A rather boring movie with... not terrible gameplay to accompany it.

I do wish that The Last of Us didn't oversaturate the gaming world with "white protagonist loves his daughter" stories so strongly, but what can you do. The game was very technically impressive at the time and there's some good voice acting and set pieces, but I think the game really struggles in the middle. Nothing in the middle ever really feels like it matters, it's just all this interchangeable blob of "stuff that happened so we could grow closer." The only big game changer is the ending of the game.

Not a bad game, but pretty overrated in my honest opinion.
