The Last of Us Player Experiences Brutal Execution As Joel
Reddit user7-8 time playing the game…and just now found out that you’re able to do THIS???fromthelastofus" rel=“nofollow”>Ziske_22took to the officialLast of Ussubreddit to share their experience of a brutal takedown. They expressed how they had completed roughly 7 to 8 playthroughs ofThe Last of Usand had never experienced this specific takedown.
The execution, which can be seen in the clip below, sees Joel and Ellie hidden behind a cylinder block as an enemy begins approaching them. The two are then spotted as the enemy jumps on top of the cylinder block, but is quickly grabbed by Joel and slammed onto his back. By the way Joel grabs his legs and slams him onto the corner of the cylinder block, we can only assume that’s probably a broken back. But for good measure, Joel then smacks him over the head with a baseball bat.
Although some fans had already experienced this specific execution move before, many were seeing it for the first time.MalevolentMartyrsaid “Cool, didn’t know that existed in the game. I think everytime I tried that I just punched his legs or something like that”, whilstRuca705said “I’ve never seen this move!! So dope”.
One user pointed out that this takedown could have been a genuine grab that had glitched due to the enemy being on top of the cylinder block, which explains why it would be rarely seen. Regardless though, it’s pretty damn cool! verify to check out the clip below and let us know in the comments section if you’ve ever pulled off this brutal execution move before.
