I find TLoU pretty overrated, having said that it is still a very good game.

Maybe it just comes down to the OP's preferances.

To be fair.... I dont enjoy most zelda games, even though I know theres plenty of people that are rather fond of them.
Zelda can be pretty "hit or miss" imo, and yet it always get high scores on metacritic, because? I dont know.

Same with Smash Bro's..... it feels more like a "party" game than a actual fighter.
And its just a cluttered mess, with online being a borderline joke.
Yet it sells millions and is beloved by alot of people.

Same with Mario Party... those games just arnt my thing.

I rather dislike how much Super Mario 3D world, was focused around a "party" experiance with multiple people playing.
I've always been vocal on this issue, I dislike when games focus on being playable by like 4-8 ppl in couch co-op, instead of just focusing on a fantastic single player element. Like if the couch co-op, comes at the cost of single player elements, its a fail.


I basically feel saying what OP does about TLoU, is more controversial than what I just said above.

Preferences is a real thing for sure.  I pretty much disagree with everything you said above, which is fine.  Everybody is different.  I personally think RDR2, GTA (all of them) and Bioshock are all trash.  I also loathe Sekiro, despite loving souls.  So I can relate to having an opinion that seems crazy.  I can't help how I feel, nor can anybody else.

On a side note, I have yet to play a Zelda 2p0game that I didn't think was amazing, except the DS games, those are terrible.

Haha yeah that game feels totally different!

After beating a boss in Dark Souls i get instant happy feelings while after beating a boss in Sekiro i get the feeling of "good lord it is over, now i need to calm down or i might get a heartattack".

I have played both TLOU and Detroit to their end and you could not be so far off in your statement.

I can see your comparison with the prologue of the TLOU, but without giving anything away, it's 1000% different after that from Detroit.

TLOU is one of my favorite games of all time, play it on hard with hints off, it's just one amazing game.

This coming from someone who should be a jaded gamer since I have been playing from the start, Sears Pong Console anyone?

I would def try again, especially with TLOU2 around the corner.

It's more like Resident Evil 4 with some sneaking and a good story.

Not the or one of the greatest game of all time like many claim but it's good.

I quit watching a porn movie after 1 min because the main protagonist was still waiting for the pizza guy or girl.

I saw that one.

Spoiler!
They didn't have money, but would do ANYTHING to pay for that pizza.

And in the end everybody just forgets about the pizza, very bad acting I would say.

I know right?!

Spoiler!
The pizza, once the focal point of the plot, going so far as to mention multiple times that it has extra sausage, is left completely in the lurch. Lazy.

First 5 minutes you're essentially still in a cutscene.
Takes about 10-15 mins before the game starts.

Even 10-15 minutes isn't nearly enough to properly gauge TLOU. I'd say around 3 hours. By then, the combat, stealth elements, crafting, story, and general pacing have revealed themselves to a reasonable extent. As for the OP's opinion, it should be completely disregarded.
