@chubby170: it worked pretty well for us. and in most cases you don't have time to put down the controller, so you had to hold it elevated, which created a lot of tension. i liked it so much more than pressing X, god that was so bad.
i play 90% of my games alone (or online), but this is really one that is so much more fun with friends. you got no friends that are into videogames?
@goldenageplayer: i miss factions, but the game is so huge i can't fault anyone for not including it. i am sad about it, and i'm not sure i'll buy a standalone factions. it always felt weird to me to buy an online-only game.
new game plus is supposedly harder than the same difficulty on new game, that's what the game says when you select it. i haven't tried it yet, starting survivor+ this weekend (oh wait, that's tonight!). i imagine the added difficulty will get compensated by the player and weapon upgrades.
i know they do not plan on releasing dlc for this, but i do hope they'll add grounded mode.
@Theo1971: i'm on the edge about it to be honest. i wanna watch some gameplay first. i love playing as a samurai, but i'm not a big fan of open worlds and the amount of boring sidequests that come with it, which i sadly HAVE to complete, because i'm a completionist gamer :(
once i'm really done with the last of us i was thinking about checking out Control. it looked pretty sweet and i like mystery stuff. did you play that?
@Theo1971: well you sound far more reasonable now than in your first comment, which honestly sounded almost like trolling. i don't want to convince you to like the story either, it's fine if you don't, but the stuff you wrote was just so wrong. maybe you just exaggerated extremely. using "ghandi" to describe the most gruesome and uncomfortable fight i have ever seen in a videogame triggered me i guess.
cheers to you too. may your next game be more after your taste!
@boobytrap: i felt exactly the same. i didn't move my controller for a couple of minutes after the "strike" prompt appeared. it was just too much at that point.
@kuchiki-ness: old drake gets killed because of an artifact he stole somewhere and this triggers his daughter to step into his shoes and become the next "Draaaaake!" (Lazarevich's voice).
@Cikatriz_ESP: i doubt there will be a last of us 3. it really doesn't seem like the series that gets milked. i think they were thinking long and hard about even making part 2.
sorry to hear Abby didn't click for you. i loved her. plus her part is so awesome to play, really loved the encounters in the 2nd half.
isn't your name a mars volta song? i used to listen to them and at the drive-in a lot. maybe it has a different meaning though.
