New installment of these documentaries that delve into many elements of the Naughty Dog game.
Sony has released a new documentary video on The Last of Us Part II, this time under the name "Inside the Gameplay". The video of one of the most anticipated games on PS4 focuses this time on intricacies and playable elements of the title without spoilers and most importantly, with voices in Spanish on the YouTube channel of Playstation Spain. In it you can see comments on news such as crawling, dodging and jumping, among other mechanics. Comments are made by relevant development figures such as Neil Druckmann, Kurt Margenau (co-director), Halley Gross (narrative director) and Anthony Newman (co-director).
Among the elements highlighted in the video, the game's director, Druckman, points out the following: "The game has to immerse you in the world, allow you to perform interesting actions that allow you to survive the infected, people or the environment itself. But Above all, The Last of Us Part II has to put you in the shoes of Ellie, that you feel what she feels. The more we achieve it, the more the emotional aspects of the story catch us, something that only video games achieve. "
Ellie's greatest agility
During the video broadcast they also focus on Ellie's playable quirks, as well as the fact that she has to constantly make difficult decisions and face various threats. In the merely playable, it stands out as survival is a key element for both the story and the game itself: to feel like you can survive by bare bones and to exploit the fact that Ellie is not as strong as Joel but more agile , so the challenges before stronger people than us have to be developed differently than what we saw in the first installment.
On the ability to crawl, for Margenau it is a relevant advance because it allows "to lie on the ground, something that in real life you could do, and that allows us to access weapons, collection elements and objects, allowing playable novelties from this mechanic. "
All this and much more can be seen in the video that heads this article. The Last of Us Part II comes out next June, day 17, exclusively for Playstation 4.
