The Last of Us is a good game…nothing more, nothing less

The game didn't make me like Ellie enough to choose her over the world. Don't get me wrong, she was a good character, but not worth throwing the entire human race out the window. Taking the choice away from the player and making me act out a cause I didn't believe in placed story over gameplay, which is always a bad thing in my opinion.

The game was never about you making choices the entire time and you expected that to change at that moment?

Ok...

I didn't say I expected to given the choice, but I would've had a higher opinion of the game if it hadn't funnelled me down a path I didn't want to take in the final act. Much like I didn't expect Mario 3D World to have more open stages, but I would've had a higher opinion of it than I did.

And for the record, I still rank TLOU as my #3 game of 2013, so it's not like I hate it.
