What’s that? There is a #LastOfUsPartII Remaster out now? And I should play it right now? Well, okay—it is one of my favourite games. 😁
Download faster, I’m impatient! 😅
(Why PS5 no show speed? Had to check router 🤷‍♀️)
It’s go time! (Incidentally, Joel’s intro dialogue is some serious foreshadowing)
But seriously, what type of shitty militia were the Fireflies that a single man could take out their entire operation??
What’s the downside of eating a clock?


It’s time consuming 😜

I like how they got queer rep in this game. Ellie, Dina, Lev are explicitly lesbian, bi, trans respectively. It makes me smile 🙂

Also, “I was talking about your fight… wait you kissed Dina?!” 🤣
#LastOfUsPartII

Dina uses “gay”. It’s super effective.

If a dude plays guitar at you: ugh 🙄
If Ellie plays guitar for you: super adorbs.

tl;dr: I really enjoy the between-the-combat moments in #LastOfUsPartII

Is #LastOfUsPartII hinting at a Naughty Dog Gaming Universe wherein Nathan Drake banks in Seattle? Or just a fun easter egg? 🤔
This death is on you, Joel! (I refused to swim after Joel pushed Ellie into the river, so she drowned). But cannot stay dead forever when dinosaurs are around the corner! #LastOfUsPartII
You will not go to space today 😅 (But good imagination, kid) #LastOfUsPartII
Going back out into the world of #LastOfUsPartII. Wish me luck!

Good luck

lol. I love the fact that the method to becoming a super soldier is basically just “eat your multivitamins” 😂
#LastOfUsPartII
What game was the girl playing on her Vita in #LastOfUsPartII ? I don’t immediately recognize it (may not be a real game, but if I had to guess, I’d assume it is a Naughty Dog title as an easter egg)
I feel so sad for Ellie. She’s had such a traumatic life and, in this moment, she is so completely broken as a person (after confronting/torturing Nora). Excellent acting though, and it breaks you (the player) too—Ellie will just stand there until you press a button to strike. It’s intense.
#LastOfUsPartII
On a lighter note: I appreciate the accessibility feature for visual highlighting—soooooooo much easier to see where interactable items are. #LastOfUsPartII
Just starting “Seattle Day 1”, the second time. First time I played this game, it was such an unexpected twist. The concept of “the enemy” really gets blurred when you play both sides.
#LastOfUsPartII
Welcome to Owen’s underwater realm. Perfect for kissies 😘😂 #LastOfUsPartII

This was an impactful scene to me, with Abby realising what her found family is (and that it ain’t the Wolves that took her in). Also that the cycle of revenge killing needs to stop—Yara and especially Lev show her a different path. #LastOfUsPartII

(This scene was after another PTSD flashback of her running through the hospital where her Dad was murdered, but instead of seeing him dead on the floor of the OR as usual, she sees Lev and Yara instead)

Taking a break from playing #LastOfUsPartII to watch a two hour making-of documentary about it that just dropped 😅

Grounded II: Making The Last of Us Part II

YouTube

Just remembering back, it’s wild to think that the reason I’m playing The Last of Us at all can be traced back to me wanting a blu-ray player circa 2008.

Back in the day, the PS3 was the best blu-ray player, so I bought a bundle from the Sony store that included Uncharted 1 (another Naughty Dog game). I’d never heard of Uncharted, but ended up really liking it (the first, and subsequently the full series).

So when Naughty Dog released The Last of Us, I was raring to see what they had made. Loved it. Later, when #LastOfUsPartII was announced, and it was revealed Ellie was the protagonist, I was already sold on it (I’m a sucker for story-driven games and strong female protagonists). Now I apparently play it once a year, at least 😅

Perfect gift for Lev: is it because he likes sharks, or, because he’s trans and it’s obviously a mini BLÅHAJ? 🤔
#LastOfUsPartII
God damns, the farm section destroys me every. single. fucking. time. You think it’s an epilogue. Ellie and Dina are building a life together with little JJ. Then Ellie fucking leaves 💔
#LastOfUsPartII

It hits especially hard since, immediately before that final scene, there is the dance as a flashback cutscene. #LastOfUsPartII
