The Last of Us Part 1features many complex characters with intertwining relationships that have a serious effect on the characters and the world around them. It’s chapter six of the game that is deeply interested in exploring these relationships and their wider impact asThe Last of Us Part 1heads into its final act. During this chapter, Ellie and Joel arrive in Jackson, Wyoming, where Joel’s brother and former Firefly member, Tommy, is said to be residing. This chapter not only deals with the emotional fallout of summer, but also sets up the continued growth of Ellie and Joel’s relationship as their insecurities are exposed and conflict arises.
ThroughoutThe Last of Us Part 1, players can find optional conversations that help organically grow characters outside of cutscenes and combat areas. Helping to tell the award-winning story, players are encouraged to engage with this dialogue by being rewarded with points for unlockable extras and a trophy for finding them all. Optional conversations are triggered by approaching a character in a specific area and interacting with them; by default, this is with theTriangle button on PlayStation 5. This guide will show players where to trigger all four conversations in theTommy’s Dam chapterto help unlock the “Getting to Know You” achievement. As the two make their way towards the town, the first optional conversations can be found after completing a short puzzle involving raising dam barriers to cross a river.
