Summary
The Last of Usfans are always looking for more hidden details in the games, and one fan has discovered that Joel’s house in Jackson which players get to explore thoroughly inThe Last of Us Part 2can actually be seen in the first game, as well. While there are a number of reasons why bothThe Last of Usgames are widely acclaimed by the community, the attention to detail remains by far one of the most praised aspects of the franchise.
It’s been quite a few years since the release of both titles, and players still keep finding subtle details which is extremely easy to miss. For instance, a player recently discovered an interestingSeraphite detail inThe Last of Us 2, which most players wouldn’t have noticed. During the Chinatown Sniper encounter, players come across two Seraphites, out of which one of them will talk about their inexperience. However, what’s notable is that the dialogues can be switched between the two at random, which adds an extra layer of realism to the game. Now, another player has discovered a neat detail in the first game.
In a new post onThe Last of Ussubreddit, user Imactuallysoconfused highlights an interesting aspect they discovered in the first game. In the final chapter ofThe Last of Us Part 1, which is named Jackson, players can actually see Joel’s house in the background. Players get to see and exploreJoel’s house extensively inThe Last of Us Part 2, but the fact that it was present in the first game as well is something many fans would’ve missed.
It is crucial to note that this is not present in the original or the remaster ofThe Last of Usand is in fact fromThe Last of Us Part 1. As other players have highlighted, Jackson is quite small and not as well detailed in the initial two versions, butThe Last of Us Part 1makes some significant changes to the game. It should be noted that the house is located quite far away, so players might have to use the debug mod onThe Last of Us Part 1PC version to get a closer look at the house.
The Last of Us Fans Are Divided Over The Accuracy Of The Detail
While some fans have appreciated the detail, others have quite highlighted that it is possible that it is a different house but just looks similar. Some players noted that the pine tree which can be found near Joel’s house inThe Last of Us Part 2is missing in the first game, which possibly suggests that the house might be different after all. That being said, a few fans added that there is a significant time gap between the two games, so it is possible that the environment might not be the same. ConsideringNaughty Dog’s attention to detail inThe Last of Usfranchise, this actually doesn’t sound like too far-fetched a theory.
