"Hey, I really don’t want to sound like I’m just copying what others have said, but they make a great point. I played The Last of Us Part II at a friend’s place because he wanted my honest opinion—and honestly, I was really disappointed. Here’s my take: Joel, the guy who fought through Runners, Bolters, and ruthless bandits with his bare hands—that Joel—dies at the hands of some random teenager? This is the man who survived hell and came out on top more than once. When I was hoping for another round of Joel and Ellie—the iconic duo—I got Abby’s storyline instead. And to be blunt, I didn’t care for her at all. What made the first game so powerful was the father-daughter bond between Joel and Ellie. They were double trouble, the perfect team in a broken world. That emotional connection made it more than just a game—it was an experience. Sure, the second game is beautiful visually. But without Joel and Ellie, it just doesn’t feel like The Last of Us. So if you ask me, don’t waste your money. Treat Part I as if it’s the only game in the series, and end on a high note. Have a great day."
