    To be honest, you shouldn't be allowed to "review" unless you played it. I get that people are still having issues but I didn't have any, at all. Same with steam reviews, most negative ones are people that played less than 3 hours. Wait for the patches guys.

    The remake is astounding with new Gui, new models, reworked environments. I just hope ND tank the negativity until the game is

    amazing game play and storyline, graphics are absolutely great with nice next gen reflections and textures,
    the things that spoil the experience is the performance, I have ASUS ROG SE with RTX 3080Ti, and experienced long time shader cashing, and low FPS that reached 30s in many places although I lowered the graphics quality, what you must do is lowering the following

    the things that spoil the experience is the performance, I have ASUS ROG SE with RTX 3080Ti, and experienced long time shader cashing, and low FPS that reached 30s in many places although I lowered the graphics quality,
    what you must do is lowering the following settings,
    - wait for shaders cashing to finish
    - shadows resolution
    - lower reflections resolution-
    - turn off real time reflections
    - use DLSS mode
    - your VRAM must have free space don’t fill it up with high settings
    - lower the texture but don’t ruin your visuals
    I will give it 8 out of 10 expecting to get performance patch soon.

    The game is great and! very fun. The improvement over the PS3 version is tremendous. I played it on a 6700k and GTX 1070 both OCed with 16GB of system RAM.
    Textures looks great in this game. I had to reduce my Vram usage before launching. Very impressive audio especially if you optimize the in-game surround sound settings. I have never ever heard such

    Very impressive audio especially if you optimize the in-game surround sound settings. I have never ever heard such accurate audio when playing a game or movie in 5.1. The angles and timing were perfect and so was the audio is very realistic.
    I love the difficulty settings you can now customize it. You can make the enemy AI smart and aggressive, without turning your allies' AI completely dumb and useless. You can also have those settings without making it impossible to find items. People keep complaining about crashing I played the entire game without a crash. I did noticed bugs once I started playing Left Behind, the items you would collect would just randomly not be collected.

    This game is a masterpiece, that's why I put it a 10. I don't have a PS5, and PC is the only way I can play The Last Of Us Part 1. Even though its optimization on PC is terrible, the story, gameplay and graphics on high settings are good. But I understand people who put 0, because company that ported this game on PC must be terminated for what they've done.

My 8GB Vram Rtx 2080 is perfectly capable of running this game with most settings maxed out plus some ultra settings indeed. Graphics engine is demanding but the game is playable and stable.

I loved the dialog and was really into it. Feel so real that everything looks unclear - in a surprising way.

    The graphics are amazing. I was getting impressed almost every time, due to the art direction in the streets or the expressions. Water, grass, sky, and textures, and more aligned with the audio design, adding a lot to the atmosphere factor.

    The gameplay could be a little better since the dual sense controller's sensitivity was a little slow. But I liked the challenge overall since you must learn how to be stealthy to mitigate ammo.

    Anyway, I highly recommend it. But be aware. The PC port is not good right now. I did not consider it in that score, which would reduce it significantly.

    This game had one of the worst PC releases of all time, but after months and countless of patches, it actually works well now. It's a shame that they released this game like that, but overall it is very good game and solid remake. It doesn't add anything new (some minor things), but it's just overall best version of this game and now on PC. It's great!

    That said, the situation today is quite different, the game has received several fixes and currently has no problems. I give it a 9 only because Part 2 exists which as far as I'm concerned is superior in everything. If you haven't played it, get it back, whether it's ps5 or pc, The last of us part 1 is a masterpiece.

It took "only" 10 years for the game, having undergone a series of improvements and having passed the way from a game of "format 2013" to the version of the sample "Part I", reached the hands of PC-boyars on the most orthodox platform.
    It would seem that how can a seasoned player be surprised by a trivial plot format "journey in a post-apocalyptic world from point A to point B"? As it turns out, it can and how. The story told in "One of Us. Part I," although first told 10 years ago, is still capable of touching, surprising, giving hope and telling one of the best video game stories in 2023.
    The development of the relationships between the main characters is interesting to watch, the secondary characters are well-discovered and their story is interestingly presented. The visuals of the game in 2013 were pretty good even for 2023, but in the "Part I" version, after the introduction of modern graphics technology in general is fire.
    Separately, I want to draw attention to the concept of the "green apocalypse", when the nature begins to regain its previously lost ground on the ruins of human civilization - it's very aesthetic in itself, and the game is also very stylishly depicted.
    I also want to note the attention to the approach in the design of the locations - if you went into an abandoned apartment, the setting, the interior, the small details of design, etc. - Everything literally immerses you in the atmosphere of the game.
    Great game lore, which is conveyed through the dialogues of the characters, the environment around, notes, and the overall story - can not leave anyone indifferent.
    If you, like me, love a heartwarming story, well-described characters, post-apocalyptic atmosphere, and an interesting world, then I can congratulate you - this game will be a godsend.

    "You can't escape or hide from the past. It will catch up with you anyway, because it's part of you..." (с)

    PS: The game has been run with Intel® Core™ i9-10900F, 32Gb DDR4, GeForce RTX 4080 16GB VENTUS 3X OC, SSD, so I have no complaints about the optimization.

My feeling is that the video settings is a bit too detailed and complicated, and most of all the presets are a bit overstated. Indeed it feels bad if you have a 3070 RTX laptop with 8gb where most of the games play well on high/ultra, but TLOU requires you to put tweak all down to medium to get a playable experience. And some details aside, it still looks and feels pretty good. I guess the optimization of all game should think more about running fluidly on mid-range machines than to get all the possible visual thrills at 4090. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 8.5/10.

    First of all, I played in patch 1.10, and now it seems ok, I didn't see any major bug and my performance was ok on a RX 580, not great, not bad.

    The Last of Us is a linear game similar to Uncharted but the difference is here we are way more focused on stealth and survival aspects.

    Story 8.5/10 - The game setting is an apocalyptic pandemic world where a fungus pretty much transforms people into zombies that infect people by biting them. 60% of the world's population died because of that and the rest becomes assh0l3s to survive, it is like a free for all in an abandoned world.

    I like how the places we get through develop this world, we have many records telling what happened with the world, the letters of "survivors" and the places we go really show a true post-apocalyptic world with hundreds of broken empty buildings, hundreds of cars broken down and rusted, also there are many sprayed graffiti sayings things in houses front like: "stay away, I have a weapon and I'm gonna shot you".

    Now, the main story, we follow Joel, a smuggler that lost his daughter when the pandemic apocalyptic began. He works with his partner Tess. They receive work from the Fireflights, a militia group, to smuggle a girl, Ellie, that is immune to the virus.

    At first, Joel tries not to be attached to the girl, he even wants to give this job up, but his partner, Tess insists, then she is bitten by an infected and begs for him to go on with the job, saying that Ellie is the only hope for this sh1tty world.

    Throughout the journey, they are attacked many times and meet different people. I think each of them develops something, Bill (a crazy dude that lives all alone in an abandoned district) tells Joel that is better to give up and that he is gonna die if he tries to protect other people, interestingly, Bills survives.

    Then we meet Henry and his younger brother Sam (that looks like his son honestly), Sam is infected and Henry suicide, IMO they show how cruel this disease is and there is no hope for those infected.

    We meet Joel's brother that extended his hand to give them shelter, so they have an option, but they refused, following their idealistic thoughts instead.

    Ellie is kidnaped by cannibals and one of them, David wanna forgave her if she abandons Joel, but she refused and fight like hell against them. I think that encounter showed the loyalty of Ellie and her furious personality.

    In the end, after so many hardships Joel managed to deliver the girl to the Fireflights but when arrived there, they told him she needs to die to bring the cure for mankind but Joel refuses, slaughtering everyone in his way, and rescuing the girl, the girl that in the beginning he said he didn't care. Interestingly it seems everything was for nothing and that is discussed before.

    But although the whole journey for both characters was for nothing, which is kinda disappointing, it showed very well how this disturbed world works.

    Combat 9/10 - Honestly, I am kinda saturated of with these third-person shooters but here, I must admit the system in this game is very good, maybe the best I've played. I like how in this game the human enemies don't have any radar, so if they see you but you flee they lose sight of you. Also, you can pick up a bottle of brick and throw it into the enemies to stun them or in the ground to make noise, it is a very good system.

    The weapon's ammunition is limited and you can craft bombs, medkits and improvements to your melee weapon.

    Although I liked the combat against enemies' humans, I think sometimes it is kinda repetitive and it is just there to increase the gameplay time.

    But for me what definitely takes the cake is the combat against the infected. They are very fun to fight against because they are so different from other type of enemies. There are many types of these infected but the most interesting aspect is that they are blind and they locate you by the sound (and some with echo-location), so if you don't make noise you can pass through them, or you can throw a brick in the ground and everyone will group up to that sound.

    Also, there are dark parts where the clickers make a sound so creepy, it seems like in a horror movie.

    Gameplay 7/10 - when we not doing all of those things above, we are resolving some puzzles and collecting resources. I thank Naughty Dog for not doing such a bad puzzle-like in Uncharted 4. Here, the puzzles are ok.

    Overall, 8.5/10. Great game.

    But when the 4.0 patch came in, it became very stable to the point of being playable. Not super smooth but playable. I completed the game at that patch. "please wait" loading screen was there but not every minute. It showed up maybe once every hour. CPU did not reach 100% in this patch. Rather capped at 90%. It was good enough. Surprisingly I did not face any bugs in this game.
    Now about the game...
    Damn, the story is **** good. Like holy fk. Did not expect the story to crawl up like that. Did not see it coming. For the first few hours, I was not able to connect to the story. It felt like I was just shooting people without any context. But then something happened and I was hooked for good.
    The combat was really good. Really liked the stealth mechanic in this game. Crafting felt real and needed. Everything according to me felt AAA. I Enjoyed it. I hope people can get past this bad port optimization and enjoy this brilliant story of a Dad and daughter.

    Once i played it on a PS4 (i bought the PS4 just for this game) but i don't like to play with a controller so i was curious to see how it works on a PC with keyboard and mouse and it works.
    The game play though was getting old. When it was released on PS3 in 2013 it was ground breaking but now you see it can be done better. Now i want to have influence on the story but here the game fails. This could have been changed to make it more interesting.

    Stop whining and trust Sony / Naughty Dog to release more bug fixes as they always do. Blame yourself for buying a game before it is stable. For me it was stable enough and i care more for the game play than latest visual effects (i wouldn't play pixelized games though). I can only complain about the sound effects where i had only stereo on my 5.1 surround system.

    The "where is the ladder" or "take me to the other side" gets old very quick but since is not a long game i guess is not that bad. There are no puzzles and lacks enemy variety. instead of doing all those weapon upgrades customization they should have put more effort into that especially since this is a remake and they could have made the game a far lot better instead of just a graphics upgrade.

Most of it is just a hassle, which it is designed to be, but aside from nice graphics and somewhat good cutscenes it's just all negative.

    The combat is decent, the graphics are nice though it runs pretty bad, barely 100 fps on mostly high 4070ti, 13600k.
    The story is above average but it's very obvious as well as negative, too negative, uneccessarily so.
    If you compare this is Days Gone I don't know anyone in their right mind who would pick this over the other.
    Same setting, zombies, drama, open world in DG, better graphics in DG, endlessly more quest and content in DG, far more twisting story in DG and much more advanced combat.

    This game is probably worth to play, but to say its anything more than that says more of you as a so-called gamer

    Lets try to be objective at least, this is not a 0/10 because of glitches and whatnot (I didn't have any), it's not a 10/10, it's slightly better than average I think most would agree so giving it a 6.5/10

    Btw, the HBO series is trash.

    Over time, it started to bother me to search through empty rooms just to find 2 bullets. I actually grew fond of Joel, but Ellie was too foul-mouthed for my taste. (If 14-year-olds behave like that in the USA, then God help them.)

    I'm not sure if I missed some bestiary, but I would have liked more explanation about the mutants. Even considering the state of the world, I missed at least one positive character.

    The technical state was dreadful. First, it took over an hour to compile shaders. It probably didn't handle RAM well because after a while, the game started lagging, and I had to restart it. Also, it's quite audacious to charge a full price for a 10-year-old game in such a condition.

    talking about survival story . it is very important to craft weaponry by yourself , but this game is just like fool me around like treating child . of course you can reload faster 50% by cleaning barrel with rag .
    the game is normally playable but not good enough . I can feel the battle phrase like playing Turn-Base game .
    it is satisfied to see Ellie has her girlfriend .

    Bad conversion. Despite numerous patches now there are still many problems.

    My computer is by no means bad, although its far from the kind of beasts some people here are running, and I expected to play the game on medium settings.

    However when I started up the game it started loading shaders, and slowly but surely my computer caught fire and eventually exploded.
    Having awoken from the explosion induced coma, I took another look at the computer which miraculously survived, and the shaders were still loading. At least the eventual and unavoidable crash was some kind of change to the circumstances.
    The game is a 10/10
    The port is a 0/10
    I guess that makes a 5/10? Or would I be dividing by zero?
    In any case, I recommend this game to my future self, not my present self.

    Even without the horrible performance issues, the game just... isn't that good? It would make a great movie or tv show (imagine that!) but the actual game parts of the game suck. The graphics are amazing and detailed, the characters and dialogue and story are intriguing, but it all keeps getting interrupted by a completely run-of-the-mill cover shooter with some stealth elements.

The graphics are amazing and detailed, the characters and dialogue and story are intriguing, but it all keeps getting interrupted by a completely run-of-the-mill cover shooter with some stealth elements. There is only 1 part in the game I would even consider a boss fight, and it's nowhere near the end of the game. There are no puzzles, unless you count "there's a ledge you can't reach, find the ladder conveniently placed somewhere nearby to continue" as a puzzle, because there about a dozen of those. When the gameplay of a game is the worst part of the game, it gets a low score from me no matter how good the rest might be. After hearing for YEARS about what a masterpiece this game was, and finally being able to play it for myself (I've never owned a playstation) it did not live up to the hype at all. Expand

    IDK why peaple blame technical state of PC version. Works fine and smooth on 5900X and RTX 3080.

    However the game itself is not really a game. You`d better complete it on youtube. There is almost no gameplay. Completed "Days Gone" and it had both drama and good gaming competition. Sorry, I see no game here:(

    Very poor performance considering that this is a game from more than 10 years ago, only with new beautiful skins.

    I usually play heavy games on high-ultra without any problem (Atomic Heart, Valhalla, RDR2, etc). And the real point here is not that I have to play it at 30-40 fps, it's not that dramatic to imagine that I have an old console instead of a decent computer, the really annoying thing are the sudden drops during epic cinematic sequences. Simply unacceptable for the price it costs.

    I'm giving this game 3/10 because of its poor performance . To this day they still haven't fixed the memory leak issue and the high Cpu, Gpu usage. If you hate your hardware so much and want to grill your PC, then play this game . It's so sad because the game is not bad but the optimization kills any hope for me to play this bad PC port.

    Don't get me wrong, this is a good Game not a bad one. This review is made to say that This game on PC is a mess, worst port I've ever seen so far. Here are my sepcs: i7 12700 and a rtx 3080.
    Aside crashes, freezes and bugs most important issue for me is the crazy amount gpu/cpu/ram it's using. Here is the details on 1600x900 resolution:

    Aside crashes, freezes and bugs most important issue for me is the crazy amount gpu/cpu/ram it's using. Here is the details on 1600x900 resolution:
    CPU usage in menu till it ends loading shaders is literally 100%, and temp? Dmn I reached 83°C! Never seen that temp before!
    And in game, I'm getting around 65~75°C forccpu and 60~65°C for gpu temp. Sometimes cpu usages reaches 72% in game. Crazy right?

    If you haven't paid for the game yet, pls w8 till they fix the game. It's not worth 60$ at all at its statement atm.

    Итог: это не ремейк, а убогий ремастер, сделанный на отвали. Цена этой "ИГРЕ" 10-15 евро

    Yes, The Last of Us Part I for the PC has somewhat improved a little under two months in. Graphical stutters, framedrops, and other visual artifacts currently exist. If you’re able to look past those graphical shortcomings, The Last of Us Part I is a truly exceptional game. Consider waiting just a bit more before jumping into one of the best series from Sony and Naughty Dog to date.

    The remake of one of the most iconic games of all time finally got its PC version. Unfortunately, it is plagued with bugs and glitches, and the optimization is extremely poor. If you are not in a rush, wait for a more substantial update that will hopefully solve most of these problems. In the meantime, give it a try on the PlayStation 5 if you have the chance.

    It’s nice to be able to experience Joel and Ellie’s story on the PC. But it’s not the best way to go about things and a game as brilliant as this deserved better from its port. The crown jewel of three generations of PlayStation should’ve arrived in a much better state.
