Comment on The Last of Us totally blew me away
TomSelleck@lemm.ee 1 week agoI disagree with part 2 “jumping the shark”. The first game starts out with
Tap for spoiler
Joel’s daughter being killed
which was much more “twist the narrative just for shock value”. The game itself is an enjoyable playthrough, it’s just a depressing story. Joel deserved what he got.

People dying at the start of a zombie apocalypse is standard fair at this point. Finding someone in a post apocalyptic world based only on their name years later in a world where everyone is just barely surviving was a bit ridiculous.
It felt a bit like the inverse of Game of Thrones (where it felt like anyone could die), the second part decided this person must die.

If you had played the rest, the explanation for how they found him is pretty plausible.
