    I’ll take your word for it but I never played it myself since I’m not really into the whole survival genre 🤷

      If you like story driven games, it’s pretty good, if you look for good gameplay, this is not it.

      Oh my god you’re missing it. It isn’t a survival game. It is a masterpiece of story telling.

      I haven’t played it since the month it was released, but thinking about it still makes the hairs on my arms stand up. Within 5 minutes of playing the game I was on an emotional rollercoaster. It might be the only game I ever played that hit me that hard, with Red Dead 2 trailing it by a mile despite being the best game I’ve played in years.

      You are cheating yourself if you never play it. I do not like survival games either, at all. Not even a little bit. The Last of Us might be the greatest game ever made.

        It’s like you get to play the main character in a movie - a really good movie. I would agree, it’s one of the best games ever!

      The Last of Us is as much of a survival game as Elden Ring is a toddler-level Peppa Pig clone. You are crazy to pass from playing TLoU it is a fucking magnum opus chefs kiss of a video game.
