    "Saw 3D" of video games. Laughable story with no moral, abundance of violence and one distasteful sex scene. This game has absolutely nothing to say. The writer may think it does, but what it tries to do, other games had already done better and with more finesse. Then again, being more subtle than a sledgehammer is not exactly difficult.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Fans of the series waited 7 years for a follow-up to one of the greatest stories of gaming. Would the sequel develop on finding a cure? Exploring the roots of the virus? New adventures with both Joel and Ellie? F*** no.Let's kill a beloved MC for shock value, demand players to play a shallow character (joel saves her life and she just shotguns and golfs his head in) that no one gives two **** about,
    plot the entire game on revenge after revenge and in the end force our character to do exactly what most players dont want.Plus there is so many plotholes through it all,and most character's are like "Hey it's me this is my story"(and one in particular just exists to justify a pregnency, then dies like a **** dog) and then we never see them again.

    One thing, that i did like story-wise was the relationship of Ellie and Dina. It felt natural and believable.I enjoyed that.But it all falls apart on this mess of a story

    Gameplay is awesome, but the story ruins it all.(After all it's a narrative story) Also, Sony false advertised JOEL in the trailers. JOEL appeared on many parts of the trailers pointing that there would be an adventure with the duo, but they fking replaced it with Jessee.Also the flashbacks of TLOU were altered to comply with this story.

    A mess of a game. How low did naughty dog fell.

    Worse that this **** game is the "critics". How dare they all give 100's on this mess?
    I wouldn't accept the rumor that sony pays for reviews, but in this case...it's more than evident.    … Expand

    A bleak trudge through a largely disappointing series of combat encounters that relies on shock value to carry its clumsily-paced story. The gameplay has seen some improvements from the previous entry and the environments and character models are impressive, but the whole experience feels needlessly maudlin, dwelling on traumatic events with an insistence that borders on pornographic.

    There’s something off with the tone of this one, in comparison with the original, beloved game, and the difference is jarring enough to keep me from enjoying either the story or the generally repetitive, uninspired gameplay.

    If this were an original IP, it would be much easier to rate it higher. To evaluate it as a story in a different genre, and praise its gorgeous environments. But as it stands, as a sequel, it fails to successfully deliver its simple message, ending on a note that feels pompous and ridiculously proud of itself even as it lands its last, resounding note (and dialog scene) with a hilarious lack of self-awareness.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. (Yes it's my first review and no, i'm not a bot or a hater, I just felt the need to say what I think of this game)

    There's a thin line between hiding things on trailers to let the players experience the story without spoilers and creating false cutscenes for the trailers which is what happened here.

    Probably the best looking console game so far, incredible facial animations and motion capture with mostly good voice acting, the problem is that this things alone can't make a good game without a good story and even more so when we are talking about tlou sequel.


    Everything that was loved about the first game is destroyed here, the characters from the previous game just don't feel like themselves, there are many other plots that I can imagine in seconds that would be way more interesting than this revenge story, there are just so many questions that end without an answer.

    In terms of story, part II is an inferior game, gameplay is improved but becomes boring way before the game ends.

    Let's just say I feel betrayed, the game fails at making me feel empathy for the new characters and the ending "missed the notes" it desperately wanted to make me feel.

    Most fans should stick with the first one, the message there is powerful, here it's hollow just because.    … Expand

    This game is not special, the plot is cheap and there is nothing unique about it or the characters involved in it. The game constantly tries to force strange things in, like being trans or whatever. It all felt out of place. There no issue with the character being trans, but why did the game make it a big deal?! It had NOTHING to do with ANYTHING. at all. It just left me in the same state i was in for 90% of the game, which was that i just wanted to get to the next section so i could just know what happens next. Surely, the way this game started, there must be a reason. there must be some sort of redemption..

    And i only kept playing because i wanted ellie to do just ONE thing by the end of the game. JUST ONE. and even then it wouldn't be fully redeemed for how they treated beloved characters from the first game.

    And so i get to the end of the game, and i didn't even get what i wanted. (Pretty sure, what everyone wanted). Instead i got a boring, terrible, awful, nonsensical ending. Where everything that was experienced (as horrible as it was) was all for nothing.

    If the game ended with ellie waking up and the whole thing being a dream, it would have been a better game. That's how awful this steaming pile of garbage is. Stay away from this game if you wish to hold good memories of LOU1.

I still like the crafting mechanics but felt it could have been improved seeing as a similar AAA title 'Days Gone' had done this element better in their game last year. I discovered that I had a lot of glitches in my playtrue. I ran into instances when fighting enemies where I fell through walls into nothingness repeatedly. Other times, my character became stuck on invisible ladders while climbing walls. If it happened once or twice, I would let it slide but it felt like the game was made with a first day patch in mind. From a graphics standpoint, I expected much more. The graphics are improved since the last game circa 2013, which is expected, yet are not as groundbreaking as I have heard from friends. They are quite similar if not slightly worse than the graphics from 'RDR2' and 'GOW' which came out more than two years ago. That being said, the graphics were one of the things I enjoyed about the game. The story was difficult to get through. I was able to understand characters motivations but felt that the execution was lacking. I enjoyed Ellies relationship with Dina but could not connect with any of the other new characters in the same way. I felt that Jesse's character in particular could have been fleshed out more given the games running time, which ran longer than the first. It made me hard to sympathise with these new characters when the revenge plot kicks in. I think the game lacks the ambiguity of its predecessor. The first game made characters organically feel grey. Joel, Marlene, Bill and Ellie all had their own intentions that you could understand even if you disagreed with it. Most of the characters in the first seemed to show human emotion towards their actions, both the good and the bad yet the sequel strays from this. Even the worst characters in the first showed a glimpse of humanity in their actions yet the sequel takes all of the humanity out of the characters. Overall, in a story driven game if you find yourself at times bored and at others wishing to play other excellent story driven games such as 'Life is Strange' or 'Telltales TWD' then you know the story has issues.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The gameplay and the mechanics of The Last of us 2 are pretty much what you would've expected. Some new features make it more dynamic than the previous game and although not very innovative it still works pretty well. Players who liked the last game will surely enjoy this one too. But all the sneaking and fighting was never the point of this franchise. It was the story. And herein lies the big problem. Be warned, there are massive spoilers up ahead.

    Joel's murder is staged in a way that we, the player, instantly share Ellie's longing for revenge. As we set out to confront his murderer, every action is driven by that desire and while being very brutal we have little compassion for the organization said murderer is part of. During her journey we begin to understand that Ellie will have to sacrifice her own well-being and emotional health in order to avenge Joel's death. The arch of tension is build up very nicely until the point of Ellie's confrontation with Abby. And then nothing. Just a gigantic cliffhanger. As we desperately want to see how the encounter ends we are thrown back three days just to play as Abby. And here is where, in my opinion, the game takes a very wrong turn.
    We experience Abby's own sad background story, find out Joel killed her father and are tangled up in an unconvincing love triangle. Abby starts to question her believes and changes from cold blooded killer to a caring person. She shows compassion towards her enemies and saves two children. And yet we couldn't care less. This is because from the very first minute we slip into her role, we see through Naughty Dog's blatant attempt to make us relate to her and to see more in her than just Joel's killer. Even worse, we feel lectured. It is as if the developers are teachers who are resolving a conflict by forcing us to understand our opponent's motives.
    Abby's crime is so heinous and leave us so shocked that we just don't care. As her story unravels piece by piece we get more and more frustrated as we can't build a connection with her but still have to play just to advance the plot. We understand and comprehend why she did what she did, we may even come to the conclusion that we would've done the same. But we still care to much about Ellie's loss. A few hours of gameplay as her main antagonist is not enough to forget that, let alone sympathize with Abby.
    Unfortunately this is so annoying, obvious and unconvincing that the experience is ruined beyond repair.
    Everyone old enough to play this game knows there are always two sides to the same coin. The message of the game is clear. The way it is presented, however, does not work and leads to a very frustrating and disappointing experience.    … Expand

    - Forced diversity
    - New characters are awful
    - Old and beloved characters are treated awfully and are unlikeable now

    The Last of Us (2013) was one of the best games I have ever played in my life, hands down. It always felt like more of a movie than a game, because of how well written it was, with the initially reluctant partnership of Joel and Ellie, the ups and downs, the wise crack cheesy jokes, the environmental storytelling, and the father & daughter bond that they shared and developed throughout their journey. The progression and character development that took place was truly something special that cemented these two as one of gaming’s iconic duos.

    The Last of Us II (2020) does not have the same deep emotional connection between any of its characters and it focuses more on preaching personal politics of its developers (and one absolutely out-of-touch consultant), rather than crafting an interesting, competent story with established characters. What you end up with is simplified, petty, revenge plot, that does not break new ground or take any risks.

    I’ll get the good stuff out of the way first. Naughty Dog is incredible when it comes to crafting atmospheric games with excellent audio, the wilderness of Jackson, and the streets of Seattle are an absolute master craft in environmental design and graphical quality, not unlike the first game, but certainly enhanced to a stunning level. I also have no complaints with Gustavo and his competence with crafting an excellent soundtrack that fits the dreary, post-apocalyptic setting.

    Where do I begin with the bad? There is about 15 hours of walking around with fluffy dialogue thrown in while you explore an empty landscape to find a few extra crafting materials, where you end up in a gunfight or infected encounter that you will try and stealth your way through, but ocassionally fail so that a cutscene or set piece can play out. Rinse and repeat.

    This game does nothing new, it has identical gameplay mechanics to the first game (with a few Uncharted mechanics thrown in) which, while that may not seem like a bad thing, makes the game rely heavily on its narrative to differentiate its experience from its beloved predecessor. The problem is, its narrative and character development are subpar at best, and downright awful at worst.

    The story tries to make you take it seriously, but after a couple hours of gameplay, you realize that this game has forced you into a standard and contrived revenge plot that you have seen 1000 times before. The back half of the game has you playing as Abby, who regardless of what she has gone through, I have zero attachment or sympathy for, and again, only to jump back to Ellie, who I am now starting to dislike? Who thought this plot was a good idea seriously?

    Anita clearly came in and made sure that all the diversity checkboxes were hit, white men are incompetent, all the females have no physically attractive characteristics, and to mention bigotry and fascism wherever possible. Though I’m sure Neil had most of this setup already. You pile this crap on top of the way employees were treated, Sony’s censorship of Youtubers who discussed leaks, and add in an incoherent, generic story… you realize that there’s not much here that you haven’t seen or heard (because the leaks were accurate) before.

    All of this, culminating in an underwhelming ending that is an absolute slap in the face to everyone who played and loved the first game. Last of Us (2013) DID NOT NEED A SEQUEL. It is an absolute step down from the first game, and gets a 4/10 from me. This is game is an outright travesty, and I'm sure it'll win awards and accolades because of the sales, progressive demeanour, and paid off critics, but you would be a fool to believe that this is anything but another corporate cash grab on an established IP. This is the gaming industry now.    … Expand

The second point is the most grievous. It shows both a lack of skill and laziness in creating a game that both wants you to experience a story or moral, but does so by not giving me the chance to make those decisions myself as the player, thus I don't really care.

    The story was uninspired and simple. The characters were unlikeable and unbelievable. The violence and the bizarre sex scene where over the top and out of place. Sometimes, not showing has more impact. Sometimes, less is more.

    As a game, this sucks and is a waste of my money. This would have been better suited as a movie, as that is what this is. A 20+ hour long interactive movie where I have no agency over what happens, about characters I don't care about and a story that is uninspired.    … Expand

    As a big fan of the first game I was really dissapointed with the lazy writing of the Part 2. They managed to write Joel to behave nothing like the original character. He was always playing safe and always keeping the distance to people, because he knew people would come after him and Ellie. That alone breaks my heart as a fan of the original story.

    Todays games are much more than just games and developers know that. It's multi dimensional art. It's a very powerful media and this time that power was used in a wrong way. To send a strong political message.

    Ripley from Alien and Sarah Connor from T2 are one of the best action characters in movies. Including both genders. They were great because their stories were written so well. The story and the characters supported each other. This time the characters got in the way of the message that Naughty Dog wanted to tell. It's sad that they sacrificed one of the greatest games to the altar of politics.    … Expand

    Never did I think they would do that to our beloved characters from the first game. The second portion of the game becomes extremely mundane and boring and makes you not want to continue. Gameplay was good for the first few hours but becomes boring very quickly. The story was not well written and there was obvious political pandering.

    There's a lot to say about this game but I'll be brief.

    This game had the potential to be 10/10. There were gameplay elements and visuals that would have been stunning if I wasn't so frustrated, angry and despondent.

    The marketing of a game hasn't been so misleading since metal gear solid 2.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I will never be able to describe the feeling I had playing the last of us. The countless play throughs Brought me joy That other games could not.
    Now I found myself playing part two just wanting to finish the game so I can get it over with. I’ve waited so long as so many other people for this just to be ruined by one person’s political/morale views.

    STORY: Having Joel die for the sake of plot is such an lazy act of writing. I couldn’t even comprehend it happening while waiting for the game to release. As I witnessed his death I closed open my eyes and I had to takeoff my headphones and cried. I was crying for the fact that I couldn’t believe that this was actually happening I waited for years and supported naughty dog for them to sh** right in my face I balled out crying Knowing that the character i respected died like he was nothing. And for that it killed my enjoyment of the rest of the game. Having this take place in three days adds to the laziness. This game is very similar to uncharted in terms of how “action packed” it is in the span of time. It was very believable that Joe had that many encounters while traveling across America protecting Ellie, now Ellie fights a group of 20 people/infected every 10 minutes and is ready to go go at the next moments notice.

    CHARACTERS:
    I do not care for any of the characters except for Tommy and Eli everyone could died and I wouldn’t blink an eye. Having me play as Joel’s killer felt like I was just spat in the face constantly while playing.I remember tearing up when Tess died I remember tearing up when bills lover didn’t want to be with him I remember tearing up when Sam died and his brother killed himself now I could care less. most characters are cringe or annoying. unfortunately the only non-annoying character is Jesse which people might call me sexist because he’s a male.

    ELLIE: what made Ellie special was the relationship between her and Joel, having the father daughter bond or Having them travel across America and her seeing all these monuments and museums and asking these questions on how things actually were before and Joel knowing and explaining and seeing her in disbelief is what made these two characters solid, now when they go to a Monument, Museum or store they always say the same thing “I can’t believe they used to do this” or “I can’t believe they used to do that” haha hehe humans where weird. Now that the connection is gone I just feel like I have to be forced to care about there funny jokes of the past.
    ABBY: Being FORCED to play as Abby during a big portion of the game was not enjoyable at all. The fact that they made her the “female Joel” made me want to stop playing immediately. combat was fun yes, but I did not want to play as Abby I did not want to see her story I did not want to see her feelings because I did not care. For some reason this game try’s to make you understand her, the only thing I understood Was that she needed to die.

    GAME PLAY:
    Naughty dog always was good with game play, but in this game it waste so much time of you walking around during these “game play” cut scenes, That you find yourself bored and just wanting to get it over with. I’m actually kind of disappointed with some of the variations in game play stealth killing people is the exact same Animation over and over again no matter what character you play which is lazy and boring. I found myself having the same exact death animation as well ; getting shot in the head. I did not die any other way.

    Graphics: Beautiful but wasted.

    This is such a forced game that I hope it bites Neil in his a** this is propaganda at its finest. I was 13 when the last of us came out I DO-NOT care that Eli is the main protagonist, so it’s not me being a misogynist this is Neil being a beta.    … Expand

    They ruined it! The story is awful, gameplay is too easy like its just walking simulator type of game. I want a refund! I can't believe I paid my hard earned money on this! so sad! I want my money back, it doesn't deserve to be with my game collection, it's like shaming me every time I see it. DON'T BUY IT!!!!

    What a let down from the first game. Sacrificing a good story to a virtual signal to a group of people that are not even your target audience is such a bad decision. Instead of using resources on paying the developers, naughty dog is paying the shills to say this is the best game ever. What a joke. Save your money people.

    great graphics, decent gameplay, HORRIBLE story. In short, it's like when you get together with your friends, and one of them starts talking about politics. DISAPPOINTING.

    This isn't about LGBT characters or politics. I'm trans. This is about the game **** on Joel and Ellie and the plot making no sense. The game focuses on surprising audiences, and in doing so has the characters make terrible decisions. There is no respect for beloved characters or good storytelling

    This game is very political and virtue signaling and has bad writing. Killing characters off for no reasons.

    This game is awful and playing it will render you physically disgusted.

    The only positive of this game is its graphics. The gameplay is the same as 7 years ago (unremarkable), but drags on horribly thanks to terrible level design/pacing. The whole basis of this game is its story and character development. The absolute mutilation of this story/character set needs no introduction.

Completely forced, contrived, and repulsive leftist themes/agendas were shoved into every inch of the game, thus completely ruining the game in the most physically repulsive way possible.    … Expand

    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]
