Whelp, back to slogging through TLoU. It really feels more like a chore than fun. It's ironic considering how much I enjoyed Uncharted.
Speaking of which, my friend is playing Tomb Raider. He is one of those who didn't like the gameplay mechanics of Uncharted. And as I predicted, he is enjoying Tomb Raider a lot. And also as I predicted, he just thinks Lara is "more fun" to play than Drake. This is laughably ridiculous to me, because both games have such similar gameplay mechanics, from the shooting and cover system, the dodge/evade, to the climbing and traversing. The biggest difference between the two is that Lara has a bow which is totally badass and the bow introduces some cool interactions, but the two games share way more in common than my friend wants to admit.
