I’m sure we’ve all played through a level in a video game that’s stuck with us for years after playing it. If I had to give an example myself it’d be the final level ofHalo 3, being the culmination of everything that had transpired across the first three games, ending with a climatic warthog-run through an exploding world.

However, one commenterreplied“The final mission ofThe Last of Us Part 1” and honestly I can’t blame them, it was an exceptionally great level in an overall phenomenal game, and others shared their opinion.

“God that mission made me cry when I played through it. Knowing that Joel has to lie to Ellie to keep her safe yet she knows he’s lying through his teeth and she would have gladly sacrificed herself… oof…”

“I still cry everytime I play that mission. That mission does such an amazing job making you hate yet love Joel.”

“The ending seriously blew me away when I first played it. I’ve never felt so invested in a story. American Venom in RDR2 had a similar feeling.”
