Man, I hate those people. To be clear I mean people who file false copyright claims, not Mexicans.

@@Shakenmike117 hahahahahaahhaahahaha as a Mexican i can say i hate them too.

Mexican here, i also hate mexicans hahahahaha

I hate everyone Mexican or not.

I don't buy the whole competency argument. Dramatically for the ending to work, the Fireflies had to be capable of a cure. That was obviously the intent of the developers who grounded it in character choices. IT's the way the movie of The Mist likewise depends on the soldiers coming at the end not being psychos who will mow down survivors. Joel's actions were absolutely selfish and self-centered.

fr i couldn’t stop laughing 😂

I thought the first take was good until he got to the screaming part. Then it got to overdramatic.

@@joetroutt7425 He's such an overactor, it's crazy. To think they got the best take when he was told to turn it all the way down.

Neil Druckman two weeks before launch: "So uh... We gotta redo a scene"

does anyone know why they actually go into that pose at the end of the scene?

Also the cure wouldn't do anything the world is already screwed

@@theashenstorm5509 the community of Jackson proves that false lmao

Yeah, I don’t get this interpretation of “he knew the fireflies were incompetent”. That sounds like an excuse. Joel’s an anti-hero, a hero with some un-heroic traits. He’s loving and protective of Ellie, but in a selfish way that leads to his ruthlessness in defending her. He wanted to save Ellie because he loves and cares about her and like you said, to save himself from that pain.

@@theashenstorm5509 Actually that’s the point why I felt horrible watching the last scene: Should I have played with that character who turned into the enemy of humanity because of selfishness? And Marlene was also right about Ellie’s motivation: she would have sacrificed her life for the cause as well. Joel robbed everybody (killed Marlene who cared for Ellie, lied to Ellie) becase he wanted to have a 2nd Sarah by all means. However as a father somehow I could see the justification behind that decision. So it’s very controversial and makes me think about it for a while. That were my feelings at the end. And that’s why this game (movie?) is such a masterpiece.

@@MrNrj6490 Totally agree, I’ve found this “because of the fireflies” track labored, too. It tries to create excuse for Joel’s cruel actions.

i got that too

Yoo wtf.

Lmaoo bro me too. I was panicking cuz idk where to go and since I was so immersed I just stared going around like a chicken and then the fucking scene happened and I damn near shitted my myself. I was beyond shocked cuz I thought the choice of killing the doctor was what caused this lmao man

THAT SCENE HURT LIKE A MF; Joel was crying out and everything and it made my STOMACH DROP- 🥲

@@ratte8633 What do you think about the comment now?

Also adding to the "cut throat killer" part. It was quite essential for me, because you get a better view of how f'd up the world already is. Which would understandably lead to Joel's decision at the end.

Gotta love that sarcasm lmao

Had me cracking up

"Multiple rounds" kind of undersells it a bit 1:54:00

I was thinking the same thing lmao

lmfao that was amazing

Exactly. I’m pretty sure he would’ve done the same thing if they were this flawless, Navy SEAL-tier militia who seldom lose a fight and are one step away from a cure. He’s ready to sacrifice the world for his foster-daughter and that’s what makes him a protective father figure to some and a selfish aggressor to others. His character is anything but one dimensional and that’s what’s great about him.

@@Hawaiian_Pizza_Enjoyer if he had woken up in the hospital , with ellie and the doctor in the room. the doctor than logically explains that they are going to run a battery of tests, but in the end it appears they may have to sacrifice ellie to produce the cure. and then ellie says that she agrees to the procedure. joel would have walked away.

@@flerbus then she dies for nothing as the fireflies are killed by raiders and the cure is destroyed

@@theashenstorm5509 exactly. I think they'd have much better chance for research and development of a vaccine in some sort of protected and organized haven such as the WLF base or maybe Jackson. there seems to be this recklessness and hastiness to everything the fireflies do. they seem unreliable, badly organized and incompetent. ellie's death would be a waste.

me too!

The sequel gave me withdrawals and I went crying back to the love and support of the first one

@@Hostilehippie13I like 2 but hate the story structure. I played that and came back played the first and the pacing in the first and structure is almost as perfect as you can in a game. After playing the first went a new game plused 2 and my issues I had became even more of an issue. I don’t mind what they tried to accomplish but hated how they laid it out and executed it.

Great point. Maybe Luke needs to spend a few days shadowing an ER nurse. Joel does sort of stumble a few times as he sets out and I agree, in that situation you just get it together. But I would like to add to this. The criticism of the shootout at the camp while in pursuit of Ellie was just ignorant. Ellie was distressed and in flight mode. She would not have had the sense to avoid bandit camps and furthermore she would have been moving so quick that she very likely made it through so fast that the bandits would not have had sufficient time to react. Now, you could stealth this section, but the way it is set up makes it very difficult. I wholeheartedly believe that this particular fight was not meant to be belabored over. You are in rushed pursuit of someone you are growing to care for. You are meant to blast through this fight in excess. Ellie has just stirred up this nest and you are meant to rush through it. You still don't know if she is alive or even still fleeing and you don't have time to delay! It is also very likely that some of the bandits split off in chase of Ellie and made a wrong turn. This would explain the later party that attacks the farm house. Since they were not already dwelling in the farm it may be that they were not initially aware of it and upon returning to a dead camp, they would have known that more had come through behind them. Either way, after a dozen play-throughs I never found it unnecessary at all. It always made sense. They probably made quite the ruckus racing through like that. And it was very likely the base camp for the earlier attack on the damn. The attack on the damn: I do remember there being some miscommunication regarding security check ins which is why they had to head up to the generator to begin with. I could be wrong so I don't have a very good response for this one. But they must have had a reason for being so vigilant at the front gate when they first arrived. I would only guess that they are dealing with regular assaults from bandits from time to time. And lastly, the quick-time-events in this game are some of the best placed ones I've ever experienced. They are consistent enough that the button use isn't a complete ambiguous mystery and not so frequent that they become a chore. And Joel's fall over the rail is supposed to feel like a failed event - BECAUSE IT IS!!! Joel nearly dying is not a win. He becomes mostly incapacitated and as he bleeds out his body is resisting hypovolemia. His body is likely shunting off his extremities in order to keep the blood in his core and he would be struggling with walking and staying focused. The pain and realization of near-death would also be tremendously overwhelming. It is very common for victims to faint from the fear alone in this sort of trauma. I found the sloppy and non-responsive controls only adding to my frantic mood and drawing me in more to the moment. I found myself holding my breath while lining up shots. It was genius. Even on following play-throughs I realized that the timing was designed so meticulously that it was not possible to ruin the events with preemptive aiming. It was a trick pulled off very well! And shooting zombies while hanging upside down... Who bitches about that???? What other game has ever pulled that off as well as naughty dog did? Have some fucking perspective! Otherwise, great review ;)

To make a point you used the operative word here “impalement” without any sutures or procedure to close the wound..

Some Sociopath Also..in the DLC Left Behind,which takes place after Joel gets impaled..Ellie administers first aid and tends to the wound after getting medical supplies..did the commentator not play the DLC for further story before doing the 'Ultimate Critique'?

Also he said that having a quicktime before Joel got impaled was "wrong" cause he thought it was a death animation. Like bruh, just cause you got bamboozled doesnt mean its a bad thing in the game. I liked that it was quick time

@@lynkalot5334 this guy just nitpicking for someone who has played d game so many times.

Not to be that guy but on the topic of the CPR: Ellie had drowned and her heart had stopped, if she was actually alive she would have coughed up the rest of the water as Joel forced it from her lungs when compressing them. CPR is used to forcefully pump blood around the body whilst putting fresh air into the lungs through mouth to mouth. CPR doesn’t restart a heart, you have to wait for someone to use a defibrillator. That’s why you can’t stop once you start because their heart will just go back to not working. So for Ellie to survive the fireflies must have restarted her heart and so Joel was indeed lucky that they show up in time as Joel would not have been able to bring her back without a defibrillator. But I do completely agree that the self righteousness of the fireflies was infuriating and kind of unfounded as they they are completely irresponsible. They couldn’t even prevent monkeys they had just infected from biting them!

I just realized that was way longer than intended haha sorry

@@GoblinKing-im2uz defibrillator

Houidi mohamed amin. Thanks

@Wackaz - Arthur Wacker All I really have to say Is, I get why ppl say it’s a bad thing to do, but who’s to say they weren’t going to fail with the cure? They complain that Joel didn’t give Ellie a choice, but neither did the Fireflies.

Yeah exactly, just like them I don’t buy into the trolley problem. There is ALWAYS a choice where we sacrifice no one. How about we take her antibodies, or try to get a spire from her blood and grow it.

I'm confused, what about the death of his daughter was a "good for the many" situation?

@@RoshDroz Lmao ask FEDRA.

Imagine one of the supply items being toilet paper, and everytime you found them you'd jump in glee cuz you know how rare they were. Imagine Joel explaining to Ellie "Yeah back then these stores used to be stocked with toilet paper"

I just recently play this game for the first time. Talk about just in time for the Corona virus.

Justahuman nm

@Joe Troutt I hope you enjoyed this game a lot. This game is amazing and still holds up. The same company also created my favorite game, Uncharted 4:A Thief’s End.

--Lol, as I'm typing this out Luke is starting to show the scene. Well, this lump on redundant dribbling is staying--. Sorry. Have you seen the behind the scenes of the making of TLOU? Watching Troy Baker acting the scene out (they filmed all the voice actors in those 'mocap' suits to make it easier to match it in the animation process (over and over 15+ times)) is emotionally harrowing. He speaks about the process he uses and that really hits home to the pure emotion involved in creating something (dare I say) so real. The child actor really brought it for that scene.

I personally believe its the emotional death in all of gaming. Its just so brutally and emotionally realistic.

zerocool I legitimately thought that Joel had died at that part.

I had a feeling it wasn't a death sequence because they didn't cue the death sequence music

I didn't think it was a death scene but assumed Joel was going to die by the end of the game somehow.

@@Inuheishi Same.... This was me when I first played

I didn't think it was a failed scene either

The first time I played it I couldn't get throught it and it nearly gave me a panic attack. It is so terrifying not bein able to defend ourselves, I still have a hard time when I get to that part, it is so well done.

It didn’t even hit me what he was insinuating until I watched a much more perceptive KZfaqr play the game. When that particular gamer made it past Winter and was reflecting on David and Ellie, THAT was when it hit me. And that’s what David on the very top of my list of the most terrifying and disgusting video game villains~ *HECK David all my homies hate David-*

It’s funny because it’s a redundant statement lol

Agreed. This guy is such an idiot. He doesn’t even have an hour long section about the giraffe. I’ve never seen such a damn fucking idiot that doesn’t dissect every aspect of the giraffe. The giraffe is the main protagonist of The Last Of Us and the depth of his character is Insane. So much character development and evolution.

TheBeaverInHD Goddamn I was about to rage on you, but that’s just too damn funny 😆

@@thegwynbleidd4202 agreed 😂😂

Also the time tess kills robert, joel (troy) didn’t move a muscle, love the acting

6 is not enough :) Atleast 20 xD

HendHeL there’s a KZfaqr named tajae who played it 21 times legit not exaggerating

@@TheTiredhermit Yup I know I myself played it around 25+ times I think Tajea even more witt 30+

Same, finally got the plat a few months ago. I'll probably play it once more just before part 2 comes out.

HendHeL I don’t think you’ll be able to play part2 that much!😂it’s gonna be long with more exploration

Ikr i was really upset that only some human enemies drop their ammo even if they have a weapon. And infected drop ammo when they don’t have a gun like wtf

I noticed that too, like why doesn't Joel pick up the assault weapons the soldiers use just after Tess' departure? From a gameplay perspective, I think it's because Naughty Dog wants your ammo to be restricted for the sake of tension and creating a sense of "surviving" encounters, rather than a traditional kill-em-all action game. However, it does come at a cost to the sense of realism for those that notice it.

@@epkegaming3139 the infected used to be human and what did humans have? GUNS

Lisa Hayes not every human had a gun and is the ammo inside of them? And they’re too stupid to use guns

@@epkegaming3139well I would imagine most did considering it's pretty easy to find wepons for joel so I don't see why it wouldn't be easy for anyone else

Absolutely man, I think they did it perfectly could you imagine if the last 3-4 hours of the game were spent with Joel handicapped lol in reality I think that wound would’ve had him out of fighting for at least a few weeks probably longer.

looks like medicine wasnt enough to heal playing golf.

@@bloatersnake9787 lol too soon too soon 😂😂😂😂😂😩😩😢😢.

I know I’m suuuuper late, but wanted to say that I don’t think she was aware or even okay with dying. Right before they get to the hospital she talks about learning to swim and play the guitar.

Invalidationcoded At the same time, Robert is someone they have associated with previously and seems to be pretty important in regards to society within the QZ, and in that respect it would be kind of crazy for the two of them to blast into his territory and kill him and a bunch of his men. It seems like the kind of thing that may have some sort of long term consequences unless Joel and Tess were already planning on abandoning Boston.

I think it's written in one of the game's notes that you find

Tess didn't get jumped for the gun shipment Robert put a hit out on her because he knew she and Joel were onto him because he ripped them off over the gun shipment. near the beginning of the game you can hear 2 enmies talking about how 2 of their guys died trying to take Tess out. Tess was doing a separate deal selling pills for ration cards when she got jumped

7?? Now your 15? when it came out i was 17 now im 24 lol time flies

Love*, writing like an Internet cat meme stopped being fun like 7 years ago.

That’s what I naturally assumed is what would happen because he gave major vibes.

Definitely an attempted rape scene, especially because of the way she breaks down when she says “he tried to-“ and Joel immediately understands and that pushes him over the edge and he calls her babygirl for the first time, like he used to call his daughter. People have tried to kill them both a thousand times, it wouldn’t have been that impactful to them both, it had to be the implied rape.

Haha I agree

Pretty sure he didn't say you and the community wouldn't enjoy it. But it did not matter to him. His point was that he appreciated that it was not the character's only trait. I wouldn't want to see a character representation of a group I am a part of be only that trait. This guy was a survivor who happened to be gay, not the other way around

TheZombifiedFairy Y’all with the million of characters since the beginning of time who being cishet is their only trait: 😍🥰😘 Y’all when a single LGBT character exists: JUST SO LONG IT’S NOT THEIR ONLY TRAIT 🤢🤮😷 The transparency isn’t working anymore is all I’m saying especially when he then proceeds to go on and on about him being gay like it is his only trait. No one is making it that way expect him when he couldn’t leave it alone and drop it. He very well could of ended it after comparing them to a old couple. He wants to cry about how it doesn’t matter but then cries on about it like it really does matter. I’m suspecting that’s not what really has him bothered. It’s really a character just being LGBT in general and he disguises it under the “oh I’m not a LGBTphobe but-“ act that countless people like me has heard over and over. Also I don’t know how to explain to y’all that y’all should care about other people. Our disagreement is not merely political, but a fundamental divide on what it means to live in a society.
