''The Last Of Us has swept up high praise from nearly every corner of the industry; critics love it, players adore it, and it’s proven to be a huge success. However, one part of the game that has gone somewhat unnoticed is how The Last Of Us dips its toes into something of a taboo topic, even in the modern day state of video games. That taboo topic is one of homosexuality. It’s so subtle and underplayed that the chances are most did not even notice it, and that commands respect to Naughty Dog and their writing team.''

They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.
The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.
All they had to do was make a basic online mode like their previous games. Instead they wanted more money and choose to go live service which makes games worse in my opinion.
What a waste of time and money, what a shame.
Not sure why they didn’t just make Factions 2. There was no need to make it a live service.
TLoU Factions was a great addition such a shame they couldn’t be bothered to remaster that for PS5 considering the crazy high price tag of the remaster of a remaster…
This is something to be celebrated. This studio is smart and they get it, even factions 2 wouldn't've have been worth the time. I am surprised they didn't just remaster the first one though, but actually how popular was Factions?
Who would in that universe...I think they have bigger things on their mind like you know...being killed in one of the many threats in the post infected world.
It's not a big deal if Bill wants to drop anchor in poo bay that's his business I thought they did a great job with all aspects of the story this game will have a well deserved place in gaming history.
TLOU was/is one of my favorite games period. I went ahead and bought the PS4 version also. So looking forward to a sequel!
That being said, I'm sick of all the overkill in analyzing "what's the real meaning of (fill in the blank)" a year later. It is a great game, well written, well executed, lots of things to discuss. Yes ND created a good balance of characters without politicizing. Kudos to them. ND simply kept it real...wish these journalists could without bandwagoning it.
