    The reason why we enjoy TLOU 1 is its beautiful story, which is totally ruined by TLOU2.

    Graphics are beautiful, gameplay is basically the exact same as the first game, wich is a shame considering they had 7 years to improve on it, the story is definitely the worst part of this game, if this wasn't a sequel to the first TLOU i'd give it a solid 7/10, but because the story is a huge downgrade and the gameplay is basically the same i give it a 2/10.

    This game manages to take its predecessor’s uniqueness and trample on it. Repetitive gameplay and clunky controls plague the game, shock value is inserted for cheap affect instead of building likable characters, and the moral ambiguities of the previous game are nowhere to be seen.

    Horrible story. The graphics are great. It has nothing to do with inclusion, but the story is laughable and very frustrating. I can't feel sympathy for characters despite the pointless story trying so hard to get me to feel sympathy for enemies.

The writting and events are so out of touch with everything, that finishing the story will be an incredibly ardous task.

    This was just an okay game. The story is and WAS the most vital part of the first game. This story was extremely lacking, and the payoff at the end was underwhelming to say the least. Other than the graphics and gameplay, this will be a game I will be looking to trade in for Ghost of Tsushimsa.

    I am a huge fan of the first game, so much so that i could beat it in a single sitting on hard. Loving every single moment, perfecting my runs though encounters without damage or getting caught. Every play through id acquire more and more attachment to the characters.

    This game though, i cannot articulate a sentence powerful enough to convey my disappointment. I feel like they did not consider the prior fan base attachment at all. Sure there are heartfelt moments in the game such as the museum scene but after what they did to Joel. I wont accept this story as something meant for their fans. I felt no attachment or sympathy for anyone in Abby's portion of the story.

    As for the the visuals, sound, music, voice acting, it was great. Just as expected from naughty dog. The game play is similar to the first which i cant complain about but at 29 hours game time, i got extremely bored of the repetitiveness in enemies. It felt like the same layout with different background. Playing on hard, i found the game was too easy and forgiving on resources. I used maybe 2 health packs the entire play through. One on the tutorial and another when i got bored and rushed enemies in the final chapter. There was always snacks and resources to grab everywhere if you explored enough.

    Just based on the story, if i could go back in time, id cancel my pre-order and pretend Joel is still living a life watching over Ellie in Jackson with Tommy and Maria. This thing is just a heartache for the fans of the IP.    … Expand

Well unfortunately in this game it's not the case, and no I havent played the game and u don't even need to play it to find out how trash the story really is, the only time where u actually might need to play it is when u want to find out how good the gameplay is, second off this game is a waste of 1. 60 bucks 2. Almost 25 hours of ur life, u can simply just open youtube and watch the whole game without having to spend 60 bucks, but that's up to you if you want, third off if u actually put graphics aside for a bit and compare the first game to this one u will lose ur **** this game is just so **** disappointing to just see this series going from one of my favourite games to this waste of time is just ridiculous, I've watched a streamer play this game and I **** u not I fell asleep the gameplay is so **** repetitive u literally do the same **** over and over again and u don't even feel like ur progressing through the game, all u do is just literally go. Back and forth until u just quit the game, if u were to remove cut scenes from the game no one would play the **** that's because no one plays the game for the gameplay, only the story which surprisingly they **** it up, Joel dies in the first two hours of the game and u don't even get to play with him, he dies in the most dumb way u can possibly think of by trusting and saving some random person he's never heard of then he proceeds to walk into their basement with his brother Tommy with other like 7 people who are some random people, yet in the first game Joel and Tommy barely trusted anyone which doesn't make any sense, after Joel dies by abby, the devs of this game literally force u to play as the character that killed Joel for like 10 hours at some point in the game which obviously makes u feel frustrated, u literally build ur relationship with other characters on the game and then they die because Ellie wants "revenge" yet at the end of the game u don't even kill abby u just spare her, oh and what does Ellie get when she spares her? oh nothing really she just loses two of her fingers and loses her girlfriend and her baby and Tommy, the game makes u feel like a idiot for even spending the time to play it there's nothing to benefit off from playing this game, the best way to describe this game is this "at this point the game doesn't feel like a story, it feels like a **** message"… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is by no means terrible but it’s pretty close. Those 0 ratings are by upset people who are trying to prove their point. However I believe they dropped the ball here. This game looks and plays fantastic. Although I felt like the game got too stale and boring less than 10 hours in till the end of the game. The AI actually somehow got worse than the last of us part 1. Enemies grabbing you and the ai will wait to get the enemies off you. Sneak attack in front of The human players. And they won’t be alerted. games best moments were the flash back sequences. between Ellie and Joel. However about 2-3 hours in a very impactful event happen which makes you wish the game took a different approach. This character death would have been more impactful if the game latter half wasn’t so lacking in character development and with its new characters. The game makes you play as a new chapter named Abby to chase down fan favorites. I couldn’t help my self to not care for Abby. Due to the fact she’s after revenge of a death of a character from the first game. A character that wasn’t even a secondary character. More of an NPC that has less screen time than Sarah. Does this game deserve all the hate it gets. Yes. I understand and agree 100%. I’m giving the last of us part 2 a 4/10. Everything looks great. But the game is buggy/glitches. Annoying repetitive gameplay. Terrible story to those who loved the first part. Maybe it could have lost the playable Abby parts of the game to shorten the game length and it’s worst parts of the game. And added more with Joel and Ellie, the best parts of the game. The game started with Joel. And it’s a shame he didn’t get more to do.… Expand

Then there are the countless flashbacks that drag the game on, with pointless quests and an insane POV during a fight. Moments of extreme violence became desensitized earlier than halfway through the game and often seem baseless. The only good aspect was of course the graphics. Some moments I almost enjoyed but they were tainted by the residue of how poorly all the preceding and sequential events played out. Very disappointed with how it turned out; not worth a single penny.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is an opinion that is told by me, a huge fan of The first Last of us.
    I finished TLOU2 from A to Z to make my own and unique opinion of this sequel. Well. I don't even know where to start. I am so, lost and disappointed with this game.
    7 years for that.

    I was one of those who had seen the leaks but still wanted to play being a big fan of The Last of us 1.
    History had marked me. The relationship of the main characters also. Joel in particular seeing in him a father I had never had.

    I was well aware that he would certainly not survive in this second chapter. I was quite ok with that btw. But in this way? WTF happened?
    Joel deserved so much better. His story with Ellie too. How do we get there. How can you spit so openly on the fans and completely destroy a story that was incredible at first.

    My note clearly goes to the graphics wich are incredible and the music let's say.
    The rest, the story, the characters who are ghosts and who have never interested me, the writing, the logic and THIS endgame were an incredible mess. I truly am disappointed.

    "The game is about revenge" they said. "It's worth playing" they said.
    No.
    This game is about a beloved character from the community who is killed like **** by a golf club. His death will want to be avenged by Ellie who when she has the opportunity will simply let go the golfer.
    Ellie loses a father.
    Ellie loses two fingers.
    Ellie loses his girlfriend.
    Ellie loses the ability of playing guitar (the only memory she might have kept from Joel)
    Ellie loses everything.
    When and where is revenge? And why do we get to play Joel’s killer ? What is wrong with u ND ? I don’t want to play this character and i’am not interested in it. I can understand that they wanted to write a story that would explain to us that revenge leads to nothing and that we can end up losing everything but damn not after having taken us Joel THAT way after 2 f****** hours of gameplay !

    Joel's death doesn't bother me more than that because I expected it like any fan. What bothers me is the way they did it, the lying trailers, the manipulation and to repeat myself : the story etc.

    I have never been emotional once in the game. Comparing the last of us 1. At one point, all this violence and hatred didn't even do anything to me. What I mean by that is that it was too much.

    I really and sincerely hope that ND will never think of a possible Last of us 3.
    They disappointed and spit on their community by offering this game.
    For me the game stops at the first one, chapter 2 will never have existed.

    Not to be "too" negative, the only thing that is really worth in this game are the graphics.
    Play without paying attention to the story which is very difficult for someone who did the first chapter.

    If you want to play a game and have never played TLOU1, want to see beautiful graphics and have fun smashing everything then play the last of us 2, you may not be disappointed.

    If you want an incredible immersion, a touching and magnificent story, also with pretty good graphics then play THE LAST OF US 1 !

    I was actually playing the real last of us story only when there were flashbacks with Ellie and Joel. That’s what The last of us 2 should have been. And yeah at some point, Joel would have died by saving Ellie or some **** like that or maybe not who knows, and his last words could have been « you’re always be my baby girl ».
    I don’t know.
    Deception.
    That’s all.    … Expand

The plot was there, the path to the gold was there and they destroyed.

    Abby knows Ellie and tells her dad to kill Ellie for humanity's sake.
    Killing dogs and pregnant women. The storyis a tick for tack revenge garbage. Story filled with flashback fluff. Could of been 10 hours shorter At the end after killing all these people Ellie then realises its wrong the point of this game is there is no point.

    At the end she let Abby leave. So you come all that way for nothing to let Abby go. Ellie loses her fingers family and ability to play the guitar. Left with nothing but a guitar Joel gave her that she can't play.
    Also the wlf seraphites and rattlers were poorly introduced into rhe story just like rhe expendable characters that no one cares about.

    But I was severely disappointed..

    Story

    To put it short, the story resembles a badly written fanfiction by someone who does not acknowledge or respect the reason that made people love the first game. The messaging of wokebess and diversity was pushed so much that it got way more screen time that could have been used to make the actual story more coherent and meaningful..

    Gameplay

    The gameplay is very stale, the new unlovable soulless characters make it even more of a chore than anything else In addition to no new significant improvements on the first games mechanics.

    Visuals

    The visuals and animations were the best thing in the game, there are beautiful landscapes and great attention to detail in the level design.
    Sadly, even that could not carry an atrocious story like this one.

    Verdict

    Before attaching a phobic description at me I’m not saying the game was disappointing because of the lesbian and trans galore going on in it (who characters slept with never mattered in the first game, not sure why it matters now but ok), I’m saying this because the story and messaging of this entire game is very badly done with little effort to make it mean something other than representation.. So please find a better use for your $60, invest in yourself, treat a loved one or help someone in need...Just make sure it doesn’t go to naughty dog because if this game indeed succeeds it will leave a taint in the gaming industry that encourages weak-willed creators to follow the atrocious trend of pandering and wokeness to get attention and legendary reviews on the expense of actually creating a good game with a meaningful story    … Expand

Trailers are misleading, as what actually happens in the game is different from what the trailers have shown.
    As soon as TLoU2 starts the aim is to make you hate the old protagonist and side with a completely new character who you are forced to play with not even knowingly you will be playing with that character for more than half of the game. ND aren't sacred and can be called out for making a mistake.

But she's also a lesbian so it's ok. The really revolutionary part of this game is the game-play. They did the unthinkable and added a jump button. This turns the game-play from a boring repetitive cover shooter to a boring repetitive cover shooter where you can jump, quite an improvement over the first game i must say.
    Of course all the amazing action is topped of with the story and the way they tell the story. This really feels like you're playing a movie, except it's a little longer. They added an entire host of cutscenes to really show how bad the KKK is and how cool the lesbians are. A man gives ellie a sandwich and she calls it a bigot sandwich. Empowering.

    For real **** this game. **** like this is holding the medium back and stupid little game journos that want all games to have political messages and just be movies that you gotta pay 460€ for can go and commit toaster bath.

    Terrible story, even if the gameplay is good, it doesn't compensate over the lack of character development, you see characters do things that they would never do in the 1st game, and playing as Abby is the worse.

    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]
