Is this a review thread with no spoilers?

Came here to read some review comments and came across open spoilers.

I'm gonna avoid all TLOU threads until I complete the game then.



God bless You.

My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+

When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019

There were three ravens sat on a tree / They were as blacke as they might be / The one of them said to his mate, Where shall we our breakfast take?

Finally got the platinum. Some of those collectibles are really well hidden.

It'll be a long, long time before I pick this up again.

Did you miss many into your first playthrough?

I missed a fair few yeah. Even though I thought I was being really thorough in my Survivor playthrough.

TLoU2 is now only 10 games above the 93 score mark.
It shouldn't be getting much more score, but even 2 80s can probably make it get down to 93.

TLOU2 should be 83 and GoT should be 93. There, I said it.

Good Joke. 



Erm, I was under the impression that a full month in, everyone knew this stuff by now. Sorry.



Elli and Joel are one of the best characters in the gaming-world, again :) TLOU2 is so dark and wonderful.

It's a little frustrating. Seems like there's a lot to love, but the most common complaint is the combat. I don't know why Nintendo feels like they have to reinvent the wheel each time when they have a perfectly good system collecting dust.

I thought it was because they wanted to avoid the risk of cannibalizing sales between the Mario & Luigi and Paper Mario series since both were starting to make appearances on the same platforms.  I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo went back to making Paper Mario a traditional JRPG if the Mario & Luigi series is truly dead following AlphaDream's demise.

Might be a silly question but how do you guys find out if a game is on the higher or lower spectrum of its current score in metacritic? I kinda wanna see where ghost of tsushima is currently at.

I don't know how ratings are calculated in metacritic, but if it's based on average then TLOU2 is currectly at 93.5. If it gets anything less than a 92 it'll drop to 93.49 which i'm guessing is gonna be considered 93, dunno though. 



The game received another 100/100 today.

Also it seems (if is not confirmed already) that the game will receive an update adding a grounded mode (just like part I) and a permadeath mode (once you die you will start the game according to rumours).

But in a couple of hours/days we will see some confirmation.



Not sure I want to go through Ground Zero in Grounded and perma death. Especially the boss.
That would probably be too much.

And yes Im aware you dont need to do both grounded and perma death at once.

I got 90% of the collectibles on the first run, with 80% of the parts and meds, which was almost what was possible. And I know you didn`t ask me =p
