People giving this game low ratings are basing their judgment purely on the connections they had to characters in the first game, however this game is just amazing when you don’t focus on that. The story is great and even thought most people don’t like Abby, I personally became a fan of hers after playing her for half the game. Equally Ellie is an awesome character too they are just very different people. The action is also great focusing more on the threat of living people rather than the infected which I think helped improve this game from the first. I would highly recommend this game to anyone.
