PlayStation’s overdue answer to Halo

Wonky launch woes aside,The Last Of Us Part 1’sPC release is a net positive. A new audience can now experience one of PlayStation’s best exclusives, but even better, modders can get their hands on Joel and Ellie’s trek, rejigging a familiar story in new ways. There aren’t too many exciting ones available to download just yet, but one “in-progress” mod reimagines the game in first-person, and it’s stunning.

The video below, from YouTube channel Voyagers Revenge, showcases the first-person mod and promises more updates to come. It places the camera into Joel’s head, effectively transforming The Last Of Us’ third-person action-horror experience into an FPS game. All of the settings are on theGroundeddifficulty (the hardest one) except resources, allowing the player to have an abundance of ammo and crafting materials for “aggressive gameplay.”
Despite playing on Grounded, the video makes it seem pretty easy. Maybe it’s the magic of video editing, maybe whoever’s playing is just an expert survivor, or maybe a first-person view really does help with aiming. Regardless, this first-person Joel rampages through both bandits and clickers with an ominous, patient, T2-Terminator type of stroll; the TLOU experience I remember had me stealthing and stabbing my way across the apocalypse on Normal difficulty.

Certain animations - like the one where you repeatedly help Ellie climb over a ledge - pull you back into a third-person view, and melee combat looks a little off as you can’t really see Joel’s hands or the patchwork weapons he’s holding. Apart from that, though, the game looks perfectly readable from this new perspective.
