The Last of Us Part II – Seattle Locations Tour

I live in Seattle and adored playing TLOU2 in my home city. Was a total trip playing set pieces in areas where I used to work downtown.

I could get nitpicky about a few areas that didn’t really make sense (and I’m still not really sure where the Seraphite camp was in act three given geography or what our actual aquarium looks like inside) but given how much I enjoyed the game I didn’t really care.

In theory, the Seraphite island is supposed to be Queen Anne + Magnolia after flooding separates them from the mainland. But you can read lots of internet posts talking about the issues with that, like https://www.reddit.com/r/lastofuspart2/comments/1kzicba/figu... .

The demo for CoD:MW3 [0] had a combat mission in and around the New York Stock Exchange.

As someone who worked in that area for many years AND worked on the technology side of finance, it was def a "trip" to be playing a FPS set in those neighborhoods.

Magnolia used to be an island in Puget Sound. They dumped fill into the area of Seattle we now call Interbay to connect it to the mainland where Queen Anne is.

It doesn’t make sense for Queen Anne to be an island, it is connected by a ridge to the rest of the mainland. The topography doesn’t support that notion.

Thanks for the info about Magnolia and Interbay. I did not know that!

The Seattle Aquarium is amazing, you should definitely give it a visit. It's not even that expensive. They have a little tide pool "petting zoo" with all sorts of cool critters with interesting bodies. I moved out of Seattle and I definitely miss the aquarium.

They also do this thing in the summers where they send folks out to the local beaches to educate people about all the stuff you can find there. It's really cool! Going on until the end of July!

Same!

Would love to hear feedback if anyone has any!
