    This game is a masterpiece! It makes you change your perspective throughout the game, it's a surreal experience. Nothing like you'd find on any other media platform. Don't let anyone fool you, play it yourself.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As the game began, I was hit with immediate nostalgia when I saw Ellie. The snowball fight while being a tutorial was also a welcome introduction to Dina. I knew nothing about this game and I was able to soak it in. My mind was coming up with theories left and right and then when we first switch over to Abby as she’s talking to Owen I immediately went to “oh **** These are fireflies “ When IT happened I gasped and felt outraged. Pure hatred toward the WLF, but with the outrage also a slight bit of understanding. Abby saved Ellie. She didn’t have to, but she realized after delivering the killing blow that she didn’t get the satisfaction she wanted. She stopped herself. The game escalated quickly from there into a pure revenge story. Once we hit Seattle and got the stack of photos, I thought it would open up into a free form murder quest where you can go after them all how you want. But Naughty Dog delivered something so tight and considered and the story was allowed to play out in the darkest bleakest ways. But with the darkness comes the light. When this game has bright spots, it is blinding. I loved the jump back to Museum. The little jokes between Dina and Ellie, the song that you would miss Ellie play if you didn’t go back to the record shop and all the other tiny nuances that left this as a great book that I couldn’t put down. Then the switch happened. They pulled an MGS2 on us and made us play as the ‘villain.’ I saw it from the jump that oh okay I get it, you want me to feel something for the baddie so that when I kill her I am felt feeling gross. A few mins in, I figured I would do a quick scene with her and then we would snap back to the Theater. But no, we went through the whole game again. Slowly but surely I began to feel things for Abby and even worse, began to feel remorse because I knew what would happen to each and every one of these WLF characters. Poor Vita girl. Just wanted to play Hotline Miami. As I got closer and closer to this antagonist I began to empathize with her more than I did Ellie. Ellie: she’s immune. Could have been the cure and had her life mean something, finds out her father figure doomed humanity, then he gets murdered for it. Goes out on a revenge mission. I get it. Abby: a firefly. Dad is on the cusp of developing a cure to save the world. Everyone she knows and loves gets murdered. Misses out on the chance to live a normal life and instead trains her body to become the perfect yoked killing machine to get the boogyman who took everything from her. I get that too. (Abby never missed arm day in her life) I love the fact that the scar leader, in any other game would have had such significance. She would have been Yara and levs mother or at the very least a big boss battle. But no, in this game she’s long dead and it’s only through letters of people that come after her and passing dialogue from Lev that give you insight into who she was and the religion she founded. Lev and Yara. They are a fantastic pair. From the onset, I knew I would like them and then when it’s hinted at why the Scars call Lev an apostate. Just such fantastic writing. It’s understated and not even played up for a shock. I’m pretty sure it’s just two separate lines of dialogue and a letter. But it’s handled like just another situation in the last of us 2. Understated and with respect. I found myself dreading getting back to the theatre as Abby because while I have now grown to love her, I really didn’t want to see her kill Ellie, let alone Dina. Thankfully the game did not end there. This game is a game about revenge, no doubt about that. But it’s also a game about the consequences and of the after. Both Abby and Ellie get what they feel they needed and both are able to walk away. Both stories end in darkness, but they also move to the light. ——

    Gameplay-wise, this is probably the best stealth game I’ve played since metal gear solid 5. Everything is always by the skin of your teeth, and enemies have weight and consequence. You feel as though they are real people and such I went out of my way to kill as few as possible in certain situations. Graphically, I’d say it’s the most impressive game I’ve played. I stunned with what they do with lighting. The audio especially with headphones is probably the best I’ve been immersed in a world especially hearing those horrifying whistles close behind me and not knowing exactly what it means. This game is by far the best piece of media I have ever experienced. As a game, it has its issues, but as a piece of interactive media this is by far my favourite thing that I have seen, read or heard. This is not the story that I had created for Joel and Ellie in my mind. But this is something so much greater. This is the story that Neil Druckman, Troy Baker, Laura Bailey, Shannon Woodward & Ashley Johnson created with a team of brilliant individuals. Phenomenal.

    Technically speaking the game is just flawless, perfect. The middle level might be a bit easy if you've played a lot but is just a matter of changing dificulty.

O desenvolvimento de todos os personagens são incríveis, o jogo te joga uma montanha russa de emoções em várias partes da campanha. Seja ódio, tristeza, felicidade, tudo. O final é excelente e passa uma grande lição De moral. É completamente aberto a interpretações, foge completamente de uma história clichê que todos estás acostumados. Expand

    Nothing but a masterpiece. An incredible experience with a powerful story which could not be told in any other type of media. One of my top 3 games of all time. Sadly, the controversy and review bombing of trolls will detract programers from producing games like this. Maybe decades will pass before we see something so powerful that is not afraid of going places, like The Last of Us part 2.

    Another great game by Naughty Dog! Everything from the visuals to the acting and story is top notch. The gameplay is significantly improved over the first. Especially in the variety in how to approach enemies. Gameplay feels really fluid. Deaths are really brutal and they turned the brutality way up in this game. Kills feel much more weighted than a standard goon that's meant to be takenAnother great game by Naughty Dog! Everything from the visuals to the acting and story is top notch. The gameplay is significantly improved over the first. Especially in the variety in how to approach enemies. Gameplay feels really fluid. Deaths are really brutal and they turned the brutality way up in this game. Kills feel much more weighted than a standard goon that's meant to be taken down. The first time an enemy begged for their life I genuinely stopped for a moment to see if mercy was an option. It isn't.

    As for the story that has become so divisive, I genuinely enjoyed it thoroughly. I won't type spoilers in my review, but the story was really bold and took big risks that you don't see in video game stories. This feels like a large jump forward in narrative based video games, much like the first last of us was.

    If you're considering whether to play this game, my advice is to go for it. Go in blind. Read as little as possible before jumping in. I did that and I loved the game. A shame the game became a proxy war. Even the review score on this site can't be trusted as you don't know how many are genuine and how many are fake. It's obvious a large amount of fake reviews exist by simply comparing the insanely large amount of reviews to this game to games that made more sales than the last of us 2, like red dead 2. Plus, a **** ton of reviews popped up within the first 24 hours of the game being out. The game is roughly a 25 hour game, so those reviews couldn't have been genuine. Oh well, all in all, great game and I highly recommend playing it

    This game took my heart, stomped on it, shot it, and threw it off a 70 story building. No other form of media has made me feel in this way. Following the first game with a simple plot but an intricate and engaging story. Coupled with amazing gameplay, graphics, and performances makes this one of the greatest games I have ever played.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It took me sometime to analyse and understand the heap of emotions I experienced for the past three week ever since I started playing this masterpiece. I have been playing video games for more than 20 years now. All these years I have enjoyed all type of games but I haven't experienced such a deep and profound video game experience ever before. Naughty dog have really taken the narrative driven video game genre to another level, this is the first time in the history of video games where a game have completely resolved the problem of ludonarrative dissonance which we often associate with narrative driven video games.

    (SPOILERS AHEAD)

    In my humble opinion last of us 2 even surpassed the original last of us. This time the story is more creepy, dynamic and scary.

    Most of the video game developers nowadays don't take story in video games seriously, they simply put stories in their games just for the sake of putting it, as a result you would end up getting an Amateurish, and outright silly stories in almost all of the video games. It's always a challenge for developers to blend a mature story with gameplay elements which an average gamer might expect,since both are conflicting in nature, some of the developers have tried and ended up failing miserably on both the fronts. But naughty dog took bold steps to resolve this age old conflict and I can very well say that they came out with flying colors.

    I have finished the game in survivor mode and the gameplay experience was very challenging and satisfying at the same time.

    And the story is something which is worthy of a Netflix series on its own, throughout the game i often wondered am I really playing a video game?? That's how matured, deep and dynamic the story was. Even while playing with the NPC as your allies, the conversation which they have between themselves sounds quite natural and genuine and it doesn't feel forced, its pretty apparent that developers didn't take any aspects of the game lightly.

    Despite unanimous approval from all of the reviewers some of the users are disappointed with this game and it's story, it happens mainly because of the fact that most of the average gamer haven't experienced such a deep dynamic story and character arcs in a video game ever before.

    All they want is some straight to the point simple average story. Naughty dog knowingly took the bold risk of choosing a story which will divide the fan base into two and yes it actually divided the fan base, and it's fine as a video game need not satisfy all of the gamers out there, and I completely understand why some people don't like it. Most of the fans of the first game got emotionally attached to protagonist of the first game Joel, and they didn't like the fact that their favourite character died in the initial act of the story itself and the worst of all in the later part of the game they have to play as a character who killed Joel. But the main reason behind that idea was to understand different perspectives and for me personally it really worked, I started liking Abby over the course of the game, yes,at certain parts it was challenging for me, especially in the part where she had to fight with Ellie, but if you remove your unconscious emotional bias towards certain characters and play the game mainly for the sheer experience of it,then this game rewards you with a profound, real experience which you wouldn't have experienced in any other video games before.

    It's been more than 3 weeks since I finished this game but i feel somehow sad and empty ever since. No other video game have impacted me this much.

    Does it make this a perfect game?? the answer is "NO" but the game flaws can be forgiven and it's shortcomings can be ignored,since what you are playing is not some other random crap, it's a genre defining Experience which will inspire many more developers to take this route and this gem will be remembered as one of the greatest achievement in the history of video games.

    5/5.

    The story could have been just the same, but told in a different order and it would have made the player empathise more with the characters, but the way it starts just kills all the enjoyment or will to know Abby. I don't know if that was the real intention of Naughty Dog, maybe they just wanted to make the player suffer throughout the entire game. It leaves you somehow broken, just like Ellie.

    So the game has its weakness in the narrative, but the rest of the gameplay and acting is just pure gold.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game does have some flaws but is still a near perfect game. People always say that people only like it since lev is trans and Ellie is gay but I think those make the game a bit worse. The beginning of the game seems like Ellie’s sexuality is to important. If she wasn’t having sex with Ellie then she might of met Joel Earlier and saved him from dieing. The soundtrack of the game doesn’t have the most good songs but has some awesome songs. Ellie singing take on me is by far one of the best covers ever in a video game. Also Joel singing future days is really beautiful. The ending is what people are always nit picking and hating on but you just have to understand what it means. Ellie spared Abby because she realized that killing Abby wouldn’t bring Joel back alive. Ellie decided to let Abby live to give lev the life Joel gave her. People also say that the whole Abby section was just a waste of time. It is kinda but not really. It shows us why Abby killed Joel since he killed her dad. The Abby section was to make us see her point of view. I’m not saying you have to love Abby and want Ellie to die because I still think Ellie is better but you should at least see that she actually has a kinda nice side to her. All she was trying to find closure for her dads death by helping lev and yara. Some things that are bad in the game are Tommy and Maria’s relationship should be more important I think in the game because even in the first game Tommy didn’t seem important. I didn’t like that you have to play as Abby while she fights Ellie because every video I see on the Ellie boss fight starts off as the person dieing on purpose. Another thing I didn’t like about tlou2 is since Ellie lost her fingers at the end of the game she can’t play the guitar. That means that most likely the guitar will be a one game thing. Also the guitar is a sign of Joel. I did like how the game started and ending with the guitar but the guitar is a sign of Joel and since Ellie can’t play it we won’t see it again. I did like how Ellie did lay the guitar down to show that she is letting Joel go to rest in her mind. TLOU2 does have some flaws that I can see but the greatness does out way the poor things. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Refined and polished game play, gorgeous settings, fluid and beautiful character animation - while all not surprising, the truly masterful part of this game is the depth, darkness, and parallels of the main characters.

    The first portion of the game is presented for you to feel angry and vengeful just like Ellie, but by the time you finish, you realize just how terribly similar both Ellie and Abby are. Their need for revenge costs them not only their mental health, but the lives and happiness of their loved ones. This goes hand in hand with establishing the fact that the world isn't all about Joel and Ellie and their actions have huge consequences. By the time the final fight started, I just wanted both characters to not hurt one another anymore.

    I think my only complaint with this game is the strange pacing for the last few hours. It wasn’t inherently bad. I just thought It was ending and it WASN’T. In hindsight, I’m glad it had you press on with Ellie who was just relentless, desperate, and lost, and I don’t know how it could have even been done differently. I probably would have taken a break in the middle had I’d known somehow, tho.

    Overall, this game was amazing. It’s the next day and I just can’t stop thinking about it. It’s been a long time since a video game has affected me this way. Loved it.

Naughty dog and all the staff involved with every aspect of the game should be commended for thinking outside the box and giving an engaging experience to players. It encouraged different perspectives, not just the blind kill everyone and everything that walks approach of other games.
    Overall this was a highly enjoyable experience, perhaps not for everybody but I recommend trying the game itself to form your own opinion as some opinions on this game can be biased. Happy playing!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I dived into this game with caution after reading some general comments on social media. I took my time to play it and enjoy it and I am glad that I did it with an open mind. This is one of the best narratives I've seen in a videogame,

    Calling this a "revenge story" is diminishing what this game tries to portray, those gamers hating the game because they make you play as Abby are exactly what the developers wanted. To feel the anger of pain of losing a father, but then understanding the path to forgiveness and acceptance.

    If you got mad at Joel's death, felt Anger towards Abby, wanted her to die as much as Ellie did, the the game suceeded and deserves all the praise in the world. However, if at the end of the game you got mad because the plot of revenge never came to an end, then you might have beaten the game, but failed at what the story was trying to portray.

    The only reason why this game is not a 10 IMO is because the gameplay loop is a little bit boring (just as the first one) and because I really didn't enjoy the setting of the last chapter.

    The best part of this game is the introduction of what will undoubtedly be a classic video game character: Abby...whatever her last name turned out to be.

    Esta es una historia para todo tipo de personas, por supuesto que muchas personas lo odian y respeto eso. Pero sin duda es una continuación más que digna y justificada de la anterior, donde profundizamos la relación con Ellie y Joel.
    No quiero dar spoilers, pero si realmente entiendes de filosofía y literatura, el final con el que nos deja es un claro ejemplo de como llevar una historia a su límite. El final es una simbologia total de la relación que Ellie no pudo arreglar a tiempo con Joel, hasta que al final, por fin puede perdonarse a si misma, esa es la razón por la qué no mata a Abby.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ellie regresa como protagonista y se profundiza a detalle en sus relaciones interpersonales, de pareja y con su defectuosa figura paterna. El viaje que tomará es introspectivo, pues conocerá fragmentos de su pasado que cambiaron la perspectiva de quienes la rodean. Se trata de un ejercicio narrativo efectivo ya que no se siente que se haya traicionado la esencia de los personajes principales. Para lograr lo anterior, las actuaciones de Troy Baker y Ashley Johnson son realmente encomiables porque aportan una enorme dosis de humanidad a lo que se ve en pantalla. Ashley es, sin duda, quien se roba el show gracias a una actuación estelar que refleja de forma humana los diferentes matices en cada faceta del personaje de Ellie. Baker, por su parte, retrata a un hombre agotado que carga con demasiado en la espalda y quien busca la redención en una de las personas que más estima en la vida y que, incluso, ama incondicionalmente. En ambos casos, las caracterizaciones son estelares y dignas de todo elogio imaginable. Expand

First off, I understand why this game is getting so much hate. I really get it. I think the hate is wrong and misplaced, but I get it. Except for me, all the things that everyone hates so much, I actually don’t mind. These things were necessary for the story. Especially when you have to do that thing halfway through the game for over 10 hours, I didn’t mind it and I thought it added a lot of humanity to the game and the characters. Towards the end, I hated both sides and didn’t want anyone to win because I thought everyone was wrong. And then in the final 3-4 hours, I loved both sides and was happy with the way it ended. The story of Joel and Ellie (and others) is a beautiful one and all in all, it’s a 10/10 for me. It’s not nearly as good as the first game, but it’s a 10/10 in its own way. Good job Naughty Dog. Proud of your team for going a direction not many people go. It’s a masterpiece whether people will admit or not. I think the reason people hate the game is because they wanted to play a game that they wanted. But you don’t get what you want. You support the developers and play their game. You’re not in charge of how a game comes out. So be the consumer and stop hating. If you’re hesitant to buy this game, I’d recommend it, but only if you go in with an open mind and ready to process all that’s thrown at you. It’s an emotional and intense game that has more twists than anyone could have guessed even outside the leaks. Play it. Just go for it. Expand

Llegara el punto en que empezaras a jugar con Abby y con ella pasaras al rededor de un 40% del juego, y este punto es totalmente nesesario para la historia ya que busca provarte el punto del juego dandote el pasado y los motivos de Abby mostrandotr que es un personaje que sufre y que tiene sus problemas y ademas que demuestra como el acto de amor del anterior juego de salvar a Ellie dejo fuertes repercuciones en Abby, y logra muy bien el echo de hacerte entender el personaje y hasta conectar con el, este juego te seguira llevando por diferentes momentos hasta el punto en que estaras en desacuerdo con el personaje de Ellie mostrandote como la venganza la consume h la lleva por un camino que le dejara fuertes cicatrices, ya que terminara con su redencion pero en un punto en que ya paga las consecuencias por tener el deseo de vengar a quien alguna vez fue lo mas parecido a un padre que pudo tener, por esto y mucho mas que solo se puede experimentar jugando esta obra de arte es que para mi es un 100/10 y vale mucho la pena jugarlo 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...
