If you hate the game, you didn't get it, from the flashbacks to the ending, the true theme wasn't revenge, it was forgiveness, no other game I've played in years has been as powerful, emotional, and thought provoking in its plot, and the gameplay and world took everything great about the original and expanded on it, as any sequel should. The game is a masterpiece and I encourage everyone to play it if they are fans of the series or stealth/adventure/survival horror genres.
