Still, even if you dislike it, you can't say the gameplay was any worse than "average", and the presentation values at the time were unquestionably at the top of the pack. At worst, it's good. It's much more reasonable and closer to reality to say it's game of the decade than to say it sucks or is bad.

As I mentioned, I've been recently trying to finish TLoU because of all the kudos it's been getting as "a game of the decade" candidate, so that's why it's fresh in my mind.
Also, I can write two thousands words about anything. I'm just naturally verbose.
It's actually harder for me to write anything short.
