(Spoiler) Terrible story and that's the only reason I bought the game. We are forced to play from a new character's perspective after they killed off the most important one in the DUMBEST way while slowly destroying the other. They even have a pregnant woman fighting...common sense went out the window with this one sadly. I'm so sad they destroyed my favorite game with part II and it doesn't have factions...years later...still waiting. The good parts of this game (the gameplay) couldn't save it and there is too much boring looting. After beating it once, I tried to play it again on a higher difficulty because the gameplay is good but the terrible story had me skipping every single cutscene and eventually I just stopped playing. It ain't worth it. Shame on Naughty Dog for forcing trash down our throats. But most importantly shame on videogame websites giving this trash high scores. I'm never preordering a ND game again after this one.
