It was fun, morally ambiguous, yes, but it made you think.The second installment is just about revenge and how bad it is. This is not what a sequel should've been about. Not for The last of us.It is just a bad game for the fans. Sure the critics loved it. I and a lot of others did not. I am glad that I haven't bought this game. I would've cut the disk in half after Joel's death. I watched the game on twitch. I felt so disapointed and empty at Joel's meaningless death that the rest of the twitch was like a bad dream.Being forced to play his killer in a futile attempt to make us "feel" her distress is simply not working. It fails miserably at any attempts to feel sympathy or understanding (or at least accept). It would have worked out better IF we would have played her from the begining and IF it had given us the choice of either killing Joel or let him live. For me, the game, story wise, is just a piece of BS.</blockquote>
