I only pre-ordered because I have a digital PS5. Just wait for your Worten copy, my friend. 12 euros difference is no joke if you have the disc version.

Different strokes for different folks but those changes, I don't mind at all. There mightve been other changes they could've made but I'm fine with what they've change. It's a matter of preference after all...

Can I think the game is overpriced and already have it preordered at the same time?

lol thats ok. Let me know what you think. I will get it when it comes to PC. GMG and CD Keys typically have preorder sales around $40-45.SlimySnake forgive me for I have pre ordered and pre loaded
Despite not liking tlou2 that much, the first is still a masterpiece and even if it looks like tlou2 with slightly higher Rez, at least I’ll want to replay it unlike part 2

I wouldn’t bet that it fails but I’d like to see Sony say that it didn’t meet their commercial expectations. This is a remake of a relatively recent game and it’s £70. I want to see more original games, not remakes of new games. Not to mention it has been remastered already.
Anyone coming in with the ‘but it’s their original vision’. No I don’t believe that for a second, it’s a quick way to make money.

Personally I'd love to see some older games remade. Infamous automatically comes to mind, but I doubt that will happen. Older Ratchet and Clank titles would be pretty cool just like Insomniac did with the first game. Uncharted? Heck yeah. So no, I don't want to see this fail. Last time I played TLOU was on the PS3. I've forgotten more than I remember about the game in that time so I'm pretty excited about playing it again with TLOU 2 visuals. As far as making money, that's what these companies do. Is it overpriced? Yeah, probably. Am I buying anyway? Yep, so I really can't complain. I have no problem with people voting with their wallets. Let the market decide.

Oh i don't give a fuck, but you can read the past topics when they showed ellie or joel or tess for the first time and some people were mad because they look older\different.
It still Doesn't sound any more ridicolous than beloved camera movement\character positioning if you ask me, especially when we have proof that tlou2 has better and bold direction for the cutscenes so if they had touched the remake it would have been even better than the original game most assuredly.

How do you know it isn't already using Kraken Decompression? There isn't any other version to compare and say it isn't already compressed.

Lol, was thinking the exact same thing. They even pre ordered it before me, someone who's been stanning the game nonstop, which is fucking wild and hilarious. I mean, if I had the same sentiments they've been preaching for the past few months, I wouldn't buy the game, let alone preorder it.

The bar this year is really low
Nothing from Microsoft or Nintendo literally all year
Sony’s had a good year in comparison, but there’s no third parties I want at all this fall, so I have basically TLOU 1 and GOW:R and that’s it
I still think they could have been much more ambitious on this remake, but it’s still a classic game and it looks and plays better now

Probably not possible because of the PC version. The game must work on PC HDDs and without Kraken compression.

Maybe. Wait and see on that one, not a big dead space fan but I can appreciate what it’s doing

There are countless amazing games you haven’t played. Every game doesn’t have to have just been released. This is a horrible reason to buy it if you think it looks bad/not worth $70 (not saying this applies to you, doesn’t sound like it does).
James Sawyer Ford

I don’t think it looks bad
I just don’t like the precedent it sets
Maybe there are amazing games for others, not for my tastes though. This year outside of Sony first party and elden ring is pretty sparse

I don’t even mean released in 2022. Surely there are countless games you haven’t played but want to? Unless you’re basically the only person here without a backlog of any kind, then sure.

No I know realistically it will do ok, just wish Sony had gone another way. Bitter beaver is me. Sony is going to call it a win regardless of sales since it cost a lot less than a game from scratch to make.

Are you a moron? Why would they change any of the performance capture of TLOU when none of that was obsolete nor could have been done any better? We're talking about a modern game that was at the cutting edge of performance capture when it released the same year the PS4 came out. You don't fix what's not broken, but even then they went the extra mile and hand animated tons of more subtle expressions and gestures into the character's face and body animations during cutscenes.
Also, its funny how you talk about copying and pasting and how Bluepoint doesn't do that, when across both Shadow of the Colossus and Demon's Souls they did have the entire original code running in the background and handling the game logic, physics, collisions, etc, etc, under the fresh coat of assets and rendering technology provided by the Bluepoint engine. They didn't re-do any animations either, that's why those two games play exactly like the originals.

Probably just a remaster, you'll have to wait for the PS7.

That's 100% wrong at least for Demon's souls, all animations were completely redone and they even added new unique ones for weapon types. They just made sure they are exactly as long as the originals in order to not alter gameplay.

If there is something in his backlog that literally means he didnt like it enough to play it BACK then. Why would he play it now?
I am sitting here looking at Elden Rings, Cyberpunk, Mafia Remake, Halo Infinite, Deathloop, Guardians, CoD Vanguard, Avengers and I dont want to play ANY of those games. Even if i force myself to give them a try, i am bored in ten minutes. They are in my backlog for a reason. I couldnt care less about them.
This year has simply sucked. Two big releases at the start of the year and since then nothing. Fall is empty. Harry Potter looked good but god delayed. Starfield looked good but god delayed. GOW is pretty much the only big AAA game left aside from MW3. Calisto Protocol looks like a B game. Gotham knights looks like a B game. TLOU despite its last gen roots still looks like an AAA game.

Are you telling me you’ve played every single game in your backlog and have an opinion on it? You have played absolutely everything you have any interest in to this point, and are in a position where you can only play new releases moving forward?

Yes? Why wouldnt I play something I have an interest in?
If someone is telling you that they have no interest in any games coming out, why would you bring up older games that they had no interest in playing?

Perhaps a finite amount of free time? Glad you’re able to consume it all though!
And are you asking….why suggest someone work on their backlog in a time of no new releases? I mean idk since you’ve basically told me here the entire concept of having a backlog is impossible, since you/anyone would play literally every game you’ve been interested in ever at this point so I’m not sure how to answer that.

Sony has become so GD greedy this gen. $70 games, charging more than other companies for next gen updates that don't have much work put into them (GoT), cross gen games that shoulda been ps5 showcases, raising the price of ps5 in certain regions, and charging $70 for this without offering a discount to the fans who've already bought Last of Us twice.

Yea Sony should do what other publishers are doing and stop investing in AAA single player games.
Take MS for example, they didn't need to charge $70 to release all the games that they are releasing in 2022. As Dusk Falls went for only $30 and Pentiment will cost only $20.
