How does this happen

Dever is a form of fan service because people wanted her as Ellie back when it was gonna be a movie like 8 years ago.
By the time the show got made she had aged out of being suitable for teenage Part 1 Ellie

The game is so tediously scripted. I was watching my cousin “play” it (maybe the remake?) and he wasn’t even doing anything 90% of the time. I guess not every game can be Tetris but fuck it’s gotten so bad.

Harvey Weinstein would never have let this happen.
Hollywood needs the Harvester again.

What did you expect from a Sony game?

You may have been watching him play Uncharted, not TLoU.
TLoU has small scripted parts and QTEs here and there but 95% of the gameplay keeps the player in full control

Holding the analog stick forward as the characters have a 20 minute conversation is not "the player in full control". It's even worse than a cutscene. At least cutscenes are skippable

Druckmann REALLY wants you to like Abbey because you liked Ellie too much when Joel rescued her and you supported the selfish asshole. Shame on YOU!

It may have been the remake, not sure honestly

During that section (which was not 20 minutes long) he probably should have been exploring and searching for supplies and collectibles, not just running past everything.
"Boring to watch" is not the same as "scripted"

The Last of Us Part 1 is a "visual remake" with negligible changes to gameplay, no changes to structure and no difference in how much of it is scripted QTEs vs regular gameplay

Ah I see

People who call these games "movies" and "walking simulators" have never actually played them and are just aping what Anon Babble and Anon Babble told them. There are many games with a constant barrage of cutscenes that add up to many hours in total (Kingdom Hearts and Metal Gear Solid games come to mind), but when I'm playing The Last of Us, I'm either exploring, gathering supplies or fighting zombies or people 90% of the time. Also, all these conversations people talk about happen WHILE you're doing the exploring and collecting. You don't have to stop playing to pay attention to them.

And they're even doing her a favor by showing the uglyfied Ellie from the remaster instead of the original one that was deemed too sexy.

In the near future will AI just change the actor's face to match the original?

open spite for your audience

I call them movie games because of the content of the story itself. It's the video-game equivalent of Oscar bait or "elevated horror". TLOU is nothing but a failed movie script that got recycled into a video-game

There are many games with a constant barrage of cutscenes that add up to many hours in total (Kingdom Hearts and Metal Gear Solid games come to mind)

You can skip those cutscenes, retard. You can't skip the walking/talking segments of games like TLOU or nu-God of War. Christ, I can't believe faggots like you actually exist. How does it feel being the main reason the video-game industry is shit nowadays?

There is an even worse version of this where they put quick time events in the unskippable cut scenes and it's a couple of minutes into the sequence so when you miss it you have to watch it again

As soon as they can make a live action Little Mermaid where Ariel is white

You can't skip the walking/talking segments of games like TLOU

The only such part I can think about is near the end of TLOU 2 when Dina and Ellie are on the farm. That one is very boring to get through on replays, but any other time you're walking and talking, you can walk around and gather stuff.

People will call it gameplay because you have to hold forward and then press X to crouch through some rubble while otherwise being unable to walk faster than 1mph

walk around and gather stuff.

Id rather watch subway surfers on a second screen than collect loot in a movie game

Wow, you can gather stuff, that's crazy. What engaging, stimulating gameplay

It's not constant action, therefore it's a movie game

The absolute fucking state of Fortnite zoomers

2017 Fortnite zoomers and 2013 TLOU zoomers are apart of the same generation, dipshit. If you want to see what real games look like, play games from the early to mid 2000s

Knowing nothing about this series and the games it took the name from, is there any good reason why they didn't just switch the casting here?

she looks like a burn victim

Yeah, it is. I'm glad we agree.

Loxism.

It's literally a video-game made for women and other non-gamers. I can guarantee that TLOU is one of the first games you played

Nepotism and demoralisation

Being more expressive and able to do angry or scared faces =/= uglyfied. I prefer remake Ellie

I know this has been said a million times but I'm still in awe at how ugly this girl is. She is not "tv ugly", she is legitimately the ugliest girl I've seen that doesn't have some sort of deformity due to an illness or horrible accident. Imagine going back in time to Hollywood's golden era and pitching this goblin as your heroine in some tv show or movie, they'll kick you to the fucking curb

Nah that’s just how old games like Tetris or Mario were. Fortnite unironically carries that torch from the classic era

Her face in Part 2, and by extension the Part 1 remake, is modeled on her actress which PS3 Ellie wasn't. If you think this is ugly then you are not straight

The actress is a coward for not roiding up for the roll

I think truly ugly people are rare. As long as you're properly groomed and well-presented, the majority of people can look decent. But this poor girl rolled a -5 on the genetic lottery. And some sadistic degenerate studio executive thought it was a good idea to plaster her face across one of the biggest shows in the country, as if he was parading around the Elephant Man

even normies know how shit last of us is now. it's funny.

I can guarantee that TLOU is one of the first games you played

I was playing games before your mom had hair on her cunt, but nice try.

Humiliation ritual (for the viewer)

Wow, you played Pong and Breakout when they came out? Because those are pretty much the only games that existed in the time period you're referring to

Which is part of what made the show boring as fuck, because there’s all these small moments of character development you need to include, but it’s not happening during gameplay. So you end up spending 45 minutes watching Ellie and her gf walk through a forest talking to each other

What the fuck were they thinking with the top pair? They look nothing alike

as if he was parading around the Elephant Man

And the sick thing is they were intentionally trying to provoke backlash for engagement. They shoved this poor girl out in front of the angry mob for clicks.

Idgaf, original Ellie is way, way cuter.

The shittiness of the mob is the mob's fault.
