Yeah, PS5 got the -75% upgrade while Xbox only got -50%. And anyone who didn't upgrade by June 15 now is shit out of luck and has to pay the full $40. What is most obnoxious about it is that you have to own GTA V Online for Series X|S ($20) in order to purchase GTA V Story Mode for Series X|S ($20) even if don't give a single fuck about their predatory MTX delivery system.PS5/Xbox5 native versions of GTA 5 were released in March I think. Cost me 10 dollars or something on PS5.
TLoU 1 was a good game. It looked very good for its time, and has already been remastered to pick up the low hanging fruit like resolution and frame rate. Visually, which is where the new remake made almost every improvement, the original remaster was perfectly fine and held up plenty well enough. It’s already playable and free on ps5, so it’s not a matter of bringing it forward to be playable on current gen. The gameplay itself is a bit dated, but they made absolutely no updates to that.I never played Last of us. I watched the game instead. If I had a PS5 I might consider getting it.
Too put this from a different angle, if Everquest ever came out with a graphic enhancement that was similar, I would be all over it.
Yes, you have used the correct pronouns: was/were (part of the ~40%).Wasn't there a Last of Us 2 thread on here? Can't find it in the search. Maybe it got merged into this one....

In any case, I'm checking out TLOU2 more finally during a bout of insomnia. Why am I playing as Abby? There's nothing appealing about this character. I like the game a lot more when it switches back to Ellie since at least there's a history there. Though she seems like a totally different character from TLOU, super morose in comparison, so it's almost like I don't know anybody in this game.
The visuals are stunning at least.
Is Abby supposed to be a transgender character? Game refers to Abby as a woman, certainly sounds like a woman, looks like a guy. Not sure I understand the design choice here. And again, nothing appealing, she's a charisma-less void.
I don't hate the game though. Finding it a better play than Uncharted 4 (which I'm also trying to cross off the list). UC4's characters are like 10x more interesting and charismatic, but Good Lord that game constantly slows down when I have to do another interminable climbing section. At least TLOU2 mostly action and scavenging.

Lol he also sold me some sweet DR Seuss books so my son could be a shitlord too!You seriously never heard about any of this?
How is that possible?

I heard about TLOU2, I just didn't spend any time thinking about it.

TLOU2 update: Who was this game made for? Joel is in it for literally 5 minutes before they beat him to death on camera. Like "hey, fans! You like this character? Well fuck you!"
And then they make you play as Abby and are all "PLZ SYMPATHIZE"
How about no?
Imagine if this game were restructured and Joel's death happened like halfway through. First half is you playing as Joel and Ellie, with some switches over to Abby, so you actually get to know her and the other side of the story. Like make you empathize with her looking for her dad's killer or whatever it is, without you knowing just who it is. Imagine the shock when we find out it was Joel all along once the two stories finally intersect.
Jesus, I just came up with that on the fly for this post. These people worked on this for how many years?
That honestly would be so much better. It could actually work. Killing Joel feels like cheap shock or pure disrespect for the first chapter.TLOU2 update: Who was this game made for?
