    Extremelly bold, emotionally exhausting, impactful, exciting, and painful. It became a game I didnt want to play but became a game i needed to play. It delves deep into dark themes of humanity and revenge, something I've never seen any video game do. Gameplay is addicting and music is immaculate.

    Bottom line is that this is one of the most amazing gaming experiences that I've ever had. The Proudboys and other incel groups had a coordinated review bombing campaign. This is the second wave of gamer-gate and it is disgusting to see. Maybe you won't like it, maybe you will. I loved it.

    The Last of Us Part 2 is a generation-defining masterpiece.

    It is a technical marvel, full of fluid animation, richly detailed worlds and the most fluid gameplay I’ve ever experienced. Combat scenarios are intense, open-ended and dynamic; enemies have a great variety and require various skillful tactics to defeat. Player freedom, from the settings to gameplay approach, is high. The soundtrack is top-notch, and music is masterfully deployed to match the mood of every scene. Excellent visuals, gameplay, sound and world design are only the start. There’s also some amazing blockbuster-level action set pieces and top-notch production values.

    What really matters, why I game, is for the experience. After lots of gaming, I admit I stopped caring about them for a while. Games just started to feel too familiar. This rekindled that fire a thousand times over, by making me feel every single emotion under the sun. Anger, horror, shock, loss, fear, joy, giddiness, disbelief, awe, sadness, excitement, every single thing. Over the 3 or so days I spent with this game, doing little else outside of sleeping and eating, I kept marveling at these emotions it was eliciting, the expansive and twisted and difficult storyline, the amazing characters, the brilliant way fully-realized characters were opposed to each other, the way the game made you do things that made your skin crawl. On the horror side, there were so so so many moments of intense adrenaline. On the storytelling side, I’ve rarely seen a story as moving and as difficult as this, explored in a way that only video games can realize. This is gaming as an artform, and Naughty Dog has secured my loyalty for life.

    In the interest of keeping this spoiler-free, I don’t wanna say much else, except buy this game. Play it with an open mind. It is dark and messy and **** and some parts will drain you, anger you, make you question a lot. Every aspect of it is working towards telling one of the most powerful experiential stories I have ever witnessed. As a software engineer by day, and writer by night, both parts of me feel elated to the highest level for having experienced this. Games of this quality rarely occur.. The Last of Us Part 2 is without equal, a generation-defining masterpiece, and my favorite game of all time.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I think it's obvious by now that this game is not for everyone. For me, I think Naughty Dog knocked it out of the park yet again.
    First of all the graphics, the big set pieces and acting in the game are phenomenal, no one can deny it. I really enjoy the gameplay too (some people get burned out by it but that's what happens when you play like 17 hours at a time) the visceral combat is fantastic. But what I am really impressed by is the bold direction they took with the story and the way they structured it. By the end of the game I really grew fond of Abby even though she killed Joel, one of the most beloved video game characters. And even though Ellie's story breaks my heart because I care about her so much that's what I signed up for when I play a game like this. This is a bleak world and no other games leave me devastated by the end like The Last of Us does to the point I don't feel like playing anything else for a while.
    I don't know how people were expecting for ND to just make an exact copy to the first game, that was neved going to happen. Also Ellie is not that innocent girl anymore, deal with it, this is a perfect evolution of her story.

    Thank you Sony for continuing to give us these experiences , the best in entertainment. And to the people who work for this website, please make it a thing to verify the purchase when giving a score for a game because we get thousands of people who've never played the game

I say 80% because there are some slower moments when playing as Abby but overall I felt engaged most of the way through. Regarding the ending, it did not bother, Ellie makes to the choice to not become the person she despises, Abby, instead she remembers Joel as she wanted to, which is her goal.

    Overall, I feel like the preconceived perception of this game and the love for the first one; coupled with some fair criticism, such as the length of Abby's part or the writing in some cases, are hurting what is in my opinion a good and solid gaming experience.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Most of the negative reviews seem to be based on the story. Which I completely understand but to give it a zero rating is madness, it may not be for you but rating this as zero is either being salty or a review bomb. The games music, graphics and voice acting are second to none. The tone it sets is one of suspense and shocking awe. The environmental story telling elements are done with care and enhance the experience. The gameplay is similar to the first game but updated slightly. There is something so satisfying and visceral about the stealth take downs.

    I haven’t gone into story spoilers as going into this game having not seen the leaks meant the big moments hit like a freight train. I am not a particularly big last of us fan but this is a masterpiece and much like another favourite game of mine death stranding it’s not for everyone but it’s for me. It will boil down to how you like the story presented and for me I loved it.

(Spoiler free) The Last of Us part 2, is an experience that will push your buttons, make you hate the developers, make you curse at its charecters, will make you cry because you can't control your anger anymore. Naughty Dog has always rewarded our faith with their games. Except for this one. This game will either build you up to a better you, or make you hate Naughty dog for the rest of your life. Sometimes we get so attached with certain emotions that we lose sight of what's right and what's wrong. This is the game where you will feel wrong when you do the right things, and you will feel right, doing the wrong things. The game will make you question your morals and ethics with everything you go through in this game. With a near flawless gameplay mechanics , and breathtaking visuals you are about to experience something that you don't want to experience , but is necessary to experience as human beings. The Last of Us part 2, is an incredible game. However, as a Gamer I may never be able to forgive Naughty dog because of the mental breakdown they put me through, because of one thing which I can't mention because of spoiler purposes. But maybe one day, I'd like to try. My rating as a Gamer- 7/10

    My rating as a critique- 9/10

    If you never played The Last of Us , you will highly likely love this game, but if you did play the first one, you will most likely never forgive Naughty Dog. - Nahian Kjellberg Punk

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I can’t believe people would rate a game objectively based on how they are so biased to hate anything about this game. This is art. Not entirely perfect but pretty close. The deep themes of love and loss, vengeance, mental illness and struggles are obviously missed by a lot of people who don’t understand it. Put yourself in Ellie’s shoes and you’ll understand. The fact that people complained and thought Abby was trans because of her MUSCLES further proves my point of all the toxic fanboyism. Joel’s death was sad but a very important piece of the story that some people purely disliked because “oMg jOEl cOulDn’T diE LiKe tHiS eSpEciaLLy tO tHe hAnDs oF a gIrL”. It’s sad, no one wanted it.

Obra maestra que marcará un antes y un después en la historia de los videojuegos y de la narrativa. Nunca había vivido, como ya he dicho en otras ocasiones, una experiencia similar. The Last Of Us Parte II es un juego que, más alla de las imágenes y los sonidos, te trasmite multitud de sensaciones y emociones a través del mando. El ingenio narrativo creado para el juego permite indagar en nuevas formas de trasmitir y buscar la empatia, la ira, la rabia, el amor y el odio. Y lo genial es que de todos esos temas universales trata este juego.

    Se trata de un ajedrez disfrazado de western postapocaliptico donde todas las piezas cumplen una función esencial. Es muy superior a la primera entrega, que ya en su día sentó precedente. Ahora "The Last Of Us" vuelve a marca un antes y un después y nadie quedará indiferente.

    Ni siquiera aquellos, que han decidido machacarlo despiadadamente porque se niegan a experimentar el ejercicio reflexivo que propone, podrán huir de él. Sin duda alguna, es un juego adelantado a su época.

While there are several points throughout the story that the player may find disappointing, nothing seems forced or unreasonable. By no means does this game deserve any score lower than a 7/10 by an average player. If you were fans of the first gameThe world of The Last of Us is a cruel, dangerous, and often exhilarating experience. Unfortunately the game is review bombed for its story. While there are several points throughout the story that the player may find disappointing, nothing seems forced or unreasonable. By no means does this game deserve any score lower than a 7/10 by an average player. If you were fans of the first game please don’t hesitate to give this game a try. The sense of scope and exploration has increased tenfold and the result is a beautiful and intriguing environment. However, if you did not enjoy the first The Last of Us, it’s unlikely you will enjoy this sequel. That being said, story sequels like this generally improve upon the first game’s vision rather than completely altering the formula. In that sense this game has succeeded spectacularly. While there are some issues with game mechanics that I wish could be altered it does not detract majorly from the game experience. The game is not perfect, but it is not only playable but enjoyable. Anyone who gives this game a 0-5/10 is not doing an accurate job at a critical review. If you feel like you want to pick this game up, then you should. Expand

    I don't understand what is being done in this section. The last of us part 2 is a delight made video game. We can criticize any aspect like the graphics, the gameplay, the mechanics ... But put a zero for ideological issues? I can not believe it.

    Since Friday I can’t tear myself away from the gameplay. Sitting at work, I dream of getting home as soon as possible and turning on ps4. It is unfortunate that users of other platforms on which the game did not work out break the rating of such a game. Bravo, developers!

    I saw most leaks and as most this game seemed like absolute trash. I almost didn’t buy this game. That’s how upset I was at what the leaks contained, but I believed in Naughty Dog’s ability to make great games. So the game was bought, I pre-ordered it even. And it’s worth the buy. It was worth the wait too. Seven years did this game justice and I hate to say it, but.......it’s aI saw most leaks and as most this game seemed like absolute trash. I almost didn’t buy this game.

Not the fake internet mob who hate to see greatness shine unless it follows exactly what they want rather than experience Ming what the developer wants to tell. This was never Our story(fans of the game) , this was Joel and Ellie’s story and it’s worth all the twists and turns. All the the heartache and heartwarming moments. A true work of art that has to be experienced to understand to its fullest. Game of the Generation HANDS DOWN. Expand

    I have no idea why so many people feel that they push the LGBTQ propaganda so much. seems like most people complaining really never played the full game. especially when many of the reviews Came out on the first day. in the first game was Ellie a badass lesbian in love with a girl from a previously held down group.

You really start to hate Abby and want all the pain in the world to happen to her. I love this game and I'm among the people who feel the LGBTQ movement has gone too far. I'm among the people who are called out for hatred towards the movement.

    Не знаю почему игроки хейтят игру. Возможно из-за второй половины, но это точно не повод для 4.9 Мне хоть и не особо понравился отрезок игры, где ты играешь за Эбби, но все равно игра суперская. Все, начиная от геймплея, и, заканчивая сюжетом и концовки, на вашем уровне. Пока что для меня-то игра года и одна из любимийших игр(кстати вторая часть мне зашла больше)Не знаю почему игроки хейтят игру.

    It too bad this game had gotten such poor user ratings, this game is fantastic. I played the game all the way to the end on survivor difficulty it was very challenging and fun. The story is dark and immersive. My only complaint is the last of trophy’s and no trophy’s for separate difficulties.

Achei o jogo ótimo, uns dos melhores dessa geração se não for o melhor, eu joguei e zerei ele no dia do lançamento, tive 23 horas de jogo, e não tive nenhum problema com bugs ou repetição de inimigos, e eu gostei da história, tem algumas falhas, como a de a gente não jogar com o Joel ou a de matarem o Jesse sem explorar o personagem. Mas tirando isso eu acho que o jogo em geral é muito bom, a trilha sonora, gráficos, imersão, enredo histórico, tudo foi ótimo nesse jogo, chegou perto da perfeição esse jogo, ele realmente é uma obra prima, igual o seu antecessor.

    It has been 7 years of waiting and it was worth it. It is a masterpiece with all the beautiful details and experiences that just stay in you. Everything about it perfect. Surely many won't be able to deal with its realistic aspects but then they should play a different genre and not a survival action game.

    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]
