When The Last of Us 2 came out, not all the fans were happy. The controversial Naughty Dog title made a very difficult decision regarding one of its main characters. The popular Hollywood star, O’Shea Jackson Jr., recently posted on X about how this game is one of the best things that he has ever experienced.
The actor from the Obi-Wan Kenobi series and the hit movie Straight Outta Compton is a well-known geek; on his own profile, he describes himself as a Pokémon master. So it is no surprise that he is playing this popular game.
Naughty Dog’s Game Receives Praise From Obi-Wan Kenobi and Straight Outta Compton Star
It is no surprise that, after almost four years, The Last of Us 2 keeps receiving praise and good criticism. The game took the PS4 to the limit and became one of the best narratives in gaming history. This IP puts the player in a totally uncomfortable position throughout the whole duration of the game. The concept of making you control characters that hate each other was a masterpiece of narrative design.
Playing as Abby and Ellie and breaking their entire personalities by showing them that it is not all about hate was one of the best stories in recent years, and this studio accomplished one of the more solid gaming experiences of the decade.
