At 4 min, if you told me that was live action, I'd believe you.  I'm still not completely convinced.

amazing trailer,  new gafs reaction is hilarious. its supposed to be dark.

i also have a feeling it was toned down. probably was a hatchet at first instead of a hammer.  clipping wings would make more sense that way lol

I loved that the kid didn't even think about saving the hanging woman. Really showed how the people have been living in these poor conditions for a long time.

Also wonder what the story is. What is this cult?

Could be early stages of the fireflies especially if what is in this trailer is before the events of the last of us.  In neil druckmanns interview about it he specifically said "when is this taking place".  Could be throwing us off or just trying to make us speculate.

This seems to be the theory. ^
Makes sense.

Yeah it definitely would be cool.  Plus people keep mistaking the lady for Ellie. So it could easily be her mom.  I feel like if it is though it should have been kept a secret till everyone played it cause now it's just not gonna hit as hard if the theory is right.

I doubt that's her mom. ND "tend to" be good at using trailers to mislead people.

Remember how everyone thought that one TLOU trailer spoiled Joel getting infected and Ellie having to kill him?

So what you're saying is....this is Joel in the trailer. I knew it.

Yeah I don't think they would spoil something that's potentially huge like that.  But they are being coy about saying what her name is.

DD_Bwest

yea im thinkin its well before,   its gotta be her mom and in someway relates to the formation of the fireflies.  the clipping wings might be another reference to that.

Ugh.  
yup that shame is so dumb. i see it as a bunch of bedsprings who dont want to be embarrassed cause they have a hard time handling the violence while everyone else plays it no problem.

ND has used violence effectively to form that relationship with the player.  it makes you want to hate the enemy.

my god im excited for this

I just think it's weird because other games are easily just as violent.
Even the first TLoU gameplay had Joel bashing someone's head into a desk with blood gushing out.  Another guy getting beaten in the face and subsequently shot.  

Bloodborne, The Walking Dead are just as violent as anything shown in the trailer.  
For some reason, it's being compared to things like Saw, being called torture bad stuff.  


The only thing that really stood out about the trailer was how realistic it looked.
