![]() ![]() The lines start to blur, and what happens when you can’t distinguish between good guys and the bad guys? The consequences of her actions (and of those closest to her) are real. In her mind, the ends justify the means and violence begets violence. Throughout the game, Ellie performs questionable actions and unspeakable acts of violence to achieve her mission. Things aren’t as clear cut or as black and white in the sequel. In fact, hate is what drives Ellie on her new adventure, and, as a result, the game’s narrative is more complex than the original, where all Ellie and Joel were concerned with was safely reaching the Fireflies to make a potential cure for the Cordyceps virus. The themes being explored in The Last Of Us Part 2 (as previously-revealed by game director Neil Druckmann) are hate and the cycle of violence. While I can’t reveal what happens, this tragic event spurs Ellie onto her new journey. Things start to become relatively normal for Ellie, until one day when disaster unexpectedly strikes. ![]() She now has friends and potential lovers, like Dina (whom she kisses in the previously-revealed Paris Games Week trailer) and Jesse, the Asian guy who can also be seen in one of the trailers. While the first game was pretty much the adventures of Ellie and Joel, the second game introduces a bunch of new characters, many of which have been revealed in promotional trailers and material for The Last Of Us Part 2.Įllie is no longer tied to just Joel for human companionship. ![]() The Last Of Us Part 2 takes place five years after the end of The Last Of Us, which means that we’re treated to an older Ellie and Joel who have settled in the peaceful town of Jackson in Wyoming. If anything, it could even be considered as one of the best games this generation has had to offer to date. Does that mean The Last Of Us Part 2 is a bad game? Hell, no. How can a sequel possibly live up to that? Well, the folks at Naughty Dog have done their damndest to make The Last Of Us Part 2 a worthy successor, and it surely comes close. To this day, Naughty Dog’s brilliant masterpiece is still widely-regarded not only as one of the best video games in history but also one of the games that’s meant to be a testament to how the medium should be seen as an art form, just as much as movies and music. It’s still unbelievable how much of a pop-culture juggernaut it has become since it originally launched for the PS3 back in 2013. Genre : Action-Adventure, Survival Horror, Tear-Jerker literally playing it with them.Review originally published on 12th June, 3:01 pm. ![]() This can still be fun for them, but it does mean parents need to dedicate time to observing this game. Possibly from there, I could leave and then the hosting duty would transfer to one of the kids in the server. The censor chat must be on, and preferably I would create this server, let my child's friends join in, and put it on "private" so no one can get in. I only let my child play if I have created the server, allowing me to kick players out or ban them. Not because of the game itself, but because of the open online forum style like this even with the censor chat engaged. The gamd designers say 13 and over, and quite honesly, my gut says 17 or 18. You might not see these things right away as some of the server names might sound normal to you, but believe me these things are in this game. Please, please take the time to really look deep into this game. I do not think this is healthy at all for kids as Among Us is just not the place to go for positive mental health. It is almost like it seems to be cool if you call yourself depressed and sad. The avatar names can be just as bad if not worse.Īnother thing I have noticed in this game are people who are "toxic." These are people who are essentially cyber bullying, calling people bad names, and are termed "toxic."Īnd then there are the avatars and/or rooms of depressed kids. the problem is a lot of kids might not understand exactly what some of these words, phrases, or slang and even shorthand mean. Yes, it is a fun game however, when the kids go on to find a "room" or server to play in, the titles of a lot of these servers are extremely inappropriate. I really am quite shocked that many parents allow their kids to play this game. ![]()
