Yep, I too played Last of Us 2 on my v1-launch edition PS4 and I wasn't sure the console was going to survive to the end of the game. I was seriously concerned for the console's health. God of War is another game that put that console to its breaking point. A few times dropping down to what was probably 15-20fps with fans on at max-speed.
It actually is bad enough that I will limit gaming sessions out of concern for the hardware. Which is also probably better for me and my personal life.
At least in a God of War they yell everything, on Last of Us 2 I could barely hear anyone over the fan
Guess I will wait a while before getting PS5, means I also have to wait on Cyberpunk 2077. I heard they’ll CD Projekt will upgrade ps4 version purchasers for free but I dont trust their ability to do that in an uncomplicated way.
Were you playing the disc version? I think I have the original PS4 too and I didnt hear anything, but I played the digital version so maybe that's the reason?
