    It’s one of the best games of all time, fan criticism is just stupid, you got good development of the characters, their motivations and all of that just ends in a mature and impressive way. You have to play this game not being followed by the idea that the protagonist (Ellie) is always going to win and act like a killer

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game nearly broke me. I was so conflicted while playing. I couldn’t abide by the anger and revenge Ellie wouldn’t let go of. I was so livid having to start again as Abby. And overall it was just so **** harrowing and sad. I snot-cried at the end. But I FELT that emotion so many times throughout. Tension, excitement, glee, happiness, sadness, frustration, fear, sweetness. I went through all those emotions and more. I couldn’t wait to see what was next. And I loved the risks in storytelling. I loved the women protagonists kicking ass. I loved the Scars whistling. I loved the lush environment. I loved the gameplay and stealth (OMG did I love the stealth mechanics). Would have been fun to film myself for my gleeful reactions to vicious sneaky stealth kills and then right after I’m upset that I had to smash Nora and audibly yelling “STOP ELLIE I don’t want to do this” at the final fight with Abby. Clearly, this game worked and it really got to me. It’s a masterpiece.

    Incredible piece of media. One that will outlast all this wild vitriol some of the Internet is tossing at it. The two games together are some of the best media i have ever engaged with. Thanks Naughty Dog!!!    … Expand

    I'm just here to laugh at gamers. I haven't played the game but I've gotten all the entertainment I need out of their ridiculously bad takes.

    How dare they kill off a main character? How dare they have moral ambiguity? How dare woman not make pp hard?

    I sure am glad no game has ever made these mistakes before!

This game does not aim to please fans, or cater to what they would have wanted in a story. Instead, if stays true to its own rules, and world that we were introduce to in the first game. Naughty Dog refrained from creating a cash grab feel good game, and instead tells a moving tale about revenge, humanity and the consequences of others, and your own actions. The game is gripping, moving, unrelenting, and somber, and people dislike it for it. Yet that was the tone of the first game. I really don't think anyone could create a real opinion on it unless you play it for yourself, or watch someone play through it fully. I won't ramble on about the graphics, but the gameplay is very similar to the first game, but almost every aspect of it has been improved here. Environments are huge, combat scenarios can be tackled in 10-20 different ways. There are some flaws here, as no game is perfect. Something that definitely could have been improved in my opinion, is the environmental storytelling. To much of it depends on stopping and reading a note, and I would have loved some fallout-esque set design. The pacing of the game can also be criticized, as the game can feel drawn out at some moments, both on the front end of the game, and the back end. They could have shaved 4-5 hours off, and I feel the the story would have flowed a bit better.

    All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed my time in this game. Sure I didn't leave with a massive grin on my face, but not every story is ment to invoke that kind of response, but that sure as hell doesn't mean it's a bad story.    … Expand

Es impactante la historia, ya que muestra las dos caras de la moneda, es difícil entender el por qué manejamos a Abby ya que ella mató al personaje más querido por toda la comunidad fans de The Last Of Us, y no me simpatizó jugar con ella, pero no es sinónimo de que no sea interesante la historia de ella, además se comprende la sed de venganza de las dos, el paralelismo en la historia hace que sea una oleada de emociones una tras otra. Felicito al equipo de Naughty Dog y a Neal Druckmann, se arriesgaron mucho con esta historia, que no ha simpatizado a muchos, y esta bien, no le tiene que gustar a todos, pero las criticas hay que hacerlas con base y criterio, no de forma grosera y tóxica como lo ha hecho muchos. También ha sido un final muy triste, es algo atípico que suceda y hace que sea una excelente historia, se sale del canon común, y de nuevo, es un excelente juego, y espero que el mejor de esta generación.… Expand

    This game hit two great points for me - I loved the story and would have watched it as a movie, and the gameplay was mostly very engaging.

The layouts of fights were sometimes claustrophobic enough to induce panic, and sometimes wide and open with many options for stealth or head-on fights. I had a brief moment around 60% of the way through the game where I was feeling a bit of drag and was tempted to go read ending spoilers to see where everything was going. I'd recommend powering through if you haven't been spoiled - I'm glad I did!

    The good:
    Characters: The supporting cast was charming and fun without devoting too much game time to fleshing them out. Ellie is older and is grappling with some heavy stuff, and you can't help but feel everything alongside of her. New characters are a welcome addition to the mix of motivations and interactions.
    Setting: The locations are great and feel fresh, even spots that can be overused in games (subway stations, banks)

    The bad:
    Timeline/series of events: Sometimes I felt a little like I was watching Westworld Season 2. Where are we? What's already happened? Non-linear timelines can be executed well, but in this case it was a bit distracting. The structure of the game was already a creative use of timelines, so adding in random flashbacks was additionally jarring.
    Theme/gameplay combo: This game has a strong message about choice, but at no point did I feel I could make a meaningful impact on the story. Games that are on rails are totally fine, but I have to imagine a small decision tree could have been implemented to great effect.

    Overall, great game. Suffers from a sequel's curse of not quite hitting exactly the same notes as the first game, but amazing nonetheless.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us Part II is an incredibly harrowing but beautiful and well-crafted masterpiece.
    At first glance, you are absolutely not in doubt that this is another striking piece from Naughty Dog.

    They have truly mastered their craft and once again delivered an incredibly beautiful game.
    The graphics are some of the most impressive I have ever seen, and I still can't believe that this is able to run on a regular PS4. Playing on the Pro with a 4K HDR TV just makes it more incredible, so if you're fortunate enough to own a Pro and a 4K TV, this is really a feast for your eyes.
    The gameplay mechanics are a huge upgrade from the first games with several new cool features and animations that makes your jaw drop to the floor. It's fun and engaging and just like the first game, it feels grounded and realistic, particularly due to the realistic violence and gore. Bashing an enemy with a pipe or any other melee weapon feels almost uncomfortable. You feel every blow and the aftermath is gruesome. Guns are loud and heavy and each shot feels deadly.
    The AI is also a huge improvement from the somewhat buggy and "dumb" AI from the first game. They are much more intelligent and unpredictable.
    I shot a WLF member two times and she dropped to the ground, screaming in agony from the gunshot wound I had inflicted. It felt so real and it felt terrible as another WLF member yelled "Ashley!" as he ran towards her. I didn't just kill a random enemy NPC. I killed his friend, Ashley.
    Another WLF was walking with his dog. I shot him with a silenced pistol and he immediately fell to the ground. Dead. His dog noticed immediately and started going in circles around him, whimpering and not wanting to leave his side. I felt terrible, but in another scenario, that dog would've tried to chew me to pieces had I been spotted. The first game was brutal, but in Part II, you really feel the weight of the violence and the consequences of your actions.

    Where Naughty Dog truly excels with this game is with the incredibly bold and intense story and narrative. The first game was a masterpiece and deserved all the praise it got. I still consider it my favorite game of all time, and with Part II it just adds so much more to the first game. Sadly, many people have very mixed opinions about the sequel, and the user reviews here tells you the same story. It's not a game for everyone but I don't understand the ridiculous amount of hate that this game has gotten.

    The story of Part II continues where we left off in Part I and tells an incredibly harrowing and engaging story that leaves you feeling uncomfortable and stressed during the majority of the game. It's NOT a fun game and I never expected it to be either.

    There is so much more depth to the characters and they feel just as real as in the first game. The new characters are interesting and well-written and there are so many twists that leaves you completely speechless.

    This story is incredibly divisive and ambiguous and while there are certain things I definitely wasn't onboard with regarding this story, I can definitely appreciate the storytelling and why things had to happen the way they did. You need to have an open mind in order to fully grasp and appreciate this story. It's not an easy story and many people aren't onboard with the things that happens, but it's truly done in a way that respects the characters and their journey and adds so much more depth to the first game.

    I have a massive amount of respect for Naughty Dog to create such an ambitious game and they really nailed it with Part II with just about everything. No matter what other people say about this game, you really HAVE to experience it on your own. Make up your own mind and don't trust the user reviews here.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A lot of people are descrediting what the game tried to achieve based on one thing and one thing only. And that's how I felt in the beginning too. When I got to the part where they killed Joel off, I wanted to smash my new TLOU2 themed controller. Turned off my console immediatly as I was pissed off as to why they would kill off one of the best characters so unceremoniously. I also kept thinking that walking into a trap like that was totally out of character for Joel.
    But then I turned my PS4Pro back on, and started to play from there. By the time I got to Abby's part, I was like don't **** make me play as this **** Then I spent another 12 or so hours as Abby and got to know Yara and Levi. My point of view shifted from black and white to grey, as it does most of the time in real life too when I judge something too quick.
    By the time I was approaching the end I started to sneak way more around entire enemies and avoid all the meaningless killings, as I had enough of that. And surely, by the time I finally reached the beach, and confronted a worn down Abby, as I was pressing square everytime it came up, I kept thinking, give us a choice damn it, don't make us kill anymore people in this game. This is what this game does to you. I came around full circle. It truly is one of the best games of this generation, be it story-wise or gameplay wise.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I think the story didn't please everyone because everyone kinda wanted a happy ending or something that they would expect. On the contrary, even though the ending is sad and unbearable to the point I have nightmares, i totally love it. it made me think. which I think is good. The choices Ellie's choose to make were very characteristic to the human being. She couldn't free herself from the burden and the loss of her adoptive father. Obviously if you think ln a objective view, you would think her choice were dumb and that should have let it go, which I agree! But that's her story and we gotta understand that that is her point of view and that we can't just put our-self in the place of Ellie.

    Remember when Joel saved Ellie from the Hospital, you were all agreeing that killing a doctor for selfish purpose was ok. Abby seeked revenge, Ellie seeked revenge too. It's human. It's just retribution.

    On another note, I think the staff really made a good work, such as the way they wanted the game to be played. Like the intro with Abby, then Ellie for the revenge, and then the 2nd part with Abby point of view, to finally with Ellie again.

    Final note : 9/10, love the story    … Expand

    Wonderful game, internet hate comes from a host of fragile Egos who are unable to deal with the fact that the story didn’t go their way or are generally bigoted. I’m sure some people legitimately didn’t like this game, but they aren’t the ones trolling. Loved the game!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. SPOILER ALERT! This is the best game that I have ever played. No other piece of media has made such a deep emotional impact on me. The storytelling was masterful; captivating and immersive the entire way through. Yes, it was really emotionally painful, but that's what I expected and wanted. Actually, it far surpassed expectations. I'm sure like many others, from the trailers and teasers that came out before the game, I had guessed that Dina was going to be the one who was murdered by some group, and the game was going to be Ellie and Joel going on a revenge mission together. I was taken by complete surprise that it turned out to be Joel who was murdered. Big, huge, humble props to the developers for pulling that off. I am a young woman with a father that reminds me of Joel, so playing Ellie and watching his death hit me really hard. Having so much emotional investment in Joel made Ellie's anger over his murder so much more compelling. Then they devoted so much time to Abby's side, and to her character, that I empathized with her side of the story as well. As much as we love Joel, he did stop the development of a vaccine that could have saved so many lives and could have turned the apocalypse around. On top of that, he murdered Abby's father (and a lot of other people) to do it. There's so much pain in this story, as there should be.

    I also really appreciated the inclusion and diversity of the cast. Both main characters were badass women, and they were badass in their own ways. Thank you for giving us Abby's biceps (I hope she is able to get them back someday). My one and only complaint is that I wish they would have called out Owen more for being such a piece of ****

    The graphics, audio, and gameplay were all astounding. There was so much detail in every level and the landscape felt very real. The audio amplified the emotions at every point. The enemies were terrifying. My boyfriend pointed out that making the flashlight invisible to zombies made the dark and scary parts all the better, because it could be creepy without taking away the players' ability to see.

    Amazing game all around.    … Expand

When you see people giving this game a 0 or a 1, that's the reason. However, I would argue that once it is all said and done, that is WHY this game is so incredible. I would classify this game as a masterpiece because of the incredibly challenging narrative that makes you question morality. But not just the characters, but also your own and that of your heroes. And not just in the obvious ways of "Is violence bad?" But to the extent as which people will go, the motivations, the responses to others' actions - It is a wildly powerful story about empathy and revenge and the cycle of violence.

    On top of all of this, the graphics are jaw-dropping. They're as good as you remember Part 1 being, until you play Part 1 again and realize just how far Naughty Dog has taken it with this second game. The gameplay has also stepped it up in ways that feel more modern and fun, with many different ways to handle various situations that are thrown at you. Guns blazing, stealth, and even running for your life are all viable options here in most scenarios. The music is perfectly scored, and I'd feel I was doing you and the team a disservice if I didn't tell you to listen to the song in the end credits. Gives me chills.

    Please give this game your love and attention. And when you're 5 hours in and you are just mad and angry and don't want to play anymore because of how things have panned out, keep going because that is the point and you can't cheat yourself out of one of the best stories of our generation.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To everyone saying that the story is bad. Incorrect, the narrative is bad. Get your head on straight. Joel is not a good person and wether you like it or not, he was eventually going to pay for his actions anyway. The world is still realistic enough that it still makes sense. Going out of your way to leave a bad review on a game that you clearly haven’t played all the way through is wrong. Now, I get that people are mad at the ending as well... And Abby. But to explain Abby, yes, I hate how you play nearly the rest of the game as her just as you were starting to have fun with Ellie. This is were the NARRATIVE is wrong, not the story. By shoving you in to play a character you hate, and making her seem likable, it’s hard to play that portion of the game. The only way they could have fixed this is by splitting the Ellie and Abby scenes up leading to them meeting up together. The next thing is that the ending is bad. It’s questionable and symbolic, yes, but not bad. I’m not saying it’s great either but there are some thing you need to realize. Symbolism is a big feature in this game. The moth (one of the key symbols) is to display how moths are attracted to light, which kills them, just how Ellie is attracted to revenge, it takes everything away from her, just as it also took Abby’s friends. But the symbolic ending isn’t that Ellie was trying to avenge Joel, she was trying to find peace instead, which is why she spares Abby when she forgives Joel (the last flashback). The ending also isn’t as sad as you may think. As many people have pointed out, Ellie has her bracelet that Dina gave her AFTER the fight with Abby at the end, but not when she left to go find her. All of Ellie’s stuff is also gone from the house except a few paintings and anything related to Joel. This is most likely to show that she is still with Dina in Jackson but has come to finally let Joel rest (leaving all of his stuff behind and his guitar). She does this by playing the first notes of Joel’s song, and then leaves into the woods. If I were to guess, a Part III would be a sort of redemption arc that will hopefully not make the same mistakes this game did. Final note, to touch on bs arguments, here:
    LGBTQ-guys, it’s 2020, move on and get over it.
    Abby has BIg aRmS-Really? What argument is that, it’s kinda sexist and I would suggest looking up the person they modeled Abby’s body for.
    Politics-Sure, it makes the game bad, but it doesn’t. If you want politics, watch the first game. FEDRA vs FireFlies is the definition of politics.
    Religion-I mean... ok?
    Boring to play-there are difficulty settings...

    Closing note: this game isn’t bad but it’s not the best thing on the planet. If this game were to be for everyone’s expectations, it would be boring. It would make the entire game guessable if it was what somebody wants. Also, this game follows the same act story that the first game had. A person sets out on a journey to complete a task ultimately changing their mind in the end. I’m talking about the first game here, not the second.    … Expand

    People need to complete this game before judging it.
    Everyone is so upset about Joel dying and the number one argument I'm seeing is that he was catious in the first game and is somehow trusting in the second?"
    Think about how many people are in their encampment now, and the situation they just got out of being chased down by a horde. They spent years building it to that degree and their is always risks with strangers, but there is HAS to be some form of vulnerability to allow a camp to grow that large. There has to be some form of trust. Joel had a moment of vulnerability, it's a human mistake.
    For anyone that actually completed the game the whole theme was about how cruel life can be and how one decision stretches to affect everything around them. Decisions made by all characters which were masterfully portrayed and the very real threat that life could end at any moment. This is a MUST PLAY. It has the best acting you can find out there with the best graphics you can find on the market with an INSANELY dark and gripping story about humanity that you have to experience    … Expand

Remember that it's a story-driven game where you are being shown the story, much like a book or film, and not one where you will get to take it in the direction you wish to see it go. If you can be fine with that, I think you are much more likely to have a better time with this game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just finished The Last of Us part II and I’d give it a 9.5/10. If this game could be described as a quote it would be “An eye for eye ends up making the whole world blind.” This game beautifully captures the brutality of never ending violence In part II the story gives real consequences to each characters actions. People who hate the story simply don’t understand its message or are obnoxiously in love with a character and never want to see harm done to them (which is extremely childish). ‬

    The Last of Us I & II are games where people die. It’s a violent, scary, and brutal world. Giving a character never ending luck not only discredits the story but is a slap in the face to fans. Joel and Ellie are NOT immortal. Get over it. ‬

    Bringing back the theme of never ending violence (a cycle of violence). Joel and Ellie are beloved characters but they are by no means good people. They’ve both killed innocent people.‬

    Did Joel deserve what happened to him? If you say no then let me ask you this did all those fireflies deserve to die? Did the world deserve to be robbed of their chance at curing the world? Millions of lives for Ellie’s life? Is that fair? That’s why this story is so good. ‬

    This story is so good because if you put yourself in the shoes of any one of these characters you can find a way to justify their actions.‬

    If you’re Joel: you lost Sarah and didn’t have the chance to save her. With Ellie you have a chance to save her and you love her like she’s your daughter. As Joel you can easily justify every action he made. ‬

    If you’re Abby: your father was murdered by a man who killed most of the fireflies. You want justice to be served. As Abby you’re justified in your actions. ‬

    If you’re Ellie: you’re father figure and a man you love dearly was beaten to death in front of you, BRUTALITY. You want revenge. You will kill anyone and do anything to get justice (sounds familiar? Abby was on the same mission). As Ellie you’re justified in your actions. ‬

    The ending of the game and the reason Ellie didn’t go through with killing Abby is because if she did 1 it wouldn’t bring Joel back and 2 it would just continue the cycle of violence. Ellie understood why Abby was after Joel. Ellie could see herself in Abby. ‬

    If we were to never start out as Joel and Ellie but as Abby we would view Ellie as the ‘bad guy’. They did an amazing job with this story. ‬

    The game was great. It was not SJW trash. It didn’t push any sort of SJW narrative. Most of the Hate about the game is blown out of proportion. It’s a game you have to experience.    … Expand

Реализовано это в типичной для naughty dog стиле, когда игрок переходит из одной небольшой локации в другую попутно уничтожая противников и решая головоломки или же общаясь с другим персонажами для раскртия сюжета, то есть игра придельно линейная, что лично я не считаю за недостаток, для любителей открытого мира есть множество других игр. С технической состовляющий игра выглядит на пределе возможностей платформы PS4, отлично нарисованные модели персонажей, проработанные до мелочей локации(от пшеничных полей освещенных закатным солнцем до жуткого подвала больницы в который я 5 минут заставлял себя просто спустится), потрящающие освещение. Бой с превосходящими силами противника заставляют грамотно использовать окружение и арсенал, без стелс элемента пройти игру практически невозможно, противнику умело действуют в составе группы, постоянна пытаюсь обойти героя с флангов или зайти со спины. Отдельно хотел отметить звук в игре, он отлично создает атмосферу - взрывы, выстрелы, вой монстров, крики раннненых все это выполненно на высочайшем уровне и помогает полному погружению в происходящие на экране. По всем показателям данная игра выходит за рамки просто качественного продукта а является настоящим произведением исскуства. Я рекомендую всем поиграть в эту игру и составить свое мнение не поддаваясь потоку не обоснованной критики, уверен вы как минимум получите удовольствие, а как максимум зададите себе вопросы которые раньше перед вами не стояли.… Expand

    I subscribe to the idea that imperfect games can score a 10. There are certainly minor flaws here - occasionally dumb AI, gating sometimes inhibiting exploration, etc, but the incredible writing, acting, gameplay, and storytelling vastly overshadow the flaws.

    the negative comments here are a joke, clearly many of them didn’t even play the game to say that the gameplay is bad, you can even understand who didn’t like the ending, now say that the gameplay is bad, you’re kidding, the game overcame everything to the former in terms of mechanics in the game, it is sad to see that nowadays many people are left with their prejudice simply because Elliethe negative comments here are a joke, clearly many of them didn’t even play the game to say that the gameplay is bad, you can even understand who didn’t like the ending, now say that the gameplay is bad, you’re kidding, the game overcame everything to the former in terms of mechanics in the game, it is sad to see that nowadays many people are left with their prejudice simply because Ellie is gay and ignored the rest, it is sad, but even with that the game was still brilliant, a of the most complex stories I saw in games, in my opinion it surpassed the first game, I expected a standard story with everyone leaving happy in the end as it is every game, but this one surprised too positively for some and negative for others, that's debatable, but for me, I liked it a lot, I recommend it too much.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Auténtica obra maestra. 10/10 Historia: 10/10
    Entiendo que haya gente que no le gusto, no es un juego para cualquiera, donde el bueno siempre gana, dónde el protagonista es un superman o un Gary Stu, no enseña que todos son humanos y pueden morir y cometer errores ( y nos lo deja claro con la muerte de Joel), dónde todo acaba de forma épica, no! Esto es un juego con mensaje, un juego realista, podría decir que un poema a lo cruda que es la vida, Ellie es una adolescente y actúa como tal, impulsada por su sed de venganza no provoca más que dolor y pérdidas, al igual que Abby(aunque de esta última si exista una evolución de personaje, dado al significado que le dio a su vida el niño serafita).

    Elli y Abby no son más que peones de guerra, de la envidia del hombre, la lucha de sociedades y todas las bajas de ambos bandos solo son mártires de guerra que murieron por sus malas desiciones. Hay muchos mensajes en este juego, el primero es aceptar lo que nos ocurre de manera inteligente, no arriesgar todo solo por vengar y mal juzgar, y aquí viene el otro mensaje, en la sociedad siempre juzgamos lo que vemos (abby matando a Joel, todos odiamos a abby en ese Momento) pero realmente no sabemos cual es el otro lado de la moneda(Joel mató al padre de abby y condenó a la humanidad a no tener cura), nos enseña a evolucionar (abby dejando vivir a ellie y evitando pelear con ella al final), y que no vale la pena arriesgar todo lo bueno que ya tenemos por nada(ellie perdiendo a Dina y sus dedos, por lo que también perdió la musica) Un final crudo, no idealista, si eres de gustos básicos nada complicados y te gustan las películas de hollywood donde el final es el que más satisface al consumidor y el bueno siempre se sale con las suyas...este no es tu juego, al menos con la historia.


    Jugabilidad: 10/10
    Estoy frente al mejor juego lineal, los controles se siente super naturales, lo jugué en su máxima dificultad, los enemigos se alertan rápidamente y los recursos son escasos(como en una situación real)

    El sentido de supervivencia y de sentir la muerte en cada esquina hace que la experiencia sea inmersiva, puedes llegar a sentir que realmente estas allí dentro. Los amplios espacios para explorar, la creatividad para desarrollar entornos y obstáculos es magistral.

    El uso de cuerdas, romper vidrios, desviar la atención de enemigos hace que la propia creatividad del jugador vuele.

    Música:10/10
    Te hace sentir la nostalgia de la entrega pasada con esos acordes, la tensión y el sentido de la supervivencia en momentos cruciales , la inocencia de momentos de paz con Dina y su hijo , la tranquilad mientras vas en campo abierto, todo se agudiza con tan espectacular ambientación sonora.

    Gráficos: 10/10
    Este apartado podría ser un 9/10 sin embargo para la capacidad de la actual generación es espectacular, habría que ver su adaptación a la nueva generación.

    Nada que decir el juego habla por si solo


    Veredicto final : no es un juego para cualquier público, sobre todo si estás acostumbrado a finales binarios (el malo gana, o el bueno gana), es un juego para disfrutar, y hacer incluso introspección en la vida propia, un poema de juego.    … Expand

    I enjoyed the great graphics, the story, voice acting, AI, and the statement on violence/revenge. The gameplay was very good, but got monotonous and predictable. It was the same thing over and over: kill humans in an area, look for loot, kill infected, go to cut scene. And, then the story kept running me back and forth between the hospital and aquarium like four times.

And, then the story kept running me back and forth between the hospital and aquarium like four times. Needed more puzzle/escape rooms. Those were fun. Upgrading your skills and weapons was boring and almost pointless in such a short game. Didn’t see much difference after upgrading. But, it gave a good reason to look for items, which was fun. Would have been a perfect 10 if the gameplay hadn’t gotten so repetitive!… Expand

    Schöner zweiter Teil.Hätte mir bloß noch nen Multiplayer wie im ersten gewünscht. Endlich mal wieder mal wieder lineares Gameplay ich kann diese ganzen open worlds nicht mehr sehen. Die Story fand ich toll wie im ersten Teil.

    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]
