    The game is just incredible, and show how you can lose yourself with the vengeance. The game has some narrative problems, and it's a bit hard to connect with Abby in the game. But, anyway, made me cry in the end.

But it’s voice is very unique which I respect a lot in the modern gaming landscape (of sequels) that often just takes the obvious safe route. The technical quality of the game is awe inspiring. The art, animation, controls, audio, quality of coding and quality assurance, you name it. Everything has been done with such care for details that I feel very fortunate to having been able to play through this game. The story really hit me in the feels and I ended up crying a couple of times - and feeling sorry for people who don’t get to experience this due to ”not liking video games”. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the experience everyone at Naughty Dog and everyone else too who had something to do with this game getting made! Expand

And this is the life end of this console generation. The story is great for this wait. The switches in time and from the personal perspectives between Ellie and Abby and see the situations in different eyes are crazy. Better than in halo 5 guardians Expand

I didn't expect anything that happened during my journey playing TLOU2. First time i played the game i was heartbroken from the ending but happy from how good the story actually was. After playing it a more couple times later i suddenly had this weird felling about the story, i started to like it less all of the sudden, something inside me didn't like how things were happening anymore. that was the point where i started liking the game less and less. time passed and after not playing for while i came and started playing again but this time, i felt like i was understanding the events more and more, many things made better sense and that was the point i found my true felling about the game. TLOU2 changed my life forever exactly how TLOU1 did, but it wasn't perfect. it seems like the writers changed their mind along the process of making the game. i can't really say they made the right decision or not, but they didn't made a bad one for sure. They decided to end the revenge cycle after all. After all that saying that the game is not amazing is truly unfair. Expand

    Without a doubt this is the best game I've ever played. The graphics are outstanding, the story is compeling deep and breathtaking. It's just sad all the beef that it's getting just beacuse the story doesn't tell what fans wanted it to tell.

I get that people are upset because THAT happens but, in my eyes, they sort of think that NaughtyDog is in debt with them because "we played the first part and blablabla". Hello? This is NOT your story. You have the right to tell you dont like but that doesnt make the game what you say it is. Grow up.

    In my opinion, what makes the first entry so good was the breaking of stereotypes and the deep care for its characters. This game does that as good or even better. It makes you feel desperated and anxious at first just to make the player feel disorientated, without knowing what to do or to think or what to expect. Then everything changes and you enter in a storm of emotions just to realize everything has a reason, even though we may not like it.

    Was this game worth it? YES, every minute I've played it (around 30h just in one playthrough) and every cent I've spent. If you are searching for a stroy that makes you THINK and an appeling but brutal and cruel world, this is your game. If you want a game with the story you already have in your mind, go for another one, this is not for you.

As a big fan of the first game, which I still consider to have the best story in any video game so far, I was truly conflicted with the change but I said I wanted to see where this was going. Is it possible to forge a relationship with someone who just killed a beloved character? We see her fears and hopes and where her hate comes from. Slowly but surely we don't see her as a 2d character but one that has hopes and wishes and flaws and strength. There are some really heart wrenching scenes and gameplay which aren't suppose to make you feel goody and such. It was planning on making you feel like the character. They managed to do this so well in the first one and managed to do it here as well. The gameplay really got a lot better, one of the things I found to be a bit mediocre in the first one. The graphics are stellar and overall the story kept me wanting to know more and see where this was headed. I couldn't wait to get home and play it. It challenged me, made me sad, angry, happy, disgusted. I do recommend it wholeheartedly. I haven't had this range of emotions and in any game or movie for a long time. The bad reviews that came out the 19th of June should be taken with a lot of skepticism since there is no way that they can have grasped the full range of it all. I can see that you either hate or love this and the middle ground is pretty thin on this one. For me this was a great game which I will come back to and play again. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What a game. I just finished it and felt compelled to write my first ever review on here, due to the review bombing I have been hearing about. The Last of Us Part II is an emotional rollercoaster. Things happen that you wish didn’t, characters make heartbreaking decisions that inevitably have tragic consequences. A lot of fans seem to be mad about the story. Unfortunately in life, and it seems in post-apocalyptic futures, things are complicated. We all have our own goals and ambitions, and sometimes this can lead to conflict with others. This game wonderfully illustrates that just because we might dislike someone we’re not necessarily better than them or more right. I personally loved playing as Abby and seeing events from her perspective. As her section progressed I began to see her as right and Ellie as wrong. I didn’t know who to root for at the end. And the writers deserve a huge amount of credit for that. The game is visually stunning. The world they have built over at Naughty Dog is nothing short of miraculous. The gameplay is fine, although sometimes I found my NPC allies getting in the way a bit. Some of the fights are incredibly intense. In general I’m a sneak and kill player, as you have to be at times in this world to look after your resources. But there are certain fights you can’t avoid. The sequence in the lower floors of the hospital were truly terrifying, but completely exhilarating. The kind of gameplay that you can’t wait to finish but then instantly want to have a go at again once you’ve done it. To wrap up, if you’re mad about the story then you’ve missed the point in my opinion. Ellie and Joel are not saints. They’ve done some terrible things to survive. Same goes for Abby. She is no worse than them, and they are no better than her. And if it’s the LGBT stuff or the abundance of non-white characters in the game that has angered you, then it’s about time you joined the rest of us in the 21st Century. I thought Lev’s storyline in particular was fantastic. No if you excuse me, I need a lie down before my next play through! Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Я прошёл The Last of Us 2! И сейчас у меня такие смешанные чувства, какие у меня не вызывала ни одна игра!
    Если выставлять оценку чисто для себя то это 8,4/10 (округляю до 8-ми).
    Конечно постановка, сюжет, геймплэй вызывают просто нереальные эмоции, которые навряд ли вызовет любая другая игра. Прошло три часа игры, а я уже успел порадоваться, наложить в штаны и поплакать из за смерти сами знаете кого, и так всю игру!
    Очень много сюжетных линий и геймплэйных ситуаций, которые сделаны так, чтобы вызвать у тебя максимальное количество эмоций! Игра непредсказуема, и ты каждые несколько минут охреневаешь от того, что они сделали с историей на этот раз!
    В основном у меня есть две большие претензии к этой игре. Во первых это структура. Я очень люблю истории в которых чётко три акта, мне очень приятно от этого эстетически, и так была построена первая часть, там чётко был первый, второй и третий акт. Ну а в этой с этим какая то очень странная неразбериха... Сначала идёт первый акт, потом второй, вот ты ждёшь финала - третьего акта, но тут тебе снова суют первый акт, потом полноценный второй акт и наконец третий акт ты уже ждёшь титры, но тебе в подарок дают ещё один второй и ещё один третий акт. Это оочень долго и затянуто! И так трижды я ждал конца игры и когда она закончилась я просто не поверил! Это всё? Может ещё один третий акт, не?
    Во вторых то, что под конец игры ты уже не хочешь играть из за того, как история переворачивается с ног на голову! Ты уже хочешь сказать Элли - остановись! Хватит это делать! Но у тебя нет выбора и ты будешь делать отвратительные вещи, если хочешь увидеть финал, финал, в котором ты потерял всё, но так и не достиг цели.
    Так же ещё хочу сказать про геймплэй, потому что он тут просто офигенный! Я проходил игру на пред-максимальной сложности, и ,даже при том, что у меня всегда были патроны и оружие, и я даже мог иногда позволить себе вступить в бой без стэлса и выйти победителем, меня не покидало чувство волнения. Ты переигрываешь локации, что бы сохранить ресурсы, всё время экономишь их. Игра в свою очередь всегда создаёт интересные ситуации, в которых так же есть место вариативности, и они не дают заскучать!
    Феминизм! Как я мог забыть!? А точно! В игре же он почти не бросается в глаза и не бесит!
    Достойное ли это продолжение лучшей игры десятилетия? - А вот это сложный вопрос... Мне кажется у первой The Last of Us не должно быть продолжения, это законченная история.
    Вторая часть хороша как отдельная игра, но она ломает то, что было сделано в первой, так что мой ответ - нет, это НЕ достойное продолжение, но при этом хорошая игра, которая, в силу моих предпочтений, смогла меня зацепить!

Не понимаю эти тупые негативные отзывы, это постоянное нытьё : «онию убюлии Джойла, эта мускулистая, лисбияньки, разработчики не любят азиааатов, хреновый сюжет и т.п.» детский сад! Я переживал за всех героев, все было сделано гениально. Сюжет не пресный, выдержан достойно, диалоги может где-то затянуты, но терпимо. Игра показывает, как может случается по настоящему в нашей жизни, когда ничего изменить уже нельзя. Посыл к мыслям человека хорош и предельно понятен. Сам процесс игры и взаимодействие выстроены просто изумительно. Однозначно - это шедевр! Мне очень жаль, что комьюнити реально деградировало всякими ассасинами, колдой, батлой и т.п. , и ждали от этой части солнышка и печенек. Жаль людей которые так и не захотели посмотреть в лицо предложенного Дракманом сюжет, так же как и главные герои игры совершив ошибки , идя на поводу у своих страстей. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was expecting less than what I experienced. On the contrary of the majority of reviews I’m not mad about Joel dying, since the trailers were released it was obvious that something was gonna happen to him, and that Ellie was going to be moved by that. That’s the whole point of the story, Ellie’s revenge. Both story lines present two human characters who have suffered from the loss of an important person, the story forces you to feel emphatic about both girls and understand that they are antagonists, one will fight the other. The story made me feel nostalgic, terrified, angry... and that end seems perfect to me. Ellie realizing that revenge consumed her, and forgiving Joel. For me this is a masterpiece, and a game for this generation. Expand

This is a true masterpiece in story telling and and world design. When we watch something like G.O.T or Breaking Bad we remember the ending and the journey that took us there. The last of us part 2 still has me thinking about the powerful ending and the journey starting from the last of us 1 that led me there. The questionable decisions the characters are forced to partake in and the consequences for their actions will forever be engraved in my memory and I don't plan on losing those memories for the rest of my life. This game is no longer just a game that I was personally more hyped for than anything (including cyberpunk), this is now a part of my life, a part of my history and it feels like a piece of me is missing whenever I finish and have to realise this may be the last we see of Ellies journey, our journey together.

I'll make this quick and easy, the game is phenomenal, I sit in the group of fans that think The last of us Part 1 didn't need a sequal, I would have been happy to just imagine a future for Joe & Ellie then actually experience it. Saying that though Last of us part 2 hit everything correctly! It could of really been two games.

    I dislike when developers bring outside world issues to video games because its usually done poorly but the way the team managed to weave PTSD & Transgender themes to the game without making it "Trans right movement" was perfect and didn't distract from what was going on but actually added to it.

    While I understand the poor reviews, I don't agree at all with the points they make.

    I'm a major fan of the first Last of Us game and Factions, and I went into this game with an open mind. I completed the game on Hard mode recently, and I thought about it for a couple of days.

    The parts of the game where it truly shines are gameplay, graphics, music, and voice acting. While the story was engaging, there is some room for improvement.

    I found the gameplay to be fun and tense with very limited resources, and more thrilling as the game progressed. The dodge mechanic is one of the best additions to movement. Infected are much more aggressive and dangerous, and the human enemies are much smarter at spotting and flanking you (at least on the harder difficulties). Stealth feels very rewarding as a result. Exploration feels more organic as the environments are much larger than the first game. A standalone Factions mode using these gameplay mechanics has a lot of potential, as I rarely grew bored of it.

    Graphics are phenomenal. This is hands-down one of the best looking games on PS4. It's sometimes hard to look at some of the kills in this game because the brutality is on full display with these graphics.

    The music is mainly used in the background to build tension, and it perfectly matches the dark tone of the game.

    Voice acting is top-notch as to be expected with every Naughty Dog game.

    While I thought the story was good in world building and asking difficult questions when it comes to the themes of vengeance, the game could have been better crafted with regard to the pacing. I found it difficult to feel the type of emotion the first game was able to pull from me due to the weird structure or order of the story (you'll know what I mean if you've played it). At one point, I felt that I had to force myself to finish the game early just to see how earlier scenes play out. This was a little frustrating.

    Another aspect that will turn some players (not all players) off is the SJW politics present in the game. While the story does pass over these moments quickly and they do not really draw away from the character development, it sometimes take me out of the moment (mainly some cringe a little in the early game).

    Overall, the game has fun gameplay with a story that, while does not live up to the story of the first game, is above average and worth playing for yourself.

    Uno de los mejores juegos a los que he jugado en mi vida, sino el mejor. No es perfecto pero poco le falta. He llorado por unos personajes de ficción que transmiten más que muchas personas reales.

    Mucha gente ha rechazado el juego porque la protagonista es lesbiana (a lo cual no le dan ninguna importancia en el propio juego, por cierto) y han sacado a relucir su homofobia y su intolerancia con el diferente.

    La historia está mucho más elaborada que en la primera parte, los personajes más desarrollados y el mundo en el que transcurre mucho más desarrollado.

    La jugabilidad ha mejorado muchísimo, puedes afrontar los combates de muchas formas diferentes, de forma directa, con sigilo, poniendo trampas, mezclando varios estilos, usando el entorno a tu favor, usando a los infectados para que ataquen a otros... Muchas más posibilidades que en la primera parte.

    Es lamentable ver tanta crítica por temas homófobos y porque también muchos han querido apropiarse de la obra y decidir ellos el destino de los protagonistas, pero no, está obra es de Naugthy Dog y ellos deciden como acaba.

    Es una historia de venganza, de dolor, de perdón, de arrepentimiento, de pérdida y de soledad. Ninguna muerte es especial, ningún personaje es especial, ninguno es bueno ni malo, simplemente son humanos con sus virtudes y defectos que hacen lo que hacen en función de sus circunstancias. Es genial.

    Gracias Naugthy Dog..Thank you Naugthy Dog.

Everyone who believes that “the game has a terrible plot and poor story” is the most devoted fans of the series who do not want the story to continue that way.

Everyone who believes that “the game has a terrible plot and poor story” is the most devoted fans of the series who do not want the story to continue that way. But I am absolutely convinced that in such an evil and terrible world everything should have happened exactly as happened in the story with Ellie, Joel and Abby.
    I would like to send special thanks to the developers of the gameplay, who only improved it. I got an absolute thrill and a huge range of emotions from the environment, locations, graphics, plot, characters, NPC behavior, flashbacks and of course from all kinds of revenge.
    There was a lack difficulty in the heavy mode, there were too many ingredients around) Again, the partners run among the enemies who do not notice them, which is funny)
    But these are just trifles, the game also touches, delights and beats to the very heart!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I loved it.
    It looks amazing, it feels amazing and the story is very good. I loved Joel but let me say this, he was a selfish and heavily flawed person. Did he deserve to die? Absolutely. Did I want him to die? No, but I understand that his actions and decisions lead him to this point and got himself killed. To me it didn't seem a cheap plot device. What's that? He would never do that and introduce himself to strangers? How tf do you know that? In a post apocalyptic world, where you've been chased by infected, you stumbled upon a living being who helped you and your brother escape, gave you shelter, and they clearly outnumber you so being hostile is not an option,you wouldn't want to be decent and help out? You guys are idiots. Joel started in the first game as cold and distant with Ellie being an optimistic, happy and warm person. By the end of the game, and beginning of the 2nd one they have changed. Ellie turned cold because of the things they went through and because she lost her meaning of life, and Joel grew to Ellie who he'd see as a daughter and would do anything to make happy. This is character development. They are changed by their actions. The Ellie and Abby part - you know what? Overall Abby is a better person that Ellie.

    Abby killed Joel because he killed her father. What did Ellie do? Kill all her friends on her quest to avenge Joel whilst putting all her own friends in danger and abandoning them. She had a peaceful life with Dina by the end, but she blew it because she wanted to go back to find and kill Abby, and so she rightfully was abandoned by Dina. But Ellie also changed as a person as did Abby.
    And that is what I loved. Ellie realised that the whole revenge theme would just endlessly go around in circles unless someone put an end to it and she did. She stopped the cycle of killings. You will say that this decision wasn't in her character and I will argue that it was. After she killed Mel and Owen something flipped in her mind. Ever since that incident she seemed unsure. She didn't pursue Abby when they finally found eachother. She started a new life with Dina but needed a push from Tommy to make her change her mind and find Abby again. Then when she finds her, she doesn't just kill her while she is strapped to that pole but instead cuts her loose only to be pushed again by flashbacks to challenge Abby once more until she realizes that this would only lead to more revenge. That is character development. She struggles and changes as a person. Do I feel bad for her at the end for losing everything? Yes. But she deserved it. What about Abby? I liked the idea of playing from her perspective even if we hated her for killing Joel. She had a good reason and I already explained that Joel wasn't a saint and he clearly had it coming. We see her develop just as Joel did in the first game. She goes from a vengeful and cold person with the reputation of one of the most fierce Scars killers, to a protective sibling figure to two fugitive children. She goes out of her way to help them knowing that she might get in trouble with her group and Issac.
    In Santa Barbara we see a changed optimistic, and by the end fed up with all the violence Abby. Even when she can barely stand up on her feet she still cares for and protects Lev. If this isn't character development then I don't know what is..

    This was their story not ours. We were merely spectators of their journeys that's why we didn't get to decide whether Abby dies or not. And I am grateful for that. I am subtracting one point for the discontinued feeling it gave me when we shift to the scenes from the farm after they parted ways with Abby and because the looting and stealth kills were a bit repetitive. Other than that it's a 9 from me.

    You gotta see the characters as they are. I get it that you loved the Joel and Ellie dynamic but just because your favourite character dies it doesn't mean that you have to run around stomping and crying like little b*itches because you didn't get the candy you wanted. Life sucks, and it doesn't always go our way. In life we get what we deserve and if a game wants to portray realistic scenarios then they have to do exactly that. Disappointment, loss, betrayal, sadness these are all bound to happen in a post apocalyptic world. Just because you don't like the decisions Druckmann took doesn't mean they're bad. Try to be objective instead of being as**ole crybabies.

    Yes the writers could simply follow the same route as the first game and create an unlimited number of straight forward revenge stories (in a similar way that games like Uncharted rehash their stories with each release) but they didn't and credit to them for taking a risk. I feel that the story will make a fantastic series now it has been picked up by HBO. We may have to passively watch rest of the story unfold as I wouldn't be rushing into making a third installment for a ungreatful audience. 10 out of 10 easily best game I've played on PS4. .

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really enjoyed The Last Of Us Part II. There are many heartbreaking and shocking moments in the game, but they are balanced by the many very intense, action moments. Overall I loved the game, the part with Ellie was increadable, with her going on this brutal path of revenge. If I could change the story I would only change two things, the part with Abby being this long, I wish we could get to play with Ellie even more and I hope we can get to play with Ellie more in part III.The second thing would be to not kill Joel this early in the game or give him a hero’s death, other from that I wouldn’t change anything else. The gameplay is just phenomenal, I don’t think I have ever played a game where the gameplay and all of the animations are that smooth, every fight encounter feels very realistic and intense. However, I think, the part with Abby wasn’t as good as the part with Ellie, but I understand why ND let us play as Abby, it’s to try to create empathy for Abby. Overall the game is amazing and I know some people didn’t like the ending, but the ending is a lot more than just an ending, it perfectly sets up perfectly for part III Expand

И вполне логично, что в процессе игры мы потеряем не мало хороших персонажей, и месть оставит нас у разбитого корыта. Что же касается трансгендера, то для меня это просто особенность персонажа, как травма детства или фобии, как и имуннитет у Элли.

    Incredible game. Heartbreaking, terrifying, beautiful, incredibly ugly, and very very sad.

    This game has chewed me up in ways that not many things have. I finished it three days ago and i can't stop thinking about it.

    Is it perfect? No. Nothing is. but what the Last of Us Part 2 is is a daring and challenging exploration of vengeance and its cost.

    Revenge and the endless violent circle of consequences are the driving forces of this game, and it’s what makes the story of The Last of Us Part 2 so interesting. I really enjoyed this game, and even though it’s not perfect and some of the choices leave you scratching your head at times, I think that in the end, it all pays off in an impactful way.

I really enjoyed this game, and even though it’s not perfect and some of the choices leave you scratching your head at times, I think that in the end, it all pays off in an impactful way. If I have to compare it to the first game, the gameplay in Part 2 is far superior then the first. Its fun, heart-pounding, and challenging throughout. Story-wise, the first game is a tighter narrative that is very focused on the relationship between Joel and Ellie and how even in the darkness of the world they live in, there is still light to be found. Part two is a natural transition because of the actions of Joel in the first game. Part 2 is about the pain of loss and how hatred consumes people; how two sides of an issue can find themselves to be both victims and offenders. How an eye for an eye begets more violence. It’s a tough and uncomfortable story, but that’s the point. Narratively, both of the Last of Us games are one larger story that makes sense as a whole. There are things that I think could have been done to tighten the story up and make it more compelling, but to me, what was done works, and it’s definitely a title I’m planning on playing again.

    The best game ever. Maybe it's not what we want, not the path we think the story will follow, but Naughty Dog created a masterpiece, running way from the cliche, telling us the story in a unique way. The gameplay is perfect, character creation and development always the best, this is the game the world's most need in a moment like this. Thanks for this piece of art!

    This game is an entirely unique Expierience. You feel the things that the characters feel. Things like disgust, rage, nausea, and sometimes joy. The story is the most sophisticated and symbolic I’ve ever seen. The gameplay is dense, strategic, and intense. The acting is some of the best I’ve ever seen. Just know going in that this isn’t a journey for the faint of heart or biased.

    I can understand why some people didn't like the story cause it didn't really do it for me either, I still really enjoyed it but it just didn't live up to it's predecessor. Also at times it felt a little bit preachy when it came to the topics of gay relationships and trans people. Those are the only reason i didn't give it a 10/10.

    As for the positives, the graphics are amazing, the

    As for the positives, the graphics are amazing, the acting is sublime, the level design was extremely interesting (especially at the end) and most importantly once I started playing I just couldn't stop cause I was truly hooked. Plus one of the biggest positives was Ellie's birthday level, probably one of my favorite scenes in a game ever.

    Don't listen to the people who haven't played the whole game. Definitely worth playing.

    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]
