I REFUSED TO LOOK AT ANY LEAKS BEFORE PLAYING AND I LOVED IT!!
The story makes sense! Its true, its dark, realistic and its explores so many gritty and real themes. Like it says on the game case, it's a REVENGE story, not another cash-grab sequel. Everything that happens in the story happens for a REASON.
This game looks INCREDIBLE! I played this on the original PS4 and it shocked me how polished and beautiful it was. Definitely one of the best looking games out there.
The gameplay is very similar to the first game but feels quite a lot more polished. And the game is just so much more brutal than the last.
This game is already in the top 5 games on PS4 for me and I will always stand by that.
The writing is amazing, the characters engaging, the way violence is depicted is unlike any game I've played, and last but not least the story is memorable. If you were on the fence about this game, give it a shot with an open mind. You might just be like me and absolutely love it.
This game is a master class of storytelling, character creation, paradigm shifting... all wrapped in a beautiful shell. No other game had ever made me throw the control away because I simply couldn't decide which character to hurt. And that's the whole point: this game makes us question violence in games and the futility of violence in general as a response to conflict. If nothing else, just for that, it deserves every recognition in the world.
The way it introduces the different characters and makes you realise that your antagonist may be someone else's protagonist, is flawless.
The characters are full of life and truth. They're believable and 3D, not flat archetypes.
I could go on and on. And I genuinely feel sorry for those who feel disappointed by this game. I honestly believe they missed the whole point of it.
10/10.
But you cannot deny how beautiful and engaging this game actually is. This game did something most games before have never actually touched upon and used its medium in a clever way. Trust me when I say in 5 to 10 years time, people will look back and say this game was severely misunderstood.
Most people get what this game was going for, they just don't want to except it (yet)....

Ellie: You're such an asshole!
Joel: I'm not trying to...
Ellie: I was supposed to die in that hospital. My life would've fucking mattered. But you took that from me.
[Joel expresses his guilt for saving Ellie]
Joel: If somehow the Lord gave me a second chance at that moment... I would do it all over again.
Ellie: Yeah... I just... I don't think I can ever forgive you for that. But I would like to try.
Joel: I'd like that.
Ellie: Okay. I'll see you around.
Joel: Yep.
