My current setup is simply too puny to run Alyx well in the more frenetic later chapters of the game, but what I have seen so far is great, well worth the price even to get to play thus far, I can't wait to return to this game.

I was surprised to come back to the game that started this series after playing the next two games and realizing that I no longer liked this version much at all, as I had immensely enjoyed it when it first came out.

The first level is an incredible way to experience Tetris, the rest are trite at best and frustrating at worst.

I found the tone and use of cutscenes to be just baffling. A shame because there seems to be the skeleton of a nice mobile puzzle game here.

The first time I got my heart broken.

The most moving game I have ever played.

I'd like to share my favorite quote from a review of this game that I otherwise don't agree with (https://www.quartertothree.com/fp/2013/06/12/the-last-of-us-has-real-heart-but-not-much-else/): The central question of The Last of Us is, “How do you demonstrate that you love your daughter more than all the world?”
