I think that final scene really showcases just how good the writing and voice-acting are in this game. Even without the facial animations, you'd be able to feel the conflicting emotions that are tearing Joel apart.
Amazing game so far I'm that's category the actors did such a great job the emotions in the voices are amazing. Joel has so many layers it's awesome to get to see some of them.
Nice! I'm gonna have to get it off soon or tone it down it's a bit much. After next EP I will mess with it since I already have tomorrows EP ready to go.
I just started your TLOU Part 1 playthrough series yesterday and I've binge watched to this current video lol great videos mate I'm looking forward to seeing you complete this masterpiece 😎 peace and respect from South Australia.
The only setting I would recommend in the accessibility options is the ability for Joel to auto pick up loot when he is near it (if it’s available I know it was in the second game). That’s not a cheat just a more convenient way to loot 😄 it’s also really funny to watch cos he looks like he has octopus arms 😂
Sick episode. Looping a bloater... nahhhh haha. It's a good thing you had FIRE 🔥! Lol at the hunters begging for their lives. They're gonna try to kill you on sight, right? Being separated from Ellie. We know Joel was worried sick. I'm sure Ellie wasn't having a good time either, but good shit not getting captured or killed. Give the girl a damn gun. For real... Oh, 2186 is when ME3 takes place. Shepard is all grown up and saving the galaxy 🫡
Fire it up!! Lmao throwing that fire bottle was so much damn fun I love the Bloater fights so far they are just so big and dumb and we get to run them around and blast them lolol I find it hilarious and fun and those Stalkers didn't stand a chance Joel is such a beast now. I'm glad we connected with Ellie I couldn't end the EP knowing that she was still out there and not with Joel. And damn I def messed those dates up on Sheps birthday lol
Just started watching this video, but to just comment on your intro. My dude, play the game how you want and what works for you. You don't owe anyone an explanation on what settings you've turned on or off. Anyone in the comments who thinks you do, needs to grow up.
oh no worries I'm not worried about ruffling peoples feathers its just in my nature to let you all know what I change and my plans I see it as a recap of what I did off camera ect. I will always play games how I want to that's what keeps me immersed.
Great episode . DLC Left behind and Last of us part 2. Hope you can play on ps5 cause the pc version os part 2 won’t be out til March. Don’t wait. You will love part 2 and how the gameplay and graphics are amazing.
I'm excited to play all that but sadly I wont be able to do it from a PS5 as I don't have the stuff to actually record it from the console. But the wait will def be worth it I'm excited to get to it when we do I'm in no hurry though i wanna savor it all.
1:16:13 Lmao, you got so lucky you had to reload, I could already hear the comments complaining about you missing a shiv door 😂. You actually had just missed another one a few minutes before (1:01:24 the gray door on the right corner you can see it). But with the ping, honestly it doesnt matter too much. You are gonna have more than enough resources now. If you wouldve missed that second tool, that wouldve been devastating for leveling up your weapons. You continue to entertain in combat, enjoying it a lot!
ahhhh FFS we missed a Shiv door damn that kind of sucks ass but its ok I agree we literally are stacked out on stuff that we are just unable to pick things up. Man the combat is so much damn fun this game is the total package between the combat the story and characters just so good. Glad you are enjoying it. Cant wait to put out more videos and see what happens next each EP I'm always on the edge of my seat.
I’m gonna be honest, I was finding myself skipping through all the times you were scanning the perimeter of a room that I knew had nothing, so having this loot option available has definitely made you play it a way that seems like you’re more in your element, and it’s more enjoyable for me. As a fan of the game, it’s nice to know that you’re going to find all the important stuff. I cannot wait for you to finish this game, left behind, and eventually part 2!
I totally understand and honestly it's made it easier for me to focus on following the companions more closely and just getting to the nitty gritty of the story and EP without having to uselessly walk around every single room even if there is nothing in it. I can see and understand if some don't like it but as a content creator it does make it way more easy to keep up with the flow of things in each ep and not have some dead space of running from X to Z just looking for loot that might not even be there. Glad you are enjoying it my friend I appreciate the support on the LP!
You got them skills darling you remind me of myself I'm the very same way when I play games😊I play on PS5 and I also use the enhanced listening mode It's just so useful in finding stuff, plus I have this fear of missing cool important things LOL. Yes those constant hints can get annoying you can go into the settings and turn them off that's what I did. Also you can always just bump the difficulty up all the way to the highest settings Grounded in all the categories in the custom menu. That's if you wanna try the game on the highest possible settings. Thanks for playthrough I'm enjoying both it and you🤗
I actually tried to do grounded it wouldn't let me sadly. I think you actually have to start the game on grounded it seems. But I agree 💯 those pings are super helpful. I don't mind missing the loot that we collect but I don't wanna miss notes and stuff that's the main reason why I'm probably just gonna leave it on and keep pushing forward. The game is super fun with or without but I'm glad I can read a bit more stuff now.
Idk if you've figured this out yet but I think the reason of the already upgraded things such as the healing & crafting speed is a kind of reward for getting the deluxe package of the game or something like that lol. I think it's also possible to turn it off before starting a new game
@@BowskiiYeah! No problem my man. Also, you're doing an amazing job at collecting resources even on hard mode. I know lots of people that aren't as stacked on tools and med kits as you, and they're on normal mode lol. Keep it up!
Not missing any loot will give you full stock, especially when you melee a lot. I get your reasoning for having the accessibility feature on but it's trivialising the difficulty for you I think.
Personally I think the game is easy as heck regardless of loot. Maybe it's just easier on PC but I haven't even been close to death even with or without pinging the loot. And we have been melee fighting nonstop. I kicked everything up to survival and it's still really easy sadly. Gonna be honest I think PC controls help so much in any kind of shooters and do make things easier. Because of the super quick reaction time.
1:10:25, they actually executed that girl that took them on 5 hour standoff. Same girl/woman from the note. Edit: I remember them saying they shot her in the head cause she was too much trouble and she would kill them in their sleep.
I'm hoping to get that on at some point in the near future not sure when though as we def need to beat Baldur's Gate 3 and RDR2 before we jump into another huge open world game.
He wanted to play Cyberpunk before, but I think Bowskii has epilepsy, so he decided not to. Cyberpunk has many flashing images, even if you turn them down in settings, some of them are still there. Maybe there is a mod that removes them completely. I want him to play it too, but I think it's understandable if he doesn't want to risk it.
@Cerebromanic no no I don't have epilepsy at all I'm just bothered by heavy blinking of lights so it gives me migraines and with it being a First person shooter it makes it even harder. When I see the epilepsy warning at the start of games it does give me pause. The whole machine looking blinking red stuff that game has going on might actually be an issue for me I've seen what it looks like recently and I'm iffy to be honest.
@@Cerebromanic yeah def that arena was really tough for me. I wish I could have done that arena shame that I couldn't 😢. And no worries I appreciate your concern thank you
I'm kinda upset how good you are with the Bloaters. First in the school and now in the basement. I've died some horrible horrible deaths on the hand of Bloaters. I almost gave up in the gym of the school 😱 but i guess that's the difference between a pro gamer like you and an amateur like me 😄😄 great playthrough 😃👍
Hahah thank you but I'm not pro I'm just lucky at times that Bloater came so close to grabbing me. The way I see it I had a lot of practice with bosses that make us run around in circles to kill them lol The Arishok in Dragon Age 2 😂. Running around and blasting a shot or two off at a bloater seems to be the way to do it. And fire bottles
@@nihileyes I don't think this enhanced listen mode works for enemies it seems to only work for the loot to show up. I tested it on and off it shows the friendly targets on both on and off but this enhanced mode only shows loot we can ping. It looks like now that we are on survival mode we can't use it like we were in the beginning of the LP.
@@Bowskiioh okay, I know the regular listen mode for enemies has a toggle you can turn off in the controls (I’m on a ps5 so maybe it’s different) regardless still enjoying your playthrough, the Downtown Pittsburgh levels are my favorite!
My personal recommendation would be to pass on 2nd level shiv master. It's a big investment and you don't REALLY save much, since it's for emergencies only. Saving one shiv use is not really worth 100 points IMO. The other skills are more useful. Level one shiv mater keeps you alive, but level 2 is just convenience, and 100 points is a LOT for just convenience. I'd definitely go for crafting speed, health, weapon sway etc first. Those will get a lot more use. (Crafting speed can help a LOT if you need to quickly make a new bomb during a hard combat or create a quick health pack or stuff like that)
So far I'm really loving the path we are heading i feel like health is the best bet and anything after is a wonderful quality of life upgrade I probably won't go any more on Shiv it seems like over kill
The accessibility settings are for people that needs extra help, not PC players. It was introduced in TLOU part 2, 3 years before the PC release of part 1. . If you like it then go ahead, everything that will make the experience better for you :) It also has other settings like auto aim, invisible while crouching etc. So there are definitely some things that borders the cheating territory. But my view is that if it wasn't a gameplay feature in the game itself, it isn't supposed to be used by normal players. However people should be allowed to create the best experiences for themselves and i completely support you using this setting.
@@joppekim yeah I seen the other ones as well. I'm gonna stay away from putting any of those on the game on survival is a perfect amount of fun and tough as nails. The ping feature is just a every PC game feature so I'm cool with using that the other ones are way over the top. I'm surprised they even have them in there to make the game easier then it already can be on like normal and such. But that's the thing it's a feature in the game it's not modded in naughty dog put it in the game to turn on and off. Like I said it's no different than any PC game out there you can use tab to highlight all NPCs and loot ect. It's a copy of the Witcher 2 and Dragon Age Inquisition spitting image really
@@Bowskiiuse it. It is completely okay if you are used to it. You're right, it should be something you could see while using listen mode or something, but i guess they tried to keep the game somewhat realistic and you can't really "listen" or "scan" for items 😅
@@joppekim lmao 🤣 imagine if we could life would be so simple. But I want telekinesis over a scan 😂. But all things considered I'm not 100 percent sure I'm gonna keep using it. I dunno yet I'm gonna just wing it and see how I feel ATM. Kind of testing it out.
@joppekim lol 🤣🤣 phone and keys. No idea how I managed it but literally a week back my phone was on the fridge 😆 must have got a drink and put it in there in place of the drink.. I dunno so strange. Must have been in there hours before my GF found it 😂
Have you ever watched the Netflix show called “Black Summer”? It does amazing at showing just how people would most likely act in a zombie apocalypse. Anyone could be looking to screw you over at any time
I think that final scene really showcases just how good the writing and voice-acting are in this game. Even without the facial animations, you'd be able to feel the conflicting emotions that are tearing Joel apart.
Amazing game so far I'm that's category the actors did such a great job the emotions in the voices are amazing. Joel has so many layers it's awesome to get to see some of them.
1:57:15 you can absolutely turn them off. It's on the HUD settings!!
Nice! I'm gonna have to get it off soon or tone it down it's a bit much. After next EP I will mess with it since I already have tomorrows EP ready to go.
My eyes light up when I see you upload Last of Us :D
Always great to put out more episodes! Hope you enjoyed it and had a great holiday as well.
@@Bowskii Hell yeah it's always fun!! And Thank you so much, I hope you had a great holiday too, also wish you a happy new year in advance, friend!
have a wonderful new year!
I enjoyed this playthrough so much thank you for the content

It seems like whenever you trigger the listen mode/view item mode the hints pop up more, could be coincidental.
its possible i think its a number of that and kind just going idle that triggers the hints.
The ellie Joel relationship is go well do, makes you want to keep playing to see how it plays out.
i love it so far. I got a feeling they are gonna be so close by the end of this game.

1:51:14 No, you didn't miss this door, you opened it here - 1:16:12
A good memory, but a short one. 😁😁
@@dvth37 was talking about the door we missed 2 EPs ago before we met Bill in the town with the record store not the door with the X
Ah, I see. Let's hope there was nothing interesting there. 😜
1:10:25, they actually executed that girl that took them on 5 hour standoff. Same girl/woman from the note. Edit: I remember them saying they shot her in the head cause she was too much trouble and she would kill them in their sleep.
ahh yeah your right they did get that girl that's sad but bound to happen unless she got out some how.
You should play cyberpunk on the channel
I'm hoping to get that on at some point in the near future not sure when though as we def need to beat Baldur's Gate 3 and RDR2 before we jump into another huge open world game.
