    loved it. the world is brutal and ruled by sociopaths and those desperate to survive. This is the only way it could have ended without doing a disservice to the mythology. It's a technical masterpiece that begs people to look outside their comfort zone and outside their perspective, an increasingly challenging request these days. Bravo Naughty Dog Team

El juego es excelente en casi todos los aspectos Tiene muy buenos escenarios y diseño de nivel la jugabilidad es genial pero tiene varios puntos negativos en el apartado de la historia por ejemplo la muerte de Joel pienso que debió ser más tarde en el juego y el final es un final triste y vacío que te deja un agrio sabor de boca pero que se puede comprender como el ciclo de la venganza hace que pierdas todo lo que amas y valores ellie por culpa de la venganza perdio a su familia y abby perdió a sus amigos y todos sus seres queridos.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The mechanics of the game are very good as in the first, the inclusion of a jump button, in my opinion, is very useful, and the graphics are very good, they are the most polished in this instalment.
    The story, in my opinion, is not excellent, but it is good, it serves to guide us to what Naughty Dog wants to tell us, well-argued and structured, although what happens in the end with Abby makes the path we forge in the game with Ellie be A waste, but perhaps it serves because Ellie sees that this is not the way to go to find what she wants, Joel's forgiveness; On the other hand, in Abby's part, inclusion is the least important, it serves the same argument, for better or for worse it works, the story at the beginning is a story of revenge on the part of Abby, after Abby's redemption and the revenge of Ellie, and in the end, it's Ellie's redemption and something else for Abby.
    It is not at all like TLoU first part because here we no longer protect something, we do not look for hope, all that was left behind here we lost Joel, the one who in the first game was rude, the one for good or evil except Ellie from dying and He gave him a life to live, and Ellie in TLoU Part II realizes all that, wants it and wants everything that happened to be in the past, but with Joel's death, she realizes that she loved him so much that she didn't no matter what he did, he would go to the end of the world for him, and so part two is not the same as the first, because he develops more the character of an Ellie going through adolescence, having a different life than he had, to many they don't like the story and it's fine, but if you haven't played it, I invite you to do it, the criticisms are made by people who have the opportunity to do it, although some have played it, I bet there are many who haven't played or finished it to play and they criticize, that's the good thing about free will you can do what you want, s only that will you be willing?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game taught me, and it should have taught many that life is important to everyone, not only our lives are important, but also the lives of other people are important. Whether they are good or bad, it does not matter, it also happens in the game that the side of Abby, that side of Ellie have the reverse side of the coin. The first part of the game told us about communication, and the second about gray morality, about life's difficulties, but there is no Joel, but Ellie herself must go through these difficulties. And that cruelty in the game shows all the anger and thirst for revenge of this game. And what the Naughty Dog studio did deserves respect, even if there are cons in the game, but a titanic work is felt. Let's thank the studio for such work. Expand

This is a great game, this game leaves you with exactly the hoplessness Naughty Dog wants you to have in the post apocalyptic world that TLOU2 is set in. The graphics are some of the best I've seen, combat is fresh with new things like silenced weapons and crossbows along with new infected types to match. The story at time is lacking but on the same breath wins your heart over with the Elie & Dina relationship. The game lives up well to its predecessor. Have played once and am already looking forward to a survivor and grounded game. Expand

    Ok, so Naughty Dog lied to us in the marketing of this game, which I guess is one of the reasons so many people hate this game. This has nothing to do with divert expectations, it's just plain lying and whoever made that decision should be fired. It made people think it was one thing when in fact it is something completely different and so much more than was expected.

    Having said that,

This has nothing to do with divert expectations, it's just plain lying and whoever made that decision should be fired. It made people think it was one thing when in fact it is something completely different and so much more than was expected.

    Having said that, and after finishing the game in one weekend, I can only say that this is an absolute masterpiece. Not only technically but also in regards of the storytelling.

    What this game does to the player is more than many people can handle and it is reflected in the amount of negative reviews here. TLOU Part 2 does not simply let you play emotions, it makes your feel ALL of them. I get it, this is not easy digestible entertainment that makes you feel good. But it all makes sense and I feel it all is very relatable as the story fits perfectly in the setting of the game.

    It is not a pleasant experience and it's not supposed to be, but in the end it all worth it. I loved the story and all the main characters in it, no matter if they are like-able or not.

    A game is, just like any other work of art, a contemporary document and snapshot of the times it was created in. And we are living in very complex, divided and brutal times and the game does pick up some contemporary issues. But none of it is forced and even results in some of the most amazing gameplay this game has to offer.

    Like most of you I have played a lot of amazing and great games, but I have never played anything like Part 2. I loved the first one and I love this one even more.

    This is, if it is not surpassed by Cyberpunk 2077, definitely the GOTY, and for me personally, it is probably even the SINGLE BEST GAME of this generation.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don’t understand why all these people hate this game so much. I did not touch the info field for this game, because I was afraid of spoilers and information drains.
    First, briefly: The game has its drawbacks in all directions, but the pros cover all the cons.

    Most importantly, do not listen to anyone, make your decision, as this game is played and looks completely different. Perfect different emotions.

    Before I sat down to play, I made myself set to just play and enjoy the gameplay and history, since we need games to show us the story and give us tools to make us feel like the main character.

    And this game coped with these tasks for the whole 100. I cried when Joel was killed, my heart was breaking over all the experiences of Ellie, but maybe Abby was shown very crumpled, but still you get used to it. The final caused me such a storm of emotions that I then departed for 3 hours from everything that they tried to convey to us. Yes, this is done directly on the forehead, but it works.

    But if you don’t take the place of the main characters, if you rested your horn (oh my God they killed Joel my favorite character and blah blah blah) and stop at least somehow thinking empathize then you can immediately delete the game this is not for you.

    Ah, if everything continues like this, then soon we will live in carbon copy games, where there will be nothing, no innovations, no stories that break the soul, nothing. only MOBA, royal battles, and lootboxes. And it will be the most disgusting world.

    I can't understand the hatred and bad criticism of the game.

    The game is a masterpiece. You can put yourself in the different characters very well. Many criticize that some characters from the first part no longer act as usual, PEOPLE it has been almost 5 years between part 1 and part 2. Of course, characters can change during this period, I mean Elli and Co are not Peter Pan who does

Of course, characters can change during this period, I mean Elli and Co are not Peter Pan who does not want to grow up.
    A few flashbacks logically convey these developments to the player.

    There is no need to say anything about the graphics and sound, as in the first part it was great.

    The story also has a nice length where there are some quiet passages from time to time, but I used these sections to look at the surroundings.

    The story telling is also very successful, you can put yourself in the characters and feel the same as what the game wants to say: HATE & REVENGE!
    In between and at the end you don't really know who the good and who are the bad, which I think is awesome because everyone should decide for themselves. Since you play both parties and you can get to know each other well, this is usually difficult to assess.

    In my opinion, the few who rate the game without having played it through are just followers who follow the criticism hype. One should not compare this part directly with the first part, because it is simply a different story. If I still had to compare the two parts, I would say that both are equally good in their own way.

    It was a nice journey into the unknown, thank you Naughty Dog.
    I hope so much that a third part will appear, since Naughty Dog as well as in the first and in the second part did everything right.

    I have only two negative points of criticism:
    1. No multiplayer
    2. I find the list of trophies a little too easy. Unfortunately there is no trophy that requires you to play through the game on survivor difficult, I think that's a shame.

    But otherwise my Game of the year !!!

I felt like the game was trying to force something on me and I was not happy. As I continued playing the gameplay kept me interested. The story started to build and I became captivated. And then right in the middle of the game it all changed. I was forced, again, to do something I did not want just so I can care about them. At this point I know what the story wanted me to feel; “take a step in someone else shoes”. To me, that did not matter. The sound work in this game was incredible and with the talented artist at Naughty Dog you can feel like you are there in the once populated, now abandoned, stores and houses in Seattle. You really feel like it’s storming outside your own home while playing. Even though I did not like playing the “second half” of the game I could not ignore the beautiful and creepy atmosphere round every corner. As I continued on playing, the game finally comes full circle to an event of crossing paths (I’m really trying not to spoil anything here). Let’s just say, this was even harder for me to play, so much so, that I kept allowing myself to die for satisfaction. If the game would have ended there I would have been even more pissed. My anger for revenge while playing the game grew more. Going through this story was rich with a lot of highs and lows, but differently more lows, however, nothing prepared me for what happened next. Naughty Dog as proved to me that they are The best at telling stories. I came into the game with a story of my own and wanted justice. I wanted to tell Naughty Dog how to tell this story. It wasn’t until the end of this game it ALL MADE SENSE. The moments in this game that I hated became understandable. I felt so sorry at the end. I use to beg for one thing to happened but when faced with it I put the controller down. I felt guilty and by the end I just saying “please don’t do this”. This story set heavy on me at the end. Feeling all kinds of emotion. I’ve never felt that way playing a game before. This is not a game you can just watch someone play to understand it. YOU HAVE TO EXPERIENCE IT YOURSELF. This game will make you think about senseless deaths in video games and say, “who was that person? What’s their story”. To many people, you may not ever want to ask that question in a game. And 99.99% of games will never ask you too and that’s great. That’s what makes this game special because it does. And is revenge truly worth it. I’m in awe of this game and know that this game will age like fine wine. I was there to buy The Last of Us part One when it first came out. It had somewhat of a small following that grew over time. I have no doubt that the some of the people who hated the plot of this game will eventually try it; whether that be 3 years from now or 7 years. It’s always the consumer choice to buy what they want to play and I’m so glad I gave this game a chance even though the leaks of this game made me not want to. This game is a 10/10. Expand

    "Revenge is a fools game"
    TLOU 2 is one of the most interesting games I have played. Graphics are obviously awesome. Gameplay is alright (it could be a bit more intuitive like uncharted but its not a big deal).
    The reason for the high ranking is the story. I like it. Its about the relativity of revenge. Everything someone does out of hate backfires -> thats the morale of the **** story.

    I catch myself thinking about it a lot. But the most astonishing thing about this game is: It teaches you about human behaviour. The game achieves this effect not only through its story but also through the impact it had on gamers. Never was a well-made game praised by the critics and doomed by the the users at the same time. Surprisingly the most reviews were given 48 hours after release, which is funny because the game is 25 - 30 hours long.

    However, The Last Of Us II was an experience I surely wont forget.

No spoilers, but with all the people giving it hate I just want to share some love for it.

    Ok, so I’ll be honest... I think this is the best game I’ve ever played. A true masterpiece. It made me feel sadness, grief, anger, joy, and made me laugh and cry more times than I can count. It made me love and hate characters, and even the characters I hate I can still empathize with and understand. This game isn’t for everyone, I get that, but art shouldn’t be for everyone, it shouldn’t only make the safe choice, but challenge you to look at things differently, and this does that. I’ll admit, there were times I got angry at that fact, but I’m glad they did what they did, because it forced me to actually take a long hard look at many different things. Because at the end of the day, this is a story about hate, and what it can do to you, it shouldn’t be easy. There were many times I had to put my controller down and pace around my house, make a cup of tea and try to calm down, because goddamn did this game break me, which I’m honestly grateful for. There’s something so cathartic about allowing yourself to be broken, letting yourself feel all the raw emotions and this game did that to me. So thank you Naughty Dog, you made a truly beautiful game that will stick with my for the rest of my life.

    The game is extremely well made. Graphics are beautiful, acting is awesome and builds up perfectly upon the themes of the first game. I get it, a lot of people are not liking the story. Personally, I found it a great achievement in storytelling, but I get it may not cater to everyone.

    I truly believe that if you like survival games and really go into this game with an open mind you will enjoy it (especially if you happened to remain spoiler free)

    *Also just a reminder, a lot (if not all) of the ratings that are 0 and 1 were posted within the first 6 hours of the game being out and are just people that review bombed the game and had haven't actually played it first, or had just seen the leaks and made assumptions without playing it first.
    (A lot of them also say the game has a polical agenda and if you like it you are just a dumb sjw *in other words it's people that are homophobic or against feminism*) so baisically the real user rating is probably around 7/10 or 7.5/10*

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Good afternoon everyone!

    First of all, I would like to say it has been my favourite video game until today. I have finished it this morning. Graphics are incredibly developed to show all the gore acts and landscapes, getting little details inside a semiopened world, perfect for this type of video game where I didn't want a huge map but, at least, a little bigger than the ones used in the last of us 1.

    The different messages used by the director are incredibly polemic and underlined by our today's society unacceptability . We are allways annoyed by any little thing again our point of view and I think this perfect.

    The couple of lesbians, the development of different revenges, friendships, love, lies, growing as human beings, everything showed from a very realistic perspective... One person is not always good but also, he or she is not always bad. That hue of black and white is fantastic, achieved incredible well here.

    Moreover, this video game breaks with the typical formula of having only one group of heros, creating the perspective of the main enemy and I love it. I love it very very very much. Because of that, my favourite character is Abby and not Ellie or other one.

    The story was the last of us and it wasn't Ellie and her daddy.

    I felt really bad the first time I played with Ellie and I saw the death of Joel but, in the end, I understand he was an awful murderer and he deserved to die as he died because of his past actions.

    As I previously said, there aren't a good or bad side and that is incredible.

    You can enter inside a lot of stories, knowing the development of different characters until their deaths. And yeah, it is crazy, everyone dead, but we are in an appocalyptic world and it is almost impossible to live for a long time.

    After the end scene, we will not know if Ellie will live another day or if Abby and Lev will find the fireflights or another violent group. However, that creativity to surprise me and enter inside the feelings of every single character, entering inside the shoes of everyone is brutal for me.

    The playability is increbidly better that it's antecestor. Crawling, with more types of enemys, different types of scenarios adequate to the fight, more difficulty, more objects and weapons, etc.

    Sincerely, I don't understand the amount of bad critics and hatter received by this video game. Of course, this is not the game and the plot that someone will imagine. But that is the point and the beauty of this beast.

    I played the last of us 1 one week before the second one. Because of that, I don't have any type of nostalgya and with that in mind, I mark this video game with a 10 because the first one was a 10 for me and this one is better than the first game without doubt. And why? Because this plot not only touches the story of Joel and Ellie, but that story and other ones like the one of Lev, Abby, the goddes (who I believe she is the mother of Ellie and because of her inmunity she was proclaimed as a god for that community, she is white-skinned and the same colour of hair), wolves mates, lev's family, Isaac, jacksons, etc.

    I want to congratulate nauthydogs for this title and thank them the 35 hours of gameplay in the tough difficulty. I really enjoyed this game and wow, we have to be more humans and this is not a game for ever type of public. Very bloody violent, an adult plot, different from the other ones, without superheros, and with a lot of incredible details and scenes to make you feel the feelings of the characters behind the screen.

    Brutal and Bravo!

    This is a real videogame with all the letters and I will wait for more like this one.

    Thank you naughty dogs, for your late opportunity. I didn't play this videogame and the first one until this month but it was completely worth time.

    TLoU2 is a phenomenal game that has set new heights for story, graphics, gameplay, and much much more. It was extremely immersive. The artful character development was felt through my playthrough in a way that I have never experienced before in my 15+ years of playing video games. Including TLoU Part 1. The development of the story is completely valid in my opinion, especially given the circumstances and setting. And honestly how privileged do you have to be to get angry or upset just because the author didn't write the story the way you wanted?

    If you are like me who simply want to enjoy a great story and gameplay, please ignore these ignorant and close-minded bigots. Just sit back and enjoy the ride. Solid 10/10. Well done, Naughty Dog!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is not an arbitrary 10 whatsoever. Be a bigot, say you hate Abby and all that means nothing to me. I have been writing professionally for 15 years. I was a combat journalist in the United States Navy and I have seen the dark side of life. I understand people were attached to Joel and placed his FICTIONAL character on a pedestal but that goes to show how many of you miss the entire point of the world of Last of Us. There are no good guys and bad guys. Their are just people and worse people doing all they can to survive. This is a world where a clicker can jump you in 2 seconds flat an end your life. You DO NOT DESERVE a heroes death, because there are no heroes. Ellie and Abby are a dichotomy. An exploration of each other by playing as the OTHER. Ellie was safe for 4 years. She had love, friends and a completely safe haven to live in where she only needed to kill clickers and the occasional hunter. Thats why Joel's death broke her and made her go off the deep end. On the flip side Abby's life was always death at every corner. Her father shot in his face for trying to save the world and then for FOUR YEARS she was part of the WLF as THE TOP SCAR KILLER as they call her. She had become desensitized to her own loss of morality. Notice how Ellie always had a recurring dream of Joel's death and Abby of her fathers death. They both were haunted by death because their minds were dead set on revenge. They had lost the ability to empathize in this world. They could not see the others perspective which is why we PLAYED AS BOTH PERSPECTIVES. To show you that both of these people love, feel, struggle, hate, lose, win, cry, laugh. But they will also do whatever it takes to survive and protect what is theirs because in this world that is all they have. There are no bad guys or good guys in this world. Only those people and things you can carry with you because everything else you take is a risk. If you watch the Joel death scene you realize through FANTASTIC ANIMATION his facial expression when he realizes the girl he did not perceive as a threat Abby ( WHO IS THE SAME AGE AS ELLIE) was the one he actually should have been worried about. But you see on his face in that moment the regret. He got comfortable. He allowed himself to let his guard down living in Jackson and it cost him his life. But then at the end of the game they have the scene with Joel and Ellie where he tells her he is at peace with his decisions and would DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN because in the end he got his girl. That is a metaphor for his death as well. He would make all the same mistakes again as long as he had his baby girl. That writing. This was the SADDEST game I have ever played. I legit teared up at the end. I will not talk about technical prowess because that aspect is not debatable. Naughty Dog has by far the most polished world building, gameplay and animation in the game. I just wanted to lay out the story for people. If you have not played this game please do not be bias and go in with pre conceived notions. Give this game its just due........It is a MASTERCLASS. Expand

    As a die hard fan of this series it confuses me the hate for this game. There are people on both sides either loving or hating the game for it story which is quite controversial. For me it’s my favourite game right after the first and an amazing buy that I think anyone needs to at least give it a shot first. I’ll get back to this later but first. The game at its core is amazing. They have a truly polished game with not a single bug in my play through. You’ll get about 35-40 hours on this depending on your play style. For me I like to look through everything and take my time so it was towards 40 hours. The mechanics that they have added don’t take away from what the first game had, but instead add extra layers of how to approach combat. And the combat in this game is brutal. It’s not for the faint hearted because this will show everything. Using a shotgun or sniper will take limbs off. Melee combat flows incredible well with the dodge they’ve implemented and makes melee combat something to look forward to rather than a last resort. Level design has taken a step up and the levels are larger and have much to explore adding some extra playtime and replay ability on. This game takes what the first had and improves on most aspects. Including the graphics. The first game was the most stunning game on ps3 as it was towards the end of its time and with this I have to say it’s one of the most stunning for ps4. Every aspect of this game is crystal clear and made to a standard you can’t fault

    Now the story. The story is something that’s hard to pin. You have the first game which had such a carefully crafted story focused on Joel and Ellie and it was made to convey a certain message about the building of their relationship. This game is about revenge and hate and hurting. These themes are very different and normally turn out to be a bad ending or some uncomfortable moments in the story. I loved this story. It had me in tears by the end and and although is wasn’t a “happy ending” it’s exactly the way it should’ve ended. The last of us 1 had a unsettling ending and this game stays true to that. And I feel because of this people have decided to bomb the game since it doesn’t end the way they wanted it to and leaves a lasting impact on you. This game has some flaws like the mid game can seem to make the game slow down a bit and I started to have some problems but most of those ironed out by completing the game and understanding the rest of the story as a whole.
    I give this game an honest 9.5/10. It’s an fantastic beautifully crafted game that everyone should play and try before forming a judgment or taking anyone else’s. Including mine. Play it and decide for yourself.

    I like it, it's a greate game, with it's faliures (there's not a perfect game). Maybe it has its holes in the plot, like every game, even books I know until now. I believe this is not enough to say they're not marvelous (games and books).

If you can make a person who don't like videogames want to play it again (me too), and searche for more, you maked a gorgeus game. Expand

    I don't think any game will make you feel so many emotions. I really enjoyed it, the gameplay was alot of fun. Play it for yourself then make a judgement.

    Jogo incrível e único... aos que estão reclamando e porq quer um jogo de fantasia e no final serão felizes para sempre. O jogo é impactante e brutal aonde as pessoas são capazes de algo muito maior q os próprios infectados... não vejo tão cedo um jogo tão impactante como esse ser lançado novamente. Único!

    This game is a very incredible work of art. Is the story and content easy to digest. 100% no. This is a hard story that all stories of this type are. Does that somehow make it a bad game? Not in the least. I find it very hard to think of any game, ever, that made me feel the way I felt playing my way through this game.

    Невероятная история, эмоциональная мясорубка. Разработчики не побоялись рассказать взрослую историю со взрослыми персонажами, видимо, настали времена, когда игры выросли, а игроки нет(
    Великолепный визуал, лучший на консоли 2013 года, напомню. Великолепно играется и звучит. Не отпустила ни на секунду.
    Великолепной игре - великолепная оценка.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ok so...where do i even start? I was 12 years old when I first saw the game being played on YouTube and I loved it. The story, the characters, although being something that was already seen, surprised me and I fell in love with them. The effort made by Naughty dog in developing their own story was clear, and I enjoyed it like watching a tv series. I then decided to play the first game with my own hands, and it just felt amazing. After waiting 6 years, the sequel came out. What to say, it’s not just the impressive graphics and the better gameplay, but the realism of the story who caught me. At first, I didn’t get why they wanted us to play as Abby too, but then I realized: there are no bad nor good people in a post apocalyptic world...just survivors who have different ideas on how to survive. Of course, some of them might have, how do I put it, questionable methods, but the final objective is always the same: surviving. A lot of people were triggered by Joel’s death; I was too. But you can’t just review a game basing your vote on a big, but still small, part of the story. About the presence of SJW contents, I was actually impressed: of course it wasn’t necessary, but why are there so many people that are against this? Can’t you just evolve from your primitive way of thinking like you lived in 1900? Anyway...beautiful story, good study of the way of thinking of the characters and better gameplay than the first one, although it isn’t so innovating. Expand

    One of my favourite games this generation. Wasn't aware of the leaks going in and went in with an open mind. Would agree there are some pacing issues but didn't distract from the emotional story for me. Highly recommended.

    Great game with amazing praphics, cimematics and story. You will be stormed with emotions. Buy and play.
    Игра крутая, картинка, графика, анимации и история на высоте! Начало игры немного проседает по истории, но в конце просто жесть. Эмоции штормят от одной к другой, сидишь в тотальном шоке от игры и от Нойти Догов.

    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]
