2HBoricua The Last of Us Remastered Review

This game’s story, world building, and characters are phenomenal. The theme of what wouldn’t you be willing to sacrifice to save someone you love is a powerful theme. The game has good combat combined with scavenging and combining mechanics that make for fun gameplay. I would have given this game a 10 if it wasn’t for the fact that 2/3 of the way through the game I was ready for it to be over. This isn’t because of story pacing, it’s because combat encounters began to feel like I was doing the same thing over and over and felt like they were taking too long. I think it felt like that because it was pretty difficult to do something other than stealth and not use up most of your resources while doing it. So even though I was combining resources to make items that could change my combat gameplay loop, I was having to save them for boss fights and scripted moments where I would get attacked by large groups of enemies. That is the only dark spot that tarnishes my memory an otherwise nearly perfect game.
