After playing the entire game and initially giving it a one-star review I change it to 4 stars. The graphics, gameplay, voice acting and animations after are simply amazing. I am so sad that some points in the story were so horribly executed. Mainly Joe's rush death that made no sense in the context of his character or Abby's. I also didn't like the continuous undertone that tries to push an agenda so blatantly that has no place in video games. I also did not enjoy playing as Abby. Maybe if she would have earned her place in the history with more development but naughty dog here was simply lazy. I felt nothing for the character and it was not her appearance or voice acting performance it was simply that the writers got some parts of this game so wrong. I will keep my copy in the hope that the game generates some DLC that might explain Abbys character better or allow me to play as Ellie wich it was what I wanted from the beginning. In closing its an amazing experience except for the character of Abby the rest is just astonishing.
