I don't understand that line of thought, just because it's built really well doesn't male it instantly a masterpiece. Nioh 2 is built extremly well, even better than the original but it fails at so much and falls so short from the original masterpiece and same with this sure a game can be so good in some aspects that it outshines the bad, The Witcher 3 at release or Ghost of Tsushima for example but TLOU2 has so many flaws, the progression hit mid game for one thing, the worst pacing in a game since.... dammit, I can't even remember anything, the story inconsistencies and the massive gap between the good writing and the bad writing. The Ai being mindless after you realise it's just an illusion of extra animations and the inconsistency in level design throughout the game which feeds back into the awful, pacing for another. You still don't see these issues? And that's before the story fuck ups and these kills that try to be emotional and shocking but you don't know who you're even killing or why you should care until after... okay, I'm not getting into the story and characters, there is too much wrong but you really don't see them? Did you play in Spanish? Did that help mask sone of the issues if you did? I genuinely don't understand how people can see this game as a 10 but calling it a masterpiece is another thing entirely, I'd have loved to have my playthrough be as good as yours was, I envy ya, man. |
It's quite amusing to see you go after people that like this game but you gotta remember that taste is subjective man.
For me TLOU2 is without a doubt the best 1st party title from Sony this generation. And that's even without the missing Factions multiplayer that made the first game become my overall favorite game of last generation.
All games have strengths and weaknesses. The Witcher 3 has awful combat and Ghost of Tsushima shares many of Assassin's Creed's weaknesses. But I fully understand that these games are someone else's favorites.
I get it. You really don't like the story in TLOU2 and that's fine. Other people do though and with time I hope you'll be able to somehow come to terms with that.
