    just amazing, the game is too good.
    Before criticizing the game, play and draw your conclusions, everyone has the right to dislike it but first have the experience of playing The last Of Us Part II.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The graphics are gorgeous, the story pulls in the player and doesn’t let go for multiple hours, the gameplay excites and indulges the player. The game makes you experience a wide range of emotions, it makes you feel like a god walking through the streets of Santa Barbra whom kills everything in her path, sometimes you have to mourn the loss of one of the greatest father figures in gaming. Let’s get real for a minute. Everyone dies at some point in their life, someone who dislikes the game simply because of Joel’s death, playing as Abby, not killing Abby, or any other reason out there, is just stupid. Characters evolve, things change, and sometimes you find yourself loving a monster. Emmy winning writers, and people who review games for a living are praising this game, giving it 10s and calling it game of the year. One out of three average human beings are mentally challenged. Are you the one? It’s a 10. Expand

    Wasn't a fan of the way joel was killed but all around enjoyed the game definitely a story of revenge that is ment to make u angry and to try to get u to sympathize with both sides and to show that revenge is an unending cycle and if u continue on that path u could lose everything great gameplay and beautiful graphics

    Game looks and plays amazing. Any fan of the first game is in for an emotional onslaught. Also paints a vivid picture for the "human condition" and makes you question your own morality and think of who the actual "good guys" are in a scenario. I'm beyond impressed. Can't wait to see the multiplayer when it drops.

    Okay, yeah, something happens in first 2 hours of the game. But there are still good gameplay, best graphics and masterpiece story. Game is showing Joel’s and Ellie’s story from other side and it was unexpected from Naughty Dog. They knew that fans of the original game will hate sequel, but there was a small chance that people will try to understand the new story.

    Reasons why people are hating this game.
    1.They think that everyone must be immortal.
    2. Playing as Abby - Abby is very good written character but people are hating her because she *khm* (Although, she had a very good motivation)
    3.IT’S A FREAKING TREND TO HATE TLOU2 - I don't know why but that’s true. Some people are rating 0 on metacritic only because of leaks, they didn’t even played it.

    What we love most about first part? Joel’s and Ellie’s relationship. It would be awesome to see that in second part, but we didn’t wait 7 years for that. We were waiting for a game with best graphics, gameplay, story and we did get that! Plus we got a small, fantastic episode of good old Joel and Ellie.
    Why can’t you just put aside emotional luggage from the first part and just play?
    This game doesn’t deserve fu**in deserve 4.4...Naughty dog doesn’t deserve this hate...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I think this is the best game of this generation. Abby has to be one of the most well written characters in the history of gaming. Don’t judge this off of review bombs by people that didn’t play the game. Metacritic should require you to post a picture of your physical/digital copy of this game in order to review it. Watching a spoiler montage completely out of context or watching a blabbing YouTuber or Twitch streamer pandering to an audience of gamers that want to hate the game isn’t gonna cut it. You have to experience this thing in its entirety yourself. This is truly a masterclass in story and game design. Expand

    I've been a big fan of TLOU, i was so excited for the sequel, and all the hype, until the leaks came out by one person and the internet was, y'know, rage. But I've managed to escape all spoilers i can, after i beat the game. I feel nothing, so i gave it a another try, and then something inside me changed, and i finally understand the story, because i went open-minded this time.

    Never before have i experienced something like this. ND really knows what they're doing and how to trigger the emotions that they want to trigger. Amazing how a game teaches you a few lessons along the way and forces you to look in the mirror having to admit to yourself that you might have been wrong before. An experience i'll never forget.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I loved the first game, but surprisingly I might love this one even more. I felt so many emotions while playing and loved the relationships shown between Ellie/Dina and Ellie/Joel and how they developed. The gameplay was polished and fun, with cool animations and satisfying sound design. The settings were also diverse and you can really optimize what kind of challenge you want when playing. The story was suspenseful and bittersweet. However, if I’m going to nitpick the story did have some holes. Off the top of my head I can think of a few, such as why weren’t Joel and Tommy more cautious around Abby and her friends? They’ve lived a long time in a post-apocalyptic world and have wronged many, so I don’t think they’d be so open to share personal info. Also, I can understand how Tommy would turn spiteful in the end of the game, but if felt sudden and out of nowhere. It felt out of character to be that harsh towards Ellie. Maybe if we saw more development with Tommy and his anger towards Joel’s death it wouldn’t be surprising. Overall though I have very few gripes with the game and consider it a work of art. Just because the story didn’t always go the way I wanted to doesn’t make it a bad game. Although I still feel resentment towards Abby and will defend Joel for his actions, I was relieved that Ellie spared Abby in the end. Not for Abby’s sake, but for Ellie’s. She found her peace with Joel and realized she didn’t have to kill Abby to do it. The fight at the end showed how exhausting holding on to the pain and anger was, when neither of them truly wanted to continue. Ok that’s my rambling for today. Great game. Highly recommend. Expand

The ability to dodge is a good addition. The sneaking works very well with the added ability to crawl and different ways of going through the environment. The puzzle phases are so much better than in the first game and more diverse with the ropes, the jumps, all the windows you can go through. The maps are much more open (at least during the first half of the game) with a lot of things you can easily miss if you go in a straight line (pretty much every weapon and upgrades can be missed). The ambient music works really well to raise the tension. The facial animations combined with the acting make every character look so real, you can read everything on their faces. The accessiblity options also are unrivaled. To sum it up, everything is really, really good and if you liked the first game I don't see how you can dislike this one based on everything I just mentioned.

    Now, for the controversial aspect, the story. It is incredible. However, the game does not go easy on you. At all. Prepare to be upset several times. That said, the hard parts are there for a reason and not for shock value. They make sense. And they make more and more sense the further you go in the story, and take into account every character's motivations. The story in itself is simple but emotionally complicated, a lot more than the first game's that is very straightforward. If you haven't read any spoiler, the better because ouf of context any story can look bad, hell the first game's story can hold on a post-it note. Around mid-game, something happens. If you can get over it and just enjoy the ride, you will love this game. The second half of the game probably is my favorite part because of the weapons you have and the environments you go through as well as the dialogs.

    I am sorry to say it, but I think that a lof of hateful reviews are left by people that are either not emotionally mature (the game is supposed to be 18+ remember ?) ,or mad that this game's story is not what they wanted, or they just decided that they hated the game before they even played it. So, go for it, make you own opinion and I think that you'll see that the game is incredible. Probably my GOTY.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. En general, me ha gustado. La trama es buena, pero quizá yo hubiera acortado algo el juego, ya que al final se hace algo tedioso y estás deseando que acabe. Los gráficos son espectaculares y la movilidad es bastante continuista respecto al primero, pero con toques más impredecibles. Las batallas son más tensas ya que la IA ha mejorado bastante. A parte de que los enemigos interaccionan más y eso le da mucha vida y tensión.

    Tras acabarlo, me queda un sentimiento de vacío emocional por las decisiones que toman las protagonistas. Siento que el ciclo de venganza ha terminado y que cada una ha sufrido las consecuencias de sus actos. No es el final que esperaba (feliz), pero no me desagrada. A día de hoy, sigo digiriendo las decisiones finales de Ellie y el final de esta historia.

    Bien hecho, Naughty Dog!

    Actualizo: Rejugado por 3ra vez y pasado al 100%. Esta vez se me ha hecho más ameno y más profundo e interesante. Sigo creyendo que es un juegazo con mucho simbolismo narrativo.

TLOU2 gameplay mechanic however has not changed drastically compared with the original game. Of course there are some interesting improvements in TLOU part 2, for example we can hide now in the tall grass, jump, avoid punches, break windows (amazing animation BTW.), explore bigger locations and use the map, but these are not big changes and generally it feels like playing the same game. We still need to plan each encounter with enemies and use different strategy, we still need to search for supplies and "spend" each bullet / weapon careffuly. I also like story despite the hate. It's shocking and surprising and I feel like it's a good continuation to the previous game (some people were expecting a fairy tale for real? :p)

    TLOU1 was already 10/10 from me, and TLOU2 is even better. Part 2 takes gamers on an emotional rollercoaster with insane graphics and fun combat, and I will replay it many times for sure.

    Undisputed masterpiece playful video of all time (for me of course), soundtrack hit the spot, full of feeling hate and pain, it seemed to see a movie where you empathized with every single character you knew going forward with the story.
    they connected very well the end of the first chapter with the second, I twisted my nose a bit with the introduction of the second main character at the beginning but then I understood the reason for this addition (abbey)
    -final (spoiler alert)
    ellie cannot kill abbey because she can empathize with her even when she has killed her "father". she sees joel in her, abbey saves lev and ellie remembers that figure as if she were joel ... fantastic!

I found both Ellie and Abby to be wonderfully well written characters, two sides of the same coin..I absolutely dispised Abby to begin with but by the ending i needed her to survive. The supporting characters Dina and Lev were wonderful, fully fitting in with their companions with ease. And making you root for them to be the positive influence that both Ellie and Abby needed.
    The accessibility settings blew me away, I'm fortunate that I can play without them but the fact that they are so intensive means this game is truly accessible to nearly ALL gamers. Cant wait to jump back in and start it all over again... once I've recovered from the emotional rollercoaster that this game delivers.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Este juego es increible, buenos graficos, banda sonora, historia muy buena tambien, nose si tan buena como tlou 1, pero sin lugar a duda es una obra maestra también. No entiendo a esa gente que se la pasa criticando al juego por la muerte de joel, ya que es un mundo apocaliptico y tuvimos suerte q dure hasta la 2da entrega, naugthy dog quiere demostrar lo duro que seria un mundo apocaliptico como el que trata el juego y lo cruel q seria vivir en un mundo asi, intenta interpretar la realidad, ya desde tlou 1 pasaba esto solo que ahora le toca a joel. una verguenza q le pongan un 0 únicamente por que no les gustaron algunas cosas de la historia; el juego no es solo historia (aunque se q tlou sobresale por este punto) sino también muisca, gráficos y los escenarios están muy bien logrados, mas lastima me da que esos q le ponen un 0 luego van y puntúan con un 7,8,9,10 juegos q no le llegan ni a los talones a este... pero bueno supongo q eso es lo que tiene cuando sacas un juego q es una obra maestra, después te exigen el doble.

    Awsome game. Naughty dog, if you read this. Keep going. You are awsome. We need developers hwo dares something. This is like the Raiden Story. The poeple hated Raiden for not being Solid Snake. And today they love him. The poeple hwo rated a 0 to this game has lost the control over they lifes Xd. Sad very sas what's going on in this world.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Tbh, I was kinda disappointed of Joel dying in the first 2 hours. Joel was a smart and experience survivalist in the first game. I was furious about it. However after finishing the game, I accepted it. Accept that anything can happen to even someone that's strong. Some billionaires even fall and lives on the streets now. So why can't a video game character like Joel make mistakes?? Even if people are furious about the fact that he died too early. The character development for everyone else were amazing. The ending was another level of amaziness. Even though the game has some minor set backs., But it's still hands down one of the best games in gaming history. Naughty dog has done it again. An emotional impactful game like no other company is capable of. Expand

    Game of the generation. Excellent storytelling, graphics, and atmosphere. A revenge story with a meaningful message for our current world. You need to have an open mind, because it isn't a story you wanted after the first game, but it's a story the writers wanted to tell, and they were damn right.

Apesar dos pequenos problemas de roteiro, tlou2 entrega uma experiência incrível, polêmica e reflexiva que exigiu bastante coragem e ousadia da Naughty Dog. Resumindo, tlou2 tem problemas, mas é tão grandioso em tantos aspectos como level design, gráfico, gameplay que as pequena falhas do roteiro são engolidas.

    All the hate and negative reviews are just a testimony as to how brilliant the first game was and how beloved Joel and Ellie were.

TLOU has already demonstrated us the studio's ability to throw curve balls and poke the Amygdala but part 2 proves that they can also put you on your wit’s end by forcing you to make impossible decisions and then leaving you perplexed making you question yourself if it was morally correct. I sincerely believe naughty dog really outdid themselves and the whole industry with this part by crafting something that captures the true marrow of what we as humans are and can be. I think that the developers have transcended the idea of what a game should be and can be. They have democratized the characters and made them more humane, susceptible to everything a real-life person is. As for the characters, they are as real and raw now as they can be. Instead of the usual hero- villain roles the boundaries are blurred and marred with some much blood and gore that the roles become interchangeable and almost indistinguishable. The inspiration from GTA5 and Until Dawn is evident but the stories intertwingling with such complexity that both Abbey and Ellie become the opposite sides of the same coin.
    I believe it is the kind of game that cannot be enjoyed with a preoccupied mind and a personal bias, with the expectations of a positive, cheerful and uplifting story like the last game. TLOU was the story of Joel exploring the themes of love, compassion and hope when everything around was miserable and bleak, TLOU2 is the opposite, Ellie exploring the feelings of revenge, hatred and above else guilt, even when everything around is in order, when everyone around is as loving as they can be. It is about coming to terms with everything that they had either done or witnessed. Above all it is a mature coming of age story in a post-apocalyptic world. It is the kind of game that will act as a milestone for all future games in terms of emotional depth and driving themes. It is the epitome of how deep into the void video games can descend. I feel betrayed not by the game but by the so-called loyal fans of the series. Life is not always fair and not everyone gets what they desire or deserve. The decision to depict that distress must have been hard for the studio itself but they did it anyways because they felt that it was the right thing to do and that is something not many people out there are prepared to make.
    I sincerely believe most of the criticism is just unjust and is there because the game was spoiled for much of the fanbase. As for the complaints regarding all the agenda pushing, I believe it’s all a matter of double standards, on one side people laude unreleased games like Cyberpunk for its inclusivity but they harshly criticize TLOU2 for the same. And it was not as if it was done in a Rowling way, everyone who had played Left Behind already knew what was in store.
    Making a generic storyline, with a happily lived ever after ending would have been more commercially successful and would have been in straighter alignment with the wider expectations. We all know it would have been a great commercial success and would have easily found its way into many of the year’s top games lists, but that would have been a commercial victory not an artistic one. I sincerely thank God that naughty dog decided otherwise. True artists please themselves not others and TLOU2 is artistic vision realized impeccably.

    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.
