Is it true?Is this the peak of storytelling?

>>640244223I didn't say it was 'good writing,' I said it was well-written for what it is. It's why I bought up Predator in comparison. For a dumb 80s Arnold Schwarzenegger movie where Arnie fights a space alien it's way better and more well-written/directed than it has any right to be. But it's still a dumb 80s movie where Arnold takes off his shirt, covers himself head-to-toe in mud and then has a fist fight with a big guy in an alien costume. You were comparing it to Dan Brown novels, which are really quite awful by the standards of... well basic fucking English. The dude mixes metaphors, badly, every other sentence. They're truly rubbish bits of work no matter how you look at them. I don't like Last of Us that much and I don't really defend it all that much but comparing them to Dan Brown's work is a step too far.

>>640244736Guys, this isn't funny anymore. Please stop sexualizing Sarah, my niece is around her age now and I really don't need your sickening fetish shoved down my throat anymore.

nolol

what exactly did tlou do that other games did not? there's absolutely nothing fresh about it. even fucking telltale walking dead was better story wise and it came out before.

>>640241932Yes. And because it's made big money, and promoting the game is cross promotion to the TV series.

>>640245338Claiming the Kain series have good story is just as much of a Reddit opinion as claming TLOU has a good story.

>>640243047>Imagine if any other medium worked like this.They do though, you used movies as an example but have you ever heard of "Oscar Bait" and I'm also sure book have the same kind of elitist navel gazing shit. Entertainment media has ALWAYS had an issue with sucking off artsy fartsy shit that's normalfag friendly the kind of shit that "elevates the medium"

>>640243047You say this when movies like Schindler's list are considered some of the best movies of all time and are untouched by criticism. The movie scene is EXACTLY the same, only difference is that there's a lot more movies out there so it's not as noticeable.
