Brother, I'm a grown man in my late 30s, I've played the game three times over the years and that scene with Joel and Sarah emotionally wrecks me every time. The voice acting, the animations, atmosphere, thinking they've gotten to safety only to be heartbroken, it's so expertly made. You are in for such a treat if you can play this and its sequel, I can't wait to watch you feel it all. Cheers!
@@cnizzle9575although yes it may not be up to par with the first one. i still think there is a really good story told and it’s worth a full play-through. Especially if you like the characters in the first one enough. you should give it another chance if you haven’t done so yet.
@@kloud. i played it and didn’t like it, a lot of forgettable and forced characters, i even bought the remaster just for the new gamemode and still havent touched the storymode in it
There's something quite magical and beautiful about the fact that we're going on this journey with you now and the final destination is your painting in the background.
And this is the crown, this man may not have a soul left by the end of this😭😂. Rdr2 is up there too though, I just think there are a few scenes in this game that are absolutely unmatched
The look in Joel's eyes and on his face when Ellie asks him if it can be that bad out there. He says everything to us, but not her, with his back turned., without saying a word.
Technically, they are not zombies lol.. But i get your meaning. I usually don’t like zombie games either, but this one quickly became one of my absolute favorite games.
this is hands down my FAVORITE playthrough of tlou so far. i love the perspective of this man and i love how much he actually sits and thinks about the details to understand everything
Hello, MojaveD. This is the first video of yours that has popped up on my recommended. I am enjoying it a lot so far. I have a dear friend that's an employee at Naughty Dog (the creators of The Last of Us), and I've sent her this video. She works on accessibility features for their games. A simplified controller scheme for elderly gamers may very well be an option they're interested in. Great video. I hope you enjoy the game!
Welcome too the Mojave community man we’ve just been on one hell of a roller coaster with red dead redemption two and then red dead redemption 1 and now where on another one. This guy is truly one of the greats. You won’t be disappointed.
It would actually be a great option for the very easy mode for example, having less controlling functions to use (e.g. automatic reload if that is not already a thing in the easier modes). It would be helpful for people just getting into gaming as well.
@@dakotah4866not really a dictatorship just martial law and its injustices. What that soldier did was a huge injustice that I don’t think many national guard would actually do
@@Soulthief4056 you'd be surprised on how crazy anybody in any military service of national guard, army, Navy. I mean I've watched reaction channels that had soldiers react to this game. And they said if there was ever something like this that went down with martial law get away from the military. We've been under martial law for over a hundred years and most people don't even know that
@@Soulthief4056 yeah sadly. here's something that I have been thinking about for quite some time after playing games when people talk about their military, what military are we talking about.

Same rules apply to today when you are born in this Union, you were born free and you have to give your oath to be bound by something or someone. I have given no oath. There are people give blind allegiances and they don't know what to it's kind of scary

@@eliteteamkiller319 When you kill an enemy and don't get any ammo, I just interpret that to mean that their ammo is not compatible with any of your guns.
Must've seen the Sarah scene at least a dozen times and it still makes me tear up. They did indeed do a great job at evoking such an emotional response so quickly into the game. The acting and storytelling is superb throughout The Last of Us and that's why it's been so highly acclaimed over the the years 👍
Never need to apologise for difficulty level, or learning or understanding the controls. Everyone’s just here to enjoy a new and unique perspective you offer. Videos like this are valuable for developers and game designers. Gaming is for everyone.
"How old is this game" There are three different versions of the same game. 2013: The Last of Us - Playstation 3 (Original Release) 2014: The Last of Us Remastered - Playstation 4 (The only difference here is the high definition textures) 2020: The Last of Us Part II - Playstation 4 & 5 (Sequel on a new game engine) 2022: The Last of Us Part I - Playstation 5 (Complete remake of the first game using an updated version of the new game engine they created to make Part II. This is the version you are playing in this video) We also have The Last of Us: Left Behind, which is a dlc campaign that takes place before the events of The Last of Us (The Last of Us, Remastered, and Part I), however, it should be played after you have completed the main campaign, because it spoils certain aspects of the main campaign.
the 2014 remaster's most important difference is that it runs at a stable 60fps. The PS3 version suffered from low, inconsistent framerate, like a lot of seventh generation games did
Need more people who genuinely play story games like this. Taking everything in the story in and reflecting on it. Thank you for this, all the people who worked their butts off to make this masterpiece get appreciated and it’s so fun to watch!
the opening of this game is probably one of my favorite openings in gaming history, sitting in the back of the car and watching as all the chaos ensues was crazy
This might sound lame but both my grandpas died before I was born so watching your let’s play and how funny you are kinda fills that part in my heart lol
The eyes in this game are what separate last of us from every other game. The eyes of these characters tell hours worth of stories. Amazing game brother ♥
Naughty Dog nails the fidelity with these character models. They have a knack for the body and facial animations, the character's eyes tell so much without the need for dialogue.
Channels like yours are seriously underrated! We need more RUclipsrs like you showing that gaming has no age limits. I really enjoyed watching this, keep the awesome content coming!
I'm not sure if anyone else has said it yet, but something that may help in combat situations where you can't see the enemies... if you hold R1 (the button above the right trigger) it activates a "listening mode" where it highlights enemies through walls and past obstacles. Great video by the way man, hope you enjoy the game 👍
@@Scottie4twenty you have 90+ comments on this channel and theyre all complaints about something or just being negative for no reason, are you sure youre not the one that should get out more?
I would rather watch you play this game than someone less than half your age. It’s a very refreshing experience because you come from an entirely different generation. I’ve seen other RUclips channels owned by more seasoned gentleman like yourself play games like this and they always show a different kind of appreciation for the experience, a kind of appreciation you don’t see from younger folks (like me).
Quick reminder. the game allows you to walk around and explore pretty much whenever you want. so you dont have the stay with the other characters all the time👍
one of the most amazing opening of any game ever. and i wanted to say its great to see someone elderly be openminded and actually enjoying video games.
Been gaming for 30+ years and will happily play on lower difficulties when Im just not feeling it. I’d rather enjoy my limited time in a game than get stuck or frustrated for hours. No shame at all, we’re here for the story.
Only tip needed, be patient and observant. Learning the nuances are part of what makes it great. Absolutely amazing game, another 10/10, your people have amazing taste. God bless and enjoy, Sir.
Don't worry! This game was very new for us too. We all struggled with finding loot and getting lost in the puzzles. Biggest tip I can give is to remember the developers use hints like light and yellow to show you where to go next. Sometimes when I got lost - I'd stop, look around, and try to think where I'd expect Joel to go if i was watching a movie. Lastly - don't get discouraged! There's a few areas that I was hopelessly lost in until I googled it. You're a much better player than I could be with my patience
This gentleman it's just amazing playing videogames, I'm blown away by his insights and perspective over things we often don't pay that much attention.
Omg, MojaveD! Fantastic! I'm so pleased you decided to play this game! Great graphics music and acting. I will certainly watch you play. I hope you enjoy! ❤ don't worry. I'm 71 years old too and I enjoy playing these ganes
I have played this game 9 times and watching you play I feel like I’ve just played it again for the first time. You are wonderful and the life and experience you bring to your play through is absolutely wonderful. Keep doing what you’re doing.
I've never had a Playstation, so I never played this. But I have watched play-throughs of it before, and I have to say, it is the best game I never played. Such a great story, great acting, everything.
Aww he’s so cute I’ve never seen the elderly even think of touching a game let alone TLOU. I’m so interested to watch his play through. Good luck friend !!❤
Wow this is GREAT! The Last Of Us is one of my favourite games ever. Glad to see you play it. This game is a masterpiece just like Red Dead Redemption 2
This is one of my all time favorite games. Joel is one of the best written characters. The cordyceps virus they used in the game is a real virus I'm certain insects in the jungles of Amazon's. The ants actually grow fungus from their brains and it takes over their functions completely.
Hello dear sir, that's very nice to see a senior respecting and enjoying the video game media. That game is very strong emotion-wise, and probably one of my favourite games of all time. I hope you will have a great time discovering it.
Mojave I wanna give you some tips. This is a survival game as you can tell, you should manage your ammo and resources well. You can sneak through multiple areas without fighting or without using ammo. There will be optional loot and areas you can find so look around the areas you're in, don't rush through. Items will be highlighted. Listen to the characters or you might miss something. Remember hold R1 to enter listen mode and see enemies through walls. You can grab enemies and use them as body shields. You can also restart an encounter or from a checkpoint if you don't like how you played. I recommend using a mix a melee and ranged attacks, you can shoot someone and then punch them to finish the job. There's also no auto aim from what I know. There will be some problem solving and strategizing so use that brain you got.
Items, doors, or anything else you interact with will have a circle prompt when you're near it and a triangle prompt when you're even closer. You don't need to click on a door a bunch if nothing pops up.
@@mojaved2167There is a BUNCH of accessibility options,so id take a look at those as well as the “tutorials” section on the menu.And there is auto-aim which will make shooting much easier.Joel will automatically lock on,and you can also adjust the strength of it as well if you still want some aim control.
It's happy to see elders playing new video games as a youngster. Like this person does. I think that he has experienced the world before the birth of video games. It seems that he has experienced video games from his earliest days till now. We all agree that video games are now as advanced as other forms of entertainment. It's very satisfying for me to see the reaction of someone who has experienced video games from scratch. Good gameplay sir!! Love and respect from Sri Lanka!
Welcome to the game that absolutely changed my life ❤ Everything about this game is stunning - visuals, music, storyline… So glad I get to experience your first play through!
I haven’t played this game but I have heard that it’s a really great story game like RDR2, So it’s going to be really fun to watch it for the first time on the best RUclips channel.
I absolutely love this. Doesnt matter your age, there are some amazing video games out there that tell stories that just stick with you and have an impact. Keep up the amazing work!
Found this channel a few weeks back, thanks to a RUclips shorts in portuguese talking good things about you playing Red Dead Redemption 2. I loved your channel, so I watched the whole RDR2 gameplay and just finished the RDR1 yesterday. For real, I’m loving watching you play as nearly a daily routine, and I’m so hyped to watch you play The Last of Us 1, its DLC and 2. Lots of love from Brazil 🇧🇷 ❤
I have a few bits of advice. I realize I’m late to the party and by now you’re much further along, but just in case.. 1. This is a stealth game. Very infrequently is fighting / shooting needed, but if you do shoot (or walk fast, making noise) it alerts all the enemies. Play stealthy. Crouch and move slowly when enemies are around, frequently using the “listening” mode to see where enemies are. And always upgrade that listening mode distance. 2. I’ve seen you frequently ask about how to run, or punch, or do other things. All modern games have a “controls” section in the settings, that shows you what all the buttons do. 3. I’ve seen you walk past ammo and crafting supplies etc many times because you’re not looking. In every room or location, search every corner and door and behind cars etc. In any video game where looting and finding supplies/ammo is a thing, the unwritten rule is, once you identify which way the game wants you to go to proceed, go everywhere else first. And remember, the on-screen prompts to pick up things doesn’t show up unless you’re close to the item, and looking directly at it, so you should constantly look around various directions (with the right stick) and walk up close to walls, cabinets, desks etc. This goes for when you’re outside too. 4. Never be without shivs. You can only hold 3, but a shiv is used whenever you open a locked door, or kill a clicker, so watch your bottom right screen icon to make sure you have a shiv and if you don’t, then craft some. 5. Never leave behind anything just because it says “full”, if you can help it. If you can’t pick up ammo, pull up each gun and “reload” to create space in the clip for more ammo.(Don’t worry, the game doesn’t let you discard bullets on the ground). Similarly if you can’t pick up crafting materials, try to craft med kits or shivs etc, to make room in your inventory to pick up the materials. Hope this helps. I’m very much enjoying watching your videos. I’m a 54 year old man. My Dad’s about your age and plays too. It’s a fun hobby, as long as you don’t obsess. Get out and get your needed doses of fresh air, exercise, and human contact too. Haha.
Sir…you’re playing one of the greatest games to ever be created. It’s over 10 years old. There’s a reason why the very beginning of the game affected you so strongly. The acting, directing, and music in this game is on another level 👍🏿
rcently found the channel. loving the playthrough so far! I'm going to finish this series. truly amazing game, it's a bittersweet thing to see someone else experience the highs and lows
this is the 2022 remake of the 2013 game, it's pretty much the same as the original in every aspect except that the graphics are better. However, it's worth noting the original had some of the best graphics I've seen in game and holds up very well even today, and probably did not need a remake but it's alright because the remake looks great too!
Caught yourself an easy subscriber. My Dad is your age and I've wanted to show him this game for years. I can't wait to see how you feel about the story. Haven't even gotten past you opening the game yet and I've subscribed.
I love that you pause to reflect. It's so important for processing. Sarah's death hits almost everyone the same. You play as her first, you see through her eyes and then you protect her when you play as her Father, Joel. The game was done with motion capture, which uses cameras and tracking dots to capture every motion and facial expression, so they truly act out everything you see and do. An important thing to note is the music, it was made by a genius in my opinion, who was brought onto the game early and he made the music based on the script and it sets the tone for everything emotionally
If you listen closely to the infected eating people, you can hear them crying or begging it to stop. They're still conscious and know they're eating people
Quick tip: don’t hurry to follow the companions. You missed a few events and some optional rooms to explore. That’s how you find extra ammo and items. Be careful, because in this game 2 bullets is considered a bounty.
This randomly appeared in my recommended and I’m glad it did! I’m really enjoying it so far! I’ve actually never played through the game or watched a full walkthrough, I’ve only seen the TV show adaptation (which is also fantastic) so I’m excited to go on this journey with you! There’s also a sequel if you want to continue the story after this.
Man it's so interesting to see your perspective , i was introduced to gaming to an early -ish age , and for someone who didn't grow up with them is interesting
Ah man i wish i could enjoy gaming again like gramps he is taking every juice of the entertainment like i use to get when i was a kid, man i miss those days of curiosity and exploration

I assure you that they will not leave anything out even at the easier difficulties. All plot points, enemies and materials are present in all difficulty levels.
All that changes is the ease at which enemies go down.
Whatever makes the experience betted for you is the options and difficulty level you should use. Set up the aiming/look speed and such to whatever you like.
3) There is not a massive amount of materials and such in tje early game. If you don't see a prompt within a few feel of an area there likelly isn't anything to grab there.
They want the world to have limited materials such as ammo so it's not unusual to walk into an encounter with five 9mm rounds, a brick and a bat, haha.
4) Finally, you can sometimes go around an enemy but at times the only way to go is through them or killing them. In all instances you can use stealth or world objects to help you. Be it throwing a brick to distract an enemy/lure them away from you to things like stealth kills.
You can clear out entire rooms of enemkes with zero bullets if you desire that route.
Your intuitions are keen, haha. You'll get the hang of it if you stick with it. I gua-run-tee!
Great comment.
Mojave seems to enjoy looting. He's gonna love this, isn't he?
This game is really a "thinker's game" IMO. It rewards understanding the details of how your various enemies behave and your different weapons work.
For example, experimenting with bricks and bottles will reveal more uses for them.

He asks about ammo but I don’t think he pays attention because there was 6 rounds on the stairs that popped up on his screen he just kept walking 😂.

I would describe the Last of Us as having the spacial structure of a simple maze.
Any time you see a fork in your path, you want to check the "fake path" or "blind alley" for loot before carrying on through the actual route.
This structure is actually a little simpler than it at first appears.

When you kill an enemy and don't get any ammo, I just interpret that to mean that their ammo is not compatible with any of your guns.

Must've seen the Sarah scene at least a dozen times and it still makes me tear up. They did indeed do a great job at evoking such an emotional response so quickly into the game. The acting and storytelling is superb throughout The Last of Us and that's why it's been so highly acclaimed over the the years 👍

"How old is this game" There are three different versions of the same game.
2013: The Last of Us - Playstation 3 (Original Release)
2014: The Last of Us Remastered - Playstation 4 (The only difference here is the high definition textures)
2020: The Last of Us Part II - Playstation 4 & 5 (Sequel on a new game engine)
2022: The Last of Us Part I - Playstation 5 (Complete remake of the first game using an updated version of the new game engine they created to make Part II. This is the version you are playing in this video)
We also have The Last of Us: Left Behind, which is a dlc campaign that takes place before the events of The Last of Us (The Last of Us, Remastered, and Part I), however, it should be played after you have completed the main campaign, because it spoils certain aspects of the main campaign.
jesus christ this game is a decade old now
the 2014 remaster's most important difference is that it runs at a stable 60fps. The PS3 version suffered from low, inconsistent framerate, like a lot of seventh generation games did
@@PeptoAbismol i remember it was delayed in 2012 which made me cry back then lol i was so hyped about this game as a kid
They also released it for PC shortly after the PS5 remake came out.

Need more people who genuinely play story games like this. Taking everything in the story in and reflecting on it. Thank you for this, all the people who worked their butts off to make this masterpiece get appreciated and it’s so fun to watch!
the opening of this game is probably one of my favorite openings in gaming history, sitting in the back of the car and watching as all the chaos ensues was crazy
Greetings from a 68 years old gamer who loves "The Last of Us 1 + 2", as well as "Red Dead Redemption 2"
Unc only plays goated games
I rely on y'all to point me in the right direction.
This might sound lame but both my grandpas died before I was born so watching your let’s play and how funny you are kinda fills that part in my heart lol
The eyes in this game are what separate last of us from every other game. The eyes of these characters tell hours worth of stories. Amazing game brother ♥
Just incredible
Naughty Dog nails the fidelity with these character models. They have a knack for the body and facial animations, the character's eyes tell so much without the need for dialogue.
@@jaysim3253ur absolutely correct, even Uncharted has some good emotional moments
@@ExpiredEvan Now I want him to play Uncharted. 😂
Red dead 2 did a really good job with the eyes too. The scene where Arthur says he’s afraid to die to the nun. So freaking sad.
Channels like yours are seriously underrated! We need more RUclipsrs like you showing that gaming has no age limits. I really enjoyed watching this, keep the awesome content coming!
I'm not sure if anyone else has said it yet, but something that may help in combat situations where you can't see the enemies... if you hold R1 (the button above the right trigger) it activates a "listening mode" where it highlights enemies through walls and past obstacles.
Great video by the way man, hope you enjoy the game 👍
Cool. Thanks man.
this feels like watching 70 yearold Joel - playing the last of us and im HERE for it... keep it upppp
6:12 hearing that warm "aw" and seeing that bright smile honestly hurt a little haha
I’m a grown man and i am not a guy that cry’s much. But this game hit different.
This game and part 2 are by far the best games I ever played.
You should also try the walking dead season 1 by telltale.
@@johnromanov Allright I’m gonna play that tomorrow
The first game is phenomenal, I was disappointed by the sequel however
today is the happiest day of my life watching you play this game has become my favorite channel

Sir, my 2 year old and me stay glued to the screen watching you. Just do you, we love seeing you enjoy the games❤
I have never clicked a video so fast I know u gonna love this game it is honestly life changing
I would rather watch you play this game than someone less than half your age. It’s a very refreshing experience because you come from an entirely different generation. I’ve seen other RUclips channels owned by more seasoned gentleman like yourself play games like this and they always show a different kind of appreciation for the experience, a kind of appreciation you don’t see from younger folks (like me).
Quick reminder. the game allows you to walk around and explore pretty much whenever you want. so you dont have the stay with the other characters all the time👍
My dad sort of gave up on life after many family traumatic events. He saw your video, started playing games and began to laugh again 😀😀
"I don't want a piece of lumber!" - What a great start!
one of the most amazing opening of any game ever. and i wanted to say its great to see someone elderly be openminded and actually enjoying video games.
Story based games such as Red Dead and Last Of Us are the BEST out there.
TLOU was the reason I got my PS4. The intro chokes me up every time, one of the best video game intros of all time.
It's the reason I got a ps3, my mate brought his round, let me play the first few parts and the next day I traded my 360 in for a ps3.
7:35 the original game released back in 2013, this remake released a couple years ago, not too long ago
Nothing like seeing someone experience the opening of this game.
YESSS HES PLAYING SUCH A GOOD STORY GAMR
Been gaming for 30+ years and will happily play on lower difficulties when Im just not feeling it. I’d rather enjoy my limited time in a game than get stuck or frustrated for hours. No shame at all, we’re here for the story.
Only tip needed, be patient and observant. Learning the nuances are part of what makes it great. Absolutely amazing game, another 10/10, your people have amazing taste. God bless and enjoy, Sir.
Don't worry! This game was very new for us too. We all struggled with finding loot and getting lost in the puzzles.
Biggest tip I can give is to remember the developers use hints like light and yellow to show you where to go next. Sometimes when I got lost - I'd stop, look around, and try to think where I'd expect Joel to go if i was watching a movie.
Lastly - don't get discouraged! There's a few areas that I was hopelessly lost in until I googled it. You're a much better player than I could be with my patience
This game is so much more than just a “Zombie Game” & you’ll come to realise that as you play more!
This gentleman it's just amazing playing videogames, I'm blown away by his insights and perspective over things we often don't pay that much attention.
MojaveD, stealthy, patient gameplay is imo best in this game. Its so much fun!
it’s better when
minor spoiler
you get the bow and get it upgraded
@@enthusiasticallydry couldn't agree more!🏹
27:00 i first got into this game around 2014/2015 and all these years later the sarah scene still makes me emotional
Omg, MojaveD! Fantastic! I'm so pleased you decided to play this game! Great graphics music and acting. I will certainly watch you play. I hope you enjoy! ❤ don't worry. I'm 71 years old too and I enjoy playing these ganes
I have played this game 9 times and watching you play I feel like I’ve just played it again for the first time. You are wonderful and the life and experience you bring to your play through is absolutely wonderful. Keep doing what you’re doing.
as long as there’s nothing trying to kill you, you can take in the scenery. all of your companions are pretty patient ESPECIALLY compared to RDR2
I've never had a Playstation, so I never played this. But I have watched play-throughs of it before, and I have to say, it is the best game I never played. Such a great story, great acting, everything.
watching this as I'm recovering from surgery!, I've been rewatching the rdr2 series as i've been stuck in bed so thank you for uploading man!
Good luck with the recovery process🙏🏽
I hope you recover swiftly!
Listen to the doctors, hope you have a full recovery. Thanks for watching!
Same here bruh, wish you a good recovery!
@@mojaved2167 thanks mojaved, you are one of my favorite channels so keep posting and keep doing what you do!
Aww he’s so cute I’ve never seen the elderly even think of touching a game let alone TLOU. I’m so interested to watch his play through. Good luck friend !!❤
Don’t be worrying abour difficulty setting. We’re not here for that. We are here for you and the story!
Wow this is GREAT! The Last Of Us is one of my favourite games ever. Glad to see you play it. This game is a masterpiece just like Red Dead Redemption 2
I just found this channel! I'm so excited to watch c:
The Last of Us is simply my favorite game!
Glad to see you playing
This is one of my all time favorite games. Joel is one of the best written characters. The cordyceps virus they used in the game is a real virus I'm certain insects in the jungles of Amazon's. The ants actually grow fungus from their brains and it takes over their functions completely.
Hello dear sir, that's very nice to see a senior respecting and enjoying the video game media. That game is very strong emotion-wise, and probably one of my favourite games of all time. I hope you will have a great time discovering it.
I’ve watched this video for three seconds and I love this man.
Extremely anxious and excited for more of this series, this is currently my favorite RUclips channel, a hug from a fan from Brazil
This is my favorite game ever and it means a lot to me personally. Getting to re-experience it from your perspective is really special. Thank you!
Mojave I wanna give you some tips. This is a survival game as you can tell, you should manage your ammo and resources well. You can sneak through multiple areas without fighting or without using ammo. There will be optional loot and areas you can find so look around the areas you're in, don't rush through. Items will be highlighted. Listen to the characters or you might miss something. Remember hold R1 to enter listen mode and see enemies through walls. You can grab enemies and use them as body shields. You can also restart an encounter or from a checkpoint if you don't like how you played. I recommend using a mix a melee and ranged attacks, you can shoot someone and then punch them to finish the job. There's also no auto aim from what I know. There will be some problem solving and strategizing so use that brain you got.
Items, doors, or anything else you interact with will have a circle prompt when you're near it and a triangle prompt when you're even closer. You don't need to click on a door a bunch if nothing pops up.
Thank you spacecowboy
Not sure if he has listen mode yet 🤔 I think it comes later if I remember right?
@@mackat7865he does,you use it when you first encounter spores.The room with two runners.
@@mojaved2167There is a BUNCH of accessibility options,so id take a look at those as well as the “tutorials” section on the menu.And there is auto-aim which will make shooting much easier.Joel will automatically lock on,and you can also adjust the strength of it as well if you still want some aim control.

It's happy to see elders playing new video games as a youngster. Like this person does. I think that he has experienced the world before the birth of video games. It seems that he has experienced video games from his earliest days till now. We all agree that video games are now as advanced as other forms of entertainment. It's very satisfying for me to see the reaction of someone who has experienced video games from scratch. Good gameplay sir!! Love and respect from Sri Lanka!
Welcome to the game that absolutely changed my life ❤ Everything about this game is stunning - visuals, music, storyline… So glad I get to experience your first play through!
I haven’t played this game but I have heard that it’s a really great story game like RDR2, So it’s going to be really fun to watch it for the first time on the best RUclips channel.
I absolutely love this. Doesnt matter your age, there are some amazing video games out there that tell stories that just stick with you and have an impact. Keep up the amazing work!
I’m so glad you popped up on my feed! This was so much fun to watch❤
Found this channel a few weeks back, thanks to a RUclips shorts in portuguese talking good things about you playing Red Dead Redemption 2. I loved your channel, so I watched the whole RDR2 gameplay and just finished the RDR1 yesterday. For real, I’m loving watching you play as nearly a daily routine, and I’m so hyped to watch you play The Last of Us 1, its DLC and 2.
Lots of love from Brazil 🇧🇷 ❤
I have a few bits of advice. I realize I’m late to the party and by now you’re much further along, but just in case..
1. This is a stealth game. Very infrequently is fighting / shooting needed, but if you do shoot (or walk fast, making noise) it alerts all the enemies. Play stealthy. Crouch and move slowly when enemies are around, frequently using the “listening” mode to see where enemies are. And always upgrade that listening mode distance.
2. I’ve seen you frequently ask about how to run, or punch, or do other things. All modern games have a “controls” section in the settings, that shows you what all the buttons do.
3. I’ve seen you walk past ammo and crafting supplies etc many times because you’re not looking. In every room or location, search every corner and door and behind cars etc. In any video game where looting and finding supplies/ammo is a thing, the unwritten rule is, once you identify which way the game wants you to go to proceed, go everywhere else first. And remember, the on-screen prompts to pick up things doesn’t show up unless you’re close to the item, and looking directly at it, so you should constantly look around various directions (with the right stick) and walk up close to walls, cabinets, desks etc. This goes for when you’re outside too.
4. Never be without shivs. You can only hold 3, but a shiv is used whenever you open a locked door, or kill a clicker, so watch your bottom right screen icon to make sure you have a shiv and if you don’t, then craft some.
5. Never leave behind anything just because it says “full”, if you can help it. If you can’t pick up ammo, pull up each gun and “reload” to create space in the clip for more ammo.(Don’t worry, the game doesn’t let you discard bullets on the ground). Similarly if you can’t pick up crafting materials, try to craft med kits or shivs etc, to make room in your inventory to pick up the materials.
Hope this helps.
I’m very much enjoying watching your videos. I’m a 54 year old man. My Dad’s about your age and plays too. It’s a fun hobby, as long as you don’t obsess. Get out and get your needed doses of fresh air, exercise, and human contact too. Haha.
Sir…you’re playing one of the greatest games to ever be created. It’s over 10 years old. There’s a reason why the very beginning of the game affected you so strongly. The acting, directing, and music in this game is on another level 👍🏿
Can’t wait for part 2. This is gunna be a great series
I am honestly so excited to watch these videos. They came up in my recommended and this guy seems great
Thank you, Brotherly!
rcently found the channel. loving the playthrough so far! I'm going to finish this series. truly amazing game, it's a bittersweet thing to see someone else experience the highs and lows
this is the 2022 remake of the 2013 game, it's pretty much the same as the original in every aspect except that the graphics are better. However, it's worth noting the original had some of the best graphics I've seen in game and holds up very well even today, and probably did not need a remake but it's alright because the remake looks great too!
Caught yourself an easy subscriber.
My Dad is your age and I've wanted to show him this game for years.
I can't wait to see how you feel about the story. Haven't even gotten past you opening the game yet and I've subscribed.
I love that you pause to reflect. It's so important for processing.
Sarah's death hits almost everyone the same. You play as her first, you see through her eyes and then you protect her when you play as her Father, Joel.
The game was done with motion capture, which uses cameras and tracking dots to capture every motion and facial expression, so they truly act out everything you see and do.
An important thing to note is the music, it was made by a genius in my opinion, who was brought onto the game early and he made the music based on the script and it sets the tone for everything emotionally
This is about to be good
Im honestly so happy that you're gonna experience this truly amazing story
OMG, it's happening, it's happening, MojaveD is playing Last Of Us! I can't belive it
What a fantastic discovery. I love your style of commentary. Much love
If you listen closely to the infected eating people, you can hear them crying or begging it to stop. They're still conscious and know they're eating people
Wait really? I didn't know this wtf. It's a little like Half Life then, huh...
@@rullvardieven in the first encounter if they’re alerted the infected woman will go something like “I DONT WANNA EAT YOU”
@@enthusiasticallydry Damn, that's really cool
Yeah, it's crazy how they are 100% conscious, but they can't control themselves @rullvard8245
I don’t think that’s accurate.
This and part 2 are going to be amazing playthroughs, love this channel!
From 2 heart shattering games to two more heart shattering games. MojveD you are a warrior
This is my favourite game franchise ever! So excited to see you play!! Hope you enjoy as much as I have over the years.
Quick tip: don’t hurry to follow the companions. You missed a few events and some optional rooms to explore. That’s how you find extra ammo and items. Be careful, because in this game 2 bullets is considered a bounty.
He’s on easy mode he’ll be fully on ammo the whole time either way.
This randomly appeared in my recommended and I’m glad it did! I’m really enjoying it so far! I’ve actually never played through the game or watched a full walkthrough, I’ve only seen the TV show adaptation (which is also fantastic) so I’m excited to go on this journey with you! There’s also a sequel if you want to continue the story after this.
man we got joel miller playing as joel miller, this is gonna be so good 😭😭 so excited to watch this series
Man it's so interesting to see your perspective , i was introduced to gaming to an early -ish age , and for someone who didn't grow up with them is interesting
As soon as he said he relates to being a single father I said "ohhhh nooo"
"Smoke em if you got em" - Band of Brothers...one of the best series ever made about WW II :)
Ah man i wish i could enjoy gaming again like gramps he is taking every juice of the entertainment like i use to get when i was a kid, man i miss those days of curiosity and exploration
