6. There Are So Many Surprises (Even With The "Leaks")

Speaking of surprises, it's impossible to talk about The Last of Us 2 without addressing the leaks, and now having retroactively looked at what got out there, I can only say this game is so much more than the couple of context-free moments that might have made their way online.

This isn't an experience you can sum up in a handful of bullet points; it's a 20-plus hour event filled to the brim with memorable moments and surprises, and even the things you think you know, you don't fully.

It's not a story that can be spoiled by knowing what's coming, because it's not a narrative so thin to rely solely on twists or 'gotcha!' moments. Also, not everything you read is to be believed.
