    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For me this game is a Dark Masterpiece.

    The creators did something risky; they flipped the video game troupe on its head. In nearly every game, we the player and the protagonist mow down, the quote on quote bad guy without really thinking anything about it. But in Last of Us 2, we get to understand the "bad guys" perspective and see their motivations.

    Now to the biggest part in the game, The Death of Joel. This was heart wrenching and rage inducing, but something made me pause, it was the anger the "bad guys" had, it made me pause and wonder, Joel what did you?

    And that pause and that question made me have a more open mind.

    Getting to play as Abby at first was disorientated, I did not want to play with her, she killed Joel, screw her, but as I progressed and I saw the other members of her crew and what they were about, how certain members were disturbed by what happened in Jackson, some were just fine. Others had their own goals, like Manny looking out for his father, Mel trying to figure out how to be with Owen and how her pregnancy was viewed by her members. It was that look into their worlds that made me start to see them as more than just killers but as people trying to survive in this chaotic world. It also made me very conflicted about the fates they would soon suffer

    Back to Ellie

    What took by surprise was how Naughty Dog really showed the traumatic effects of PTSD. They did this in Ellie's diary, how she described her thoughts how Joel, how she remember him and sadly every single thought or remembrance was one of jarring pain. Time can heal words, it can take the sting of a traumatic event and either reduces it to a small dull ache or a forgotten vapor. But PTSD takes that traumatic events and put you right to square one, day one of the intense pain. Pain so intense that you lose all sense of where you are, pain so intense that it continues to eat away at the very core of you bit by bit. That was beautifully illustrated by the reappearance of Ellie at the Farmhouse. She was gaunt and weary, she had no therapist to turn to, no bar to go to, no medication to help with the mental anguish, all of the modern conveniences of the modern world were gone, and sadly nothing she attempted to do could help her with her perpetual anguish, except one thing.

    Ellie was born into a brutal world, there is no law but survival and anything or anyone that means you or your loved harm, must be killed. Simple as that and for her the only way to quell that anguish is to find and kill Abby, even if it cost her, the hard won peace and happiness she found with Dina.

    Now back to Abby – Her design as a character for me was smart, Naughty Dog did not design her to be a classic videogame female beauty like Elena or Chloe from Uncharted, they did not want to rely upon looks to convey any sense of empathy for her, instead they relied on her all consuming quest to find the man who murder her father, who murder the leader of the Fireflies, the man who destroyed her whole world, Joel. And also the aftermath that followed. They relied on showing her vulnerability and her fear of heights, and finally they relied on her redemption arc, to save to two kids, even if they were her sworn enemy.

    The End.
    The jarring parts of this game was the illustration of what blind rage fueled obsession can bring, and that absolute dissolution of person as the continue on that path.

    The absolute most jarring part, was the end.

    Ellie finally finds Abby, and Abby is longer a She Hulk of a character, she is withered and beaten, all of her rage, of her strength, even her trademark pony tail is gone, she is a broken shell of herself, and sadly even as Ellie sees this broken version of Abby , she still cannot let go of her pain. They have a truly sad and Ellie has a pyrrhic win, and just right at the moment where she can finally kill Abby, she has a warm remembrance of Joel, finally a memory that is not jolting, but one that sees him healthy and ok.

    In that moment she lets go of it all, the hate, the rage all of it.

    I see a lot of negative criticism for this game. I really think people cannot hyper-impose their reality into a world that is completely different than there's. The sad thing is that people really are missing the point when it comes to how people truly deal with trauma, everyone is different. Everyone will handle it different and Naughty Dog attempted to show how pain and obsession can have some very devastating effects to not only the person dealing with the pain but also to those around them.

    I say play it again, and remove that thought of what you would do, instead realize you are truly witnessing a tale of descent...

    A tale that was beautifully told.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a biased review, to pretend otherwise would be dishonest. It’s really nice seeing myself in a game for once. But holy ****, the last few hours I was just begging through the screen for Ellie to give up her quest for revenge and go home with Dina. When the scene at the farm with Ellie and Dina and JJ happened I started crying, I thought that was gonna be it. Fade to black sitting on a tractor with her kid, the cycle of violence broken, and a happy ending. I feel absolutely gutted that she came back to find Dina had left. I’m hoping we’ll eventually find out that they get back together and raise their kid together. I want a happy ending, I want people to like me to have happy endings.

    Not to mention, Joel reminds me a lot of my dad. The way he awkwardly tried to connect with Ellie and especially the way he asked Ellie if Dina was her girlfriend. I played the prologue on Friday and gave my dad an early Father’s Day call...

    I really really liked this game I think it’s better than part 1. But I do feel as though my feelings were held hostage, queer women never get happy endings it seems. I feel like this game affects us differently as some of us probably desperately want to see some happy endings (which are in short supply for queer women.) Everyone’s able to sympathize, but I’ve never felt this kind of empathy for a video game character before. On another similar note, having their only trans character receive pain because of who he is intrinsically and not his choices, like every other character in this game kind of took me out of the experience. It didn't feel authentic or grounded in the narrative they built which revolves around the consequences of your actions. I'm not saying it was the worst choice they could have made but he didn't need to get dead named so often or have all of his trauma result from his being trans, there were dozens of smarter ways to write him into the story as elegantly as they wrote in Ellie being gay.

    probably an 8/10 realistically due to (pretty sizable) pacing issues and their treatment of the one trans character but I'm rating this based on how it's affected my life and me emotionally because I believe that is a worthwhile perspective. 10/10 game for ME, wow.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Despite what many other are saying I very much enjoyed this game. What I think they are trying to go for in this game is a lesson on perspective when you play as Abby you get to see her as a human and why she did it now whether u pity her or still hate her is up to you, personally I still hated her. I think the story in this game is a new kind of story that is interesting. Neil took a lot of risks with this game and most of it worked out. For the people who think that there is forced identity politics and forced LGBT ideas, there's not, Ellie has been known that she was lesbian since the DLC from the first game and honestly the fact that there are some LGBT aspects in this game makes it a little more interesting. Now I'm not some big LGBT supporter that thinks stuff like this should be shoved down peoples throats at all i dont think that's right but I think that the LGBT aspects in the game fit and really what does it matter, it makes some good story points too.


    This game is definitely one of the more realistic games, this had me on my feet for almost the entire game because I couldn't predict what would happen i loved the game play it felt fluid and the way you could move your character was awesome.

    Did it match up to the first game? Story wise? No, definitely not the first game is a masterpiece and I think pretty much everyone would agree. But I still think that this game is one of a kind and definitely worth playing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Im really suprised that so many fans wanted a simple narrative story.

    Really just Joel and Ellie running around the country again getting into mayhem again with better graphics is all everyone wanted?

    I loved the first game. I got the platinum. With this game i was ready for something different. Not only was the narrative different it was clever and it resonated.

    Does anybody realize that ND wanted everyone to hate abby? They gave no reason to like her at first. She killed joel after joel and tommy saved her. We knew she had a reason but damn she killed joel!!

    This is now a revenge game in our minds for 15 hours. We gotta get that ****

    Then the confrontation comes and we bam switch to abby.

    I dont see why people say that naughty dog forced the sympathy with abby. Shes still an incredibly flawed women. She is "a piece of **** as mel says. She also was ready to happily slit dina's throat after she found out she was pregnant.

    What we do find out is her motivation for killing joel. She spent 4 years making herself a weapon of revenge.

    While she watches her friends die over 3 days she tries to get some of what she was before her father died back by helping lev.

    In the end letting go of hate is the theme here for both women.

    I truly loved the experience of last of us 2 the gameplay was great the visuals where top notch and the game surprised me which is all that i could hope for.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolutely incredible. Never in my life as a game left me with tears running down my face. When I first started playing as Abby I was pissed I had to play was the person who tortured and murdered Joel. After "Day 2" I had no choice but to be invested in her story. I was again upset when I had to attack Ellie and then elated when Lev stops "me" from murdering Dina. When Ellie tracks Abby down in California I was fully prepared to murder Abby but she had Lev with her and they were both broken, when Ellie is drowning Abby I literally had tears running down my face.

    GOTY for me, never has a game made me so emotionally invested in the "villain" (whatever that means), because in Abby's story Ellie is the villain, so to be able to see both sides made me rethink how much I hated Abby in the beginning. Such an amazing and unique way to tell a story.

    To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Abby. The writing is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of philosophy most of the development will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Abby's rugged demeanour , which is deftly woven into xer characterisation- xer personal philosophy draws heavily from City of Thieves iterature, for instance.

There's also Abby's rugged demeanour , which is deftly woven into xer characterisation- xer personal philosophy draws heavily from City of Thieves iterature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of this writing, to realise that they're not just deep- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Abby's character truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the mystery in Abby's existential catchphrase "Guess," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Neil Druckmann's genius writing itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them.

    And yes, by the way, i DO have a Abby sex scene tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game an interesting way of telling the story of the last of us. The game reminded you that it is the character's choice not the player's choice. It forces you to make decisions that you may never agree with. Puts you into the shoes of the person you would think you would have no empathy for and manages to take you from the side of Ellie to put you in between the conflict between Abby and Ellie. The game is not supposed to leave you satisfied, its supposed to leave you thinking, you're not supposed to agree with Ellie's choice to spare Abby, you're supposed to disagree and think about Ellie's choice. Ellie never got to forgive Joel like she wanted to, and sparing Abby was a way for her to do that. Joel's decision not only took Ellie's death away from her but took Abby's life away from her. If Ellie felt like she couldn't forgive Joel, she understood that Abby couldn't either. And because Abby never had a bond with Joel, Ellie knew that Abby would resent him. Ellie understood Abby and Abby understood Ellie, which is shown when Abby offered to help in the end. They took from each other, and one of both of them ended their cycle of violence. That's what this game is about. The cycle of violence and how it goes full circle, and how forgiveness breaks that circle Expand

    Amazing gameplay, visuals, and amazing cinematic experience. It is great that a beloved game can have such a masterpiece as a sequel. I think that is rare.
    It is a shame that this game is getting bombed on here because of insecure bigots. Goodness, grow up.

    This game is not what fans of the first game were expecting. And that is equal parts frustrating, heartbreaking, exciting and.... I can’t put my finger on what else. And I think that says all it needs to say. After completing the game, I’m at a loss on how I feel. But I feel SOMETHING very strong. In a good way.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Attention spoilers about the history and gameplay on this review, this is a great game that deserves to be played before judged, if you do not understand why I gave it a 10 after having played it almost 28 hours and you think it is okay to give it a 0, or anything below 8 without even having played it, then you are the one with the problem and you should not judge before knowing.

    I think the game was superior to the first one in all aspects, starting with the playable aspects such as combat on wich the animations are much more fluid and realistic, stealth as always plays an important role, but now the enemies seem to have more communication between them , the scars whistle in code, the wolfs shout the names of their companions and they have dogs that sniff you and there is more variety of infected. The only thing I can criticize the gameplay is that the AI is sometimes not up to it (rare), inventory management is much better too, the transition between changing one weapon ti another or hitting an enemy is seamless and the we can always see the weapons equipped in the back or backpack of our character, crafting and collecting resources is entertaining as always, but here we have weapons mods that look and feel great.

    The ambientation, environments and its locations are another very strong point of this game compared to the previous one, the spore areas are dark, foggy, with very realistic ambient light and full of enemies, the ambient sounds and the noises the infected make you nervous. The apocalyptic version of the city of Seattle is extremely detailed, it has scenes full of overgrown vegetation, ruins, even a river with rapids and as it constantly rains everything is deteriorated, the jets of water that fall from the buildings and the puddles they create are very realistic, also the game surprised me with so many well detailed interiors as shops, gyms, restaurants, apartments etc.

    The history is the controversial part of the game, I have never been a fan of temporary jumps in movies or video games, and although I do not love them here, I must say that if they are very effective in showing the story first from Ellie's perspective - Spoiler Ahead - when Abey kills Joel, I was really shocked and she and her friends seemed the worst thugs to me, I couldn't wait for Ellie to take her revenge. I must emphasize that I did not read the spoilers of the game, I entered playing it blindly so I thought Dina was the one who died and that Ellie wanted her to avenge her, but when I saw that it was Joel the one who dies, Ellie's actions seemed justified to me, that until we reached the part of the game where you control Abby, there you get to know her better, this part where you control her was quite long too, almost as much as Ellie's and during all her journeys you get to know the character better and her friends much much better, turns out I liked some of her friends even more than Ellie´s friends like Owen, Manny and Nora are my favorites, when I saw that Joel killed his Father, I was still on Ellie's side in taking her revenge, but when Abby started helping the Scar brothers and tried to seek some kind of redemption to calm her conscience for what she did to Joel, I knew she was the same as Ellie and at that moment I didn't want she or Ellie to died, when the end was near I thought that maybe I would not like it but I did liked it,I am not going to discuss the end but I can say to other reviewers that said that Ellie was not faithful to her character because of her last action, you are wrong, she indeed killed alot os people to get to her revenge but at the end I think she finally realized that killing her wil not make her happy and that at the end Abby was a person like her that suffer alot because of this revenge the two had, she was ready to let go and she did.

    So, this game is the best until now of 2020, the only negatives I found was that Dina I never really liked me, I don't know why, also I am sad that Joel died, he was a terrific character but I think it was something that gave the story a lot of strength and that resulted in the rebirth of both main characters. We have an Ellie who can forgive when it is right and a new possible protagonist for some future game. The graphics although they are great I think they made my PS4 cry the and sometimes the textures did not always load or looked the best so I can not wait for the PS5, but all this seems superfluous and did not affect my enjoyment with the game at all.

    I truly believe that if you like survival games and really go into this game with an open mind you will enjoy it (especially if you happened to remain spoiler free)

    *Also just a reminder, a lot (if not all) of the ratings that are 0 and 1 were posted within the first 6 hours of the game being out and are just people that review bombed the game and had haven't actually played it first, or had just seen the leaks and made assumptions without playing it first.
    (A lot of them also say the game has a polical agenda and if you like it you are just a dumb sjw *in other words it's people that are homophobic or against feminism*) so baisically the real user rating is probably around 7/10 or 7.5/10*

    What the **** did I just play?

    I just finished this avalanche of excellence, this Mariana trench dive into the most obscure aspects of human nature, this monument to detail, craft, and unparalleled storytelling.

    The Last of Us II is the new measuring stick for videogames; the depth of the characters is surpassed only by the stunning game art and uncompromised graphics. The game's detail and clarity take the PS4 Pro hardware to its limit; you can often hear the machine redlining, struggling to keep up. I, too, struggled to keep up along it, facing a riveting story of vengeance, hate, and rage, a true tour de force of purposeful violence that would give Tomas de Torquemada a run for his money.

    I believe this game is the best I have ever played and might be the best created. Finally, I will say that players' negative reviews are precisely why expert critics exist, to praise art and excellence when commoners simply cannot recognize it. Only fools would not know this game for what it is, a 10/10 magnum opus that stands alone, at the top, with no peers.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. OK, I finished the game two days ago and I going to give my opinion not gonna be defending or whatever. At least for me I am happy with this game so much, I not saying I'm happy for Joel's dead but hey what can you expect for someone that doomed humanity and killed the father of the person who killed him? I'm also not saying he deserved to die, I mean I loved that character and I still think he became one of the biggest icons in video games but decisions have consequences. Going back to the decision, It's a super hard choice most of the humans would have done what Joel did cause think of it... sacrifice a daughter, son, or any family member to save people yo don't know? Yeah, it's super hard but still in our inside we'll know that saving humanity is the right call. For me what makes this game unique is the fact that is something different by not giving you the stuff you will really wanted to see, not everything can be a happy ending. Finally, thank you Neil Druckmann and the Naughty Dog team for making these past seven years of waiting worth it. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After playing The Last of Us, I knew it was going to be hard for Naughty Dog to successfully write a meaningful sequel to it. While TLOU2 didn't quite match the same level of perfection as the original, it was still truly a masterpiece that sent me through an emotional rollercoaster. Before getting into the story, I'd like to address the other aspects of the game beforehand. First off the visuals. The graphics in this game are downright some of the most impressive I have ever seen and no doubt pushed my PS4 to the max (my PS4 literally sounded as if it was going to explode while running the game). The most impressive part is that the game ran buttery smooth throughout my whole 24-hour playthrough.
    Next up, the gameplay. While remaining very similar at heart to the original, TLOU2 fine-tuned the mechanics to the point where there was nothing to complain about. The game includes many different and unique animations for takedowns and melee so the combat never feels stale. Allowing Ellie to go prone to sneak through the grass also adds another layer of strategy to the game that only further improves the gameplay. ND also improved the enemy AI to make them much smarter and aware of the environment. They even make callouts when they spot you and converse with each other using each one of their unique names. Some enemies also have dogs patrolling with them, which makes some situations more challenging and satisfying when you take them out. The layout of the terrain is also strategically placed so that the user can take multiple routes for each enemy encounter.
    Now onto the voice acting. The acting in this game has got to be the best I've ever seen in a video game. Multiple times through the game I almost forgot that I was playing a video game because it feels like you're watching a movie. The facial expressions are also extremely realistic.
    Finally, the most important part (and most controversial), the story. I'm not gonna lie, the story went neither the way I expected nor wanted. The fact that Joel got brutally murdered by Abby so early on completely enraged me and made me, like Ellie, want to do anything in my power to get revenge. For the first half of the game, you travel throughout the beautifully crafted and larger than expected city of Seattle. While I explored every nook and cranny of Seattle, there were many small but beautiful moments to experience. The one that stood out the most was the part in the music shop when Ellie grieves over Joel and starts to play his song (Future Days by Pearl Jam), but has to stop because she gets too sad, but then proceeds to play Take On Me and bonds with Dina. It's the little moments like this that really make this game special. After this, the game continues down Ellies' path for revenge until she finally runs into Abby, the extremely buff lady that ruthlessly killed Joel. At this point, you're about halfway through the game. Before you can find out what happens, the game forces you to play as Abby for the next 10 hours, which seemed to be a little bit too long for me, but I understand ND's intentions. While playing as Abby you go through a series of flashbacks and finally find out her motives for killing Joel. After I found out that her father was the doctor that Joel mindlessly impaled a scalpel through their throat, I finally realized the reasons behind Abby's actions. I honestly felt like they were justified. I mean if my father was a great guy who was trying to create a cure that could alter the course of history and save humanity, got murdered, I'd want to get revenge too. Now for the ending, I was actually satisfied with it. It shows that Ellie has finally come to terms with the death of Joel and realizes that killing Abby won't make her situation any better and that nothing will come out of it other than more sorrow. This is a game about revenge and loss. Ellie and Abby’s urge for revenge left them both alone in the end and Ellie pitying Abby finally breaks this cycle, albeit she lost two fingers.
    In the end, Ellie is left alone, Dina has left her, and Joel is gone forever. Due to Ellie seeking revenge one final time, she lost her perfect life and has made it impossible for her to play gee-tar anymore, which was her one way to remember Joel.
    I know this game isn't the happy loving/bonding story we got in the first game, but I believe it’s being unjustly hated on. I feel like people are failing to understand that this game is about perspective and how there are no good guys and depending on how you look at it, anyone can be seen as the bad guy. Ellie and Abby are actually very similar characters that both have motives for their actions, we just see Ellie as the good guy since we followed her story in the first game. Had TLOU been about Abby and her father, then we’d hate Joel and want him dead at all costs. This is a beautiful game that played with my emotions like no game has ever done before and definitely deserves the title of a Masterpiece.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Giving this a 10 to flush out some of the negative reviews with little to no context. My rating for this game would be somewhere closer to a 7 or an 8, mostly because expectations were super high due to the perfection of its prequel, and this game didn't match up to that perfection. Playing as Abby is the only reason I'm negating any points, simply because it just wasn't as enjoyable as playing as Ellie, obviously, even though I did appreciate a look from her perspective. However, a beautiful game nonetheless. I wanted to give it a bad review until I saw the ending. For most people, the ending was bleak and unsatisfying. To me, it was a perfect wrap up to the game and to the story of Ellie and Joel. I do agree with the angry gamers that Abby deserved to die in the end, but I also completely understand why the developers decided to showcase Ellie letting her go free. As she pictures Joel peacefully playing the guitar before ultimately deciding to let Abby live, I believe Ellie realizes that vengeance will not bring him back. She also can probably see that Abby and Lev somewhat have their own little Joel and Ellie tale going on. With the loss of Ellie's fingers, we see her lose the ability to play the guitar as well as she used to, and this, to me, shows her memories of Joel fading, as she can no longer pass down the last thing she had to offer in his name. The discomfort I felt was similar to that of the end of the last game. While, I agreed with Joel's decision at the end of the first game and didn't necessarily agree with Ellie's decision at the end of the second, doesn't mean I'm going to be angry at it for what it is and what it's made to be: an uncomfortable tale in an uncomfortable universe. The first game was about love and ended with a somewhat "evil" decision. The second game was about hate and ended with a not so evil decision. That's what I love about this series. The uncertainty and the raw human emotion rather than mindless characters with absolute consistencies simply for entertainment. This was a tale about revenge, and all throughout it we could see Ellie begin to get lost in her trauma which causes her to make some inconsistent and really hard to watch decisions, as a real person would. In the first game she mentions to Sam that her biggest fear is being alone, and at the end of the second game we see her deeply alone in her abandoned home attempting to play a guitar with the fingers she has left. Revenge is damaging, and that was the mission of this story. The "good guy" isn't always going to win and the "bad guy" won't always get what they deserve. Naughty Dog has always been ambitious in showing us that truth, rather than putting what everyone wants to see up on the screen. We all want to see a perfect revenge story concluded with, well, revenge, but the developers wanted to tell us a story, and they did. A damn good one too. They gave us a start to a discussion of morality, which is what this game has always been about. Not to mention the graphics and gameplay are phenomenal. In the Ellie segments, I couldn't put my controller down because the combat was so compelling, and so was the story. This is definitely worth a play. Expand

    Not everyone is going to enjoy the motives of The Last of Us Part II. But if you try and manage to accept the subliminal and not so subtle messages as a fact that the world has gone awry and that people have the need to have somewhere or someone to belong to as their own way out, then... You will witness the boundaries of gaming expand. You will witness a true masterpiece.
