( Notes on The Last of Us, Part II. )
My controversial videogame opinion is that The Last of Us, Part II is fine. It's not a blight on the face of videogames. It's not a life-changing masterpiece. It's not somehow too bleak to justify its existence; I really disliked the 'this game is very dark, therefore it's Not The Game We Need Right Now and nobody could possibly appreciate it' response from some critical outlets. It's a good, solid game that tells the story it sets out to, and does it well, but isn't quite as good as the original.
I don't adore The Last of Us, Part II, but I like it a fair bit and I find it very immersive. I can understand why people dislike it, but it doesn't deserve the vicious hatred it's received. I'm glad I decided to replay.
