It was refreshing to experience a game that had a mature, complex and multifaceted story that seemed to understand its audience was adults. Are there any more games like this?

Yes. A lot of games but many of them aren't action/adventure. A plague tale is very close to the last of us in tone and storytelling , Disco Eylsum (Lots of reading but it is incredibly well written), spec ops: the line ( I would recommend not reading too much the story has some very good things that could be spoiled), Hellblade senua's sacrifice (headphones recommend), Witcher 3 (If you want open world fantasy).

A plague tale was so good. The gameplay is good, the story is good, and the sequel is good. The first one (Innocence) has been free on epic games several times. If you have it, it's worth going in blind.
