No achievement after playing on grounded

it's pretty much what the title says. I completed tlou ii on grounded+ yesterday, all the way through, and i... didn't get the achievement, it just never showed up.

Did i get it wrong? Can i not get the achievement on a new game+ anymore? i thought we still could. I used some combat accessibility features simply bc i usually play the game on easy/very easy so, but i thought since those are for, you know, accessibility for ppl who actually need it, it wouldn't stop ppl from getting achievements, did i get anything wrong? or is this a bug?

Would an X-com style Last of Us spinoff game be interesting?

I had a random shower thought about some kind of AA game that was done in the X-Com setting.

Maybe just using the characters and a spinoff storyline.

Watching Anthony Calibers (accidental) handcam WR has made me realise I have fundamentally been pressing the shooting button wrong in these games. I go POW [checks hit] POW [checks hit] POW [checks hit]. He goes p-p-p lighting fast.

Hello Everyone,

I co-host a gaming book club podcast called State of the Save. For this episode, we played the first half of Perfect Dark, and came away very positive. We analyze this game’s place in gaming history, coming out just one year before Halo, as well as being one of the many games to follow up what Goldeneye was doing in the console FPS space.

For this first part, we cover the game’s first nine missions, ending with Area 51: Escape

Perfect Dark discussion begins right at the 45:00 mark.

Finished the games 6 months ago and I still can't get over them.

I don’t know if it’s just me being overly emotional, but it’s been more than half a year since I finished The Last of Us and I’m still thinking about it daily. The story just hit entirely differently.
Anyone else deal with a massive gaming hangover from this franchise? How did you move on to other games?

How many people did Joel canonically kill in the hospital?

In the hospital, you can play it however you want, whether you kill everyone or just fully stealth it, but is it just assumed that Joel killed everyone in the hospital, because we see Jerry’s dead body, but you have to kill him to advance the story, so how many did he kill?

Fanfiction made me realise how much people love Joel

I've watched the show and plan to play the games in a week or two, but wanted to check out some fanfiction to fill the hole the show left. When I looked at AO3, I have never seen a fandom dominated by /Reader fics and they're all Joel I am genuinely impressed. Like I read a good amount of fanfiction and have been in different fandoms, but maybe it's different because this is the first video-game fandom (not counting Arcane/lol because those are completely different)

Of course I was sad when >!Joel died!< but I did not know the man was this beloved goddamn I really expected more Ellie/Reader fics if anything. I saw posts earlier saying they stopped watching on s2ep2 because of it but if fanfiction is indicative of people's character preferences all the negative posts on s2 I saw make sense now lol

That being said if anyone has good fanfic recs just generally (excluding /reader fics and Joel/OC) I will gladly take them

I put this under the general question flair because I didnt know where else to put it

Will I notice any changes in the action gameplay of The Last of Us Part II Remastered? I played The Last of Us Remake first.

New game + or full restart?

i was thinking of replaying Part 1 and couldn't decide whether to go new game plus or just a clean restart, i like the idea of starting with all the weapons and like skill upgrades but i don't want it to be too easy because of that, can anyone who's played new game plus tell me if you found it a bit too easy by having all of that stuff in the beginning. or if new game plus has some sort of new stuff that i should get for the first time aswell e.g collectibles and similar things.

I dont think Marlene knew just how close Joel was with Ellie.

Let me just say, I'm still mostly on the fence as I think there's evidence that she did know. It's also a very human thing to assume 2 people traveling together for months will bond and get close, especially an orphan child.

I saw a lot of people yesterday refer to this line from Marlenes recorded message to Anna "I'm not about to kill the one man in this facility that might understand the weight of this choice." as evidence that Marlene knew Joel wasn't going to accept Ellies surgery/death because how close they are.

Full recording goes:

>Hey Anna... It's been awhile since we spoke. I uh... I just gave the go ahead to proceed with the surgery. I really doubt I had much of a choice, asking me was more of a formality. I need you to know that I've kept my promise all these years... despite everything that I was in charge of, I looked after her. I would've done anything for her, and at times...Here's a chance to save us... all of us. This is what we were after... what you were after. They asked me to kill the smuggler. I'm not about to kill the one man in this facility that might understand the weight of this choice. Maybe he can forgive me. Oh, I miss you, Anna. Your daughter will be with you soon. 

I interpreted the recording as mostly about how much it pains Marlene herself to let Ellie go through the surgery. She knew her from birth, was close with her and her mom, and she would've been the one to escort her had she not been hurt at the start. If and I mean IF Marlene knows about Joels situation with losing his Sarah, I think THAT may be what she's referring to. I dont think she means "Joel understands because he doesnt want to lose Ellie either", I think she means Joel understands the pain of losing a daughter, which Ellie was to Marlene, in a way.

As for why she hopes for his forgiveness, it doesn't necessarily mean she's sorry for taking Ellie from him, but she hopes he wont judge her too hard on this sacrifice that she (Marlene) is also making. He had his daughter taken from him unwillingly, and she has Ellie alive and well but is willingly allowing her death. Or better yet, forced.

At the end of the day, the whole situation is just messed up. It could be a little of both, or I could be totally off the mark. I'm someone who understands what Joel did to save Ellie but I'm not someone who thinks the Fireflies and Marlene are evil and deserved what they got. Just throwing my 2 cents

Should I watch the show before playing the game?

I recently broke my arm and decided not to start playing the game until after it’s fully healed. I was wondering if I could still watch the show now or if I’ll have a better experience if I wait and play the game first.

It kinda bothers me that Abby’s rifle has no bullet drop while Ellie’s has severe bullet drop

By bullet drop I mean you need to tilt the crosshair up to compensate and hit where you want to hit originally, not ammo loot drop rate.

In the chinatown level you can crouch in the grass and shoot the sniper, if you use the hunting pistol there will be bullet drop, but if you use rifle there is none, that’s how I know.

For Ellie bullet drop doesn’t just apply to that one level where you can snipe Seraphite from afar in a train, there will be bullet drop if you shoot the guy on Capitol Hill 2f office, the girl on hillcrest 2f balcony/bedroom, the guy on a scaffold near a cafe in Day 3, on and on. Im pretty sure none of these is further than 100 yards, the bolt action rifle is literally water gun in this game.

Replaying TLOU2 and it's honestly even better the second time!

When I played TLOU2 for the first time 1.5 years ago I knew the one big spoiler (... why Abby wants to go golfing) but didn't know anything else.

It was amazing, but you miss a lot of subtleties or little details in the world on your first time. There are also a lot of interactions that carry more emotional weight once you know the character's full stories

I'm doing a playthrough now (Grounded, New Game+) and it's genuinely the best experience I've had in gaming. I've forgotten enough of the gameplay elements that the game keeps surprising/challenging me from a gameplay perspective but I'm really feeling the story way more on the second playthrough... literally teared up a few times

My GOAT game and for anyone who only played through it once, highly recommend giving it another run sometime :)
