An interactive movie needs at least an interesting story and lovable characters. This story presentation and acting is on the level of The Walking Dead TV-series, which I admit is impressive coming from a game developer, but it's sadly also more pretentious and without lovable characters. I hate that kid already and I dislike the man too and I feel no connection whatsoever.

Now Rockstar and John Marston on the other hand...

It's almost comical to see gamers go wild over a clip that looks like a regular TV-show.

The way you feel about Oblivion is the way many feel about a title like this (and many disagree with both opinions). Still, just because you feel nothing for these characters doesn't mean that's the consensus (which judging from the majority of internet chatter, it disagrees with you entirely). Frankly, I wasn't that impacted by John Marston, but that doesn't mean he was a fogettable character.

Seems like whenever you comment on these types of games, you sound more bitter than objective.

Yeah I am bitter because my fellow gamers are eating crap when they could eat milk and honey.

Objectively speaking, John Marston slays these characters. I truly do not believe people actually feel a yota for these two, they just pretend they do because they want so badly to have another great Sony game.

The biggest reason you hear all praise on the internet for Ellie and this game is because it's a Sony exclusive. That's not objective.
