Any significant time gap that occurs in the narrative such as the span of time it takes Abby and Lev to reach Santa Barbara in the game’s third act, could have been explored. That is an experience that Abby’s character sorely needed and deserved in order for players to better understand or empathize with her, but it would have also just been fun to explore her brutal, pugilistic combat further and see more about what her life was like with the Washington Liberation Front following her father’s death. Players know a lot about Ellie’s life, for example, and have gotten to empathize with her because of how much time is spent either playing as her or playing alongside her while she is an NPC. While last years sequel to 2013s The Last of Us looked like it would once again send Ellie and Joel out into the expanding backdrop of the. Still, it will always be unfortunate that The Last of Us 2 never featured a DLC that centered on Abby. The latest Naughty Dog rumours claim The Last of Us Part II could be expanding its post-release content with a gritty DLC focussing on the hardened Abby. In the months after the game had been released, and even to some degree almost two years later now, Abby’s character was reviled for her actions throughout The Last of Us 2. If it had been announced post-launch that The Last of Us 2was receiving a single-player DLC expansion starring Abby in any capacity, it would have likely been received contentiously. There are countless instances of events and characters that could have been explored more while Ellie and Joel lived in Jackson, and it is a shame that players were not able to have those experiences be playable in DLC. Although it would run the risk of feeling like it was repeating Left Behind’s story of Ellie and a love interest, The Last of Us 2 could have featured her more in a DLC. Ellie had dated a girl named Cat, and she is not seen throughout the game. Otherwise, there is also a past relationship Ellie has that The Last of Us 2 mentions multiple times. In this case, different patrols could be explored with other Jackson residents tagging along as NPCs, and where gameplay had players encounter unique infected swarms and leaned more toward combat as a result. He also did the DLC.Įdit: Just checked and he's uploaded parts 6, 12 and 13 to Daily Motion.These are some of the most emotionally impactful moments in The Last of Us 2, chiefly due to Joel’s presence as an NPC following his fateful demise in the present day, but also due to the context of The Last of Us’ final flashback and the last conversation he and Ellie share together. Gives me goosebumps hearing it.Īlso, whose playthrough are you watching? I'd recommend FRANKIEonPCin1080p because he doesn't talk over anything, but the last couple of his playthrough videos were taken down because of copyright claims. If you like the playthrough you're watching, I'd get the music. I found that the Last Of Us' story was really helped out by the atmosphere of the game as well as the music and there isn't a game that I can say has had the same impact on me. It's not necessarily the story of the Fireflies. That's great news for those of us who played the end of the game and wondered if it could be continued in some way. I liked GTA V's story, so that's an option when it comes out. At the end of December or the beginning of January there will be a DLC that will continue the story of The Last of Us. Noire, the Mass Effect Series, Alan Wake (if you like a bit of horror), and Assassin's Creed 2 and 4 all have good stories. Then there's Red Dead Redemption which is another console exclusive. Some people like Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls, which again are console exclusives. The closest things story wise to the Last Of Us are other Naughty Dog games, which are all console exclusives. Haven't played any of the Dragon Age games, so can't comment on that.
