Initially planned for a February 2020 release, the highly anticipated title from Naughty Dog, The Last of Us Part II, has been pushed back a few months. Neil Druckmann, the game's director, made the official announcement via a post on PlayStation Blog today.

"It was during the last few weeks, as we were closing out sections of the game, that we realized we simply didn’t have enough time to bring the entire game up to a level of polish we would call Naughty Dog quality," writes Druckmann. "At this point we were faced with two options: compromise parts of the game or get more time. We went with the latter, and this new release date allows us to finish everything to our level of satisfaction while also reducing stress on the team."

The new release date for The Last of Us Part II is May 29, 2020. You can read Neil Druckmann's full blog post in the source below.

I loved the first one but jesus I do not care for part 2 since it looks like a sjw fest. The woke of us

Half of this thread reads to me something like...

DAE gay character bad? True gamers rise up to own the lib SJWs

...though can I say I'm really all that surprised at that kind of reaction?

(...wait, wasn't she lesbian in the DLC for the first one already?)

Well, at least they're not pulling an Anthem.

I'm asking because he was being a smartass, calling me out just because I have no interest in the game. Oh big whoop, that's not my problem.

DANTENDO is a piece of shit, acting like he knows everything.

Good riddance

I can never tell if you're shit posting or you accidentally commented on the wrong thread.

No chance as they kno ps4 gamers would never buy a naughty dog game ever again-it's just a polish job nothing else

Actually you're wrong and he's right. Games being delayed because of PS5. It's a launch title for the PS5. You're also wrong about people not buying a naughty dog game again.

I wouldn't call him that, he's just a conceited jerk.

You just need to zip it and stop your incessant bitching about what I say. You're not a mod, so back off.

You post a lot of negative stuff mate and you even admitted something along those lines a week or so ago - games are for enjoyment and hearing people constantly bitch about stuff is like cancer - people can slag things off but lot time few users here just post it's like shit game or who cares about this shit with no real reason why - people should be more constructive in ther criticism of a game

What's there to be constructive about? I don't own a PS4, I have a gaming PC and a Switch, I was never interested in this game or the series, and if you can't accept that fact, that's not my problem. End of story.

Cant you see why people get pissed off as you dont even hav a ps4 so why comment on a ps4 game

Did I stutter? Okay let me just get in my nonexistent time machine, go back further into the thread and delete the posts, just for you. Sound good? There's no rule against saying one has no interest in a game, even if said person has no related console. So yeah, back off, I don't need your backseat moderating BS. I don't like these games, I don't have a PS4, and you're just going to have to accept the fact I have a different opinion, that's not my concern. Deal with it.

I'm not trying to moderate youl find out one day a lot of people just don't like hearing so much negativity

How it is negative to express not liking a game? Holy hell, I say "not interested" and you get your panties in a twist? Cry me a fucking river.


Person A: I'm not interested in X game
Person B: *Gasp* You're being negative, begone from this thread at once!!
Person A: But I'm not interested, since when is that a crime punishable by death?
Person B: Because I said so, now get out!

Yeah, that about sums up your bullshit.

As said before be more specific why - then mayb they'd be a constructive debate about the game - if a 100 people in this thread just said not interested do you really think thts worth reading

You don't have to read every comment. I don't like the genre, I don't like the characters, I don't like survival games, or horror games, or any of that. There, is that better? Does that placate your needs to know why I'm being "negative" about a game? And by the way, not liking a game is not being negative, nor should I have to provide critique, and if you can't handle it, that's not my fucking problem. Stop hounding me already and drop it

Not necessarily, they hinted it in the DLC, but they didn't blatantly show it, just suggesting at most iirc

The Wikipedia page for the DLC has a screenshot of Ellie and Riley kissing. I haven't played it myself but I'm pretty sure it was already a thing.

And if they had already kissed before, what even is the outrage about?
