Part 2/8:
Ryan begins by emphasizing the overdue praise that Ghost of Tsushima has received since its release. The game boasts the highest user ratings in PS4 exclusive history, with a stellar 9.3 score on Metacritic, and has sold out nearly everywhere. In stark contrast, The Last of Us Part II remains largely stuck on shelves, with many storefronts still displaying copies, despite its polarizing reception.
Ryan questions the mainstream media's narrative, pointing out that while Ghost of Tsushima has been celebrated, The Last of Us Part II has faced significant criticism and review bombing—yet these negative reviews are often dismissed or glossed over by journalists.
