I've played up to the part where Seattle Day 1 starts.
I'm enjoying playing, but the story hasn't really made me invested yet, which the first one did right away. --- Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to azuarc, the winner of the Game of the Decade II guru contest. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm up to the end of Seattle Day 2. Enjoying the gameplay (though, Survivor mode is making me hate dogs), but the plot is still kinda eh. It looks like it's building up to something though. Favourite part so far is the

agreed with the last two posts. I'm a bit further than FAH.
so far it's got a bit of that Uncharted 4 problem in that it's just another story in an existing Naughty Dog universe with characters we (theoretically should) have a strong emotional connection with, but it doesn't do anything more. except the problem in UC4 is that the story they told had already been told in an Uncharted game, where as this one is just slowly following up on the last game in very predictable ways. --- ICON: Kiwami means extreme. ...

That's what I was afraid of, that it'd just be another predictable Uncharted story but with zombies.

man, I'm so surprised at how straightforward and trite this game is. it's very good moment-to-moment - the performances carry a lot of weight, and I love the combat design - but when I take a step back and look at all this is building to I keep thinking, "there's no there there."
the smartest thing this game does is what happens at the end of the prologue because it's something you want to do early so you can tell your own story. and then instead of moving on, the story is suffocated by the weight of the past for hours while having exactly one thing to say about the world. it's so slight! --- ICON: Kiwami means extreme. ...

i think this game is what i thought the first one was going to be. it feels way more like a dark uncharted than part one did

I'm just past the aquarium and, uh... okay, I guess we're doing this now. Man, this game just keeps going and going and going, huh?

I'll wait till the credits role before making a final judgement, as it's entirely possible they're gonna do some amazing bait and switch or just stick the landing so well that it's fine or something, but so far there's just this huge disconnect between the gameplay and the cutscenes that feels like a huge missed opportunity to hold a mirror up to the player. --- Still the number one reason for the success of the Internet.

Just played through what I had to in NG+ to finish my upgrades and this game is super annoying to replay. So many unskippable slow and boring parts.

I just beat it. It's fantastic. I love it.
I will keep all spoilers to myself, but I will say one thing. I stayed completely away from any discussion of the game AT ALL before finishing it. I didn't read the leaks, I didn't read anyone's complaints or compliments, I didn't read reviews... nothing. I did read all that AFTER beating the game. I have not seen a single complaint against the game's themes or exploration of issues that seemed entirely fair. Some I can understand, but still strongly disagree with. Every societal issue the game decided to tackle (including Biggest issue with the game was that the pace was slowed down way too much by repeated sections of buildings to scavenge. If you don't care to be as thorough as I was in looking for supplies / collectibles / workbenches / manuals / etc, that is probably less of an issue for you. --- Got a brand new blues that I can't explain ...

I actually loved that whole section where you are bouncing from house to house etc I think my favorite parts of the game are when you just start running. I've been trying not to kill human enemies as much as possible and it's made the game that much better. I love how you can just run --- Tribe Time! ... Copied to Clipboard!

OK this second flashback had a cool thing pezzicle posted... Ya day 2 has some dope sections, that one included I tried to be stealthy. I have that MGS mindset where I lose "points" for being seen, even though I know there's really no such thing here. One of them took me a few tries to get through. Good sequences. Dogs are annoying.

Day 2 was a lot better than day 1, which dragged on for too long imo.
I enjoyed the flashbacks, but the pacing was off in the first one. I don't think I prefer storytelling through flashbacks, but the chemistry between the characters are better in those than present, so that's something. --- Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to azuarc, the winner of the Game of the Decade II guru contest. ...
