Just one of the many voices impressed with the offering from Sony is the one and only Roger Clark, who played Arthur Morgan in 2018’s Red Dead Redemption 2. As a Star Wars fan who didn’t like Last Jedi I am not gonna criticize those of you who dislike #TLOU2, that’s fine but I am totally immersed. It’s a landmark in the medium. Best facial capture I have seen to date along with excellent performances, design and pace of storytelling- Roger Clark (@rclark98) June 20, 2020 Responding to criticism over Part 2, Clark tweeted: “As a Star Wars fan who didn’t like Last Jedi I am not gonna criticize those of you who dislike #TLOU2, that’s fine but I am totally immersed.

Their use of sound is a key element of this. Masterful pacing.” And sound too, one thing Naughty Dog are never afraid to do is let the game breathe once in a while.

Masterful pacing.- Roger Clark (@rclark98) June 20, 2020 Clark’s comparison between The Last of Us Part 2 and the most-recent trilogy of Star Wars movies isn’t unfounded. The review scores for the game and the movie Clark mentions, The Last Jedi, are remarkably similar when it comes to the critics vs. the fans.
