Why you begin a five-star review of potential criticisms? Simply because I have nothing, absolutely nothing wrong with the Game and sound pure adulation desolate. Or should I have a review with: This is the best game I have ever gambled! begin? Especially when it is sincere, as opposed to: Honey, I've never eaten more delicious canned ravioli?
Well, there are a small thing that bothered me about this game: The certainty that nothing better can meet. The Last of Us is the ultimate Adventure / Survival / Zombie / action game for snobby duration complainers like me. Or rather: Former permanent whiners because The Last of Us has simply left me speechless, and that's at a Liver (or is the Quasselstripper?) Like me firstly a boon to humanity and secondly, a magnificent feat about as if David Copperfield can vanish simultaneously with the moon, the sun, the stars and Justin Bieber, the Statue of Liberty.
Let (Ha! As if anyone reading this review!) Run me why The Last of Us is so outstanding. I'm not an avid gamer and zocke average maybe one or two games a year, throughout Adventures and strategy games (Anno, Age Of Empires, Mensch_ * In do not be angry, ballots, etc.). I am interested in neither technical details such as fps (what does that really mean? Curses per second? I can not make up to five leads me into temptation!), Yet seductive Cover with scantily clad ladies hornyzontalen industry. I do not care if a game to Buxtehude Award for educationally valuable content (inner values are more important than beauty, rich are evil, arms are noble, let us all have fond, schleimsülzrhabarber) won or received an award for the best cellophane has.
It is crucial for me if I start a game of pulling away under the spell or I'm already getting the intro like to sort the plates in the dishwasher on the size and degree of soiling. The Last of Us grabbed me from the first second away and never let go. Already the intro is dramatic and pops one without warning so unexpected turn in front of the bib, that one should not plan anything for the next evening. I would have even whizzing my own wedding (which is of course a joke! In women I work as attractive as plague, cholera and Heintjes Best-Of album together). The next working days were hard because I appeared sleepy at work. I made an imaginary cold responsible I could say yes bad that I still had a couple of Zombies mash the pear. Incidentally, I was the feigned cough hoarse, but only incidentally, to warn any copyists my genius Ausredekunst.
Yes, I was every evening Joel, and, although he is not a young, super attractive all-rounder, the. Done with a casual spell on the lip a villain after another (you can only find in the movies or in election commercials) Joel is not a man of many words, a rather practical person (which is probably the better way in case of zombifizierten Post Apocalypse, trying to thrash out problems in a bowl green tea as not real I'm sorry, dear '68 Social Romantics), rough (the h was last spotted in the spelling reform) and especially cynical. His partner (in work, not in the sense ROMCOM-) Tess has grown by the same shock and me at once to the dark heart. I like women who shoot before they give you a basket. And then there's Ellie, who is only 14 years old, but has learned to survive in this world. Not an easy task, since the infected almost are the lesser evil. Worse are the other survivors. The infected are predictable but which non-infected people can be trusted? Should you ever trust anyone?
What makes The Last of Us unique is primarily the story. Of course there are genre-typical elements, so fights. But make more the decorative accessory of overwhelming emotional story, divided into four aligned to the seasons acts. The struggles against Infected or other survivor (this is equal to more) are not the focus, but are necessary in order to advance the story. A story that is told to eons exciting and rousing as in most films. You have the developers Naughty Dog to say a huge compliment: Full eye and ohrenscheinlich a lot of people have given an incredible amount of effort to polish a masterpiece, instead of throwing a Hau zombies-Klopper without much fuss on the market.
Going back to my headline: Emotionally charged the game thanks to the magnificent history that is no hingeschluderte alibi dummy for Sinnfreies Gekloppe. Very, very, very far from it! I am passionate films gazers, as well reader, and may my worst nightmare, namely an election victory of the Greens, a reality, if I lie: I have rarely seen or read a so precise sophisticated, emotionally stirring, thrilling, compelling story! I do not want to dwell on, as otherwise the risk of Spoilerns would be too great, so just as much: In the course of many hours of play wait kinds of surprises and unexpected twists. Two or three times I found myself, as I almost scared sat watching television and thought completely floored me: Wow! That is impossible! That's about as if James Bond will be shot by the bad guy and not get up. Shortly thereafter, I thought to myself by the way: How can we actually even catch at something?
Seriously: You should not eat anything in The Last of Us, because sometimes a jaw open to surprise. This is possible, of course, only on the basis of successful characterizations. While an example in the Resident Evil movies does not matter who is when bitten the guy off, grow a the characters in The Last of Us immediately to my heart, even the minor characters (do not worry: Funny sidekicks that only nerves are We do not!), no matter if disposed halfway friendly or hostile. What's more, Joel and Ellie go through each of character development, which of course I do not want spoilers. They mature in comprehensible ways, what seems self-evident especially with a teenager like Ellie. And that's another one of those points where the details for a superior gaming experience worry. One can very well watch as Ellie Joel opposite initially reluctant and almost acted a little shy, both in choice of words, and in their body language and how it is becoming more familiar to her. Here, the game does not choose the easy route through soap opera dialogue, but transports this familiarity and subtle means of small words, gestures or looks.
Speaking of details: The Last of Us is the game of the details, as it were the antithesis of the Transformerismus BUMMKAWUMMKRACH. I have the game now through gambled several times (True, I have no girlfriend! How did you guess anyway?) And am always met with little details that I had previously overlooked. Here only one of them: At one point Ellie gathers a toy figure on but only when not Joel hinguckt. You simply only runs on the fastest way through the game, you neglected many such lovingly designed details that affect the game in any way, but underscore the dense atmosphere in addition.
Oh yes, the atmosphere if you love horror and science fiction movies, you will be surprised by the graphics. While there are gloomy Settings in sparsely illuminated (electricity is in short supply, the energy turnaround was probably not so successful) cellars or underground wells, but a large part of the Games will take place in broad daylight, often draws a bizarre landscape: clog Rusted car the streets, the asphalt is torn, houses have collapsed, entire neighborhoods are under water, nightly street lighting is something of an early 21st century and yet: In the midst of horror and decay sprouting nature and creates an eerily beautiful picture. Slowly, but surely, nature takes back what her man has snatched. Ever loads the graphic to linger and marvel. When the figure of Joel enjoys the evening twilight and the last rays the decaying city illuminates like a painting, a minute you can ever so bring just to enjoy the scenery, although of course you know that nearly all of the inhabitants of the City are dead as the liberal idea in Germany or walk around in a state reminiscent of participants at folk music festivals.
Similarly bizarre as the graphic itself presents the vanguard of the antagonists. Very nicely implemented the idea of different stages of infection. Freshly Infected are still more apathetic, more infected act like those zombies that you know from movies like Resident Evil or 28 Days Later. Slower but more frightening are the Clicker Infected whose head is completely overgrown by fungus and the like bats at Echo outcast click sounds are based. These click sounds make it able to create simple to locate acoustic, on the other hand gives a damn creepy the noise (Tip: Be sure to play with high-quality headphones and keep ready spare underwear!). The final stage of the infection are the bloater, where nothing is reminiscent of people and of whom one should be careful, because they tear one not the ass, for it prefers the gum line. Well, strictly speaking, I am an Austrian, so I apologize for the German thoroughness and the hand for precision not always comply not provide the Bloater the final stage. This can be admired in damp, dark walls, all the way to mushroom style. Disgusting and scary but also fascinating. Maybe it's just me. I'll ask my therapist once he has recovered from our last session and health again.
Absurd as it may sound: The Last of Us is struggling from a many a smile. Most Ellies is sassy mouth of reason. At this point you have to ask the German synchronization before the virtual curtain: I find the German version even better than the much-vaunted English. Especially Ellies dubbing voice fits perfectly with the figure shown. You understand me wrong: Ashley Johnson embodies (literally the game has been created using motion capture) Ellie just great. Just with her voice I was not warm as I find them to grow up. That does not mean much: I found Tom Green's Freddy Got Fingered funny.
To top it all around successful game is the final. No, this is not gespoilert! Therefore, only this: The end leaves a thoughtful and forces you to ask uncomfortable questions. If it needed any further proof to see in The Last of Us is a masterpiece, here it is: A computer game captivates long after the credits roll, the thoughts of the player. A computer game!
Highlighting specifically I still have the soundtrack of each of humor (hectic, then playfully melancholic in adrenalin geschwängerten situations) adapts perfectly. Gustavo Santaolalla is the virtuoso, and I can buy (we leave the moral cudgel packed: please buy, not download anywhere First, it has earned the artist and secondly, such art is created only if there are enough people who they honor!. Spare me! Anyone who performs with your excuses to a console by several hundred euros and games to around 50 or 60 euros each, can also shell out a tenner for the soundtrack. Uff, chief Gene Simmons Tongue spoke) recommend the soundtrack would highly ,
Did I forget something? I could rave about side side of this game, which was the absolute perfect match experience for me. A little bit, I hope for a second part, even if it is probably impossible to come close to the magnificent first part can. A film is reportedly being planned. Warning: Paul WS Anderson direct the film, which would probably mean necessarily that Milla Jovovich played the 14-year-old Ellie, is something very, very terrible will happen. I'm going to buy any movie ticket it.
Actually, I just wanted to say that The Last of Us is my favorite game and I can recommend it to anyone. But I've read that Amazon only reviews are approved by the length of a Doors song lyrics. Is that really true? We'll find out!
PS: This is not a Verified, because I wanted to play this game as quickly as possible and it is therefore purchased in retail stores have. Sorry, Amazon! I hope you can forgive me again!
PS II: Do you really have nothing better to do than to waste a quarter of an hour of your life to read a stupid review? I regret you!
