The Last of Us Part II Remaster for Playstation 5 just dropped as well as the Grounded II documentary about the making of Part II, so what better time to play it? We completely missed the controversy when it came out in 2020 so we were excited to finally play and see what all the debates were about and it definitely did not disappoint. Our discussion went a little long so we ended up having to split it into two episodes with the next one dropping next week!
