I ever play this game again, it'll be my goal to get around without killing the dogs.

The fact that this game made us all feel some type of way about it regardless if it was good or bad shows that ND did there job me personally i enjoyed the game i loved it if I'm gonna be honest with you i think the 2nd game better then the first the way this game made me feel at end pissed me off because for a few days i felt empty didn't play the game in general for a few days the game made me really feel empty and i never felt that playing a game i was trying to rap my head around the way i felt this game is beautiful and this is 100% the most beautiful game i ever played a game I'll never forget

[@naramurasaki]

It was all fun and laughs until the song started up. Knowing what I know now, after having beaten Part II, I'm bawling. Ashley and Troy have incredible voices. I'm still caught off-guard by how well Ashley sings, even though I know her normal speaking voice is beautiful. And with Troy being a musician originally, it's amazing hearing him be able to carry Joel into a song. Phenomenal cast.

[@gabbyvelasquez3767]

never has a game made me feel so many emotions tbh, it ranged from happiness to full on sobbing with tears, then numbness, and then absolute fear (the skyscraper and the bottom floors of the hospital 👀). the moments with dina and ellie lifted my soul i really needed their dynamic to feel better.

[@Mariomario-gt4oy]

This is such a great game and emotional roller coaster! Loved seeing Ellie find her closure and Abby able to get redemption and a purpose for her life.

[@jhunt5578]

The game is a masterpiece. The only people who dislike the game are the ones who still want vengeance and didn't learn from the theme.

Well Ummm No The theme of this game was just some elementary school bullshit

And according to the metacritic user reviews, they can’t write past a 3rd grade level, either.

Day made. This was exactly what I needed today. “Look for the light!” 💖✊🏾

[@titaa56]

this stays with you like a tattoo on your skin. It’s very haunting in a good bad up and down and all crazy sort of way. Kinda incredible how a game can elicit such crazy emotions out of you and you STILL can’t get it out of your mind!! I think this is proof that this game was a low key very successful accomplishment, even though we may hate sooooooo much things in it!! This game is a masterpiece. There’s no other way of putting it. Now I feel like Ellie, I don’t sleep..I can’t eat.. I’m just haunted and still want some more..I need to go back to that world

I've played this game four times and "that scene" never gets any easier to watch. In contrast, the music shop scene where Ellie plays Aha makes my heart throb.

[@JammesNova]

Video games are modern masterpieces of interactive artwork. It employs hundreds and sometimes thousands of people and takes years to build. Artists, actors, coders, musicians, writers, colorists, etc... all employed with the goal of immersing the player to experience an imaginary world. This game revolutionizes this artform. It takes it to a level not yet seen before - I played this game and I am convinced the characters and the situations are real... Even days after i finished the game the experience lingered on in my heart and soul. This game is absolutely genius... I make art for a living - I hope in my lifetime I can be a part of something so amazing. I am publicly congratulating Neil and all the Naughty Dog team on an absolute masterpiece. Your excellence is inspiring and its absolutely evident that you all poured ALL of you into every inch of this world. I am honored to have experienced a piece of your heartfelt labor of love.

Troy is honestly a REALLY SOLID guitarist. time is great, tone is consistent, sounds very sure of himself and very practiced. even if he didnt practice his ass off to nail this performance, that only proves that he's very fundamentally sound as a guitarist. Everything about this team and cast screams virtuosity and i love it; be it Last of Us III or something completely different, i need more of their art/work
