🦃 November’s Game of the Month: The Last of Us: Part One 🦃

It’s finally time for our first meet-up! I couldn’t be more thankful this idea has turned into a welcoming community—and I’m pumped to dive into our first game together. Get ready to talk about The Last of Us: Part One, a dark yet beautifully crafted journey by Naughty Dog, the creators who first gave us Crash Bandicoot and then decided to, well… give us something a little heavier this time around! Directed by Neil Druckmann, this game first released in 2013, and it has since become an iconic experience in storytelling and survival.

In The Last of Us, you’ll follow Joel and Ellie as they navigate a post-apocalyptic world, battling infected threats, brutal human factions, and maybe even their own dark pasts. It’s a rich, emotional experience with a playtime of about 14 hours for the main story—though, if you’re one of those completionists who like to savor every scene and side path, it might take closer to 16.5 hours. A nice, manageable game length for our first month together!

Here’s how you can play it:

Platforms: PS4, PS5, and PC (available on the Epic Games Store)

PlayStation Plus Premium Pass: The PS5 remake of The Last of Us: Part One was added in early October—great timing for us!

Epic Games Sale: The game is currently on sale on the Epic Games Store. Links are at the bottom if you want to check them out.

And for anyone without access to the game, HBO has brought this story to life in a TV series that covers the entire plot of the first game and throws in some extra content. Video game adaptations don’t usually hit the mark, but this one’s an exception. It’s well worth a watch for all the plot details we’ll be discussing—whether you’ve beaten the game or not. But don’t worry if you haven’t played or watched; feel free to join us anyway to relax, chat, and make some new friends.

Meetup Details:
We’re gathering on Thursday, December 5th, at 7:30 PM at Reboot. It’s the perfect environment to settle in and chat about this unforgettable game. Just note that we’re meeting as a group in the outside patio area in front of the bar, not a private room. There is plenty of free parking in Dunedin. this is where I will be parking in a lot to walk to the bar from there.

And, for an extra bit of fun while you’re playing, join our Discord! Share your thoughts in real time and connect with others who are playing the game too—just a heads up to hold off on spoilers for the first two weeks to keep it enjoyable for everyone. I’m so grateful to have all of you here and can’t wait to meet up and talk gaming!

See you all there!
