I was a FAN of original TLOU and after beating TLOU2, I've become a HUGE FAN of the 1st game as I realized how bad is the second game. great graphics, gameplay, AI, attention to detail but that doesn't cut it as they screwed the story big time. story IS the driving factor of last of us. without it, Last of us is like a car without gas.
neil druckmann can run his mouth all he wants but they always should remember they make games for the FANS not for CRITICS as fans are the people who actually buy their games, not critics (As they give away review copies for those outlets for free anyways)
So show some little respect to your fanbase and don't make any BS games ever again as you are one of the best in the business. what a waste.
