The Last of Us 2 confirmed for a September 2019 Release
I hope the game is fun
>game
Don't you mean movie?
false
2020
I thought Ghost of Tsushima would be their September open world game like Spiderman, and have end of October be TLOU2
Polish dienda
...
I couldn't care less.
Serious: Will this be the first time a non-rockstar or Nintendo game has gotten a 97 on Metacritic?
What about Tony Hawk's Pro Skater?
First one was shit on all levels. I can't really remember any positive moments. History was subpar, gameplay even worse, characters? meh. I bet only pedophiles liked that game, because they jerk off to the idea of being alone with little girl in a world with no police.
No,but it doesn't happen very often
> Chrono Trigger (1995, SNES, Square) (97)
> Tekken 3 (1998, Playstation, Namco) (97)
> SoulCalibur (1999, Dreamcast, Namco) (98)
> Metal Gear Solid (2000, GBC, Konami) (97)
> Code Veronica (2000, DC, Capcom) (97)
> Metal Gear Solid 2 (2001, Ps2, Konami) (97)
> Halo: Combat Evolved (2001, Xbox, Bungie) (97)
> Half-Life 2 (2004, PC, Valve Corporation) (97)
> Portal (2007, PC, Valve Corporation) (97)
> Bioshock (2007, PC, Irrational Games) (97)
The movie sequels are never as good as the original
There goes anyone else's Game of the Year award.
Is Kojima the only director with two 97 games?
The only deserving game on that list is CT and it should be a 98-99.
OMG!!! OMG!!! OMG!!!! I'M SO HAPPY I'M SHAKING!!!! AAAAAAAAA I'M FLAPPING MY HANDS AND JUMPING UP AND DOWN I FEEL LIKE A KID AGAIN!!! I'M SO SO SO EXCITED MY WIFE'S BOYFRIEND JUST CAME IN AND ASKED ME WHAT'S GOING ON!!!!!! THANK YOU SONY THANK YOU NAUGHTY DOG THIS IS THE HAPPIEST DAY OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!
JEBAĆ NAUGHTY DOG
JEBAĆ THE LAST OF US
ALE NAJWAŻNIEJSZE
JEBAC ŻYDÓW I CZARNUCHÓW
It will probably get a 98 or 99, the game is shaping up to be too perfect on every level
>best graphics for the generation
>best writing for the generation
>best animation for the generation
>best narrative/story for the generation
>best political stance for the generation
I can't imagine a game coming close to The Last of Us 2 for this generation as far as critical reception and possibly even commercial reception goes.
heh fuck snoy i will be too busy playing super Mario smash bros bing bing wahoo
name an uglier European language than Polish
No. Miyamoto has 7 (OOT, Mario 64, Metroid Prime, Galaxy 1-2, Mario World 2, Mario Bros 3), And Dan Houser has 6 (GTA III, GTA VC, GTA SA, GTA IV, GTA V, RDR2)
That’s great. It’s a good game, who are you planning on playing as? Maybe I could link you to a combo guide :)
Ok weeb
Miyamoto is not the director of all those games. He's mostly an advisor.
Also I believe Dan Houser mostly writes the games. They have separate gameplay director. Atleast it was the case for RDR2.
What about gameplay?
This, BOTW & TLOU2 will become this generations RE4 vs SoTC or FF7 vs OOT
The gameplay is fine and faultless, it's at the point where it's not really important towards making the game a timeless masterpiece.
Nah, BoTW is already forgotten.
This, Silent Hill 2 is a good example since it's gameplay is garbage but it's still considered a masterpiece anyway
Breath of the Wild isn't really important to this generation critically, it has less GotY Awards than GoW, and The Witcher 3, the higher point mark isn't really relevant either, had it gone up against these games it would have lost, hands down.
seething snoycel please have sex
nobody fucking cares
True, but it has already topped as many best game lists as Resident Evil 4 despite only being out for 2 years.
Seething, most normies genuinely care about this game. Hell even Yea Forums loved the original & is looking forward to this game
I can't believe there are actual people who care about TLOU2, holy shit.
That's a pretty irrelevant metric though, since there are far more of these lists than there were when RE4 released, Breath of the Wild has already been cut down critically and at this point it's closer to Bioshock Infinite, rather than The Last of Us, it won't last, it will be forgotten in time, and even overshadowed by other games.
>Breath of the Wild has already been cut down critically and at this point it's closer to Bioshock Infinite, rather than The Last of Us
No thanks, Activision is already highlighting the golden age of Naughty Dog while Cuckmann makes this gay shit because deep down he just wants to make movies
There are way more casuals posting here than you think, user.
Red Dead Redemption 2 would have been a more fair Bioshock Infinite comparison, BOTW is up there with Mass Effect 2, Red Dead Redemption & The Last of Us for most acclaimed game of the decade
Why do you guys act like there's a game of the generation award or some shit like that, that doesn't exist.
And even if it did why do you care what a bunch of casuals think is a good game anyway.
>Didn't even mention the bird man
You aren't very radicool dude
There is, for example
> Gen 5: Chrono Trigger
> Gen 6: Resident Evil 4
> Gen 7: Bioshock
> Gen 8: BOTW or TLOU 2
All of these were the definite winners of their generation, based on how they are remembered today
I don't see your problem, the game is looking to be the apex of this generation, just look at the animation tech they are pushing with the game, and it's narrative depth which we have only been able to scratch the surface of. It's the direct sequel to one of the more prominent pantheonic games. The Last of US as far as single player centric games go is the game with the biggest impact on games for this generations, you can just look at the amount of games it helped mould, just look at God of War, at one point an action game, now a cinematic narrative driven action game with a tighter camera, it's impact is self evident and long reaching, and commercially these games have had significant impact, The Last of Us sold 17 million units and God of War is the best selling the series has ever had, and by a wide margin, this shows that not only are gaming literati very much interested in these sorts of games, but so are consumers.
Nice counter argument.
An undeserved position though
You're right, it probably will score in that region and it'll be as boring a non-game as all of Naughty Dog's other recent crap.
>closer to launch than we thought
They revealed it 2016. More like it's about time.
Pro Skater 2 has a 96 & Pro Skater 3 has a 94 when you average their scores to their actual amount of reviews. I did forget RE4 though
Strong commercial acceptance ensures more games follow this formula, continued existence is desired, definitely.
I don't give a shit about woke garbage.
Reminder that TLOU ruined the industry, making all the generic, Hollywood, cinematic shit mainstream to games, also plaguing with that faggy bow and arrow shit.
German
> Gen 8: BOTW or TLOU 2
So what happens when TLOU2 is forgotten about a month after launch and the only threads made are like that one fag posting shitty dad jokes to try and get nu-GoW discussion going?
>according to Polish retailer
yeah no, I’ll believe it when Sony themselves come out and say it
Wrong. Call of Duty, Assasin's Creed & Batman Arkham Asylum ruined the industry
It will be universally circlejerked all over the internet outside Yea Forums, same like TLOU1
Then we're fucked because all we're getting is more TLOU shit.
I really can't tell if you're being ironic or not man, I mean with all your talk about cinematic and animations, I'm just not sure. Also yeah it inspired God of War, that's not much after 7 years.
It inspired a whole line of copy cats, but also shaped them too, look at Ghosts of Tsushima, or Horizon Zero Dawn, all games that follow a similar story driven formula although slaves to the genre's they exist within they still follow beats driven by The Last of Us, which a lot of people maybe aren't aware of how well it sold, it sold 17 million units, few games sell that much, few even make it into that bracket, most games that get constant threads here sell nothing compared to this.
It just sounds to me that Sony forced all their studios to make TLOU clones instead of their own thing.
>fun
stop using buzzwords
You're giving too much credit to those studios.
Not really, Sony doesn't force their studios to do certain things the way Electronic Arts does
It just happens that several studios owned by Sony have the same sensibility towards single-player narrative-driven games
>Metal Gear Solid (2000, GBC, Konami) (97)
>GBC
wut
Don't forget about over the shoulder with unskippable walk and talk parts.
Metal Gear Ghost Babel is one of the best games in the franchise.
Damn, big fan but never even thought to play it. I'll check it out.
I won't buy this western garbage or any PS4.
Additional reminder that its more casual than a pantsu shooter and would be easier to play 1 handed than the boob game equivalent
Pantsu game
>No dodgy hitboxes
>fair but hard difficulty(no cheap hitscan accuracy increases or damage sponge bs)
>no automatic or sliding melee
>no interruption mid level, only the occasional(skippable) VN segment at the start and end of each chapter and before each boss
>intense boss fights that are ALL gameplay; no QTE or cutscenes mid stage
>Aggressive enemies that won't just take a pot shot, and if they hit you fuck off elsewhere.
>Enemies can and will attack in groups instead of just stepping around so you only face one at a time but it looks like you're facing more than one
>Final bosses have brutal gauntlets that test your skills to the highest extent and will maul you for thinking they'll be easy before pitting you against a boss that's fast, smart and aggressive while still slamming you with other enemies forcing you to play smart and fast yourself.
Who cares?
Not me, I'm done with Naughty Dog.
HOW MANY FUCKING TIMES DO I HAVE TO READ "DUDE THIS RETAILER IN SOME 3RD WORLD SHITHOLE SAYS TLOU2 IS COMING OUT ON [INSERT DATE]!!!!"
HAVEN'T YOU LEARNED BY NOW TO WAIT TILL THE DEVS AND PUBLISHER MAKE IT OFFICIAL? IT GETS TIRING SEEING PEOPLE HYPE UP RELEASE DATES THAT ARE MOST LIKELY NEVER REAL
FUCK
YES I'M MAD
what is this? bullet girls?
>Polish
Just another lie.
When I see this kind of thread I simply cannot wait until the game eventually releases and the catalog being half-filled with discussion about its content just like it was with GoW and Spider-Man a fw months back.
Never change Yea Forums
How would TLoU be if Joel was a woman and Ellie was a boy?
>buying california:the game
I too like to show how little I care about a video game by jumping into a thread and posting how little I care about said video game
Dutch
Yeah
You can actually pull off some pretty complex stuff when you master it
Tsukiyo(the girl in the pic to the post you replied too
>use her custom sniper since its strong enough to strip on impact most weak enemies
>learn how much it recoils
>You can target the shot that you can get two articles of clothing before the girl hits the ground if you got the shot lined up right(legs to chest is easiest, legs to waist and legs to sleeve if you can correct your aim fast enough are the hardest)
Minagi(pic-related)
>due to being the fastest she can weave between bullets from Snipers and ARs
>bait a sniper to fire a bullet in front of you
>charge them before they fire the next bullet and gun their waist or chest(both if possible)
>Sword slash them once your close enough
>shower them in bullets
Yurina
>Use her for stealth missions
>Place a mine and fire a bullet out of sight of your target but near enough they hear it.
>Leg it before they get to you and the mine goes off
>Mine blows up pulling most to all enemies out of the way making your path easier to get around
1 and 2 are better than Phantasia from a gameplay and variety perspective but controls are way better in Phantasia
There's some neat stuff you can learn with Mai and also using Tsukiyo's smoke bombs and throwing knives to stun enemies to line up shots of multiple targets. Aki can also chain her rocket launcher to nuke an enemy and send them flying up with each shot.
Don't let the boobs fool you. The game has a lot of depth.
It may have had some actual doujin in Japan considering /ss/ conent is rather rare.
An old friend once told me
>if it's not fun, why bother
>people here talk about games that come out, and other people are talking about
Wow what a shock, Yea Forums btfo.
>le angry stronk independent dyke who don't need no man
>men slaughter a la nu-Tomb Raider
>ebin cinematic experience
How much soi you'd need in your body to be able to play this trash without cringing to death?
tranny game
By design, a post-apocalyptic pre-recivilisation setting CANNOT have trannies, as the society is not safe or affluent enough to create or support them. I guess it could have cross-dressers but even then they would probably be killed or ostracised.
Didn't they tweet something about finishing voice acting recordings just days ago? There's at least 1 more year
That means mocap is done, and since 3D artists are totally separate from mocapping in terms of asset creation it's not unreasonable to be pretty close to finishing. Even moreso if this was reshoots, then they'd be nearly done.
So when is the movie trailer going to drop?
fun? why would you need fun when you can have cinematic political activism?
Dutch is fucking goofy
They're really shoving that timeframe with a lot of games aren't they?
Pokemon and Animal crossing are already enough to be afraid of, and then borderlands 3
godverdomme nou ophouden met dat gelul he
Donder jezelf van een brug, vieze kut.
Look at this shit, it's like something that garden gnomes speak
Jesus, Ellie hasn't aged well.
kanker
>Animal crossing
didnt it get de-listed from Nintendos site recently?
September-November is usually the dumping ground for AAA releases with everyone trying to avoid eachother's release week.
Oh boy, I get to watch a movie about a zombie immune lesbian making out with a goblina Jew.
>imfuckingplying
They JUST finished shooting cinematics, those are usually done first
I really thought it would come out on May( Mother’s Day), the first game came out around Father’s Day, the dlc around valentines, so for obvious reasons I thought the 2nd game would follow that trend but well
I just really need this game
If they actually have these games coming out why the fuck wouldn’t they show up to E3? E3 sucks is not a valid answer
>Snoyboys can't make a thread without immediately bringing up Nintendo because they wont post in it
the absolute state of this fanbase
Because Sony went full retard and made fools of themselves.
No one sat down and asked themselves why they open the seating areas usually 20-30 minutes before the conference starts.
>Polish Retailer

I just hope the game is darker, more violent and more horror. The Road kinda bleakness. Manhunt kind of stealth violence. Trailers and gameplay have been in that direction.
This is one of those games I'll buy on PSN for $20 a year after release.
Show me the avengers spoilers.
I dont buy from progressive companies, neither should you.
PC is getting the superior cinematic game this year though
