    As someone that has played "The Last Of Us Remastered" when it came out in 2014 at the age of 13, I recently played the sequel at the age of 19. During that time the first game had a place in my mind during those 6 years. How can the sequel ever hold up to the original?
    it does, they went for a revenge plot for the story and that was known from the beginning. They chosen to fuel this

    it does, they went for a revenge plot for the story and that was known from the beginning. They chosen to fuel this vengeance powerfully. You feel the exact same as Ellie felt. This is a duel narrative story where every character is humanized and at first you fight it. But overtime it slowly grows on you.
    The story was like a roller-coaster and it had caught my attention just as the original did.
    I strongly recommend this game to anyone that owns a PS4.

    I can understand why people have such strong opinions on this game. (in my opinion) A lot of the story moments are justified and the characters we hate are humanized in such a way that you are able to understand why they made particular choices and where they come from. The pacing definitely has issues. Some of the scenes should have been placed before others (if that makes sense). TheI can understand why people have such strong opinions on this game.

The pacing definitely has issues. Some of the scenes should have been placed before others (if that makes sense). The visuals are outstanding. The environments are so meticulously detailed and the gameplay blows the 1st game's gameplay out of the park. Naughty dog was brave to try something new and i understand why people are decisive about it. But i respect naughty dog for taking tough decisions. This isn't the best naughty dog game, its not even close, but I think that this is a pretty good game in my eyes. There are a few plot holes and the pacing was all over the place but thats not the end of the world for me(not pun intended). I think that it should be understood that revenge isn't the story of this game, its the plot. Ill be checking out new game plus on a harder difficulty. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Its a damn shame the reception this game got from fans.
    After the simple, but well executed story of the 2013 play station last of us oriented around an middle-aged man losing his daughter after the outbreak of a global pandemic and reconnecting with his human side by befriending a girl of the same age 20 years later. changing from ruthless killing machine to ruthless killing machine who has a daughter figure.
    its a really simple, shallow story that would be near impossible to f*ck up due to its basic setup. but people lost their minds over this fairly average game with a memorable heartfelt story, and this along a side naughty dogs continuous climb of excellence making hit AAA title after hit AAA title people were expecting something they would never get.

    Last of us part 2 is a Good game. not a 'Sh*t' game and by no means a 'masterpiece'
    people expected something they would never get, the last of us again.
    The game is stunning, sounds like god, controls perfectly, is the single best animated game ever and is superbly acted. a lot of hard work was put into making the world. almost sweat shop conditions where people almost f*cking died due to naughtydog's crunch type game development. where people would be working up until 9pm. The game is worth playing alone for all of these reasons.

    But people aren't mad about this. They are mad about the story.
    So from an unbiased view, how is the story? pretty good. Better than most games you find in AAA titles such as Assassins creed or Gears of war or Call of duty or Days Gone. The only real issue is its slightly jarring structure and downright inconsistent pacing, that is being nice. but again most people aren't mad about that either. its the 'twists'and deaths and lack of character development.

    Before i go into spoilers let me just say i do recommend this game, and i recommend it blind and i recommend that you play the game with the key word being 'Empathy'. You need a lot of that and a fair bit of emotional intelligence with a lack of bias to truly appreciate this game.
    Okay, spoilers from this point on:

    I would discuss the whole plot but i've sent my general thoughts and would just like to go over major plot points that people are pissed over and do my best to explain that these aren't poor decisions but instead are actual features of the narrative. starting with Joels death. people have called it 'pathetic' and 'rushed'. now whilst i somewhat agree with it being rushed it ins't a cheap move to make a plot its a natural and fair conclusion to what is a pretty terrible person. He is killed by someone that has more than all the right to kill him. the daughter of the surgeon who would've saved the world. Abby.
    please remember the empathy idea i brought up. This story is about empathising with 'bad' people.

    Second thing people are p*seed about is Abby. playing as her is very aggravating at first but as you play more and more so long as you don't b*tch and wine about tit the whole time and take your time to pay attention and listen to her side of the story, despite its annoying structure of turning back the plot and playing it all over again, you can empathise with her more and more. Abby feels terrible guilt for the brutal murdering of Joel and starts a journey to protect and help a brother and sister. and does so because of the guilt and because Abby sees herself in Lev (the brother) as he also had his family and home torn away from him. Like Abby had from Joels selfish acts.
    so long as you take the time to appreciate her story you will find yourself interested and invested in what is essentially a re-telling of the last of us 1.

    finally people don't like Ellies lack of an arch. to which i say, what the f*ck? the whole point of Ellies journey is that she has had her purpose in life taken from her by Joel, and finds her only motivation she has left is to kill. But not being strong enough emotionally she becomes more and more sad and psychotic, towards the very end looking like a genuine insane person with blood all over her terribly damaged body - reflecting her mind.
    Ellie doesn't learn and has caused herself to lose everything she had. Not Abby.
    Its sad to watch and play but its only natural this happens to someone, especially someone who's only 18 bear in mind. so her arch is shallow and she doesn't better herself but only worsens herself.

    So to conclude, most of what people disliked about the game was just the point of it. Play this game again and really think whilst playing and you may just find a unique story with a few interesting new things to offer.

    Pros: The game continues with the dark and gritty themes of the original and continues the story, displaying very artfully the consequences of the violence in Part I. The witty banter between character's during gameplay is consistent with part I.

    The puzzles feel much more subtle and tricky and less bland compared to the puzzles of part I. Naughty Dog never fails with graphics and environments and TLOU2 is no exception. Combat environments feel very fluid, stealth feels even more viable than the original because of how mobile you're allowed to be. Overall the gameplay feels familiar but more polished. Cons: The story is told in a non linear fashion which I enjoyed, however some parts are noticeably slower than others. Most of the game kept me engaged either with story beats or new gameplay features or new enemies, but there were some times where I felt like I wanted to see more of a different part of the plot, and the part I was playing through didn't do quite enough to pull me in. The game isn't long enough. In all seriousness the game felt quite long especially after having just completed the first game, but even still as I approached the end I kept hoping I was far away from the credits.

    historia:la historia puede ser un poco difícil de entender, final fue bueno dejando una moraleja."la venganza deja un gran ciclo vicioso que nunca terminara a menos que tu decidas parar"

    jugabilidad: La jugabilidad de este juego es realmente buena, también hay diferentes maneras de jugar por ejemplo con sigilo, agresiva y la del escapista.

    bugs: errores en el juego encontré solo dos, te puedes quedar encerrado entre dos paredes y una estructura cambio de color

    personajes:Los personajes nuevos son muchos pero uno en especial que es jesse que a mi parecer fue muy desaprovechado también hubieron 3 infectados nuevos que fueron los tambaleantes, el chasqueador bombardero y come me gusta llamarlo a mi el super gordo buenos infectados que supieron muy bien donde ponerlos

    ia: la inteligencia artificial en en the last of us 2 es muy buena un ejemplo de ello es que cada npc tenían un nombre y cuando los matabas y otro npc lo encontraban lamentaban su muerte y si te encontraban te atacaban con mas violencia.

    mapa/localización:la localización del juego me gusto y no a la vez porque me pareció raro la ultima localización del juego en santa barbara

    realismo/gráficos: no hace falta que diga algo de los gráficos y las estética del juego se ven por si solo que son extraordinarias

    en conclusión el juego es bueno muchas personas dicen que es malo solo por la historia y se olvidan de los otros puntos que dije, entonces si tienen tiempo para jugarlo jueguenlo se los recomiendo.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Despite the leaks, I went into this game with an open mind. What I found is that The Last of Us Part 2 will be a game that I will remember because of its impact on me. I think about it all the time, I can't stop! Very few games stick with me after getting through the credits but this game has rewritten what a videogame and a story can be. Playing through this there were moments like Ellie's cover of 'Take on me' and the ending fight between Abby and Ellie that were some of the greatest moments I have ever experienced in a videogame. This game tells a story of revenge, Abby's revenge story shows the effects as she loses everyone close to her while you see Ellie directly go through it during the game. The game to me is about breaking this cycle and truly finding a purpose, that was the true goal that was achieved in the end. While I can't directly express my thoughts into words I just want to share my experience and while it wasn't perfect I can happily say it was a game I won't forget but rather a memory I hope will never fade.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. People who hate on this game and say that it is poorly written is clearly stuck with Hollywood endings. This is a post-apocalyptic world where it is dark and unsafe. I really really appreciate how this game is so close to reality especially how amazing the graphics and sounds are. It is true that the way ND told the story may not work for everybody but it worked for me. I was so emotionally attached to the characters, though there are some that need more spotlight like Jesse. But nonetheless, I was wrecked for days after playing it.

    Like what Neil explained Joel felt safe for years, he got used in saving people and bringing them in Jackson. After many years of feeling safe and comfort, of course, there will be moments where you'll let your guard down. Besides, though his intentions of saving Ellie is good but let's face it, what he did was wrong.... killing a bunch of people and loses the chance of having a cure. ND left us with Part 1 thinking if Joel's actions were justifiable. It felt so badass and right at the time so it didn't matter until we got a part 2. In this world, you will not die in a heroic/honorable way you imagined, you just die and sometimes it is because of the choices you made in the past.

    I understand that it would be very difficult to play as Abby after what just happened. I even killed her on purpose in the first few minutes but in order to really feel and fully experience what ND prepared for us, we just have to have an open mind. I honestly got tired playing as her after her Day 1 and really want to be back as Ellie but again, I allowed myself to experience the game and the emotions. Only at the theater scene I realized I was attached to Abby. I didn't want her to die but I also didn't want Ellie to die (but I let Ellie shoot Abby a few times just to get even haha). ND really did a bold move there, letting players think that you'd kill Ellie as Abby. It tore me apart, I was so confused. Every punch hurts. But that is also brilliant! Never have I played a game that made me feel that way, that played with my emotions like that.

    Ellie already have a great life with Dina and JJ until Tommy showed up. I was shocked to see that many people didn't get why Ellie chose to go after Abby. I mean given the trauma she has, the mock she received from Tommy and knowing that there is still this lingering feeling in your chest that you could do something to make it stop. That is enough reason to blindside me of what is in front of me and what I have to lose. And people ask why she didn't kill Abby? Did you guys look how shook she was after killing Nora, Owen and Mel? And look at Abby and Lev. Ellie knows she's not a bad person and killing Abby will lose the last humanity left in her. Joel wouldn't want this for her too.

    Sometimes, we think that what we are doing is right but you'll only realize that it is wrong once you are there at that very moment.

    I think that's what happened, that's why she didn't do it. It's just depressing to see that she had to lose everything to see that. But that's what makes this game so realistic. In reality, you make bad decisions and you face the consequences.

First of all, for anyone who hated this game deep down of their heart JUST because they read the leak or even worst because their favourite youtuber/streamer.. well i feel sorry because you cant make your own decision. Actually its 9/10 for me, I hated to play Abby at first especially how they cut Ellie story its just a bummer for me. Slowly i realized how the ND team want to make us seeing a different perspective, BUT still they failed to make me more care about Abby. in Abby scenario i played in rush and almost didnt enjoy it. especially how they make Abby stage are more linear than Elly. As a whole this game is not perfect game but i cant stop thinking about this game. i didnt readt about the leak, i got the leaked from my friends who pissboff about the LGBT and feminism, and i dont care. in the perfect world its not gonna happen anyway, also we already had Joel "hero moment" in the first game. ND put a big risk on this gam and Neil already told us it will divide us, and it worked! so what make thisbgame so good for me, i love how they potrayed Joel and Ellie relationship, they are not father and daughter they even cant say how much they love each other. Gameplay and graphic is one of the best in this generation. This is a great game but i cant recommend it to every person unlike the first one. Expand

    Before I can say anything I feel there is a real problem with how people are rating this with a game, as far as I can tell the main issue people have is with the story. Which is fine it’s not going to be everybody’s cup of tea, it did feel like it was a specific artistic vision rather than just going for a story more designed for a mainstream audience that everyone will like but will be blander. However the story is just one (admittedly big) part of the game, and to give it 0/10 because you didn’t like the story while ignoring all the other aspects (graphics, technical aspects, performances, soundtrack etc.) then you just look like a baby throwing their toys out the pram cause you didn’t get the story you specifically wanted. Maybe if you’re not emotionally mature enough to be able to assess something as a whole and just freak out cause you’re upset, maybe that lack of emotional maturity it why some of the story is lost on you. (By the way, I’m not saying if you didn’t like the story it is cause you aren’t emotionally immature)

    My thoughts on it:

    Story- I can see why people may not have liked it but I personally loved it. Just try not to go in with too many expectations.

    Gameplay- Is a great evolution from the first game, definitely improved a great deal but still isn’t anything too special. Just fairly basic stuff done really well with a few additional features to spice things up. If you enjoy the gameplay of ND games you’ll like this basically.

    Graphics/ Technical- Games looks amazing and I had no issues whatsoever with it. Ran smoothly, no crashes and no noticeable glitches or bugs (my personal experience)

    Performances- All the cast were great, some very powerful performance even if you didn’t like the story I don’t think you can say the cast didn’t do a great job.

    Soundtrack- There were a few stand out tracks and songs but for the most part it remained unnoticed in the background which is really what it is meant to do.

    There was also just so much attention to detail and small details throughout it made the experience so much better. If you did hate the story / game I would say maybe give it some time and get some distance then maybe try it again, especially if you were a fan of the original. You might be able to enjoy it for what it is upon reflection. I do genuinely believe in the long term this game will be looked on positively (like MGS2) but if you still don’t like it that cool, not everyone has to like everything, just try and judge it fairly and as a whole.

    Story: 9 / 10

    Review: I believed the story to be overall great. If you go into the game without knowing or hearing of the leaks, much of it would be considered to be unpredictable. It’s told in a way that really lets you understand how a character you seemingly at first despise, you can learn to understand and sympathize with and see how a story of revenger can ultimately unfold when you explore both perspectives of two different yet seemingly alike individuals. I enjoyed this games story for what it brought to the table and how it attempted to create a different story arc than what we may have originally expected. I do say a beloved character will be missed and although I hate they way they spit on this character for the sake of the narrative, I appreciate the sprinkled moments of joy found with this character that explore further some times after the events of the original game. Eventually towards the end it all comes full circle and leaves you with an empty somber feeling. This by no means is a bad thing.

    In a imperfect world like much of our own, we make decisions that breed consequences.

    **** happens and you find a reason to move on. Gameplay and User Interfaces: 9 / 10

    Review: The gameplay is a lot of fun and vastly improves Upon the first with adding verticality with the ability to jump. I love the variety of weapons introduced and the fact that you can upgrade them through these very neatly detailed work benches. The menus are clean and very detailed with lots of customization options in terms of the game difficulty, audio and accessibility settings for those with certain disabilities.

    This game takes all of its features and builds upon the originals to make vast bug improvements both appealing to the eyes and in terms of usability. Music: 9 / 10 Review: The tones and music is a great mix of the traditional Last of Us music and more modern ambient sounds and beats to build up tension and sink you further into the moment when things are going to hit the fan. Moments where you face humans are full of great audio build up as well as when you are facing infected.

    I felt hyped for the upcoming battles similar to in Days Gone which is great use of music to build up the suspense and tension. Personally loved it. Environments: 8 / 10 The environments in the game varied enough to breathe different air periodically and although you had so many different settings It did feel like primarily you were in the same main environment type but that may have been due to the weather Seattle mainly being a very wet environment. The set pieces for the levels are favorites of mine. You get everything I would Have hoped for and I truly enjoyed the more horror aspects if the game. They truly took it up a notch and laid these areas out perfectly. My overall score is a 9. I feel that they truly hit all the right notes in terms of environments, gameplay, customization options, graphics, music and most importantly the story. Some improvement can be made in terms of infected enemy types, would love to see more creative ways to kill some big ones as opposed to just guns blazing. I would also like there to be more in regards to evolution of the infected. It seemed to just get brushed over in the game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game tells us a story full of action, horror and adventure, in a way which catches the player.
    Naughty Dog made it this way with a special intention you must understand. The way you are confronted with Joels Killer while playing her is a really good way to give some controversials to think about and reflect. minus 2 points for killing Joel, and I think the third part in Santa Barbara could be a little more longer, equal to the Seattle Storys.

    The most mature game i've ever played. This is an art, so much emotions invested in storytelling, and i love all of it. Even so many negative reviews is just a mark of how much people was involved. This is a not just game that you can play to got some positive feelings, but a movie or something, that can give you different emotions, but in the end you'll be happy to take such ride.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just a little ending explanation this game is a 10/10 this is a review in in of itself The hatred that Ellie feels for Abby is an externalized reflection of the hatred Ellie harbors for herself.
    Why? Well Joel deeply hurt both Abby and Ellie in different ways and they both punished him for it.
    Ellie hates Abby for torturing Joel to death, especially because she didn't get a chance to restore her relationship with Joel (but also I mean, obviously Abby killed the man she came to see as her father). This is a mirror to the fact that in a way, Ellie also tortured Joel. she did it for years in a different way, and I'd say in a way that was more painful for Joel. And that was by disconnecting from him.
    She hates herself for torturing him like that and not restoring their relationship when there was still time. That's the real pain she has been trying to avoid facing during this entire revenge quest, she's like a drug addict using revenge to avoid dealing with those painful feelings of regret. This is the realization she has while she is drowning Abby when she has the flashback to the scene on the porch with Joel and chooses to spare Abby. She's not just forgiving Abby,
    she's really most importantly forgiving herself and finally coming to terms with what happened between her and Joel.
    I think her leaving his guitar to rest in the house and walking away is supposed to symbolically represent that she has forgiven Joel, made peace with what happened between them and is finally ready to move on and start a new life.
    I hated the end at first but after much deliberation I think it's actually really poetic. People saying the game is just about "revenge is bad" I think have really missed the point. And the end isn’t “stupid”, imo.

    While some will say the ending is disappointing, I have to disagree. I agreed at first, but after contemplation, the ending made total sense. This game requires a great deal of emotional maturity to properly understand, or else the core meaning is lost entirely. Everything about this game is beautiful and I cannot recommend it enough.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great sequel of a previous great and loved game, but not for everyone. I will start with the gameplay first.The gameplay is the same as in the previous game but with little new things(for example new skill trees or new upgrades for the weapons which can be seen).I really like that they added more exploring to the game because is making much longer and interesting. I appreciate that the weapons are not exactly the same one for the both characters. The listening mode is still weird but sometimes it can help you a lot. The graphics are one of the best ones I’ve ever seen. The sound is so good, it make you know when the battle start and when it ends, it can make you feel like you want to hear it more when you hear characters chatting, and even the gunshots hear awesome, and is also a important part when you try to play stealth because you can hear a weird sound when someone is seeing you.
    Now about the story: I must say that I almost cried when Joel died and I understand why the did that, but the reason I still don’t like his death is how they killed him.It could be more heroic, like saving Ellie from a gunshot or something like that.In the beginning I hated Abby (even after the end) but after some time I realised that she’s not a bad person as most of the people thinks. Her appearance is still making me fell weird but after some thinking I understood why she look so muscular(is because she lives in a camp which is like a military base and also she wanted to make sure that she is strong enough to kill Joel no matter what or how). Ellie in my opinion haven’t changed much from the previous game. The only difference from the previous game is that she can swim, make her own decisions much cleaver and better(at leat at the end) and other little stuffs. I still don’t understand why some people have problems with LGBT of this game, or the ‘transgender’ girl, I mean how can that change the game so much, if you want you can always skip the parts where you can see these things. The ending lacks a little but it is OK.I mean it wasn’t necessary to make Ellie lose her fingers.
    I encourage people to buy this game, but at an offer(just if you want).If you don’t have a problem with Joel’s death,LGBT,transgender,Abby arms I believe this will be one of your favourite games.

    The last of us part 2 is an astonishing achievement in video games with a captivating story, intense game-play, beautiful soundtrack and sound design and incredible graphics.
    First off Game-play
    The game-play is a whole lot better than the first games with exciting new mechanics which have a huge variety of ways to get through encounters which bolster replay ability. You can set traps, throw bombs, stun people, use a bow and arrow or a silenced pistol to take enemies down quietly and craft explosive arrows and incendiary shells.The controls are seamless and smooth which is really easy to pick up and play through the game including the vehicle control and the boats. The only drawback could be the fact that you have to keep scrounging around for materials, but its only purpose was to get you ready for the next encounter which could be with the infected or humans. Overall I would give the game-play a 9/10
    sound design and music
    This is an incredible aspect of the game because it adds to the atmosphere of the game during encounters with enemies. Gustavo Santonella did an impressive job with the soundtrack as well in which everybody should give a listen to. The sound design is incredible from when you fight infected and the music creeps in which adds to the immersion greatly. I would give this a 10/10
    Graphics
    Do you really want me to explain this?The amount of detail and colour which is put into this game is absolutely astounding with things you wouldn't even notice when you play through the game unless you dig deep into it and find them. The facial animations are realistic and expressive which shows that naughty dog put in a lot of effort once again. I would give this a 10/10
    The story
    Now this is a controversial one.The story is absolutely incredible and Naughty Dog makes some bold, unpredictable decisions to make sure it shocks people. Around two hours into the game Joel is killed by Abby who murders him with a golf club. For me, this was a powerful way to start a revenge story. For some people, this is a generic cliche which is overused. At the same time you could say the same for the first game, which was a trek across the united states in a post-apocalyptic land.So what was it that made it special?It was the character development between these Joel and Ellie and the emotive experience in which it was executed.In the first half of the game you hunt down Abby and become a ruthless killer who doesn't care about whatever she does or who she kills or puts in risk only to murder those who have an association with Abby just so she can track her down and kill her. She turns into this monster who kills a ton of people just so she can be satisfied with herself that she kills Abby. Naughty dog does an excellent job of putting yourself in the character's shoes and feeling every emotion which is put into this game. In the first half of the game you feel angry towards Abby and what she did to Joel and Naughty Dog pulls it off. In the second half of the game the clock resets and you play as Abby and now you don't want to play as Abby because you couldn't care less about her and her character arc because she killed Joel, but as you keep playing you understand who she is and her personality. Abby was a firefly but her father was killed by Joel because Joel wanted to save Ellie and killed him in the process.Naughty dog could have taken a more predictable approach to the story where Joel and Ellie set off on another adventure across the country and hunted down cults and bad guys, but they decided to take a different approach. Instead, your actions in the previous game had grave consequences which led to this game. I feel that this game honours Ellie and Joel's relationship as it shows the great lengths that Ellie would go to in order to avenge Joel.
    There is no real bad guy in this game but it has different perspectives.We learn more about the wolves from Abby's side and when we experience her side of the story and the world she lives in and we also see the Seraphites side of the story when we are with Abby looking for medicine in the hospital whilst we are with Lev who was part of the Seraphites.I deeply enjoyed this game for those reasons and I was able to connect with these characters and love them.During the end in the fight between Abby and Ellie, I wasn't rooting or cheering for any of these characters because I really liked these characters and I did'nt want death to befall them.The only issue I could really see about the game was the pacing issues in which I don’t think could have been done perfectly because it is hard to even out the days. Apart from this though i would give the story a 18.5/20.
    Overall score: Game-play-9
    Graphics-10
    Sound design-10
    Story-18.5
    overall-48.5/50
    97/100

Most players are used to the happy go lucky ending which spoils their perception because Naughty Dog wanted to portray reality of situations. That every action has a consequence. Joel saved Ellie but he took another's life. Ellie and Abby are much similar in terms of seeking revenge but Ellie did come out the 'better' person by forgiveness. Revenge is a toxic path to self destruction. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Controversial. This is qhat Neil Druckmann wanted to do, a controversial game. The game isn't perfect, but still my favourite game. I'll explain you why.

    The Last of Us is a series known to be something like a "interactive movie", this is why I am not going to review the gameplay itself, only the story (The gameplay was pretty decent though, basically the same as the first game).

    Like in every movie with CGI we talk about how good it looks, and my god, the game looks awesome. They use every bit of the Playstation 4. The music is a absolute 10/10 for me. The people who loved the music from the first game are gonna love this. While I am writing this review I am listening to the soundtrack, it is f*ing awesome.

    Now about the big thing: the story. There's a lot to say. What I hear from people who don't like the game is that it's not the fact that Joel dies - it's the way he dies. Well I see it like this: They went for realism (I mean in the story itself and not the gameplay) and so with the death's of character's. Like Jesse and the other guy who always says "pendejo" or something (forgot the name right now), they both died without any warning and no music building up. It was a total surprise, like for the charakters seeing this, in this case Ellie and Abby. They make no exceptions, not even for Joel. In my eyes this is something new and it's really good. And I mean it's not like that Joel got honored in the rest of the game (irony). The also hasn't a "up's and down's" story. It's mostly only downs. It's really sad. For Ellie and Abby. The idea from Naughty Dog showing the prespective from the protagonist and antagonist is awesome. It destroys the line from good and bad. Normally in movies and videogames there is a thing (forgot name) where you can see how to do the pacing. For example movies start slowly in the beginning, then something semi-big happens, then character developement, and then the big finally. Something similar exists for games. In the first game they did it very well but in this game it was complicated because they hace 2 characters to explain. It is 2 stories in one big story. This is why it was complicated to do the pacing right. And I agree, the pacing isn't perfect. Not even close. But I love the idea behind it and I'd love to see more games using this idea of showing both characters in such detail. But what I would have changed is that they replaced the Abby-story to the end. So that you play the exact same game twice but with different characters. That means you can replay Ellie with New game+ without the passages with Abby somewhere in the middle. The Idea that was used in Resident Evil 2 remake would also fit, where you can choose who you whant to play, but have to play both anyway to understand the story in the end. But this is only my idea. Many people don't like the ending of the game. I totally understand why. Ellie left her family with Dina and her son to kill Abby and in the end she doesn't do it. But think about it. First, Ellie wanted to do it in first place. But during the fight she changed her mind. Why? Because she realises that everyone has a backstory and Abby got already revenge. She got tortured for months there. I think this was even worse for her than just simply die. I always hear: "But she killed Joel". Yes, she did. But I think we all forgot that Ellie killed almost all of her friends, even her ex-boyfriend and her pregnant friend. The ending was really sad when Dina left Ellie. But I think she just left because Dina thought that Ellie was dead and didn't want to raise a child alone in the apocalypse and went back to Jackson.

    I am really excited for the Multoplayer mode and would welcome a DLC or even a part 3. I loved the contuitation of the lie from Joel from the first part. The flackbacks were great. Graphics and animation were awesome. Idea was great. Music was fitting perfectly. These are the reason why it is my favourite game and a 10/10 so far.

    I know I will get a lot of hate but I do not care at all. You can try to change my mind, but please be decent. And don't forget, this is a subjective review and not really objective. So don't say: This game is good/bad. Say: In my opinion the game is good/bad.

    Have a nice day and enjoy your games!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Realmente muitos não estavam preparados para The Last of Us part2 ! O Jogo não fala apenas de vingança, ele mostra um cenário extremamente real e sem protagonismo, onde não mais o Joel ou a Ellie são os principais, com uma história cheia de reviravoltas, jogabilidade incrível, trilha sonora pergeita, gráficos alucinantes , você fica preso em cada detalhe nas quase 30h de game, um jogo alem do seu tempo, para jogadores de mente aberta e não kids haters! Joguei o primeiro no play 3 no lançamento, e foi o jogo da minha vida, o part2 só afirmou isso, os dois sem dúvidas são os melhores jogos que ja joguei, e olha que tenho 25anos de vídeo game! Resumindo tudo: Compre,e jogue sem levar em conta a opinião de ninguém, explore, se coloque na pele dos personagens, jogie sem ter um personagem favorito, leve em conta a realidade de cada um, deixe de lado sua opinião sexual ( o que isso não interfere em nada no game) o jogo esta sensacional e fechou com chave de ouro essa geração!

    One of the best games ever made in the history of gaming. The storyline couldn't have been carried forward given the ending of the previous game. Though Naughty Dog took a big risk with the storyline but it was worth it.

    This game is understandably controversial and divisive, but personally i really enjoyed it. i think the game tells an excellent story about cycles of violence, revenge and in the end forgiveness. This game made med question my own personal bias, and my own belief system as well as being completely immersed and engrossed in this beautiful and horrific world Naughty Dog has created.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's has an equally impactful story as the first. It might not be something that everybody hopes for but I think it has done what it has set out to do. It created an emotional story that emphasized seeing things from different perspectives, giving more dimensions to the characters. I have seen sequels that played it safe by forcing out unnatural or predictable plots just to expand the franchise, but Naughty Dog chose a path that not many dares to venture, a convincing and natural development of a story even though it's a risky one. Arguably there are many potential ideas for a sequel, but I doubt most of them will leave such an impression like the current sequel did. Still love the original main characters, it hurts to see one of them go, but I think it's well thought out and the ending didn't disappoint me personally. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I wouldn't normally review a game online because who in the hell cares, but hearing about death threats directed at Laura Bailey and seeing people give this 0/10 has prompted me to make a Metacritic account and even the scales a little bit. This game clearly and unequivocally sets a new benchmark for videogames in terms of story telling (yes, even more so than the first game), characterisation and voice acting. The environments are so lush, haunting and fully-realised that even the details have details (the aquarium and theatre particularly astounded me). Although the gameplay is not quite as perfect as it seems within the first half, it's certainly tight, fun, varied and nuanced. A clear 9/10, probably a 9.5 if I could.

    As for the controversy about the plot, the developers are clearly aware of the love people have for the original characters and they do not take Joel's death lightly. In fact, they are using the affection that we have built up by playing the first game to create an incredibly dramatic and epic story that examines violence and the effects it has on people. The characters are able to act so callously only by dehumanising each other, which we become party to. The game initially paints Abby as cruel and evil and we happily murder dozens of her friends after she brutally murders our beloved Joel. But then we see her side, the pain Joel indirectly inflicted on her and the terrible fact that he had the power to save humanity and chose Ellie instead. We understand Joel's actions and the impossible choice he made, but we start to see Abby's point of view and her humanity as well. We see how the WLF are just traumatised ex-soldiers surviving, telling themselves that the "Scars" are sub-human to justify their own violence too. Then later we see Abby confronted with the humanity present in this group also, through her relationship with Lev and Yara. There are of course true psychos in all the human groups, especially amongst the Rattlers it would seem, but Abby has to come to terms with the fact that she has slaughtered dozens of ordinary people who were just trying to survive like her.

    We humans clearly have a fascination with violence (I can't deny I had a lot of fun blowing people to kingdom come whilst playing this game) but in truth, we really don't have much of a stomach for the reality of it. As with any war, we're sold violence by being told that the nasty foreign man on the other end of the gun is worth less than us. When we're faced with the enemy's humanity, we see ourselves and then violence doesn't come half as easily. Some choose to acknowledge this and bear the horror instead of the cognitive dissonance, some continue to lie to themselves to feel ok, but we all respond in some way. The incredibly detailed and nuanced facial animations in this game, and the fact that you literally embody both sides of the fight, conveys the emotions brought about by the inner conflict that violence creates more powerfully than any movie with the same subject matter that I can think of. It's truly next level stuff.

    So to those who are giving this game 0 out of 10, grow up and learn to appreciate true craft. If you want the first game, play the first game. If you want a boring rehash, play Call of Duty 58. If you're upset that Ellie's in love with a woman and there's an Asian trans character, snap out of it and realise that only seems strange to you because 99.9% of movies, TV shows and games have featured straight white people exclusively since time immemorial. The lack of self-awareness of people who think these elements are shoe horned in to be "woke" staggers me. And hey, there's still plenty of people in the game just like you to make you feel all special again!

    Finally, to the people sending death threats to the voice actor (and even the face and body double!) of Abby, words cannot express how much of a **** you really are. To those lowlifes I somewhat ironically say "May your survival be short and your death be protracted." (Sorry, just doing a little bit of dehumanising of my own to justify my violent words there).

    Anyway, it was an honour to play this game, I suggest you do too.

To me joel is the best game character ever. First last of us was greatest game ever made for me. If the story was better and joel would be alive. This game should get 10/10. I still hope naughty dog will make part 3 someday. Expand

    Самое глубокое раскрытие темы мести, и к чему она может привести. Наитоповая графика на данный момент. И очень увлекательный геймплей. Безусловно игра застолблила себе место в истории.

    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]
