A Plague Tale: Innocence

Felt weird playing this without having played The Last of Us, while knowing that in terms of gameplay (and even story to an extent) this game cribs heavily from TLoU

I still enjoyed it and would play the sequel though, the setting is original enough to keep my interest and the graphics and polish are very impressive for such a small studio

Never thought hitting the pope in the head with a slingshot would make for a terrible boss battle

but here we are

Starts off really good, loved the first few hours with that grim af atmosphere but after a while it gets really dumb and annoying

Surprised to see the lukewarm response here. I think the game is pretty stellar throughout. The in-game mechanics aren't the most deep thing ever but they are certainly above average in terms of the genre, and the characters/setting are super great. Not to mention just how incredible the visual design is. Thought this was a pretty incredible experience, especially for what was at the time a budget title.

So it really just ends like that huh? That’s ok I guess, good thing I already know there’s a sequel lol
