One of the more ingenious mechanics that returned in The Last of Us Part 2 was a crafting system where everyday materials could be used to build all sorts of tools, but the sequel's addition of silencers should become a staple in future The Last of Us games. Between the original The Last of Us and its following remake and sequel, the kinds of resources that can be gathered have changed, likely to streamline and strategize the crafting system for players. But with these changes in The Last of Us Part 2 players had the chance to craft pistol silencers from just a rag and a canister.
