> like it was a TV show

It was plotted like a TV show and so rather than feeling fresh, I felt like I already knew what would happen. It was too predictable.

For example, at one point Ellie gets caught and wakes up in a cage. I couldn't help but roll my eyes and thing "gee, I wonder if she'll escape".

Like I said in another comment, I think the hype surrounding the game had set my expectations way too high and I ended up being disappointed in what was really a good game.
