Why The Last of Us Part 2 is receiving so much hate yet it gets a solid 10/10 for many?

I'm thinking they're not a fan of its franchise and they think that the story is trash. I knew this game would turn out great, but others think otherwise.

The 10/10 scores are paid for,
Sony was actually suppressing bad reviews with false copyright strikes ahead of game launch. The main reason why people don't like the story is they killed off the main character in the last game in a way that doesn't make sense - Joel's wariness of other people is heavily emphasized in the original game and yet here he just freely lets in the group that murders him, even telling them his real name and where their base is. It feels contrived and inauthentic.

@plungesponge I can really see that, but you should know that some people don't have the game yet, wanting to see what's next, and this would throw everyone off.
