People are just bombing this game because they don't understand it, it is one of the deepest stories I've played in a long time and one of the most beautifully crafted one as well, yes Joel's death was unexpected and to some extent unfair and 90% of ppl are like yeah they killed Joel and I don't like it, play the game and understand it, I'll go so far as to say that this is the best game on ps4, period. Play the game with an open and accepting mind and try to see, what is going on, why Ellie didn't kill Abby, well Abby killed Joel because he killed her father, if Ellie kills Abby the cycle will never stop and all she wants at the end is to live peacefully with Dina and JJ. Love the game and don't bomb without playing it. It's is hand down my top 5 games of all time.
