i will still never get why people were so angry at the fact she was a lesbian. ellie and dinas screen time was more about them teaming up against the world rather on the fact that they were in a lesbian relationship. romance is a big aspect of everyones life, no matter what your sexuality is, and it was cool to see the romantic aspects from ellie and abby, because it reminds us that they're still human, no matter who they choose to love
Ellie was lesbian from the beginning the fans don’t care about that fans were mad because of awful story telling. The story was good I’m paper but the way they told and they didn’t even justify few characters and Abby was a waste cause she didn’t get any sympathy which they tried to force on us 🤨
2021 when I said I don’t care about the internets opinion and finally played this game, it was the single most incredible gameplay experiences I’ve ever had. There’s not one thing that I didn’t like in this game
I find this comment highly offensive towards female viewers. Why you ask? Well first of all, you assumed I was a "dude" but In fact, I'm actually an Attack helicopter. Please be aware of the language you choose towards people who are not the gender you have stated them to be.
Yeah I guess people just disregarded the fact that she was already a lesbian and now they’re saying they just now made her gay to get more audience 🤷🏽♀️
If you're gonna push the pendulum too hard in one direction it's only inevitable that it will rock in the opposing side sooner or later. Let's just hope TLOU2 won't be the victim here.
Are guys really complaining about hot lesbians fighting hoardes of the undead? This is more a dream to me lol. But in all seriousness, Lesbians exist. Games can feature them if its not overdone for the sake of pandering. Everyone needs to loosen up.
Gamer George most men play games then women idiot their ment for cocking stop being corporate slave u know in ur heart an soul the lesbian thing is a turn but but its tlou 2 stop with that shit tlou 1 was good left behind was a moment no need to push it this far
Johnny Cage sexuality don’t work like that boss and why are you more concerned about the sexuality than the violence. I would be more concerned if my daughter started pulling out knives and shanking people.

If you needed any proof that the anti-SJW crowd have become a sad parody of the SJWs they love to criticise, this comment section is it.
well dude kissingin in a dark gritty zompolapis with a dirty sweaty blood stained, toxic enviroment, humid, dead poeple every were, putrid shit etc and sudenly a sweaty kiss with a pinochio nosed girl (she has a big ass nose lol) its a bit out of place, this would have been better to discover by ourselves playing it and not in the reveal (and why they all ways make a cool as strong fem character and make them lesbian? i dont mind it but it seemes really forced 2 me)
youmotha y That is literally the worst argument I've heard. All you said was; "It's unrealistic that anyone would kiss somewhere that's a bit dirty". Never mind that they were clearly in a settlement and none of those attributes you listed were present. List me 10 other strong female characters in video games that are lesbians. What's "forced" about it?

Just look at the dlc for tlou 1, it was confirmed a long time ago that she was a lesbian, and look how many people that made happy. The problem lies in the way it was presented- it starts off immediately with buildup to the kiss and then ends with it all in the same. As if to say “Hey! Look! This character is gay!” I’m completely fine with her as a character and/or her own sexuality, but I do think they could’ve taken a better step in portraying the idea without making it seem like it’s the only force driving the story. From a perspective of a writer, I’d imagine that if you were to mention it in there, but not carry it out through the entire trailer, that’d be great. It all depends on what you cater to the audience and how you present it. One idea can be showcased in a myriad of different ways, and you have to find the one that best suits your target audience and demographic.
you're right, you don't need to explain why. you're uncomfortable cuz you're homophobic. you people stigmatize affections of same-sex couples when there are full on sex scenes with straight couples in every media. its 2018, this is the direction the world is going. grow up.
To those who see LOU 2 a trash when Ellie kissed a girl or didn't even know the story plot first: DIDN'T YOU ALL SEE THE LEFT BEHIND DLC??! isnt it obvious that she kissed Riley? duhh people!! I don't fcking care if she is lesbian or not! as long as the game and the story plot matter!!! and Joel too!
what the fuck does it matter? straight people make out in literally everything, so why is it such a big deal when gay people do? i'm sure the game IS about killing, and survival and hardship and whatnot, and the fact that Ellie is gay is a very small part of it. It's not like it's a fucking gay romance simulator
sure 5 laughing smileys means you're a comedic genius. this has nothing to do with femininity, but sexual orientation. at least call me a SJW or a feminist or whathaveyou. Jeez, trolls these days..
Hannah Nielsen oh look another sjw troll don't you have to cry like bitch over your imaginary oppression wait a minute who let you out of kitchen at first place 🤔
I bet you $1,000 that if there was a full on heterosexual explicit scene they would have no problem with the whole thing and you would hear not even a whisper of “iTs An AcTiOn GaMe NoT a RoMaNcE gAmE”
So let me get this straight, y’all call yourself fan boys but as soon as two girls kiss you claim it’s forced and boycott the game? Grow up, lesbians exist. There was absolutely nothing forced about this, they’ve been teasing it since the first game and it really shouldn’t of come as a surprise to anyone.
Sam Thong after having played the game, I completely agree that it’s written unwell. They had the opportunity to make something ground breaking. However, there are people who don’t care about the story and they’re just heated because of the “ forced agenda “
Static Alphabet soup that’s just a really small minority. It’s literally 2020 most don’t give a f whether the character is lgbt or a girl. What we care is if those relationships are unorganic(same applies for those generic action movies with a girl and boy lead) or if a character is strong purely because they’re a female. If the character is compelling and the story is written well, anyone would love it regardless of a boy or girl. Lots of examples of this like Wonder Woman, ahsoka, and manny other female leads. I’m not hating on u just wanted to vent on those ignorant defenders of the game
Pam Jose they were probably told me to be quiet during cutscenes for audio reasons, or most people were just enjoying the moment anf didnt want to be that guy screaming you know? i would have been going wild durinh this though lmfa
I dont get why ellie being gay is "SJW Propoganda" that I keep seeing tossed around....until when can gay characters in games not be considered "pandering"? ffs Anyways, really looking forward to this ! I really hope Joel is still alive....
Techstorian OW Why should gay characters only be allowed to exist in stories explicitly about sexuality? There aren’t even many of those. Romance is one of the most common themes in any story, especially in ones about growing up and coming of age.
Techstorian OW You're just saying bullshit lol. Gay people exist in the real world and the video game world,get over it. Ellie was confirmed gay before sjw pleasing was a thing in video games. Its just something they decided to do. Ya know,her sexuality was hinted at in the main story when she saw naked men for the first time. Romance is used in stories to develop characters and relationships. That is important when it comes to story telling. They arent even making her sexuality a big deal, she just so happens to be gay and they arent forcing it down your throat just because romance is shown LOL.
well it was obvious that they selected that scene 2 say HEY WE ARE OPEN MINED DUDES..... SO BUY OUR GAME lol it felt out of place and forced it would have been better to discover this by ourselves playing it not in the reveal specially cuz there is a toxic mood with real SJW agendas and Super Toxic Anty everything that might or not might be SJWs influence, what do u thinlk?
Thats not the problem Techstorian OW. TLOU tells stories about people. We know Joel had a family but the zombie apokalypse destroyed it. After that it was just about survival. He never trusted anyone fully and didn't want to bond with anyone (Ellie in particular). But he became a father figure to Ellie it just happened. So he protects her, tells some stories about the past, is teaching her things and finally...trusts her. At first he was cold/ detached, just wanted to complete the mission and later on bonded with Ellie. Romance wasn't important for him at this point, just survive and protect Ellie. Now Ellie's story. She was born into the zombie apokalypse and doesn't know anything else as to live in constant fear(had to grow up fast). Ellie also lost her family and another person she deeply cared about. In the dlc she realized that there were deeper feelings for Riley after Riley decided not to go. In Ellie's head it was like "omg thank you. I really didn't want you to leave...again." But you know what happened then. Ellie also became cold/ detached but later on bonded with Joel. Few years later (this trailer) they seem to be in a safe place and can live a somewhat normal life (?). Ellie is still young (so romance can play an important role) and this scenario allows a bit normalcy for her which she experiences for the first time: a normal dance (party?) and in her case a bit fear because people are staring at them (literally no one would care if it was a guy [ingame and in the gamer community]). She is >just a girl (not a threat)< who happens to like girls. And that's a part of her story/ character development ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ So the problem is that people don't understand the human brain and feelings/ emotions. Every person is unique and not a political statement. Other than that, I'm excited to learn more about Ellie (and Joel) and want to know her plan for revenge (and why)! (I hope my point came across and I didn't ramble to much. Sorry for any spelling mistakes)
Mr. Reality ok :D Suuuure i just made two accounts to like my own damn comment. And thanks for the comments on my vid dude! They make my video stand out in youtube algorithm and give me more views and subscribers
Mr. Reality and you're going bat shit crazy on the internet over somebodys opinion. Wow. You damn 10 year olds shouldn't be allowed to have internet :)
Mr. Reality how am i using bots and trolling if i just say that i like that two girls kissed in a video game that i like :D Damn u must be the troll. Now i get it
Looks like a masterpiece in the making. Literally nothing will top this game for years to come. And I love the banjo playing in the background. Wish I could get my hands on the song.
LeGoat James tomorrow people from naughty dog is going to come live on e3 and they are going to talk about tlou2 they might show another gameplay or trailer there.
Joel The Pizza Wizard yep they said at the end of the e3 and developers r going to come and talk in depth even Hideo Kojima is going to come and also people from naughty dog they also showed the schedule at the end.
Notice when Ellie shoots one of the hunters at 14:07 the other one yells: “Ethan”!!! It’s amazing how Naughty Dog has layered another level of immersion by giving Hunters their unique names
sitting here in Pakistan its actually quite shocking to see people taking issue with ellie's sexuality....I mean the story, graphics, music, gameplay are all on point yet americans still whine, I mean i would have understood if it was out of place or not believably acted but with the music and all it was actually quite nice. My religious beliefs aside everyone has the right to live their lives accordingly and people who donot like it well simply dont buy the game?! easy enough right?
I so hope they don't kill her love interest.. again. But we saw Ellie wear Dina's bracelet later...before she went on the (revenge?) killing spree. I hope we are all wrong! I just want her to be happy!
actually im in the actual E3 .. im in there..and the crowd’s reaction was muted on the live broadcast in all social media..trust me..the crowd’s going crazy like “OH HELL YEAHH WOHOHOHOHOHOHOOOOOOOOOO” even the lesbian kissing part..the crowd’s like “OHH YEAHH HAHA” ..im telling y’all this..im in the actual E3 and crowd’s really goin crazy dawg..i swear to god im tellin y’all the truth
Gamers be like: "We're okay with zombies, murder, torture, decapitation and evisceration, but acknowledging the super-underrepresented LGBT community? Hell no, producers, you've gone too far!"
Ramazan D In what way are they forcing their ideas into your face? If you feel offended because a moment of lesbian intimacy is shown on-screen, then you should also believe that heterosexual intimacy shouldn't be shown, because that would be forcing heterosexual ideas into gay people's face. Where does this double standard come from?
Ramazan D Lol, with that logic then gay people must of had heterosexual ideals forced on them for years. Honey, it’s a game, it’s not even a real kiss, how and why does this bother you? This is not new information, Ellie kissed Riley in the first game, who, if you did not know, is a girl.
SammySam7x In the US, LGBT members are 4.1% of the population (source: Wikipedia). This reality is not being overrepresented: think of how many characters have been introduced in The Last of Us; of all of them, only three are non-heterosexual: Bill (the obnoxious guy whom Joel asked for a car), Ellie and possibly this girl Dina. I believe that's a fair incidence. When talking about minorities (LGBT people, Muslims, black people etc.), in order to make sure you're not being discriminatory, a good method is to try and apply your idea to the majority. For example, Ramazan said that representing non-heterosexual intimacy on-screen is offensive to heterosexuals because it forces non-heterosexual ideas into their face. Now, let's try to apply the same statement, but inverting heterosexuality and non-heterosexuality: representing heterosexual intimacy on-screen is offensive to non-heterosexuals because it forces heterosexual ideas into their face. This statement clearly doesn't make sense: nobody considers heterosexual intimacy offensive. So, I ask once again: where does this double standard come from?
Don’t care what anyone says, one of the best games of all time. When you’re my age, I’m someone who remembers Tecmo bowl and rbi baseball, you value games a little different than someone who’s first console was a PS3. I can count on one hand games that I’ve played more than once and this one I played back to back to back to back. Nuff said
@@owensmyth5405 Not just a game, it's art. And art is very contentious due to the subjectivity it demands. Part 2 evoked feelings in me that very few games managed to do.
Ron I can agree with that, and it is certainly unique, I just disagree with the direction they took the story. There are parts of this game that are incredible, but so many parts seem drawn out and it often feels like the developers are forcing you to like certain characters for the story to progress. It’s certainly a masterpiece, but it is by no means perfect.
@@owensmyth5405 I can agree with that. Even now, weeks after completing the game, I still have no idea how I feel about this game. I flip flop back and forth between loving it and hating it, so I think I'm somewhere in the middle. I understand why Joel had to die, and I don't really have a problem with that by principle. I understand the story and complex messages it tries to portray, but I just disagree on the direction they took the story on a fundamental level. Not that the writing is awful, though it does have some problems, just that I was looking forward to more time with Joel and Ellie, and it feels like nearly half of the game's potential time that it could have spent focusing on that relationship was spent on fleshing out Abby's section of the story. Abby's section is engaging, and I get why it's necessary, but I still can't shake that feeling of disappointment that we didn't get to see more of Joel and Ellie. And that's just my own personal opinion, certainly not an objective criticism. I hope you can understand where I'm coming from.
I hope the developers don't reference themselves on crowd reactions 'cause some of them like this one doesn't show the crowd reaction at all, this gameplay reveal was simply amazing but so well done in the dramatism that people didn't know how to react, I mean me too, I see a kiss followed by a brutal throat cut, I'd probably shut my mouth, it's like being in a theater, you don't want to scream like a fool in a scene like that, and let the others people enjoy the movie so all the dude in the comment saying "dead crowd" just stop it please, this not a Blizzard game (no offense by saying that, I'm just saying that most Blizzard's cinematics wants the crowd to scream)
Interactive movie ? you're being selfish right now, we clearly see in the gameplay trailer that the combat system has been improved, and players know the the combat system on the first one was a really fun experience I didn't bought Beyond Two Souls cause I know it is actually an interactive movie, however The Last Of Us is clearly not a movie, it is a video game with a good varied gameplay, good scenario with good characters, and I won't talk about graphism. re-doing a flawless fight sequence in the first one was a really fun and challenging thing to do. Exploration was as scary as the stealth sequences with the clippers, I mean... I cannot agree on the fact that it was an interactive movie, cause I didn't felt like it
Mr. Reality LMAO had to google wtf means "SJW" didn't know that term exists, and it proves that, because this term has been created by the same close minded people of yours, you can't allow yourself to call me a "non gamer" or whatever term of non sense you're talking me about
Sorry I'm not english, in my country the translation of "selfish" basically means that when you say "interactive movie" prove that you didn't play the game to say that (I'm sure you did, but you're close minded so you don't have another opinion than saying that)
Joel comes walking in: "GIRL"
LOL
Lol your referring to Kratos calling boy, Boi right?
「Jetski」 Yes haha
XD
Soy walks in : "Boy"
its like they were watching with their parents because they silent when the kissing scene comes
CenTz except that one guy
They were silent because they didn't know how to react to this unneccessary scene, that would be my guess.
"unnecessary scene" That's so subjective.
WOO!

Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t Ellie in the first game have a crush on a girl near her age? I mean shouldn’t we have already excepted this.

Murders and violence: "Awesome!"
Girls kissing is deplorable but they're ok with some dude being gutted.
what the fuck does it matter? straight people make out in literally everything, so why is it such a big deal when gay people do? i'm sure the game IS about killing, and survival and hardship and whatnot, and the fact that Ellie is gay is a very small part of it. It's not like it's a fucking gay romance simulator
sure 5 laughing smileys means you're a comedic genius. this has nothing to do with femininity, but sexual orientation. at least call me a SJW or a feminist or whathaveyou. Jeez, trolls these days..
Hannah Nielsen oh look another sjw troll don't you have to cry like bitch over your imaginary oppression wait a minute who let you out of kitchen at first place 🤔
I bet you $1,000 that if there was a full on heterosexual explicit scene they would have no problem with the whole thing and you would hear not even a whisper of “iTs An AcTiOn GaMe NoT a RoMaNcE gAmE”
Giovani Setiono did you even play the first game and it's DLC?
Little did these people know....
not enough cheering. MILDLY DISAPPOINTING
Mildly???? HIGHLY.
I honestly was a little upset they didn't cheer longer
Good God! Should they freak out like some fangirl of Billie Eilish?
So let me get this straight, y’all call yourself fan boys but as soon as two girls kiss you claim it’s forced and boycott the game?
Grow up, lesbians exist. There was absolutely nothing forced about this, they’ve been teasing it since the first game and it really shouldn’t of come as a surprise to anyone.
Idk about u but now we don’t even hate the game because of it, more so because of the bad writing
Sam Thong after having played the game, I completely agree that it’s written unwell. They had the opportunity to make something ground breaking.
However, there are people who don’t care about the story and they’re just heated because of the “ forced agenda “
I just feel like they didn’t put any effort in Dina and Ellie’s relationship. It didn’t feel real at all.
Static Alphabet soup that’s just a really small minority. It’s literally 2020 most don’t give a f whether the character is lgbt or a girl. What we care is if those relationships are unorganic(same applies for those generic action movies with a girl and boy lead) or if a character is strong purely because they’re a female. If the character is compelling and the story is written well, anyone would love it regardless of a boy or girl. Lots of examples of this like Wonder Woman, ahsoka, and manny other female leads. I’m not hating on u just wanted to vent on those ignorant defenders of the game
Ok Karen
I’ve watched this gameplay trailer 3 times today already.
Leron Brown Same I just want it to come out!
@@zattydau6484 little did you know you would still have to wait a year and a half
I like 2 hours of reactions on YT. :D Game is good,but story sucks :(
Gameplay looks incredibile
Johnny Cage
Lol, yea. This fucking trailer....is quite irritating. Only show one kissing scene and some long ass gameplay. WE WANT MORE!!!
Johnny Cage lmao dumbass.
Why do I get the feeling that the crown wasn't, I guess, impressed? I mean, if I was there, I'd be like, "Heck, yeah!! Part 2, here we go!! 👏👏👏!!!"
Pam Jose they were probably told me to be quiet during cutscenes for audio reasons, or most people were just enjoying the moment anf didnt want to be that guy screaming you know? i would have been going wild durinh this though lmfa
I dont get why ellie being gay is "SJW Propoganda" that I keep seeing tossed around....until when can gay characters in games not be considered "pandering"? ffs
Anyways, really looking forward to this ! I really hope Joel is still alive....
He is alive :) The asian guy mentions him!
Techstorian OW Why should gay characters only be allowed to exist in stories explicitly about sexuality? There aren’t even many of those. Romance is one of the most common themes in any story, especially in ones about growing up and coming of age.
Techstorian OW You're just saying bullshit lol. Gay people exist in the real world and the video game world,get over it. Ellie was confirmed gay before sjw pleasing was a thing in video games. Its just something they decided to do. Ya know,her sexuality was hinted at in the main story when she saw naked men for the first time. Romance is used in stories to develop characters and relationships. That is important when it comes to story telling. They arent even making her sexuality a big deal, she just so happens to be gay and they arent forcing it down your throat just because romance is shown LOL.
well it was obvious that they selected that scene 2 say HEY WE ARE OPEN MINED DUDES..... SO BUY OUR GAME lol it felt out of place and forced it would have been better to discover this by ourselves playing it not in the reveal specially cuz there is a toxic mood with real SJW agendas and Super Toxic Anty everything that might or not might be SJWs influence, what do u thinlk?
Thats not the problem Techstorian OW. TLOU tells stories about people. We know Joel had a family but the zombie apokalypse destroyed it. After that it was just about survival. He never trusted anyone fully and didn't want to bond with anyone (Ellie in particular). But he became a father figure to Ellie it just happened. So he protects her, tells some stories about the past, is teaching her things and finally...trusts her.
At first he was cold/ detached, just wanted to complete the mission and later on bonded with Ellie. Romance wasn't important for him at this point, just survive and protect Ellie.
Now Ellie's story. She was born into the zombie apokalypse and doesn't know anything else as to live in constant fear(had to grow up fast). Ellie also lost her family and another person she deeply cared about. In the dlc she realized that there were deeper feelings for Riley after Riley decided not to go. In Ellie's head it was like "omg thank you. I really didn't want you to leave...again." But you know what happened then. Ellie also became cold/ detached but later on bonded with Joel. Few years later (this trailer) they seem to be in a safe place and can live a somewhat normal life (?). Ellie is still young (so romance can play an important role) and this scenario allows a bit normalcy for her which she experiences for the first time: a normal dance (party?) and in her case a bit fear because people are staring at them (literally no one would care if it was a guy [ingame and in the gamer community]). She is >just a girl (not a threat)< who happens to like girls.
And that's a part of her story/ character development ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So the problem is that people don't understand the human brain and feelings/ emotions. Every person is unique and not a political statement.
Other than that, I'm excited to learn more about Ellie (and Joel) and want to know her plan for revenge (and why)!
(I hope my point came across and I didn't ramble to much. Sorry for any spelling mistakes)
I just want to know when this fcking game will come out
Kajczu Anywhere from tomorrow to never is a good time frame.
My guess is summer 2019
Damon June 2019 or early 2020
Omfg kill me pls :)
Kajczu when naughty dog is finished with it?
The bracelet of the girl damnnnnn!!!! im arab and its a Hands of fatma its something for protect us from the evil eyes also called the "khamsa"
Ellie’s smile at the end 😍😍😭😭
People yelling here how they hate that kiss and how it was unnecessary.. and here i am, completely in love to the fact that Ellie found someone
grandeja unfortunately that girl is dead and that is why ellie is on her quest of vengeance.
Mr. Reality ok :D Suuuure i just made two accounts to like my own damn comment. And thanks for the comments on my vid dude! They make my video stand out in youtube algorithm and give me more views and subscribers
Mr. Reality Well seems u have really bad taste in games then you"""gamer"""" :( I'm sorry for u
Mr. Reality and you're going bat shit crazy on the internet over somebodys opinion. Wow. You damn 10 year olds shouldn't be allowed to have internet :)
Mr. Reality how am i using bots and trolling if i just say that i like that two girls kissed in a video game that i like :D
Damn u must be the troll. Now i get it
Thank you for sharing how the crowd loved it... I'm a huge fan of the game and you are blessed to be in that event... more power to you!
I have watched this trailer so many time and I still get really excited like a 5 year old at Christmas when ellie and the girl kiss i am so excited
Can’t wait to play this game and see this wonderful story unfold! 🔥
Is no one going to talk about how the room they're in looks exactly like the dance hall the game is set in??
R R that was the point they did it on purpose
Ellie DeGeneres.
Found the homophobe lol^
I, aS a HeTErO mAN
not wanting to play a game because the main character is gay has to be the most fragile masculinity ever
Anya Hsu lol
Jyde K please tell me your comment was a joke😂
Bruh the smiling mechanics at the end were amazing it’s like trying to create rain in games
Alejandro Garcia indeed
I literally applauded when she crawled under the Car😵 like picture me hiding under the Car in the online mode 😍
Yess love all the new gameplay features, definitely seems more interactive with the environment as well.
Looks like a masterpiece in the making. Literally nothing will top this game for years to come. And I love the banjo playing in the background. Wish I could get my hands on the song.
This game looks absolutely stunning!!!!!
Anybody else try to play this section exactly like this? 😂
You’re not the only one! Lol 🤣
crowd didnt seem all that impressed ...
MrMpa31 maybe because of the gay seen. ....
No one wants a gay game .....expect for that guy that said woo
Robert Hernandez A lot of people do
Johnny Cage You can fuck off
Robert Hernandez Alot of people for some reason think the game is gonna suck because a girl kissed a girl makes no sense
Tlou_FanForLife _ it’s not that they think the game will suck, it’s just seeing two girls kiss sucked their enjoyment out. That’s reality
THIS GAME LOOKS FUCKING SICK! Like i'm only now playing The Last Of Us now because a friend lent it to me, but I swear, I am SO buying this game!
Nice! Now a spider-man reaction video, that game was so badass.
Ellie's half-up hairstyle is a nice nod towards Tess' hair in the first game - I love it
Damn Joel ????
LeGoat James he was referenced at the bar, which means he’s alive.
LeGoat James tomorrow people from naughty dog is going to come live on e3 and they are going to talk about tlou2 they might show another gameplay or trailer there.
Pop Sop really?
Pop Sop wait really?
Joel The Pizza Wizard yep they said at the end of the e3 and developers r going to come and talk in depth even Hideo Kojima is going to come and also people from naughty dog they also showed the schedule at the end.
Just came for the comments.
Love reading every bit of it LOL
Cant wait to play this masterpiece
Dang the e3 gameplay looked so realistic.
The Lesb Of Us 2
Can't wait for that to be the official porn parody. Its the next Ass-vengers
watch Ass Effect Andomeda.
lol exactly!
katy Nice.
wow how original was that joke! you should win an award for your originality! most original joke i’ve heard in a long time!
At a certain point it does sound like he’s tuning his instrument.
Where’s joel
ded
in the first trailer
Gilang Hardiono alive
He should be dead bc in tlou 2 trailer its not Joel ... its his ghost
The Asian guy mentions Joel as Ellie’s “old man” at the beginning
Waited 3 years for this!!
Was the crowd that quiet because they were too busy crying like me?
Notice when Ellie shoots one of the hunters at 14:07 the other one yells: “Ethan”!!! It’s amazing how Naughty Dog has layered another level of immersion by giving Hunters their unique names
17:22 Ellie is so cute
Poor Joel guys and amazing game, masterpiece
Fast forward 2 years and see the real reactions.
My heart!! Not sure if I can handle this lol looks amazing
sitting here in Pakistan its actually quite shocking to see people taking issue with ellie's sexuality....I mean the story, graphics, music, gameplay are all on point yet americans still whine, I mean i would have understood if it was out of place or not believably acted but with the music and all it was actually quite nice. My religious beliefs aside everyone has the right to live their lives accordingly and people who donot like it well simply dont buy the game?! easy enough right?
I already love your country ;)
There is no need to insult anyone, mate. Take it easy ;)
So cute omg
The fact that Sony took their time to replicate the conference from Last Of Us 2...damn!! 🔥
Ellie’s smile🥹🥹🥹 17:20
I so hope they don't kill her love interest.. again. But we saw Ellie wear Dina's bracelet later...before she went on the (revenge?) killing spree. I hope we are all wrong! I just want her to be happy!
That one "Whoo" in the crowd during the kiss scene got me giggling.
do you know how good this game is gonna be?
actually im in the actual E3 .. im in there..and the crowd’s reaction was muted on the live broadcast in all social media..trust me..the crowd’s going crazy like “OH HELL YEAHH WOHOHOHOHOHOHOOOOOOOOOO” even the lesbian kissing part..the crowd’s like “OHH YEAHH HAHA” ..im telling y’all this..im in the actual E3 and crowd’s really goin crazy dawg..i swear to god im tellin y’all the truth
bruh im laughing at this
Gamers be like: "We're okay with zombies, murder, torture, decapitation and evisceration, but acknowledging the super-underrepresented LGBT community? Hell no, producers, you've gone too far!"
Ramazan D I agree
Ramazan D In what way are they forcing their ideas into your face? If you feel offended because a moment of lesbian intimacy is shown on-screen, then you should also believe that heterosexual intimacy shouldn't be shown, because that would be forcing heterosexual ideas into gay people's face. Where does this double standard come from?
Ramazan D Lol, with that logic then gay people must of had heterosexual ideals forced on them for years. Honey, it’s a game, it’s not even a real kiss, how and why does this bother you? This is not new information, Ellie kissed Riley in the first game, who, if you did not know, is a girl.
Gays are like 1 percent of the population
SammySam7x In the US, LGBT members are 4.1% of the population (source: Wikipedia). This reality is not being overrepresented: think of how many characters have been introduced in The Last of Us; of all of them, only three are non-heterosexual: Bill (the obnoxious guy whom Joel asked for a car), Ellie and possibly this girl Dina. I believe that's a fair incidence.
When talking about minorities (LGBT people, Muslims, black people etc.), in order to make sure you're not being discriminatory, a good method is to try and apply your idea to the majority. For example, Ramazan said that representing non-heterosexual intimacy on-screen is offensive to heterosexuals because it forces non-heterosexual ideas into their face. Now, let's try to apply the same statement, but inverting heterosexuality and non-heterosexuality: representing heterosexual intimacy on-screen is offensive to non-heterosexuals because it forces heterosexual ideas into their face. This statement clearly doesn't make sense: nobody considers heterosexual intimacy offensive. So, I ask once again: where does this double standard come from?
The music brought it together 😭😭😭
Weak claps! Lol
factual lol , last year the crowd was better
Potato, you just trying to avoid the truth, crowd hate the gay content.
Ileamar Ferrer ikr
Ileamar Ferrer boyish giggles
This is in a theater you idiots. Not the E3 hall.
im pumped for this.
Where is this? It’s obviously not in the main theater
They were showing the conference in cinemas across the US (not sure if other countries too) again so probably in one of those that participated
It was at E3
Wow I didn't know that! Cool! :D
MatthewOmerza outside the e3 , they make a whole stage, there is a video how they make it on the PS channel.
I have watched this trailer an unhealthy ammount of times
Don’t care what anyone says, one of the best games of all time. When you’re my age, I’m someone who remembers Tecmo bowl and rbi baseball, you value games a little different than someone who’s first console was a PS3. I can count on one hand games that I’ve played more than once and this one I played back to back to back to back. Nuff said
"They should be terrified of you" - Dina
"That's my BABY GIRL!" - Joel
Most boring crowd ever
I wish Ellie looked this badass when i play
We all loved this....but little did we know what this game was going to be when it was released
@@owensmyth5405 Not just a game, it's art. And art is very contentious due to the subjectivity it demands. Part 2 evoked feelings in me that very few games managed to do.
Ron I can agree with that, and it is certainly unique, I just disagree with the direction they took the story. There are parts of this game that are incredible, but so many parts seem drawn out and it often feels like the developers are forcing you to like certain characters for the story to progress. It’s certainly a masterpiece, but it is by no means perfect.
@@owensmyth5405 I can agree with that. Even now, weeks after completing the game, I still have no idea how I feel about this game. I flip flop back and forth between loving it and hating it, so I think I'm somewhere in the middle. I understand why Joel had to die, and I don't really have a problem with that by principle. I understand the story and complex messages it tries to portray, but I just disagree on the direction they took the story on a fundamental level. Not that the writing is awful, though it does have some problems, just that I was looking forward to more time with Joel and Ellie, and it feels like nearly half of the game's potential time that it could have spent focusing on that relationship was spent on fleshing out Abby's section of the story. Abby's section is engaging, and I get why it's necessary, but I still can't shake that feeling of disappointment that we didn't get to see more of Joel and Ellie. And that's just my own personal opinion, certainly not an objective criticism. I hope you can understand where I'm coming from.
@@owensmyth5405 protecting bullshit are you?
God Ellie really is my favorite character from any other game I've played. ;-;
Back when we were clueless about the plot, and we were expecting another adventure with Joel and Ellie
*Cries*
I just recently sold my PS4. Tempted to buy one again just so I can play The Last of Us 2.
I hope the developers don't reference themselves on crowd reactions 'cause some of them like this one doesn't show the crowd reaction at all, this gameplay reveal was simply amazing but so well done in the dramatism that people didn't know how to react, I mean me too, I see a kiss followed by a brutal throat cut, I'd probably shut my mouth, it's like being in a theater, you don't want to scream like a fool in a scene like that, and let the others people enjoy the movie
so all the dude in the comment saying "dead crowd" just stop it please, this not a Blizzard game (no offense by saying that, I'm just saying that most Blizzard's cinematics wants the crowd to scream)
Interactive movie ? you're being selfish right now, we clearly see in the gameplay trailer that the combat system has been improved, and players know the the combat system on the first one was a really fun experience
I didn't bought Beyond Two Souls cause I know it is actually an interactive movie, however The Last Of Us is clearly not a movie, it is a video game with a good varied gameplay, good scenario with good characters, and I won't talk about graphism. re-doing a flawless fight sequence in the first one was a really fun and challenging thing to do. Exploration was as scary as the stealth sequences with the clippers, I mean... I cannot agree on the fact that it was an interactive movie, cause I didn't felt like it
Mr. Reality LMAO had to google wtf means "SJW" didn't know that term exists, and it proves that, because this term has been created by the same close minded people of yours, you can't allow yourself to call me a "non gamer" or whatever term of non sense you're talking me about
Sorry I'm not english, in my country the translation of "selfish" basically means that when you say "interactive movie" prove that you didn't play the game to say that (I'm sure you did, but you're close minded so you don't have another opinion than saying that)
I already can't wait for Part 3
