The Last of Us 2's best moments are its quiet ones

," says Margenau. "If you look at that video, you can see that there's a lot of inspiration there. Inside is another one; the way the monster's arms touch a lot of stuff is just this inherently creepy thing. So we're awar💃e of things like that, but we have to make it our own and do all the extra work that's needed to make it feel real." 

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Last of Us 2's other co-game director Anthony Newman also confirmed that the section in which the Rat King's Stalker half splinters off from its host "was actually inspired by the Magni and Modi bossfight from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:God of War, where you had these two complimentary enemies -ꦑ one with a fast weapon and one with a big sl𒆙ow weapon".

"The ending fight with the Stalker was inspired by Eileen the crow from澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: Bloodborne," continues Newman. "I loved how in a game with bosses that were 20 stories high, the most challenging and br𝓰utal fight of them all was this person who is the exact same size as you. So that was something we were really interested in: how can we make an infected who isn't massive feel just as deadly?"
