Why the hell is this early fight so hard? Am I doing something wrong?

The heavy draugr are just so hard to kill, and it makes it hard to pick off the regular ones

I finally got it after like 20 tries by spamming the axe throw early on, and leaving one of the two heavy draugr barely alive while I fight the other so that the next wave wouldn’t start

Saw a video essay on part 2, suggesting that the final fight was unnecessary, and I kinda see it. Thoughts?

The video (from LikeStoriesOfOld) was praising heavily the game so it’s not a hate post, I love it too. It said that Ellie could have had the flashback of Joel on the porch before taking Abby down from the cross, and I think that would be beautiful, letting the scene end there.

After seeing how much pain Abby went though by being enslaved, Ellie realizes she went through even more pain than Ellie herself could inflict. By having the last chapter be almost like a rescue mission for Abby, I think it would make a lot of sense, where she murders a group of people who are the first actually unambiguously BAD people compared to all the groups we learn about, also creating more empathy and understanding for the other groups.

(BTW I think that last group and slavery in general is a great idea for tlou to explore and I wish it would’ve been a bit more fleshed out, maybe in a part 3 that could happen)

It would remove the “fake out” feeling, that made some people get confused or have false hope.

Still love the ending though! Beautiful game

If the version of The Forever Story on JID’s profile (/the one used on charts by aoty) included 2007, it could probably be top 25 all time (rating is already top 5)

It really is his best song so an album being rated 90 without its best song just shows how good it is.

Or do you think most people already rate it considering 2007? I mean when most people rated it (at release) it didn’t include the song for good while

This Chilean band just dropped another awesome album very similar to early BCNR. Their debut (La Brea) is also great

Intros of both albums are the best songs btw if you wanna see if you’ll like the rest, but the vibe does change along the album a bit
