Taking a break now before work :(
 
I still think this game is a visual masterpiece. Every moment in the game is memorable location-wise. And you feel like you've taken a cross country trip through 3 seasons by the time it ends. It's just magical in how poignant the locations are. My biggest reason for not picking this up aside from the $70 tag is because while this game excels in story and location, the second game's mechanics are so far beyond the first that I think it'll be hard to go back. Unfortunately, the second game's locations were not as memorable and the story was meh.

Only played it on PS3 but the university level is my favorite. Great attention to detail and lighting, and the way it ends.

Bought this before I left to go help my parents at their house.
Start download. Leave.

*At parents house, get text message: My internet is out for a few hours.

Get home. Microwave and Stove is flashing. Go up stairs, PS5 is off. Fire it up, *rebuild database.

Finally up and running, and it only downloaded 3GB.😭

Fine, you win today. Maybe tomorrow I can finally start.

Sounds shitty, so much Time lost. Looking forward to your impressions.

The future has brought us so much convenience! I'd sure hate to be able to put a disc into a system and be playing the game right after it loaded the main menu. Those days were the WORST

Wonder how much DLC content and day one patches were on that disc! Ha! Gotcha!

Man, the lighting in this game is top notch. Definitely an improvement. Textures look much better. I'm only an hour in, but it's a looker. Hopefully it keeps the quality all the way through. Tess's face tweeks don't bother me.

Also, my cunt of a wife finally kills me in the game. It is now cannon.

It's not without it's issues still. Clothing looks like burlap, a few janky transition animation, and anything that deals with a vehicle just feels wonky.

"You're watch is broken" still hits hard. I forgot how much I love this game. Hopefully ND gives us a Part 1 prequel. They got 20 years to play with. Give us 5 year increments to show the collapse of society, and flesh out Bill, Tess, and Tommy.

Your new avatar, damnit. Urgh. The passion.

How's the gameplay, does it play differently compared to the original in any way? I read about changes in the AI, but don't have a feeling how much different it actually is.

To me, it plays the same. I'm not very far either.
 
Saved Ellie from the Fireflies performing surgery on her.

Just about wrapped up with the game. This game looks and runs fantastic on PS5. Only played the PS3 version and not the remaster so felt like a fresh experience. The obly complaint i have about the renake was the friendly ai can still act derpy at times like the original game ruining the immersion at times. It's a minor complaint so no biggie.

Never played the expansion at all so thats going to be fresh for me. Going to start tomorrow.
