It's really nice and balanced to see that you're character isn't the 'ultimate superwoman'. The story is cool, you have to be open-minded. If you've liked the original, I personally think this sequel is a must-have. And yes, some plot twists may not be the ones you prefer... If you start to play this game with an open mind and without any expectations, it will be worth it. If you already have a negative 'vibe' surrounding this title, avoid it and play something else.… Expand

    OK, this is a bit hard. The game is technically awesome, graphics are jaw dropping, the story is incredibly crude, cruel, sad, and I can understand why it has been down voted because of this, is simply hard to digest. For me is a solid 10.

    Even though I would not call the story "perfect" (in opposite to Part I) I think this is the greatest game I've ever played. In all technical aspects it's obvious. But the way TLoU2 provokes thought is unrivaled.

    If you are open-minded you will love this game.

    It deserves a 10, dont listen to people saying that it is bad, most of them didn't even play the game and just review bombed it, the gameplay is a 10/10 better than the first and the story is something you will enjoy if you look at it realistically, not as a fantasy, the story is just amazing and totally recommend it.

    A lot of thought and care went into this game. There are so many little details producing such a realistic world, that over the last 19 days, when I wasn’t playing the game, images of the game would come to mind and elicit emotions, and I’d have to remind myself I wasn’t thinking about the real world.

    Without spoilers, I want to talk about what makes this an amazing game.

    The gameplay is an improvement over TLoU(1). The different items and tech trees are more intuitive, and cleverly distributed among characters. The choices about what to upgrade are interesting. When comparing notes with a friend, he upgraded things I didn’t, which means different players will have different experiences. The movement of the NPC’s, and how they interact with the environment are amazingly realistic. A very welcome improvement is the ability to go prone. In addition to adding a new challenge during puzzles, this adds to effectives of stealth movement.

    The music is beautiful and hauntingly evocative. At times I found myself feeling anxious or relieved and I’d realize it was because of the background music. One sequence in particular using Take On Me is so beautifully done that it brought tears to my eyes.

    I don’t know if there are industry awards for video game voice casting, but Christine Haas Korkosz should be nominated for them. The chosen actors truly bring these characters to life. In particular, the actor voicing Owen was outstanding. This character could have easily been a caricature, but Patrick Fugit brings this supporting character to life with humor, angst and hope, improving all the other characters he interacts with.

    The visuals in TLoU2 are almost worth the cost of purchase on their own. Some scenes and moments were so beautiful they made me gasp and want to linger longer than the game allowed. This is no small feat, to convey such wonder, joy, and beauty in a video game.

    So much thought and detail went into the creation of this world. I noticed, early on in the game that there was a crock pot in a bathroom. I thought, at first, “Why would there be a crock pot in the bathroom?” Then I realized, if there was no running gas for that house, they’d need to heat the water with something electric for a warm bath. In an abandoned apartment with a D&D set up in the living room, it was a wonderful surprise to see the (realistic) setup for miniature painting in another room. These tiny details are easy to miss, but contribute to making this world real.

    Sound effects can hurt a game if they’re weak, or are “invisible” if they’re good. In this case, they’re perfect. You’re talking to another character and they turn a corner without you? Then that other character’s words become muffled. You’re too close to an explosion? Sound is muted and you get a ringing in your ears. You’re trying to move in water? Your movements creates a quiet sloshing sound. Every action has a realistic sound reaction.

    The common thread I’ve seen among the negative reviews is that TLoU2 has a “weak” story with “plot holes”. It’s clear now to me that these reviewers didn’t actually play the game. While I can understand why some people might be SADDENED by events in the game, that doesn’t make it a weak story.

    When I think about what I want in entertainment, the common denominator is that I want something new and different. I don’t want to see the same things over and over again. When I see a movie and can guess early on how it’s going to end, that’s a mark of poor writing.

    I want to be stimulated. Surprised. And I want to feel some kind of connection to the characters. The Last of Us 2 accomplishes all this. This game made my heart race with adrenaline and anxiety. It made me gasp, flinch, care about the characters, and yes, even cry at times. The structure of the story was masterful with revelatory scenes carefully placed. While there are surprises, none of them are out of character. This is a well-told story.

    While I find it hard to call anything “perfect”, this game comes close. I do have 2 “areas of improvement”:

    1) The sound leveling. Several times during the game with loud background noise, the characters’ speech was sometimes soft. This resulted in me missing part of a joke, or part of a backstory, which frustrated me.

    2) The length of the game. The game went on just a little too long. To a degree, I understand. This was an in-depth story and it was important to experience different events to show the growth, evolution, and interaction of the characters. I just wish there was maybe one less battle, or maybe a little more tightly edited cut-scene.

    The Last of Us 2 is a masterpiece. I cannot imagine getting a better value for my entertainment dollar. Naughty Dog deserves to be proud of what they have accomplished.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is being smeared due to the majority of player reviews having no life experience, compassion, or any emotional maturity or development at all. I own the collector’s edition, and I thoroughly enjoyed this game. As with most sequels, it is not as good as the first which is why it is not 10/10 but this game is a masterpiece. I played this on my 10 year old tv and it was still visibly stunning.

    I was expecting Joel to be "red shirted" at some point in the game, I was not expecting it so early on in the game. It genuinely ruined my day when that scene played out, and I did stop playing it when that happened, but I continued the next day. But to simply hate, and to send death threats to the actress over an expected fan favourite death is beyond comprehension! It wouldn't have been much of a revenge story if it was Dina who was murdered. We all love Joel, and we all felt the betrayal and anger of the game. Anger is a shared emotion, we share Ellie's anger, and we want to make the WLF pay. Dina to me is more of a minor detail, I was happier to have Jessie along for the ride as he was a much more useful companion, however you get the idea with how delicate Dina is when you compare her early pregnancy symptoms compared to Mel who is heavily pregnant.

    The game is so much more brutal now, and you can be calculating and cruel in your actions. The details that have been put into the game can be missed if you're frothing at the mouth with your mountain dew and Cheeto fingers in your mothers basement REEEing about Abby. When you stealth kill someone, you see the light leaving their eyes, you see the death wash over their faces. If you kill a dog handler without the dog knowing, it whimpers and wines, looking for it's handler. The visible injuries and the gore left behind from the Molotov’s and explosive arrows are harrowing. Especially when the runners are madly crawling after you with no legs - very unsettling and making me board the nope train. The bloasters are **** sted heads, full on cocaine raging at you and are pretty stressful to play against, especially whenever you face them it's always conveniently in a claustrophobic area, similarly to the shamblers.

    I somewhat bonded with Abby, I understood her pain. However I was more warmed to Ellie for obvious reasons. I think Abby doesn't play as smoothly as Ellie, and I think her stealth kill is so much more slower than Ellie's, even whilst fully upgraded. I'm glad her and Owen had their moment, no matter how bitter sweet it was with Mel and how it all ended. You knew that Owen would always carry a torch for Abby, even in death. He chose to not die next to Mel, or attempt to get to Mel, he got as far away from her whilst they both bled out - the mother of his unborn child! I was pissed out with Abby's comment of Ellie and Tommy "wasting the opportunity that Abby gave them by not killing them". The audacity after hunting someone down and killing them, and didn't expect any repercussions - pot, kettle, black.

    I desperately want to know more about the Scars, who their leader was. Not much is revealed even when picking the place apart. It is easily missed that the Scars only started beheading and stoning people and their kind when their leader died. How the new 'elders' allocate many wives to themselves to birth their kin. Terrifying knowing the fate of Len who was chosen at 13 to be a wife to the elder. I would do anything to avoid being trafficked by my community for some vulgar, over grown, overdue being killed, old man who abuses children and women. I am reading between the lines, but it's not a hard connection to make when a CHILD has been allocated a wife role - something we should take into consideration that happens in our world to much younger children. I really do hope that there is DLC about the Scars, or when the long awaited MP that is in the works.

    The ending was bittersweet too. I was sad that it was over. Ellie, grief stricken and taken over by PTSD, forced by Tommy and her PTSD episodes thinking that ending Abby's life would be the key to end their suffering. However upon seeing Abby, a husk of her former self, it wasn't worth the pain and energy. The hurt is from never having the chance to repair her relationship with Joel - a feeling many are familiar with when falling out with someone who then passes away. Hate eats away at you, makes you push those who mean the most to you away. You are then left with the scars of the hatred, unable to enjoy the happy memories that the deceased left you.

    If you cannot understand this concept of the story, then you need to evaluate your life and your relationships with people if you cannot empathise with these emotions.    … Expand

    Music/SFX (10/10)
    The music and sound effects are really good too, you feel the power of the guns when you shoot them. The moments when Ellie plays the guitar are pretty nice.

    Characters (10/10)
    I think all of the main characters are pretty well written, I find them very charismatic, all of them have an interesting plot and good development, they grow throughout the game.

    Story (8/10)
    For me the story is one of the weakest points of the game, while it is decent and pretty interesting it has more awful moments than good ones. There's a section at the end that feels tedious and too stretched out, if it wasn't there it wouldn't hurt the game.

    Enemies (7/10)
    I think the enemies are too similar to each other: all the humans are pretty much the same (except when you find the big ones) and the same can be said for the infected, there are various kinds but it gets boring, and there's only one really unique mob in the game.

    Gameplay (6/10)
    While the gameplay received some improvements, it mostly remained the exact same as in the first part and becomes monotonous, boring and predictable at half of the game. Moreover, puzzles were practically nonexistant.

    Average Score (8.5)

    Conclusion: The game is pretty good and beautiful, I had fun playing it. The story felt stretched out a little bit, but I liked the ending.    … Expand

The evolution of graphics and new elements in the gameplay evolve as well as the story, which proves to be beautiful and violent at the same time, with extremely well-built characters, with well-defined personalities, which makes them unique. The photography direction work is clever when using smooth travellings almost uncut during their cutscenes which make them perfectly fluid, making it impossible to discern when the gameplay ends and the cutscene begins. The art direction of the game is impeccable. Each scene in the game looks like a painting thanks to the wonderful and colorful scenarios that, even in times of urgency, it is impossible not to recognize the wonder of the game world, even in a dystopian setting with a dazzling mix between nature and man. The subtle and striking soundtrack also has a beautiful and important role, as it marks the moments of action and calm in the narrative in a cautious and delicate way. The innovation of some features such as dodge, passwords for safes, skill tree and verticality in the gameplay bring a sense of evolution for both the game creators and the players, which gives more authenticity to the game and emerges the player even more in the world that it is inserted. The story shows in an elegant and magnificent way the consequences of how a simple action can have, the price that hasty decisions charge and how the vision of hero and villain are abstract and depend only on the point of view, all thanks to very well fitted plot twists and explained that it keeps the curiosity and mystery of the story until its end. By inserting the LGBT universe in the story, the narrative gains even more value when dealing with such a current and important theme in a delicate and adorable way. This game is a masterpiece of the games and will certainly mark the end of a console generation as the best game of the decade, just like its predecessor, which thanks to the super dedicated and attentive team from Naughty Dog and the fabulous Neil Druckmann, is an amazing, incredible, wonderful, charming and above all, exciting game.… Expand

    The Last of Us Part II is also technically flawless, with beautiful exterior environments and top notch exploration and combat.

    But this game really shines in depicting characters with real depth and complexity. And, oh boy, it really succeeds in making the case that there are two sides to a story.

    No game is perfect, but this one arguably comes darn close. I also give it a 10 to counteract the biggots who chose to bomb this game, either because they can't stomach how the plot unfolds or because they have issues with its inclusive storyline.    … Expand

The Last Of Us Part II gives you an inexplicable and very personal feeling that you can only feel when playing it. The story of this game is very well written! People who didn't like the game, probably didn't play it or understood the story in a completely wrong way. I've been a fan of The Last Of Us since 2013 and played both games at launch, and my favorite character was Joel, without a doubt. When he died, I felt emptiness inside me, I felt worse than Ellie, I was filled with hatred and all I wanted to do was kill everyone responsible for it. When we go on our journey of revenge with Ellie, it is gradually noticeable that she is losing humanity and her essence. "If I ever were to lose you, I'd probably lose myself." and that’s what happened to Ellie and us players. Ellie was completely lost after losing Joel. She was filled with hatred and continued an endless cycle of hatred and revenge. Abby lost the person she loved most in the world, her father. She had that pain inside her, and she only thought about it every day, because she had lost everything and she thought that the only thing that would bring her peace would be to kill Joel, to avenge her father. However, when she killed him, nothing changed. Abby continued to have her nightmares and kept thinking about her father's death every day, in addition to carrying a huge guilt for killing Joel. Abby lost her humanity and essence at that moment when she killed Joel. She didn't regret killing Joel, but she realized that none of it was worth it. Ellie is a mirror of Abby, because the two were lost because of the death of the person they loved most in the world. The two were feeding on hatred and losing their humanity, because of revenge. A quote that can define this whole situation, is "Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves" (Confucius), and one of these graves is for you, because you will get lost in the middle of the process of revenge, you will become someone else. Abby's journey is a journey of redemption, which is why she felt so compelled to help Yara and Lev. In that moment we can see how similar Abby is to Joel, because Joel lost his humanity after losing Sarah, he became a totally different person, he became cruel and sadistic, he was not a good person like before, and that is exactly what happened to Abby. Joel found love and his humanity again, when he met Ellie. Abby found love and her humanity again, when she met Lev. Ellie and Lev were like little lights of hope in the darkness of Joel and Abby. Abby managed to find her peace and redemption in Lev. You realize that when Abby was going to kill Dina, but she looks at Lev and decides to stop, because she knows that revenge never brought anything good to her life, and now she had one reason to live and move on: Lev. However, although Ellie lived a happy life on the farm with Dina, she did not eat, was sick and continued to have her panic attacks and nightmares, she would only find peace in herself. So she decides to go after Abby to find that peace. Abby refuses to fight Ellie because she was already destroyed inside because of revenge and had already realized that it was never and will never be worth it. She lost the love of her life and all of her close friends, she lost EVERYTHING. When Ellie was about to kill Abby, she has a memory of Joel and decides to stop. This memory of Joel was a good memory, he was happy and alive. In the last times that Ellie remembered him, she just remembered him dead and suffering. That memory was like "Stop, baby girl. It won't change anything and it will only destroy you", because when Ellie killed Abby, she would completely lose her humanity and her essence, and she would stop being the person Joel loved and cared for. I personally felt at that moment, that that "Ellie" was not the Ellie that we knew, it was not the Ellie that Joel knew and loved. She also saw what Abby felt for Lev, it was what Joel felt for Ellie. She let the love she felt for Joel, overcome the hatred she felt for Abby and it completely broke the cycle of hatred. Naughty Dog was very brave in producing this game and I really admire them for it. The interesting thing is that Ellie's memory of Joel at that moment, was their last conversation, their last words. Hate destroys many things, but a small fraction of love and forgiveness fixes everything. There are no heroes or villains in this story, only humans. It is a pity that many people failed to understand the message of the game... I'm sorry for the people who couldn't feel the experience and emotions that this game provided for us. I hope people have more love and maturity and don't spread unnecessary hate messages. MASTERPIECE… Expand

    It is the perfect sequel and it gives a perfect closure to Joel and Ellie`s story.
    ********SPOILER ALERT********
    if you didn`t finish the game don`t read the following

    I know that many people are not going to read this but for those who actually finished the game and did not understand the ending (or doesn`t know how to feel about it), I will leave you with an analysis that may be useful to some:

    Ellie's hatred for Abby is an external reflection of Ellie's self-hatred.
    Joel deeply hurt Abby and Ellie in different ways and they both punished him for it. Ellie hates Abby for torturing Joel to death, especially since she didn't have a chance to restore her relationship with Joel. This is a parallel to her situation with Ellie because she also tortured Joel, she did it for years but in a different way, and I would say that in a more painful way for Joel, and that was to disconnect from him. Ellie hates herself for torturing him like this and for not restoring their relationship when there was still time. That is the real pain that she has been trying to avoid facing throughout this quest for revenge, she is like a "junkie" who uses revenge to avoid dealing with those painful feelings of regret. This is the vision she has while she is drowning Abby (when she has the flashback of the scene on the porch with Joel) and chooses not to kill her. She is not only forgiving Abby, but more importantly forgiving herself and finally coming to a resolution as to what happened between her and Joel, I think Ellie leaving her guitar leaning against the window and walking away symbolically represents that she has forgiven Joel, and she made peace with what happened between them and she's finally ready to move on and start a new life.

    When I finished The Last Of Us Part II for the first time, I felt empty and honestly, I didn't know what to feel, whether I liked it or not, but after much deliberation, I think it is truly a masterpiece.

    People who say the game is just about "revenge=bad" or that the ending "feels utterly, hopelessly pointless", I think they really didn't get it (or didn't play it). Because this game is about forgiveness.

    This game is not at all what the fans expected, but I think that's what makes it so great.    … Expand

    I absolutely loved the original game, having played through it too many times to count, including numerous times on Grounded Mode. It seems to me that a lot of the backlash for this current title may be rooted in the expectations players have had, especially those regarding the direction they've thought the story might or should take. But if one lets go of those expectations, there's a lot here to appreciate.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game doesn't deserve all of this hate from the review bombers and those that haven't even played the game yet.

    Story - 7/10
    The story is OK. Definitely not as good as the first game. The story was actually going pretty good up until the Abby portion. I know what the writers were trying to convey, but by us playing as Abby for what seemed like forever, it seemed to diminish the anger we had from Joel's death. And it wasn't because I started to see things from Abby's side. It was because we were focusing so much on her that I started to forget about Joel. Abby's story was kind of boring.

    I was hoping for a happy ending, but I understand why they didn't go that route and it doesn't affect my score. My score was affected by 2 things. The OK-ish story and the fact that they pulled an MGS2 on us.

    Now comes the easy part.
    Graphics - 10/10
    Not alot needs to be said here. This is top tier stuff. How did they get the lips to move so well?

    Sound - 10/10

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Reading some of these negative reviews amazes me. They're all nonsense. The game was released on the 19th and there are a bunch of reviews slamming the game that day, uninformed opinions.
    Gameplay is improved, the ability for stealth, the interaction with the scenes.
    Once again they've created a beautiful and atmospheric world with some really nice touches and attention to detail.
    The build up to climax of the intro is amazing, really well put together and it did a great job of getting me invested in the rest of plot to want to enact revenge.
    The rest of the game was great too, immersive as expected and some real good scares at certain points. It's definitely scarier in parts than the last one.
    As for character development the plot and story is very very good at shifting your perspective on how you feel about the characters. At times forcing you to go against your will and work against what you really want, but it pays off and makes you empathise really well with all parties.
    The ending is great too, ties things off nicely, but it's also quite melancholy. There's a real sense of loss that you feel on behalf of the character which given all that they've been through is understandable. The fact that naughty dog can make you feel that is a credit to their team.
    Highly recommended. I've not read a single convincing negative review here.

I have never been so emotionally devastated by any piece of media like this before, let alone just video games. And it’s divisive, as any work of art should be. I’m on the side of appreciation. This game is a true masterpiece. I loved it.… Expand

    Jugabilidad 10/10
    Gráficos 10/10
    Voces y actuación 10/10
    Historia 8/10
    Enserio no sé cómo a la gente no le gusta la histora, tal vez sea por qué no lo han jugado, se que la historia no es perfecta, que mucha gente está disgustada por la muerte de Joel ya que muere como un personaje del montón pero al final es lo que el juego quiere dar como mensaje, que el mundo en el que viven es injusto y despiadado. El final, no es tan malo como la gente dice, es más a mí me gustó bastante, a Abby la perdona porque se da cuenta que vengarse no le ha traído nada bueno y que haciéndolo tampoco recuperará a Joel, el final no es el mejor, pero está bastante bien. Otra cosa que se critica es que el juego se alarga mucho y se hace pesado a veces, desde lo personal me ha encantado y no me he aburrido en ningún momento, tal vez se me han echo pesadas alguna parte de infectados pero al pasármela ha sido merecida porque no hay combate que ganes que te deje con mal sabor de boca, en el tema infectados. Abby era un personaje que odiaba y ha pasado de ser eso a un personaje que odio menos, en cuanto a la historia de Abby la veo bastante trabajada y cumple perfectamente el objetivo que tenia, empatizar, porque si es una cabrona pero jugando su parte empatizas con ella. Me parece una falta de respeto enorme para el equipo de Naugthy Dog el review bombing que ha sufrido el juego, porque para nada se merece esto y cualquiera que se haya pasado el juego lo sabrá, sabrá que el juego no merece menos de un 6-7. Metacritic debería tener un sistema para conectar la cuenta de PSN o Xbox que detecte si tienes el juego y que para criticar necesites haber jugado un mínimo de 5 horas o algo así para prevenir del review bombing, porque es raro que en 1 hora haya críticas de 10 y de 0. Bueno paro ya que me estoy enrollando más que en una redacción de castellano, en conclusión el juego es una pasada y la comunidad "gamer" nos demuestra una vez más que es una basura llena de gente toxica, porque para criticar un juego hace falta jugarlo y dudo mucho que toda la gente que le ha puesto notas de 3 a 0 lo haya jugado.    … Expand

    People can’t get mad when a story that’s dear to their heart doesn’t go the way they wanted, that’s is what a great game is all about. Ground breaking twist during the game that hurt but also drive you to resolve a terrible situation makes a player feel mentally vested.
    Joel dying sucks badly (broke my heart) but that’s the way the story was meant to play out, I wish Ella would have had time to say goodbye to Joe but the fact that Ellie didnt just fuels a raging fire in her for revenge.
    I hated the Abby portion of the game at first but when you start to understand the mental and physical trauma she endured fires you an understanding of why you killed Joel is such brutal way.
    I’m about 10 hours in and I feel I’m not only playing a great game, but I’m reading a great book and watching a great movie, all at once. That at the end if today drive me to give it a 10/10 rating

    Gameplay and mechanics are 9/10 (to slow to aim your gun) Graphics and sound are 10/10

    Storyline: when I played Ella and was given her background ever more it made me love. Playing Abby sucked for hours but when you started getting her backstory it made me enjoy playing through her store.

    All in all. One of the best games ever produced    … Expand

    1. Graphics - pleasing to the eye
    2. Gameplay - is interesting and varied. I personally used almost the entire arsenal that I had.
    3. History - is not so simple with that. You will understand this, as the developers planned, only when you start looking at Ellie from a different perspective.
    introducing a new game character is very risky, but Naughty Dog were able to show and reveal the character very well! If you look at him not biased!
    4. Character growth - Yes! in contrast to the first part.
    So to enjoy the game, you need to play on high difficulty and not be biased to follow the story itself and consider the characters from a different angle.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There's a saying "haters gonna hate". Well let them hate. They are blindly giving negative comment on this game. Yes this game is the most polarizing game but it didn't sucked. Gameplay is superb and the graphics are amazing as well. After completing the game I felt empty like there's a question in my head "was the story great or was it a disappointment"? I am feeling like this wasn't a good story nor a bad story but it was tragic not the way people wanted. It was emotional. Some are just blindly judging the game based on the leaks and some just don't care about anything. I saw the leaks and the full experience was worth. Joel's death was really tragic and sad but I still enjoyed the game. All these negative comments are just not justifiable. Most of the negative reviews are from those who didn't even played the game yet review bombing it. I don't know what else to say it's just I'm feeling empty. This game will be on my mind for a long time. I hope naughty dog makes a 3rd part or even a 4th part which will be a proper conclusion to this wonderful franchise. I will gladly play these games. Please naughty dog ignore the hate you guys are amazing and you know that. You have shown your qualities before and you will show it again. And lastly only one thing I would say is that it's a divisive game and haters will try to troll the ones who loved the game and the people who loved the game will surely defend it. This a part of the cycle of life.… Expand

    This game is beyond my expectation in every aspect. Naughty Dog is trying to tell a meaningful and deep story which can probably only be told effectively through interactive video game. However, ND has clearly overestimated the gaming community. Time will tell.

    I'm a fan of the first game played it and gave something special outshining other storytelling driven games that makes me love Joel and Ellie's relationship and story so much and yet there is a sequel. Received so much hate when it got leaked and I've got a lot of doubt about it but I went through.

Received so much hate when it got leaked and I've got a lot of doubt about it but I went through. Last of us part II is one of best games I've had on my ps4, naughty dog breaks so much limits upon what a game can be, totally take a huge turn from the first game, in terms of beautiful high quality graphics, much more calculated and gore gameplay that keeps the spirit of the first game. A heavy, tragic, ambitious, detailed and much more complex story that shows off different perspectives and deeper reflection and realizations of the situations the characters are taking in and showing how flawed and human they can be with acting from what they are and what they will be in the world of an unforgiving and cruel setting. It is such a roller coaster ride of emotions with shocking moments that the game will make you try to invest in its characters. The story shows up the actions turning into huge consequences affecting everyone by the means of revenge, violence, love and hate makes the characters interesting for how human and real they are. There are no forced SJW or LGBTQ+ elements shoved through you it is just what it is and there are no trans characters in the game just to clarify. This is one of the boldest move that the franchise had given showing a different path than the air tight story of Joel and Ellie from each other but it still has the creativity of making a very outstanding game than other repititive elements you see from other games. Such a level up tostory driven game in this generation.
    Well please don't listen to some retarted close-minded person I've played the game its great. Most of them are **** review bombing it without even playing it and others giving it 10 rating with **** post intentions just experience the game.    … Expand

I think it's good that you can play both sides so it gives more depth. However, it would be nice to learn more about the side characters.

People claim to want 3-dimensional characters--but if that's the case, we have to accept 3-dimensional narratives as well. They claim to want games with adult stories, that go in unexpected directions. I thought I wanted that as well, but TLOU Part II forced me to reckon with that. I realized a part of me expected redemption, almost required it, and I didn't want to pay for it. Not really pay.

    Well, here it is: an adult story, with flawed characters, that takes the game and genre in an unexpected direction, that forces you to think and reckon with your actions. A game that isn't "fun" in its climactic boss battles. A game with characters make choices that we understand are wrong, and suffer consequences that are in hindsight inevitable. This is disruptive, and depressing, and unique in the entirety of games. It will be talked about, and argued about, and sets the template for all "dark" games, anti-heroes, and revenge stories to follow.    … 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]
