Literally :lol:

More of the same but a larger world with more factions. I'll take that. Hype levels returned to normal. Cannot wait for this now.

I meant purely in terms of gameplay, even Dominic Cummings would see it's improved graphically. ;)

I meant it situationally than in terms of graphics. Wasn't being a snark.

I'm not sure what you'd expect? It looks similar, but greatly expanded, just what you want from a sequel, righ?

I haven't played the original in a couple of years but tonights footage didn't look greatly expanded to me by comparison. Similar, aye. That being said, I'm sure it'll be just what people who held the first game in high regard were looking for. Just not for me.

I played it fairly recently and this looks like quite the evolution to me, looking forward to it. Kinda gutted I couldn't resist watching the SoP, I want it to be fresh, but I'm too weak willed.. :fp:

Sound design is taken to another level in this. The general weight of movement and contextual animation is incredible. I like there are more open areas with options too. I can't wait for this world to just chew me up again.

Main takeaways for me:

-Not all that footage was of the player controlling Ellie. I assume the one with the mask on was the woman we’ve seen being hanged by the cult.
- Ellie finally learned how to swim.
- The dogs are going to ruin this for me. I definitely play slow stealth and this will make it not viable anymore.

From what they showed in the footage, that dog wasn't on Ellie's scent right away. So a viable tactic may be to lead it away from its humans and then lie in wait to dispatch it silently with a bow and arrow, then you can go back to your slow stealth as the guards search for you.

Her dropping a molotov on the dog and hearing the noise it made while it burned bothered me a lot more than I expected it to.

Yeah, I totally get people being upset by the killing of the dogs. Just remember that it's optional – you don't have to kill them.

I thought it was a Vita. Whatever it was, she was playing or listening to Hotline Miami and deserved better.


Definitely Vita. Released 2 years before the games outbreak. She’s taken good care of it when you consider this must be 2038??

I want to watch it but I refused as I don't want to be spoiled.

I'll find out on the day it's released.

This is out on my birthday. I couldn't resist putting in a preorder on Base. Very much bought into the hype after the State of Play.

Why are people so apposed to dog killing compared to humans in this game?

It's not like the dogs are some little kids pet puppies in cute costumes and you can see the kid bursting into tears as they watch them melt in hellfire from a Molotov or have a face vapourised by a shotgun. They're vicious attack dogs who want to rip Ellie's tits off.
