    While visually stunning, after the infamous scene happened, the game honestly just felt like such a drag to play. If it had to happen, I wish it would have at least been written and executed in a better way. In a way that wouldn't put such a damper on the spirit of anyone who played it. You can't just open the game on such a note and expect the player to still be having a good time.

You can't just open the game on such a note and expect the player to still be having a good time. And for the latter half of the game, I understand that they want us to sympathize with 'the bad guy', but at that point, even if you give me the saddest, sobbest backstory, I really wouldn't care. I don't want to know it, and I don't want to hear it. I don't WANT to sympathize with this character, period. After such a disgusting way to treat a beloved character, trying to have me sympathize with the bad guy for almost half the game just felt like a slap to the face. I understand that this is a rough world that they live in and dying comes unexpectedly and brutally, but before anything, this is a VIDEO GAME. video games are meant to be enjoyable and immerse the player to keep wanting to play more, but this game did just the opposite. Critics say this ga,e is being 'review-bombed' by 'homophobic' or 'transphobic' gamers, but I cannot stress enough how much that is not even close to the case. You look at other games that feature an lgbt relationship, and they still get a high rating provided the story is good enough. End of the day, this is just a lazily-written game and an utter disappointment. This wasn't the sequel we wanted, and even after waiting 7 years for it, I wish it never happened. Expand

    Even though the game seems to have improved in many aspects, it's story ruins it, the story is bland, it contains lots of fillers and the ending makes you feel empty, because it conveys very little to no emotion, making the protagonist's journey pointless

Joel dies by she hulk who plays golf, then we get to witness she hulk have sex later on with another dude.

    Dont even bother. The SJW BS feels so forced and out of place in this game. And the game forces you to play a character you hate for like half the game, why?

    Ill give it a 2 because the game worked and looked mostly visually pleasing. But that isnt even saying much since its a console game and is stuck with 30 fps anyways.

    I created an account just to drop by and vocalize how disappointed I am after waiting 7 years to see a sequel. I will pretend this sequel was only the first 20 minutes of the game and that is it. Nothing that happened in that storyline makes any sense to me. It is absolutely disgusting.

    SIDE WITH ABBY! ARE YOU INSANE?, SHE CONVINCES ALL OF HER FRIENDS TO GO OUT AND KILL JOEL, BY THE WAY SHE TRICKS HIM, KILLS HIM LIKE A DOG AND JUST BECAUSE SHE PETS AN ACTUAL DOG IN THE NEXT SCENE SHE HAS HUMAN SIDE? JUST LIKE THAT? YOU GOT IT ALL WRONG.NEIL DRUCKMANN WANTS YOU TO CARE SO MUCH FOR ABBY SO DISGUSTING AND OBVIOUS SCRIPT MECHANISM TO FORCE YOU INTO BELIEVING THAT SHE GOT ASIDE WITH ABBY! ARE YOU INSANE?, SHE CONVINCES ALL OF HER FRIENDS TO GO OUT AND KILL JOEL, BY THE WAY SHE TRICKS HIM, KILLS HIM LIKE A DOG AND JUST BECAUSE SHE PETS AN ACTUAL DOG IN THE NEXT SCENE SHE HAS HUMAN SIDE? JUST LIKE THAT? YOU GOT IT ALL WRONG.NEIL DRUCKMANN WANTS YOU TO CARE SO MUCH FOR ABBY SO DISGUSTING AND OBVIOUS SCRIPT MECHANISM TO FORCE YOU INTO BELIEVING THAT SHE GOT A LIFE OF HER OWN, WE'RE ALL HUMAN AFTER ALL AND WE ALL HAVE FEELINGS. WELL F**CK THAT, TRUTH IS (AND I DON'T UNDERTSAND WHY YOU AND OTHERS DON'T GET IT) THAT ABBY DID WORSE THAN JOEL DID BECAUSE JOEL DID WHAT HE DID TO SAVE ELLIE FROM PEOPLE THAT ACTUALLY WANTED TO KILL HER ( REGARDLESS THAT IT WAS FOR THE GREATER GOOD) BOTTOM LINE IS SHE SAVED HER AND THAT'S WHY KILLED THOSE PEOPLE WHICH IS VERY VERY DIFFERENT FROM KILLING IN COLD BLOOD WITH YOUR FRIENDS FOR A PERSONAL AND SELFISH REASON WHICH IS TO FEEL BETTER WITH YOURSELF. NOW THAT IS TRULY MEAN AND IT CAN'T BE COMPARED, YES YOU READ RIGHT, IT CAN'T BE COMPARED TO ELLIE'S QUEST FOR VENGEANCE BECAUSE THE CLOSEST THING SHE HAD TO A DAD SHE LOST NOT BECAUSE OF SAVING SOMEONE BUT FOR A PERSONAL GRUDGE WHICH IS WHY THIS GAME IS DEEPLY UNSATISFYING BECAUSE ELLIE'S REVENGE IS NOT JUST A MERE FIXATION LIKE ABBY'S , IT WAS IN FRONT HER POINT A, POINT B HE WAS HELPLESS, AND THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT C AS I DON'T GET TIRED OF SAYING IT WAS ONLY TO THE ENTIRE SATISFACTION OF ABBY.NOT TO COMPLETE HER DAD'S WORK , NAH SHE DOESN'T GIVE A F**CK ABOUT THE CURE, SHE JUST WANTS HER SELFISH NOTION OF JUSTICE DONE. SO DON'T FALL INTO LIKING ABBY JUST BECAUSE NIEL DRUCKMANN SPOON FED YOU THE IDEA, YOU JUST DIDN'T THINK IT THROUGH ENOUGH. THIS VIOLENCE AND VENGEANCE IS A NEVER ENDING CYCLE IS JUST SO MUCH IN THE NOSE WHEN YOU SEE THE LAUGHABLE SCENE "LOOK MY DAD JUST SAVED A ZEBRA HE'S A GOOD GUY" YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE WHERE THE STORY IS HEADING. FOR F**KS SAKE IS LIKE WATCHING DRUCKMANN WITH A PEN WRITING "VENGEANCE IS A TWO SIDED STORY". I MEAN IF THAT'S RELATABLE PEOPLE CAN BE JUST SPOON FED WHATEVER BY LAME WRITERS. IS JUST SHALLOW AND AS I STATED ELLIE DOES HAVE REASON TO TAKE VENGEANCE, ALTHOUGH THE GAME TRIES SO HARD TO MAKE IT SENSELESS, FACT IS ELLIE IS WAY MORE ENTITLED TO A REVENGE SINCE SHE BEGGED ABBY AND ABBY CHOSE TO MURDER JOEL WAY WORSE THAN THE WAY HE KILLED HER DAD AND FOR MORE SELFISH REASONS (YOU CAN CALL JOEL'S REASONS SELFISH AS WELL BUT IT WASN'T PERSONAL WITH ABBYS DAD AND SHE F****NG KNOWS THAT) WHICH WAS TO CAUSE HIM PAIN, TO CAUSE ELLIE PAIN , ACCIDENTALLY YOU CAN CALL IT BUT NONE THE LESS, SHE MADE HER WATCH. BOTTOM LINE IS WHAT ABBY DID IS WORSE, CLEARLY WORSE THAT WHAT WAS DONE TO HER THEREFORE ELLIE IS ENTITLED TO A PROPER RETALIATION WHICH SHE DOESN'T GET BECAUSE DRUCKMANN TRIED VERY HARD TO CONVINCE US THAT ABBY'S A NICE PERSON, "NICER THAN ELLIE".SUDDENLY SHE HAD A CHANGE OF HEART AFTER AND READ THIS PLEASE, AFTER SHE GETS WHAT SHE WANTS THEN SHE BECOMES AWARE IT WAS A MISTAKE AND DECIDES IN THE MOST SHALLOW STUPID ILLOGICAL WAY TO MAKE AMENDS WITH THE UNIVERSE HELPING OUT SOME RANDOM KIDS, THAT OBVIOUSLY HAPPEN TO SAVE HER LIFE BY ACCIDENT. WELL AS REALISTIC AS THE ATTEMPT GOES GUESS WHAT IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY, IF YOU BY ACCIDENT HIT SOMEONE WITH YOUR CAR AND KILL HIM YOU STILL GO TO JAIL. ABBY CLEARLY DESERVED TO BE BRUTALLY KILLED AND WE WERE DENIED THAT IN THE WORST POSSIBLE MANNER (BY MAKING US BELIEVE SHE AND ELLIE BOTH HAD THE SAME REASONS AND MOTIVATIONS FOR VENGEANCE WHICH THEY'RE NOT SORRY) "HEY ABBY'S A PERSON TOO" WE DON'T CARE, IT'S A LAME STORY. WHY? BECAUSE WE PLAYED A PREVIOUS 30 HOUR GAME TO UNDERSTAND THE STRUGGLE OF A MAN TO KEEP ELLIE SAFE QUITE SIMPLE YES AND NOW YOU WANT US TO BE INVESTED MORE IN THE SIDE OF THE POOR DAUGHTER OF THE DOCTOR THAT GOES AROUND SAVING ZEBRAS BUT DOESN'T QUESTION HIMSELF TWO TIMES MORALLY ABOUT KILLING A LITTLE GIRL BECAUSE HEY "F**K IT'S NOT MY DAUGHTER".NO, YOU JUST CAN'T GET AWAY WITH THAT SIMPLE AS THAT, YOU CAN'T JUST SWITCH HORSES IN THE MIDDLE OF A RACE, IS THE SAME WITH A STORY, YOU JUST CANT ABANDON THE CHARACTERS THAT WE'RE INVESTED IN TO SAY LIKE "OH NOW I GET IT ABBY IS GREAT ALL SHE DID FOR THOSE KIDS AWESOME WAY BETTER THAN ELLIE F**CK HER AND JOEL" HE SHOULD'VE DONE A GAME ABOUT ABBY ONLY WITHOUT JOEL OR ELLIE IN IT IF YOU WANT TO MAKE SOMETHING AS BOLD AND STUPID AS THAT.

    Gameplay is solid, but the story made key mistakes. Spat on a beloved character, and forced excessive amounts of unwanted gameplay as Abby, Joel's killer. Just not a satisfying ending either, as Joel gets no justice, and Abby walks free while Ellie has nothing .

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Compre el juego el día que salió y lo jugué el día siguiente. No vi spoilers antes del lanzamiento.
    Entonces así pienso del juego:
    Pros:
    jugabilidad, gráficos, escenarios, sonido, música
    Todas esas partes son innegablemente muy buenas. Son de primera categoría. Claro que los controles a veces se sienten raros, pero lo hacen en la mayoría de los juegos. Sería injusto decir que este juego no está actualizado en términos de todos los puntos que mencioné.
    Contras:
    Historia, diseño de personajes, desarrollo de personajes, agujeros en la trama.
    Entonces, incluso con todas las ventajas, este juego es realmente muy malo. NO tiene sentido que Ellie actúe como actúa en ciertas partes del juego, pero eso no es lo más importante sobre por qué es malo. La razón es: desarrollo del personaje. Si matas a uno de los personajes más queridos al principio del juego (Joel) y quieres traer nuevos personajes jugables principales como Abby, DEBES traer MUCHO más historia de fondo para que el jugador se sienta con ella. ¡Quiero decir que MATÓ a Joel! ¿Cómo haces que le guste al jugador? Trae más y más historia de fondo antes de que ella haga eso. Deje que los jugadores jueguen 2-10horas como Abby cuando era niña o lo que sea. La historia de fondo de ella se cuenta básicamente en 10 minutos y luego su padre está siendo asesinado. ¿Eso es? ¿Y ahora tengo que sentirme con ella y entender por qué mató a Joel? Yo diría que NO. Esa es una historia débil. Muy muy débil. Luego están todos los otros personajes nuevos. Nadie es simpático. Como realmente. Todos se sienten vacíos.
    Este juego es simplemente malo. Hazte un favor y no lo compres. Las reseñas que escribieron los periodistas fueron compradas por Sony o están fuertemente influenciadas políticamente. Lo triste es: debido a eso, los mismos periodistas probablemente harán que este juego sea GOTY.

    Amazing graphics with no real innovations to the gameplay, but that’s passable for “if something isn’t broken, don’t fix it”.

    The story however is a jumbled pile of vomit that’s been spewed out of Neil Druckmann’s mouth. TLOU 2 has no regards for what that the first game had built upon. Character development is thrown out the window and is replaced with characters that no one gives a shot

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not much more to say that hasn't been said. Finished the game yesterday and honestly just felt really depressed and cheated by the treatment of the characters and the story. I can see how ambitious the game was and appreciated many of the action sequences and set pieces that were used. The gameplay is fine, straight out of 2013 with the addition of a jump button and a dodge. Great. Really where the game falls flat is in it's story. Story about revenge is fine, even killing Joel is fine as it provided a good motivation for Ellie's portion of the game, however the writing and execution could have been so much better. And if you are going to make the story about revenge at least give the player the option to take revenge. Abby gets hers and doesn't think twice, Ellie loses everything and actively chooses not to take revenge, which just made no sense given what Abby has done to her. I was a huge Naughty Dog fan before this game, but this game has given a lot of room for that to change.

    As a quick side note I even think the story could have been left EXACTLY as it was but instead of using Joel and Ellie just give us a whole new set of characters that we were not 100% invested in already.

    This game hurt.

Abbey was a complete psycho and Ellie showed remorse. Bad writing and never improved any of the game play mechanics from the first. It seems that Nick Druckmenn never wrote that much of the first one, if he got total creative control over this... It was the same thing over Uncharted he took all the credit but done very little! His coworkers called him a hitchhiker! Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The awful way game marketing lies to you about playable characters and uses cheap tricks to make you feel bad about yourself is horrid. The way the story is written is abominably terrible; ruined a franchise. Terrible beginning which makes you watch a terrible death of Joel, who would've never shared his details with anybody in the prequel - but an even worse ending culminating in the baddie fishing for absolution triumphing over Ellie. The game only 'subverts expectations' if you consider that to be a synonym of disappointing the fanbase. Expand

Si bien hubo algunos momentos realmente buenos, la mayoría del juego se llenó de agujeros en la trama. Solo tomó elementos de lo que funcionó para el primer juego sin entender lo que los hizo convincentes. Parece que este juego fue hecho por otro estudio, pero no lo es. La jugabilidad básica se ha mantenido igual (para bien o para mal), los acertijos del entorno casi han desaparecido. Así que elimina la historia de la mesa y te quedará con el juego superficial que te hará buscar otro juego. Expand

Graphically, for a PS4 title, its completely unmatched. What blew me away most was the attention to detail. Walking through stores and seeing models and textures that were specifically made for that one location that you'd visit for 5 minutes. I've spent most of my time playing just zooming in and being awe struck by the details. They do what Naughty Dog does best, and makes it feel like more than a video game. You can tell that the amount of work (and money) poured into this game sets it apart from anything else you'll play.

    The game shines in so many places, but it lacks in so many others. The dialogue is unbelievable , sometimes bordering on laughable. Characters we grew to know and love, turned into caricatures of themselves. The "scene" that starts you on your revenge mission didnt make me feel heartbreak, sadness, or anger, it made me feel cheated. It was just an excuse to propel the story forward, a story that at its heart is generic and lacking compared to the first. The dichotomy between Joel and Ellie was the heart of the first game. Seeing their relationship grow as they struggled forward on their mission is what made it one of my favorite video games of all time.

    This game and this world are brutal and unforgiving in many ways. I found it hard to continue playing. In the first game you had a compelling story that made you want to see it to its end. Not to mention you had two interesting characters that were together for most of the game. Hearing Joel and Ellies conversations back and forth broke up the oppressive feeling of the world. In this game I didnt care about the dialogue, nor did i care about the characters. They felt token, they didnt feel like real people with real struggles to relate to. This game definitely suffers from being too long for its own good.

    The gameplay is more of the same, with some minor improvements. I Enjoyed getting back into it , but after a few hours found myself dreading the combat sections again and again. Honestly the best parts of the game were just walking and discovering the environment and environmental story telling.

    The thing i disliked most was the political messaging. I play video games to escape from the insanity of modern day politics and social media. Not only is it front and center here, but its forced down your throat. In the first game, Ellie turning out to be gay felt natural, it felt like it was organic and just a part of who she was. In this game they dont spend more than an hour reminding you of her sexual orientation or of those around her, through cutscenes, dialoge, and your notebook. It consumes her identity now, instead of just being a part of her.

    Im really conflicted about this game, probably because the first was one of my favorites, but I felt let down. I need to give it two separate ratings. As a game, given the detail, the voice acting, animation, and over all polish, i would give it a very solid 8. As a sequel to the original? I give it a 5. You take away the polish and detail that Sony's open pockets give you, and this game is a generic let down masquerading as art.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. É triste ver um dos melhores games em enredo (primeiro) se tornar isso. O Jogo é sem dúvidas o mais técnico de toda a geração, mas se perde na narrativa, a vingança de Ellie se torna tão obsessiva que chega a ser pior que a de Daenerys (GoT), aliás, os finais são ruins em mesmo nível (O final de TLU2 é igual ou senão pior que os finais de GoT, Dexter e Lost juntos) e nem falo pela morte de Joel, que foi literalmente fútil! Pior morte de um personagem relevante em uma série de games na história dos games, eu nem consigo pensar em outra que se equipare e nível de futilidade... Mas o pior ainda está por vir, a "Salvação da Humanidade" se torna somente uma qualquer, deixa de ser heroína para ser um personagem randômico, munido apenas de seu ódio e necessidade de vingança, uma vingança tão mesquinha que exceto pela qualidade técnica é tão chato de jogar quanto Death Stranding. Triste, muito triste. A luta entre Ellie e Abby é a única coisa que salva no final do game, mas poderia ser algo que fizesse parte da história e não a principal parte! O que sobra é uma lição de moral com relação a vingança (que é interessante, mas como o resto de toda vingança, poderia fazer apenas parte do game e não ser o principal contexto). O melancólico fim, que dói e sem dúvidas nos faz chorar, mas poderia ser muito mais marcante, a morte de Ellie seria o encaixe perfeito, pois depois de perder todo sentido de sua vida (tomada por Joel), não aconteceu, a vingança, não foi completa, enfim, creio que daqui alguns anos eu possa pensar que foi o melhor final, mas no momento, estou apenas decepcionado.

    I'm a huge TLoU fan, so I couldn't wait for the sequel. After reading about Druckmann putting his progressive politics into it years ago, I was already worried. But I hoped for the best. Until the leaks came out. I was worried even more, even though Druckmann and the games media kept saying those were "fakes". Well, the leaks were all true, and I found out the hard way.

    I don't understand how Naughty Dog could just spit (quite literally) on beloved characters they themselves had created. Not only that, but the story is a total disaster. I can only be thankful to the brave person who leaked it all. Although I was dumb enough to buy the game (I'm gonna sell it though), hopefully those leaks and the whole game being on Youtube now have prevented other people from making the same mistake. The story of The Last of Us ended with The Last of Us in 2013.

    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.
