I know there was a lot of controversy thanks to the leaks, but decided to give the game a shot because I trust Naughty Dog as a company, and honestly, they truly delivered with this game. The story was captivating and engaging, the characters felt real, and the setting was just massive. This is not a happy game, and it's not meant to be, it's a game about consequences and what your actions will cause in the outcome. It is a story that delves into the mindset of these characters and how they cannot move past what happened, devolving into madness in the process. I love this game, and although not as amazing as the first game, it's still worth 5 stars and worth picking up and playing (just don't look up spoilers).
