    (SPOILERS) i really don't see why you all care so much about ellie's sexuality, the important thing about the kiss was how innocent it was, as well making her and riley's connection (and loss) even stronger.

    Now this is rare...a DLC that doesn't have the sole purpose of giving you shitty content while stealing your money. This is everything a DLC should be in a single player based game. Naughty Dog, you bless us all with your presence.
    Also, the fighting is definitely necessary. Why would you have a DLC for The Last of Us with no fighting? Zombies/infected play a MAJOR role in the game. It only makes sense to fight them too.

      I think one of the key elements of The Last of Us is it's way of making you forget the world you are in and snapping you back into reality with a number of time spaced battles with the infected. Like how Ellie would snap in and out of her last day with Riley and the current day she is in.

    I think fighting was pretty necessary and it strengthened Ellie's character a lot. It shows you that she's willing to get through infected and hostile humans just to save Joel. Ellie really struggled hard to get what Joel needed and that contained at least a dozen infected. A dozen infected against a 14 year-old girl. You wouldn't get that "holy shit, she really DOES care, a lot" feeling if there was no fighting.

      No, a game isn't a combat simulator. Its not necessary for a game - granted, a lot of the time it is, but there are some cases where its not. You're still playing the character even if you don't get to shoot people

    • @PeterEhik
      @PeterEhik 4 роки тому +1

      shooting and stabbing stuff isnt the only gameplay. Crafting, sneaking and exploring are all a big part of it as well and this game would've been more unique if there was no combat because all the combat felt forced, especially at the end. I would've preferred to just be able to use the infected to get rid of the human enemies and then sneak past whoever's left.

      Kevin Edwards Dude, it's not a decision, you are biologically driven to be attracted to a particular sex, be it hetero or homosexual. People begin discovering their sexuality at about 13, younger even for girls. It's completely natural and in their case it is really touching. They were able to be together without the ridiculous judgement cast upon them from a long-gone prudish society.

    But that was the beauty of the game.
    Those silly, special moments between the two had to be done, in order for the player to understand and place themselves in the shoes of Ellie and Riley. Those moments seemed pointless at times right? But without them, there is no drive behind the emotion--no drive behind the immersion to bring tears down your face.
    I thought it was beautiful, 10/10, and the way the entire game and story played out was so unique, you don't see that in video games nowadays.
    Whatever they did, they did it right. Thank you for reading.

    The combat really demonstrates the lengths that Ellie goes to too protect Joell and as Riley says, ''We gotta fight for every minute we can spend together'', and Ellie was doing just that, THIS is in no way forced, it makes 100% sense. And Riley's little speech also added even more weight to the end of the main campaign! Nearly brought a tear to my eye :-) LOVE this DLC.

    This is the first Sotry DLC i think Naughty Dogs has ever made? And it's worth every single buck you have to pay for it! Just like the main campaign, it is perfection! The story and the gameplay is yet again an Amazing journey. Short sure... I Spent about 3 hours and a couple of minutes on this DLC.And i got as much out of it as i could. I didn't rush as i bet many of the people who said it only took them 1 hour and 45 min probably did. The ''twist'' whit Ellie... I'm not spoiling anything here. But that was a brave one by Naughty Dogs. That i doubt many studios would have done. You all know what i'm talking about so no need to spoil it for those who haven't plaid it. But that scene was so strong! So yea... Personally i think LEFT BEHIND just like the main game deserves a 10. And i am not one to give out 10's often. The Last of Us is the Second game to ever recive one. The Last one came out befor the 2000's so yea... You do the math yourself. HAHA! The Last of Us is not only The Best on the Last gen... It's one of the best games ever made! It's art!

    I thought this DLC is one of the best single player DLC ever! It's not just a prequel, it's a missing piece of Ellie's story, and this piece made The Last Of Us complete.
    And I don't think the combat is pointless, I find it's rather clever to input the gameplay where the original TLOS storyline left blank, it fits perfectly.
    At that moment, Ellie feels all alone again as she is so worried that she might be losing Joel too, and all the sequences remind her of Riley.
    Naughty Dog, you guys are video game version of Pixar. The entire game done better than most movies we've got nowadays.

    Just to clarify the recurring question of Ellie never having seen clickers in the main story. The dlc is evenly split between between her time when she had to find medicine to save Joel (present) & having fun in the mall with Riley (past). All of the combat takes place during the hunt for Joel's medicine, thus she had already seen clickers by that point in time. She had only seen the runner stage in the past. Btw, dlc was fantastic & worth every penny of the $15 for the sheer quality.

    this DLC was absolutely excellent. Fallout: New Vegas and Dishonored had my vote for best DLC up until now. Left Behind just tops them all. It's that good. The same kind of tense emotional drama from the original game is there, the same wonder of exploration exists, the lighthearted games that Ellie & Riley play are awesome, the pun jokes are laugh-out-loud hilarious, the ending is just as emotionally jarring as the main story ending, the voice acting is superb as always, the timeskipping narrative is brilliantly executed, and the background score is EVEN BETTER than the main game! off to replay it again! Five stars, naughty dog. you guys truly are geniuses.

    Just finished it. I was surprised how short it was. Didn't expect it to end that fast... Shame because it felt so good to play again.
    @OckhamAsylum:
    Dull and overrated? I think the game is suberb. Really liked the setting, characters and just how it played. The limited supplies and the excitement when you have a room full of clickers. That experience is mainly the first playthrough.
    But you saying its dull and overrated is just trolling.

  • @knurdyob

    this DLC made me feel like I've never felt before, it was so unexpected and different man, Naughty Dog proved again to themselves how they're the best developer or even if you don't agree you have to admit they're on the top 2! but ND, don't get too cocky, you still have to make the sequel to one of the greatest achievements in gaming, focus!

  • @MegaSantaclaude
    @MegaSantaclaude 11 років тому +1

    I actually prefer playing as Ellie. Because she can't use shivs, takedowns is pretty straight forward, and (from my understanding) dosn't attract Clickers. If Joels takedown is done wrong, and he ends up smashing their face in, instead of strangling them, the infected will be all over you. So that's what I like about playing as Ellie. Her takedowns can only go one way. I think the new mechanic with turning enemies on eacother is a brilliant idea, and I really enjoyed finishing this DLC. I hope ND will make a second game for next gen. :)

    Naughty Dog does it YET again. How have they kept up their high quality work for so long?! They truly are one of, if not the best developers, right now and ever. You may not like their games but at the least everyone can acknowledge that Naughty Dog truly does put great attention and detail into every aspect of their games. Something I really appreciate from game developers.

    * They didn't grow together at BQZ, Ellie met Riley a couple of months ago before the events of left behind. She was the new kid at the military school, and got close with her. (most of the other kids would bully or fight with her)* just had to clear that out.

    couple cons for you people who are thinking about buying it.
    1. $15 bucks for 1-3 hours of added story and gameplay.
    2. Aside from story, not a lot of new stuff here.
    3. Did i mention its short?
    4. Did i mention its $15?
    Im a huge last of us fan, and i would still buy this DLC even after playing it and seeing how short it is. But Sony and Naughty Dog (if they had a say in how much this DLC would cost) should have given us a break and charged $10 bucks.

  • @Ibl33dGr33n4Life
    @Ibl33dGr33n4Life 11 років тому +8

    Gotta say though, I don't see why IGN felt they didn't need the combat, as great as the relationship between Ellie and Riley was portrayed and the conversations they had were entertaining and really built up their characters, I feel like if all we did was walk around and look at the mall it would have been a waste of money, also what's with all the homophobic shit? Sure Ellie and Riley kissed, big deal, they're girls, girls have a different way of expressing themselves emotionally than dudes do, I mean they do everything together. And even if they went that route completely (which I don't think they were lesbians) and made it obvious if she were gay, who cares? Is that still an issue? does it ruin the legacy of Last of Us? Don't be narrow minded people, it's 2014, times are changing.

    • @Ibl33dGr33n4Life
      @Ibl33dGr33n4Life 11 років тому +2

      ***** I hasn't always been a bad thing either. In all honesty whats so wrong with gay people? Sure I don't agree with it, don't understand it but they aren't hurting or bothering me or anyone else so I don't see a problem with them. Whether someone is gay or not really doesn't matter to me.

    • @Ibl33dGr33n4Life
      @Ibl33dGr33n4Life 11 років тому +4

      ***** how is that "anything goes"? Is it really so wrong for gay people to appear in any form of media? They're the same as us straight people. what they do at home with whoever they do with it is none of my concern

    • @Ibl33dGr33n4Life
      @Ibl33dGr33n4Life 11 років тому +3

      I don't see what is so wrong that they should be hidden though? I don't really agree with them or understand them but I don't see how they are a problem. How is it morally wrong? That's who they are, it's their life. What negative effect does this have on our society? I look at ones sexuality like ones race, and neither really bother me because the way they act and treat other people is what matters. I don't care if you go home to a woman or a man at night, asl ong as you are a good or decent person is all that matters

    • @Ibl33dGr33n4Life
      @Ibl33dGr33n4Life 11 років тому +3

      ***** What makes it wrong though?, that's my point and that's what I'm asking. They are happy and they love each other and in the end of the day how is that any different than a man and woman loving each other.Sure it's odd to some to see men with men and women with women because it's not what we've been taught. I personally don't have a problem with them at all, I welcome them into our society as well as anyone else who are productive, treat people well and live their life honestly and do what makes them happy. There is a lot more things in this world to worry about than gay people. And at the end of the day they are still people. It's not like them being in movies or games is "creating" more gay people as if it's some kind of trend, if anything the gay people watching this movie or playing this game may just get the courage to stop hiding it and be themselves. Your entitled to your opinion and I respect that, but I'm just wondering why you find it so "morally wrong", stealing is morally wrong, so is killing, being a pedophile or rapist or any kind of sex offender, and in general victimizing people in any way possible. Now, compare that to seeing two men or women holding hands out on the streets, not hurting no one, is that so morally wrong?

      the problem with some is that they think if they pay $15 for it then they should get 15 - 20 hours of gameplay. to me that's not a dlc they want an expansion at such low price. i have not seen a dlc for $15 that has such long hours of gameplay. open world games don't count.

  • @LordCousland
    @LordCousland 11 років тому +2

    I didn't expect that we are going to play during Winter at all. I loved it! Everything they put into this is nicely done, and it's well worth the price. I might be biased though, because I can't describe how much I love the main game.
    But, when I heard what's going to be the story about I was expecting one particular scene, sadly that hadn't been shown. Namely Riley's death. Seriously, everyone already knew that these two girls are going to get bitten, no knew information there, but what we didn't not know is how Riley turned and Ellie didn't. How she had to "deal" with her friend after that. Was she forced killed her? Or she just run away? What did she do after she realized she is immune? Did she try to end her life and gave up? Maybe Marlene found her just in time and talked her into that "saving the world" nonsense? Or what exactly happened?
    Sadly we never know. And that's what I would have liked to see. Still, as it stands the DLC is great. I enjoyed it. But at the end I feel a little bit disappointed that those crucial moments weren't shown. I mean what's point showing the last moment's of Riley's life with Ellie if you didn't even show the most important part of it?

  • @Justmyhandle
    @Justmyhandle 10 років тому +1

    I LOVED this DLC almost as much as the main game. People can say it's overrated or over hyped all they want, that's their opinion just as this is mine, and I'm cool with that. I found it overall to be not perfect but truly great. It's one of those rare experiences where I invested myself more in story than gameplay, which was excitedly tense despite being unrealistic at times. As cool as the diverse play styles and strategy were, I still found the plot to be the star attraction unlike many games where mechanics are spotlighted. It was like watching an interactive movie (similar to the Walking Dead games), regularly contemplating the characters' relationships and state of mind, itching to know what happened next! It takes a lot to water my eyes, but when Sarah died, Ellie almost got the worst treatment from David, and Joel chose saving her over curing mankind among other moments, I laughed at myself for caring so much about what I knew were characters in a game. That's TLOU's strength, making you care, something zombie stories in particular rarely manage to do anymore after being overdone so much. Regardless of what we debate over its merits, it's a clear fact that The Last of Us is a defining achievement in both gaming history and the zombie genre. From what happened after the college escape to Riley and Ellie's kiss, everything in this extra chapter matters in context of the characters and campaign without feeling like it's just trying to add content for its own sake. I really hope they make a 2 at some point, there's so much more they could expand on in both gameplay and the future of the story.

    I would have liked it to be longer in a sense where the was more to hear and find. Combat would have been nice to keep in those two parts where it was needed, but I'd rather have more things to look at and explore to really soak in the story and world setting. The ending felt rushed, and it is sad that it was cause it was great but it needed to be longer. Also... Nah, its too early to bring that up now, it just it was very well done if anyone took the time to listen and explore.

      Squall Leonhart I actually think TLoU's solution is better than TressFX since TressFX makes hair jumpy and wiry. TLoU uses animations but ND are masters at animation and they probably made a ton of them just for the hair. TressFX will get better, though.

      Ellie's hair reminds me of Lara's without TressFX on PC, I'll take another look.

    The DLC wasn't flawless, however, $15 is an appropriate price tag for a 2-3 hour DLC. It's a much better value than most DLC at the same price. The full game cost $60 at release for a 12-15 hour story on first playthrough. Left Behind is about 1/5 the length of the campaign for 1/4 the price.
