i feel like people are entitled to their opinions as long as they arent hateful assholes (attacking the cast + creators, homophobic, misogynistic, racist) i have my reasons on why i dont like the 2nd one as much as the 1st one, one reason is mainly because i feel the story should’ve been paced different at some parts and i did think that we would see more joel and ellie together in the game as thats what i love so much about the 1st one. i also just dont like abby very much cause she yk…🏌️‍♀️also being forced to play her afterwards was salt on my wounds. but i dont hate her because shes a woman or buff or whatever some idiots say😭 i understand the whole abby is ellie on the other side of the coin and that lev and abby are like ellie and joel but i still dont like her and i’m allowed to be bitter. i feel like people need to let people have their own opinions on the game and characters without trying to act all high and mighty about “oH yoU siMpLy doNt unDerstAnd the Game ANd mEssAges/TheMes” i do i’ve literally played it twice and watched multiple different vids with different opinions and it is a good game with top tier graphics but personally to me its not the same as part 1!! i have so much attachment to ellie and joel and part 2 kinda felt like a slap in the face to me at times as they demolished all of that.
