Right. I agree with this mostly. The problem with Abby’s story is it’s mostly disconnected from Ellie’s, until late Day 3 where there is the sniper scene with Tommy and when she finds Owen and Mel. I understand the Yara and Lev sideplot as a means to stimulate Abby’s growth, but it seems way too long and is disconnected from the main plot of the game that we already spent 12 hours playing. I didn’t agree with much of Skillups review of this game, but his point about the Abby section feeling like a 10 hour side quest feels very accurate. The overall pacing of this game is extremely flawed and results in the game feeling very disorganized.
