    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. this is my genuine opinion about the game
    this game unfortunately is a big disappointment after 7 years of waiting part 2 was released to a franchise that didn't need a sequal however this cash grab was a giagantic failure because of these reasons:
    cons:

    1. character introduction they added like 20 new characters gave you no back story on most of them you have no attachments to them and they feel like throw away people used to show how quickly and dry people can die like Jessy dies randomly for no reason but to shock you however you have no attachment to him so his death is meaningless this also shows with dina as she is just there sometimes while exploring bringing up random stuff like how her sister took her too a church and then goes on about the holocaust when no one brings it up

    2.every male character is belittled as a psycho or killed leaving only tommy left bearly alive. not to mention that abby is built like a bulking lower end body builder and is completely unrealistic as a 7 year male lifter is bearly bigger than her and she managed to get that big in 4 years unless she was taking a crazy amount of estrogen blockers but even then she would only be on the same level of a man and would at least take 14 years to get to that level not to mention the proper nutrition that she is probably not getting considering yunno its the APOCALYPSE!!! the male characters are instantly misdemeanour'd as soon as this journey begins when the 'bigot sandwich' is delivered this just show the demographic is rousty teens and she don't need no man kinda people and the male cucks that go along with it and it is always cringey when big company's try to act progressive

    3. the order of events is messed up they should have explained why abby wanted to kill joel instead telling it way after this would have contrasted emotions

    4. they should've killed joel appropriately and for reference it should have been that farther figure death like in the walking dead games where lee dies protecting clem and you can choose whether to kill him or let him turn not some heman jacked up on an incredible amount of steroids killing him slowly with a golf club

    5.the game-play is just a RTX version of the last of us remaster and doesn't look any better than just red dead redemption 2 with better level design

    6.ending is dogcrap and whoever came up with that should have been executed immediately the writers are literally retarded hire some professional writers if u don't know how an ending works

    pros:

    1.good music

    2. one flash back of ellie's birthday with joel (depicts well the first game and is so good and should have developed on it with the progression of joel lost his daughter then finds what he lost with ellie and that is what make the game good in the first place)

    3.the 2 characters lev and Yara were the only well developed characters in the whole game

    4.looks good however not as good as some games however keeps to the standed of 2020 graphics

    conclusion: waste of $60 and the person who leaked this game is a god who saved a lot of people money not including me as i wanted to be unbiased and hadn't seen them and the game journalists are just saying it is good because how well received the first game was and was considered the best game ever made therefore they didn't want to go against the mob they thought would be therefore they were dishonest to cater to the accomplishments of the game before.

    therefore to me this is not cannon and i will remember the first game and try to forget this nightmare

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Horrible game. The creators of this game has shown exactly how much they respect the first game. They took a massive character trait, Joel not trusting anyone, and just said “Ehhhhh. He’d trust these teenagers he just met a second ago with no second questions.” Also his death scene is literally just torture porn and shock value which was a disappointing send off for a main character. And naughty dog is full of hypocrites who will **** and moan about “realistic proportions in female body types” but then go and make their ‘main character’ the size of a linebacker with the body type to match. Physically impossible for a girl in a post apocalyptic world to build that much muscle mass, let alone find the time and nutrients to maintain it. I’m literally infuriated that I avoided the leaks, I would’ve had better entertainment if I had just burned the money in front of myself. Good graphics tho, really saw the blood splatter on the golf club Expand

    The only reason I give this a 2 rather than a 1 is to at least credit the talented programmers, artists, QA testers, and actors who worked on this game.

    However, the writing and script of the game is atrocious. If it were another game, I could forgive it. But the last of us is a game known for its story, themes, characters, and plot. And this game is a disgrace to the original, in that

And this game **** the bed, not only did it **** the bed, it spit right on our faces (just like after that one part). It is infuriating that they are trying to push an agenda into this game as well, like they are trying SO HARD.

    It's enough, I genuinely feel like I wasted my money and I am genuinely sorry for the devs who spent years to make such a good looking game just to fall more than flat, to fail miserably. The game plays amazing but if you don't want to play a game because of its story, it's not a good game.

    They were fishing for a reaction and yeah, they are getting one. This is not Part II.

If you are looking for a rational or realistic review, i recommend staying away from google reviews and these reviews. The majority of the reviews are 0/10 review bomb spam, or reviews that are clearly homophobic and hateful. On top of that, many scores rated as negative (4 and under) with descriptions depicting what would qualify as a mixed score (5-7), which shows a lack of understanding of how to rate products. Fallout 76, a buggy and incomplete game only scored .5 lower than this game on user reviews, which again shows that this games user reviews are not to be trusted. Anyone reading who thinks the troll or review bombs are helpful, just remember, the developers are going to ignore and pass over reviews with the intent to troll, so if you think that review bombing will actually sway the developers to your side, it won't. In all, it is very embarrassing that the community reacts with review bombing and hateful reviews, especially when 21,000 people claim to have played and been competent enough to review a game released 24 hours ago. Metacritic is also intended for people looking to buy a game with little knowledge surrounding the game before purchase, so mainly causal players, so political rant reviews and troll reviews serve no use or purpose to people looking to actually buy the game, as most people care very little about the "politics" of a games story. Metacrtitc should look to add a purchase verification feature or play time counter or playtime cap in order to stop review bombs from ever happening again. Expand

    The positive reviewers like to act like they are making good points when arguing why Joel was meant to die. No one disagrees Joel deserved to die, he was never established as a morally good character and he made a selfish decision which condemned the human race. No one is angry Joel died we are angry about how he died. My take on this would be much different if we were introduced to Abby long before she brutally murders Joel. They set them self up with an insurmountable task of creating empathy for Abby. And they didn't even try, we got a ten minute scene where she saves a Zebra with her father then they reveal Abby is the person who convinced them Ellie should be murdered to save humanity. If the writers are trying to make the player empathize with Abby why would they establish her as the one who condemned Ellie which inevitably led to Joel killing her father? Later on in the story we are introduced to Lev who saves Abbys life. This prompts Abby to betray the wolves to save Lev. This decision of Abbys feels like a fruitless attempt by the writers to establish Abby as a morally good character in order to gain empathy from the audience. They're trying to define Abby as selfless contrary to her making numerous selfish decisions. It's hard to say anything for certain about Abby's character because every other decision is conflicting. One moment she is selfless the next she is selfish. When it comes to condemning Ellie her morals are for the good of the many but when it comes to saving Lev her morals are for the good of the few. She gets very angry when she finds out Ellie has killed her friends yet she's already betrayed these friends and was prepared to leave these friends behind to help Lev. The story overall is nonsensical and revolves around and characters literally abandoning and losing everything in a fruitless quest for revenge. Both Abby and Ellie quite literally sacrificed everything over avenging the deaths of two people in a world where everyone has lost someone. Death and violence is around almost every corner of this world. Yet for whatever reason these two people are so special our characters travel thousands of miles killing hundreds to enact their revenge. Even after watching the bond which is formed between Joel and Ellie in the first game I have a hard time believing that Joel's death was enough to bring on this murderous rampage. Especially after Joel and Ellie’s rough relationship has been established.

    This world isn't the same world we were put into in the first game. There is no hope in this world, there is only violence and sadness. The violence is so over the top that by the end of the game I was completely numb to it all. The game heavily relies on shock value that was brought about through overly violent and grotesque actions perpetrated towards beloved characters which was so overly used it left me feeling nothing when the game came to it's final conclusion and this mattered the most. At no point were we given any sort of relief or loving character development which gave us respite from the sadness and violence of this world previously. In the first game Ellie provided 90% of this relief from the awful world we were witnessing. But she is now a shadow of her former self, despite spending her years safe and sheltered in a settlement with electricity she has completely lost the spark we saw in the first game. The conclusion of the game is hollow, hundreds die in this needless revenge plot and one singular person being saved who the player has established no empathy for is supposed to bring meaning to all the meaningless violence.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What made the first game so great was the beautiful character development, the story, the fast paced action. None of which is in this one.

    "Story-driven game" The story is garbage. Characters don't behave like in the first game. Joel and Tommy are suddenly trusting idiots when in the first game Joel right from the start prioritised the survival of himself and those close to him over anyone else. Joel is very perceptive and should have been wary around a new heavily armed group.

    The ending is **** I couldn’t get to the credits rolling because still... Still after half the game playing as mega boring Abby I hated her and couldn't believe that instead of switching back to Ellie they thought it would be cool and "edgy" to fight Ellie to the death. I looked up what happens after and it is absolute fanfiction.

    Out of all of the many, many new characters I liked three of them, was indifferent to one, and absolutely hated the rest. Jesse is interesting, I would have liked knowing more about his relationship with Joel. The dog was very cute but wasted on the slimy "Owen?" and Mel. And I really enjoyed Lev. But he was in the game for much to short a time to properly bond with him. I just didn't believe anyone. It all felt very awkward and there was no character development.

    The focus is too wide. The plot of the first game was focused and split into beggining, end and four seasons. This one has "previously on LOU", beginning, fakeout end, end, extra ending scene, flashbacks, dream sequences, weird time jumps, and more convoluted bs.

    Graphics: 9/10
    Gameplay: 5/10 (walking simulator, weird ai) Story: - 20/10

    I'm done talking about this garbage.

    Game was way over hyped and over in a day. The story was cringy and uninteresting. A good portion of the dialogue was just unrelated to the story and solely for some kind virtue signaling. Really weird. The gameplay offered almost nothing new. The enemies were the same and everything was just like part one. I recommend a hard pass on this game until its in the $5 bin at Christmas.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The last of us 2 is a good game but could cut down on filler content. The character's motivations feel off at most points in the game. The pacing and the ending, not my favourite as they could of let you choose who to play as in the final battle, and then if you want to spare them or not similarly to Detroit become human. But overall really cool game that I really enjoyed. Expand

But when they in essence urinate on the grave of the story that they have built up over the years, and replace loved characters with new ones that do not even feel like they have a semblance of feeling or anything else for that part, they feel like machines basically. Then I as a consumer and a player do not find meaning in playing the game. I wanted to play this game to expand on Joel's and Ellie's story, but this game does the opposite of that. Expand

    So here is what I think:

    Pros: - gameplay - graphics - atmosphere - sound - music All those parts are undeniable very good. Its top notch. Sure the controls sometimes feel weird but they do in most of the games. It would be unfair to say this game isnt up to date in terms of all those points I mentioned. Cons: - story - character design - character development - plot
    So here is what I think:

    Pros:
    - gameplay
    - graphics
    - atmosphere
    - sound
    - music

    All those parts are undeniable very good. Its top notch. Sure the controls sometimes feel weird but they do in most of the games. It would be unfair to say this game isnt up to date in terms of all those points I mentioned.

    Cons:
    - story
    - character design
    - character development
    - plot holes

    So, even with all the pros this game is really really bad. It makes NO sense that Ellie act how she acts in certain parts of the game but that isnt even the biggest thing about why its bad.
    The reason is: character development.
    If you kill one of the most beloved characters early in the game (Joel) and want to bring in new main playable characters like Abby, you HAVE to bring WAY more backstory in order to make the player feel with her.
    I mean she KILLED Joel!
    How do you make the player like her? Bring more and more backstory before she does that. Let the players play 2-10h as Abby when she was a child or whatever. The backstory of her is basically told in 10minutes and then her dad is being killed. Thats it? And now I have to feel with her and understand why she killed Joel?
    Hell no!
    That is weak story telling. Really really weak.

    Then there are all the other new characters. Nobody is likeable. Like really. They all feel empty. They are only shells without any meaning.

    This game is just bad. Do yourself a favor and dont buy it. The reviews the journalists wrote are either bought by Sony or ND or are heavily politicly influenced. Sad thing is: because of that same journalists will most likely make this game GOTY. What a joke.

    Safe your money and buy something else.

    And last but not least: this is technically a very good game but the story/characters is/are SO bad it just doesnt matter how well the rest is done.

    You want a good revenge story? Watch "Oldboy" then you know how to make a good revenge story that shocks everybody to their core.

    This game right here? Its garbage.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My suggestion to you is not to spend your money on buying this game at all and do not play this game at all (don't be fooled by the high score of this game)
    (If you play this game, you will hate the whole game industry)
    The reason is that this game only has very high graphics and good art design, and in terms of a very bad story, you must say that many games have a bad story, but in the case of The Last of Us Part II, the situation is different and there are many mistakes in it. Unlike the first part of this game, this game basically has a story full of problems
    Merits
    1- High and stunning graphics and excellent art design
    2- Very high gameplay, warms your head for hours
    Disadvantages
    1- Story: A very bad story, art must elevate man, art, what film, music, computer games, in addition to being fun, there must be instructive points for human life, hidden in art in The Last of Us Your Part II would have reached emptiness, that is, an empty human being, that is, a purposeless human being, that is, an animal similar to a human being
    2- Movie: The mistake that some game directors make in the last few years about the games of this generation is that they want to design the game from the beginning like a movie from the beginning and at the beginning of making the game. Directors who follow this trend, their game is similar to a simple walking game on the street. They do not consider that in making the first game, you have to make a game and after finishing the work, make that game look like a movie. In remembrance, the same mistake was made by the famous director Hedio Kojima, who plunged him into the quagmire of sinking the game industry in the movie, and his last two games again faced high scores from critics and low scores from gamers. Was
    3- Sex: I am against entering scenes or sexually explicit words in any branch of art, movies, music and computer games, but in my opinion, in this game, neither the man nor the woman in this game has any value. Destroyed and sexually insulted and humiliated both sexes and questioned human beings as a whole. I consider homosexuality to be a mental illness, not an inalienable right. Countries like the United States and France have recognized homosexuality, so it's safe to say that they have the right to be animalistic to humanity.
    4- Bad smell of politics and conspiracy (humanism and humanism): This game is made with a very high budget and there is already a very high sales forecast for this game, but behind these very heavy costs and this kind of bad story and It is highly doubtful that the story and design of the game, and even the strong financial support, will be shared by the kings and the Freemasonry sects in this game.
    This game will be a headache for Sony and Nagati Dog by writing a fringe and problematic story, and it will be expensive for them. And even in the future, the game industry will change.
    Neil Drakeman: You are not and will not be a good director at all, and you will soon be fired from the entire game industry for your betrayal of art.

    Alright, let's go to the merits first.
    I enjoyed the cenary, the quality and detail of the worldbuilding was incredible and the physics were fun, even if a bit buggy.
    The mechanics were improved on, but still had much of what the first game had, just some additions to give it some flavor, I guess. The sneak mechanic I didn't enjoy, because it's unrealistic that you can always kill an enemy just by grabbing it from behind. Maybe if it had a chance to fail? That would have made it less powerful and more balanced.
    The story was unfulfilling and left a sour taste on the mouth of many gamers, me included. For a game that was loved for it's story, such a failure creates most of the divide that we are seeing here in the User Reviews. But let's not put blame on the entire group that developed the game, only on the writers. The fact that you aren't given a choice about your morals makes the moral idea behind the game fall flat. Either give a choice or don't try to guilt trip your players!

    Graphics: 10/10
    Gameplay: 7/10
    Story: 3/10 (gave some points because of the flashbacks)

    The game is focused on the story (giant amount of cutscenes), so I'm calculating my final score based on the following equation:
    Final Score = [Story + (Gameplay + Graphics)/2]/2
    Final Score = 5.75
    Rounded to...
    Final Score = 6

    Então, esse jogo se tornou polêmico, e é muito estranho ver pontuações tão polarizadas. Se esse foi o objetivo, bem, ele funcionou, mas ainda é triste que um criador de jogos faria isso com seus fãs. Como se as pessoas já não tivessem coisas na vida real sobre o que brigar.

    Começando com os méritos.
    Eu gostei do cenário, a qualidade e detalhe do mundo é incrível e a física é divertida, mesmo que meio bugada.
    As mecânicas melhoraram, mas ainda tem muito do que teve o primeiro jogo, só com algumas adições para dar um sabor. A mecânica de furtividade não me agradou, pois não é realista que você possa matar alguém sempre que pegá-lo por trás. Talvez se tivesse chance de falhar, fosse melhor? Faria com que essa mecânica fosse menos poderosa e consequentemente mais balanceada.
    A história foi insatisfatória e deixou um gosto amargo na boca de muitos jogadores, inclusive a mim. Pra um jogo que foi amado por sua história, essa falha cria a maior parte dessa divisão que estamos vendo nas pontuações aqui. Mas não culpemos todos os que trabalharam nesse jogo, o erro foi dos escritores apenas. Não nos ter dado a escolha de como agir faz com que a lição moral por trás do jogo seja inútil. Ou você dá a opção do jogador escolher como agir, ou não tente culpá-lo por agir como o jogo te força a agir!

    Visual: 10/10
    Jogabilidade: 7/10
    História: 3/10 (dei alguns pontos por causa das memórias inclusas)

    O jogo é focado na história (grande quantidade de cenas), então estou calculando minha pontuação final baseada na seguinte equação:
    Pontuação Final = [História + (Jogabilidade + Visual)/2]/2
    Pontuação Final = 5.75
    Aproximado para...
    Pontuação Final = 6
