The Last Of Us Survival Guide: Exploration

Surviving cataclysmic events is always hard, especially in the gaming world and without some good help and a solid strategy it becomes even harder. Surviving is the main focus of Naughty Dog’s The Last Of Us: not only Infected will do everything they can to make sure you won’t be able to escape the infested United States but also soldiers and hunters will be getting in your way.

Understanding the many gameplay mechanics of The Last Of Us is going to be one of the most important things to do in the game: fighting all enemies in the game will only lead you to an early grave. Stealth is the key and prior information on the enemies’ capabilities and positions will prove to be more important than ever.

Luckily the game provides you with everything you need to avoid encountering and fighting Infected. Even if you’re discovered by them you may still be able to escape from them without getting damaged too much.

In The Last Of Us Survival Guide we will be covering a few tips which will help you in your survival endeavors by analyzing the most basic gameplay elements of the game. Once we’re done we will be delving further into the game. If you’ve been having problems with the new Naughty Dog survival horror game, you’ve come to the right place.

• Exploration

The Last Of Us areas are quite big and if you just rush through each one you’re going to be missing quite a lot. If you want to experience everything the game has to offer, you’ll find exploration quite rewarding. There’s no reason not to, actually: you can use the torch as much as you want and there’s no chance to fall of ledges.

Make sure to always check the interaction circles on drawers and lockers to get items sometimes. Optional conversations with characters are also interesting and help you understand the world around you more.

Artifacts and glowing objects are just as useful and you may want to get them as soon as you see them: many of the collectibles are actually quite useful and you may end up finding Training Manuals which give you permanent boosts as stronger shivs and more effective health packs.
