*NO SPOILERS IN THIS REVIEW* I am a HUGE fan of The Last of Us, and was absolutely terrified to play this game due to all the rage I saw online before it's release. I avoided all spoilers and was able to play the game fresh, and found that although I could completely understand the upset - THAT WAS THE WHOLE POINT. The game achieved what it wanted to do, make us mad, revengeful, hateful, and then it masterfully, through carefully crafted story telling, makes you do what you never thought you could after that fateful moment - have empathy.
The other comments I see is about the LGBT themes this game has. I despise PC culture personally, and I was shocked to find that this rage, for once, was unfounded. This is a game that finally DOES NOT shove it in your face and simply makes this a part of these characters, not their entire character arc like most media unfortunately seems to hone in on.
The game play was fantastic, the story kept me on edge throughout its entirety, and the graphics were the best Naughty Dog has ever produced.
Give this a go and go into it subjectively.
