11: The Last Of Us, Neo Cab, Paper Mario, The Itch Bundle For Racial Justice
With The Last of Us 2 and Paper Mario: Origami King about to drop, I decided to backtrack and play the last entry in each series for the first time. With no spoilers beyond basic early-game plot points, I discuss my experience at the halfway point of The Last of Us, praising its world building, character development and notable cohesion. Neo Cab is praised for its intimate and well-rendered nocturnal taxi driver story. Paper Mario: Sticker Stars comes in for some critique for falling foul of basic point 'n' click tropes. Finally, I discuss the downside of Jedi: Fallen Order's Metroid-inspired level design. The Last Of US Remastered is available to play on PlayStation 4, and free for PSNow subscribers. The soundtrack by Gustavo Santaolalla is here: https://open.spotify.com/album/2GFFxj8aR2XpwIMYanOPjh Neo Cab is currently on offer on Steam.
