People critizing TLOU gameplay. Guys, TLOU is not meant to be 100% stealth all the time. If you're playing obessionally like this you're a making a disservice to yourself. The game also is not meant to be played on normal or easier because it's meant to be challenging. In normal everything is too easy and it doesn't show the greatness of the gameplay. TLOU was meant to play like how they showed in that E3 2012 demo, or like they showed TLOU 2 in E3 2018. It's meant to be played with a mix of stealth and survival action where you are inevitably exposed and you have to improvise in real time to win the fight. It's when the gameplay becomes a more realistic RE4 style town at the beginning gameplay. You have to use the very few bullets, items, you have while running, hiding, and punching people in excellent designed areas where you have to think what to do next.

There are games that harder difficulty crashes the gameplay and make them less fun like Uncharted, The Witcher 3, Horizon Zero Dawn or recently Jedi Fallen Order, and then, there are other games like Bloodborne, God of War, Devil May Cry, Monster Hunter World and yes, TLOU, that higher difficulty levels improve vastly the experience of the gameplay.

I won't agree ever with people saying TLOU has bad gameplay. In my experience, people that say that just didn't played the game like it was meant to be experienced in my opinion. And I know, I know, everyone plays like he/she wants, but every game has an ideal way of play them.
