I really enjoyed the first Last of Us game. I think the story was perfect, but at times the game play was lacking a bit. However, overall, I would rate the first game a 10/10. I would give it an A+ for the story and a B for the game play.
Now to the second game. I'm not finished with it, so maybe my opinion could change once I've completed it. Here's what I like and dislike. The second game improves a lot on the game play. It's way more fun to play and there's a little more variety on how you can take out your foes. The levels are also a lot larger. If you've played Uncharted 4 or Uncharted The Lost Legacy then you'll be familiar with how these mini open worlds work. Basically, you're put in this extremely large map giving you the feel of freedom. It's fun to explore and find items, but there are times when there's nothing interesting to find. You're just in this large map and walking around with really nothing interesting to see, so it works and at times it doesn't. There are more chances to stealth kill enemies and although I've never tried, I'm sure you can sneak past some without even engaging in combat. The story is a downgrade from the first game. There's just to much happening. Naughty Dog should have followed the KISS method. Keep It Simple Stupid. Overall, the story isn't too bad. I feel like the Last of Us and the Last of Us 2 flipped. While the first Last of Us had an A+ story and B game play, in the Last of Us 2 the game play is an A, but the story is a B. I would definitely play this game again and would recommend it to anyone who enjoyed the first game. Even if you didn't play the first game and you just love horror then you'll enjoy this game. I can't count how many times I felt tense and terrified after getting swarmed by a hoard of infected and didn't know which way to go because everything was so dark and some of the places look like mazes. It's so freaky when you're in a dark building and you hear the infected, but the only light you have is your flashlight which only shines light about 2 feet ahead of you. Then you check your ammo and you realize you're screwed. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I feel like if they moved events around it would have been better for story and pacing.
Imagine you start off in abby's flashback, leading up to the hospital deaths which is followed by Joel's version of the events to really drive it home. If they started off with making the player try to sympathize and get to know abby it would have been better imo. --- I want you to grab your nuts. Grab your balls.

Abby near the end of the story was basically a female Joel, so that parallel worked there when Ellie was chasing them.
