Forums - Gaming Discussion - TLOU:R isn't worth it

Re-releasing The Last of Us right now makes a lot of sense.

Many PS4 owners did not have a PS3 last gen, so these are potential "future customer" for the franchise. They must be likely to be working on a sequel right? (I have not completed the game. Please do not spoil. Just looking for a Yes or No)

Any sales for this Re-master is beneficial. The game has over 5M sales from people who owned a PS3. If TLOU2 releases in a couple years then the potential to grow from the original is greater, since the player base is now larger.

 

Waiting to re-release this AFTER The Last of Us 2 would be a terrible move. Saying it would be better if they worked on something else instead of this makes no sense. It is a great growth opportunity for the franchise. Why would you not take advantage?

To add further weight to the "it is a great growth opportunity"   , ND has commented that the remaster has given them a lot of useful data ,  and that the  code has allready been used to great effect in building UC4 .

I never played it and will gladly pay $60 for it. If you don't like the remaster then it's simple. Don't buy it lol

Zero999 saying the game would sell more if "any arbitrary conditions happens" is funny since he never predict anything right by a couple millions margin. So now I rest safe that sony made the best choice.

I didn't know basic knowledge is now "arbitrary conditions". also saying that I "never predict anything right by a couple millions margin" is a lie AND trying to derail the thread.


You say your assumptions are basic knowledge, yet no one agrees with you... and I'm certain of seeing several threads of yours with WiiU to sell 15M in one FY and other similar predicitions, how is that a lie? And you are accusing me of derailing my own thread just by saying that you reasoning something against the game is a guarantee that the game will do well? How come?

one year being too soon isn't MY assumption, it's common sense/basic knowledge.

how is this a lie "he never predict anything right by a couple millions margin."? simple, it's not true and you know that while saying it. it had the objective to provoke me and isn't related to the thread, thus the derail.

It's a Game of the Year Edition with updates to compliment the PS4, and it's coming out a year after the original. I think I saw someone earlier in the thread say that people's beef with the game is that it's called "Remastered" instead of "Game of the Year". It's only "Remastered" because it's on the PS4, but other than that, for all intents and purposes, it is "TLOU: GOTY Edition". Do you try this hard to undermine any other GOTY edition of a game? Skyrim? Borderlands? LBP? Batman? Gears 2? All those games have re-releases, a year after the original came out, packed with all the DLC, and sold at a reduced price from standard MSRP. It happens pretty much every year with the biggest games from the prior year. But now a year is too soon...and it being too soon is common knowledge?

I guess instead of:

 

Those respective studios should have had completely new games done, because to release such things only a year after the original? It's common knowledge that it's "too soon"

Don't forget GOTY editions don't sell 1-2M so people are less worried about them... they don't sell to much HW also.

Just seen the screenshot of the PS4 version and DAMN... I did not see any differences.
