I’m giving this rating cause I can honestly see both sides. The game is very pretty to look at and I do love the combat in this game and how they made it a little harder then the first one but there are some things I am upset since we waited 7 years for this and it doesn’t live up to the first one. First things first the way Joel died. I knew he would die in this game but I didn’t expect it to be in the first 2 hours of the game nor was I expecting the way he died. It should have been done differently and in my opinion he should have died at the end of the game. Also the way they tried to make us like Abby who killed Joel a character who everyone loved was also a little aggravating but at the same time it does give you a point of view on why she did it and I think we would all do the same thing if we were in Abbys shoes because everyone lives their own lives so we got to see Abbys point of view and to see through her eyes. Keep in mind I don’t like Abby as a character in anyway I’m just stating I do see both sides. Another point is I think Ellie should have still killed Abby because again I think we all would do it if we were in Ellie’s shoes and I do think Ellie deserved a better ending then to be left alone which she stated was her worst fear in the beginning of the game. But at the same time I do like to see the darker side of games so again I see both sides. I don’t think people should hate on the game either without playing the game though and experiencing it yourself. You have waited so long for it so at least give it a chance and I’m sure you could see both sides. So in conclusion I give this rating just for the fact of seeing both sides and that I really liked the first one so much and I don’t have it in me to hate it so much like everyone else is.
