Everyone’s so butt hurt about what happens in the beginning I know, it was hard for me to but I got over it. The depth of the story in Part 2 is just too good to say it’s a bad game. It is a lengthy sequel with great writing, action, combat, music, etc etc. It takes everything from the first one and makes it better. I just couldn’t get over how violent the sequel is compared to the original, it’s extremely violent sometimes unbearably so, poor Ellie has such a hard life..I think the Naughty Dog team did a fabulous job with just the sheer scale of this game, it’s monumentous.
