    Pre-ordered The Last of Us 2.  
    Gonna play the first one again before the new one comes out.  Was easily one of my favorite games of all time.
    It was weird, after I played through the first one, I never had the desire to play it again.  For one of my favorite games, I was content with a single play-through.
    Since 2 is coming out soon, I figured I'd give it another go.


    My god , I think I have done at least 10 playthroughs since it came out in 2013 on PS3 , never get tired of the story or the game. I have not played it in close to a year so will do another playthrough before the new one comes out.

    Level design , clickers , story , characters , raw emotion one of the few times I teared up playing a game.

    I think that's why I was ok with playing it once.  It didn't think it would have the same "feel" as it did the first time through.  Just a brilliant story, the emotion, everything was perfectly done.
    That said, I'm now ready to dive back in.

    Yeh, I also just played the first one a single time. I think it was a great game, but kinda did not feel the need to replay it again.

    I think it will be the same for part 2. 

    I do not do much of replays besides RPG games I think in general. 
    Music is what feelings sound like.

    Yup.  I almost never replay story-based games.  I might replay Red Dead 2 at some point.  I know there was a lot of stuff I didn't do or missed.
    I also pretty much have to replay the Resident Evil 3 remake.  Got to a point where I got "stuck" with no ammo.  Can't go back to get more and can't get through with the tiny bit of ammo I have.
    Thought about replaying Horizon Zero Dawn, but will prob just wait for the new one with the new system.  
    Was also going to replay Zelda Breath of the Wild.  I travel a lot for work (or I did) and that game made those flights fly by.

    Breath Of The Wild just seemed like too much for me to jump back into , I want to but I think my first playthrough was around 120 hours and I just did not want to start over. Only thing that may tip that scale is I played it on the WiiU the first time and now having a Switch it could be cool.

    I did want to re-play Zelda: Skyward Sword , I love it the first time I played it but my now wife's father passed a month after it came out , I was pretty far thru it but by time we were thru it , I just had lost interest in picking it up again.

    Breath of the Wild on Switch was fun. I remember I bought it when I was sick and had to spend a week in bed so I played in in handheld mode and was surprised how fun and easy to play it is that way. I did not finish it ever ( think I was about 70% through the main story) and now I have no drive to go back, but still I enjoyed it (though I would not give it all those 10/10).

    I remember beating Breath of the Wild on a plane.  This was a month or two after the Switch and the game came out.  
    I was battling the last "guys" and it was super intense, when all of a sudden, this dude and his kid come up and tap me on the shoulder.  "Hey, is that that Switch...der, what are you playing...that looks neat."  I remember saying something like "Uh, yeah it is" and putting my earbuds back in.  Total dick move but you don't interrupt me when I'm beating the boss and what took me like 100 hours to get to!  LOL

    Did they fix the ability for PC gamers to play against Switch users?

    No idea. I am not a fan of multiplayer (except for Fifa) so did not even try.

    Been playing The Last of Us "Remastered".  Man, what a great game that is!  It def looks dated compared to modern games, but it still hold up well.   Crazy to think the original was a PS3 game.

    Never finished the Last of Us.   I'm not a big fan of linear games filled with cut-scenes.

    I have been playing MLB The Show 20.  Mainly the Diamond Dynasty mode.  Its a bit of a grind, but it is fun.

    Am I the only one who knows nothing about Animal Crossing?  I see it mentioned so often and I know zip about it.

    I doubt it. I had never played any of the previous versions. I asked a lot of questions before I picked it up. It's mindless with very few objectives.

    The only one I played was the first for Gamecube ( I think that was the first one ) I went down the rabbit hole with it and yes looking back it seems like I wasted my time just doing chores around a town and spicing my house up.

    However I also play 100+ hours of Death Stranding last year so I cant say people are wasting their times while I spent 10 hours one day on that game building a road from one stop to the next lol
