The acting is great but the writing is flat. The gameplay is about the same as the first game with a few changes which isn’t a big deal. The level designs were interesting and visually pleasing but did not add any complexity to the gameplay. Each map felt like you could run and gun it with ease. Stealth felt very obsolete because of the openness of the level designs. I wish the infected were more numerous and harder to navigate through but sadly the game took a different direction by making humans the main enemies. This game felt totally different from the first TLOU which I would rate a 9/10.… Expand

    Los pro's del juego en si es lo mismo que caracterizó a la primera entrega, limpiamente en tanto gameplay como en gráficos, sublime en esos sentidos.. A parte que por partes te sientes en un mundo abierto al momento de explorar.

    Aqui va lo malo de ésta entrega (spoilers advertidos desde este punto), y es que es muy pobre en cuanto a la historia, desde un comienzo te quitan a un personaje realmente importante, con el cual simpatizabas en gran medida.. Te meten personajes sin un desarrollo como Dina y Jessy, que lo unico que hacen es frenar el rumbo de Ellie de comienzo a fin. Luego van los flashbacks, el punto a favor que tiene es el flashback del cumpleaños de ellie con joel, pero todo se va al abismo por la sobre actuación de la personaje principal al saber la realidad de las luciérnagas, sin entender el propósito que hubo tras Joel, a eso súmenle que te intentan meter de manera obligada a la antagonista, para que "simpatices" con sus propósitos, simplemente obligado, gratis, horrendo según mi punto de vista.

    a Tommy que fue una voz de la razón y el personaje carismático de la entrega, en momentos finales te lo venden como un viejo loco, eso más Dina que abandona a ellie sin entender el punto de venganza y rencor que tiene contra Abby (la antagonista de la entrega), todo esto termina metiéndose a la psique de la protagonista al momento de su venganza, sin poder concretar la muerte de Abby y por ende, dejándola viva.. El único personaje con el cual podías simpatizar termina cayendo al abismo, junto Tommy, jessy y Dina, simplemente despreciable el uso final de Ellie y sus flashbacks de sobre reacción hacia Joel, todo lo que hicieron bien en The las of Us 1 lo han terminando matar de manera pobre en una segunda entrega, que pasaron 7 años puliendo para finalmente entregarnos lo peor .. Algo que simplemente nos hace enterrar los personajes con los cuales simpatizaste en el uno, y deja para el olvido los "complementos" de personajes que nos dieron en esta entrega. Fin.    … Expand

    Most sequels to classics are love letters to fans because the artists want to reciprocate our love and appreciation for them. RDR2, God of War, etc. these games are love letters to their fan bases, they have so much fan service. This game is not that. The artist responsible for this game made a game for himself and you as a fan can take it or leave it. Very sad.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I played the first game and loved it, so i did my best to avoid and ignore any of the leaks posted recently. I was utterly disappointed in this sequel, complete disregard for the characters and their personalities which were setup in the first game. The story then goes on to ham-fistedly shout about a very basic moral statement 'REVENGE BAD!!'. It continues to shout this all game and tries to end on the same note, despite the main antagonist getting revenge and she's completely fine.

    The game tries to make us feel empathy towards various characters in very lazy ways i.e flashbacks. While the flashbacks themselves are some of the most well executed aspects of the game in terms of contained storytelling, they are used in the worst possible way. Hours after a supposedly major character death (whose name i immediately forgot or never even remembered) these flashbacks show up to try and humanise the dead character and try to make the player feel bad for something they've already forgotten about doing.

    The game also tries to stress the method of killing these people is so brutal and graphic, as to make Ellie break down at times, despite having just mowed through 100 other people, killing them in just as graphic, if not worse ways. The game tries cheap tricks to compound on this feeling, such as the 'ha, she was pregnant' card like 3 times and the 'how could you kill an animal' card.

    As for the controls and gameplay, nobody really plays this game for these aspects, but to put a final nail in this coffin, they suck. Like everything else in the game, its been made to look nice but they are still the same controls from the game 7 years ago. The extend, that i get bored playing it at times. You didn't notice it in part 1, because there were regular story beats, or character interactions to break up the longer stretches between key moments. Here we have very extended stretches, where the character you play, is completely alone, for a long time, so there is nothing to distract you from the poor gameplay.

    The only redeeming area of this game for me, is the artwork, both acted and drawn. The world and people in it are animated incredibly well and there are some magnificent panoramic shots. The mo-cap voice acting was also second to none, other than maybe the first game. Just a shame, the phenomenal actors and actresses were given such utter drivel to work with.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Okay where do I start, rating this game a 4/10 is sad. It truly breaks my heart to rate this game a 4/10, but it truly deserves this rating. This franchise is legendary and it's sad that their second installment of the game is a big disappointment. This game technically is amazing, it has jaw-dropping graphics, incredible animations, awesome cut scenes, great fighting mechanics, and acting. But where this game goes wrong is it's story. Since this is a story driven game, you'd expect the game to have an amazing story just like it's predecessor, The Last Of Us 1. Unfortunately though, the story of The Last of Us Pt 2 incredibly fails expectations. The first installment of this franchise was iconic and it was written perfectly to show human emotion and hope. The second installment falls into a terrible cliche of revenge. The revenge cliche starts with the death of Joel, he is tortured and killed by Abby right in front of Ellie. As a fan of the game, I was incredibly mad at how they killed Joel! The way they killed Joel was an amazing example of lazy writing, Joel would have never ever put himself into that situation in the Mansion. Joel would never be stupid enough to say his real name in front of random people he's never met. I mean for Christ's sake, Joel didn't even trust Ellie in the beginning of The Last of Us 1, why would he trust random strangers? it's the apocalypse! It's clear that Joel would have never put himself in that situation, so why did he? Lazy writing!! So after this event, Ellie goes on a killing rampage to find Abby. Ellie kills all of Abby's friends but never finds her, so Tommy suggests just leaving and letting it go. She agrees until Abby comes out of nowhere and kills Jesse, she then threatens Tommy's life at gunpoint. Abby points the gun at Ellie, the scene cuts and then we as gamers are forced to play as Abby for 10 hours to know her backstory. Naughty Dog, we don't care about Abby! The point of the game was to kill her, so why would you think it'd be a great idea to make us play as the woman who mutilated Joel, for ten hours? This ten hour gameplay with Abby was so boring, and I resented every second I had to play with her. That isn't the worst part though, Naughty Dog makes you beat the living **** out of Ellie! I really don't understand how this game was approved! Anyways, Abby lets Ellie live again, Ellie trys to forget about what Abby did, but she cant, so she once again goes to find her, and once she finds her, (after killing multiple innocent people) she lets her go! Hahahahahaha this game was just pointless! There was no meaning, just death! This game had a horrible intro, horrible plot, horrible character arch, and horrible ending! They made us sit and wait for seven years for this poorly wrote game! What's crazier though is how Naughty Dog is responding to criticism. They are calling every low rating a bot, or a misogynistic person, or a transphobic person, or a homophobic person. Wake up Naughty Dog! We are none of the above! I support LGBTQ+, and I'm not misogynistic! When woman are put in lead roles I don't mind, it's the same as if they were a male. Ellie is one of my favorite characters in all of gaming, same with Clementine from Telltales's The Walking Dead! We're not mad about Ellie's sexuality, we're mad about how Joel died, and how poorly written the story is.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A huge, huge, huge middle finger to those who fell in love with the original game.

    I couldn't even finish the game, and I tried so hard to. I usually don't completely quit games without giving it a ton of more chances, but this sequel just didn't click for me.

    The pros are obvious—fantastic mocapping, animations, voice acting, and environment building. I also actually enjoyed the small additions to the combat, including the ability to lie flat on your stomach, craft arrows + bomb arrows, and leave scent trails for the dogs. However, even these pros couldn't get me over the jarring flaws.

    Joel dying is what immediately made me think, "Damn. Maybe I should've listened to the criticisms before I bought this." He dies 30 minutes into the game, and Jesse dies quickly too. NOT good for those who really thought the main protagonist of the first game would play a physical role in the second game. The whole plot of the game also revolves around Ellie chasing after Abby and seeking revenge, but decides against it in the ending, leaving Abby to go free. Unsatisfying and confusing.

    Playing as Abby didn't make me feel sympathy for her. I already hated her for killing Joel, and her backstory was part of such a minuscule detail from the first game that I'm baffled they even decided to focus on it. Abby's route was insanely boring and during that point of the game I quit. Her friends were boring. Her attitude was boring. I couldn't feel sorry for her even as she cried on the floor in front of her dad, who, not to mention, held a blade up to Joel first before he shot him. During the first game, we learned of the deep reasoning behind Joel's selfish behaviors, and we sympathized with him. By showing Abby as an angry murderer before showing her as a fellow human with her own drive and reasonings, it really makes players unable to give her any space to tell her side of the story.

    The characters are out-of-character very frequently. Joel is a molded survivor with the ability to sniff out when something is off. It didn't seem realistic for him to so easily trust Abby and then, in the end, get brutally killed. Ellie is also not the happy-go-lucky girl from the first game. She is moody and apathetic. It didn't feel like I was controlling the same girl.

    The game also seemed to switch its focus onto something completely new instead of what The Last of Us was built on. The story often revolved around human killers and a civil war between the Wolves and the Seraphites instead of the infected and CBI. It felt like the civil war was a bigger part of the plot than the infected.

    The atmosphere just wasn't the same to me either. I can't explain that very well. Maybe it's the lack of Joel. I actually cried during the museum flashback with Ellie and Joel because it was so much like the first game, a striking contrast compared to adult Ellie's adventures. My Listen Mode didn't work, like, at all; could never see the silhouettes of enemies in different rooms. I also didn't like the lack of nail bombs. I've read so many alternatives to this game's plot and it makes me sad to say the majority of them were really better than the canon plot we got. I was really hoping the clips of Abby in the trailers were actually Anna. That might've been a lot more interesting.    … Expand

    Graphics amazing. Gameplay is fine. Soundtrack stunning. Narrative brave to actual disrespect the fan base. Brave to destroy everything the game was built on. Brave to waste about 10 hours of gamers time on someone who is unlikable.

    Poor Storytelling, linear gameplay pathways, forces players down unfavorable paths and in unwanted positions within the games story element. Also Very Poor character development and intrigue. On the other hand. Decent gameplay and graphics.

    if a game really deserved the 95 that its getting, there wouldn't be such a unanimous reaction from pretty much everyone streaming this game on twitch. Like you can literally see everyone struggling to care enough about the game to continue playing to the end. Everyone is just tired.

    I don't know what I was talking about when I gave this a good review. It was a drudge to the end, the story was phoned in, and I never picked it back up after completing it. Anticipating a masterpiece, was not nearly that. Ghost of Tsushima was leaps and bounds better as a 2020 game.

    Not a good game. It might be serviceable if they reordered events. Gameplay is pretty sluggish and repetitive. I've never had a linear game seem so oppressively linear. Rather than trying to explore an area, i'd be pushed into the next with no way back. None of the new characters were likeable or remember able. if I could get my money and time back I would.

    The Last of Us 2 é uma obra prima com um erro, um erro fatal e filho da puta o suficiente para irritar muitos fãs da série.

    Tudo no jogo foi feito com os mínimos detalhes, nos garantindo uma excelente porém longa jornada com a protagonista Ellie em busca de sua vingança, mesmo deixando exposto eu não reclamo do quão longo foi a experiência, afinal em muitos jogos atuais se tiverem quatros horas de duração já é muito, com toda certeza TLOU 2 merece SIM pelo menos boa parte das indicações a Game of the Year, mas seria este jogo o ganhador.
    Vamos ser honestos, entre vocês que odeiam e amam este game, a história vacila em muitos momentos, falando de experiência própria, em muitos momentos eu não sabia se continuar a vingança seria algo bom ou ruim (claro que seria ruim), mas para ambos os lados (Abby e Ellie) fora tomadas razõess diferentes, como posso defender as razões de Abby ao matar Joel, mas condenar o desfecho de Ellie como " ela é a culpada por querer vingança".
    Erros no roteiro são comuns mas Joel se "entregar" a estranhos sua identidade fora muito esquisito par a engolir, a Redenção de Abby com certeza foi a melhor do jogo assim como a personagem também é a melhor, o que sentimos ao controla-la é o mais puro ódio até entremos suas semelhanças com o falecido Joel (dois personagens que foram cruéis por uma vida inteira até encontrarem uma razão para viver , e assim defende-la até o fim de suas vidas).
    Mas o Final é o que resume a confusão geral e a má construção da historia do game, imagine que vc acorda e bate o pé na quina da sua cama, você não respira, conta até três e sai andando, VOCE XINGA DEUS E O MUNDO PARA ALIVIAR SUA DOR, afinal o ódio faz parte vida assim como o amor, agora imagine-se no lugar da Ellie( personagem querida), e no lugar da quina da cama vc tem um mundo pós apocalíptico cruel e injusto cheio psicopatas , fanáticos e criaturas malditas, matam sua figura paterna de maneira brutal, quase assassinam seu "tio", quase matam o amor da sua vida, destroem sua vida, e no momento em que seu ódio está a flor da pele ainda lhe arrancam dois/três dedos da sua mão na dentada e tudo que você faz é "vá embora". É humanamente impossível o desfecho deste jogo, o perdão nesta realidade é falso e inexistente, e mesmo assim ele acontece com dizer saúde, após alguém espirrar.
    Enfim, o jogo é facilmente um 7/10, inovador e incrível de ser jogado, mas peça em parte de seu principal fator - história.
    - Baseado na minha experiência e opinião, se vc pensa de forma diferente saiba que sua opinião merece ser escutada, mas sempre respeito o próximo, não é pelo seu ódio ou prazer pelo jogo que o seu colega seja um completo idiota por pensar diferente.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us is one of my absolute favourite games of all time. What made it such an enjoyable game was not only the graphics and immersive gameplay, but the evolving relationship between Joel and Ellie. They are the heart and soul of the first game and what I expected of part II was to keep that heart beating, not rip it out with such barbarity as they did. The problem here is not Joel dying. It's how he died and why. You're forced to play a big portion of the game as Abby (Joel's killer) and it is as if Naughty Dog kicked you in the gut and laughed. The storytelling is shamefully weak and backwards, like next level character assassination which is apparent to anyone who played the first game. I don't care for any of these new characters and no matter how amazing the gameplay itself is I will not be able to enjoy it because its justtoo aggravating! 2 points for how stunning the game looks (which was to be expected anyway) and 0 points for the butchering of beloved characters.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So, here is my completely legitimate completely official game purchaser review of TLOU 2. Spoiler alert ladies and gentlemen, I hated it, and let me explain why. The introduction of a completely new antagonist that upends the lives of our characters Joel and Ellie works in theory, but it’s poorly executed in the writing in this game. The antagonist isn’t truly built up enough before the death scene of a universally loved character. The death scene was, in my honest opinion done the way that it was done to induce shock and garner hatred for Abbie. The problem is, once that hatred for Abbie settles in, the game shoves you into playing as her, to fight another beloved character. I don’t know what naughty dog and company were smoking when they came up with this, but I want a hit of it. As a huge fan of the original game, and coming into this one open minded and spoiler free, I can safely say... don’t waste your money folks.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. WTF was this mess... if this got that many 10/10 from those so-called game journalists/reviewers, either they are bribed or they are simply retarded. There’re many things wrong in this game — the more hours you spend in this story, the worse it gets. The dev and the publisher are crazy enough to let the player to go through this story to not just waste their time but also destroy their experience and memory from the first game.

    The story writing and arrangement were some of the worst I’ve seen in years. None of the new characters was interesting or charming, and yet the dev decided to force the player to control one of the most hated characters for hours and to tell a story that no one cares. I recognized that many players probably can only feel connected to those characters from the first game, but the writing was done so poorly that these characters got so much different than the ones in our memory. The new characters are also changing quite a lot that it feels they don’t have fixed personalities which guided their actions. It almost felt like the characters (i.e. the writer) betrayed us by changing that much every, like, 3 minutes.

    Every flashbacks were awkward and out of place, and sometimes felt like the dev found a loophole in the story and then just added the information through a flashback. In my opinion the game was already pretty bad at nearly the end, but after the dev forced us to beat up Ellie, it got to the last “episode” and that’s when the game truly fell apart into a 0/10 crap to me.

    Gameplay-wise, it’s ok but also feels unexceptional. It was supposed to be a story-driven game after all. I’d have probably given it like a 2/10 simply for the mo-cap, map design and gameplay, but now it’s 0/10 considering how the dev replied on this mess and how this game left no feeling or even took all the connections to every characters from me.    … Expand

Voice acting is good, but the story sucks and Abby is a very unlikable and unsympathetic character. Joel's death makes no sense when you've played the first game. In the first game Joel runs a guy who is pretending to be sick just because he didn't trust a stranger. But in the second game he just gives his name to a group of strangers who he just met which leads to him getting killed. They try to force you to like Abby and make Ellie look like the bad guy. Example, Anby is shown playing with a dog while Ellie is killing dogs left and right. Abby's crew are also unlikable and uninteresting characters. There is a pregnant woman in Abby's crew that insists on being on the frontlines instead of staying at base to care for her unborn child. She is needlessly putting the health and wellbeing of her unborn child at risk for a reason I'm not sure, I find this to be a very stupid thing to do. Just stay at base until your baby is born.… 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... You will witness the boundaries of gaming expand. You will witness a true masterpiece.
