I think there is a double standard for Indie games: when somebody makes an indie platformer people say, "Oh look another Indie platformer that's original" it doesn't matter how good the game actually is. Nobody bothered to say anything about Bioshock Infinite just being another FPS or TLOU being just another 3rd person shooter, because they did what they did well even if it wasn't original. I guess people just assume that because it's indie it automatically thinks it's innovative.

The Last of US wasn't just another 3rd person shooter...

and it wasn't indie...

Gameplay wise, it was.

But did anybody say anything? Just look at The Witness, a game that isn't even out yet and it's already accused of being a Myst rip off. But TLOUs really didn't do anything to innovate third person shooters, all it's innovations were cut scenes. That doesn't make it bad, but nobody is complaining about it's unoriginality.

It was survival horror 3rd person, with stealth elements. It had a compelling story, characters, etc.

From what I played of TLOU it was nothing like that at all. It was a regular 3rd person shooter with some minor stealth elements and appallingly bad controls.

Don't worry they probably have more dick moves prepared.
