I don't get the hate for The Last of Us games, though. The combat is not supposed to be a first person shooter or some kind of arcade fun fest, it's supposed to feel like being yourself in that situation, trying to hit a charging monster or person in a messed up situation. It's realistic, awkward, difficult and you hope you don't run out of bullets because they're scarce. In a zombie apocalypse, you would not be Master Chief or the Doom guy, you would be crapping your pants trying to hit something. |
Realism in video games doesn't necessarily translate to fun in video games. I do agree that this game has a very realistic element (although let's be honest one person dragging a little girl around beating a room of 20 bad guys with guns one by one doesn't scream realistic to me). I'll take the original Metal Gear Solid on PS one. The game was stealth and realistic but the action was way faster than in the Last of Us.
Plus in the end the game sold well so it seems to me I might be in the minority with regards to my opinion. I'm just pointing something out I did not enjoy about that game to the point I thought it was best to watch the rest of the game on YouTube than beating it myself.
