Was this the must overhated game of all time? Even with it's flaws and predicable plot it is far from a bad game. At least it's better than everything Naughty Dog did in the last decade.

No. It's all well and good to try something different, but it has to work. Interactions with Trico were too obtuse, and I don't know what a good compromise is.

Up there, for sure. From the hate it got you wouldn't know it's one of the best games ever made.

Nice way of saying filtered. TLG doesn't have many flaws especially from a design perspective. It's essentially just a re-imagined version of ICO, so its so called 'flaws' are just filtered retards who can no longer connect with an early PS2-era design philosophy.
If TLG came out when the PS3 was launched, I can almost guarantee you it would have received universal praise. This was still a time where game design wasn't strictly a by-the-numbers consumer product made on a manufacturing line, and people still played video games to experience adventures without expecting rewards like trophies and seeing XP/progression bars.
TLG is a game about a journey, and what an incredible journey it is. You can't find many games like it, and it's telling that the few that you can are either from the same creator or from a by-gone era. I'm genuinely glad Uncle Timmy is bankrolling Ueda's next game, because games like this just simply don't have a market anymore (costs too much to make with the best case scenario being to break even).

Good fucking projection. Most PS2 era philosophy aged like fine wine and if TLG launched in PS3 days it would floop even harder.

i'm thinking TLOU2 is more overhated, OP.

It's still well above the average game.

It's flawed but only because you can tell they'd taken too long working on it.
That which is there bears a certain resentment for the effort necessary.

I don't care how pretty and artsy it is the gameplay sucks

it's a pretty cool game, but it sure as hell wasn't worth $60.

Honestly, it's up there for my favorite game alongside Bloodborne on the PS4. If you liked Ico, there's no reason why you wouldn't like TGL. But not many people would be able to get into Ico. Shadow of the Colossus was an epic huge boss rush simulator, so it's an easier sell. TLG feels like an expansion of Ico.
