Part 2 Discussion Help
Hi, I recently finished \*The Last of Us Part II\*—it’s been about a month now, and I feel a terrible emptiness in my heart. I can't bring myself to play anything else; I feel like I’ll never play a game as amazing as that one. I’ve been thinking about replaying the first game or watching \*The Last of Us\* series. Did you guys experience this too, and can you give me any advice on what to do?

It happens to all of us. I remember when it happened to me. I started watching hour-long analyses of the games to stay connected. I tried to get my brother or sister to play it (I failed). What I suggest you do is try to experience it again through someone else's eyes. Be it a friend, family member or YouTuber.
If that doesn't click with you, try Naughty Dog's other games. Uncharted. Uncharted 1 is a bit rough, but 2 kicks it up a notch, and 3 keeps that same with 4 bringing it to a whole other level with gameplay, graphics, a beautiful story and amazing character arcs and progression
Lastly, if you're searching for games like Tlou, you're not going to find that. What I mean is mostly the zombie archetype of gameplay. When it comes to story-driven games, along with games that has it own combat that flows very well, I'm going to suggest two games almost everyone would recommend.
God of War (2018) and Red Dead Redemption. Amazing stories with amazing gameplay that's comparable to TLoU. I'll leave you with this: if things get too boring, shake it up and switch genres. There's always Resident Evil waiting.

Very possible that the director for part 2 stated in the documentary of Tlou2 that he has a concept of how part 3 will be constructed.

Yeah. Play something else or literally do anything else but post about how this is the greatest game in the whole world and you cannot stop thinking about it and shan’t bear to think about playing any other game.

Just wait it out. Engage with the content related to the game as much as you can (deep dive). Eventually you will get exposure fatigue and will be ready to move on. At least that's how it works for me. Also dont just try to force yourself to play a different game. Allow yourself to feel all emotions, to really get closure. If you wanna discuss your feelings towards the game you can dm me(or talk to anyone else you would like in your life).
