The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
1-2 hours every couple of days is my current pace, at this rate it's going to be a while before I finish. I would play more if work didn't get in the way, but truthfully this game is so tense/emotional that I don't know if my delicate ass could sustain a faster pace....
Only about 5 hours in (I think) but loving it thus far
Though I'm still gutted about losing Joel. That's the part that pissed me off when I read the spoilers. Even before I read the leaks, I had a feeling he might get killed off, but the way he went out was brutal and I personally loved his character. In some ways I'm still pissed at myself for reading the leaks, but I also think I would have been pretty crushed/pissed if I went in cold.....
but when it was over with I was glad it’d been that way. I like that you spend long enough sections of game with a different perspective, or in a different time period, for the experience to change the nature of your emotional ties. I think I would have been a lot more frustrated with that section if I was only playing in shorter bursts though.

I can understand why some fans are upset with this story choice, but a sequel wouldn't exist without his death being the major catalyst. I won't spoil later sections of the game, but his death (both the lead up to it and the fall out afterwards), has so much more meaning for every character.

I would understand being upset with the story choices if they weren't justified and done well. The characters' motivations are all extremely understandable.

This. A great reminder of why a plot synopsis never tells the full story for anything.
Agree 100%, yet another reason why I need to pick up the pace a bit. I'm loving the game thus far, just 5 hours in. Trying to keep faith in how the story will unfold!
Ellie’s journey in this game is captured in the first two lines of Future Days. If I ever was to lose you, I’d surely lose myself. She loses Joel, and for a log while...she does. I sincerely hope they deliver a third installment
