SkillUp didn't like the gameplay of the original TLOU. He thought it was okay at best. Same here. That's why the advancements of the sequel are not enough for him, and I doubt it will be for me either.
And like him I'm also quite bothered when I can't believe the character's actions and motivations. But a lot of people don't have a problem with things like that.

This is not a case a where hundred reviewers have been bribed.
They just appreciate certain things more than I do, and that's fine.

Most of the reviews I saw are not very critical as SkillUp. But we can't really prove if reviewers were paid to give these 10/10s.

Regardless, it's evident that Druckmann messed with the things that worked in the previous game's story. Now I've seen the leaks so I know as much as what could happen the game. I won't discuss that in detail here. Based on what SkillUp said, that this turned into a grimdark revenge story devoid of any light, it pretty much confirms the biggest fear I had in the leak.

So Sony bought 80+ reviewers just as they also bought 100+ developers? They are really putting the money on playstation.

And thank god we have this sole beackon of morality in SkillUp to speak up.
