SPOILER
The reason why I gave it such a low rating is because of the decisions that the writers have made such as forcing you to play as Abby, no one who played the first game would love to play as Abby for 10 hours, you are even forced to fight Ellie, a character that we all loved from the first game. I am fine with them killing Joel if they absolutely have to, but I think that they did it way too early in the game, they should at least give us some gameplay between him and Ellie before he was killed.
Other than that, the story and the gameplay was okay, the gameplay might sometimes feel a bit redundant but it is okay because they were just trying to add more hours into the game. It is definitely one of the best looking game ever, the acting was amazing just like the previous game, all soundtracks were amazing as well, and the camera angles from those cutscenes were shot very well.
