    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game epitomizes the problem of politicizing the entertainment industry. They sacrifice good storytelling and coherent plot lines to get across a political message. I’m all for the social inclusion and diversity, but killing the most beloved character in the worst way possible and having the entire game be about revenge, just to leave such a disappointment of an ending. Game was just such a let down.… Expand

This game does have great visuals and great gameplay, but the main focus needs to be the story.

    I believed you all notice that Ellie said she will KILL them all when she witness the dead of Joel.At that moment,I had already imagined how Abby you little son of **** will been **** up in the end.
    And you **** tell me Ellie let Abby go in the end???????
    Abby killed Joel in Ellie **** face with a **** golf clubs , a **** golf clubs!!!

    I can't believe ND had done this. Game-play and graphics -wise the game is top notch, however the most important things about ND games, which are the story and characters, are completely butchered. They are trying to create a realistic gaming experience while at the same time manipulate the narrative so that the players might be on the side of a particular character (Abby).

But it does not make for a compelling and intelligent story. Simply put, the characters are unlikable morons. Even Ellie and Joel are dumb in this game. So although the mechanics of the game is good, I feel no sense of enjoyment having to do stupid **** to get the story moving.Oh btw, they are trying so hard to be inclusive, it is embarrassing.… Expand

    The gameplay and graphics was fine but the story is absolute rubbish!!! They destroyed the game!!! Part of the Abby game is unbearably boring. This character is repulsive, but they made us play for her. I hope they will not do the third part of the game.

Spoiler - first i think Ellie's girfirend will be dead somehow (in an early trailer's joel appears, and he is in a good shape, aka not dead, naughty dog are you lie to us??) and and thats will be the main story reason to take a revenge, but nooo.... joel have to die, and a two 18 years girl take a lead...full believable... they are lesbian and taht's not problem (nowdays its essenctial, and have to be some Jewish reference in it too). They just killed a dad character, no family reference anymore , no good vibe. The story not that catchy anymore (smelling of sweat, forced) :(. I like the first one better.… Expand

    This game has some of the absolutely worst writing I have ever seen in a video game. The storyline caters to people who don’t play video games but like to complain about how video games aren’t politically correct enough. Overall The Last of Us: Part 2 is a shameful sequel to the great game that was the original in this series. Do not buy!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Played the game through once stealthy and pacifist-ish and a second time loud and murder hungry. I can confirm that both times it felt like a slog through miles of mud and grime. The only part of the game I really enjoyed was the upgrade mechanics and shooting, and even then, they were far from the best at it. The story was abysmal. I shouldnt need to suffer through 10 hours of gameplay for a few short segments with (a really dumbed down, almost like hes developing Alzheimer's or got hit in the head a few times, Version Of) Joel. Those little 15-30 min segments are the best parts of the game. You have your boy Joel again. Your supportive father figure. Haha You liked that guy? Hahah Golf club go KRRK.

    Joel didnt deserve to die like that. He deserved to go out fighting for his little girl against a horde of angry fireflys, or a giant zombie. Not to some **** who cant deal with her/his daddy issues.

    Go buy a Tomb Raider or Uncharted if you want this style of gunplay.

    Go play Literally anything else if you want a better story.

    Oh. And $20 says they force the Devs to make a DLC where you can Club Abby's brains out. #LongLiveJoel

    In my eyes, the story ended after the first one.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For a game that’s been been in production for 7 years its literally a last of us skin for uncharted 4. The gameplay has had minor tweets added to it after the first game but it just stays the same boring fight after fight all game through honestly the seven years must’ve gone into forcing shock mechanic so around every corner. The story is lacking and has no point, you spend the entire game slaughtering people animals etc without remorse as we watch Ellie spiral down into a crazed kill obsessed tiresome idiot completely destroying the Ian person built up in the first game much like Joel whom isn’t reduced to this complete polar opposite to who he wasn’t in the first game, and in the end you let the person your hunting go because that’s multi tier story telling aka flopping. You then realise that the entire plot was for nothing all the killing was for nothing and all your friends that died and suffered to get you you’re revenge does so for nothing it’s all pointless. The game in a post apocalyptic environment seems to still retain all of its politics it’ll lovingly force down your throat within its world despite the majority populous being freaking plant zombies. It’s also worth pointing out that all the straight characters in the game either get slaughtered off or get beaten and acquire such injuries that they might as well be dead because it’s would be better than dealing with the outcome on their bodies. Owen is killed, Mel dead, levs sister bang, The dude that hints that he’s slept with most of the wolves women and the guy that spits on joels dead body, dead without a second thought cuz i mean with the director being a male feminist who oddly looks similar to him I guess you gotta make it so the personalities are so far apartment or kill them quickly so you can’t make the connection, Abbie’s black doctor friend well Ellie went weed hacker on her because why not she wasn’t already dying right why not make her a pile of sludge, Joel swing and a beaten corpse, Jesse the only likeable new character booom for shock value even has a kid with Dina but he mustn’t know he mustn’t it would be bad if he found out for whatever reason. Tommy is the only one that remains after it all and he has one leg fully functional and a permeant mangled face so naturally he also needs to loose his marriage on top of that because why not drive my point further. Even Abby is starved to near death after nearly being sold to slavery and thrown into these crazy situations that no one would be able to get out of. But wait what about Ellie and Dina they where treated bad too, well no Dina got her head banged a few times and sure Ellie left her but she’s has a bigger family we never see back at the town so. Ellie got beaten to near death a few times but the entirety of the game is focused around her pointless effort to be stupid so she deserves it for all the crap she puts people though for literally no reason,She leave she her perfect family years after for a second time she’s allowed to live happy, and then doesn’t kill Abby to return back home to find no one there. Should have been a standalone game for £20-30 for 20 hours of gameplay we got split With a character we hate and continue to further hate as we play her. Isn’t even worth that much of a replay there’s no replay ability value.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The only good thing about this game is it's gameplay and graphics, but it feels like a schizophrenic monkey wrote the story to this game, the pacing was awkward, the deaths were so out of place and random, nobody even learned anything from the deaths that occurred. Joels death seemed too early, I would be fine with them dying, but the way he died and the way it went was so heart crushing and painful to watch, the whole game felt painful to play, only a few scenes were nice. I am unhappy with the fact I had to play as abby for 10 hours, I barely could manage to keep playing, I was ok with small scenes to switch the story up, but 10 hours of the person who completely destroyed the heart of the entire franchise abruptly? I'm sorry, it does not work. They tried so hard to make me sympathize with abby, but it is literally impossible on how forced it is. Same with going after abby AGAIN, it was so unneeded, and weird. I'd understand if you were going as tommy to get abby the second time, cause they have a full motive to do it. Ellie is living a happy life, and just throws it away? Come on. They legit just threw Jesses life away for nothing. Not even Dina learned anything from that. They had so much potential, but threw it to the ground. The Dina and Ellie moments were nice, same with the Joel flashbacks. Thats it though. Good gameplay, graphics, sadly that is all I can say.… Expand

    The story is horrendous, dark, bleak ,hopeless, nihilistic to the point of being gaming first snuff game.

    Definitely a new and darker take on the The Last of Us series. I understand the developers wanted to try something different, but this sequel is one of those instances where they should have set a few boundaries. People fail to understand why this game is hated by the series' own fans, let me give a quick rundown. The subject of this review focuses on one sole aspect of The Last of Us:Definitely a new and darker take on the The Last of Us series. I understand the developers wanted to try something different, but this sequel is one of those instances where they should have set a few boundaries. People fail to understand why this game is hated by the series' own fans, let me give a quick rundown. The subject of this review focuses on one sole aspect of The Last of Us: Part II, its story.

    The Last of Us: Part II is so alienated and full of itself, it essentially imploded in the storytelling department (something which garnered fans and made the first game so notable was its compelling story). The sequel is just so problematic in so many areas.

    There's a good base from the previous game for a plot with revenge as the central theme. The game completely wasted that potential when the story's execution was botched. The build up of the plot was so lacking, most of the character's decisions made little to no sense. The narrative fails to make you truly understand these pivotal decisions in the plot, as well as align your intentions with the game's. In addition to plotholes, there just so happens to be some awkward and unnecessary, almost petty-like, dramatics that don't seem to correlate to the main plot. I can't help but feel as if it was obvious were trying to add these for extra drama and sympathy points for the characters.

    Speaking of which, the characters and their relationships felt so lackluster, and to some extent even forced upon the player. It's especially hard to empathize. Again, this is because of the story is so messy and the plot so misplaced, they threw away opportunities to develop these characters properly and essentially add more depth to the story. Mishandling these characters was just an honest mistake at this point.

    Lastly, there is the unjustified ending. Not all endings are happy ending, I know since we are dealing with The Last of Us series, but after playing through to the end it just fails to make the players feel like they've earned THAT ending. The payoff afters hours of gameplay fell short of expectations and players were robbed of, not necessarily good but, a justified ending. A good narrative would have succeeded with that. This game does not.

    Gameplay and graphics-wise the game is very good, this is its salvaging aspect. I recommend you don't play the first The Last of Us to avoid total disappointment.

    Overall, I did not enjoy The Last of Us: Part II as much as I was hoping to. In comparison to its predecessor, the game not only failed to perform on par with its most significant aspect, the story, but instead just took a big leap backwards.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game was horrible. The game starts out very nice and for about two hours it feels like the game we wanted, but then they kill Joel off while Ellie watches. Now we have a revenge game which seems like it's going to go great right? Wrong. So Ellie hunts down these people that killed Joel but when we think we are going to finally fight this new character who is called Abby who was the one who killed Joel the screen goes black. Now we are forced to play as Abby for the same days we just played as Ellie just with a different perspective. So now the player is playing the character they hate for killing Joel for 10 hours which is about the same gameplay time played as Ellie. Sounds great right? No it isn't. Abby's gameplay is supposed to make us theplayer feel something for her character but how can we when she killed Joel? Anyways skipping ahead to when the screen went black with Ellie, Abby is ready to kill Tommy and Ellie but not before killing a new character called Jesse. Now you the player is forced to attack and hopefully kill Ellie who we were playing as? What? Oh yeah! So you fight Ellie as Abby and Abby gets the best of Ellie. Okay. So Ellie and friends return home and now Ellie is living a happy life with Dine a new character and her baby who Dine gave birth to Jesse's child? Who is Jesse? A new character Abby killed off. I know just listen it gets worse. So now Tommy show's up on this Farm Ellie, Dine, and their son are living on after he was shot by Abby during the meet up of Ellie and Abby. He is **** up from that which makes him a whole new Tommy. Tommy tells Ellie he has heard from traders that their is a woman traveling up the coast. So now Tommy wants Ellie to go to finally kill this Abby but Ellie has a family now so she can't go. Ends up she decided to go and try kill Abby again. Yes I said again. So Ellie gets to the end of the game but decides to leave her alive after you fight her??? Ellie returns home after this fight with Abby where she lost two fingers to Abby during the fight to an empty farm house. Dine leaves her with their son and she can't play the guitar anymore due to the fingers lost. Their are some nice flashbacks in this game but that's it. The combat is great and it's very satisfying to kill every enemy. The music and graphics are on point but could use a bit of a fix but the story is all over the place. 4 or 5 out of 10. Not a fun game makes's you feel like you did nothing but play a gsme about nothing.… Expand

Although the game is fun in terms of gameplay, the mechanics are similar to the first with added features like jumping onto enemies, going prone and jumping. Various of new enemies are introduced but it doesn't feel like it seems like enough enemies especially after 7 years you would think there would be a lot more especially for all the traveling you do in this game. Same style boss fights as the first one plenty of parts are predictable like how many times is the character going to run away from enemies and push the door open to create an "intense" moment. IMO it was played out Ellie fell through the ground so many times it was like oh no again, so boring. Although Ellie was my favorite part of the game especially her minimal screen time spent with Joel those were great moments in the game. Abby's part on the other hand was a big **** you to some fans, such a let down. Abby's character has no empathy, they expect us to feel bad form her father after seeing her side but IMO nothing redeems her for me after she kills Joel especially so early in the game! Literally 1 hour in you play as Joel in the very beginning for 5 minutes riding a horse to Jackson. Abby doesn't care to tell her friend Mel to stay put while she was pregnant, she has an affair with Owen while he was still with Mel and was pregnant! The addition of a trans character I have no issue with it just seems force at this point, I'm all for women power but these characters are so bad.… Expand

Record sales because of the previous title was amazing. The story and character growth from TLOU made me actually cry/tear up a few times, this game i was just disgusted by the story. Just about everything coming from Neil and NaughtyDog's mouth about this game before it went on sale was lies. If i could get a refund of my time playing this game i would.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don´t know how start this. I have no words to describe it. I waited to long for this game and now I have nothing. I feel cheated, cheated by ND. I feel ND has stolen my money. They use fake trailers to made us think that Joel will be in this part too, very important part of Ellie 's journey. This game would be about Ellie's journey with Joel. They use Joel to increase the game sales, that's all. It's disgusting. And after 2 hours of gameplay, Joel is dead in the worst, cruel and unnecessary way. What's the point of this? I knew that Joel probably die in this game, but wtf? His death is the worst thing i've seen in all my life. He deserved better than this. I have no problem with Joel's death, is the way he died that make me feel ill. Unrespectful, awful for a main character. Non sense. The game lost his sense in that moment for me.

    The worst part is when you discover that you have to play as his killer, the game force you to play as Abby and try to force you to empathize with her for 12 hours. What's wrong with you ND?? Did you think this is would be a good idea at all? ERROR! You can't empathize with a character who kill one of the favourite characters in the franchise. I don't care about Abby, I don't want to know anything about her, I don't care her life, i **** don't care. Her part is full of situations that nothing have to do with the real plot, are unnecessary, it's just filler to sell you a character like the good guy from the movie. Neil said that Ellie would be the only playble character, funny right? They hid Abby and they excuse themselves with the surprise factor. They lied again.

    The script is full of holes and non sense situacions like Tommy giving their names in front of a lot of strangers with guns or Abby telling Ellie that she killed all her friends, what do you expected?? YOU KILLED JOEL FIRST
    The game is full of violence, you have to kill a lot of people but at the end, surprise!!! The violence is bad my friend. That's makes no sense. All the Ellie's journey and Joel's death is for nothing, FOR NOTHING!!! Ellie can't forgive Joel for saved her but, she can forgive Abby for kill Joel.Really?? I can't. I forced myself to play the game, to see the end when i really wanted to deleted the game from the console, all the way and for nothing.
    The story is poorly told, a non sense.

    Visually and technically, the game is soooo impressive, the best thing that i ' ve seen in my life. But this is not enough when the story is really bad, when the story is poorly told and when you kill a main character with a poor and stupid excuse.

    I feel insult, they destroyed all the good things that TLOU had, they destroyed everything even the relation between Ellie and Joel, and why? I can't understand it. And I'm tired to read comments about you're inmature or homophobic, YISUS!! NO!! It's just i don't like how this is went, that's all. I'm not expected a happy ending because TLOU is always cruel, but this is too much. I play games for fun and for the feelings and this game made me feel miserable.

    The game looks beautiful, the writing is *competent* but incredibly uninteresting and the gameplay while also alright is an utter slog with how long this game is. Developers, don't focus on making the game as long as possible. Focus on your storytelling.

    Unfortunately this game overstays its welcome at the halfway mark, and then you've still got 10+ hours to grind through. Not recommended. Just watch a playthrough instead of buying it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Man I was so hyped for this game.... I spent every single day waiting for the release date. I sat on my sofa and started playing it, The graphics.... seeing Joel with those graphics was astonishing. His death was indeed a big loss, for me one of the biggest losses in game history. For the first time I had a real mission, I had a reason to keep playing it, I had an objective. But then they cut off my entire playthrough, all my effort was for nothing, they changed characters and suddently I had to play as my enemy. They've put this "enemy" idea in my head and then they tried so hard to change my mind through the next 10 hours gameplay. The final chapter I had to see one of my favorite characters lose everything, even her chance to venge her father's death. For me they killed both main characters and placed other null and bad writed characters just to use as pieces in a chess game or something like that. The graphics are the best for this generation and probably there will be no other game with such graphics. The gameplay is good and well design although sometimes it's a little repetitive and boring. The scripted cutscenes are so well done that you can barely destinguish whether it's a gameplay or cutscene. The game has a lot to offer in one hand. But in the other is just a poor writen story with forgetable characters and an awful, horrible chronologinal order. I'm so disappointed, I would never expect something with such low quality (speaking of story) from Naughty Dog. Neil Druckmann, you should listen to your fans, not try to make an unforgetable "revenge is bad" story. You surely can do more than this.… Expand

The graphics, the sound, the animation quailty, it's all top notch. It falls apart horribly by the story however.

    How am i supposed to believe that Joel, a man who in the orginal is a born sceptic of everyone's motives just walks into a room full of armed people, not questing their motives one bit? The same Joel that ran a car over a dude in the first one because he did not believe him to be hurt ( and he was right)

    Then they go an kill off Joel in a really unstatsfying manner, making you play as the person who killed him for a good portion of the game, even making you curb stomb Ellie. I never wanted to lose a fight in a videogame more badly. Throughout the game we never get an choice to not do some of the horrible actions you do, but the game is all too happy to rub your face in it, when you have to do them to progress in the first place.
    Then u get to the ending and you dont even get to have sweet revenge, but you let your enemy walk away. She effectively wins and gets all she wanted with nothing you can do about it, and you have lost everything good going for you.

Sure, it has amazing graphics, improved mechanics compared to the previous one and better AI. But after loving the first game and have waited so long for a story of Ellie and Joel, or a story that is consistent with their personalities, we find out that ND choose to change most of it.
    First, changing the CGI of their facial expressions and body (in scenes from the previous game) to make Joel look more weak and naive, and Ellie who always was a smart kid, turned to be a girl with numb expressions, instead of a strong girl. Therefore, changing the way they look and act was a way to broke their personalities (see Ellie in the final scene of tlou 1).
    Secondly, the narrative was really bad, playing with the "villain" is not something new in games, but to play with such an uninterested person and encountering a lot of shallow others characters with side stories just to make us feel something or acknowledge their beliefs (rather than telling a good overall story) destroyed the narrative or whatever storyline that ND wants to tell.
    About the SJW stuff, we all know that people that don't like certain types of characters will be upset, but that is not in anyway the majority of people who is criticizing this game. We know based on the presentations and panels of NaughtyDog, that Neil Druckmann has a strong opinion to not allowed sexy females in their games, and promotes feminism and sexual diversity. The players understand that, we love Bill in the first game, we love left behind (DLC) and much more Ellie, because their sexuality was not the story, but was who they were in the story.
    Now, ND shifts the narrative on purpose to make us play a game that is not about Joel, Ellie or even revenge, but to be shocked about ideas: "acts have consequences", "revenge is bad", "females are strong", "diversity is good", etc..and the story of Joel and Ellie was just pushed aside and presented as an attractive way to make us buy the game.
    I understand that Neil Druckmann and ND are in the path to put ideas in games, and that is ok for players who wanna buy it. But to sell a story in one way (see trailers) and deliver in another way totally different that what was promised (too much scenes were altered just to sell it) is a really, really wrong way to promote your ideas; and spitting on characters and stories that we love, that is just a horrible move.

    This game disappointed. The developers killed everything living and human from the first part. This is the worst yoke in company history. Such senseless cruelty, why? Heroes have no motivation. Play boring, very tight. You killed the franchise, you killed everything. Good graphics cannot close the lack of plot. Wretched people.

    the first half is great the second half destroys the first half along with being terrible in itself. the ending really sells the whole idea... worst story ever written, please do not waste your time.

    The game has interesting gameplay and looks gorgeous, but the story was gruesome and just didnt make sense. It focuses on new characters and diminishes the characters of the old game. The last of us 1 had compelling characters, but they felt like an empty shell in this game. If you grew up with the characters of the first game, you will feel cheated.

If you grew up with the characters of the first game, you will feel cheated. Aside from the miserable story and strange character motivations, it has awful pacing, confusing timelines and strange moments of suspension of disbelief.
    To keep it simple, you either hate or love the second main character. There is no inbetween, which divides the entire fanbase.

    Personally, It was hard for me to get emotionally invested in the second main character, added having a questionable ending. Are we supposed to have an 180? Hate the original characters and love the new ones? It's not that simple.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The ONLY reason I am not rating this game a 0 is because it IS a visually appealing game. The game looks, and sounds, like a AAA title. That's about as far as it goes. The story and writing is so atrocious and upsetting, if you actually make it through the entire game, it leaves you feeling empty and like you just wasted a substantial amount of time for no reward. I can't emphasize enough how upsetting this game was. I was a huge fan of the first game and eagerly anticipated the sequel, only to have this crap fest of a video game slapped in my face. I couldn't care less about ANYONEs sexual preferences or activities. What I DO care about is being forced to play a character I give literally 0 **** about. I could NEVER see the world through Abby's eyes and it would be too soon. I literally could not care less about her, her reasoning or her motivations. But hey, you are force fed 10-ish hours of gameplay through her eyes. Thanks for wasting my time and money.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I hate writing this, but I really didnt expect such a horrible story after all these years of development. While there were a some good moments, the should have been named PLOT HOLES! the game feels like another developer made it but didn't!! The game play is the same after almost a decade, environment puzzles are basically gone. So remove story from the table and you are left with the shallow game play that will have you looking for some other game. and the story is horrible, who wants to really play a game where the hero is subjected to such treatment.… 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]
