They really dont. You dont have to de-mistify and overexplain things. Im sure it was a a choice by them to characterize Joel the way they did. Its so weird to me that people need everything explained on a silver platter these days. The star wars effect
For me, this is just essentially a $10 DLC for the No Return and guitar free play modes, with the bonus of faster load times and dualsense feature support
@gummiphone The narrative's not really amazing, but it doesn't have to be. It has a lot of power, a lot of emotion to it, with still real-like characters that immerses you into the story it's trying to tell. So it's fine. That said, the very story it's trying to tell is a generic revenge plot that almost devalues the themes of the first game, but oh well. Somehow I still like the 2nd game more anyways.
You're right. This upgrade feels more like a Game Of The Year Edition than a remaster. Besides, the game is fairly recent so it looks more like a cash grab.
Defo cash grab might say it just 10 but imagine if we all said that bang that’s how u make money I’ll pass thank you second game weren’t that good any how 😂
The whole reason it's called that is related to the case of the first game. Both games were released at the end of the console's lifespans, so both versions get "Remasters" moving into the next gen. And by the way, a director's cut would actually imply changes to the game's story and presentation itself. Which clearly isn't the case, not even minimally.
Regarding the VRR which was mentioned briefly in this video - In (120hz) VRR modes you get 75-100 fps in Performance mode at 1440p and 40-60fps in Quality mode at native 2160p (4K). Other visuals improvements are a bit of increased foliage density and almost no LOD pop-in.
im up for a remaster but not at such a barely noticable improvement. not even if it was free. This feels like a cash in after they lost money after cancelation of the online project.
As a new PS5 slim owner im LOVING experiencing this titles for the first time on the PS5..... i dropped my series X after years of waiting for better titles and ive just finishing TLOU part 1 remaster, GOW, GOT.... i cant express the levels of awesomeness ive experienced gaming truly does feel next gen with my PS. This one is next on the list after i jump into GOW Ragnarök.
Us Die-hard Souls fans have been asking for a 4k 60fps Bloodborne upgrade since Dark Souls 3 was upgraded in 60fps on PS4 Pro. This was at least several years ago.
I personally never played The last of us part 1 or 2 when they released on PS4 so these PS5 remasters has been my introduction to the series so I’m thankful they did it. Some of the best games I’ve played.
First time playing. Part 1 was amazing. Beat it on ps3 loved the online, beat it on ps4 and stopped playing games for years. Now I’m playing part 2 and I have to stop after the Joel scene. I hate it because he was so well developed, from family man to cold hearted back to loving. I want to finish it but I don’t now 😢
Bloodborne would need a complete remake to make it 60fps. It was released early on in the PS4 cycle which means the entire code is based entirely on the PS4’s limitations. ie. 30fps.
@@bdgrey Infamous Second Son was released earlier and has a 60fps patch on PS5. My best guess is to make an upgraded version of Bloodborne (in whatever way) commercially available would require FromSoft's involvement in some way and they're just not going along with it for whatever reason. There is also the issue of fans thinking it's more popular than it actually is. Yes I know it sold well for a Soulslike but good lord, social media would have you believe for every Spiderman costume you see IRL, you'll see 2 of the Bloodborne hunter. 🙄
I have zero interest in replaying this game. It's a work of art. It's beautiful. The animations and performances are incredible. It's incredibly immersive. And it's a miserable slog that i didn't have any fun actually playing.
Me too. The reasons bought this because it was on sale for like 7$ retail. I picked this up in late 2022 when i got my PS5 and i wanted to experience the PS5 patch that was implemented on 2021. I hated the story and the other reason i bought was for the gameplay and graphics that still hold up on a base PS4.
@@Rapllez “immersive” implies a sense of suspension of disbelief. The world feels like a real, breathing, living place. When you sneak up behind someone and slit their throats, it’s visceral and brutal. It’s very immersive. I also did not enjoy being immersed in that world. Realism and immersion isn’t the same thing as fun. The most fun parts of the game to me are the claustrophobic horror sequences like the rat king fight. I love horror. That was exhilarating. But most of the game is just trudging through big empty spaces doing simple environmental puzzles and brutally and immersively murdering random named NPCs and their pet German shepherds. If anything, it’s too immersive. Especially in the depressing year 2020 when I played it, I just wasn’t having any fun dragging myself through 30 hours of that kind of gameplay only to be rewarded with a miserable, depressing story that turned likable complex characters into miserable psychopathic assholes. The story about the cycles of revenge and violence made sense for the narrative, it was immersive. It was also gross and depressing, and it often felt like torture porn. It was not fun to play.
@@maskedman5657no it shouldn’t have you’re not entitled to free new content that the devs had to put time and money into you and everyone else that thinks free content is a right drastically hurts the gaming community when you expect free shit they pump on shit that has no effort into it like fortnite
@@elileubner949 Yawn, the same "you're not entitled' spiel as always. God of War Ragnarok just released a major mode for free, what's stopping Naughty Dog? Ah of course, greed.
TLOU2 has the best engine/looking game on the PS4, and now has the best game on PS5. 10 Dollars is a steal if you already own this title and want more from it.
it has a comic mini series, 2 tabeltop games and a 3rd video game on the way... and that is all within 1 set of canon, then you have the tv series. it is a franchise
I really like when games give you a pure gameplay option, or something similar, on NG+. It can really add some replay value to not have to do the same busy work or story beat just to try and git gud at parts of a game you barely stumbled through the first time.
Leave it to TLOU fans to complain about an optional upgrade with new modes and content for only $10. The original game got a remaster at full price with less new content just a few months after the original ps3 release. This has been 3.5 years and people act like they’re being swindled.
Do you think that Naughty Dog will follow the same road map as Part 1? Example: Release a game at the tail end of the life of the initial console, then re-release the game some time later as a "Remaster" on the next gen console, then a few years later re-release the title in a native next/current gen game?
I agree that the story is flawed imo but theres no way TLOU as a franchise is dead by a long shot lol. Thats just dumb. It's a hit award winning tv series as of last year. And for all your bitching and moaning, you will play a 3rd one if they release it.
It shows a guy looking like he got kidnapped and nothing more. People always get kidnapped in this type of game. I think anyone complaining about this being a spoiler needs medical help.
For ten bucks I can’t really complain. I just want Uncharted remakes, I replayed the trilogy a few days ago and while they’re still pretty fun they are definitely showing their age. Especially Uncharted one, it definitely still feels like a game from 2006. If Naughty Dog can treat tlou like this then I’d like to see some modernization of the Uncharted games too.
@@victor_734 Yeah but the Nathan Drake collection was essentially a remaster for PS4, there’s currently nothing Uncharted for PS5. But the original Last of Us has been remastered for PS4 and PS5. And both were PS3 titles
I absolutely love the Uncharted games, some of my favourites ever. I’ve completed the first one a few times, to me it’s actually part of its charm that it feels very much of its time, a real nostalgia trip.
@@wesleyp3579no original titles sadly but Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy did get a proper PS5 upgrade similar to this one in the Legacy of Thieves collection.
Both modern God of War games have been freely updated with 'rogue-like' minigames. This is a cashgrab capitalizing on interest gained from the TV show. If i want to play unfinished levels of a game, I'll play The Beginners Guide
@@RemixerUltimate It sold well BEFORE people actually played it. I think though if they moved scenes around into a more chronological order it would have made the game less of a shock factor.
The only complaint I have about this is that No Return isn't coop. Other than that it's a $10 DLC for NR and a few other small changes. Im looking forward to it. This is far from the most egregious cash grab I have seen labeled as a Remaster or 'Definitive'.
This game seriously didn’t need remastered. 😭 it came out 4 years ago damn, it already looks absolutely stunning. It seems like Naughty dog only remakes their old games instead of making new ones anymore. Lmaoo they redid the last of us 1, twice.
Anyone bitching about the price should not buy it. I don’t care for this so I am not buying but the people who do like last of us this is a great $10 mode. $10 ain’t a lot anymore people. I payed more for my Burger King meal and Burger King ain’t all that
i definitely appreciate and respect the ambitious nature of the story telling in TLOU2, but like you I do agree it dragged on too long. The entire final act felt very tacked on. its not a perfect game, and its certainly not as good as the first game, but the first game is also... i mean... a masterpiece so... overall its still a great game in my opinion. having said that, dont know if wanna play it again. lol. the rat king still gives me nightmares.
At this point the amount of remasters they keep doing for part 1 and 2 stops me from playing either of the games. Wake me up when Naughty Dogs get tired and decide to remaster Jak and Daxter
Naughty Dog has only put out one original game in the last 6 years. That’s pretty lousy for a supposed top tier developer with multiple development teams and over 800 employees.
I got a PS5 for xmas.. and I have the PS4 edition, never played this game until last year when it came to PC.. I want to continue the story and for 10 bucks pretty worth it
I hadn’t realized it was just $10 if you already owned it for ps4. I’ll definitely pick this up. I figured it was another full price release like part 1 was. Thanks for the video!
New costumes are cool, that new mode looks fun (gameplay was always TLOU2's best feature) and faster loading is nice. $10 isn't that bad either. It's kinda like a "sure why not" kind of purchase. Kinda wish they didn't try to make that standalone Factions game and just focused on bringing the multiplayer back with new maps, modes and cosmetics. How cool would it be if there was a horde mode. Man can only dream...
I thought that when TLOU Part 1 remake came out and they were charging full game price (even for those who already bought it) that they did us dirty. However, with this one coming out as a $10 upgrade they have redeemed themselves.
We will see in 5 years from now. Things looking low to me. No new creative works no new anything. Naughty dog looks like they lost some major important people and are doing the old remastered/remake. Bunch of people gobble it up, good on them hopefully, honestly I hope they get what they want. Everyone else is looking to the future, not the past. Sadly Naughty dog looks lost and confused. I hope I'm terribly wrong here. Not trying to attack you btw.

With their engine/ physics ND should make a splinter cell style stealth game. Sneaking through, silenced heashot.. and the Sniper mission is still my standout in TLOU2
Wish they would make a Manhunt game based off this engine. Imagine how creepy that would be sneaky around low life's, thugs, and serial killers in Carcer City. Having to use real time shadows that change over time so you can't just stay in one spot and hide.
I bought the PS4 version of this game shortly after I beat the PS5 remake of the first one, but I haven't played it yet. I'll probably just end up getting the $10 upgrade before I start it.
I just played through the PS4 version a month ago and it was already a stunning looking game. Idk if I want to spend the $10 but the game is great. (Story stuff aside) The factions mode alone would've been worth a decent price.
@@tashacunningham7244 Factions, Uncharted Multiplayer, AC3 Multiplayer. The days when AAA games just threw in a multiplayer mode in their games, and they ended up being a really fun and original feeling experience. Well, Tomb Raider's was kinda ass though.
@@doasitellyouu yeah not so keen on some of the other multiplayers u mentioned but I do agree with you u made a very good point there I’d say and yeah I did try tomb raider and like u said it sucked lol
Why? They owe you nothing, $10 is fair considering they had to work on it and the new game mode. Do you work for free? I don't and neither does anybody else. You're just a spoilt entitled brat
This is a really interesting mode. It absolutely forces you to rethink your play style and experiment with every part of the combat. You will not survive on stealth alone. Traps, bombs, bricks, and bats become a requirement to survive, while things like silencers are just a waste of resources.
Not bad for a $10 upgrade (for those like myself that already own the game) considering all of the additions. And I imagine this will capture the attention of the huge influx of new PS5 owners whom I imagine this is mainly targeted towards. Not to mention capitalizing on the success of the TV show. An IQ market play.
Anyone who complains about the combat in part 2 clearly isn't playing it right. Not to be that guy, but it was clearly designed to be played on the harder difficulties, and you're not meant to treat it like a full stealth game. The original intent is meant to be a high octane experience that makes you feel like a desperate survivor barely living each fight by the skin of her teeth. And it fucking nails that
I can recall picking up the original Pt2 from the store: the people behind the counter were applauding (no joke) because I had the longest pre-order in their history. I pre-order the same day as the announcement (watched the Playstation Experience showcase thingy, got off my couch and went to the store) and picked it up on the day it launched. The weirdest thing about all this is that I still have it wrapped in its original cellophane and haven't played it.. Was waiting on the opportunity to play Pt1 and Pt2 back-to-back, but then kids happened. Also still really bummed about the cancelled standalone multiplayer, was hoping to experience that universe with a friend
I bought the last of us part 2 a year ago for 10 bucks but never beat it because I got busy and this is definitely a reason to replay all the way through
As a relatively new, casual gamer, and having only recently played TLOU1. I’m appealed by the remaster, plus, if the small price tag assists in producing creative Naughty Dog projects for the future, I’m all for it. Looking forward to playing TLOU2 for the first time.
good mindset, Naughty Dog is a studio that releases the same quality of games as rockstar (those responsible for GTA and Bully). this 10-dollar price tag increase is kind of a relieving thing as they didn't fully price it let alone 70-dollar price it. I recommend you dive into whatever you get recommended and pursue what you like! excited for you
@@Thatjcolenaughty dog has been going downhill for the past decade. Hence the remasters and remakes of the same franchise over and over again. They’re just gonna pull a Bethesda-Skyrim and won’t stop till they’ve milked every household in America. No need to make anything new when the community will keep buying the same shit
@@Chalaxandlerthey have 2 new games in the works right now and one is an entirely new ip. It’s confirmed to be sci-fi/fantasy. The other one is most likely lou3.
Hope the terrible pacing doesnt ruin the whole game for you. Certain things in the first hour of the game had me uninterested and blatantly feeling screwed by false advertising of Naughty Dog.
I feel like the new game modes should have been added to the ps4 version as well. Same goes for games like FF7 remake intergrade. I'm not a fan of this thing they do with adding stuff to the game but not for the system it was released on. Just my personal opinion because I would like to enjoy the extra content for the games that I already own without having to buy a whole new console for it.
the new mode is a lot of fun
Cool

Especially in the depressing year 2020 when I played it, I just wasn’t having any fun dragging myself through 30 hours of that kind of gameplay only to be rewarded with a miserable, depressing story that turned likable complex characters into miserable psychopathic assholes. The story about the cycles of revenge and violence made sense for the narrative, it was immersive. It was also gross and depressing, and it often felt like torture porn. It was not fun to play.
The new mode no return reminds me of resident evil’s mercenaries which honestly is wonderful
But it should have been free
@@maskedman5657making games is expensive.. no free handouts. I got the last of us part 2 and the remaster upgrade for $25
Resident evil 4 remake arcade mode is so much fun. It reminds me of what they did there.
@@maskedman5657no it shouldn’t have you’re not entitled to free new content that the devs had to put time and money into you and everyone else that thinks free content is a right drastically hurts the gaming community when you expect free shit they pump on shit that has no effort into it like fortnite
@@elileubner949 Yawn, the same "you're not entitled' spiel as always. God of War Ragnarok just released a major mode for free, what's stopping Naughty Dog? Ah of course, greed.
TLOU2 has the best engine/looking game on the PS4, and now has the best game on PS5. 10 Dollars is a steal if you already own this title and want more from it.
Last of Us needs more games to be considered a “franchise”. All it has is 2 originals and 3 remasters
it has a comic mini series, 2 tabeltop games and a 3rd video game on the way... and that is all within 1 set of canon, then you have the tv series.
it is a franchise
What's next? Last of us collection? Director's cut? Kart racing?
No, golf simulator. Starring Abby.
A racing Game The Fast of Us
I really like the idea of the no return mode. Because honestly - I had more fun with god of war valhalla than I had with ragnarok. Great addition
You people are weird as fuck. But go off I guess.
I really like when games give you a pure gameplay option, or something similar, on NG+. It can really add some replay value to not have to do the same busy work or story beat just to try and git gud at parts of a game you barely stumbled through the first time.
And you still have to pay 10 bucks for that faction mode😂😂😂😂😂
@@mavvynne444 Brokie laughing cause you can barely even afford that lmfao
Leave it to TLOU fans to complain about an optional upgrade with new modes and content for only $10.
The original game got a remaster at full price with less new content just a few months after the original ps3 release. This has been 3.5 years and people act like they’re being swindled.
Do you think that Naughty Dog will follow the same road map as Part 1?
Example: Release a game at the tail end of the life of the initial console, then re-release the game some time later as a "Remaster" on the next gen console, then a few years later re-release the title in a native next/current gen game?
maximum milking, minimum effort
@@lukelmaoooooThat’s pretty much been Naughty Dogs modus operandi since Neil Druckmann and Evan Wells took over. Low effort, reductive output.
Love watching your videos guys! Informative as always.
This is like releasing an 8K version of Star Wars: The Last Jedi,
No matter how good it looks it still killed the franchise
I agree that the story is flawed imo but theres no way TLOU as a franchise is dead by a long shot lol. Thats just dumb. It's a hit award winning tv series as of last year. And for all your bitching and moaning, you will play a 3rd one if they release it.
No, I won't @@Army1601
@@Army1601I doubt anyone that disliked tlou2 is at all interested in the third game
To be honest, the remastered is absolutly no need.
I like it, it's a next gen patch with some dlc content for $10, not a bad deal
For people who haven't played the game, there are spoilers at 6:38 - 7:05.
I mean not really. Doesn't show what happens and it's very early game.
The only spoiler is drawing attention to something as important that appears fairly inconsequential
@@BenThomson-s2w It still looks like a major plot point regardless if you've seen the scene or not
Pretty Sure Everyone Knows That Scene By Now It What Got This Game A Boost In Traction
It shows a guy looking like he got kidnapped and nothing more. People always get kidnapped in this type of game. I think anyone complaining about this being a spoiler needs medical help.
For ten bucks I can’t really complain. I just want Uncharted remakes, I replayed the trilogy a few days ago and while they’re still pretty fun they are definitely showing their age. Especially Uncharted one, it definitely still feels like a game from 2006. If Naughty Dog can treat tlou like this then I’d like to see some modernization of the Uncharted games too.
They already rereleased those in the Nathan Drake collection so I don’t really see that happening
@@victor_734 Yeah but the Nathan Drake collection was essentially a remaster for PS4, there’s currently nothing Uncharted for PS5. But the original Last of Us has been remastered for PS4 and PS5. And both were PS3 titles
@@wesleyp3579Uncharted is older. Wait for PS6 at least goddam
I absolutely love the Uncharted games, some of my favourites ever. I’ve completed the first one a few times, to me it’s actually part of its charm that it feels very much of its time, a real nostalgia trip.
@@wesleyp3579no original titles sadly but Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy did get a proper PS5 upgrade similar to this one in the Legacy of Thieves collection.
This no return mode makes the $10 I will have to pay be more than worth it. All the added visual and performance boosts are just icing on the cake.
Both modern God of War games have been freely updated with 'rogue-like' minigames.
This is a cashgrab capitalizing on interest gained from the TV show.
If i want to play unfinished levels of a game, I'll play The Beginners Guide
Oof the big swings pun hurts at 8:35
Will be fun to play on fidelity with framerate unlocked and vrr on
Gotta say, TLOU2 has some of the best controls, combat, and combat scenarios ever
Why is a remaster a thing? Did it come out like a couple of years ago?
Good question, also no one liked this game
@@yeyeman6569ah yeah, that’s why it sold so much, because no one liked it.
@@RemixerUltimate It sold well BEFORE people actually played it. I think though if they moved scenes around into a more chronological order it would have made the game less of a shock factor.
The only complaint I have about this is that No Return isn't coop. Other than that it's a $10 DLC for NR and a few other small changes.
Im looking forward to it. This is far from the most egregious cash grab I have seen labeled as a Remaster or 'Definitive'.
Before you buy make sure you're a true fan of the game
This game seriously didn’t need remastered. 😭 it came out 4 years ago damn, it already looks absolutely stunning. It seems like Naughty dog only remakes their old games instead of making new ones anymore. Lmaoo they redid the last of us 1, twice.
Shame they didn't think to remake their Jak and Daxter games for modern consoles, that would be remakes or remasters that I would be all for.
Why didn't he mention the added levels?
i really hope they release this version of *TLOU2* for *PC* soon, now that we already have *Part 1.*
Probably end of the year or next year
Anyone bitching about the price should not buy it. I don’t care for this so I am not buying but the people who do like last of us this is a great $10 mode. $10 ain’t a lot anymore people. I payed more for my Burger King meal and Burger King ain’t all that
This “Update” is WHAT I needed to get me into the Game and the fact that this game is the LAST “PS4” Exclusive, is Insane. Looks Phenomenal.
i definitely appreciate and respect the ambitious nature of the story telling in TLOU2, but like you I do agree it dragged on too long. The entire final act felt very tacked on. its not a perfect game, and its certainly not as good as the first game, but the first game is also... i mean... a masterpiece so... overall its still a great game in my opinion. having said that, dont know if wanna play it again. lol. the rat king still gives me nightmares.
3-5 hours less and it could be a master piece
> Ambitious
Lmaooo
Yep remove the last act really and end it with Ellie heading off to decide what to do next and it would be solid.
@@jonnyc429 for me, remoce a lot of filler i the traversal and it's OK
@@Flash36593im a massive critisiser of tlou 2 but how is it not ambitious?
At this point the amount of remasters they keep doing for part 1 and 2 stops me from playing either of the games. Wake me up when Naughty Dogs get tired and decide to remaster Jak and Daxter
Right?
Naughty Dog has only put out one original game in the last 6 years. That’s pretty lousy for a supposed top tier developer with multiple development teams and over 800 employees.
Need that PC version
So do I but hopefully it works at launch this time 😭
Despite having never finished either game in the series, I've managed to buy every version of these games, on every platform.... what is wrong with me
Just a 10 bucks upgrade, totally worth it. Most of you have the original already.
I got a PS5 for xmas.. and I have the PS4 edition, never played this game until last year when it came to PC.. I want to continue the story and for 10 bucks pretty worth it
I hope this will be optimize on Steam Deck when it release the PC port
I hadn’t realized it was just $10 if you already owned it for ps4. I’ll definitely pick this up. I figured it was another full price release like part 1 was. Thanks for the video!
Rockstar should learn from Naughtydog
“Only” lol. 10 dollars for nothing
@@MrIgorlubenski10 dollars for native 4K and lower load times. Is worth it. Looks incredible on my OLED
@@MrIgorlubenskithe new mode is worth it alone
Baa 🐑
New costumes are cool, that new mode looks fun (gameplay was always TLOU2's best feature) and faster loading is nice. $10 isn't that bad either. It's kinda like a "sure why not" kind of purchase. Kinda wish they didn't try to make that standalone Factions game and just focused on bringing the multiplayer back with new maps, modes and cosmetics. How cool would it be if there was a horde mode.
Man can only dream...
At this rate, we'll get TLOU 3 Remastered before the initial release.
I thought that when TLOU Part 1 remake came out and they were charging full game price (even for those who already bought it) that they did us dirty. However, with this one coming out as a $10 upgrade they have redeemed themselves.
will play just to see joel again and change my mood to you know what!!
Love it or hate it, I think we all agree the game is technical masterpiece.
We will see in 5 years from now. Things looking low to me. No new creative works no new anything. Naughty dog looks like they lost some major important people and are doing the old remastered/remake. Bunch of people gobble it up, good on them hopefully, honestly I hope they get what they want. Everyone else is looking to the future, not the past. Sadly Naughty dog looks lost and confused. I hope I'm terribly wrong here. Not trying to attack you btw.

With their engine/ physics ND should make a splinter cell style stealth game. Sneaking through, silenced heashot.. and the Sniper mission is still my standout in TLOU2
My favorite stealth game of all time. The original trilogy is a masterpiece. I’d be happy with getting ports on modern consoles
Wish they would make a Manhunt game based off this engine. Imagine how creepy that would be sneaky around low life's, thugs, and serial killers in Carcer City. Having to use real time shadows that change over time so you can't just stay in one spot and hide.
they try to milk it even for 10$
that just sad
$10 is nothing compared to what Call of duty did for the most recent cod dlc. They charged $70 for a DLC
I'm treating it as a DLC to one of my favorite games of all time, so $10 for that + some minor visual upgrades is fair imo.
That’s how it should be for remasters
I’m looking at you Nintendo
Love me some TLoU, can’t see myself getting the upgrade. It’s a story game for me and once I’ve experienced the story I’m done basically.
Experiencing the second time with new eyes. Is fun also plus stuff you'll forget
Well worth the $10 upgrade
To be fair £10 for an upgrade is fine. Glad they didn't release this as a compete new game.
They should have added a online game mode, that would have hold me until the next last of us
Giving a like to support the channel. The game... eh
I liked your comment because, it's true
NO FAKKING THANKS! TO BUYING THIS 😂
Am I the only person who spent the entire game finding fun ways to launch Abby off of Cliffs or get killed by Zombies?
Oh yeah! It was the only way I could get through abbys part of the game.
yeah it was fun
Did they fix the Story?
I bought the PS4 version of this game shortly after I beat the PS5 remake of the first one, but I haven't played it yet. I'll probably just end up getting the $10 upgrade before I start it.
10$ for an upgrade isn’t too bad
Should b free
It's a great deal

I just played through the PS4 version a month ago and it was already a stunning looking game. Idk if I want to spend the $10 but the game is great. (Story stuff aside) The factions mode alone would've been worth a decent price.
Yes guess u played the first one multiplayer man I had some good old times on that game defo one of the better multiplayers out there
Don't waste your money
@@tashacunningham7244 Factions, Uncharted Multiplayer, AC3 Multiplayer. The days when AAA games just threw in a multiplayer mode in their games, and they ended up being a really fun and original feeling experience. Well, Tomb Raider's was kinda ass though.
@@doasitellyouu yeah not so keen on some of the other multiplayers u mentioned but I do agree with you u made a very good point there I’d say and yeah I did try tomb raider and like u said it sucked lol
Not worth it. Paying 10 bucks just for that faction mode is not worth at all. Naughty Dog should have make it free.
the cancelled multiplayer still hurts. should've made this a free upgrade because of it.
Why? They owe you nothing, $10 is fair considering they had to work on it and the new game mode. Do you work for free? I don't and neither does anybody else. You're just a spoilt entitled brat
This is a really interesting mode. It absolutely forces you to rethink your play style and experiment with every part of the combat. You will not survive on stealth alone.
Traps, bombs, bricks, and bats become a requirement to survive, while things like silencers are just a waste of resources.
The most unnecessary (too soon) remaster in history of gaming.
TLOU1 was 'remastered' much quicker.
It's a directors cut more than anything. For $10, I'm not complaining
Not bad for a $10 upgrade (for those like myself that already own the game) considering all of the additions. And I imagine this will capture the attention of the huge influx of new PS5 owners whom I imagine this is mainly targeted towards. Not to mention capitalizing on the success of the TV show. An IQ market play.
“all of the additions” you’re the problem

I'm a big enthusiast for Part 2's combat so No Return is enough for me to get this
Anyone who complains about the combat in part 2 clearly isn't playing it right. Not to be that guy, but it was clearly designed to be played on the harder difficulties, and you're not meant to treat it like a full stealth game. The original intent is meant to be a high octane experience that makes you feel like a desperate survivor barely living each fight by the skin of her teeth. And it fucking nails that
It was $10 because I already had the original. I think that’s extremely justified because now I’ll be able to play it with my 4k 120 hz monitor :)
If they advertised this as a Definitive Edition or even just a $10 dlc (which it pretty much is) I feel like there’d be a lot less complaining.
Been holding off to play TLOU2 until a PS5 upgrade. Aware of the spoilers but looking forward to playing it.
You are the lucky one, enjoy mate👌
You’re in for a ride, brother. Probably impossible at this point, but it’s best to go in as blind as possible.
I envy you, would do it all over again. Enjoy!
playing this game on grounded was one of the best, better than any souls game
I can recall picking up the original Pt2 from the store: the people behind the counter were applauding (no joke) because I had the longest pre-order in their history. I pre-order the same day as the announcement (watched the Playstation Experience showcase thingy, got off my couch and went to the store) and picked it up on the day it launched. The weirdest thing about all this is that I still have it wrapped in its original cellophane and haven't played it.. Was waiting on the opportunity to play Pt1 and Pt2 back-to-back, but then kids happened.
Also still really bummed about the cancelled standalone multiplayer, was hoping to experience that universe with a friend
and then everyone clapped

Must be $10 in the US if you already have the game. I'm down under and i paid $15. But doesn't worry me, I'm more then obsessed with this game 😂
Just finished the game first and second part Damn it's amazing, I have no words
Buy it, you will never regret
Yeah, I don’t get all the hate this game gets. I can’t wait to get home and continue playing
I bought the last of us part 2 a year ago for 10 bucks but never beat it because I got busy and this is definitely a reason to replay all the way through
As a relatively new, casual gamer, and having only recently played TLOU1. I’m appealed by the remaster, plus, if the small price tag assists in producing creative Naughty Dog projects for the future, I’m all for it.
Looking forward to playing TLOU2 for the first time.
good mindset, Naughty Dog is a studio that releases the same quality of games as rockstar (those responsible for GTA and Bully). this 10-dollar price tag increase is kind of a relieving thing as they didn't fully price it let alone 70-dollar price it.
I recommend you dive into whatever you get recommended and pursue what you like! excited for you
@@Thatjcolenaughty dog has been going downhill for the past decade. Hence the remasters and remakes of the same franchise over and over again.

@@Chalaxandlerthey have 2 new games in the works right now and one is an entirely new ip. It’s confirmed to be sci-fi/fantasy. The other one is most likely lou3.
I loved it. I beat it on the hardest mode and it was one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. The enemy AI absolutely amazed me.
Hope the terrible pacing doesnt ruin the whole game for you. Certain things in the first hour of the game had me uninterested and blatantly feeling screwed by false advertising of Naughty Dog.
I feel like the new game modes should have been added to the ps4 version as well. Same goes for games like FF7 remake intergrade. I'm not a fan of this thing they do with adding stuff to the game but not for the system it was released on. Just my personal opinion because I would like to enjoy the extra content for the games that I already own without having to buy a whole new console for it.
