This is relevant to my interests because I finally shelled out for a PS4 a couple of weeks ago after spending the entirety of my twenties denying myself any kind of console out of… I really dunno, puritanism? Anyway I’ve been reading a bunch of game reviews lately and this is the first one to have made me laugh, so, thanks! D2 is going on my wish list right now.

Although, I just finished The Last of Us and Left Behind and now I’m quite seriously concerned that I might never play another game as good? I mean, I hadn’t realised what games were capable of in terms of storytelling and, like, actual grown up pathos, and I think Ellie turned out to be one of my favourite characters ever written into existence in any medium, which I was not prepared for. I started playing Assassin’s Creed: BF the next day, and after 20 minutes with the main dude I was all FUCK YOU YOU’RE NOT ELLIE and shut it off again and returned to gazing adoringly/folornly at my TLOU disc box instead. (Now I’m on GTA V and half-heartedly throwing dollar bills at strippers to work out my own feelingz of soul-deadness in this empty, post Ellie world.)

PS you guys sob at the moving bits of game storylines too right? It’s not just me?
