    The Last of Us Part II, is once again a heart aching journey of loss, love, sacrifice, anger, forgiveness and so much more in an emotionally heavy story and gameplay. It puts the players in completely uncharted land to help deliver a story that heavily questions our motives, our reality and our feelings.

    The Last of Us Part II is a masterpiece.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Although I managed to dodge the leaks and spoilers, I was so nervous to play this game. I am not a gamer and TLOU is the only game I've ever played and completed. I was so scared that I would hate this because of the negativity online and whispers of a terrible storyline. Now, I am so relieved that I loved this game. Obviously the things that happened early on in the game were going to cause deep and raw emotional reactions, and they were meant to. I truly don't understand how people can accuse this game of bad writing or story telling. It's a tale of survivors and makes you second guess yourself as a player. I think people held onto their anger at Joel's death just to spite themselves. It wasn't thrown in early to rush it, it was to catch you off guard. He didn't get a hero's ending not because he's not hero (whether he is or isn't is debatable), but because it's unrealistic. People only want realism when it suits them.
    It's an amazing game. An exploration of loss and forgiveness and love and hate. I signed up just to give this one more good review.

    Just because the story isn’t what *you* wanted it to be, doesn’t make it bad. People die, stuff happens, things don’t go as planned. Not every story gets a satisfying, happy ending. Deal with it. The game is set in a bleak, post apocalyptic world, not a Disney fairy tale.

    the graphics are well done and you enjoy and live the atmosphere

    the gameplay was very good, and the inclusion was something not very important to highlight the game, but it was regular, but it doesn't make it a bad game.

    Regarding the negative comments and the absurd qualifications, I assume that they are people who only let themselves be carried away by others who do not understand the complex psychology that has a game, I only think of homophobic people and who cry like crib children for death a character that he did not die heroically.

    Everything on the technical side is improved and enhanced greatly from the first game.

There's of course better graphics and animations, bigger levels and new environmental elements, but the biggest enhancements are the AIs of both your NPC companions and the enemies. Specially the stalkers - those feel like a completely different enemy this time around and provide some of the more intense sequences.

    Regarding the story... the game creators have said it best: The first game is about love, the second game is about hate. The first game was sad and violent, and ugly, but it was also heart-warming and beautiful. You see the world through the eyes of a washed-off man who learns to love again.

    This game is the complete opposite. It's designed to make you feel increasingly unease, to the point of regretting your own actions. You start strong and determined, only to get slowly and relentlessly invaded by doubt and quilt. At some point you might even feel that you would rather not carry on the actions that the game requires for the story to progress. In my book, that's a huge accomplishment. I feel that many of the people who criticize the choices they made on the story are missing this point.

    Me... I've never seen anything remotely like this before.

    Pure quality. Naughty Dog proves once again that they are one of the best games studios out there by providing us with an emotionally conflicting, nuanced narrative that pushes the limits of what/how games make us feel. Apart from the narrative achievement, the graphics, sound effects and gameplay mechanics are, as per usual Naughty Dog title, unparalleled. Bravo Naughty Dog, bravo!

    Everyone was expecting a light hearted game filled with moments of Ellie's and Joel's interactions. In a world like this, it would be highly unrealistic.

In a world like this, it would be highly unrealistic. This game carries mature and heavy themes, so it is understandable why it wasn't made for everyone. For those pressed about what happens in the beginning that sets the plot for the rest of the game- how else would you have told this story? Naughty Dog acknowledges the brutality of killing off this loved character, and wants the audience to feel just like Ellie- someone who just lost their father. Others are mad at the "poor writing", but the four complex timelines the game carries is highly difficult and ballsy to pull off. Having to "walk a mile" for the character you truly hate has the purpose to really test the player's bias and morals. The ending did trigger many people- a plot of revenge doesn't end in revenge. But what about the first game? The plot of "saving humanity" didn't end in that. Plot and stories are different. Plot: finding the cure of humanity, story: relationship between Ellie and Joel. Plot: revenge, story: grief and forgiveness. If you walk away still wanting Abby dead, you may have completed the game but not with your soul. Yes this game is emotionally draining, but it reflects the sad truth about our reality- how unstructured and animal-like society would become in a world like this. Expand

The all-important at the beginning not as much as expected. Others more so. It has happened twice that I had to put the controller down and come down

    In the end, my only criticism remains that the level in the second half was a little too long. but that's complaining at a high level.

The story follows through from the first game, it's brutal, heartbreaking, complicated, at times fun and lighthearted but most of all it's really a story about obsession and revenge. Choices have consequenses and in this world, they're bloody. Hopefully the bracelet theory pans out and Ellie and Dina are together in the end. Ellie deserves a good ending besides finally letting Joel's death go. Overall one of the best games I've ever played and you can see all the hard work that went in to it. Top score. Expand

    Overall a great game, and without a doubt, the best cinematic story I have ever encountered in a video game. Beautifully written, acted, and arranged.

    I, personally, like this game – the story and the way that it's told – much better than Part I, which itself was told in a very simplistic and linear fashion. The characters in Part II were much more developed, and felt much more like part of the story. By contrast, in Part I, the only characters that were truly developed were Joel and Ellie; while every other character felt like a random encounter.

    My only major issue with the game was the looting mechanic, which I felt was too monotonous, and a little detrimental to how otherwise immersive this game is.

    There's also one particular segment that I thought felt unintentionally ambiguous. Without having to spoil anything, I can just say that it had to do with reporting an address in Santa Barbara over the radio. Luckily, this was just one small misstep in otherwise perfect storytelling.

    I highly recommend that everyone who has any interest in this game play it through till the end. It will send you on an emotional roller coaster ride, so make sure you take brakes to recover, but it will be worth it in the end.

I wish Joel’s death was handled better but I guess I am fine with it. But I loved Ellie’s revenge quest. Also, I loved Abby’s parts and I eventually began to like her. Their stories are very similar and you can see the parallels between them in the end. I hope we see more of Abby and Lev. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly, i think people are way to hard on the game. Sure it has its flaws, sure the story may not be what we all wanted or expected. But is the game a 0 or a 1 for that? Hell no.. The visuals are one of THE most impresive ive ever seen. I cant belive it runs so well on a PS4 and its even more impresive on a PRO system. Sound and music is again one of THE best ive heard in a game. How the enemies communicate to each other is excellent. The clickers and the other infected are even more terifyin than the last game. Game play and the stealth is so damn fun and is a huge improvment from first game.

    The only flaw i have with the game is the pasing and the story. And im not that upset with Joels death not the way he died. Sure i wish he could live but not all stories have a happy ending. In not a huge fan of flashbacks in games thou. And this game has ALOT of them unfortanetly. Witch ruins the pasing and mess up the immersion. And yeah, some of the directions and events in the story is.. a Little wierd, but its still enjoyable.

    All and all its a damn fine game witch is really beatiful and fun to play with a story and pasing thats the only two things that hold it back a little.

This game is best in class when it comes to graphics, performance capture, and action set-piece moments. The environmental detail, sound, music, and animations are unbelievable. This game is also solid gameplay-wise and exceeded my expectations. You will die a lot, but because the scenarios play out differently and you have so much agency to try different things, it was not an issue. Thankfully checkpoints and loading are handled well. The game is not too long, IMO. The scenarios are different enough to not feel like anything is repeated. Do not rush the game. Take your time and take a break. The game is brutal and intense. The story does jump back in time, so you may want to see what is next instead. Be patient, it is worth the wait. I want to replay in new game + to have all the guns and upgrades. Something I never considered for LofUs. The argument is understandable that the first game has a better story. This game still impacted me emotionally by great performances as much as the first, while bringing the unforgettable music more to the forefront. Understand these characters are flawed and give in to the story they are telling. This is not an RPG. Regardless of how you feel about the narrative, this game is better in every other way.

    HERE ARE MY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR PLAYING THE GAME. In settings, set supplies to auto-pickup and also consider enabling pointing you to the next objective by clicking the left stick. This is a resource game, so load all your weapons and have those at the ready before entering an encounter. It is like Witcher in that regard. Prepare and use everything at your disposal. If you are spotted that is okay. Improvisation in fights is what makes this game shine. Use the whole environment. You have a large space to work with, always be moving. If you have too much of a resource, craft item(s) immediately so you can pick up everything. Set auto-aim assist before knocking difficulty down to easy. But, I am kind of a bad shot. :-)

    This game is a masterpiece, an art. You can see how everyone has their own opinion about this game. It is undoubtedly magnificent in its own way. How they manipulate people’s feelings and thoughts is outstanding. This is a game for mature and open minded people. It is not a closed boxed storytelling where you get to expect and feel what is right for your hands.

    This is how the game divides gamers. This game shows a very deep and dark story making where people hate it because of the expectations that has been put into the game’s shoulder. Many people were expecting a sequel where both the protagonist Ellie and Joel continues a journey concluding to the closure of their dilemma on the first game. The game was bold enough to change it’s path from having a story of bonding and connection into shattered hope. The story was told into a setting where not everyone could/would appreciate it. The story gives different messages to the players on how they would take the game. Many says that this is a manipulative story but in my case it is... but also it is not. And that is the beauty of it. In my perspective, many games al throughout the generations were more manipulative that they ONLY subject you to feel happiness, fun and laughter. This Last of Us 2 however, still manipulates you but in a way that you may feel different from the conventional where you can feel fear, rage, anger, and feeling of revenge. BUT it can also manipulate you to the feeling of sadness and sympathy, or even contentment in some cases. Here we can really identify people who can really appreciate art from those who cannot.

    Many people say that many of the decisions made in the game was so unrealistic. For me, I disagree. This game tries to portray real life humans. Yes HUMANS. Humans are not perfect, sometimes decisions are very vague and misunderstood. Unrealistic storytelling for me are decisions that always make sense, decisions that are always perfect. We can say humans portrayed in this game is perfectly imperfect.

    Some issues to be tackled in the story of the game is the Tragic event that happened to the protagonist. It is really a heartbreaking scene. It really does get you to feel like stopping the game for some reasons. You may feel various types of emotions up until you progress. Many would say that playing a certain role in this game makes you irritated, puke or unsatisfied. Many would feel unfairness not only in the story but also in the gameplay. This is totally understandable feeling yet effective cause i think, the game made you feel what it is supposed to be felt. Life is not fair in all levels where they have perfectly shown us in this game. We as the players have to deal with this.

    This game was rated 10/10 for me not only that it has a topnotch graphics, game design and gameplay which is perfectly lifted from the previous game with few enhancements , but also because the story is phenomenal, unconventional and tragic. Tragedy is a form of a story used by novelists all over the world. To introduce this in a mass spectrum audience, specifically to the gamers community is a bold move. However, in my opinion they gave us an outstanding piece of art. Which will only be enjoyed and appreciated by limited open minded mature people who knows good art and story telling.

Completely submerged myself into the world of the game even though I disagreed with the approach they had for Joels outcome. Not mad he died, just disappointed they didn’t give him a better send off. If they had Abby SAVE Joel it wouldn’t of felt so empty when she kills him RIGHT after being saved. At the end I found myself not wanting Abby to die, even though it was obvious what Naughty dog was doing with petting the dogs, etc. I found myself hoping for a third part.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not perfect of course (as no game is), but i can say. When i finished this game, I had that feeling that you don't know what to do with your life after. Have not had that feeling from a game in a long time. At first, I was upset from the leaks. I thought the game would be awful but im glad I had enough faith in naughty dog to play it. When I first played as Abby, I disliked her so much. But, she really grew on me as the game progressed and honestly, I liked her character a little more than ellie and im extremely glad she doesnt die in the end. Aside from the amazing story, the scenery is just gorgeous. One of the best looking games I've seen (and I dont even have a ps4 pro). Although, the ending i felt was a bit short, itd be nice if it showed what happened to Abby and let, if they reached the fireflies. And where ellie is going to go now that she has nothing and no one left. Just such an amazing game. I really gope they release a 3rd one on ps5 that has more of ellie (not as the main characters though) it would actually be nice seeing abby as the main character and having her and ellie come to terms with each other. Or at least knowing what happens to ellie through documents or word of mouth. But i think ellies story has been told and in a third game it would be nice to see someone else carrying the torch Expand

Along with Jessie, etc. The irony of Ellie and abby’s stories being almost identical is incredible. It sends a message of reality and different perspectives! They both did the right thing, going after revenge for their fathers right? In this story neither of them are in the right. It’s funny because I absolutely adore Joel in every shape And form. But he wasn’t the best man in the last of us 1. He was older. Softer and comfortable in the second one. He changed, but it wasn’t all puppies and rainbows. From an unbiased stand point you cannot deny the absolute legendary this game is. I LOVE the perspective, I LOVE that naughty dog didn’t just give the players everything perfect and what they dreamed of. Because life isn’t like that, especially in that world. Just breathtaking and a beautiful new outlook!! Expand

    - refined gameplay. Much better stealth, fun action, diverse ways to approach situations due to all the available weapons
    - Level design means you have big open playgrounds as well as intimate tension in smaller levels
    - Acting. 10/10 performance from everyone

    Things not as good as the first game:
    - the story isn't as gripping, and there lacks a lot of discussion and banter during exploration gameplay. - even from a story driven game there isn't enough actual gameplay for my liking. I feel like during my 30hr playthough I was either in cutscenes or walking though a story driven level for about 15-20hrs

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Before I get into story, first off gameplay is **** amazing. A lot similar to the first game but with more different moves such as jumping in the air to kill an enemy below and more. Weapon upgrades as well as skill upgrades are also nice and great with character mannerisms. When it comes to story, well just like the first game is a masterpiece. The new cast of characters are just as well written as the ones before, each presenting different sides of Ellie & Abby just as much as the world of The Last Of Us. It is definitely a dark story but in a way that is a fitting sequel, the writing in this game at first glance looks quite risky but it works. Showing in depths Ellie’s regression throughout the game as she becomes the immoral man some call a monster, Joel and Abby as she finally finds her father’s murder believing killing him would end her pain but no a part of regretted what she has she done and kills another part of herself as she carries her guilt which at first even goes further and reach Yara & Lev as seen in her dream, but she is able to find her way in the end with Lev, this is her redemption arc. Ellie struggles to live and not do anything about her Father’s death so she goes on a vengeful journey eliminating all WLF members that entered Jackson before until she reaches Abby. I love how they tease us the players with a happy ending for both Ellie & Abby and just get swept away fast reminding us this is The Last Of Us. For Abby and Lev is the rattlers getting them outta nowhere and torturing them and for Ellie her PTSDand Trauma gets stronger and stronger eating her soul but then Tommy arrives reveals where Abby is and Ellie goes out one more time for Revenge in the end she spares Abby because she was able to resist and see Joel and herself in Abby and Lev as well understands why she did this in the first place. Ellie still has her humanity, she realises this is not what Joel would want for her, he would want her to be free forgive let go of him and move on. She comes to the conclusion she went this path trying to be like him and it did no good for the people around her. I Hope we get a Part III where is about Ellie’s redemption arc. Thank you Neil Druckman and the whole team behind this, already beat the game twice right now on holiday can’t wait to get back home and play through a 3rd time but on Survivor this time. Expand

However I can say without any doubt that this game MUST be played if you want to se how the feeling of revenge can bring human being to madness. I liked also how Naughty Dog created some scenes: I had a huge sense of anxiety when Abby had to face all those Clickers, Runners and Shamblers in the destroyed house with Lev and Yara.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The gameplay has seen a lot of improvements and the graphics are incredible. I loved the variety of areas to see and the length of the story was more than double the first game. Some may complain about the length as dragging, but it honestly feels like two games in one and I took my time playing it so it never felt particularly dragging for me. I was really happy to get such a complex and lengthy story out of a Naughty Dog game where most of them are significantly shorter.

    I absolutely loved the game. I really don't understand the criticisms of the story. It's a story of revenge and the actions of the characters lead you down a brutal path that leaves you feeling conflicted about them and that's intentional. People complaining about Ellie's actions or the other character you play as seem to be ignoring the actual underlying story or something. I really liked the second half of the game where you switch to Abby and see her perspective on things, her own personal drive for revenge is nuanced and her allies that Ellie ruthlessly kills get their own level of attention that shows they're not all horrible or evil, but just humans trying to survive like Ellie. I loved the world-building and getting to see from the perspective of the bad guys (both the WLF and Seraphites).

The story is original, and truly leaves the player with a message. The acting is great, and is helped by the incredible animation. The boundaries this game pushes are astounding. The portrayal of ellie and dina's reltionship is beliveable and makes the player love the characters even more. Abbys half of the game begins as a painful struggle, but the player grows to love abby as well, leading to a painful choice. It forces the player to examine themselves and whether they have the ability to cope with loss.

    Also the game is great cause it follows the ancient laws: be gay, do crime. Ellie is gay, and she does crime. 10/10

My guess is they take ONE negative element from the game and score the ENTIRETY of the game so low, that it raises eyebrows to the people who have never played it. The negative element of the game is apparently the story. There are a few instances in the story that don’t appeal to hardcore fanboys and fangirls of the first game.

The negative element of the game is apparently the story. There are a few instances in the story that don’t appeal to hardcore fanboys and fangirls of the first game. However, that’s the way the story is told, and who are WE, the players, to decide what the story should be? In life itself, things don’t always go our way in our own story, so why should that be in a video game?

    With that being said, the only real part of the story I will have to discredit is the ending. It feels empty and leaves a lot more to be desired. In fact, if they could chop off about two hours of gameplay from the end, I would have happily given the game a score of 10 out of 10. The graphics are immensely gorgeous, and very convincing. Shooting enemies and blowing chunks of gore off the bodies are incredibly satisfying. The infected, with a lot of the same types of infected, are just as frightening or more frightening as the previous game.

    The expressions and emotions that the characters convey are absolutely realistic.

    This game does not deserve the score that it’s been getting from other critics.

    So I will give it a solid 9 out of 10. If you are unsure about buying this game, just buy it! You will not be doing yourself any form of disservice.

    I thought ND gave a themselves a unique challenge of trying to humanize what seemed to us to be a monster. Thereby, making the gamer feel conflicted about his or her own feelings in regards to which of the characters are justified.. Unfortunately, they didn't execute that flawlessly, so you ended up with half baked empathy for Abby (and most people still being team Ellie). All in all, I respect a good tragedy. I still feel like **** But I kinda think that's what ND wanted.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly, my review is probably closer to a 7 but I also think this user rating is absolute garbage by people who never played the game and whose main points of contention comes from "I dOnT lIkE aBbY" "ThEy KiLlEd JoEl So ThIs GaMe SuCkS"

    That all being said. The game has a handful of issues, much of which revolves around pacing amd timing. The gameplay itself is more of the same from the last of us. Their are new options and enemies but overall it is just as good if not even a little better than the first mechanically. Where the game loses its three points is the story. Don't get me wrong, the story it tells is actually a good story. There is a through line of the concepts of revenge, it's outcome and it's impacts. They specifically are crafted to show us that the only real difference between the enemy and the hero, is who we have more emotional investment with. They dropped the ball a couple of places to really make this message sink in. However, you aren't supposed to like Abby in this game. Just like in the end, you're not supposed to like Ellie. The main problem comes with pacing. They waited too long for us to take control of Abby. I think the game would have improved greatly if we started as Abby during the "tutorial" section to learn to play, then jump to Ellie for the start. Then we should have swapped day by day with the two characters to get more connection with Abby. They also could have held off on Joel's death until we have some connection to Abby. With those two changes I think this game could legit be an 8 or even 9 out of 10.
    However, I do have to bring up the token trans character and their treatment of them. (I am NOT talking about Abby! Abby is never said be to be trans in game and is never talked about in that way so wether or not she is, is irrelevant. She is a woman in game. Period)

    The Non-binary child in the game is, in all honesty, nearly tortured emotionally more than any other character in this game. The game is not a happy one but when you are introducing character into your game who are not widely represented, it may be important not to have your character be tortured, forced to kill their own mother, and watch their sister get their arm cut off and then be shot... I'm not part of the NB community so that's just my take but I've heard a lot of people not happy about this portrayal.

    So over all it is a generally more than good game with a couple of flaws that brings it down to the slightly above average zone. Any of the massive negative reviews are suspect (as I would also day is anyone who says this game is perfect!) If the scores wouldn't be bombed because of people being reactionary, this game should probably get a 6-8 score. So until it's in that area, I'm helping to bring it up!

    This game has two significant aspects to it that earn it high praise, in my opinion - the technological advancement, and the narrative complexity.

    To tackle the less complicated aspect first, the technological advancement of the game is undeniable - considering the game is on the platform that is now regarded as outdated, the strides it makes in the amount of detail, polish, and performance are incredible. The level of accuracy of physics, motion capture, weapon mechanics, sound technology, and lighting are miles above comparable AAA titles released this year on PS4.

    To speak on the narrative spoiler-free, I will say upfront that when I finished my first playthrough of The Last Of Us Part II, I didn't 100% understand it. It left me emotionally drained and confused for some time. But it took thinking about the story just a little deeper, as well as refreshing my memory on the first installment of the series, that the storytelling of the second installment, shallow at first glance, started to unravel.

    If you see people saying, "The plot fo this game is basically revenge is bad," I would safely assume they finished the game and never bothered to think about it any more than they had to. It saddens me that today's consumers expect to be fed direct and clear narrative off the bat and don't bother to analyze anything.

    The truth is, there is a reason that the name of this installment is "The Last Of Us Part II" and not "The Last Of Us 2". It is not a new ark for the characters in the story - it is a continuation, which you have to keep in mind to understand what it is about. The point of the story, the motivations, and torments of the characters are directly connected to the first game.

    So, as a piece of advice, before playing this game, refresh your memory of the first one. Take some time to form a solid understanding of its characters before taking on Part II. Because if you don't, you might not enjoy your time spent with the game and be left just as confused as I was when I first played it.

    Overall, this game is very, very good. I would personally call it a masterpiece, even though I know a lot of people would disagree with me. It has certain flaws to it, but in my opinion, they are outweighed by its strengths, which is why I give it a 10 to recognize the amount of work and passion that the developers poured into this game.

    The people who complain about this game have obviously never played it. Great experience, doesn’t quite live up to the first game but still provides a solid 20 hours of great gaming.

    the last of us part II is a good game, unique gameplay, really as I think everyone should think and reflect on the game because Joel's death is a necessity that makes Ellie develop and special. According to the director of Naughty Dog, he also confirmed that he wants that and when you think about the ending of the game, maybe in the future it will develop more to become a game that isthe last of us part II is a good game, unique gameplay, really as I think everyone should think and reflect on the game because Joel's death is a necessity that makes Ellie develop and special.

    Boy I really wish this game had followed the headcannon I've been develloping for the last seven years. Subverting my expectations and providing a narative that challenges my preconceptions about the characters really grinds my gears. If only this sequel to a game about the moral boundaries that people push when protecting those those they loved didn't focus on the moral boundaries thatBoy I really wish this game had followed the headcannon I've been develloping for the last seven years.

    Best game ever. The Last of Us Part 2 is by far excellent. The story is not for everyone for sure but amazing none the less. Seriously play this game for a really different type of story! If you have troubles with this game, just stop for a sec and put yourself in Ellie's shoes. You can read Ellie's journal to see what she is thinking during the course of the game.
    The gameplay itself
    Best game ever. The Last of Us Part 2 is by far excellent. The story is not for everyone for sure but amazing none the less. Seriously play this game for a really different type of story! If you have troubles with this game, just stop for a sec and put yourself in Ellie's shoes. You can read Ellie's journal to see what she is thinking during the course of the game.
    The gameplay itself is a bit of the same as the first one but now it feels a bit more realistic, combat is way more challenging and even greater in higher difficulty. But you can decide if you want to have certain aspects of the game be from lower difficulties such as supplies or enemy AI, but you would definitely miss out the experience. Visuals by far the best so far.

    The game itself is a mirror of the first one. The first one introduces us to this terrible world and shows us the kindness and innocence in it. Part 2 on the other hand lets you experience the worst of this world without holding any punches back.

    This game asks itself: What if one of your loved ones suffered a horrific act of injustice? How would you feel? What would you do to seek justice? How far are you willing to go? How easily would you go down this road? and finally (in terms of the first game): After everything you've been through, everything that you've done. Was it worth it?

    The story will make you feel such hate against the antagonists, and just as in the trailer I even told myself that I would find and kill every last one of them. The first half of the game you carry around this mindless sense of hate and anger just so at a climatic point you are then stopped. Then the game continues at the beginning of the story just that in the shoes of the antagonist.
    Of course, as everyone this totally seems like a bad joke at the beginning and you completely hate the idea but you are now stuck with the antagonist. While this might seem horrible is actually what makes this game great.
    By the time you start the antagonist’s story you hate her, and probably will even die on purpose. But as the game keeps on you get to see it as person rather than this all evil entity. And that’s the point of it. Her story is not meant to make you like her but to humanize her, and all the people you were hunting at the beginning. You learn their likes, their dislikes, their fears and you see that as everyone she is capable of horrible and selfish acts but also of the kind and selfish ones too. Just as in real life, not everyone totally bad sometimes we just can’t see it, or even worse, just don’t care.
    Both protagonist and antagonist are opposites yet equals.
    The clash between both is my biggest problem but it makes you see the protagonist’s darker side aimed at you.
    By the end you will meet yourself with sort of a fake ending and then get the real climax of the story. And the brutality of it does not give me words to describe it.
    In a nutshell: the story is kind of watching someone you care for, get hooked up on a substance and watch them hit rock bottom and hope they change.
    Again, this is no joy ride although it has a few nice moments.
    And after discussing the game what you can take is the obvious message of the game but also that: A selfish and violent act is contagious but also a selfish and kind one.
    By the end I was faced with mixed feelings and tears.
    Some might have an issue with deaths in this game, saying they are not worthy for characters, and for that I got to say, that’s death. If you have a problem with it then you don’t remember the first game, and the game makes their characters really realistic in this sense. No one is special, you can go however and whenever even if you are the protagonist.

    Finally, I would like to say that Naughty Dog did it once again and made an amazing game. They told the story they wanted to, however they wanted to and this game is honestly a masterpiece hands down.

    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]
