    Un excelente videojuego en calidad gráfica, jugabilidad, mecánicas, y duración. Aún así se queda corto en la narrativa de su historia donde el manejo, de sus personajes no fue el correcto. Provocando el disgusto de las personas

    Meu ponto de vista
    História da Ellie nota 1
    História da Abby nota 9
    História do jogo nota 5
    Gráficos nota 10
    Jogabilidade nota 8
    NOTA FINAL DO JOGO 6,6

    Explicando meu ponto de vista
    A história da Ellie é ruim, personagem mimada que sempre toma as piores decisões possíveis e que por conta disso consequências ruins acontecem.
    A história da Abby é excelente, vingou a morte do pai e poupou as pessoas que não tinham nada com isso, também agiu corretamente com as crianças que salvaram a vida dela.
    A história do jogo seria melhor se terminasse após a Abby encontrar a Ellie no teatro e se enfrentarem com cada uma seguindo seu rumo.
    Os gráficos são excelentes e muito bem trabalhado. O nível de detalhes gráficos no jogo é impecável.
    Jogabilidade poderia ser melhor, a troca de armas é lenta e a mobilidade é meio travada tendo momentos que o personagem precisa contornar um obstáculo da altura do joelho dele pra poder chegar a determinado lugar, mas teve uma evolução da jogabilidade em relação ao primeiro jogo.
    Nota final ficou a média de todas as notas.    … Expand

    Unfortunately the game has become heavily review-bombed (on both ends), diminishing the value of user scores significantly. In my opinion this is a shame as user scores used to be something I always payed attention to when buying games.

In my opinion this is a shame as user scores used to be something I always payed attention to when buying games.

    The story of the game is very good. The creative direction it took is absolutely justified considering the ending of "Last of Us I", where the protagonist effectively becomes the antagonist of the story pretty much wiping out an entire faction/hospital dedicated to helping humanity fight the virus. Creating a sequel around the consequences of Joel's actions there is a really good starting point. Playing characters from both sides adds depth to the story and you'll start questioning the actions of your previously favourite characters soon enough - without either side acting out of character.

    The gameplay does not differ much from "Last of Us Part I". Stealth is still massively rewarded on high difficulties as you can get heavily punished for little mistakes in open combat. Lower difficulties do not punish you for brute forcing your way through the encounters as much. Open areas are almost always accompanied by dialog making them less monotonous while exploring or searching for collectibles.
    The upgrade system has not changed much

    My biggest problem with the game is the actual length of the game and replay value. You can finish the game within 15 hours and since it is heavily carried by the story and character development a second playtrough (needed for platinum) felt really boring. It probably gets replay value after putting it away for a year tho'.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I both can and can not understand the hate this game gets. In a world where almost every game has predatory monetization, single-player story-based games can still provide riveting classic experiences. However, so many games are predictable and dry. They don't introduce anything new or out of the ordinary. Joel was a remarkable character and I was so disappointed to see him die, but in hindsight, it was such a traumatic experience that it only proves to me what a fantastic job they did with the franchise. When he was dead I wanted revenge, that revenge is ingrained in us in all of media, entertainment, and politics, etc. But what I found remarkable about The Last of Us is that it is both literal (the last humans on earth) and it is about something metaphysical, the last bit of our humanity, our consciousness, our ethics, etc. What separates us from the undead or animals is a moving target, a slow decaying gradient of ethics. Nobody is innocent anymore, NONE of us could make the right decisions anymore. Joel is not innocent, we can not decide who deserves to live and die in a world where people have such innate trauma that they can't possibly get by without making horrible choices. The only innocents died early. The game slowly made me go from that Pulp Fiction-type revenge to remorse, then to apathy, then to slowly care for his killer. By the end of the game I did not know who I wanted to live and who I wanted to die. I just saw this as a masterpiece in all facets. When what I want in a story doesn't **** matter, I am engaged the most because anything could happen. I loved this game. It may in time pass TLOU 1 in my rankings. Right now it is at maybe my 5-10th favorite game of all time. People love to hate this game, and I hope they re-look at it in a few years.… Expand

However, this is still an amazing title from Naughty Dog, and a true technical showcase for not only the PS4 but for gaming as a whole. The breathtaking visuals stand tall amongst many "next gen" entries, and the layer of polish that comes from a 6-year long development process is much appreciated and apparent. Exploration is improved upon with huge, sweeping areas that contain all kinds of collectibles and resources to gather for your next combat encounter. Combat itself feels phenomenal, with immense layers of depth and freedom for any specific playstyle. The soundtrack is once again perfectly atmospheric and fitting, serving as an extension of the music found in the first game. Where this game fails to be a true masterpiece is in its narrative. This is a disheartening, disgusting, and unnecessary story that should have never been told. The Last of Us stood on its own two feet as a perfect gem, not needing a sequel or any more content. Each character from the first title has been stripped of their soul and humanity, leaving this game feeling hollow and empty by the end rather than climactic and beautiful. While I am disappointed by the choices made by the producers and developers, I would be a liar if I said that this was truly a horrible game that was lacking in any other aspect. The Last of Us goes out with a whimper after an amazing ride. I hope Part III never comes.… Expand

I gotta say the series is a masterpiece in every aspect. I don't plan on d*ckriding here, whatever I say will be an objectively opinion. The game is surely for those who can withstand dark and bloody scenes. The plot may have some minor holes, but trust me you won't even understand them while playing. It's a shame 68k people (at the time this rating is being written) are rating the game with 5 and less. Why they do so? Because there is a scene with people of the same gender kissing etc, etc. These people didn't even begin to think that the people that used to live in a post-apocalyptic world wouldn't care less if the person they love and want is from the same gender or if others will care about it. And that's beautiful and real. They want to feel even a little bit better in any way, even if that means something like that I just mentioned or doing dr*gs etc. The game has a plot that makes you think like you are a character inside the game and it shows you the point of view of every single one of them. At some point in the game when I got bit by a clicker and died by mine own mistake I, myself flinched like I had felt the bite, I understood that I had reached the point that I felt like I was in the game. It doesn't leave any question marks about how did this or that happen. It explains and shows you everything. The graphics are stunning especially if you play the game in a good monitor or TV. The physics left me speechless, either if it had to do with combat or with the nature or with any little - insignificant for other games - detail. I was left with my jaw down many times from the details or the story too. Of course deaths happen like in the 1st game of The Last Of Us. And people have no right rating the game with 5 and lower grades because they didn't want a death of a whatever-charachter to happen. That disgusts me. If anyone that has played the 1st game but not the 2nd reads this, please go and play it. It can alter your whole brain chemistry in a beautiful and amazing way. It can mature you. It didn't happen with me, because this special place in my heart belongs to a completely different show. Back to the game, I can understand why so many people loved it, because I do now too, but I don't plan on making anyone play it by force or spam them about it. Their loss. It's a game that you have to be mature to understand, accept and comprehend whatever message it's passing onto you. I hope my review was helpful and...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It is neither as good nor as bad as people think. A bad narration with some accidentally made good scenes and a dishonorable death of a character. Certain scenes feel very shoehorned and one revelation even suffers from trying to be super politically correct so the prancing around it with the dialogue by the oh so tolerant characters makes it very hard to watch the scene and properly deduce what they want to say because they expect you in the first place to have the same view towards it so it becomes very confusing with its presentation. Normally I am against the "this game is too long" argument but I have to agree. It is not terribly long but it does not fit the game to be as long as it is.… Expand

    I was on the fence about TLOU2. Initially due to the negative reviews, but then I stumbled across some 'grounded' playthrough and it peaked my interest.

    If you are on the fence as I was, this story was amazing. It's not a "bad guy does something so you need to get revenge" story. It's so much deeper, so many layers. Without spoiling it, I was torn half way through the story, it forces you to consider your decisions and the rippling effect. This game left me looking forward to the 3rd chapter in the series if we are lucky to get one.

    I just finished the game earlier today, felt I needed to leave a review because I initially read the negative reviews here and needed to shed some light for those considering playing this game.    … Expand

    Some of the best writing not only in video games, but in media in general. Just like in film, the story is being told to us not made by us. There are no choices we as gamers get to make that will change the outcome. But, we are forced to participate in the events and so internalize them, making the emotional impacts much deeper. People looking for a power fantasy are playing the wrong game.

To be honest, even though I liked it a lot TLOU1 was not my favourite game of that generation, so my expectations were maybe not as high as a lot of other people for the second instalment of the franchise. That being said, I do not understand what is going on around this game. Finished it last night and absolutely loved it. Gameplay was fun and engaging, graphics were the definite best this console generation can offer, and definitely also some of the best out right now, for consoles or pc. Animation is beautiful, fluid and lifelike, the amount of realistic secondary movement goes to show the lengths the devs went to for this game. Story was engaging and heart breaking, characters very, VERY, well written and performed, all of it is truly believable, if maybe not entirely original. Yes, I am aware of all the online shenanigans regarding this game, and I truly do not get it. It seems a group of people feel entitled to having the devs create the game that they want without actually agreeing on what exactly that is. They want to feel good about the decisions made by the characters without realising that is not necessarily the point of telling a story. I have played the original TLOU years ago, and I remember feeling very conflicted about the decision the main character does at the end of it, this game made me feel exactly the same way throughout the whole 26ish hours of gameplay it took me to finish it. There are no perfect characters, there are no true morally flawless characters and I absolutely loved it. Reading through most of the user reviews in this website, and the comments made in other websites and social media I feel like a large majority of the negative reviews are just hate for the sake of hate, which is very ironic since it mirrors precisely one of the main points this game tries to bring across. Is there also hate speech against a perceived attempt at inclusion and diversity by the writers? Probably a portion of the negative reviews, yeah, but I feel that it is mostly just mob mentality, generally in social media, but also following a few select well known youtubers who are starting to sound more and more like egomaniacs completely detached from reality. And I say “perceived” attempt at inclusion and diversity, because that is precisely what it is, I did not feel for a single second that any of the characters or their backstories was in any way tacked on just for the sake of diversity.
    Bottom line is, the game is awesome, easily one of the best games I have ever played, polished to a incredible degree in every aspect of it, it definitely gathers all the good things naughty dog has learned throughout the years in one incredibly enjoyable package, thoroughly recommend it to fans of story driven action games. With this, we get to my second regret about this game, which is actually having played it. I now wish I could get my memory of it completely erased just so that I could enjoy it for the first time all over again.
    This game affected me so deeply that I’m not sure I can go back to playing other story driven games any time soon after playing TLOU2 without feeling like everything is subpar in comparison with it, so I think I will just do something I have never done before in my 25+ years of gaming, and start playing this again right away just so I can take in all the details that I might have missed the first time around.    … Expand

Combat and gameplay are similar to the first game, but is expanded in smart and intuitive ways. But the real standout is the story, and the way it unfolds. There is a point halfway through the game where the story takes a twist that I've never seen before in a game. Chances are you will feel frustrated and you will be reluctant to keep playing. This is intentional. When you get to that point (and you will know it when it happens), take a deep breath, and keep going. There is much more to the story than meets the eye.

    The hatred towards this game is baffling. I finished it two days ago, and I've been thinking about the ending ever since. What this game achieves with its narrative is remarkable, and absolutely elevates games as art. Those who hate the game either:

    1. Dislike the disturbing nature of the narrative (just how "Hereditary" and "It Comes At Night" were hated due to their dark endings).    The hatred towards this game is baffling. I finished it two days ago, and I've been thinking about the ending ever since. What this game achieves with its narrative is remarkable, and absolutely elevates games as art. Those who hate the game either:

    1. Dislike the disturbing nature of the narrative (just how "Hereditary" and "It Comes At Night" were hated due to their dark endings). This response is valid and makes sense, as art is ultimately subjective. If you don't like dark stories that examine the demons in us all, this game isn't for you. It was designed to make the player profoundly disturbed, and inverse the typical protagonist/antagonist dynamic. If you like black and white morality with clearly defined good guys and bad guys, this ain't for you. That said, if you enjoy stories with a realistic portrayal of morality that dwells in the grey, you'll love this game. I know players who disliked the game because of how it made them feel, and that's okay. The fact they felt disturbed means that the game succeeded in its narrative.

    2. Certain individuals have taken issue with the LGBTQ representation. I'm no bigot, but I do find it annoying when "SWJ" agenda is pushed in movies and games in an unnatural way. I can confidently say that TLOU2's inclusion of LGBTQ characters does not feel forced at all; it makes sense within the context of the story. The game shows rather than tells. It isn't "woke" propaganda; it simply has gay/bisexual characters, and subtly examines the hardships faced by trans individuals. It isn't the central theme of the game; just ancillary subplots. If you think this game is woke propaganda, you should take a long look inward and question your prejudices.

    3. Some people seem to have recognized the goal of the narrative, but feel like it ultimately failed to achieve what it was meant to achieve. Some claim that the narrative falls flat due to ludo-narrative dissonance. All I can say to these people is that I disagree. It hit me like a ton of bricks emotionally, and perfectly stuck the landing. As for ludo-narrative dissonance, well, the game tries to minimize that by humanizing the countless people you slaughter with excellent AI, dialogue, and actual names (something I've never seen before in a game). All of Naughty Dogs games suffer from ludo-narrative dissonance, as do many of the best games every made. And no, the theme of the game is not revenge; vengeance is simply the channel used to explore the true themes of TLOU2 - hatred, empathy, morality, and the lurking demons within every human being. It encourages us to consider that our concepts of justice are subjective, and without empathy, we're liable to confuse justice with cruelty. It's a profound lesson that applies to nearly all forms of human conflict, from war to revenge. There are no good guys and bad guys, just people who think they're doing the right thing out of anger and apathy.

    From what I can tell, these 3 criticisms sum up the critical response of users. To be honest, even if the story had failed for me, I would have still adored the game due to its FANTASTIC gameplay (which shines most on the "Survivor" difficulty). The animations and AI are state of the art (possibly the best of this generation), gunplay & melee feel weighty and realistic, and the addition of prone plus increased verticality greatly enhance the stealth gameplay. It's one of the most immersive survival stealth games I've ever played, as it takes the strengths of the first game and perfecting them. If you enjoy survival games like Resident Evil and stealth games like Metal Gear Solid, you'll probably love TLOU2's gameplay.

    I have very few complaints. While the ending is superb, I think they could have fleshed out some of the secondary characters more effectively. Only Ellie and Abby have defined character arcs. They did a fine job with the time that they had, but I feel the game would have benefited from a few additional hours, during which we played as Tommy, Jesse, Dina, and Lev, as it would have strengthened our connection to these characters. In terms of gameplay, I wish you could slide from sprinting to crouching, and the jump mechanic could have been improved. I know I'm nitpicking with these, but it would have made traversal a bit more fluid. There should have been an additional difficulty option, as I think the player has too much health (even on Survivor). It would have been nice to have a realistic damage system where you can only take a couple bullets before dying (even better, the players injuries should correspond to where they were hit). Additionally, they should have incorporated non-lethal approaches towards combat. Such features would have reduced the ludo-narrative dissonance substantially.

    Outside of these minor complaints, the game is near perfect, and may exceed TLOU1. 10/10, don't let the haters scare you away.    … Expand

    Antes de comentar sobre The Last Of Us Parte 2 vou fazer algumas ponderações sobre o primeiro jogo.

    Quando foi anunciado pela Naught Dog, que surfava na curva ascendente de popularidade devido ao sucesso da franquia Uncharted, os fãs e critica especializada ficaram cheios de expectativas, mesmo que o consenso fosse de que teríamos uma fusão de Uncharted com um universo de zumbis mesmo que nesse caso fossem uns zumbis diferentes.

    E as expectativas se cumpriram. è praticamente impossivel jogar The Last Of Us sem reconhecer o DNA criado por Uncharted, de maneira simplista poderiamos dizer sem medo que é um Uncharted de zumbis em um mundo pós apocalíptico. Segue o "template" Uncharted em outra ambientação/universo, algo como as series Fallout e Elder Scrolls da Bethesda.

    Porem a nova franquia se revelou ser muito mais do que apenas uma reutilização do Knowhow adquirido anteriormente e um projeto para ocupar o time secundário de desenvolvimento do estúdio.

    O primeiro jogo é extremamente habil em te fazer esquecer que o jogo foi produzido pelo mesmo estudio de Uncharted, não só pela ambientação, pós apocaliptica/pós pandemica como pelo seu enredo e ritmo. Se Uncharted é uma aventura frenética e divertida em locais exóticos de flora e arquiteturas exuberantes, sendo na minha opinião o melhor filme da sessão da tarde que poderia existir, The last of Us é um drama, sombrio e melancólico.

    No mundo de TLOU não ha a alegria, mesmo em momentos ensolarados o sol emite uma luz alaranjada como se estivesse em constante momento de por do sol, como se a luz sempre estivesse a desaparecer. E ao contrario de Uncharted o gameplay foca e incentiva a furtividade, os inimigos ou são contaminados transformados em aberrações ou humanos desprovidos de humanidade. O mundo se tornou um ambiente hostil, extremamente violento e essa violencia é exibida de forma crua sem rodeios ou romantização adolescente.

    Resultado, em meia hora de jogatina já não lembrava mais da relação genealógica de TLOU com Uncharted.

    Se analisando tecnicamente a Naught Dog não havia reinventado a roda em matéria de gamedesing, mecânicas ou construção de mundo, apesar de realizar um trabalho de excelente qualidade nesses quesitos, viria a marcar um profundo impacto com sua narrativa, desenvolvimento de personagens e como todos os elementos de desing e gameplay se integrariam criando um conjunto coeso e talvez sem precedentes na industria .

    E meu deus.....Não ha muito mais o que falar, goste ou não do jogo, não ha como reconhecer a ambição narrativa do mesmo. E a confirmação de que se trata de uma historia adulta e madura, no universo de TLOU não ha maniqueísmo, não existe preto e branco e sim uma imensa gradação de cinza.

    Vai ganhar o tão aclamado GOTY de 2020? Não sei. Merece? Certamente, não só como também o BAFTA o Oscar e o que mais puder ganhar de prêmios...

    Não gostar faz de vocÊ menos inteligente, menos culto, ou algo parecido? Não. Só faz de você alguém que não gostou de um jogo.

    Se o seu desgosto foi provocado por questões digamos, inclusivas, ou você é infantil, ou idiota.

    Como já disse antes acho que os dois jogos da franquia formam uma peça unica, mas confesso que a parte dois superou minhas expectativas.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I never write reviews, even if it is a game that I thoroughly enjoyed. However, I feel extremely compelled to do so because of all the backlash and negative reviews this game has received from its users.

    You cannot walk into this game with a closed mindset, expecting it to be an exact copy of its predecessor, where you will play as Joel and Ellie, taking on the war torn and post-apocalyptic America. In-fact, what makes this game stand out is that it is so different from its predecessor and forces you to face the ethical problems that unraveled as a result of Joel's decisions in the end of the first game. Joel's decision to murder the lead surgeon developing a cure and many other Firefly soldiers leaves no hope for a cure, or resolution to the plot that carried much of the motives for the first game. How would other people expect the story to continue with Joel and Ellie again? pursuing the same objective once again? Going after a character for revenge together? There is no possibility for this, and it would just be a repeat of events from the first game. Naughty Dog instead chose to take the game in a different direction, killing one of the main characters right off the bat to fill you with anger and a thirst for revenge. You spend the first 10 hours of the game weaving through corrupt soldiers, killing those responsible for the actions of Joel's death until you finally unravel the reason behind it: Joel ruined all hope for a cure, and people are ANGRY.

    It is a tough pill to swallow. You have to look at the choices from a different perspective. One that is not just Joel and Ellie, which is what the entirety of the first game was built on. This shifts even harder when the game throws you into the shoes of Joel's murderer, Abby. However, the back story that is built on Abby only showcases her motives for murdering Joel, and why she was so desperate for revenge. You then start to see Joel's motives for what they truly are, and how they affected other people than just himself and Ellie. Abby's story then further dives into her own issues, dealing with her love with Owen and her strained relationship with Mel. She then becomes a bigger sister figure to Lev, who is struggling to find his true identity. Along the way, Abby discovered the WLF for who they truly are and how she has lost her way. However, through all this loss that Abby has endured, she is further damaged by Ellie's reckless actions fueled by a thirst for revenge over Joels death.

    Ellie can never truly forgive herself for not repairing her relationship with Joel sooner, and what really hurts her is that she understands the motives that resulted in his death. Thus, she seeks justice to try and heal that damage until she finds out that it is not going to fix her problems.

    I think it's somewhat justified that some users are very upset by this game. It is NOT a typical sequel to a video game, and I really believe that is why I like it so much. The Last of Us Part II truly forces the player to stomach their characters decisions and live through the game in an entirely different perspective. If I said the first game didn't leave a sour taste in my mouth at the end, I would be lying. This is a perfect sequel as it makes you consider if what Joel did was right, or wrong, and lets you live out the consequences of his actions. HOWEVER, I do NOT agree that the story is bad. The story is very progressive and evolves further and further as time goes on. It is important to remember, there are NO happy endings in a world so chaotic and lost. Joel and Ellie will not live happily ever after. Ellie won't kill Abby and then everything will be fine. It is not a giant circle singing kumbaya.

    Instead, it is dark and twisted and evolving around every corner. There is love. There is loss. And at the end it left me feeling complete. Like a proper ending to a series that is so close and dear to my heart. We truly get to see the outcome of Joel's decisions from the first game and how it has affected the world. I applaud Naughty Dog for crafting something so beautiful and something so RAW that really shakes players to their core. If this game did not move you at any part of its story, I encourage you to give it another try with an open mind. Really look at the characters for who they are and try to see their perspective.

    Great job Naughty Dog, you knocked this one out of the park. I will definitely be playing it again.    … Expand

It does take it's time though so don't expect some fast-paced twitchy shooter. And it's massively violent, so beware of that.… Expand

The second chapter in Ellie's story just develops that world even further, adding more depth and complexity to an already very complex world and story.

    Say what you want, this is an extremely provocative game, about which no one will be able to remain indifferent to. It never leaves you in your comfort zone, it´s always messing with your feelings, ideas, certainties, truths.

    Over 30 hours + I felt an immense range of sensations: anger, sadness, joy at the little things in a collapsing world, frustration, confusion. Until a beautiful, poetic and heartbreaking conclusion, in the best Last of Us style.

    If you have finished and TRULY hated that game, ok, it's your right to hate it. If you haven't even finished this story and decided to just board the hate train, I invite you to expand your horizons, try to dive into this story as it was conceived and accept - even if you don't agree - all the subversive choices in the script.

    All hate aside this game was fantastic. They left no stones unturned in the story and the game play was brutal. The entire experience was an improvement over the original. If there is any gripe it could be the games length because it is a long one. It took me 42 hours to complete with all the exploration.

    - sometimes a feeling of slowing down the storyline due to "forced" gameplay

    After seven years, I finally got The Last of Us Part II. What to write about him in a few sentences? The title surpasses its predecessor in all respects and pushes the bar sacramentally high, I would say that it has become a milestone across all Playstation titles that can be played at the moment (or rather survive) and is slowly opening the door to a new generation. The story works great with the characters, when the original ones return and new ones come, and whose psychology and characteristics are different and original, each with a past and a justified motive for its actions. In some scenes, there is an uncontrollable surge of various emotions, which was last provided by Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. The atmosphere connected with the music and the story has again moved a few levels higher and we can speak of a strong dramatic experience that will leave you scars long after it is over. Actions always have their consequences, only at different levels (physical and mental). The gameplay is basically taken from the unit, only it is more balanced, supplemented by new ideas, new enemies, larger locations and solutions to various situations. The Last of Us Part II and its story need to be lived on to your own skin, you can analyze and interpret it on other levels, but this will only bring up questions that are irrelevant to the game as such. So if I have to dig a little (really VERY a little) into that end, then my short version reads: The terms "revenge" and "violence" are directly linked. Is it really necessary to have so much violence in the world? If so, at what price? Where is the end of that human frontier when one opposes revenge? It can be a proceeding, resp. a motive of revenge conditioned by an imbalance of the consequences of the past? Is it possible to back down from revenge and compromise? Here you go.
    PS: Do you know that the opposite of revenge is forgiveness? If you didn't realize this after finishing The Last of Us Part II, then I don't know how you perceive the stories.    … Expand

    A story of revenge that becomes a lesson in obsession and forgiveness. It's a rehashing of violence begetting violence, but also showing that good deeds can be contagious.

    On top of that it improves stealth, AI, and some of the mechanics from the first game. And it looks amazing.

    Ignore the haters (many of which who haven't played this game) and give it a shot.

    If you think it's SJW, it's not. If you think it's "woke", it's not. The game's writing has absolutely nothing to do with that.
    Are you OK with Ellie being a lesbian after the first game? Then you'll be fine with the writing in this game.
    You're wrong to judge if you think that it's anything more than that. There is no LGBT agenda. There's no agenda to speak of.
    You need to see this story through to properly judge, and a few thousand gamers from the internet community being upset with a couple of out of context leaks should not stop you from enjoying what is frankly one of the most emotionally complex and deep games ever made.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The sequel builds on and improves on everything in the previous game from visuals, environments, combat system, and upgrade mechanics.

    The critical part, which is the story is the exact opposite of lazy. While often AAA studios are accused of not daring or taking risks, Naughty Dog went the exact opposite route. And while I definitely felt deep sadness and emptiness at parts of the game, it's those feelings that drive the rest of the story and make it rich. I have never got into these emotional feelings in any game, movie, or even show. Not even Game of Thrones prepared me for this.

    The had a card which they burnt, but from it branched two different opposing narratives, that lets you play and feel the villain's story. When you realize that at the time you were plotting to kill the villain, she was actually risking her life, going against her own people, to save an innocent child from the opposing cult.

    The story of Part 1 in my opinion was more solid. But it was also a lot more linear, and didn't have the conflict Part 2 brings. You may like the story of Part 2 or not in the end. But this is definitely not lazy writing. The details and conflicts have been well thought of, and go very deep, I've never played a game like this. I personally had some moments where I didn't fully buy what happened. But despite that, The Last of Us Part 2 still stands high and unique. When I finished it, I thought I'm good for now. But few weeks later, and all I could think of was this game. And I realized I want to replay it. Although I'm rarely the replay kind of player. So far that, I still find it hard to give it a 9 instead of a 10.

    The best way to enjoy this game is to play it yourself without any prior knowledge or expectations. Enjoy it, and be the judge.    … Expand

    Not everyone is going to enjoy the motives of The Last of Us Part II. But if you try and manage to accept the subliminal and not so subtle messages as a fact that the world has gone awry and that people have the need to have somewhere or someone to belong to as their own way out, then...
