    Despite the political agenda, LGBT, femoc, and so on. TLoU 2 is good, isn't a game that evokes emotions good? Yes, all sorts of minorities definitely ruined the game, but even considering this tlou2 is a masterpiece game.

    Великолепная игра. Люди жалуются на феминизм, но в саму игру они не играли. Всё, на что здесь повлиял феминизм - это внешний вид одного из персонажей, Эбби, которая, судя по внешнемю виду, жрёт только стероиды.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. É um jogo simplesmente impressionante, que tem como tema central a vingança. As ações de Joel no primeiro jogo iniciam um ciclo de vingança entre o grupo de Ellie e o de Abby, a filha de um dos médicos assassinados por Joel. A vingança vai destruindo tanto Abby quanto Ellie, assim como tudo e todos em sua volta. Isso fica mais evidente através dos flashbacks, que mostram a beleza do mundo, enquanto a atualidade mostra a destruição. Cada morte gera uma retaliação, formando um ciclo. O ciclo é interrompido somente quando elas desistem de buscar a vingança e seguem em frente. Gráficos e jogabilidade impressionantes, assim como novos infectados e desafios enfrentados, e uma trilha sonora incrível e personagens bastante cativantes. Expand

    About other rates, for people who wasnt even playing, you may not like the storyline, but it does not make a game bad. There is still a beautiful graphic, convenient interface, mechanics and scripts. While you are playing tlou2, you feel that, people who made it, also put they heart in the game. Its hours of h

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game… It managed to broke me and at the same time give reasons to live. I literally cried in the end because I really love Ellie and Joel and it hurts to see what happened to them. Their relationship meant so much to me and now they are just gone… I understand why Joel did what he did in part 1. Ellie was all he had, so he couldn't lost her like he lost Sarah. So he saved her. Killed for that. But you know what? I don't care. Because... I would do exactly the same thing. A little girl was alive. Even if it was just for a few years, she was happy. So for me, it was all worth it.
    I wanted Abby to be dead. But then Ellie would lost herself and I don’t want that for her. Joel wouldn’t want that for her. He always protected her from this cruel world and wanted her to stay that happy sarcastic kid. She gave him a light that he thought was gone forever. She gave that light to me, I learnt to enjoy small things, just to be happy with what I have. Cause one day it may just not be here anymore.
    TLoU showed me how brutal people can be. And how they can change. Once, at the end of the fight, there was one women left unarmed. She begged for mercy. But i killed her. I knew that if I let her live, she would shoot me in the back. Just one death of hundreds, but it really got me. It felt real. Like I really killed someone. At that moment I realised that people in that world don’t always want to be cruel. It’s like “kill or be killed”, you just don’t really have a choice. I will never forgive Abby, but I understand why she did what she did. So as I understand Ellie. She couldn’t let it go. She knew that everything is gone too far, but just couldn’t stop. And I’m happy that, eventually, she could.
    This is amazing game. I’ve never experienced anything like that. After part 2 I replayed the first game and all those moments with Joel, every their dialogue, it felt so nice seeing them together again, but also sad, cause I know how it’s gonna end…These games taught me to appreciate life and see the light even if I feel lost and empty in this **** dark around. So thanks, Naughty Dog, for giving me that.

    You people saying its a bad game are 1 of 2 things:
    1: havent played the full game and dont get the history and the message behind it all.
    2: felt angry because of the diversity of the game, which was natural and not at all forced. The game has a complex story that goes full circle, it represents hate and how far you can go to accomplish it, how blind revenge is and how the cicle of hate

Not always fun: it's dark, heavy, realistic journey with no excuse. But this is the game that blows your mind with several difficult questions. And the one I never forget is: what's wrong with humanity? Look at the users' reviews of this game, and you'll get the point. Is this game perfect? No. Is this game outstanding in all of its aspects? No! So, what? Don't listen to haters. Or you may end up alone like the last of those humans who survived in The Last of Us 2. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is the best content thus far to come out of 2020 and is unlikely to be beaten by any music, film or tv show for the remainder of the year.

    Those that had a problem with game, I hear you. But I also understand that those people are few and far between, and all the comments (both positive and otherwise) to come out on June 19th should be taken down. This story is LONG and the play through takes at least 30 hours to complete. I played it almost non-stop since Thursday at 11pm ct and didn’t finish it until Sunday morning around 4am. So all those people talking about the game’s ending being terrible or playing as Abby being a waste of time (which doesn’t happen until around hour 15, are not giving this beautiful game an honest review.

    I get it, you don’t want to see your games changed. This game will not change others. And by the way, the story and graphics are VIOLENT. All those people who are comparing those that like this game are social justice warriors seem to forget that. In my opinion, the only “snowflakes” are those upset that Joel died. I was too, but that is what makes the game’s story so vivid and real. Do you really think every one in an apocalyptic world is going to live happily ever after? Now those people are the social justice warriors.

    The game’s music was incredible. The score was revised and the play-through contains both original and licensed music which adds to the story. And for those worried about Joel’s death, the player gets several long moments to play as Ellie alongside Joel afterward that are perfectly written and performed. So PLEASE give this game a chance.

    Honestly, this game could have easily been split into a full game and a DLC (which I believe was their original intention). However, I’m so glad they chose to release everything together. Naughty Dog / Sony, please take these negative reviews with a grain of salt and continue to and don’t be dissuaded from creating more within TLOU universe because of these “haters” that wrote their reviews beforehand. Thankfully, I was able to avoid spoilers before my play-through, and I do think this the ideal way to play the game. Please find out who that jerk who betrayed you all and fire them immediately.

    Sorry, this review is coming out as angry, but I honestly am angry that so many are taking to these online forums to trash this game. And YouTubers making videos on why this game is bad are saying things that prove they’ve never played through the game. For those that have a problem with Joel’s death, is get it. Even for those that don’t like playing as a girl or a trans person, I definitely don’t get it, but I understand your opinion. But all of you that haven’t given this game the chance it deserves before writing a review, the thousands of people that spend millions of hours making this beautiful looking game a reality should certainly not have to suffer for your ignorance.

    Thank you, Naughty Dog, for creating an amazing game to help all of us get through this difficult time. We don’t deserve it, but we appreciate it.

    Character animations, dialogues, cutscenes, story, emotions, actors play, graphic, environment design, sound design - this game is just so well put together. At the moment, no other game can offer what TLOU2 does. TLOU2 finally brought the experience I had been waiting for years in the gaming industry. I am full of admiration that they had enough courage to create something like that.

    Easy 10/10 - people only need time to appreciate what ND did. Other piece of works, such as the heart of darkness or apocalypse now, were initially criticized by audiences or/and critics, and are now considered masterpieces. I feel like the same will happen with TLOU2.

    As a person who does not like political agendas being pushed into videogames (who almost canceled his pre-order because of the 'rumors'), I can say that this game is not 'the ultimate SJW game' or a 'golfing simulator'. The so-called agenda is only communicated through subtle ways (like notes that can be discovered in optional areas). References to 'social justice' are only made when they contribute to the story, and I did not notice anything odd about them.

    I will not spoil the story but I think it gets better as you progress further. The locations you visit throughout your journey are all expertly designed, and environmental storytelling plays a significant role in supporting the main themes. Just when you are sure you've beaten the game, the epilogue begins (with a play-time of about one and a half hours). The epilogue is also fantastic and it reminds me of Max Payne 3, which is another great game. I personally thought the ending was well-executed and would be upset if it was crafted in any other way.

    In short, you should not miss out on this experience. Even if you decide you don't like the story after finishing the game, the lowest realistic score you could give to this game is 7,5/10. The game does not deserve the 3.9 User Score it has now.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game already has well over twice the positive ratings as the original had overall ratings. It has 34k negative ratings, and most of those came out the day of release, 99% from people who heard what happens in the game and didn't like it, following the leaders of their youtube/twich groupthink.

    Gameplay: 10/10 - This is easily among the best gameplay the PS4 has to offer. Anyone discounting gameplay to give this game a 1 either didn't play the game or is so immeasurably butthurt, their review should be withdrawn from the calculation.
    Graphics: 9.5/10 - See above
    Story: 8/10 - The story isn't as good as the first game, but TLoU's story was probably the best in any game ever, so that is hard to beat. It was also a vastly different game, focused on one character's selfishness and restrained madness. Joel channeled his lack of ability to save his daughter and her death at the hands of humans to Elie and his general hatred for humanity. This made him choose Elie over humanity, despite not giving Elie a choice in the matter. Joel was selfish and wanted Elie to live to sate his own failures, and keep him from loneliness. This selfish and hateful act inevitably brings its comeuppance both in his demise and the turn to madness monstrosity that befalls the one he was so desperate to save. It is like what he held onto was a hatred and disgust for humanity, and that manifested in Elie by no agency of her own. People forget that the fireflies saved Elie from drowning. She was incapacitated when they took her to the surgery room to save humanity. Marlene knew Elie far better than Joel, and knew she would be more than willing to have sacrificed herself so that all those she lost would not have died in vain, so that there would be no more Rlieys killed by this plague.
    Balls: 15/10 - It is refreshing for a game to take such daring steps that they know will inevitably anger the gamer bro and white nationalist communities.

Beautifully designed and although it was not the game I expected, I was blown away. This, just like the first game is not a happy one, but life is not forgiving and this game reflects just bleak the world can be. It is an experience like no other and the wildest ride I have ever been on. Expand

To everyone who is complaining that essentially "elly is a woman" with progressively stupider lines of rationale especially those who complain about the desexualization of her appearance, go F yourselves.

To everyone who is complaining that essentially "elly is a woman" with progressively stupider lines of rationale especially those who complain about the desexualization of her appearance, go F yourselves. This is an incredible game with some of the best graphics I have ever seen. The lighting alone would get it to 5 stars especially in comparison with what is on the market in all other spheres. The gameplay is improved from the first game and in all ways it continues the tradition of being a masterful storytelling experience with a world colored as you walk through it. Yes, there is one early event which could have been done differently. However, this does not detract from the rest of the game. If you enjoy stealth games and the Last of Us, there is no reason that you cannot enjoy the Last of Us 2 full stop unless you are ostensibly a sexist pile of trash. I feel very strongly about this being a male who honestly does not give a **** which gender a character is as long as their story is intriguing.

    Thank you naughty dog for an incredible game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I just finished the game and I must say that for a long time I taught I was wrong on being by Naugthy Dog and Neil Druckmann side believing that the game is a masterpiece. There were moments, hours, that I felt betrayed by them, moments I felt angry with them and, believe me, I called them so many names... Oh man.. I really hated them.
    But, suddenly, and I don't know why I could see the human side of anyone. Without wanting to.. I started to feel empathy with "her". And then I started to call them "genius".
    Thanks for this, changed my life.

    Ich finde dieses Spiel hat soviel richtig gemacht in dem es seinen eigenen Weg geht. Die Art der Erzählung oder Darstellung von Emotionen ist Filmreif. Auch wenn mich Dina manchmal im aktiven Gameplay total nervt, ist dies meckern auf hohem Niveau.
    Die Gewalt ist ein großer Part der Geschichte und Ellies Entscheidungen sind nicht immer richtig, aber Sie ist 19 Jahre alt gesteuert von Wut,

    Die Gewalt ist ein großer Part der Geschichte und Ellies Entscheidungen sind nicht immer richtig, aber Sie ist 19 Jahre alt gesteuert von Wut, Rache und Lügen. Das Spiel ist super ungemütlich und das war ganz klar das Ziel von Naughty Dog. Dieses Spiel entspringt dem Mainstream und ist meiner Meinung nach der perfekte Schlussstrich der PlayStation 4 Ära.

    Vielen Dank Naughty Dog für eine grandiose Fortsetzung und die ganzen tollen Spiele die so wundervoll erzählt wurden.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The last of us part 2 is amazing. I've played the last of us part 1 more times than I can count, and I felt that part 2 was nothing like I expected and everything I did not know I wanted.

    Spoilers below. I understand certain criticisms of the game. But for the most part I think that the negative user reviews come from people who went into the game with preconceived opinions (because they read the leaks) and were never going to seriously play the game with an open mind. And honestly, I think any true fan of the TLOU made sure to avoid any info from leaks. I understand that Joel's death was unsettling, but that was the point. It was supposed to be unsettling. The last of us part 1 was full of surprises and deaths you didn't see coming. It wrestled with the with the topic of whether you, as Joel and ellie, were really any better than those that you were killing. This theme is further explored in part 2 by having you play as the character that you hate the most, and beginning to indetify with them. You see that their desire and passion for killing Joel is exactly the same as ellies motivation for killing Abby. You develop a bond with Lev not unlike the bond between Joel and ellie. I think that the individuals who hated this game basically just wanted the same exact experience that the last of us part 1 gave them. But considering that the characters have lived for 5 years since the events of the first game, it wouldn't make any sense for them to be exactly the same person that they were in part 1. They've grown and changed as people. I love that naughty dog took so many risks in creating this game, but when you take risks you are bound to trigger snow-flake gamers who don't want change. The bond that ellie and Joel have is beautiful, and seeing it further explored is what people wanted. I feel that this game still delivered that, just not in the form that people were expecting. The last of us games are games about love and fighting for those you love, and part 2 were centered around these themes just as much as part 1. And anyone who hated these games because of LGBT themes: well, I'm just not going to change your mind on that so I won't really address it. Basically, I loved this game. I thought that the gameplay was fantastic, fast paced, methodical, and just all around perfectly enjoyable. The story was amazing to experience. The atmosphere and tone were so utterly the last of us. Definitely buy this game. Haters gonna hate, but for once the critics got it right. It is insane how low of scores the butt hurt fans are giving the game. I think they are likely just doing this to tank the rating. I mean seriously, if you didn't like the game, that is fine, but 1 star? Seriously, even if you hated it, it obviously deserved better than 1 star. Fallout 76 is a game deserving of 1 star. You can't honestly say that this game is 1 star bad. If you gave it a 5 or less, I think you are drastically exaggerating any issues you had with this game. But that's all for my rant. Loved TLOU part 2. Play it with an open mind. You'll love it. Now I am just hoping for some multiplayer. Cuz damn I love factions from part 1.

    "When you find yourself in darkness, go toward the light."

    This is the message of both these games. The first delivers this in a beautifully straightforward, powerful way.

    "When you find yourself in darkness, go toward the light."

    This is the message of both these games. The first delivers this in a beautifully straightforward, powerful way. The follow up continues that discussion, but in a much more challenging, complex, and nuanced fashion.

    I could write pages about this experience. It is—without reservation—the boldest, most intelligent, most powerful example of the maturation of the blockbuster videogame medium. I was in absolute agony playing parts of this. It subverts your expectations, the way you feel about your own actions, and what I'll be expecting from all story driven games moving forward.

    Ignore the wall of negative reviews, especially the thousands posted on launch day. This is a 25-30 hour game, the posts dropped within hours of release clearly have an agenda. Having actually absorbed every inch of the game I can tell you their reactions are exactly what you suspect, and can be disregarded.

    This is an overwhelming game that will stretch, challenge, and break your heart. To be anything else would betray the legacy of the original. Bravo Naughty Dog. I'll be thinking about this for weeks.

Ellie makes decisions that you’re on board with while thinking emotionally that you begin to question as the story goes on. The fog of war and the mess that Ellie plants herself in the middle of make telling Abby’s side so vital. A game that my fiancée and I will play all over again eventually, enjoying every drop as much as the first play through, just as her and I did the first game. Expand

It's a joy to explore the game world and the combat are encounters are thrilling.

    Most of the criticism appears to be centered around the choices ND made on the story. Whether you personally wanted to the story to head in certain directions is very much up to personal preference, but you can't argue it's expertly done. I don't agree with every creative decision but the execution is second to none and a hell of ride for the 25 hours it takes to complete. To me this is the pinnacle of what video games can achieve as an art form compared with cinema, television and books. The best entertainment challenges the consumer, and that's exactly what ND have achieved with this game.

    Fitting that ND have now capped two console generations with a masterpiece. Bring on TLOU3 in 7 years?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Acabo de terminar Tlou II y es un buen juego.
    A mitad de la historia le daba una calificación de 6, pero conforme iba avanzando y sobre todo por la parte final del juego le doy un 8.5 No le doy una calificación más alta sobre todo por el trago amargo del principio del juego; pero aún así...
    Es muy criticado pero saben por qué?
    Porque estamos acostumbrados a esa burbuja o zona de comfort en donde tengamos un enemigo en común y en donde los finales terminen "bien" en el juego (aunque no es un mal final)
    El juego es crudo y hay cosas que no queremos que pasen, sucesos inesperados, situaciones amargas y tristeza por doquier, pero así es la vida, tomamos malas decisiones, pasan cosas trágicas, hay tristeza, etc. Creo que el juego tiene sus pros y sus contra, pero sin duda es un juego que te hace sentir un sin fin de emociones, y más para los que lo hemos esperado desde hace más de 6 años.
    Así es que no me arrepiento de jugarlo y mucho menos de comprarlo, al contrario, valió cada maldito centavo ❣️

    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]
