Hmm, if you use Heavy Rain and Beyond:Two Souls, does that mean the Walking Dead is also a cinematic game...?
On the question itself, I`m not really sure how to answer. I don`t have much experience with them. The Last of Us is one of them, right...? I`d say a heavy cinematic focus is fine if the game itself is fine. The game has to be fun to play... |
No, TLOU is not even close to that.
That's why I hate this "interactive movie" bs that's going on, because most of the time people don't even know what they are talking.
They see a game with good graphics and that equals it to cinematic game with no gameplay and like an interactive movie.
TLOU is a pretty game, yes it is, it has a great story and a very strong story telling as well, but it's also a very solid game with a great gameplay.
The same goes to people that see a game that lack graphical quality, as indie games, and that equals it to being not being an actual game as it doesn't count as a game...

Woah there, I did not imply at any point that TLoU was an heavily focused interactive movie and was therefore a bad game. I only thought I recalled some people referred to that as a sort of cinematic game. I only wanted to know whether that was an example, and what other examples there would be. As for my other comment, I only refer to games in general, and not in any games in particular.

Don't worry, I also didn't focused it on you, but in the people that spread this kind of bs that othes go and repeat.
The simple fact that some attempted to pass TLOU as a game like that were proof enough some people just talk without actually knowing.
They spread what they hear/read as if it was true, and that's were the problem actually lies, a game will be pointed in some point by many simply because others wanted to try to pass it.
There is still people out there that truly believe TLOU is almost a movie and not a game, gladly this one had strength enough to crush it.

Sorry if it seemed like I was trying to spread that around. It`s just something I`ve heard mentioned before. I do see what they mean though. The game does seem to have some cinematic moments in the game, such as the early intro, and well.... I don`t want to go into spoiler territory. But it`s def not a bulk of it. Just some here and there.
