    The graphics is nice, its polished. I'll give you that.

    Other than those, its a complete drag playing the game over the point of simplistic story of trying to get you travel from A to B and repeat. The worst part is, it tries to play with your emotions with the developers thinking they are doing it great. It sucks. Its sad to see that naughty dog is ruining their own brand by trying

So I do understandt that game looks great and thank you for great work Naughty Dog team for that. But Who Who done this to story i love. Why? Why?

    Despite the early leaks I still went into this game hoping that Naught Dog didn't completely break what I loved about the first game; turns out I was bitterly disappointed.

Everything I loved about TLoU was butchered beyond belief (all within the first three or so hours), and the amount of hard-left political grandstanding was extremely immersion breaking. It's like the devs completely forgot what made TLoU special and interesting in the first place - although, I'm led to believe that this complete change in tone and direction was, unfortunately, intentional. The first game had nuance and characters which made you invested in the story, but there's none of that to be found in the sequel.

    It should be noted that the presentation is excellent. The artists at ND are absolute wizards at environmental art, and they are to be commended for that, but the gameplay doesn't improve greatly and it plays almost identically to the first game. Aside some minor traversal mechanics which honestly add nothing but padding, ND haven't improved or iterated in any meaningful ways.

    Overall I'm bitterly disappointed with TLoU2. The best part about the original was the relationship between Joel and Ellie, and both of those things are gone. What's replaced those characters are thoroughly unlikable shells which serve nothing more than to push a horribly written narrative, full of explotiation and plot holes. I refunded this game after completing it in roughly 26 hours, and now I'm writing this.

    Do yourself (and the industry) a favour and skip it. Watch some reviews. Read the millions of comments. Caveat emptor.

    The first time (out of control): is the director a fool? I just want to kill Abby. Don't wash her white. I don't care what penis she has. You have to force me to control this **** **** Are you ****
    The second time (calm down): Abby, it's really miserable. I know why you didn't kill Ellie. Although the hatred of killing her father was so unforgettable, when you killed Joel at the beginning, you finally said that you didn't want to be like them (Joel). And you know the fact that Ellie is immune. Isn't it his father's ultimate wish to end this plague? But I still can't accept that Ellie doesn't kill you. Don't ask why, I just don't accept !

    The third time (wake up): tlous2 is so amazing that it is undoubtedly one of the most competitive games in 2020. At the same time, it is also the only game in which all chaotic emotions can be truly injected into the hearts and minds of players with the development of human beings. It is more real than the body feeling game of Wii and the experience brought by VR and AR. my spirit has collapsed and my price is high The values have also collapsed. I can't tell who is right and who is wrong. I only know that the last survivors have lost everything around them. The only reason they live is that they are so lucky. In front of nature, human beings are so unbearable that they will not repent. No one is the winner. And Abby and ally finally let go of each other may represent a very small number of people in that environment Still keep that trace of human nature of the survivors Isn't this the experience of the end of the world?

Naughty Dog did a great job with the graphics, but the plot isn't very well thought out, in some moments you want to scream:"What the hell is this?!".

This game is masterful in its storytelling, technical achievement, smooth gameplay, and art direction. Most of all this game did something that no other art form could do to this extent when it comes to building empathy for another human being. Hats off to the Naughty Dog team!

    I loved this game... until I didn't.

    The Last of Us 2 does a lot of things right. The graphics are amazing, the gameplay is improved from the first game (particularly through the options you are given to get around the "battlefield"). I enjoyed the music and the game leaves plenty of optional collectibles/letters/pictures etc that you can rummage for to help immerse yourself in the game
    I loved this game... until I didn't.

    The Last of Us 2 does a lot of things right. The graphics are amazing, the gameplay is improved from the first game (particularly through the options you are given to get around the "battlefield"). I enjoyed the music and the game leaves plenty of optional collectibles/letters/pictures etc that you can rummage for to help immerse yourself in the game world if you choose, with the usual level of detail you can expect from Naughty Dog.

    Here is the part where I explain why the heck I gave the game such a low score when it has all of this going for it.

    The thing about Metacritic User Reviews is that they are, in general, based on the user's overall experience with the game. Many serious critics will grade different sections of a game individually and then average them out, but we aren't getting paid, we can just say how we "felt" about a game. Just like a game doesn't have to be absolutely flawless to be given a 10, a low score doesn't necessarily mean the game was an unplayable mess either.

    Which brings me to the story. **** I will try to avoid major spoilers, but obviously you will pick up a bit here or there so this is a heads up*****

    For the first half of the game you play as Ellie, who is trying to get revenge on a group of people who have wronged her. Like in the first game, you are typically working with an AI companion (there are a couple who join her at various points). On the whole this worked well. The characters and dialogue were pretty interesting and you had a clear goal to work towards while you mow down zombies and bandits etc.

    Just as you are nearing the end of your journey, and the payoff you had been building towards, the game pulls the rug out from under you and makes a complete U-turn.

    Suddenly the clock is rolled back to the beginning, but this time you are Abby, a member of a rebel group called the WLF, and one of the antagonists Ellie is after. This change-up lets you see the story from the "bad-guys" perspective, helping you understand what was going on behind the scenes while you were playing as Ellie. It also goes on for WAY. TOO. LONG.

    I feel like the developers gambled a bit here. How well the game lands for you seems to depend almost entirely upon how you feel about Abby, because like it or not, you are stuck with her for half the game. Unfortunately for me - I did not.

    Abby is a supremely unlikable character to start, and the game doesn't really evolve her character enough to get over it. Sure her goals are understandable, but that doesn't make her intriguing, it just makes her not crazy. Billed as her group's "top killer" she lives up to that rep throughout her arc, murdering just about anything she comes across and callously chuckling to herself at the misfortune of others when she reads through those depressing collectible notes left behind by unfortunate zombie victims.

    Eventually Abby does something nice for someone, out of guilt, but it really isn't nearly enough to wipe away the awfulness she started with and certainly wasn't enough to get me on her side over Ellie, who we've spent 1.5 games (plus DLC!) getting to know.

    The end result is a whole half of a rather long game that is an absolute slog to get through. My desperate need for closure kept me playing to finally see the ending the game had been holding hostage on me, but I wasn't enjoying myself.

    I love story driven games and I enjoy when they make me "feel" things. I don't believe games need to be happy all the time to be a good story. My issue was, I wasn't really feeling much at all besides boredom. I just wanted Abby's part to be over. If there had been a button prompt that gave me the option of skipping the gameplay entirely to just zip through Abby's cut-scenes I would have taken it. The game literally put me to sleep at one point, in the middle of the day, and it was such a stark contrast to the first half of the game, where I didn't want to put my controller down to stop the ride.

    Ultimately this is why I ranked it so low. This game made me miserable for roughly 20 hours to the point where I was mostly playing out of stubbornness. What good are those wonderful graphics, the work and detail put in, if in the end, I'd rather NOT be playing the game?

    This doesn't mean You personally won't like the game, but I certainly can't recommend it.

I have already finish The game and I really enjoy it, it’s something different because you don’t expect a lot of things that happens in here like Joel’s dead or like Ellie don’t kill Abby but at the end you understand the message that the game gives to you, maybe it’s a cliche but that leaves you saying, damn Ellie lost everything because she don’t leave the idea to take revenge until she understands that the best it’s to leave everything that happened before because Joel’s not coming back, we appreciate him because we knew him for a while but he is not a good guy, the things he do (that we understand why he do it) takes him at the end and return to him as Abby that kill him. What I’m saying it’s that the game is really good the matter with the people it’s that they don’t understand the whole story and the meaning of it. For me it’s one of my favorite game that I have played in my whole life. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. SPOILER: Please do not read this review if you haven't finished this game. This game has the worst ending and the most annoying character called Dina which happened to be a pretty important character in the game. I think many of us played this game for hours with the mindset based on the pre release trailer or encounter between Abby and Joel. I couldn't believe how horribly Naughty Dog ended the game. It was just very disappointing to invest so many hours in this game. What was the purpose of this game? Ellie didn't do anything to respond appropriately to the brutality showed by Abby. Ellie instead kept taking beating by Abby. This game has the weakest main character. I think Abby's character was much stronger and meaningful than Ellie's character. Such a disappointment. I have never given 1 star to any games before, but after finishing Ghost of Tsushima I am happy with 1 star rating for this game. I hope Naughty Dog would learn something from Sucker Punch. Last of Us II is the ONLY game that I have ever pre-ordered. One thing is for sure, I will never pre-order any Naughty Dog's game. It's a lesson learned. Given such a terrible Metacritic User Score for this game, I would say majority of the people are disappointed with Naughty Dog. I hope in the future people wait to buy games by Naughty Dog until enough user reviews are in and then buy if the reviews are good. I am NOT going to spend my money on some crappy games by Naughty Dog. Expand

    The Last Of Us Part 2 это игра явно не для всех. Игра только для взрослых не зря же написано На дисках 18+ это беснуется как и ультра насилием так и взрослыми темами которые не все поймут. Обзор: Игра на 10 балов хотя бы и за того что это игра очень многих расзаботчиков выжала как апельсиновый сок.
    Игра начинается с того что Джоэл говорит Томи что он натворил в Джексоне, он это сделал потому что не ему не Элли не дали другого выбора. Потом мы играем и за Элли и видим как она живёт как типичный тинейджер. Потом она идёт на вылазку там убивают Джоэла и и за этого не не на видить всЮ игру это тупо и не логично, но вы понимаете людям не зашла Эбби и все думают что она транс увы нет она Гетеросексуальная девка просто очень сильно накачена и у неё в комнате есть протеины и вот как она так накачалась. Эбби логично вписана в историю она накаченная видно что много качалась, но в конце она похудела так так была в плену и это надо было для контраста. И что мне ещё сказать игра самая детализированная, самая графонистая, и красивая АНАЛОГОВ ЭТОЙ ИГРЕ НА ДАННЫЙ МОМЕНТ НЕТ В ЭТОМ ПОКОЛЕНИИ И ВРЯТЛЕ БУДЕТ.

    СОВЕТУЮ ВСЕМ ПО ИГРАТЬ ЭТУ ИГРУ САМИМ. ТАК КАК ИГРА ЗАШЛА БОЛЬШИНСТВУ.

    CONS: Despite the efforts of Naughty Dog to make its story convincing, TLoU2 is disappointing because its narrative and character development pale in comparison to that of TLoU1. TLoU2 tries too hard to convince the players to love its characters and its message, "Revenge is wrong." Where TLoU1 allowed the message and its characters to develop naturally through dialogue and subtext, TLoU2 seemed to force its message and characters too immediately upon the audience. TLoU1's story felt gradual and alluring, whereas TLoU2's story was standard.

    TLoU2 is impressive as a standalone game, but it's nothing special when compared to TLoU1.

    The story, the AI, the animation work, the improved gameplay mechanics, the atmosphere, the sick feeling you sometimes get when killing NPCs ... this is a special game.

    MGS2 had an eerily similar reaction on internet forums to TLOU2 when it came out. The fact that some people hated MGS2 and overreacted didn't change the fact that it was a great game. [Links omitted per site rules]

    But back then it wasn't possible for grifters with a political agenda to rally an army of like-minded to spam a single site with thousands of negative reviews (zeros ... c'mon) upon a game's release. Logistically, it was impossible for the 3.3 user score to be a genuine reaction based on actually playing the game.

    TheQuartering and the other Youtubers that have attacked this game haven't even played it as they have "reliable sources" (a small handful of mixed reviews). They're not an intellectually honest group of people: "The Last Of Us 2 Sales PLUMMET 80% & Games FLOOD The Used Market!" This is an almost identical sales drop as Uncharted 4 which is not unusual for an AAA release. I knew they would cherry pick this data (they're grifters) and I honestly feel bad for anyone stupid enough to fall for their crap.

    TLOU2 is a brilliant game. Not everyone has to agree but the reaction to the game really has been absurd to anyone with more than a few brain cells. If someone hasn't intentionally spoiled this game on you (unlikely), go in fresh and keep an open mind.

    It's a technical masterpiece with very good gameplay and a polarising story.
    I think that the themes and atmosphere of this are very much aligned with and build off the original. It's not for everyone for sure. The Abby section dragged on just a couple of hours too long for me. Especially since we left it on such a cliffhanger before that...
    It questions your loyalties and offers differing perspectives. Each character is flawed. Some more than others. But ultimately the game left me feeling dirty, conflicted, emotionally wrecked, with a touch of acceptance to wrap it up. Not quite as stellar as the first, but damn near close.

It makes no sense to me and makes me loose faith in their scoring system. Graphics alone is only a small portion of a game. The gameplay to me was not good. It felt the same as the old game and extremely frustrating at times. It just doesn’t feel like a 2020 game. Understandable for a lower budget game, but not for one with a high budget like this. The background music was not on par with the original game. When I played the original, the guitar made me feel more emotions when playing the game. I would have liked to see more of that in this game, especially with the few scenes they showed with Joel giving the guitar to Ellie.
    The story I didn’t care for at all. This is my opinion. Killing off the main character maybe not the best choice. This could have paid off if they introduced better characters, which they didn’t. I didn’t care for any of the new characters. The story was just not even close to how good it was in the first game. I found myself checking my phone during cut scenes, where in the first, I was glued to the screen. All in all, not a terrible game, but definitely not great. The first was one of the best games I’ve ever played. Ive played it multiple times. It was revolutiionar. This one I wont replay. To be honest, I debated not finishing it many times. For the time and budget available.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Yes, I played the game. I was the first of my friends to beat it.

    Nothing the game was trying to do with its story went over our heads. The early death of Joel was meant to give the player a sense of loss similar to what Joel experienced in the beginning of the first game. The dual narratives were meant to challenge the player’s attachment to hero figures. (Although they had to heavily retcon the doctor in the first game to make Abby sympathetic.) Abby and Lev are parallel to Joel and Ellie. Abby and Owen sympathizing with an opposing faction is parallel to the player sympathizing with Abby. The game makes us fight Abby at her weakest and most harmless to challenge our concept of revenge. Ellie ends up living out her greatest fear of being alone as a punishment for seeking revenge.

    Seriously, we get it. It’s really not that deep, and it's silly to pretend that it is so you can conveniently accuse disappointed fans of not "understanding" it. If the writing in this game is so brilliant, why was retconning even necessary? Why was the doctor suddenly a noble hero in a squeaky clean surgery room and why did they canonize the specific player choice of Joel stabbing him in the neck when many players, including myself, shot him in the leg? This was a clear attempt to make Joel err more on the side of evil to get the player to sympathize with Abby. The ending of the game went from a fascinating moral ambiguity to "Joel definitely bad" because the writers, who are supposedly too sophisticated for us to comprehend, couldn't think of any other way to make Abby sympathetic. In addition to disregarding what made the TLOU's ending interesting, TLOU2 reduces Ellie's immunity from a major plot point to a simple character trait, and throws away Joel and Ellie's relationship, which was what gave the first game its appeal to begin with. Joel's death and the absence of his dynamic with Ellie creates a void that the game then tries to fill with characters we have no reason to care about, and this emptiness made me feel as though I was playing strictly for game completion.

    What's sad is that the first game already left a perfect foundation for a sequel. The rising tensions between Joel and Ellie and the hanging question of what to do about Ellie’s immunity would have made a far more compelling story and climax. There would have been just as much potential for plot twists and subverting expectations as Part 2's story. Instead, these things were reduced to brief flashbacks in favor of a forced, retcon-fueled revenge tale does the bare minimum to connect itself to the TLOU universe. But apparently I’m an entitled gamer for expecting a sequel to be a sequel and not a complete tangent.

    The game is a strong 6 for me at best. Graphics, animations, gameplay, and level design are well done. I could understand people giving it a 7 or an 8. Hell, I can even understand going higher if it was rewritten as a new IP with new characters. But there is no way in absolute hell that this game is a 10/10 AS A SEQUEL by any standard.

    Ok, I finished this game a few weeks ago and drafted a few reviews. I cannot express how much I thought about this game since I finished it. I was going to make a massive review but the I decided to abridge it based on a Reddit comment I made. Here is the (somewhat) short and sweet review:

    I played the game and loved it the whole way through, the graphics and gameplay are universally admired by all and for good reason too. The stealth is fun in a way that is hard to describe, it’s not rooted in realism, it takes a much more videogamey approach where you can just slaughter enemies to your heart’s content. The combat is always frantic, especially when up close when you have few resources and are fighting for your life. The graphics are spectacular. However they managed to squeeze this much beauty into a 7 year old console astounds me. The remastered on PS5 with ray tracing will probably be the benchmark for next gen graphics for a few years at least. It makes Red Dead 2 pale in comparison. The environments are beautiful and realistic, not just the basic cover filled hallways and open areas we see in most linear games. The game even branches out in places letting you explore areas of Seattle. But the story... you see, there’s one major character in the game who gets quite a lot of time, some people didn’t connect with this character, which entirely ruined the story for them(which I would completely understand) I was lucky enough to like the character and therefore the story. The game was always meant to be decisive and this meant that a lot of people felt let down by it. You can’t really tell if it’s for you or not without playing it yourself so don’t listen to the “SJW” fanboys or the “incel” haters! Thanks for making this game Naughty Dog :)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There are good games, and there are bad games. Then there is this game.

    I must congratulate Naughty Dog on it. In terms of how it looks it's fantastic. On how it plays, it's.. iffy. On the Storyline........... wow, I just dont understand what you were thinking.

    So, let me explain Character in Story.

    In the original, we have an Anti-Hero. Joel defines this by being the hero of our story but by being pretty much amoral... that's to say he clearly believes whatever he does is right, screw everything else. Secondly, we have his Sidekick and/or the secondary character, Ellie. It's our hero's job to protect her. So, what we psychologically learn from this is that we care ABOUT Joel, we care FOR Ellie.

    Now, I'm not launching into some anti-feminist/trans/woke (delete as appropriate) rant here, but the problem is you've given us a lead character that we care FOR. I, as a fan of Naughty dog for many many years now, was fully aware that this game was to be played as Ellie, and that was fine because I enjoyed Left Behind (oh, to the weirdos who didnt know Ellie was gay.... play more games/do your research). However, I need more from a hero in a Story than "oh, you were the person I looked after in the last one". So why should I give a **** about Ellie? Because I'm supposed to? Yeah, not how it works. Perhaps this game should have been the next one, because all the flashback stuff suggests you could have built an entire game with Joel and Ellie where it becomes more comfrotable to play with Ellie and show that she is now fully self reliant..... but no. Here we are, the girl can now stealth her way though 99% of the game (a mechanic that makes zero sense but w/e), well thats just fantastic. Thing is, everybody loved Ellie in the original, but we all knew she needed Joel, and that's what we were there for. What you have created here is a Rey Skywalker level Mary Sue.

    So is the idea "hey, they care about Joel, lets kill him and then the player will want revenge, and they'll definitely want to get it as Ellie"? Well, F that. The only character to logically put you in control of is Tommy, but no, Mary Sue to the rescue.

    Anyway, the other lead. Yeah, she killed Joel, aka THE ONLY CHARACTER WE ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT. So why in gods name should we care? The guilt trip of "oh, Joel killed her father"........ please, please, please understand this: The Character we care ABOUT did everything to protect the character we care FOR. So we (the player, the Joels) do not care who we killed or if they had children, it did not and does not matter to us, Ellie matters. These consequences are nothing to us, so it's no wonder people hated Abby from the get go. Regardless of her image and so on, whatever she looked like, we would not like her because, oh, *Spoiler Alert* she killed Joel.

    Also, Abby's whole story is boring. Like.... chick flick boring, like aunt Patty and Selma's holiday slideshow boring, like the Giant machine that dug the Mont Blanc tunnel: BORING. All just sideways angst. And then there's the..... ummm, "sex scene?" (Could only have been more hideously uncomfortable if Owen spat on his fingers to lube up). You guys know kids play video games right? And parents buy kids video games and dont care what they are right? And hugely popular games are always wanted by kids? And zombie killing games are wanted by kids? All these small children, exposed to that? I'll just say it: "Naughty Dog, Bad Dog, Bad Bad Dog".

    The Scars were stupid, pointless and designed to be in the way (hey, just put zombies in the way, we'll care more)

    The Rat King was cool, but the battle was exhaustingly repetitive.

    Aaand finally. Don't make people kill dogs. Just don't. It's unwanted. Zombie dog? Sure. Healthy dog? No thanks.

    Take it as a lesson learned. Bring back Joel. That lovely window of time between his daughter dying and the Boston QZ is ripe for some zombie killing and army man murdering. A rampage of bittersweet joy. Oh. Hope. Hope is a whore.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us Part 1 was a game that's easy to love. Throughout the entirety of the story, you bond and form relationships with witty, funny, noble and in general, lovable characters. The game is about love and family. After all, especially the end is about putting love above everything else.

    The Last of Us Part 2 is a game that's not easy to appreciate or even like. It's the polar opposite of the first game. As creative director Neil Druckman himself said it; Part 2 is about hate.

    In Part 2 you come to face the consequences of your actions in Part 1. The death of Joel at the hands of Abby, a new character, and her friends, neither of whom we know anything about.

    In a feat of hate and revenge, Ellie promises to avenge Joel and kill every last of one the people involved in his tragic death. Here, even the player is involved, as previously we had formed great bonds with these characters, and we can empathize with them and their loss. What is hard to do, and the reason many people don't like the game, is the second part of the game. Where you instead play as Abby, and see their part of the story. Through gameplay and cleverly written flashbacks, we get to know Abby's side of things. The game forces you to analyze and challenge everything you know about Ellie and Joel. As we get to experience first hand the atrocities Ellie and especially Joel committed in Part 1, we start to realize how everything is connected. However, not everyone will like this game. As Troy Baker said, you have to approach Part 2 with an open mind. You have to allow Naughty Dog to tell the story they wrote for these characters instead of expect the one you want to hear.

    While some people will be able to do this, others won't. They will not be able to empathize with Abby and her group, and will not be able to accept that Joel and Ellie's actions had rightfully deserved consequences.

    One thing I know for sure, though, is that the people who really take the time to appreciate the game with an open mind will love the game.

    They will be able to appreciate the level of detail the developers put into this absolute masterpiece. From the audio and visuals to the storytelling. Naughty Dog truly remains at the top of their game with this story. Controversial ending explained for people who hate it because they didn't get it: In the epilogue, Ellie's wounds have healed, she's not carrying any weapons with her, she's wearing her Jackson boots from the beginning of the game, and most importantly: she's wearing Dina's bracelet. These are all subtle hints that Ellie actually got her happy ending. She was able to forgive Abby, when she saw Joel and herself in Abby and Lev. She was able to forgive Joel, as in the final moments of the game she finally understood why he did what he did. And most importantly, she learned to forgive herself and find inner peace. This is why she leaves the guitar at the end. She's finally letting Joel go.

    Furthermore, Dina's bracelet and her wearing her Jackson boots, as well as her now healed fingers indicate that she might now be living happily with Dina, JJ and Jesse's parents in Jackson (theory supported by Jesse's parents' letter) and is only visiting the farmhouse to get closure.

    TLOU2 is an incredible sequel. It doesn’t have the magic that you experience playing TLOU1 for the first time, but it makes up for that with a fantastic story. The characters are complicated and diverse, and by the end of the game you will feel broken hearted and frustrated. That’s how you know it’s a great story.

    The gameplay and graphics are ok but the plot line is laughable at best - serious believability and consistency issues in writing. Don't buy.

    The story, characters, are crap. The only thing redeeming about this game is the graphics. Such a far FAR fall from the first one. It is such a shame since I have been looking forward of this game for so long. Should have just left the game alone.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Like many others, I loved the first game and had no doubt that Naughty Dog would deliver another great Game. Unfortunately that was by far not the case, furthermore they ruined the series.

    We had everything, but instead of evolving the characters and the story, they just had to push their agenda with everything they could.

    One of the most loved characters from the first game gets killed off almost immediately after the game starts and sadly in such an unbelievable stupid wayu, only for them to have their little "revenge" story. Instead of talking about the new enemies or what just happened, the characters rather talk about their relationships or how the kiss was/what rating they would get or how they would love to smoke something right now.

    The new side characters will CONSTANTLY talk to you about their feelings and stand in the way most of the time, which ruins the experience of the world because they only react if enemies are nearby, which means you don't have to be carefully if they aren't

    Gameplay wise, you can go prone now, that's about it. Years in the making and that's everything innovative? Besides the revenge story, their isn't really much to talk about, sure you have these new fractions you never heard of before, but besides going on a rampage, ellie isn't too interested.

    Besides the awesome graphics and the great voice acting there isn't really much positive left of the Masterpiece The Last Of Us 1 was....

    Abby's segment was by far the interesting thing about the game, after playing and get to know more of her, I really liked Abby more than Ellie, which I could have never imagined before playing the game.

    You just won't recognize Joel and Ellie anymore, because Naughty Dog changed almost everything you loved about them.

    Just really poor character development in order to fit the new agenda.

    All Men act stupid or don't see the trap they easily avoided in part One.

    Overall I really wished I never played this mess, 30+ hours and all that is left I disappointment how you can kill a franchise like that.

    Ps. Declaring all negative feedback as Blind Hate is just ridicules and shows how blind and arrogant Naughty Dog has become.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Comincio scusandomi per non aver scritto quanto segue in inglese, ho voluto comunque lasciare una mia opinione visto com'è stato maltrattato, secondo me, senza delle valide motivazioni.

    Secondo la mia opinione TLOU 2 è il gioco migliore di questa generazione, almeno per i titoli da me giocati.
    Molto ben fatto a livello tecnico, grafica, animazione, ambientazioni, game play, secondo me tutto ben fatto, personalmente dico che quei POCHI difetti che ho trovato non hanno assolutamente dato peso alla totalità del titolo.

    Narrativamente è stato una bomba emotiva, è vero la morte Joel a inizio gioco è una botta che non mi aspettavo, è vero anche però che la morte di un personaggio così amato ti fa veramente entrare in empatia con Ellie, cosa che personalmente non credo mi sarebbe successa con la morte di Dina.
    Il dover interpretare anche Abby credo sia stata una bella cosa perché comunque è bello anche potersi trovare dall'altra parte e vedere le reali motivazioni che muovono l'antagonista per poi capire che cattivo in realtà non è, personaggio al quale si augura la morte a inizio gioco e alla fine speri che Ellie possa risparmiarlo dato che a fine gioco Abby per Lev è quel che era Joel per Ellie.

    Per quanto riguarda le "bugie" raccontate da naughty dog nei vari trailer prima dell' uscita del gioco a me non hanno dato fastidio anzi, per me che l'ho giocato al day one è stata una doppia sorpresa, la prima dovuta al fatto che ovviamente era la prima volta che giocavo al titolo e la seconda dovuta al fatto che quel che sapevo era sviato, personalmente l'ho trovata una scelta coraggiosa ma a me ha divertito e sorpeso molto.

    Spenderò anche qualche parola riguardo alle critiche sterili che secondo me sono state fatte al gioco.
    Credo che il voto più onesto che poteva ricevere da qualcuno che non ha apprezzato la storia fosse 8, non capisco realmente cosa è stato trovato di così scandaloso a livello tecnico per potergli dare voti così bassi, se lo scandalo maggiore è dovuto alla storia (comunque credo sia fuori discussione che sia ben narrata) allora credo che certa gente dovrebbe scriversi le proprie fanfiction e tenersele come canoniche dato che a quanto pare in un video gioco, in un film o in un libro i vari autori dovrebbero solo scrivere storie comode giusto perché una bella fetta di pubblico non riceve quello che si aspetta.

    E' la prima volta che mi decido di fare una recensione quindi spero di essermi spiegato bene.
    Se per caso qualcuno si è sentito offeso da quello che ho scritto mi scuso ma il bisogno di esprimere quello che pensavo era forte.

    Never was a big fan of the first game but this one really doesn't do the characters any justice. The gameplay isn't bad but the story is horrible. They should have learned from GOT that subverting expectations isn't always a good thing. Also with the BS copyright strikes to youtube channels like Geeks and Gamers they deserve the criticism

    The graphics and the story are wonderful, I would say that TLOU 2 is better than TLOU 1, and it's all the truth. The life is not always happy, like this game, don't hope to find in this a game with flowers and Mickey Mouse dancing in a rainbow. TLOU 2 takes risks and it is a game that will be remember through the years.

They didn't play the game, and thus have no idea how amazing it is. They only came here because Metacritic doesn't have any account linking to prove you've actually played the game (like Steam does -- this should be mandatory), and all the crybabies who saw the leaks review bombed it, hoping it wouldn't become PS4's bestseller. Well guess what, it's been nearly 2 months now and people are STILL talking about TLOU Part II.

    Now, let's get to the good stuff. The review!

    This is by far the best video game ever created for the PS4. The visuals outshine that of The Last of Us. The actual details (if you make Ellie go prone repeatedly on cement, she'll have scrapes on her forearms and wrists). The story is really great (although I feel like they could have made the game longer to expand on a few things). But overall I thought this was the best game I have ever played on PS4 from Naughty Dog. SO good in fact that I played this game 3 times in a row (not only to get the platinum, which was easier without factions), but because I just love the whole Last of Us world (and I waited 7 years to be with Ellie in her world again).

    I HIGHLY recommend this game. The quality outshines any other game out there. Naughty Dog created new tech just for realistic EYES!

    Do yourself a favor and buy this game. The story hits hard, but that's okay.

    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]
