    This is one strongest games ever made, just as the first game closed the PS3 and made us look to the ps4 the game does the same today for the ps5. Don't believe all the day 1 hate.

    I'm unemployed trucker from Poland and this game give me strength to stay in home and experience this beautiful story. Neil Druckmann is probably best writer, I love him so much. LGBT part was also nice, little touch but really nice surprise.

    Sensacional, es muy complicado innovar a día de hoy. Al acabarlo te deja pensativo, cuestiones morales, el bien, el mal, la venganza y no sabes a que personaje apoyar. La que se han marcado!!

    I am leaving a 10. I don't usually review games but considering the dubious user score this game is receiving I feel like weighing in is the correct option. This game is a masterpiece. Everything, from the story to the gameplay is exceptional. You may disagree with some choices Naughty Dog decided to follow while making this game but it's undeniable that everything feels intentional and well constructed. You may disagree with the decision of killing Joel in the first act but you'd be damn sure saying that Neil Druckmann knew what he was doing when he decided what would happen to Joel. The entire plot revolves around his death, even at thimes when it seems like the game is drifting away from him, you still can see Joel's footprint in whatever the surviving characters are doing. The first Last of Us, like the name suggests, is a deep dive into the human nature and its title is symbolic in Joel's decision of sacrificing humanity for a little girl he'd grown into as a father figure. A selfish act, but a human act nontheless. "Us" is the humanity in Joel's last decision. What makes me feel like this game is such a masterpiece as the first one was is the fact that the spirit of an imperftect humanity that defined the first chapter of the game can be felt massively on this second chapter. If what drove the first game was the spirit of love which could push a man into screwing everyone else for the love of someone else, what drives the second one is hate. Visceral and disgusting hate. A dark, sad and sometimes too invadent part of the human nature that defines us as much as we are defined by love.The story-telling is great. While playing the game I felt numerous times like I didn't know where the story was going to take me, or why some characters wanted to do some things that seemed so bizzare at first, but during the entire playthrough the storyline unfolded more and more to the end, where things clicked right into place. What makes this game so divisive is also what makes this game so great. Some people hate this game entirely because of Abby, wich is entirely understandable, after all she violently kills the father figure you'd learn to love in the first chapter and it seems like the game is pushing you towards liking her, almost if the game hopes we'd forgotten what she did to Joel. But the thing is, the game (and that's the brilliance of this game) doesn't care if you like Abby. To a certain extent this second Last of Us doesn't even care if you like Joel, Dina, Lev or even Ellie. The point of this game is to show you the humanity of each and every one of them. What selfish, dumb and entirely human flaw drives each and every one of them. You're in the crossfire of humans being humans, and the symbolism of the butterfly on Ellie's arm is surreal. Joel could have saved humanity if he'd let his "daughter" die. Abby could have never killed Joel if only she didn't let herself be blinded by the spirit of revenge. Abby's decisions are what eventually led to her faith if she'd never killed Joel, she never would have met Lev and Yara, finding the love sentiment that defined Joel himself. Every character is brilliantly defined and feels like a real human being doing what you or me would have done. You can find love, hate and sadness in every character of the game, but that's the beauty of The Last of Us, there are no good or bad guys, everyone is just a "guys". The characters are three dimensionals in every aspect of themselves. After all is still a game, and what a great game. Naughty dog has a track record of making technically excellent games and this game is no exception. The physics, the graphics, the shooting, the animations and the musics are top notch in this game. Killing a human being is incredibly real and gruesome. It's awesome but also disgusting, it's great. There are times where the game is outright scary, where you are either terrified of fighting humans or infecteds. The AI is phenomenal, and the interaction system between NPCs is surreal.
    The new movement system also makes this game feel like it's from another planet if compared to the first one. I played it on the intermediate difficulty and it still felt more difficult than the first one on Hard mode. Still, the game does have some flaws, the transition between Ellie's story and Abby's story in the middle is a tad chaotic, and it leaves you wondering maybe too much what's happening to Ellie, Dina and Tommy, when the game is focusing on something else entirely. Surely this is one of the things that increase the replay factor of this game. Also, speaking of flaws, I did see a couple of glitches and tiny bugs here and there throughout the playthrough, things that would have slipped away on any other game, but the quality of this game is so high that these little defects stick like a sore thumb. In conclusion, this game IS a masterpiece. It isn’t perfect, but no masterpiece is perfect. I highly recommend this game.    … Expand

    Some folks may legitimately not like how events transpire early in the game. But, they are necessary to drive the narrative. This is a post-apocalyptic world. It's not all sunshine and rainbows. There are evil people in the world who are going to do evil things. As one other user put it... "This is not Ellie and Joel's road trip part 2".

    That said, even if you didn't like the story, this game does not deserve a 0 score. Or anything below a 5 in my opinion. There's just so much that is outstanding in this game besides the story.    … Expand

The graphics and attention to detail are spot on for Naughty Dog. By the end cut scene I felt as exhausted as Ellie. Playing as Abby really grew on me. The characters in her life felt real, complex, and three dimensional. I saw all the cutscene leaks that came out in April and I was not prepared for how truly out of context they turned out to be. The cut scenes have so much weight after you’ve been through the journey of playing to get there. This is a one of a kind game that is a brilliantly executed story.… Expand

    Jugabilidad: se siente la evolución desde la primera parte, brindando grandes opciones para enfrentar las situaciones, ya sea de forma sigilosa o totalmente como una maquina de matar.

    Gráficos: Me parece que las imágenes hablan por sí mismas, una gran forma de cerrar la generación actual, todas las texturas con un gran nivel de detalle, incluso se puede apreciar las texturas en la ropa, y los rostros de los personajes sumamente expresivos.

    Sonido: Al igual que el primero juega un papel importante aqui, no solo por el soundtrack que te ira acompañando para cada situación, también es importante para poder detectar a los enemigos (ellos podrán hacer lo mismo si haces ruido al correr o pisar objetos como cristales rotos), o incluso grandes detalles como poder abrir las cajas fuertes guiandote por el sonido.

    Diseño: Este es un punto que merece la pena destacar, todos los escenarios por diseño permiten explotar todas las situaciones desde diferentes ángulos, y está de una forma excelente retratado la union de restos de edificios y calles en conjunto a la naturaleza, mostrando estampas post apocalipticas muy pocas veces vistas.

    Historia: Este es uno de los puntos más atacados, pero es importante resaltar que no porque sea mala, desde antes del lanzamiento se habia comentado que dividiria a los usuarios y me parece que eso es acertado, es mundo que siempre ha buscado retratar de forma realista y cruda el mundo, por lo que no esperen historias típicas del héroe donde toda su vida tiene tintes magníficos y heroicos, muestra la realidad de supervivientes en un mundo cruel, y a lo largo de todo el juego se construye una narrativa acerca de lo venganza y lo mucho que pueden destruir sus consecuencias, el final es cierto no agradara a todos, pero no por eso es malo, al avanzar y vivir toda la historia para llegar al punto final va en concordancia con todo lo ocurrido, por lo que es una historia que tiene claro sus objetivos y los cumple, que a cada uno le agradece o los entienda dependera mucho de que tipo de usuarios seas.

    Conclusión: El juego es una experiencia que vale la pena, por todos los apartados podrás experimentar diferentes emociones, y que a cada uno podrá llevar al limite de diferentes maneras, si eres usuario de ps4 y lo empiezas con la mente abierta a disfrutar y poder entender la motivacióin de cada uno de sus personajes y porque hacen lo que hacen, sera mucho más gratificante de lo que puedas esperar.    … Expand

    The story of the 2nd part is full of things that you don't want to see. Just because you feel with Joel And Ellie more than with other characters.
    But it's really interesting how the feeling changes as you progress through a story. This game Is almost perfect in technical aspects. And it's story Is not so silly and straightforward as in 1st part. It's    I have played the first game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Back in 2013, i had the most thrilling experience with gaming in my life (maybe with life in general since
    i was thirteen), i remember very fondly going to the store and buying the game, and man, it chills me to the very core. Seven years later, here i am, absolutely crazy about the idea of a Part II. Such amazing graphics, small little details that increases the experience when you notice them, it's amazing to see the amount of love and hard work Naughty Dog put on these game. But, we're talking about The Last of Us, and it's all about story, and oh boy, TLOU always been an a dark story about humanity, fear, love, hate, all human things, the Part II is with no surprise about it. The controversy of Joel's death just reminds us about the world that the characters live in, there's no fancy and heroic deaths, you don't get to choose how you're gonna die, and seeing a character that we love so much die this way, it's really heartbroken, but that's the story that are being told. Never in my gaming life, hold a controller was so heavy, and the fear of what's coming next was so intense, never in a movie or reading a book i've felt like this before, this game is an absolutely masterpiece, Naughty Dog put some weight on the controller, makes you feel so many things trough story and gameplay. The flash backs of Joel and Ellie oh my god, you know how it ends, and it just make you grab that moment and enjoy it while you can, and also it shows how is Ellie still feel Joel's by her side saying "I got you, is everything ok". This game makes me crack a smile in the most sudle moments and also bring me down to tears. This game makes you think, it sticks with you, it's not only meant to be funny and that's that. Naughty Dog deliver us another masterpiece, 10 out of **** 10.    … Expand

I think people just dislike the game because they were so ruthless... it was a tough game but non the less a peace of art. SPOILERS!!
    I think people “hate” the game first of al because it’s “cool” to hate it now but also because they killed Joel, Jesse... and Ellie didn’t get her revenge, and lost everything for it... she didn’t want to do to the thing to Lev that Abby did to her... also this game focused on the fact that there are ALWAYS 2 sides of a story and no matter how right you think you are, it will be a horror story for someone else and you will be the bad guy even tho you do “what you have to do...”
    Long story short don’t hate the game because they make bold decisions... live doesn’t alway have an happy ending and I doubt that will change in an apocalyps... whatever you say it was a peace of art, a shocking but wonderfully written story. The only thing I can say is “Thank you, naughty dog!” You guys did it again!! No game ever has played with my feeling so much and touched me like this game did...    … Expand

    Between The Trolls rating 1's despite likely not playing the game and the people who missed the point of the story, this will be rated lower than it truly deserves. In this game, Naughty Dog told a story which asked people to set aside their own biases and their own hate and the game put them in the shoes of the "other" to get the player to understand another person's perspective.Between The Trolls rating 1's despite likely not playing the game and the people who missed the point of the story, this will be rated lower than it truly deserves.

Yes it is gut wrenching to force you to play from POV killer of your favourite character but make every one to see world through her eyes - I suspected that she has good reasons to kill Joel but if you not then that experience should show it to you.

At first i did not enjoy Abby at all as many would agree, but diving into her character was oddly amazing experience. we’ve grown so much love for Joel and Ellie that we forgot how grounded this world is, how consequences matter and that no one is safe. Ellie realized when she was about to kill Abby that she needed to let go of the guilt, shes lost everything because of revenge, Joel, Jessie, Dina and JJ. most importantly she started to lose herself. Abby has lost everything as well, her dad, Owen, and yara. they both lost everything due to revenge, it goes to show that nothing good come from revenge. Only Loss. this game is a masterpiece, one of the most controversial games ever and Naughty Dog did a FANTASTIC job with this game.

    The game is good the story is not for everybody.

    How do you top one of the best games of all time? By making it bigger, badder and more focused. The Last of Us Part 2 is unsettling at times, but that gives its story and theme more impact. This is a grown-up experience through and through and a fine example of gaming as art.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Having an opinion is everyone's right, but it's such a shame that so many would review bomb a game they haven't finished, or in many cases even played, just because they didn't like the path the story took. I didn't like what happened in the game either. I was intensely attached to the characters at the end of part 1, and to see the way part 2 ended left me hollow, sad, and empty. But for me, the beauty in this game lies in its ability to make you feel, intensely, what's going on in the moment. The gameplay is absolutely stunning. I've never played a game that's had my heart pounding to the extent that this one did. The graphics, mind-blowing. I struggle to see why we even need another console generation so soon (not that I'm complaining), when my launch PS4 is able to give me such a stunning immersive experience. And the storyline, well, it's tough. The only joy you find are in the little moments, like the flashback to Ellie's birthday. But that's what TLOU is about. The world is bleak, joyless, and the game makes you come to terms with that far better than even the masterpiece that was part 1 did. Furthermore, never before has a game made the player come to terms with their own actions like TLOU2. Two instances in particular spring to mind. First, where you slaughter a vicious dog, and later are made to play catch with the same dog and see what a sweetheart she is (RIP Alice). Second, where Ellie gets information from a seemingly meaningless character, who in the second portion of the game we see as a jovial character who had simply been protecting herself. Without giving much away, I have never been made to feel so profoundly by any video game, or any form of media for that sake. There are times when the game gets uncomfortable to keep playing, but that's what makes this franchise what it is.
    Also, just as a P.S. (Spoiler Alert), the moment where Ellie tells Joel she will try forgive him for lying about the fireflies made me so emotional I almost had to stop altogether.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Man where do I begin? This game is so far the most deepest story-driven game I have ever played. I guess one of the things that pulls players out from this game is that the makers of the Last of Us 2 made the game too human. I'd like to emphasize that, TOO HUMAN. Like humanity, as insignificant in the universe, the game's message was delivered to me (personally) that the characters in this game, dying in the most meaningless of ways, can always happen at any moment. The game is so fleshed out so close to human psyche that I myself have find it difficult to see through the game in the mood they set it in. It was difficult to see the game that has the aspects of a human and psychology, and without the normal cliches of a game like invincible heroes, black and white decision making, the boobs, and beautifully symmetrical designed characters. This game taps into the deepest core of human emotions and feelings that not all gamers can grasp, and that the game was for me, not an entertainment, but was a message that we all can relate to; whether it is in present time, or in an actual apocalypse.

    Also, my guess as to why some people hate it so much is that it betrays the norms of games and how we see games as we are accustomed to. There are no heroes in this game, and the characters, while being in a linear game, was not constructed to be warriors of morality and justice, but was built as a human, trying to survive. Characters trying to keep finding for something to fight for. I know not all gamers will agree with me, and will probably hate me for this, but I do believe those who have hated the game has either not received the true meaning of the game, or did receive it, but just wont accept it, or they are blatantly nitpicking just to spite the game.

    Like an empty wallet, a hungry stomach, and a broken heart. this game teaches a great lesson about love, hate, guilt and forgiveness. This game is a masterpiece. I wouldn't say it any other way. 10 out of 10 in my book.    … Expand

    The environment and atmosphere of a post apocalyptic world is well-captured.
    Sometimes, I just stare at the map at awe. Everything is well designed. The artists at Naughty Dog are some of the best in the game industry no doubt.
    New gameplay mechanics improved a lot of the fights and made it more fun. I can now spam L1 to dodge even bloaters. I'm playing the game on survivor. The sound is, as before, tremendous.
    The story.. well, that's the main reason why people rate it 0. Thats because they cant accept that Joel is dead and they didnt play the game. But overtime, as more and more people actually finish the game, the score will go up from zero.
    Neil Druckmann is a genius and I liked the way he wrote the story in this game. If anyone on Earth knows and love the universe of Last of Us, it would be the creator himself, Neil Druckmann.
