Pretty much as dark and depressing as the medium gets, and the overall tragedy of this story and these characters will stick with me for a while. (Cards on the table - the first game's ending rubbed the wrong way and the inciting incident in this one made all kinds of sense to me.) Just an almost overwhelming sadness stemming from moments both big and small, which, yeah - well done, Naughty Dog. Gameplay's a secondary concern here and was, I dunno, adequate? (Survival horror still isn't my bag; your mileage may vary.)
