After Ellie tries to open the lock and they shoot at her, run through the building on the left and jump through the window and stay crouched behind it outside the building. Enemies almost never see you once you get into this spot. Then play it really slow, taking out guys when it's safe and using brick throw and melee as much as possible.

If you’ve played the game multiple times, it makes grounded way easier. Listening mode is pointless.. it’s a 3rd person game just peak corners lol. You still have to adjust to the enemy AI in part 2 and part 1 remake… they will kill you if you peek while they’re aiming, or if you sprint towards them. Grounded is the best way to play these games and after you get comfortable with it, you won’t go back.

@@WolfofThorns Last of us part 2 proved we don't need shivs as a game play mechanic, and one of the most fundamental weapons and tools a person can have since time immemorial is a knife. I just don't believe that over the course of 20 years Joel never found a knife. He has one in the show, so obviously the creators realized their mistake. Somehow he found a rifle, shotgun, bow, flamethrower, pistol, revolver, sawn off shotgun, pistol with a scope. But he can't find a knife? that's just dumb.

No David, but his voice was there and I could hear him starting the fire to block the exit. I just stood there and saw David OUTSIDE the diner, just standing there and me and him death stared each other before he magically started shooting at me past the (non-glass shattering) window. Restarted the encounter, still had the revolver but he was inside, started shooting at him as he sprinted at me and he BODIED EVERY SINGLE BULLET AND I WAS ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED.

I still somehow had the same experience. I found it very challenging at first, and I felt like I couldn't use any materials, and I had to kill everyone so I could collect everything. I got really stuck on that encounter where you get the bow. Was stuck there literally for hours. But I told myself after that, no more overhoarding. Play scrappy, take hits, use health, use your weapons, get through it. Suddenly the game was so much easier, and I still had loads of gear when it switched to Abby. Now on the Abby play, I'm actually struggling a little to keep my material up, and it's so much more fun. I love the feeling of scrappy stealth over perfect stealth. Perfect stealth is fun in a game like Hitman, but scrappy stealth is exhilarating in a game like this. So my advice is, try to run out of stuff. Don't try too hard, you do need some stuff. But perfection play just isn't as fun, and wastes the biggest resource, your actual time. Make speed your priority. As long as you make sure every shot counts, take just use what you have to take out the big threats, run, hide, thin the heard, beat the stragglers. Resources will balance themselves out

So it's interesting you mention 2 being easy after playing 1 grounded. I had the opposite problem lol. I started with 2 Grounded and then just completed 1 grounded for the first time because of the remake. 1 was still hard in parts don't get me wrong. But 2 kicked my ass. Maybe it's whichever game you play grounded on first that's harder and you carry that grounded knowledge into the next? Found that interesting

11:37 omg I thought you said "the Russian mob" and burst out laughing. Also just finished my second grounded run for tlou2 yesterday, next will be my first grounded run without new game plus, and I actually got a lil emotional because my six playthroughs all were connected via new game plus saves. Never put this much dedication into a getting good at a game (i suck at most lol), but this game captures my personal struggles with ptsd and trauma like no other piece of media I've ever experienced, I just can't stop coming back to this game time and time agia

I always play on normal first playthrough. Now that I am replaying tlou2 I though about playing on max difficulty but then realized that I am doing this to have fun. I want to be able to use bombs without worrying about the resources too much, that's why I am only playing on Hard+. I feel like sometimes the hardest difficulty's are just very frustrating.

Awesome & insightful video brotha, I usually play games on easy for my first play through just to enjoy the story & just jump to the highest difficulty after that, my favorite “hardest difficulty games” are both from Naughty dog, the uncharted games & now the last of us games, they’re really the most satisfying games to play when the difficulty is cranked.

I hear you, Marine. Yeah, when the next The Last of Us game comes out, I will probably play it my first time on Hard difficulty, but then go immediately to Grounded afterwards.

Hard is a good first play through plenty of ammo you can still shoot through most segments and you still have listening mode. Survivor starts to bump it up.

I learned this years back. When I was little, playing resident evil franchise on ps1, I found out that the best rewards and gaming experiences was in playing these games on their hardest difficulties. Plus my older brother encourged me to do so. Since then, all games I play I do it on "Hard" to begin with, because it is set on my mind that is just the way the games are ment to be played. (For me).

I'm not trying to brag here but instead of climbing through the difficulties, i always play all my games on the hardest mode from the start, I have in my mind that doing that I'm not just playing the game on the mode that is most realistic but also I'm improving my skill on it to the highest level possible, so like.. when I do that, it forces me to play the game in a more smart way, and all my wins become a lot more rewarding, even though if it takes some more time to pass through some parts, when I make it, I don't just learn a lot more about the game but also feel a lot more gratified. Doing that made me realise that hard difficulties aren't that hard in the end, and that the best approach to have if you want to play some game on them, it's to just jump directly to them, because learning from them from the start is already the best way to get good at the game anyway.

Btw the last part before you finish the game with a bunch of infected and bloaters it’s possible to do with out a shiv just have be sneaky that’s it and use the bottle’s to distract everyone and then you can sneak over everyone all I wasted on that part was an arrow cause there was an annoying runners in a tunnel that had some materials I wanted but not and it’s possible to kill quietly but much easier and consistent with arrows

16:40 So I actually had like no ammo on this part and I remember that you’re able to actually sneak up to those three guys by the door and stealth kill them all in a row! Or even just sneak past them. It’s kind of funny though cause you literally jump over the little barrier they’re crouched behind lol.

Left behind is by far the hardest on grounded! The other 2 just have isolated sections that are a pain in the arse but are quite doable through trial and error. But the final battle in left behind is a total nightmare due to being so hard to stealth and being flanked from every angle at once

omg yes on survivor it took me fricken FOREVER, they're coming at you from every angle, when you sprint it's like 50/50 you'll get shot and die, you can't stealth it, and i always feel like there isn't nearly enough bottles or bricks to kill most of them😭. i just get punched and die😭
