    The game's only redeeming qualities is its graphics and gameplay, even the gameplay can be debated if its good or not. By the end of the game, you have no characters left to root for (yes, not even Ellie) because the game robs them of any redeeming qualities and interesting character growth.

The game becomes repetitive and tedious at some point. The narrative is poorly developed and some events are forced into the story, they happen as a result of a series of miraculous coincidences. The game uses some cheap emotional manipulation techniques to create fake empathy for certain characters. The intention is there, the way to get to it just doesn't work.

    Sometimes, it even feels as though the writer of this game is not the same as the first one. Everything that was created in Part I was thrown away in Part II. It is difficult to believe the actions of certain characters, especially in a world like the one they try to depict in the story. Also, the behavior of the characters in this game go against what they had established in the first one.

    I understand that the false advertisement was done in order to protect the story, but I can't help thinking that they did it to trick people into thinking this game would be an adventure similar to the first one in some way, and so ensure sales on day 1, relying on the nostalgic feeling people had for the first game.    … Expand

    The story was the primary let down of The Last of Us 2. The dialogue was awkward, clunky, and just didn't feel real. The new characters feel hollow and, try as they might, Naughty Dog just can't get you to care for them.

The graphics and environment are pretty good, but the game is terrible in terms of story, numerous plot holes, enemy AI (Buggy as hell, melee attacks sometimes wouldn't even register), and the fact that we were told we didn't have to kill any dogs in the game, but made us kill one speaks volumes. I do not recommend this game to anyone who was a fan of the Last of Us. Rest in Peace Joel. **** you, Abby… Expand

Strangely enough, in all the reviews that praise the game to the skies, there is no criticism of obvious weaknesses like the extremely repetitive game-play. The game feels more like a 3rd person shooter and could easily be shortened by one third. What remains is probably the best graphics ever seen on a PS4, but this is not enough. … Expand

    Last of US 1 was a great, great game.

    Last of Us 2 not only added nothing to the development of the lore or game-play, it took away all the positive connection I had with the characters from the first game. I would rather the game did not get made. Forget the money or the time I spent, Neil destroyed what was once timeless and memorable.

    Was there any positive? Yes.

    All the scenes where Joel and Ellie conversed, even when they were arguing.

    And of course, the museum scene, that almost made the game worth it.

    But not quite.

They managed screwing up a beloved character, killing another in an over simplistic manner and to top it off they force you to engage and control a new character (who by the way had way more charisma and attention than the main chars) and expect you to care about her.

    All bad decisions leading up to a repetitive game with a uninteresting story centering itself in a character you don't care about. Way to go people.

    I've been making myself endure the game simply because I could not believe how much they f'd it up. Don't buy it, it's an exercise in frustration and patience. A wonderful game followed by complete trash that has probably disrupted what could be an awesome franchise. Will not but the next one.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. En un juego como The last of us no puedes solo fiarte de tu jugabilidad y gráficos a la hora de crear el juego, en este tipo de juegos la historio llega a ser mucha mas importante que los anteriores, por ende, este es el aspecto del que voy a basar mi comentario y puntuación... En resumen, simplemente en The last of us part II la historia no logra las expectativas que se tenían y muchos van a querer que este juego quede en el olvido.

    Para comenzar, es increible como pueden terminar con la historia de un personaje tan importante de una forma tan simple (la muerte de Joel fue como la muerte de un NPC de un videojuego cualquiera), ademas, no se da la oportunidad de jugar con este personaje a pesar de ser el actor principal en la primera entrega, solo los primeros 5 minutos del juego montando a caballo. Por otra parte tampoco se permite visualizar al personaje por mucho tiempo, ademas de no poder jugar con el, el personaje no aparece por mas de 20 - 30 minutos en la totalidad del juego. Sin embargo, es entendible que no se le diera tanta jugabilidad a este personaje, pues fue el papel principal en la primera entrega y era el turno de Elli, ademas tampoco se debe complacer a los fans en todo lo que piden, pero esto no justifica lo que la franquicia acaba de hacer con uno de sus personajes estelares de una forma tan ilógica.

    Ahora bien, en cuanto a la nueva protagonista lo que se puede decir es muy subjetivo, pero obligar al jugador a pasar la mitad del juego con un personaje que en la primera parte del juego adquiere todo el odio de los que jugaron la primera entrega, es también algo ilógico, ya que solo hace que el jugador se canse del juego e incluso poder llegar a abandonarlo sin completarlo ya que es un juego bastante extenso. No se si la intensión de los creadores era hacer sentir pena por la nueva personaje (Abby), o intentar tenerle cariño o aprecio como usualmente pasa con los personajes de videojuegos en los que hay una gran historia, pero puedo decir que obligar a jugar con un personaje no va a hacer que se le aprecie, son las acciones que realiza a lo largo de la historia lo que si lo hace, y simplemente haber matado un personaje estelar no va a permitir tener empatia con este nuevo personaje de la entrega. Se puede decir que los creadores no supieron implementar bien este personaje en lo absoluto.

    Por otra parte, si nos vamos al final del juego tampoco se entiendo lo que los creadores de The last of us part II quieren acá, no se puede comprender como se pueden pasar tantas horas de juego intentando buscar una venganza para al final dejar ir y al parecer perdonar a la persona que se persiguió por tanto tiempo, ¿acaso intenta dejar una enseñanza o algo por el estilo?, porque en videojuegos como este, esa no es una de las metas que deben tener los creadores en mente (es como querer dejar un buen mensaje al final de jugar todo GTA V), no se que pensó el director de este videojuego al redactar el final. Como deje anteriormente, no se debe complacer a los fans en todo, pero este no era el caso, y los creadores no supieron como hacer las cosas bien a lo largo del juego y mucho menos en el final de este.

    Para finalizar se podría decir que The last of us part II no logro cumplir las expectativas tan altas que dejo la primera entrega, esto debido a no saber continuar una historia con una buena calidad, a pesar de que el en la primera parte se dejo la posibilidad clara de poder continuarla de la forma adecuada, incluso matando a Joel (de la forma adecuada, en el momento adecuado y sin obligar a jugar con el asesino para "encariñarse" con el).

    En un juego como este la historia es lo principal y debe ser el factor mas importante a lo hora de la calificación.    … Expand

    Joel en este juego no es el mismo que en el primero y hacen que parezca como un idiota, al final del juego castigan a Ellie dejándola sin nada y sin dedos y ni siquiera mato a Abby, si te ponen a jugar con un personaje tan odioso como abby y te hacen pelear en contra de Ellie por lo menos al final te hubieran dado la opcion de matarla y que todas esas horas de juego aburridas valieran la pena.

    Lots of fans (just like me) were not interested in playing Abby. The way the game tries have you to empathize with her is just pathetic. Abby's point of view, wasnt even that immersive. And they forced u to beat Ellie up, "kill" Joel... for me, it was not a story to enjoy, since E&J were the main reason why I bought the game.

    The game fails miserabily also in the ending. All the suffering and sacrifices from Ellie, made no sense in the end.
    I get it NG, REVENGE IS BAD, but also bad writing, imposing agendas and changing chars behaviour just to have the "story" go the way u want it to go.
    The story could have so much potential: Joel's death could have been developed much much better. it's so bitter to see your MC from the first game being killed (just for a story trope), by a random antagonist just introduced.
    I think most of the players wanted to see the development in Ellie and Joel relationship, and how the whole choice about saving Ellie's life could have changed and progressed between the two. We get just a little chat about that, but nothing more.

    And, about the side characters. just crap, Unlike the original ones. The old characters, are so diverse from the 1st game, its so sad to see how they changed them just to fit their agenda.

It believes itself to be telling a deep story of “revenge is bad” but it fails to recognize that justice and revenge are two sides to the same coin. In a world where there is no external justice, communities have to protect themselves and take their own justice. This game ignores that nuance, instead delving into a weird, “killing people who came to your town, hunted, tortured, and murdered one of your own should be forgiven.” That’s not how society works. That’s never been how society works. That’s literally why our society has jury nullification, because sometimes we all agree that revenge killing is justice(I.e., in recent years, the father in Texas who killed his daughter’s rapist with a shotgun). We see two paths laid out in the game: Ellie, who’s father figure is brutally tortured and His corpse desecrated in front of her, by invaders who came to her community and tried to kill her and her uncle. She hunts them down and executed them quickly, and only in self defense(with the exception of Nora, an enemy combatant that she tortures for information on the rest of the invaders). And then there is Abby’s path. Abby is out for torture and blood and pain. We see her mercilessly torture others with no emotional reckoning after the fact, we see her betray and turn on her own companions, and yet the game repeatedly tries to instill that Abby’s path was justice, not revenge, whereas Ellie’s path is revenge, not justice. They utterly failed at their own theme or any sense of nuance and it makes the entire game ring hollow. Ironically, a play series written in 400 BC dealt with the theme of the boundary between societal justice and personal revenge ENORMOUSLY better than this. It’s called the Orestia cycle, and I highly recommend that the writers of this game look into it. The playwright concludes in the end that revenge only becomes unjustified when there is an external force to administer justice.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us is my favourite game of all time so I was excited for the sequel, even though I got spoiled about one of the major events. This event sounded questionable but I decided to wait for contexts like many of the critic reviews said to before I judged it. My thoughts on the game overall by the end was graphics 10/10, gameplay 9/10, story 3/10. The story just killed my enjoyment of The Last of Us Part 2 completely. It is so terribly written. There are some good moments, which is why the story gets a 3 and not a 0 but they in no way make up for the awful story choices that are made. Joel's relationship with Ellie is spat upon, characters make ridiculous choices, and the mystery woman, played by Laura Bailey, is, in my opinion, the worst video game character of all time. This character and the way she is portrayed is one of the big reasons why the story is so bad. Not only that but the ending is just awful. It completely undoes the message they were trying to tell and makes everything feel pointless. Again, the graphics and gameplay are amazing, but I just did not want to replay the game and witness such a terrible story. I returned the game yesterday. 4/10. The graphics, gameplay and some story elements are good but since the overall story is so important to The Last of Us Part 2 , and most of that story is horrible, I had to give it a 4. Now, whenever I replay the original The Last of Us, I am going to have to pretend that this disaster never happened. fgdg… Expand

    This game is comparable to the 32x add-on to the genesis, it adds to the original, but for all the wrong reasons. The original was well-written and at least I could sympathize with one of the main characters. It loses most of the values from the original, and the trailer load about several things involving Joel.

Если бы это было отдельной игрой, а не продолжением первой части, то было бы не так плохо, ведь те персонажи, которые нам полюбились, или безжалостно "убраны", либо изменены настолько, что являются полной противоположностью, не тем, чем были в первой части. Вместо этого всего в игру напичкали новых героев, на которых тебе похкр, ну нету к ним привязанности. Финал - отдельная песня. Элии убила 100500 человек, ради мести Эбби, но саму Эбби так и не убила? Да, нам показывали, что она сама просто мстила Джоэлу, но это видели мы, не Элли! С чего бы ей вдруг было её щадить? Ладно, кому-то сюжет может понравиться, не спорю, кто-то увидит в нем глубокий смысл, но я так не считаю. Кроме посредственного сюжета в игре присутствуют баги, но стоит отметить, что многие мелкие детали, как записи в дневнике, создают свою атмосферу.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In terms of gameplay, I enjoyed the first half and couldn't wait to play more. By the second half I wanted to get through it as quickly as possible. (I actually sprinted through multiple encounters just to get moving, especially during the last area of the game).

    Regarding where most of my disappointment comes from. I think.

    Imaging driving your car, getting blindsided by another car killing your parent (a hit and run), chasing them down in a blind rage, and then taking an air bag to the face with a note taped to it from the speeder saying "sorry, not sorry, I'm sure you understand".

    I'm still finding it difficult to articulate how I feel a few days after I've beaten the game, I apologize if this review does not explain it well.

    Grief has several stages, but not here. There are two, anger and acceptance.

    Joel is brutally murdered by Abby, you go out on a man hunt to take revenge (the whole time truly furious and convinced that Abby needs to die and everyone that helped her as well) and then.

    Boom

    The sides switch and you are forced to play as the person who killed your father-figure in bloody fashion, in an effort to make you understand her side and empathize with her. Keep in mind, Abby shows zero remorse for her actions, and we are just expected to be "huh, I get it now. I killed all your friends, but you (the person I set out to kill in the first place) can live".

    By the end I left the game thinking, is that it? I left confused not knowing what I'm supposed to feel, but feeling disappointed and almost numb and not sure why.    … Expand

The Game is absolute trash the story makes no sense this game makes you play more than 10 hrs as **** Abby really they make you play and understand why she did what she did and its hopeless. She only got revenge on Joel because he killed his father. Joel killed many people before him and those could be parents who have children to but no Hulk needed revenge on Joel. We didn't even played more than 3 hrs and Joel died because of Abby. This game in my opinion it disrespects the man I mean the sex because as you can see they kill Joel and Jessie, and leave Tommy absolutely harmed without chance of defending himself but the woman who is Dina, Abby, Lev, and Ellie got to survive to be right on tha choices they make, and they are bad examples for the player I mean Dina and Ellie smoked weed and then they had fun, Abby killed Joel to show us that she was no better than him because he got revenge and harmed Ellie physically and emotionally as kind of how Joel did so what is the game telling us? That revange is the best way to solve problems?, no **** way! These needs to know, you need to know Neil Druckman that your not a mater mind as you think. If you want gamers to be happy with the game admit that you were wrong doing it and try on doing the game all over again with better story than that. Im really disappointed.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It is unavoidable that the theme is how NaughtyDog deals with the stubborn relationship in 1.
    However, it is difficult to tolerate the present work, whose humanity and affection before the pandemic disappeared from the root.
    Negative emotions are too great to make Joel a foremost player by putting Joel on the forefront.
    It seems like a consistent theme from the previous work, and I will never be convinced by the sequel that lost sight of how to convey the theme.

    Elie wants to forgive Joel's sin
    Elie wants to forgive Abby's sin
    A player wants to forgive Joel's sin
    Feeling that the player wants to forgive Abby's sin (high difficulty).

    Everything is off.
    Personally, I think that players cannot be immersed in the last Erie's disappointment unless everything is tied with equality.
    Even if Ellie's disappointment is shown from a bird's-eye view, I can't feel the weight of Joel's death, and above all I can't feel the weight of the gameplay.

    Do you want to draw opposite ego?
    Do you want to draw Ellie's forgiveness and liberation?
    After all, it's just an unpleasant game experience

    TLOU1 Suspension bridge through action game The player's emotions that increase effectively cause a chemical reaction with a scenario that draws two distorted love

    TLOU2 wanted the player to build a complicity relationship with the character through an action game, and to create an immersive feeling in a scenario that makes you feel guilty and disappointed, but the script is too bad and it is not functioning.
    I think what Neil tried to do was an experimental and interesting idea. If all went well, I think it was a great gaming experience. However, the result was the worst game.

    He completely betrayed his fans by immersing himself in the best gaming experience of the previous game.
    It's just unpleasant and bad taste, and what remains after clearing is the feeling of emptiness and fatigue.

    I used the previous work as a tool to evoke this **** feeling. And I don't feel the need at all. Nothing is convincing.

    You don't have to create what your fans want.
    However, it is unforgivable to insult the fans who supported you and the story of Joel and Erie from the bottom of your life.

    The volume and making of the gameplay part is wonderful, and it can be said that it is an orthodox evolution of the previous work.
    That's not enough.
    It's painful just to imagine playing the second lap because you're forced to play a game that violently tells a story or violates player feelings. This is an incredibly horrifying flaw in the game.

The game lacks of consistency, has too many forced events, also trying to make you feel pity for the evil ones, WTF?? Really?!! I could have written a better story for Joel and Ellie for a second part, What is wrong with you guys at Naughty Dog, why didnt you respect basics??

    We all understand you want to add some social troubles to the game, but instead of creating an enjoyable environment, you guys were like, OMG, we do not have any more ideas, what should we do??, Please keep in mind a game is to entertain for hours and hours, and not to educate, if we want some lecture for anything related to our current Society, we either watch news, read books, or go to the school.

    Naughty Dogs, you should really apologize to all of US, and make a solid statement recognizing you really miss the path with the game and after that make an announcement indicating that you all will FIX this crap as it should be properly done, instead of just seating around in your office spending the money you earn with the love we fans have given to you for this franchise. I hope you Neil will never again write, or direct the game, if there is any other game in the franchise as you and any other writer for this game chapter II, has played as backstabber for the fans of this game.

    Do you know how much we were expecting this game just be let down by "this creative team"? and you do not act like grown ups, accepting the screw up the game and you should apologize and re do it properly.

    I just can't believe it how is it that you took so long to do this game, if this story has so much lack of consistency.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Shame. Just shame. I had high hopes for this game, and they ruined it.
    The game is hollow, does not have any message or even a conclusion. It is not The Last of Us, it is just misery porn with nothing ever good happening, no chance of Ellie to shine throughout the story that was supposed to be about her but became about a ruthless psycho woman who killed one of the main characters right off the bat. They played with the personalities of both Joel and Ellie for the sake of the plot and it was incredibly forced.
    Joel would not trust a stranger. Neither would Tommy. Ellie would not forget that map at her enemy's base.

    The game tries to manipulate the player into liking Abby, but it fails miserably. Ellie kills dogs, Abby pets them. The people Ellie kills scream and beg, Abby saves two children. However, Ellie feels bad ever time she kills someone whereas Abby gets happy about killing a pregnant girl. She has sex with her friend's boyfriend. She never shows any remorse for her actions, and does not learn anything by the end of the game. So, no character development at all. She is just there for the idea of a "strong woman character" but get this straight; having big muscles does not make you strong. Showing compassion does.
    So, who thought having players play as Abby for 10+ hours is a good idea? The thing I hated the most was when I had to fight against Ellie as Abby. It is not even plausible that she could win that fight with no weapons whatsoever.
    Overall, the game has completely shattered the old characters' personalities, lives, and hopes. We got the worst ending possible with Ellie having lost everything. They also lied to the players in trailers and by not giving any info about playing as Abby. They knew we were here for Joel and Ellie so they kept it. The whole plot is filled with major plot holes and cheap emotional manipulation. On top of that, you have to play 10+ hours with a character you hate just to see this messed up ending.
    No, thanks. Naughty dog has just lost a fan, and Neil Druckmann will be remembered as one of the worst writers for years to come.
    The only reason I'm not rating it 0/10 is because of the hard work the design team has put into their work.    … Expand

    Everything bad about this game, has been told. Nothing to add, the biggest disappointment this year so far.

    In my opinion, a successful producer, which was so successful in its previous game, would not need to demean itself to the politically correct and to a political agenda that pretends to defend minorities, but, in practice, wants to segregate people and use them as  song to take power.  It is disappointing to spend so many years waiting for a game to follow and, when it finally arrives,In my opinion, a successful producer, which was so successful in its previous game, would not need to demean itself to the politically correct and to a political agenda that pretends to defend minorities, but, in practice, wants to segregate people and use them as  song to take power.  It is disappointing to spend so many years waiting for a game to follow and, when it finally arrives, with all its technical prowess, it attacks my religious belief through a last-ditch, boring cultural tactic that does not fool anyone else.  Just look at user notes.  Next time, Nauthdog, make sure you don't hesitate, okay?  Leave minorities alone and stop exposing their lives, because it will not be through ideological rape that bad people will stop discriminating against other people who think differently.  If you continue to follow the evil progressive agenda, your empire will one day collapse.  You are the best at what you do!  Technically, the game is fantastic!  So, please play games and not dirty, hypocritical and, above all, boring politics!  The politically correct is a cultural cancer, do not let it kill the satisfaction we have in playing.  Good luck next time!… Expand

    в игре очень хорошая графика, но очень слабо проработан сюжет во 2й части игры минимальное количество времени уделено на сюжетные детали

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was one of the few that ignored the leaks and spoilers as best as I could. I cannot believe the hatchet job that was done to my favorite game of all time. Killing Joel was definitely a message against the “patriarchy” as at the end you dont even get your revenge and let the killer go. That was the most anticlimactic ending I’ve ever experienced. Game play was tight and guns felt great but I definitely won’t be replaying like I did the original. They wanted to push an agenda in this game and lost a fan in me. I’m done with naughty dog… Expand

    The story of the game is bad and the content it provides is worse and the characters' relationships with each other

    The Last of Us Part II is the high point of the PlayStation 4. The plot is controversial, but the game is the incredibly addictive adventure of Ellie, from which it is impossible to pull away from the opening and to the very end.

    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.

    If you loved the original for its great characters and well-paced story – stay away from this game. However, if you’re aching to sink into the depths of depression, or just want to cut some throats and burn some zombies – Part II will deliver. [Issue#247, p.72]
