Zarmena writes… Regardless of being an enormous fan of the sequence (and sure, The Final of Us II is a wonderful recreation – struggle me), I simply don’t perceive the purpose of this remake. It’s practically a decade-old recreation (holy shhhh, the place did time go?) and one that everybody and their grandma have already performed on the PS3 and PS4.
