The narrative choices that didn't work in TLOU2 COULD have worked had they been arranged differently.
I agree with this. SPOILERS
Just my opinion but Joel's death and the reason why he was killed happened way too early. I think having Abby as an ally early on and then have the reveal of who caused her father's death and the rising tension as she is piecing the story together would have made for a better experience.

**SPOILERS****
No offense, but that idea completely misses what the story was doing in terms of subverting expectations, thus shocking and putting you into the mindless rage Ellie feels and then showing you the larger social cost and flaw in that through Abby and her party's progressive humanization as characters and how those actions(starting with Joel) sets off cycles of retaliatory violence and deepened balkanizing, swallowing up innocent people in it's wake and crushing any hope for humanity or peace under it's boot.
