I bought it when it came out last year (TLOU:R, not the original obviously) and it seemed good but ehh screamy corridors full of jumpscare rape-machines was not my idea of fun. So it sat on the shelf for about 9 months and then the other week (3 or so ago) I picked up where I'd left off and just laughed my way through shoulderbitingsimulator2014 (The difference wearing headphones makes eh?) and got through the worst of the jumpscare rape-machines to the point where you are killing meatbags primarily which is a much more enjoyable experience and by that time you have enough weapons to comfortably take out any Ainsley Harriotts that come after you.I haven't finished the story yet but I know the plot vaguely well enough to tell that I'm close to the end. The story is done pretty well, above average for video game plotlines and if you contrast it with destiny it's shakespeare incarnate but yeah, the story might be a bit of a generic zombie apocalypse sort of deal but it's done well enough to have you wanting to play the next part rather than just 'Is this over yet?' like some games tend to do.The CQB kills are deliciously brutal, ramming faces into the edges of walls and all sorts of creative shit. Gunplay is alright, usually comes down to OHK with the 9mm pistol for all meatbag enemies though so it's not really challenging.I'd say 'predictable' kind of covers the story so far, or the major 'plot-twists' which mostly involve a 'oh this is going to happen' -> It happens.All in all I'd say it's a fun game/worth buying but it's not quite the HYPEHYPEHYPEGOTYGOTYGOTY chimpout that went on around it's release.tl;dr you should enjoy it

Fantastic game.The story isn't anything special, but the characters (and the great acting) are what make the game.The gameplay isn't anything new or innovative, but it's solid and works very well. Can be very tense on the higher difficulties.
Amazing game. The gameplay is very solid, putting you in a lot of pressuring situations. The artwork and characters are fantastic, and most of my enjoyment out of the game is from the breaks from the action, where you can explore/scavenge and find stuff (that's completely out of the way) that prod at what the characters are feeling: you'll find a movie poster that reminds Joel of his daughter, you'll see a boarded up military academy that reminds Ellie of her life and friends in Boston, etc...The environments are gorgeous and memorable, and the game was filled with moments where I was mashing my controller so much harder than I needed to because I really felt for the moment.
TLOU is a good example of how a solid story can carry uninspired and repetitive gameplay into "GOAT/GOTY"

Cause books and movies are the only things that are allowed to have a plot and personality. We need more games like Destiny. Solid gameplay and nothing else. They are called games after all....not video games. Clearly the title suggests they must all be the same. I mean variety is obviously bad for the industry. Everyone knows that. Everything should appeal to my tastes otherwise its not a game and you're not a gamer. ...Think I've made the point. casual scum should be executed via firing squadThat accent is really annoying tho.thats the point, he's poking fun at yahtzeeI know. Still old vid. Yahtzee doesn't even say that stuff nowadays...if he ever did. Just dumb that people actually believe a lot of that.the hyperbole takes away from the argument a bit but i think he's fundamentally right. these days no one cares about challenging themselves or being better or actual nuanced gameplay. our priorities are backwards.heyo blanket statementthe drooling masses of idiots who buy CoD year after year back me up on this one
Quote from: Azumarill on May 19, 2015, 03:00:58 PMreally tho. we need to have a serious conversation about this shit. you guys know as well as i do that the AAA market is saturated with absolutely awful games because of these mindless zombie noob hordes.There are bad plot driven games and bad gameplay driven games. Having one or the other doesn't guarantee a good game, and games can be good just focusing on one. I wouldn't say TLOU is an example of this 'AAA noob game'. I wonder how many people who complain about its gameplay have played it on grounded? Fights get intensely stressful when you are low on ammo and supplies. That's where you get memes like this from.As for other games. I like telltale games that are close to unlosable in some areas. Is that a 'noob' game? If it is I don't really care because I'm not desperately trying to be hardcore. I just play what I enjoy. Which also includes games like Bloodborne that are more gameplay focused. Nothing wrong with mixing it up.End of day all you can do is vote with your wallet if you want to change the industry. Don't buy shit games. But there's also a difference between a shit game and a game you don't personally enjoy.
