| The Last of Us Remastered Hits PlayStation 4  |
Some games transcend our environment. They take us into a different world that is so immersive that we begin to feel it is real to us. When that happens, they stay with us not just for days or weeks, but for a lifetime, as a favorite book or song simply settles in the soul.
So I will list the reasons why The Last of Us has the rank for many of the best game ever made.
Since his announcement, The Last of Us walked in the shadows of Uncharted. The explanation is that since starting its activities in the current Sony console, the PS3. Naughty Dog invested in a new franchise that ended up becoming one of the best exclusives of the console, justifying for many the purchase of the video game just to play the trilogy of Drake. I believe that no match has ever been as perfect as the Last Of Us, from narrative, combat, and gameplay. Of course, this is just an opinion! Let me show the reasons that make me love The Last of Us.
Be careful to continue because we will have many SPOILERS ahead. And today I will bring you the reasons "The Last of Us" is one of the best games in history:

The Last Of Us (Original Score) Vol. 1 |
The plot of The Last of Us is an excellent example that games can also tell a story worthy of a literary work. The plot revolves around Joel, who after tragically losing his daughter, has to find motivations to live in a world dominated by chaos after massive contamination that transforms humans into horrifying creatures.
Joel's path ends up crossing Ellie, a teenage girl who may possess the cure for the virus that pollutes the world. But in addition to protecting her, Joel begins to nurture a relationship of father and daughter, which he never imagined he could experience again. On top of this relationship, the plot unfolds in a very well scripted way. From troubled and full of insecurities between the two characters, until the paternal love of the protagonist occurs. It seems a bit drawn to the sentimental side, the story fits into a thriller that moves the player. Making him fight for the survival and fatigue of reaching the next checkpoint.

This charisma of the protagonists will make even the most eager players watch the cutscenes of the game. Many lovers of The Last of Us become really annoying! When they finish the game, they do not talk about anything else until they convince us to play too. And when we play, we become the same person. The first twenty minutes of this game leaves many Hollywood movies shamefaced! Unsure of what is happening, Joel runs with his daughter and his brother Tommy to try to escape an impending catastrophe until she dies in his arms.
You spent five minutes with her, but even as a player, you feel crushed by her destiny.
We've played many zombie apocalypse games so far, but The Last of Us has dared to approach the genre differently. Making violence more plausible and brutal, which brings a tone of realism to the narrative and characters.
You never feel like you're just playing a video game.
For a moment it popped in my mind, and I thought how games evolved since Mario Brothers. Since we just ran from left to right and now I'm entirely focused while fighting with all my might to survive.

Last, of Us, part 2 is coming up, so go ahead and play this one! I guarantee that you will be impressed!
It's with those thoughts in mind that I keep telling my friends that The Last Of Us is the best game ever. I hope that I have managed to convey all the emotion I felt and make you who have never played. Bought, or borrowed this incredible game and come back here to leave your opinion.

The Last of Us Part II Poster |
The story of "The Last of Us Part 2", one of the most anticipated games on PlayStation 4, will address the quest for justice. Neil Druckmann, the game's director and writer, at a brief screening of the G1 title at E3 2018 in Los Angeles.
"In the first game, we wanted to tell a story about a father's irrational and unconditional love for his daughter. This is its essence, where the relationship between [the protagonists] Joel and Ellie comes from. Every decision we made was to support that idea. "says Druckmann.
"Already in this second game is a complimentary theme that still involves love, relationships," he says.
"But it's more about the idea of justice. And how messy truth can be. And how far a person can go for justice. Every decision, every choice of characters, is based on that core idea. Think about it ".

If we consider the brutality employed in Ellie's new game trailer. The Last of Us teenager who became a young adult in the aftermath can bet revenge will be hers. Ellie, according to Druckmann, will be the only playable character in "The Last of Us Part 2".
Incidentally, the second episode of this intimate and cruel story about what was left of humanity after an epidemic, also expanded Ellie's resources to complete her mission.
Druckmann says the game's stages can be crossed even more, with maps the size of "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End".
Ellie also has a button to dodge the opposing blows, "solving all the obstacles that Joel [the controllable character of the first game] faced, but in her own way."
If we reflect well on the future of the video game industry, the works that attract the attention of the entire community and have avid fans around the world are evident. The game we're going to look into is clearly on that list for a wide range of reasons. In addition to being an exclusive PS4 - a console that is having massive success on the market - it's the sequel to one of the most acclaimed games in the world. Video game history made by one of the most prestigious studios.

The Last of Us: Part II is this and more. A game that has attracted and continues to attract the attention of gamers from around the world, eager for more details about it and that is still giving rise to rumors, discussions, theories, etc. Of course, this raises a fundamental question: Can Naughty Dog maintain the quality of Joel and Ellie's first adventure? Or even surpass it and create an extraordinary work of art? As an introduction to the Sony conference, a trailer for The Last of Us Part 2 was shown where we could see a little more of both the game's history and gameplay. The container in question is already following: The new trailer for Naughty Dog's ambitious match started with a quiet week. Where Ellie dances with another young woman and kisses her, in the middle of a party where tranquility reigns. According to Neil Druckman, Ellie is the only playable character in the sequel, meaning that unlike the original game, you won't be able to control Joel. This scene contrasts sharply with the rest of the video, where it was possible to see The Last of Us: Part 2 gameplay in an incredibly violent tone filled with brutal scenes. Apparently, the sequel runs 5 years after the original game, and you'll control a 19-year-old Ellie.
The Last of Us: Part 2 will not be an open-world game in which you can freely explore the horizon. However, nor will it be a completely linear game in which you have no opportunity to make any decision. All we had a chance to see was gameplay, but choreographed, in an "extended linearity" experiment - the studio explained that decisions will depend on the moments. There will be situations where you will have the power to decide and may even ignore enemies. While in other cases, you will also have to play the way Naughty Dog intended. Right in the first section, we decided to touch on a "scorching" topic. What is the release date for The Last of Us: Part II? At this time, the answer to this question remains a real mystery, and there is still no official indication from either Sony or Naughty Dog.

It seems clear that the wait will still be quite long considering that the release of Uncharted: Lost Legacy took place in August 2017. Which means that Naughty Dog was only able to focus exclusively on The Last of Us from there. Given the relevance of this IP, production of the game has undoubtedly begun before this date. Anyway, given the words of Neil Druckmann, the game's creative director, we can speculate that the release is not coming soon. We present 5 minutes of the game, but how did we make that slice into dozens of hours of visceral-looking gameplay with that kind of intensity? People don't see that the rest - at different stages - is a complete mess. " The impression we get is unmistakable: this game could be the swan song on PS4 just like the original The Last of Us was on PS3. 2018 seems very unlikely (even impossible), so late 2019 or the first half of 2020 will be a more valid and credible release date. Trailer I of The Last of Us: Part II One thing that has left many people disappointed that the released trailers are the lack of gameplay that showed both Joel and Ellie on the go. A year after the official announcement at Playstation Experience 2016, the game was shown only twice: the report itself and a second trailer at Paris Games Week in late October 2017.
Among the many issues raised by the trailer, we know something concrete: both caused a revolution in the video game community. Sparked an intense debate about its narrative and gave the impression that this game will have an even darker tone than the previous one. The second trailer also raised issues related to the use of excessive violence in video games, causing much controversy and forcing Sony to comment. Jim Ryan, a Playstation executive, said "The Last of Us is an adult game for adults. It's still too early, but the game will undoubtedly be for people over 18. And there is a market for those who like this one. Kind of games. "

The mind boils at the possible narrative of The Last of Us: Part II, but the gameplay is not far behind. It will depend on the environment in which Naughty Dog inserts Ellie and Joel. Depending on the game world, gameplay may follow a more survival or stealth variant, but of course, action-oriented gameplay is also a possibility. To get an idea of this particular aspect of The Last of Us: Part II, we have to look at the first game. This is a third-person shooter divided into sections of shootings, stealth, and survival - these should be the three fundamental pillars. It will undoubtedly be interesting to find out where the rest of the population is and, above that, what is the state of the infection that has hit this world. Are there more factions or even some kind of interim government? One of the significant changes regarding gameplay is the change of protagonist: Ellie will replace Joel as the main protagonist, and we should play with her for most of the game.

Druckmann confirmed that playing with Ellie will be different compared to Joel, but the details about this diversity remain a mystery. Despite being more mature (19 years old), she certainly won't have Joel's brute strength. However, he must already be feeling the weight of age in the history of the second game, already over 50 years old. There are also rumors circulating that the game may include a multiplayer component. All due to an image posted by Naughty Dog with job offers for system designers and multiplayer layouts. Although no game is accurately referenced, the fact that the company used a picture of Ellie as a background led fans to theorize. This is not exactly new in the saga, as the first game contained multiplayer but, anyway, nothing has yet been announced.
