The Last Poster Wins [v30]

[Neo Emolga]

It's crazy how it's still really hard to get a hold of a PS5, though. :P

Meanwhile, I'm still here with a PS3. Still works perfectly fine, though the only game I've played on it recently was revisiting The Last of Us. Yeah... that's one of those games that would have been better without a sequel.

Man I loved that game. Never again will I play that on the hardest difficulty. That was beyond crazy. I need to go back to it myself xD.

It's tough enough on Normal. Heck, it's pretty rare I will try a game on its hardest difficulty, and I usually only do that if it's a game I know and love very well and I feel confident I can handle it. But yeah, usually difficulty modifications really only change the numbers. When they make enemies bullet sponges and make you die in one or two hits, eh, I don't bother with those.

Just Last of Us on the hardest difficulty. Resources are scarce as they would be in that kind of world. Making things like first aid and ammo hard to come by. No ability to listen to your surroundings like in easier modes. So just listening and watching. So using your environment helps. But those Clickers just made things tough not being able to easily just go and shiv.

Wouldn't blame you there Noble. A new laptop/computer is always nice once the old one starts to fade and die out.

Clickers are just frustrating for the fact that it's an instant death if they even come close. There's virtually nothing you can do when realistically, you should be able to strike back by kicking, punching, dodging, holding it back like the NPCs do, or quickly moving in to pull off a quick shot. At a bare minimum, put in a quick-time event to quickly react to the attack before they bite you on the neck. But nope, Shiv Master is really your only defense against those fatal attacks. That's what really makes what would otherwise be a normal enemy be so intimidating.

Also, hilariously enough, I find the earlier stages of The Last of Us much harder than the later stages where you've got more weapons and tools to work with. Except for the hospital at the end. You get flanked once and you're toast. You alert two guys and one has an assault rifle and you're toast. Run out of ammo and you're toast. :P

Yeah definitely. This one still works and I've limped it along for quite a while, but she's definitely showing her age. I opened Photoshop the other day and it was saying my graphics card is out of date so that's no bueno haha.
