The protagonist Joel is one such smuggler, but his story started twenty years ago on the night of the actual outbreak, when his entire world was turned upside down. Entire cities are abandoned and cordoned off, and ration card, weapon, food, and resource smuggling is rampant.
The ‘The Last of Us’ is a survivor cum horror cum action game set in the distant future, wherein the outbreak of a mutated fungus ‘cordyceps’ that causes humans to become aggressive, braindead creatures (referred to simply as ‘the infected in the film, akin to zombies) has caused close to half the population being decimated, and the remaining population remains quarantined in safe zones governed by militia. Again, it’s an emotion not many of you would resonate with, but for those who do, there’s lots to read on and reminisce. Needless to say if my rant hasn’t already brought that out to the front, ‘The Last of Us’ is singularly the best game I have played till date, and while I really hope the second part changes that, the original will always have a special, special place in my heart for what it made me feel the first time I played it. For me, it is an extended film, one of the best I have watched, that requires me to lift my controller every now and then to reveal what happens next.
We could also imagine that this could be linked to the leaked end-game cinematic from Halo Infinite's original Campaign, with The Chief potentially meeting up with other members of the UNSC.I have never considered ‘The Last of Us’ as merely a game. Without spoiling anything, the plot does revolve a lot around this particular topic, and it is important to note that the game's ending does offer a few possible entry-points for Endless-related storylines. It would, however, fit with the narrative to have the Story DLC centre around The Endless. Filing for a trade mark might not actually mean anything, though, as it could even be for potential future Multiplayer DLC.
What this Story DLC would entail is as of yet unknown, but there are a few suggestions that it will have something to do with The Endless, and may even be called "Halo: The Endless", as Microsoft has recently filed for a trademark of the latter name. Nothing has been officially confirmed, but we think it is highly likely that Halo Infinite will get some kind of single-player story DLC down the road. So where is this big satisfying ending that we were waiting for? Well, we're afraid to admit that it may be coming in the form of post-launch single-player DLC. Halo Infinite was bid as a conclusion to the Reclaimer "Trilogy", but left us with many questions and very few answers. Ultimately, the game's strength is in its gameplay – where it absolutely excels – but not in its ability to weave a consistent and engaging narrative. The reality is that whilst Halo Infinite's Campaign was pretty fantastic, it was mired by inconsistent storytelling. The question on everyone's mind, then, is what can we expect from the future of Halo? How will Chief's story be continued? In fact, the ending to Halo Infinite (no spoilers, don't worry) was unbelievably open, and certainly not the conclusion we expected it to be. Halo Infinite brought an end to the story-arc established by Halo 4 all the way back in 2012, but by no means is the end of Master Chief's story.
