I don’t usually do what feels like a game “review” because I’m not a critic, and I don’t like putting out criticism of other game developers’ work.
The Last of Us Part II is an exception, though, because I love basically everything about it, and in an environment where its team is getting a lot of over-the-top hate, I feel like I have to speak up about why I think it works, and why I think it’s important.
This video is basically a monologue, but I get into a broader discussion with the chat here:
