'The Last of Us II': PlayStation's much-anticipated survival game has fans pumped up for a dystopian nightmare
With PlayStation releasing the much-anticipated survival game, 'The Last of Us II', Twitterati went into a tizzy as a barrage of tweets followed. Opinions about the gameplay, the experience and the storyline were shared by fans who had early access to the game.
The official synopsis of 'The Last of Us II' reads: "Five years after their dangerous journey across the post-pandemic United States, Ellie and Joel have settled down in Jackson, Wyoming. Living amongst a thriving community of survivors has allowed them peace and stability, despite the constant threat of the infected and other, more desperate survivors. When a violent event disrupts that peace, Ellie embarks on a relentless journey to carry out justice and find closure. As she hunts those responsible one by one, she is confronted with the devastating physical and emotional repercussions of her actions."
"It's amazing, the game. Hours can't go fast enough to play it, I can't believe the time has come, and that beautiful history brought to us 7 years ago is finally coming back," a fan tweeted. "All the stars have aligned for me to be able to play The Last of Us Part II into the wee hours of the morning tonight. I slept until 11.45 am this morning, about to drink an energy drink. We move," another tweeted.
"I play a lot! For the next few weeks, I’ll be mainly playing The Last of Us: Part II as the first one is my fav game of all time. I do play online COD a lot, mostly black ops III, also Apex Legends," a fan wrote. "The day is finally here! I’ve supported this franchise for the last 7 years, and I'm so ready to completely immerse myself in the next chapter! The Last of Us Part II," a fan said. "And here we go... The last game I play on this PS4 before selling it. The Last of Us Part II Please don’t disappoint," remarked a fan.
"So The Last of Us Part II, thanks to my PS4 being left on overnight, is officially installed and ready to play. Gonna have breakfast, do a thing or two and then jump right in. Wish me luck, everyone. #TheLastofUsPartII," another exclaimed. "After midnight I'm going to step into a dystopian nightmare, fueled by hate and desperation, where violence and lawlessness is on the rise, following a pandemic which killed a massive amount of people. And when I get back from my walk, I'm going to play The Last of Us: Part II," a tweet read.
Here's one that sums up the excitement perfectly: "Hell yeah! Let's do this!"
