What games are you playing currently?

I've been playing The Last Of Us 2 all morning. I'm now five hours into the game and so far I'm absolutely loving it.
 
Got that game just now. Can’t wait to play as Joel and kick some zombie ass later on.
You're going to be rather disappointed then.
But does the 2nd one give you a choice of Joel or Ellie?
No.
They've been pretty clear in all of the promotional material that this is Ellie's story, not Joel's and that you spend the majority of the game playing as Ellie.
I've played about 2 or 3 hours so far, and you do play as Joel for a few minutes during the opening, but other than that it's been all Ellie and a new character. If what it looked like happened where I left off, then I think there's a chance that will be it for Joel, outside of flashbacks.

I know very well that you play as Ellie. I was just having a little fun.
Surprised that you would play this game. Seems that it might be too rough for you

Well I hope it's more fun then the 1st one

Not at all, I'm loving it so far, and the first game is one of my all time favorite games ever.
I do prefer lighter stuff, but there are still a few dark things, like the TLOU franchise, The 100, The Walking Dead, and the RDM Battlestar Galactica that I still love.
 
Watching the Walking Dead has sort have ruined this for me as I can see everything coming. It’s got my mind set to think Of depressing stories. :)
 
I platinumed Assassin's Creed Odyssey and now I'm working on the DLC (I finished the Tales From Greece add on, but it glitched and I can't fight either of the two bounties on it). I'm hoping I can have this done before Ghost of Tsushima next month :)

I'm tempted to try The Last of Us AGAIN (this would be my fourth attempt). Don't get me wrong, I love Naughty Dog's games, but I CAN NOT get into either this game or Uncharted 4 (and I played the shit out of Uncharteds 1-3)
 
I'm the opposite I'm enjoying Uncharted 4 and The Lost Legacy.

I just can't get into TLOU and don't want the sequel. The only reason I have the game is it was dirt cheap in a sale and curiosity got the better of me.

I loved Uncharted 4, and just replayed the first three via the Collection they released for free recently. If there's one thing that I didn't like about the 4th game was the treasure collecting. In the first 3 games, it felt fine. But in the 4th one, given that everything else had evolved with the gameplay, it felt as though there should have been a bit more to it. As it was, it felt more like a relic (haha, there's a pun) of the past in terms of gameplay.

I loved it to, and I've always been a little confused why so many people didn't. I never really concerned myself with the treasures, I'd look around and get whatever I saw, but didn't spend hours trying to get everything.

I loved the attention to detail in the 4th game. Little things like the jeep physics, how the winch could be used to solve puzzles, and how the climbing had been improved, but the one thing that was most improved was the stealth. Stealth in the earlier games were hit and miss and seemed to rely more on luck. If there's one thing I'd love to see more of, it's more of the open levels. Most of the game seemed to fall back on linear corridors and was best when they opened it up in the driving and boating sequences which is where it really let you explore. There were even spots that weren't mandatory to visit when trying to find the towers.
 
Yeah, those parts were pretty great.
I read an interview with Neil Druckman, who is one of the main creators at Naughty Dog, and he admitted he hasn't decided what they're going to do next. I'm hoping they'll go back to Jak & Daxter, but I also wouldn't be against a new Uncharted game.
