Popular Post Ghost Posted June 12, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) Five years after their dangerous journey across the post-pandemic United States, Ellie and Joel have settled down in Jackson, Wyoming. Living amongst a thriving community of survivors has allowed them peace and stability, despite the constant threat of the infected and other, more desperate survivors. When a violent event disrupts that peace, Ellie embarks on a relentless journey to carry out justice and find closure. As she hunts those responsible one by one, she is confronted with the devastating physical and emotional repercussions of her actions. Other trailers: Spoiler The team behind The Last of Us Part II led by Creative Director Neil Druckmann provided a lot of information about the game. The primary philosophy behind the gameplay is about “tension.” The team worked on making Ellie feel like she’s more connected with the environment, being able to squeeze under things, through things, and interacting with the environment in a way that feels more realistic and human. They also tried to make the AI enemies feel like real people and not just game enemies. For instance, they call each other by name. Ellie was playable in Left Behind, but the developers have expanded things a lot. The game is still centered on Ellie, but everything including combat, stealth, crafting, and traversal is taken to the next level. It’s gonna be a “really new experience” for people offering more options to players. Now players can dodge, and it’s a core part of the melee system. You can also leverage yourself on surfaces to attack. Combat, in general, offers a lot more options for the player. The goal is to create a lot of creative opportunities for gameplay. It creates a lot of exciting situation. Stealth is “analog” you’re never completely hidden, and how hidden you are, depends on how tall the grass is and similar elements depending on the environment. You can also jump, and that opens more vertical gameplay. Crafting involves choices, and it’s expanded where it makes sense. There are different arrow types and more that can be crafted. Each crafted item fills a specific niche. Traversal is evolved with new options, like the ability to squeeze in narrow gaps and go prone in order to flank enemies. Enemies use the same animation system as Ellie. You don’t see the transition between animations, they feel more natural, and more threatening. It’s a “really big game.” It’s still a linear story, but the player has a lot of options to move around in a “pretty vast space.” The developers have pushed the “wide linear” concept even more. Spaces feel like every place can involve combat, and there is always a threat. There is no safe space. The AI communicates a lot. When enemies spot a body in the forest awareness ripples out, and gradually more and more people know about it, and reinforcement will come. It works realistically, and AI will also search in a realistic way to find the player and engage Ellie. The infected are coming back, and their “gameplay space” is expanded. There are new classes which work with the narrative in a way that makes logical sense. They’re a real threat not just to Ellie but also to her enemies. Even the antagonists are humanized, they’re not just bad guys and they have more dimension and complexity.

Tekyumeeee Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Cool. The same tense, paced gameplay that I loved about the first game. Can't wait to see more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beyondthegrave07 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) That was pretty awesome! I totally thought the person was going to die a couple of times. Especially when they got caught the 2nd time under the car and at the very end. The explosive arrows looks like it could be a cool touch. I was wondering if they were going to do poison, fire, or explosive arrows in this one, and they at least got explosive. The one thing I loved about the first game is that you could argue that the people that weren't turning were the real monsters in the game. It looks like this game is shaping up to take that theme and turn it up to 11. I like what I am seeing.

Mog Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 All the enemies here seem to be wearing the same type of robe, maybe there is an organized group now? In the 1st game the human enemies all wore random clothing. Either way, i just hope they fix the replayability issues the original had, replaying the game meant you were slow walking 80%-90% of the time, and it got very boring. I didn't mind the slow pace when playing the game for the first time since i wanted to explore everything but that was my main problem with the first game. Also, still no Joel, i wonder what this means... some fan theories were suggesting that Joel had died and Ellie was going to avenge him. I don't believe fan theories but i think they're trying to develop something here by not showing Joel in any trailer so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinobi Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Some parts in that gameplay were so smooth. It was like cutscene-level smooth. This was already a day one purchase for me the moment the game was revealed. All this does is give me high hopes that the game will be just as good as the first; or dare I say, even better.

StarFang7 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Sony could have just ended the conference after showing this, lol. On the release date note, not giving a year is a little concerning ?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
