YOU PC BRO?!

In my opinion the reason this was made was to sell parts 1&2 on PC. It kind of makes sense. It would be a lot of work to port both to pc as the original game uses a muuuch older version of the game engine having been initially developed for the PS3. Much easier to remake part 1 in the same engine iteration as part 2 then port both to PC at the same time.

i don't drink coffee and i've already bought the game twice. this has nice graphics to put it inline with Part 2 but i don't see why it's £80. maybe if you had never played the games before it makes sense but even at that... £80 for a new game. that's ridiculous. I refuse to pay any more than £60 for a brand new game. £80 for a remaster is so bad.
makes sense.
part 1 will be on PS5 and PC then we'll get part 2 on PS5 and they'll bring it to PC as well.

Speaking of this game's editions...seems like people have even been faking criticisms over it, lmao.
Seems like it's the size we were to expect...there was some footage and videos saying how everything was small as hell
Th way this IP brings out the worst in people will never not be hilarious.

I thought it was because of the TV show bringing in new people to the franchise. They might want to go and play the game that started it all. I did think the same for the Uncharted film as well but that ship has well and truly sailed when it comes to the PC version. WTF is going on with it for PC? I'm quietly hoping they are taking all these extra months because they are porting Uncharted 1-3 as well for a mega PC bundle.

Im so happy ND decided not to release this in my region. Thanks bros. Appreciate it. Two thumbs up.

Yup. This looks incredible. I'd pay some good bucks for it but yeah....they clearly underestimated demand for this.
It sold out quickly and then had to produce more. (first time due to bots...that's why having this on PS Direct this time will be better hopefully)

Just saw DFs video about the game. Holy shit, the difference is night and day. Looks absolutely amazing. The character models in particular are very impressive, but the lighting, shadows and textures are equally impressive. And on top of that, you get Dualsense and 3D audio. Very tempted to jump in but I'm still holding out for a double pack for 1 & 2.

Yeah...is this the first decent 3D audio implementation? I may try it as well.

Demon's Souls and Returnal had very good 3D audio implementation.

I think Sony does stuff through partners in my region rather than direct sales. None of their partners had this edition up for sale. Very likely due to them underestimating demand. Would've sat nicely with my PS3 Joel Edition but ah well..

Returnal's 3D audio implementation is mighty impressive so there are already instances that are far above average.

Ill buy it at gamestop for 39.99 next year.
The visual upgrades look nice, but the experience is still pretty fresh for me

I am hesitant to buy this Digital or wait to go to the store and get it. The game is worth it for its content, I never cared for factions. Triple dipping I got the remaster for free when i bought my PS4.
Oh let's wait for REsident Evil 4 Remake discount since i already own the game.

Even though I disagree with it, this is probably my favorite thread title in the past few years. And well done OP.

When I first played TLOU, it didn't initially grab me as I was expecting it to (my expectations coming from Uncharted — LOVE Uncharted) but on a later play-through I was enjoying it a lot more and only stopped due to the remake's announcement. So I was pretty much getting it regardless.
They weren't targeting people like us with the remake who have already played it (of-course, they have no reason to prevent us from double-dipping either!). The show is most likely the reason this exists and the time they had to spend on it was probably dictated by that.

"You see, we didnt add dodge because it wouldn't feel right with Clickers"
"But why not making ineffective against Clickers only, but you could use it against humans?"

The AI was a huge joke, I read they fixed that, I'd believe that when I see actual gameplay.

It isn’t all that hard but I remember not clicking with it and did struggle. I had finished Nightmare mode in The Evil Within just before and I think I was just burned out. Maybe I’ll try Survivor this time. Maybe.

I think hard is the way to go since it adds a lot to the experience and normal is to easy.
Permadeath on grounded is just for fun after the initial playthrough to feed me some adrenaline.

£70 for a remake.

I would never have noticed that detail.

Gameplay is so much better. Smoother, running and now you can throw a bottle without stopping like in Part 1.
Sprinting is better too and so is overall gunplay.
Top quality remake

I think now with the difficulty trophies gone, there is no reason not to play it on CUSTOM mode all the way.
Grounded is great for most parameters but then my aim is shit so I drop resources to hard (more than enough in P2) or even medium.
That just gives you way more ammo, so you don't feel that pressure to stealth through most of encounters and reload checkpoints whenever you miss a shot. It's still difficult but with more winging it through firefights = more fun imo.
Another thing I do is drop companion AI to medium/lite. Makes them more active and aggressive in combat since on grounded they're just useless most of the time (at least in P2) as the game expects you to do most of the work.
I think it makes the game feel more realistic, to miss their presence when you're on your own.

I don't even know what can be customized in detail but you are right that hard or grounded are not perfect when it comes to specific settings. Can't wait to tailor the experience to my needs.
It's a mixed bag in terms of ammunition. On the one hand, it's extremely satisfying when ammo is incredibly limited and you really make "every shot count". Gives me some dystopian lone survivor feelings. On the other hand you can fuck up quite fast by just missing one or two shots which is not unlikely.
Hard, overall makes you think about encounters and resources all together. Keeping it, spending it wisely. The game gains so much compared to normal difficulty. Grounded however can be devastating.
Shooting and aiming also felt great in the original. They made a huge step forward compared to Uncharted 3 in that regard. It is just natural that you want to spend some ammo.
