    Esta review se base en experiencia propia tras finalizar el juego.

    Es increíble lo bien que se siente jugar a este título, cada puñetazo que das duele, cada bala que disparas la sientes, combinado con las nuevas dinamicas y esa mejora de los momentos de combate y demas hacen de su jugabilidad un 10/10. Ahora bien, el problema de la narrativa es uno muy grande si has jugado al primero.    Esta review se base en experiencia propia tras finalizar el juego.

    Es increíble lo bien que se siente jugar a este título, cada puñetazo que das duele, cada bala que disparas la sientes, combinado con las nuevas dinamicas y esa mejora de los momentos de combate y demas hacen de su jugabilidad un 10/10.
    Ahora bien, el problema de la narrativa es uno muy grande si has jugado al primero. Huecos increíbles en la narrativa en según que puntos, decisiones confusas que toman los personajes que, al haber jugado a la primera entrega, se hacen aún más confusas o incluso pesadas; una temática buena aunque saturada por varios elementos políticos que para nada le hacían falta al juego (aunque esto no empeora la experiencia de juego, pero la intención de meter eso a posta y como sea está ahí), desarrollo de los personajes casi nulo por parte de los co-protagonistas y uno muy pobre para Ellie. Todo esto alimentado por una base narrativa que se limita a la venganza (típica) y al perdón (típico) hace que el final de este juego se vea venir después de haber jugado las 2-4 primeras horas. Eso es lo peor de un juego, que tras jugar un poco ya sepas cual puede ser el final.
    Como resultado tenemos un videojuego servido en plato de diamante, con un genial aspecto; pero de pésimo sabor. La historia se disfruta, sí, pero si no se ha jugado a la primera entrega. Al principio es de 10, pero conforme avanza va empeorando y empeorando. Siendo finalmente rematada por el final, que de un 4 pasa a un 1.
    Conclusión:
    Fans de la saga, podeis jugarlo y disfrutar de él, pero no lo asociesis con el primer juego, porque es una soberana patada en el culo para este. Un sinsentido total.
    El resto: jugadlo sin problema, lo pasareis bien.

    Slap in the face for fans of the first LoU! Yes graphics, sound design, voice acting etc are great. Technically its super impressive BUT the story and the writing are completely abhorrent this time around. This game has none of the charm, heart or soul of the first one. Do not support people that spit on your beloved characters.

Я сам его не проходил, сидел рядом с другом, с которым мы вместе стримы ведём, он её проходил, а я скучал и терпел. Так вот, эту я, естественно, проходить сам тоже не буду. Обзоров и начал прохождений мне вполне достаточно, чтобы понять, что из себя представляет эта игра. Тут такие же глупые, неестественные диалоги, озвучка диалогов, такое же глупое поведение людей и других персонажей. Игра пытается претендовать на реаличтичность вижена, на реалистичность физики, поведения, но при этом во всём видна такая тупизна, просто ужас!!!! Лица людей не похожи на реальные лица, поведение, походка не похожи, диалоги не похожи на реальные. Физика животных, как и внешний вид тоже не естественные. В самом начале увидел, как лошадь бежит по снегу, и это так небрежно сделано, да ещё и физика движения лошади вообще ничего общего с реальностью не имеет, не говоря о физике её взаимодействия с внешним миром, со снегом, на которые она наступает. Кстати, такую же фигню я заметил и в отношении человеческих взаимодействий с предметами и окружающим миром. Вообще ужасно проработано. И это в игре, которая хочет казаться реальностью, фильмом! Короче, жесть. Дальше, сюжет. Скукотища полнейшая. То, что там показывают и то, что приходится делать по сюжету, не вызывает никакого интереса. Приходится через силу это всё делать, потому что надо. В общем... Дальше продолжать не буду.. И так понятно всё, в каком духе дальше речь бы шла. Я не могу похвалить эту игру даже за графику, в отличие от других ребят и обзорщиков. Отстой, а не игра!!!!!!… Expand

Everything from the incredible graphics on PS4 pro, to the small interactions are incredible and they should be proud.
    THAT'S ABOUT IT.
    If incredible story telling is simply a matter of trying to create the most absurd plot choices that invoke disgust, anger, confusion out of a person than by all means give Druckmann an Oscar. This was a joke. First of all, the idea that "revenge is bad" or "Killing people is inhumane" isn't revolutionary and if I'm being honest I think Neil has the wrong idea about humans. Sure we're capable of causing suffering but come on killing someone with their hands up playing on a PS Vita for the hell of it seems a bit much. So no, humanity isn't all going to **** and I doubt living through an apocalypse makes people more hellbent on causing suffering.
    Second, in addition to putting you through this profound conclusion that different people have different experiences, the characters are mediocre at best. Gone are the days of Joel and Ellie having a complex relationship that lifts Last of Us I to soaring heights. Nah, now it's "I'm gonna kill you" and "No I'm gonna kill you". People are gonna try to say these negative reviews aren't real or whatever. But perhaps, people really didn't like the game and don't care Ellie's a lesbian (we knew that since Left Behind).

    Anyway the experience you'll get is going to be depressing. You'll be absolutely amazed by the scenery and depth of the world. You'll have small dialogue moments when you'll pray that the characters show any semblance of common sense. And then right when the game seems like fun you'll spend 4 hours "exploring" and solving "puzzles" that are a matter of playing fetch and throwing a cable. Never in my life did I think this game would be so bad. I wish I was right because it was that much worse. And I'm sorry to myself and to everyone who waited 7 years just to spend 30 hours decapitating dumb runners.

    Tldr; Nobody cares Ellie is gay, we still liked TLOF1. This game is bad, assumes the worst out of humans. Story is there just for dramatic effect. Think Neil Druckmann reading YouTube clickbait and going that's great add it. Still Naughty Dog is the best in the business and can only hope this knocks sense back into them.    … Expand

Can't believe this game has fallen into the SJW woke BS along with other games that failed miserably due to the exact same reason.

    Imagine waiting 7 years for this, the story is absolute trash. Some people might be upset about the agenda they're pushing, but for me this is just bad writing. There are plenty of female, minority, or gay characters that I love in other games. Overall, this game fails to deliver a real ending/coherent story and felt more like filler rather than a proper sequel.

Rather than focusing on a good story it's driven by propaganda and a leftist agenda. Wish i could just forget this game. I don't understand why they have to push ideals on people.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Visually stunning. I did enjoy the gameplay but to call it groundbreaking is a vast overstatement. Its polished on the work from the first installment several years ago for sure, but it's to be expected given the resources behind such a well established studio. The biggest let down for me is the story. I'd draw comparisons with the GoT series. TLOU1 is much like the first few seasons setting the story rich with lore and a mix of anticipation and wonder in a strange new world.

    TLOU2 is akin to the last seasons where the story itself plays second (maybe thrid) fiddle to the proverbial mic drops/shock factor to justify itself. In much the same way as GoT, the ending makes you wonder why you even bothered in the first place.

    I'd even say if you had a choice in the the final decision it would have made up a few more points personally. But instead it's more of a childrens bedtime story trying to shove its own conflicting brand of morality down your throat at the expense of any replayability or sense of accomplishment. Now I get the whole revenge can backfire thing.... But this isn't a new concept... It has already been done... Just ask anyone who's watched the various endings of the Count of Monte Cristo.

    I can't help but think I've played a different game to that played for the critic reviews.

    For me the story should be foremost for any game, backed up by well polished and novel gameplay concepts and UI.
    I feel this concept was lost somewhere along development and as such feels like a step backwards from the achievements from its predecessor.    … Expand

    So ignore the people buying and playing the game.. but keep listening to the crazy echo chamber that has zero to do with the people and only harm you...
    The game is amazing.. As everyone said the story is horrible.. Joel being handled differently might have made me think better but still, its bad. Its awful.. All this game does is offend everyone intentionally.
    Even Trans people should be offended.. They use stereotypes that people whom hate them think of them as..and does not represent most Trans people..and you made violent etc. Its just wrong..all of it.
    There is no way it should have a good score.. I will agree that it should least get 5.0 because everything else was just better from the first, other then, oh I dunno, the entire story/game itself..
    Im still a lil confused at whomever your internal PC voice is because of how they handle the Trans person alone (since they are trying to make it a new thing..) that which they knew on its own would draw controversy.. Why.. That is like being the people who used to say why blacks (kill them first) and no gays..) but they handled even that in a bad way..
    This whole thing is just confusing.
    (Btw these are the people driving all the companies to placate - not really change..so only feeding fires.)

    For clarity, I did know about the way Naughty Dog and Sony had been acting like a child having a tantrum. They went and tattled to teacher with Youtubers and Twitter users, getting accounts closed/struck (the worst being over a meme...pathetic) so maybe that coloured my perception.

    In conclusion, I think I will be extremely wary of Naughty dog in the future, I thank them for TLOU 1 which I loved but this left a sour taste and tbh I'm likely to look at the Xbox rather than Sony for my next gen in the hope they will act more like adults. :(    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I found myself in a hole by the 20th-hour mark, the game in general had been kicking me in the stomach again and again in the perception of a higher form of art. In the COVID-pandemic era, where people are dealing with real emotionally turmoil and trauma, as the lack of social interaction and feeling of isolation continues, where we might find ourselves locked within our doors and preparing for a second-wave, this game is unnecessarily bleak and makes you feel as though no hope remains in the world.

    The characters, unlikable, the story, illogical, the gameplay, boring. The fact that people are rating it so high is just because it tries something new and edgy and not based on actual merits. Good graphics are a traditional requirement, not something that justifies a 8 automatically. The gameplay has the AI and characters working in illogical ways, I literally had one character entire body jerk in a unnatural fashion because it got stuck on the side of a walkpath completely breaking the immersion. Joel was absolutely the best part of TLOU, with Elle a far second, and honestly this Joel deserves his fate, as his character is not consistent with his first game values. The needless vengeance cycle of a narrative is boring and uninteresting, especially considering one faction is 100 times more interesting than the other, and then try to make you care for both of them.

    I did not finish the game, nor do I care too, I even spoiled the ending for myself because there was no drive any longer, I merely took a long breath, stood up from chair, and turned off my Console. That game will be deleted from my library, because even with context, that ending is far more insulting and showcases that they are too scared to double down on their own bleak world. To try and weasel out a happy ending when you went at lengths to paint a foreboding and unloved world to have it just 180 and scam out of us... no, the game should have ended roughly 90 minutes in, when you had certain characters meet their fate, they all should have had the same fate, because you established this bleak world, and that is what people would do to survive. You are such cowards Naughty Dog, you could not even stick to your own convictions.

    I am going to give this a 3/10 because It has mediocre game-play and exceptional graphics, as that is what the benchmark should be for those two. But the lack of innovation, the narrative inconsistencies, the stupid mistakes characters make that go against everything they stood for as characters, I am going to pour a glass of whiskey for the legacy of the TLOU, because in my mind, them driving off into the sunset was the only ending to this video game series.    … Expand

    A good game mechanically speaking and a beautiful game in terms of graphics, you can see the effort that the devs/graphic team and the QA team has put into this game, but unfortunately a complete disaster in terms of story telling. I had to stop playing after a few hours, I felt just too disgusted to continue hence my low score.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The critic reviews made it seem like the first half of the game was Ellie and Joel oriented, but Joel dies in the first hour or so of playing the game. The trailers even outright lie to make it seem like Joel will be a part of Ellies path of vengeance when he pulls her away and asks "You think I'd let you do this on your own?" And later character swaps him with Jessie instead. Joel dying was expected, but it was so poorly done that it leaves a bad taste. Parts of the game came off as a teen drama. Dialogue about ex girlfriends/boyfriends, breakups, pregnancies, cheating etc. They've skipped ahead several years and you're expected to just already be connected to strangers. The character and relationship development is non existent. You spend most of the game chasing after Tommy with Dina and finding Joels killers, getting some revenge on the way and the toll it takes on Ellie, which is decent. When you finally get face to face with Abby the game just pauses and sends you back twelve hours to see her side of things. I knew you would be playing as Abby but I expected it to blend more seamlessly. Instead it feels like all of your progress is ripped away for the sake of sympatizhing with someone you've been hunting down and it's not done well. She comes off as self righteous and holier than thou. When you're finally done with her part you get back to the scene you left at and you're forced to fight Ellie as Abby. You shoot tommy in the face, beat Ellie and Dina almost to death, and then let them go. You get a short piece of Ellies life with Dina on a farm, rasing a child together. Ellie has severe PTSD over Joels death. Tommy comes in with info on Abby. He's now disabled and is separated from his wife. When Ellie isn't sure about going, he screams at Ellie for breaking a promise to him. Ellie ends up leaving Dina behind to find Abby, who's been captured by a group. Ellie is nearly captured by those same people and goes to their location to find Abby, releases her, fights with her and ends up letting her go, losing two fingers in the process. When she returns home Dina is gone and all of her things are in one room. She tries to play guitar, but it doesn't work as well. After a flashback of talking to Joel about trying to forgive him for lying, she is seen walking off in the distance. She loses everything for nothing and so does Tommy. The story is a 0/10 and the only thing that gets it a few more points is how gorgeous the game is and the one sentimental flashback of Joel taking Ellie to a dinosaur/space museum. That was the best part in the whole game and that's honestly sad.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you don't care about the story line you have to buy this game. As the beginning i want to say that it was obvious: second part had really small chances to jump over the first. I love all Naughty dogs games, pre-ordered new ones and bought copies of remastered after completing them on previous consoles. Watching the trailers and game play was preparing me for perfect AI, planning strategy and enjoy the adventure.
    Creators succeed in some of that. AI still works weird, sometimes they hear my steps, in other situation they cannot see me face to face. Hope this will be fixed in future patches or in real life game level. Shooting is almost the same as in first part, not all enemies die after head shot, people are alive after shotgun shooting. Melee fighting is full of blood and violence, it's probably the best part which i liked in this game.
    Stealth is not variable, the amount of bullets is really small again, it looks much more funny, when in some scenes and clips the amount of ammo is infinite.
    Physics, optimization and graphics are awesome, i am not a specialist, but this game works in HDR 4K without freezes and lags, loading is super short comparing to Uncharted 4 for example.
    Storytelling: I've got the main idea about violence forwards us to more violence and Elly decides that enough of that. That everybody is equal and we have to protect our private life and don't be shame of that. But Naughty dog, answer please, why you give me to play for steroid woman, who kills our favorite hero, who all game follows pretty guy, who doesn't want to be with her because of her mental sickness, she doesn't want kids, she doesn't want to be happy, she doesn't want to live peacefully, all her life is war and vengeance. Why the most dramatic moments are going around pregnant women? You are showing us strong independent girls, who anyway become women, with letter W. They need love and understanding, doesn't matter how they look like, they are following their basic instincts. Even after all this story of Abby, i didn't feel anything good about her, her father didn't want to give Elly a chance to live and any of us would do the same as Joel. Elly made friends to go far way away from home to payback and she stops after that, becomes mommy? Saving Abby's life after she felt bad all these years, seeing flashbacks, cannot sleep, with Dina? Are you serious?
    I am disappointed and really sorry. Sorry for the creators of the first part. I was ready for the propaganda of feminism and lg bt, even about comparing/showing religion as some sect and showing how girl wants to become a boy, but writers destroyed our story, our love, which we felt about father and daughter. Tries of showing bad guys as good ones didn't succeed. Thanks for showing cuts with Joel, It was really strong. Thanks for the game, even after all my negative experience, it's still better than 90% of games today. You crushed one more second part in history of movies and gaming, after all these licks and how you act with your workers i give 3/10, because their work has been destroyed. ''I don't think i can ever forgive you for that. But i would like to try.'' You followed hype and your own wishes, instead of listening to the fans and ignoring our feelings, hope you will learn from this. If i knew what will be in the game, i won't buy it. I will not buy any story in this TLOU part II world, even DLC's.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. i am the biggest last of us fan, i just made an account to rate this game, i have so much to critique for but let me give u the main point. the game's vision is extraordinary but they way it was implemented was so poor that it hurt credibility of naughty dog.
    the game tries to show us that they is no main protagonist and that everyone has a balance of good and evil in them even in ellie and joel. in the ending ellie spares abby to prove a point that she is better then abby but what neil druckmann fail to understand is that ellie killed so many people just to reach abby, don't these people lives's carry any weight and why doesnt ellie not have a change of heart before and spares those lives rather than have a change of heart when she got hold of abby. doesn't that mean all those lives she took to get to abby was for nothing and makes her decision to spare abby even worse.
    in fact there is a point in the game where she beats a girl to death with an axe till she gets ptsd from it she didn't have a change in heart back then. the game revolves around revenge so keep it that way.but the game actively goes in a way to force u to like abby and empathize for her even though she relentlessly beaten joel to death right after he saved her.
    the game actively tries to force u to be tolerant to the obnoxious plots, bad pacing, horrible characters and pushing agendas that clearly don't fit in the game like feminism/trans/LGBTQ it feels forced especially the sex scene.
    all in all the two things things that would dramatically improve the game was they way joel's death was to be handled and replacing the characters with more interesting ones that are relatable and convincing. while rearranging the plot to fix the bad pacing.    … Expand

They take interestingThe Last of Us 2 is disappointing. Naughty Dog has already carved their names into gaming history with their consistent story-driven single-player games, but this one feels uncharacteristic of previous titles. They experiment with new things and new characters, but overall it turns into a story that feels lackluster with characters who I struggle to identify with. They take interesting steps to help represent the LGBT community which is totally fine, but this kind of writing just makes them look bad.

    The performances themselves are top-notch, but the writing itself is strange. Naughty Dog just drops you four to five years into the future after the first game and you're immediately introduced to a plethora of characters. Unfortunately, we never see these characters develop much through the course of the game - most of their already-established friendship is just through a few lines of dialogue regarding their past. Every time Ellie and Dina run through a few lines of dialogue together, I'm stuck wondering "who is this person, and why do I care about her?"

    I got to see Joel and Ellie's characters bloom naturally in the original game, but this one blindsides you and forces you to engage with their dull characters. Ellie and Dina's relationship doesn't seem well-written at all; if I had gotten a chance to see their previous encounters (other than what was shown in the trailer) I think I would warm up to their relationship more. The story isn't really shown to us; rather, it's told to us through exposition-ish dialogue.

    Another thing with the characters are they seem so...different from the first game. Their personalities have completely changed to the point it sticks out like a sore thumb; you're left wondering "why did she do this?" or "why would he befriend this person?" I don't feel motivated to protect one of the newer characters introduced. With every death of my companion, I feel less and less interested in the character being killed.

    The pacing is bearable at times, but a lot of it cuts off with flashbacks and more exposition. I don't get the structure of the game; it is being far too ambitious and telling multiple stories with multiple characters at once, and attempting to solve all of their characters' story arcs within one game. It invites plot-holes and the story becomes a mess. There are way too many characters being introduced and killed off without seeing their arc complete.

    I don't watch things naturally unfold in this game - things just happen. Rather than see someone get into a fight that leaves two characters bitter about one another, a side character just talks to me about it to make me understand. Ellie's personality is so jarringly different without much rhyme of reason other than "it happened years later, so she's changed" explanation. There's this jarring disconnect between player and Ellie that takes you out of the immersion instantly.

    The gameplay isn't bad however, as almost every component from the original is improved upon. There's a new prone mode that allows me to crawl on the floor. Breaking glass and upgrading guns are satisfying. It's fun to get into these sequences where you need to sneak around an area full of infected. Running from them still gets the adrenaline pumping. The challenge is still there and it's still as fresh as ever.

    Exploration can be a chore at times. Big areas with empty spaces - that kinda jazz like Ubisoft.

    Unfortunately, due to Naughty Dog developing a game that is so story-centric, they put all of their chips on story rather than the gameplay, and it just doesn't feel right. None of these characters were written well; it's a run-of-the-mill revenge story between two factions that ultimately boils down to a bland game with zombie portions. There's plot-holes everywhere and it doesn't seem like the well-crafted game we've come to expect from Naughty Dog. Why should I play the game again if I don't care about the characters? I can see the strong bond between Joel and Ellie, but I don't see or feel the bond between Ellie and Dina, or even Ellie and her friends for that matter. I roll my eyes whenever new characters get upset.or sad.

    The game takes no step forward in exploring the actual dystopian world with the Infected. Instead, it opts to create an army of uninteresting, boring characters with their own internal issues, and tries to suture them up in one 25-30 hour long game. The story is uninspiring and is one of those cliche revenge stories you've seen a million times over.

    I do regret buying it at full-price. I'd save your money. If it were on sale for $19.99, maybe I'd consider picking it up. I don't think this kind of quality lives up to fans' expectations.

    Score is 4/10.    … Expand

    We waited 7 years to get some Agenda thrown at us. The characters dont act at all like in the first game, not because they grown as a character but because the story wants them to. This game is the worst stuff I played in the last five years.

    I don't know what to say about this game. When i played the last of us back in 2013 i was also watching the Game of Thrones. You guys may call me stupid on this comparison but i used to say Neil Druckmann is R.R. Martin of games. Because it was so beautiful that i had changed my views about how a good game should be. I am not from a very wealthy family my father was a school teacher and to earn better living he was part time home tutor. The people he used to teach were landlords and very wealthy. When i was graduate i became tutor to those kid's kids. , i used to see kids playing PS2 and i was fascinated by its graphics. i was fan of games since i was 7 years old. Big fan of KOF. My financial condition did not allow me to buy it but still after saving money I bought PS2. Played many games but one day I brought The God Of War. Oh my god what a game that was. I played 1st and 2nd . Now i was waiting for 3rd part. But unfortunately Part 3 was released on PS3 and i was way beyond my buying power furthermore there was no chance of buying pirated copy. So i watched entire game on Youtube. What a game that was !!!! what a game ... So I once again saved enough money Bought PS3 only to play God of War 3. and first game i bought was God of War 3. No matter i knew entire gameplay and story. But it was so good that i baugh it for $50.
    But as for the last of us 2 i admit i spoiled the game for me right when leaks were out. I still watched entire gameplay. I search for even a little bit thing that would force me to buy this game. But i didn't find anything apart from some very tensed moments.
    1st time Ellie goes kills everyone who never wanted Joel dead they were only ready to go because abby was there friend. Comes back home with broken nose, Jesse dead and Tommy's leg broken and losing one eye.
    2nd Time Ellie goes all the way killing people to kill her right when I was at my orgasm she left her hand and let abby go.
    WHAT THE HELL!!!!!
    If you guys are following the walking dead. People are trying to go back to their normal life by developing things. They are not only being savages or cannibals. But in the last of us 2 we didn't see hope in any one's mind that he will try to make world as it was before. You only 2 factions. many things could have been done to make this game playable or i should say buyable but you keep watching stupidity after stupidity. For eg. instead of unnecessary flash backs they could develop a gameplay of Tommy. We wouldn't mind playing as Joel's brother after watching how badass sniper he is. Shooting the guy in the head, who spits on Joel was so satisfying but it would have been more satisfying if it were we playing as Tommy. But no!! Mr Neil wanted the girls to handle the Job. But unfortunately his girls failed horrendously. Neil Should know to get a baby (Outcome) he need a dick with vagina there will be no outcome if two girls will be rubbing their Viginas with each other.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just finished the game and i would like to express my disappointment about the storyline.
    The story falls apart since Joel's death. A series of events begins without sense but with a clear objective, revenge. A revenge that will never happen because Naughty Dogs decided to teach us a lesson, revenge is not good, going to play the guitar is better than killing your '' father '' murderer. The problem is that time lapse between Joel's death and the journey to hunt Abby, it doesn't make sense. Everything we do until we reach Abby is meaningless because we did not meet our goal. Everything we kill on the long road does not make any sense, the behavior of the characters is unreal. I can't understand why Ellie doesn't kill Abby, I'm still looking for the answer.
    Speaking of Abby there is no point in her inclusion in the saga. Literally in this game the protagonists are women, we play with women all the time and we play with Abby, the game forces us to play with Abby and give it undeserved power and prominence.
    The missions between scenes are totally unnecessary and long to realize that the story goes from bad to worse.
    The power of women, I need to emphasize it, the game revolves around women and the vague idea of ​​"women are also strong" that develop in a shameless way. They don't mind giving us a good story they care about giving us tweet lessons from 2019.
    The end is terrible we played 5 hours to kill Abby we lost 5 hours playing throw because we are not going to kill Abby. WHY? JUST WHY? WHAT HAPPEN WITH ABBY AFTER SHE LEAVE? WHAT HAPPEN WITH ELLIE after the end? The end of a game cannot leave you with so many questions. STUPID QUESTIONS.
    The end makes you want to cry, to cry for the trash you just saw. It is so bad that it makes you want to cry. As a fan of the saga I am 20 years old and at the time I was 13 or 14 when I played the first game with great enthusiasm waiting for the next one. I met with friends to talk about the first game, we talked about its details for hours, assuming how the story will continue. And now, 7 years later we are given everything we had not asked for. The protagonist of the first story is Joel. The story should continue with Joel and end with Joel. They decided to start a meaningless path impacting the players with a totally and absolutely unnecessary and unjustified death. We have the chance to play with Joel for 10 minutes... great...
    I hope that a third part will never come because knowing that in this second they have not developed anything to the characters, rather they have taken them off, in a third part they would kill Ellie to put an overweight dark-skinned person surviving the infected. Because of course, it is not fair that any overweight person survives the infected and it is not fair that all the characters are white.
    The in-game action is minimal and static, the infected are there for you to take your time killing them add nothing to the story. The behavior of the enemies is unreal, for example, because the boy with the scar on his face does not shoot Dina when she is on the ground ... He decides to strangle her. On 3 occasions the enemies defend Ellie so that she is not killed. Come on man, that in real life would not happen even if the girl was the most beautiful in the world.
    Even if you have passed the game ask for a refund, I sincerely believe that players deserve a refund when they don't like it and absolutely can't like anything about the game. The only good thing it has are the graphics. But no one wants to pay that much money for a walk-on-the-grass simulator.
    Each video game development company has the right to develop their own video game as they wish. Like the buyers and it is hard for me to say it because it is very sad, video game lovers have the right to defend their point of view about the work done by said company. In this case Naughty Dogs has made the worst video game of all time and has given an important lesson to other developers, do not let your ideologies override the beauty of telling a story.

    Fairly mediocre. Beyond the controversy this is a game that plays average and does little to push gaming foward. Play it if you must. Otherwise skip.

    Politics is sure to get some high marks from official agencies, but the game's plot design doesn't care how the player feels. How much score do you expect the player to give you after all these years of waiting？

    This game has spectacular graphics, approaching at times photorealism. It also has decent mechanics, if you have enjoyed the TLOU that is. Its story however is an absolute abomination.

    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]
