    Gram od dwuch dni i przyznaję że od bardzo dawna nie grałem w piękniejszą grę. Oprawa graficzna jest naprawdę śliczna a sama historia jest świetnie prowadzona. Naprawdę mi szkoda osób które oglądały spojlery i zrezygnowali z gry

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As you have seen the last of us 2 is being highly appreciated in many famous newspapers such as IGN 10/10, imformer game 10/10, ......
    And currently getting a very good score of 96 on metacritic. However, some components of toxic players are outrageous
    willing to throw critics who positively review the game and criticize the game heavily even though not playing it yet seems to make some critics "shaky" (typically Mr. Skill) Upload something) !!! It seems they don't want to "accept the fact that The last of Us 2 is truly excellent". Now, any positive review posted online will receive a fair amount of disliked besides the cue lines teased !!!!!
    Everyone, please keep an objective attitude about the game, not because of the leaks, but say the game without thinking !!! Anyway TLOU 2 is the 7-year effort of the ND development team please cherish it !!!!    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Итак, прошло 10 часов с тех пор как TLOU2 стала доступна, но мамкины геймеры уже прошли игру и вынесли ей вердикт. В принципе, игра этого не заслужила, некоторые сюжетные повороты спорные, но они важные для сюжета, видимо эти люди хотели игру, где главный герой Джоэль снова мочит всех направо и налево, но игра не про это, вот и полыхнуло и в этом они увидели "сжв заговор". Эти люди зарегистрировались на метакритике лишь бы поставить негативную оценку и честно, я считаю, что они, простите, конченные мразоты, которые не удосужились поиграть в игру, срут ее за то, чего в ней нет и из-за создают негативный ореол вокруг игры и это пойдет ей не на пользу. Если вдруг после этого Naughty Dog перестанет делать такие игры и уйдут в попкорновую попсу, которая и нужна этим дегенератам, то мы потеряем еще одну классную студию, такое было не раз.… Expand

Thankfully these user scores don’t change the fact that this is hands down one of the best titles on the PS4, and a gripping one that will have you questioning your own morals at times. The gameplay is tight, the production values through the roof and beyond, and the story is engaging. The voice acting and character animations are the best I’ve seen.

    Everyone who is giving it a 1 or a 10 is what’s wrong with the gaming community today. The game takes risks, some work some really don’t. But it will engross you like very few narratives before it will have. The gameplay is tense, fluid and frankly incredible. It isn’t a masterpiece by any means, but everyone who is giving it a 1 needs to seriously stop being a little biitch about everything

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is superb! Stop listening to these kids giving a rating based mostly on the leaks. Yes, Ellie is gay (so what?), that chick who killed Joel has muscles (so what?), the game is very brutal and graphic (that's why the 18+ rating), and yes the story is not as strong as the first one but it's a great story still. I actually liked the Abby gameplay and story, especially the second part of it.
    Btw, Abby is not trans. In the flashbacks, she is the daughter of the doctor that was supposed to extract the cure from Ellie. This proves once again the people just want this game to fail based on their beliefs and other crap.
    For me, Part 2 is a worthy sequel and the story got me emotionally invested.
    To explain my rating, I am giving the gameplay and technical stuff a 10 and the story an 8.5. If you are a mature and reasonable person you will like this game a lot!    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really dont understand from where all the hate comes for this game. The characters are interesting and I like that they show the other side and the story of Abby. We are in the world of a deadly pandemic, there are no right ir wrong anymore. Neil Druckmann said this game will be different with a different message. Obviously we can argue about losing a beloved character, there is no right way for that.

    TLOU Part II story is stronger and more complex than the first part. It is a great sequel and give a beautiful closure for Ellie. She went through hell in Last of Us Part 2 she struggles with hate, revenge, love and mercy. She pays the ultimate price for her revenge. She doesnt make the right choices in number of occasions but at the end she did a right thing to let Abby go. Brilliant game with a great message. It is not for everyone and you do can see that in the user scores. (However this is still result of hate campaigh of some clickbait youtubers based on the leaks and false information).

    Also I would like to add that the previous part story line was predictable but still exceptional, however, part two has strong turns and twist from the very start till the end. It pushes everyone to look a bit in themselves and ask what would I do? would I have the strength to do this? This level of complexity in story and characters is externally rare in videogames but even in filmmaking. I also fund it genius on how involved the players become from begin. Neil Druckmann and his team created a truly misunderstood masterpiece.

    It is great just like the first part and please give it a true chance and if you really loved the first part than don’t listen to all the hate and misinformation! Make up your own mind and opinion!

To me, that would be so true of today's current landscape, but until this happens Neil Druckmann can't tell me that black lives matter!!

    And yeah another amazing hit from Neil Druckmann what a powerful man this guy is, another wonderful game and finally that toxic white man from TLOU1 is gone. THANK YOU DRUCKMANN!!!

    1.Трансгендер.Левая повестка в игре имеется,но ее очень мало.И я могу оправдать спокойно тему про шовинизм, волосатые подмышки,а также накаченную Эбби.Все это спокойно вписывается в лор этого мира,но не трансгендер.Человеку,который находится в религиозной секте в мире про зомби,когда надо каждую секунду думать о том как выживать персонаж размышляет о своей гендерной принадлежности.
    2.Разрабы очень кичились перед выходом игры то что противники будут между сбой общаться,называть имена друг друга,но даже когда нам в первый раз показали геймплей,там все противники были одинаковы.Так и в игре у группировки под названием шрамы/серафиты всего лишь 3-4 модельки противников. Ты убиваешь одинаковые лица.
    Это пожалуй все СИЛЬНЫЕ минусы этой игры.Сюжет,геймплей,левел дизайн,гейм дизайн великолепны.После концовки игры ты морально опустошен,это великолепное чувство.

    Todos tenemos gustos diferentes, pero para los que no les gusta la historia por lo que sucede con los personajes, vayan y jueguen otro videojuego donde siempre salven a la princesa y todo sea juego de pólvora y felicidad. Este juego NO es para todos, pero eso no le quita que sea Una OBRA MAESTRA, se nota el gran trabajo. Gran manera de cerrar para esta generación.    … Expand

In reality, it has some of the best graphics of any game I played this generation, very smooth gameplay and, although you may not like where it goes, the story is good. Just because someone was bold enough to make a decision you might not like from a story standpoint, it is not a reason to hate a game that is great otherwise. Many of the problems that people had before the game even launched with the leaks was deaths. If you expect to come into the Last of Us Part 2 and not have characters die you should probably put down your controller and go grab your Switch and play Animal Crossing. It would be like watching a war movie and expecting no one to die.

    The bottom line is even if you end up hating the story the gameplay is fluid, the graphics are fantastic, the environments are amazing and the exploration is engaging. If you're hating that bad on the story skip the cutscenes and just have fun with the game and stop trying to ruin it for other people.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'll start with the two easy categories that I shouldn't need to explain... Spoilers ahead. Sound: 10/10. Best of PS4 IMO
    Graphics: 10/10. Best of PS4 IMO

    Now for the controversial aspects... Gameplay: 9/10

    A lot of you talk about how this only had minor improvements over TLOU1. I ask you, nay plead with you, to watch Voyager's TLOU2 brutal combat video. If you are good at the game and tweak the settings to your liking, you can have a hell of a good time every minute of combat. Do it. Your jaw will drop. Story: 8/10
    I actually really loved this emotional roller coaster ride. Yes, even the ending. Certain points in the story will make you upset, and that was the director's intention. You are supposed to be mad. I don't mind Joel getting done dirty. He massacred the fireflies... it's only reasonable that they would have their revenge at the first opportunity and it not need to be built-up. That's not how life works, people. Stuff just happens that we wish didn't happen in life and I like the game's brutal reminder of that. I'm docking the story one point because I don't quite buy Joel stating his name to business. Maybe if the game showed his five years in a safe town (even older now) as a means to soften his character, then maybe... But they should have given us more to fuel that logic. I've docked it another full point for two reasons in one: because there definitely was a bit of pandering. I don't mind inclusion at all! Some stuff was just too on-the-nose for my liking. I'm not actually referring to Abby, but Lev's arc. I actually did like Abby. She grew on me! She's very easy to initially view as ugly--- inside and out - - - (her hatred conveyed through her expressions... I'm not talking about her resting physical appearance). Also the sex scene wasn't necessary simply because I doubt they'd have made such a scene with a more... "conventionally attractive" person. It kind of felt like they were saying "Look at this! You SHOULD think this is beautiful.". I don't know what else to say besides it just felt forced. I got over it, though. I was considering docking this section a third point because I was having a hard time buying that Ellie would leave after killing Mel and Owen. But then I thought about it... she was in shock and traumatized after crossing such a huge moral line, regardless of intention. But then as we found out, Abby wasn't there yet anyway so they may have looked around for her for hours and realized she was gone. I was considering giving the story a 7/10, but I just thought the story was such an emotional roller coaster (that I mostly thoroughly enjoyed) that I can't in good conscience score it a 7/10. It's an 8/10 for these creative choices they took. If they handled Joel's death better and cooled it with the on the nose pandering, I would have given it a 10.

    I, for one, absolutely loved how it ended. I don't mind the choice Ellie made. I understand why she made it. I understand it because I played the game thoroughly and I understood Abby's motivations. To sum the two games. TLOU1:
    The main character travels far and wide to accomplish their goal, and intimately "makes the wrong decision" by changing their mind... For personal reasons.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. At the time of writing, there are 23000 negative reviews for the Last of Us Part II. By looking over the achievement scores on my copy of the game, I can see that less than 2 in 100 people have actually finished it. There's also a trophy you can get at the midpoint of the game gained by winning an (admittedly easy) competition, which less than 10 in 100 people have. That doesn't mean that no one writing a negative review has finished the game, there are legitimate issues with the Last of Us 2 that I can't deny (and will try to address, later). But, in that same vein, I don't think everyone panning the game has played it in its entirety

    There's a meme going around about a person talking about Part II's 'intended experience', then getting shot in the knee with a shotgun. It's a good point, a game isn't good just because you feel what is intended. But what I do say is that the intended experience behind Part II is worthwhile. And it's not being shot in the knee, if that's what you're thinking

    I think a lot of the problems people have with the game stem from blaming Druckmann for the actions of his characters. It's absolutely fair to do so, but, whilst you play the game, I would urge you to think of it as a story in its own right, instead of the aborted fetus of an evil mastermind. In short: have some faith. Naughty Dog knows what it's doing. Come to your conclusions after finishing the game, and don't play it hating Druckmann. Hate his characters

    However, word of warning, it is a very different game to the original Last of Us

    That's my advice for now. Below here we're getting into spoiler territory. If you own the game, and have quit, disgusted, give it another shot. At the very least, the gameplay is fun, even if you hate the story
    -----

    Okay. The big issue with the Part 2, the one central to almost every problem players have with this game, is the death of Joel. It's a big issue. The marketing of the game, which featured Joel prominently, is intended to obfuscate his early and sudden death. Many suspected he might die, but not so early on. I can see why Naughty Dog did it, but it was a huge mistake. People came in expecting a similar game to the original, and bought it wanting that experience. It's not even remotely similar. It does not share the same emotion that made the original so beloved. Part 2 is more sophisticated in many ways, and I think it might be 'better', insofar as I can make that claim, but it will never be enjoyable in the same way.

    A lot of people have said that Part 2 is about violence, and revenge. It is, of course. But at the very heart of Ellie and Abby's actions is trauma. A large part of that trauma, for Ellie, is having so much unfinished business with Joel. A feeling the player no doubt shares. This doesn't become obvious until the game is nearly finished, but looking back, the final act is about Ellie dealing with his death. Joel was a bad person, who did bad things, and Ellie hated him but she also loved him and wanted more. It's confused in a way paternal/maternal relationships often are.
    So yeah. There's a reason Joel's death is abrupt and sudden, a reason thematically central to the game. Which is ironic, because the abruptness of his death is why most players hate the game.
    It's absolutely okay to hate Part 2, but hate it on the level it's meant to be dealt with
    Joel dies because he's a happier, less cynical person

    There's a lot more to say. Nearly every aspect of the game revolves around exploring its themes. Ellie and Abby are mirrors of one another, their actions and motivations very similar, one post-retribution, the other pre-retribution. The reason so much screen time is devoted to Abby is that Naughty Dog believes that the story would be incomplete without exploring both. The conflict between WLF and the Seraphites (Wolves and Scars) features trauma and revenge on a cultural scale. Everything about the game (except for some gameplay sections, I guess, but there are also gameplay sections that ARE focused on it) is bent towards exploring this theme, and I think Part 2 does so in a sophisticated manner

    Not much space, I'll try to address issues with the narrative quickly

    Most noticeably, narrative pacing is off. The first quarter of Abby's arc is spent without any sort of real, intriguing motivation for the player, beyond revisiting the cliffhanger. It works to push players forward, but most of the time when the plot gets slow there are excellent gameplay segments or environments to distract. Not so here. I spent a lot of that time bored, until meeting Lev. Naughty Dog attempts to intrigue the player by hinting at 'another side to the story' but it doesn't work until later

    Cultural retribution, a fascinating concept, remains largely unexplored except in small dialogue sections. A shame since there is so much empty space with Abby to work with

    Abby's sex scene is weird, there's no denying

    Advertising is well-meaning, but deceptive    … Expand

    За каждой анимацией смотреть одно удовольствие. Лучшая графика на PS4.
    Интересный геймплей, который лично меня заставлял каждую секунду быть во внимании к лишнему шуму и чужим голосам. История Элли очень трогает, заставляет переживать за неё и её друзей, моменты с флешбеками прямо погружают тебя в ту самую атмосферу. Все бы было идеально, если бы не мускулистая убийца Джоела - Эбби, за которую нам прилется играть почти половину игры. Да, у нее есть мотивация, персонаж хорошо прописан, но смотреть на ее мышщы - не то, чем я хотел заниматься половину игры. Если пропускать моменты с Эбби, то игра будет короче первой части, меня это сильно удручает, очень сильно, но по другому я врядли смогу пройти игру еще раз. Также расстроило то, что в игре слишком мало Джоела, Ноти Дог решили обмануть нас и поменяли модельки персонажей для трейлеров и для игры. Лично меня это очень расстроило, ведь я ожидал увидеть совместный путь Элли и Джоела, а увидел лишь флешбеки. Учитывая эти недостатки, я считаю нужным поставить игре 8-9, но поставлю 10, дабы хоть как-то улучшить ей рейтинг, нехер было ставить игре 0, даже не пройдя ее. Однозначно, игра - шедевр, но Дракману надо вставить пропиздон за его чересчур либеральные взляды, дабы следующая игра, если она выйдет, не была таким провалом в лице комьюнити.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Firstly, I would like to say I don’t think the narrative of the story is the best and it could be improved however I don’t think the current narrative is easy to diners or understand. I know I’m going to get called an ND fanboy for this but I just want to leave my thoughts about the game.(sorry for bad English in advance)

    After reading dozens of reviews, I have realised a vast majority of the users that rated down the game did not have a valid explanation as in why the game wasn’t good. from hating on ND Because they included characters from LGBT community(you should not play ND games if you are one of these) to being upset because Joel died. Or some upset because this wasn’t a story of hope and ‘light at the end of the Tunnel’ like the first game. People need to realise this is a different game with a completely different story.

    I have seen genuine criticism and I think some of them are good I personally did not like having to play through the character that killed one of the most beloved characters from the first game however I understand Naughty dogs decision to do this as this will further justify the story and the theme they are trying explore. The story spends a long time trying to make you empathise with Abby which just didn’t do it for me personally.

    However I do not believe the game needs to receive this much hate only because majority of the players did not really understand the message naughty dog was trying to convey which is that: revenge hurts you and everyone around you and there will be blood and consequences and there isn’t really winner. I did not exactly see Abby as winner in this. She lost everyone she care about and all of her plans ruined. Neither did Ellie. Her love left her and she did not get what she wanted. She just needed to accept that the burden of Joel’s death will be with her for the rest of her life. The point is that there was no winner in this bloody revenge story.

    In terms of the gameplay, sound design and the environment, naughty dog has set the bar very high. The graphics are incredible and the movements and gameplay are amongst the best I have seen.
    I decided to rate this game 10 out of 10 simply because I thought every other aspect of the scheme was perfect and beautifully crafted and I have much appreciation for naughty dog as a game company. I just don’t Believe the game needs to get this much backlash and hate simply because of its controversial and rather complex narrative.    … Expand

    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.
