The Last of Us: Left Behind

Greetings from Lithuania.

"The Last of Us: Left Behind" (2014) is an excellent DLC to masterpiece "The Last of Us". It is a prequel and it also shows once part that wasn't included in the main game.

"Left Behind" is a very involving if a bit short (because you can't get enough of "The Last of Us" universe!) story that has action, humour and some chilly parts as well. I loved playing as Ellie as well as i loved Riley Abel character - would love to see them both growing up (and probably staying up together).

Overall, if you loved the main game, you will definitely will enjoy this short story. I finished it in a couple of hours, but i'm pretty sure i will come back to it one day.

A very good story content expansion to The Last of Us, story arc. Although short, but it still adds emotional punches to Ellie's journey. If you are a fan of the original title then you should definitely play this.

Ever-since I've finished The Last of Us story it was indeed one of the best games of 2013 because of its wise story-line and the characters felt realistic.I wanted more and more of The Last of Us and quite frankly this DLC manages to set very dark and very light tones. Playing as Ellie seems to be appropriate since her character manages to be one kick-ass teenage girl. We also get to explore her little journey with her best friend Riley. I don't really want to say much because this DLC needs to be played without giving out any spoilers. Though the game-play is still refreshing as always and now it gave it a more horror feel to it. And the graphics look very impressive as always. This is a good DLC to have if you're a fan of The Last of Us.

One of the things that made "The Last of Us" special was it's uncanny ability to blend story-telling and game-play together so seamlessly in a captivating environment. "The Last of Us" accomplishes this through it's combat and live time crafting system which solidify the intensity and depth of the game. These same elements are still present in the "Left Behind" DLC, but just presented in a slightly different way. And to be clear there is very little combat. Most of the interactions taking place are between the main characters, Ellie & Riley (who's actresses give tremendous performances), is in the form of conversations and the form of social activities like water gun fights or riding mall attractions. Even though this may not sound appealing, the way it is executed makes it something extremely special. The interactions done through the game-play enhance the player's emotional involvement in the main characters' relationship in a way only the developers at Naughty Dog could have ever imagined and executed with such brilliance. In the end "Left Behind" is a fantastic add-on to "The Last of Us" since it brings a lot to the table: Great game-play, amazing performances, and an amazing story that truly changes the way the player perceives the entire canon of the franchise. The only thing that may be the downside to some is that it's not combat focused and is only 3 to 5 hours long depending on how you play it for the price of $15 dollars right now. If so then wait, but it is still worth experiencing since it enhances the overall experience of "The Last of Us".

Just like last of us main story this is a masterpiece. The story is great!, again. I loved how they switched from flashbacks to realilty. Perfect ending and perfect story to know more about the whole story. Loved to play it. Not too long not too short it's great.
