The first and second game go hand in hand. This game surpasses the first one in my opinion. I’m nearly done with the campaign atm and have literally no complaints. If you cant sit and play through a story driven game, then blame that on how majority of games now are FPS games or your ADHD. If your problem with the game is that you’re playing a gay female, then that says a lot about you as a person since Ellie in this game is the same Ellie in the first game, just grown up.
Overall my experience has been 10/10. There’s a lot of enemy types, the gameplay feels so smooth, the game puts you in an emersive mode that makes you watch your back all the time. There’s about 5 zombie types; an addition of 2 more from the previous game (so far from my gameplay). And then there’s normal humans with guns, melee, and bows, and then there’s the hunter humans with mostly knives and bows. The game has you on your feet and you truly feel immersed in the realistic story.
Majority of the bad reviews are either from ADHD children or grown men who’s true problem is the fact you’re not playing as a man. If you’re rating the game bad as part of a spoiler, then that in itself makes no sense considering you could have avoided all spoilers by choice.
