No New The Last of Us Game or TV Show Announcements Tomorrow

The news is: there is no news 😉

Just kidding of course

Always down for some TLoU merch

I’d rather see a new Uncharted following Sam or Chloe or Charlie. There’s still plenty fun to be had from that franchise.

Don't know why people get excited for this day year after year when nothing interesting happens lol

Just officially cancel Factions 2 at that point lol

I dont understand why every game thinks it needs to have a day dedicated to it forever. Such a stupid idea.

The strike just ended, so they'll go ahead with the show immediately.

@NeonTiger isn't there just a tentative deal with the writers only?

I'm still waiting for something good from N7 day.

Once again... no new games from Sony. Lol

Need a gritty Crash Bandicoot reboot with guns, lGQBT's, Bitcoin and segway racing across a desolate neo apocalypse Australia...

@Ken_Kaniff TLOU is a pretty big deal and has a very vocal fanbase. Stop pretending every game has a day dedicated to it

Not even a tiny vr mode for the remake ? snif

@zupertramp Yes, for now. I imagine the actors are also anxiously awaiting the details to use in their own negotiations.

@theMEGAniggle "TLOU is a pretty big deal and has a very vocal fanbase." So do many other games and movies. I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but what makes them special enough that they deserve a day dedicated to them?

@Ken_Kaniff Just don't participate in it or ignore it? That'll help you out so you're not so triggered by it.

@Ken_Kaniff Because people still think this is the greatest game ever?

Pretty hard to believe that ND simply botched Factions 2, which ought to be a killer app that makes PS+ indispensable. Feels like something political went down, or it was decided it absolutely had to be larded with live servicey B.S. Either way it's a disaster.

What a way to kill any excitement - I suppose this is the way things are done now to avoid blowback from disappointed gamers but this whole “nothing you want to see will be announced but please celebrate with us by buying our merchandise ” is equally terrible.

This game never clicked with me. I found the characters hard to like and i thought the story was pretty average. I remember in the 80's when every other movie in my local video shop was a post apocalyptic story that always had one character that held the key to the survival of the human race. This game has had more remakes,remasters than any title i can think of and i'm surprised part 2 has not had a native ps5 remake or remaster yet but i bet its coming at some point. Naughty dog's well of creativity seems to have run dry but that wont stop them milking this game ad infinitum. Oh and i'm not saying the games a load of crap its just not for me.

@Ken_Kaniff i get you. Seems some people cant get behind the fact that people have differing opinions.

People are "shocked" that it is 3 years after TLOU 2 and we don't even have the announcement of what's next for ND. Especially since ND tended to release at least one game every three years.

Get used to it. Game development takes 5 years at minimum. If you are making new IP it's even more. That's just reality of game development. And their Factions project basically got soft-rebooted because Bungie played it and thought it was ***** in terms of staying power.

So this is not surprising.

@Northern_munkey I think that crown goes to Skyrim.

@IslandLogic what makes TLOU special?? It kinda shaped a whole genre of games. The story and gameplay resonated with so many people it was claimed as GAME OF ITS GENERATION. I really don't have to say more. I don't see it as that but you cannot deny the impact it had and still has

@theMEGAniggle In terms of story? Maybe. In terms of gameplay? hardly. TLOU gameplay is average at best and nothing special. You are playing because you want to progress story, not other way around.

@Godot25 The gameplay and AI at the time were heavily praised which is why the game as a whole was so impactful. Obviously a whole 10 years later and copied by many games, the gameplay is average at best now

@theMEGAniggle What? Ellie's AI was one of the few points of criticism that game received.
And gameplay was mainly praised because it was visceral, not because actual mechanics were that great.
As I said. You played the game because you wanted to see where the story goes next. Not because mechanics of said gameplay were great.

@Godot25 right, so ignore everything that was written and praised about the game because your opinion is correct. Got it.

Some friendly AI behaviours were annoying but the enemy AI, the way they looked for you, the way your buddies helped in combat, the actual realism and endurance the combat added, scarcity of ammo, melee, puzzles, exploration were highly praised. I remember because it's what drove me to get a copy. And the internet exists so you can easily look it up to corroborate your opinion. We can all sit there and do revisionism like you are but I don't consider that to be productive.

Is there a link somewhere to the livestream?
