The game did good showing the protagonist's(Ellie) and the antagonist's(Abbie) sides of the situation. It showed how the two switched roles so quickly, and how the protagonist becomes a monster, but a different kinda of monster. It does well with how they developed sympathy for both sides and leave you feeling torn about what happens next.
The graphics do good developing the atmosphere for every situation, to dialog, and the level layout. All of the characters have very defined traits about themselves and do contribute to how you feel about both ellie and Abbie in many ways. The characters development is great especially when you take a look at Abbie's daily lifestyle. She gives off more than what she was originally known for in the beginning and turned out to be a whole different person in the end.
