    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Its an almost perfect game. Most people are upset because they killed Joel, but thats not the point. Everyone can die in TLoU universe because they are not superhuman. Joel and Tommy made a mistake and that costed Joels life. Its hard, and it made me cry, but happens.

    Most people say that they would preffer just another TLoU with Joel and Ellie being happy. Thats not TLoU and it never was. If you want that, write fanfic. They told the story they wanted to tell and its a sad and depressing story, but that doesnt make it worse.

    Lastly, f*ck those comments talking about a political agenda, lgbt agenda or any kind of agenda. You are just homophobic an transphobic, get over it.    … Expand

    Bom, Eu acabei de Fechar o The Last of Us 2, e a Únicas Palavras que posso usar para Descrever sem dar Nenhum Spoiler é que é
    O Jogo Mais Emocionante que eu Já Joguei em Toda Minha Vida.
    Nesses quase 5 dias jogando direto Fechei a Campanha com umas 35h Aproximadamente e Foram um Carrossel de Sentimentos, Eu Fiquei com Raiva, Triste, Com Ódio, Chorei, Fiquei Ansioso, Indignado, Com Medo,    Bom, Eu acabei de Fechar o The Last of Us 2, e a Únicas Palavras que posso usar para Descrever sem dar Nenhum Spoiler é que é
    O Jogo Mais Emocionante que eu Já Joguei em Toda Minha Vida.

    Nesses quase 5 dias jogando direto Fechei a Campanha com umas 35h Aproximadamente e Foram um Carrossel de Sentimentos, Eu Fiquei com Raiva, Triste, Com Ódio, Chorei, Fiquei Ansioso, Indignado, Com Medo, Pensativo...

    Assim como em um filme de Terror que te conduz a sentir o medo, a Naughty Dog Conduziu todos esses Sentimentos de uma forma que eu Nunca tinha sentido.

    Esse Jogo te faz pensar muito.
    Sobre como lidamos com Sentimentos, Sobre Ideologias e o que acreditamos tbm.

    Eu Sempre Tive Problemas com Coisas que acho Forçadas. Como por exemplo quando todas as protagonistas viraram femininas só para levantar Bandeira.
    Não gosto disso. Quer Fazer um Protagonista Gay, Negro, Mulher, Anão, Não me importa com tanto que não seja Forçado.
    Seja Natural.

    Tem Todas as Minorias, Lésbicas, Deficiente, Negro, Asiatico.

    Mas é tudo tão Humano e Natural.

    Esquece um Pouco o Sony x Microsoft, Todos aqui somos Fãs de Vídeo Games, É o Nosso Hobby, Nossa Válvula de Escape.
    O que esse Jogo fez é algo para ser Jogado por Todos !!!
    Ele Vai mudar coisas daqui pra frente, assim como o The Witcher 3 Mudou as Sidequests, The Last of Us 2 Mudou a Narrativa.

    Você vê gente que nem curtia jogos, da Indústria do Cinema/Teatro que Acharam Maravilhoso. E isso é ótimo. Quebra esse Karma de que Vídeo Games são Coisa para Criança.

    Assim como o Thanos foi tão bem Feito que você esquece que é CGI, Os Personagens foram tão bem Construídos que você esquece que é um Jogo.

    The Last of Us 2 para mim é o jogo que Fechou essa Geração e com Certeza o Melhor jogo que eu Já Joguei na Vida.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Well, I just closed The Last of Us 2, and a single word I can use to describe without any spoiler is what it is
    The Most Exciting Game I've Ever Played In My Life.

    In those almost 5 days playing straight I closed a campaign with approximately 35 hours and a carousel of feelings, I was angry, sad, comedy, blushed, be anxious, indignant, afraid, thoughtful ...

    Just like in a horror movie that causes feeling or fear, a Naughty Dog handles all those feelings in a way that I never felt.

    This game makes you think a lot.
    About how we deal with Feelings, About ideologies and what we also believe.

    I've always had problems with things I think are forced.
    For example, when all the protagonists become female only to raise the flag.
    I do not like it. Wants to Make a Gay Protagonist, Black, Woman, Dwarf, I don't care how much it is not Forced.
    Be Natural.

    It has All Minorities, Lesbians, Disabled, Blacks, Asians.

    But it's all so human and natural.

    Choose a Little or Sony x Microsoft, We are all Video Games, It's Our Hobby, Our Exhaust Valve.
    What this game did is something to be played by everyone !!!
    It will change things going forward, like The Witcher 3 Changed as Sidequests, The Last of Us 2 Changed the Narrative.
    You see people who don't even like games, from the Cinema / Theater Industry of Acharam Maravilhoso. And this is great. Break this Karma that Video Games are a Thing for Children. Just as Thanos was so well Done that you forget that it is CGI, The Characters were so well Built that you forget that it is a Game. The Last of Us 2 for me is the game that closed this generation and for sure or the best game I've ever played in Life.    … Expand

    The last of us part 2 is a very complex story. Try to explain it very differently than anything. It is very hard emotionally, it is very realistic.

In almost every story, everything ends with a happy ending, and this game tries to show that things don't always go the way you want. I believe that many have not understood this concept well and are used to happy endings because they did not like the story, it seems quite original to me and different from everything. As for the music of this game, I find it incredible. Graphically it is a next-gen game. It is the game with the best animations I have ever seen. The gameplay is very similar to the first, with a few changes that improve it a lot. The gameplay of the first part I really liked, this is even better. It is not innovative, Naughty Dog does not usually do innovative things, but they can do masterpieces.… Expand

    what is this crap? spend my money on this? What good is it to create an apocalyptic world where survival was vital to a happy world of progress. Are you seriously targeting your audience? To those who if we consume video games we dedicate time and money or to resentful minorities that the only thing they know how to do is cry and spoil it, which is good.

    The story is 1/10. Graphics 9/10. Gameplay 5/10. Technology 8/10. While the aggregate of this score would be around 5, the story, which is the most essential part of this game's experience, is simply too atrocious to be bearable.

    one of the many problems about the story was the way they wrote Joel as well as the rest of the game. I feel like Joel was meant to be more trusting of people after he lived 4 years in the settlement, maybe learning to be more trusting. but sadly naughty dog failed to depict this in the game. another factor could have been that since Joel saved Abby and they survived a horde    spoilers!!

I feel like Joel was meant to be more trusting of people after he lived 4 years in the settlement, maybe learning to be more trusting. but sadly naughty dog failed to depict this in the game. another factor could have been that since Joel saved Abby and they survived a horde together he could have trusted her since she didn't backstab him at the time but to me, that has its own flaws since Abby is a smart character and new she needed Joel and Tommy to help her survive before she killed Joel and the old Joel would have maybe picked up on this. overall to me the game was a good game but the story was flawed but also had its moments such as the flashbacks, particularly the one where Joel and Ellie are in the space shuttle as well a when they go searching for guitar strings. I also like parts of the ending particularly the scene between Ellie and Joel as well as the final scene before the credits. To me the acting was amazing and the graphics and overall gameplay ( while clunky at times) were top-notch and one of the best parts of the game. The game isn't bad and I certainly think it doesn't deserve as much hate as it gets but it could have been better and hopefully naughty dog learns from this. so far this is the first or maybe 2nd failure that I've encountered from the naughty dog. I still think they are a great game company and that Neil Druckman is a good director but sadly this time around he shot and missed but that shouldn't mean we should **** on him. the game while not as good as the first was still good to me. if it were a stand-alone game I feel it would have done much better but since it was a sequel to a beloved game it is getting much more hate than it deserves in my opinion. Overall the game while decent has its flaws in storytelling and hopefully, ND learns from this mistake.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Most depressing, most pointless story. As oppose to The Last of Us 1 this game has no characters you'd sympathise with. The strongest characters turned into weakest ones whom you want to slap hard to get over themselves and get **** done. Obviously, no happy ending is possible all things considered, but it could have been executed so much better. The characters we got to know in TLOU1 are left in TLOU1, cause TLOU2 has nothing to do with them apparently. No more characters or relationship development. Ellie is the most depressive, moody and plainly horrible to Joel. She did everything to leave him behind, between her attitude towards him until the very last moment when she let Abby go. What was the point of this whole story?? Visually stunning game and such disappointing story.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I understand the story. There's consequences to what Joel did in the first game, and they're reasonable. I loved how the game was truly of revenge, loved how we as Ellie feel the anger and are hunting them 1 by 1. But whenever the game changes to Abby's perspective, it didn't work for me. I really wasn't into it. And what I don't like is yeah we saw who she was and everything but Ellie doesn't have a clue, so what's the point. I felt super forced to play as her and I didn't like it, I also felt that they tried to hard to show she wasn't that bad but Ellie was. And well, it didn't work for me. If I'm being honest, as a huge fan of part 1, if the game would have been entirely under Ellie's gameplay, and the story doesn't stop, this would have been a 10/10. Fck Abby.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. el juego me parecio impresionante. gameplay impecable y GRAN banda sonora, enemigos con IA mejorada, nuevos infectados y una historia REALISTA. por que es realista? nos preguntamos por que joel tenia que morir asi y no de otra forma? . sabemos que joel mato a muchisima gente incluyendo a el papa de abby, asi que lo que buscaba abby era venganza, e iba a matar a joel de alguna u otra forma tarde o temprano, porque ya habia encontrado el pueblo de jackson. entonces abby encontrandose a joel vio la oportunidad de vengarse y asi fue. por que joel confio tan facil en ella siendo que en el primer juego no confiaba en nadie y estaba solo? porque joel ya habia cerrado esa etapa de su pasado lleno de traumas por la muerte de sarah, con un nuevo comienzo en jackson con ellie y tommy, estaba en paz con el mismo y no esperaba que alguien lo buscase despues de toda la gente que mato, habia cambiado mucho. cuando vemos que abby mata a joel vemos que no mato a tommy y a ellie porque ella ya se habia vengado, no queria matar a los demas, solo a joel. obviamente ellie buscó venganza, a todo esto dejando a todos atras, sin importar si la acompañasen o no. asi es como ellie mata a todo el grupo de amigos de abby, esperando que asi se sintiese mejor, hasta que mato a mel estando esta embarazada, ahi ellie se dio cuenta de lo horrible en que se estaba conviertiendo todo esto quedando asi en shock, seguramente porque tambien habrá pensaso en dina y en su embarazo y que hubiera sido horrible si le hubiera pasado a ella y a su hijo. despues encuentran a tommy y jesse y ellos deciden volver a casa, porque era suficiente tantas muertes porque no iba a traer a joel de vuelta. ellie entonces cede y acepta volver a jackson. pero justo aparece abby y lev, asi dejando a tommy sin un ojo y matando a jesse, para vengarse otra vez pero de la muerte de su amado owen y sus compañeros asesinados. sin embargo perdona la vida de ellie y dina. la siguientes escenas y ya las ultimas del juego muestran a ellie, dina y su bebe recien nacido en una casa lejos de todo. ellie sigue sin poder dormir y sin poder pasar un buen tiempo con su hijo porque no pudo vengar la muerte de joel. ellie ya sabia lo que hizo joel que le mintió sobre su inmunidad y su relacion por esa razon ya estaba rota, sentia que si mataba a abby iba a poder sentirse en paz con ella porque en los ultimos momentos vivos de joel se fue sin perdonarlo y con resentimiento. dina le insiste en que si la ama no vaya a buscar a abby, pero ellie estaba cegada y queria a toda costa vengarse para asi perdonar la muerte de joel. ya todos habian dejado de lado la venganza para seguir con su vida, menos ellie que seguia atormentada porque sentia que su forma de perdonarse y perdonar a joel por mentirle era vengar su muerte. al final terminamos con que ellie encuentra a abby, la obliga a pelear porque sino mata a lev, que estaba malherido, por mas q abby no quisiese porque se dio cuenta de que el camino del odio no lleva a nada. cuando esta por matar a abby, a ellie se le viene un flashback y se da cuenta de que el camino de la venganza no es el mejor, porque en el caso de que haya matado a abby, lev hubiera buscado venganza por abby e iria a matar a ellie, si matan a ellie dina o tommy se vengarian y asi sucesivamente. ambas perdieron mucha gente que amaban, ambas tenian gente a quien cuidar y a quien querer. y el ciclo de venganza y odio nunca terminaria. miren el ejemplo de rrdr2, matan a arthur y despues john cuando se venga de arthur al final años despues lo terminan matando y jack busca de vuelta venganza. se dan cuenta como no termina? ellie decide cortar con ese ciclo, porque tuvo su momento de realizacion y se dio cuenta de que matar a abby no traeria esa paz, sino volver con dina y su familia y seguir adelante, dejar el camino del odio. entonces dejan irse a abby y a lev (viendo que abby era la nueva figura a seguir de lev) al llegar a su casa se da cuenta de que dina y tommy se fueron, y ella por dejarlos atras buscando el camino de la venganza quedo sola. termina ese ciclo tocando la guitarra (sin poder hacerlo porque pierde sus dedos) que le regalo joel y dejandola atras en la casa, sin mirar atras. esa es su forma de perdonar y dejar atras la muerte de joel. fue un final agridulce, me dejo reflexionando y nadie lo esperaba. neil tenia razon sobre que este juego no se trata de diversion e incomoda, porque habla de como es una historia desde ambas partes. quien es el enemigo? quien es el bueno? hasta donde es capaz de llegar la venganza? y para los que dicen que el juego esta politizado o es "progresista" por tener contenido LGBT, es el mundo en que vivimos, todo esta politizado, y mas en el apocalipsis donde ya no existe la ley, todos quieren tener poder y crear sus propias reglas y grupos, sean religiosos o politicos. y la diversidad merece estar en los juegos y no que sea algo que pasa solo en nuestra realidad y que sea un taboo. poca gente entendio esta gran historia.… Expand

    I will say it as a progressive gay man. This game is bull crap. I can't believe there was so little respect to it's precursor. It's less of a game and more of a movie with an agenda. Graphics were decent yeah, but everything else is beyond horrible. it's downright criminal no less

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I liked that we got to play as Ellie one more time and continue her story. I don't like how Joel died, I don't like that we had to play as Abby for as long as we did, I did not care for Abby, I hate that we did not get to get revenge at the end. Ellie went out for revenge and for what? To let Abby go and to lose her girl and adopted child? Joel dying wasn't the issue, it was how he died. Sure you could make an argument that Joel has softened in his older age but the Joel from the first part wouldn't have trusted those strangers so easily.

    They could have told the same story and honoured the first game better than they did. At one point I was like "There's no way they're going to make me also kill Ellie as Abby!?".

    To summarise, I'm happy to have played as Ellie one more time, I just feel like it was not executed the best. The game is beautiful nevertheless but storytelling wise, it could have been better.    … Expand

    Pros - Graphics
    - Voice acting
    - Motion acting - Character design Cons
    - Anticlimactic character deaths
    - Suffers from a phenomenal bad story - Ending is anti climatic and ruins the entire plot of the game

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Lets put this simply, this game is very good but in my opinion definitely not a masterpiece. Firstly ill say if you asked me to rate the game after my first twelve hours (which was playing as Ellie) i would've given it a 10/10, honestly the Joel death was devastating but i understood why they decided to go through with this narrative and it gave me such a will to go on to get revenge for him which therefore made me hungry to see how this story would unfold and obviously at this point i was desperate to kill Abby.

    So going through the first part with Ellie and Dina was great in my opinion, the game looked incredible and i loved the more open aspect of the game and how there are things you can miss if you dont search everything which was something i fell victim to missing Ellie sing take on me to Dina. Anyway to make a long story short i loved every moment of the story with Ellie and Dina together in Seattle. Keeping with Ellie i also liked Jesse and found their dialogue together to be interesting and enjoyable to listen to. Also the fact that the whole Ellie section included flashbacks was great for me, so yes Joel was killed yet we got to see some great moments between them especially the museum which was my personal favorite part of the game.

    Anyway going on to the revenge part of the story for Ellie, i rather enjoyed going through it seeing how much it effects her killing all these people. But obviously the cost of revenge is also shown which obviously leads to the death of Jesse which was quite a shocking moment for me to see happen but it made sense. Anyway now onto the part that stopped this game being one of the greats for me.

    So obviously now we go on to Abby and honestly ill straight up say i was devastated after finding out i was playing 10 hours of her to be honest but i thought 'oh you know maybe ill grow on her' but no not at all. Like i said earlier i was fine with Joel's death but i was definitely not fine with controlling his killer, obviously i get why they did it to understand her reasoning but i just couldn't get into her character and honestly when characters like Mel, Owen and Manny died i just didnt feel bad as i felt no connection to them, however ill quickly said i was a fan of both Lev and Yara and thought they were good additions, were definitely a good point of Abby's section and did really will them on. But overall Abby's section was only a 6/10 for me

    Anyway ill quickly talk about the ending, to be honest i personally didn't feel satisfied as i felt emptiness really as i just really wanted to see Ellie get her revenge due to my personal connection to Joel, however i did understand why what happened, happened and can say despite not personally feeling happy i get why the ending was what it was.

    Overall pros:
    . Ellie's section of the game- overall story including relationships with characters and flashbacks.
    . Look of the game
    . Attention to detail
    . Great soundtrack
    . Brilliant acting by all
    . Satisfaction of combat
    . Larger areas to look around
    . Amazing design (Characters, infected)
    . Extra dialogue (enemies communications, reacting to deaths)
    Cons:
    . Abby's story
    . Premature deaths
    . Pacing at points
    . Not great CPU
    . Sometimes overly coincidental
    . Poor character choices (Ellie leaving map for Abby for example)

What people are mad about is how the story was executed. How do you kill off the main character in the first 2 hours of the game. And the way he dies is so disrespectful to him. Then they make us play as the killer for 10 hours!? What a joke. They even failed to write a simple revenge story. Ellie kills everyone in her path, including a pregnant woman, but cant kill the killer of her father figure. 7 years waiting to be disappointed like this.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Game play was similar to the first installment., The graphics are just awesome. The plot and story went in a direction I honestly didn't expect, especially after waiting for 7 years. Some of the marketing tactics used to make a selling point for the game were misleading. In the first installment there was a big focus on character devopment and building an emotional bond between the player and the characters. This current installment came off like it was going to force you to have an emotional bond with Abby and friends. This would've been a more acceptable story line if some of the events were presented in a different order. More time was needed playing with Joel and Elle to allow players to fill the same nostalgia they felt for the first installment. If this happened and within the mist of Joel saving Abby there was the flashback to the end of the first installment and then a subtle transition to the charter Abby's flashback point of view there may have been some aple time to develop the emotional bond the game leads me to believe they wanted the player to have with Abby. If your upset your less like to try and focus on the trails and tribulations that Abby faced growing up and this greatly impacted the way players saw her character. Also, the impact of the violent acts to follow may have been better understood and wouldn't have garnered Abby that instant hate from the fan base I previously referred to. Thubk about it, who wants to play a game with a character you absolutely dispise and can't relate to? No one. There was also a change in the flashback in this installment that didn't mirror the actions that took place at the end of the first installment. So plot holes and just overall continuity of the story began to crumble. Another continuity issue was with the characters. Joel and Elle both were just doing things that based on the character development in the first installment doesn't match the actions/decisions they were making in this installment. It was like they were the same characters, but not really. So a lot of sequences that took place in the story felt forced. You end up just not caring about any of the characters that were not in the first installment and I believe that couldve been different with a change in the sequence of events/flashbacks. Lack of puzzles compared to the previous installment. The ending, I don't know, it seems like there was some confusion in the writing department as to how they really wanted the ending to be. Almost as of they wanted to kill Elle, but of that would have surely meant the end of this series. This very well may still be. We will all have to wait and see.

    Overall: 2/10 (I see no replay value for fans of the first installment)

    Game Play: 9/10 (similar to the previous installment w/minor hiccups here and there)

    Organization/Sequence of events: 1/10 (the player response didn't have to be forced, and character development could've been much better with just a few changes to the sequence of events)

    Story/Plot: 3/10 (initially started off as a good story, but the sequence of events just ruined the view of the story the writer wanted it to originally have)
    Graphics 9/10 (were just awesome just like the previous installment, although I thought the frame of Abby couldve been a little more polished. Should've had the appearance of being strong without being freakishly looking)

    Character Development 0/10 (when it comes to the time players have spent learning Joel and Elle compared to the newer characters...there just wasn't sufficient enough time to develop emotional bonds or gain a true understanding of those characters, thus no interest in them at all)

    Replayability 1/10    … Expand

    Bold story! Ignore the hate this is one of the best games of the generation. Naughty Dog took some serious risks and elevated storytelling in gaming.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is not about Revenge.
    This game is about the lack of forgiveness and the cry for blood.
    This game is about (for the most part) everybody out to do good, but convinced of that self image always ending up attacking others and seeking revenge on others.

    There is a deeper layer to this when the creators say "we feel like this story needed to be told".
    There is a deeper layer to almost every character of some importance or power being a woman.
    There is a deeper layer to almost non of them doing any better than the men.
    There is a deeper layer to almost every man dominant in the story being in the flashbacks.
    There is a deeper layer to Elli pretty much beginning the game with calling someone a "biggot".
    There is a deeper layer in players/fans calling this game out for being "made for SJWs".

    Among these layers are the facts that we are all just human, just because men are out of power (or in case of this game, dead) will not make the world a better place, women will light it on fire just as much. And there is also the fact that people will feel trigged, will start to look for a fight, because at first the woman dominated world with a lesbian protagonist that replaces the man sounds like tagged on to please "SJW" and the Media (Oscar bait in the movie world i suppose). But it's not. You got to look at these deeper layers. It's very well crafted.

    The biggest downside of the game is it's gameplay. It's great, it's fun, it's well don, it looks good... but sometimes you just want to be in the story, see what happens next and instead you have to cut through buildings for the next couple of hours. It kinda gets in the way. I can't wait to see what HBO dos with it's adaptation. This could become what "The Walking Dead" should have been.

    It's a great ride, try it... and see if you are willing to forgive, willing to not jump at the triggers the writers put in this game just for you to bark, just for you to go looking for a fight (albeit a less deadly one). This is a masterpiece.    … Expand

This game was one of the most intense, gut-wrenching, awe-inspiring experiences I have played through in my entire life. The story lives up to the masterwork of the first game. Although it isn't nearly as contained as the first, NaughtyDog weaves every gear together seamlessly to tell a story that I interpreted as Ellie fighting to find the strength to forgive. The stealth-action gameplay is a hefty improvement from the first one, as Ellie is more nimble and agile then Joel leading to quicker and smoother combat. The graphics are incredible. No need to say much on that end, everybody can see this. I love this game. I don't know what else I could say. This is a must-play.… Expand

    Gameplay is more or less the same as the previous chapter, the plot is simply WRONG

    I pushed through this games story after having to pause at the halfway point and completed it in 3 days. I want to break down this review down into story, characters, and gameplay. I also want to take into account the first game of this series since this is the sequel to that. If anyone is jumping into this game before EXPERIENCING the first game you will have wildly different viewsI pushed through this games story after having to pause at the halfway point and completed it in 3 days. I want to break down this review down into story, characters, and gameplay. I also want to take into account the first game of this series since this is the sequel to that. If anyone is jumping into this game before EXPERIENCING the first game you will have wildly different views because you are being introduced to characters for the first time.

    Story- I'd say about for the first 8 hours or so with thorough looting and scavenging for materials the story is fine. It transpired in a way that made sense. Then in the halfway point of this game and the pacing gets messed up in a way that makes the player feel like they just got sent back to level 1. Not only does it feel bad to feel like you have to start from the beginning, but it also feels completely irrelevant. They try to force you into seeing the bad guys story and fail at it. Now after that is over the pacing gets even worse where this a random break in the action and then you jump back into the action and the game ends in about an hour after that. The ending is probably worse than the pacing because basically it makes everything ellie went through in the entire game pointless, a waste of time.

    Characters- I think this is the worst part about this game. All new characters introduced are bland and the game never does a good job of getting you to like these characters for who they are as people and not just because of their sexuality. This game seems to think that because of a character's sexuality they for some reason are filled with personality, they're not. Beliefs, morals, actions, behavior, inner thoughts, and relationships, things like this truly build a character. Whenever a character died in this game I never cared. The only time I ever felt like I cared about these characters were in flashbacks between joel and ellie.

    Gameplay- it is identical to the first game. The AI is not very intelligent. If you're quick and don't stand idle behind the same area for too long you can run and gun situations very easily. The AI will lose your location if you just kill a target and run to a different hiding spot. I played on moderate difficulty which is the normal difficulty and I never found myself struggling to find resources as I checked everything whenever I could. The audio is terribly loud, I played using a playstation platinum headset I would sometimes confuse my own footsteps despite crouching and tilting my analog stick very slightly. Also if an enemy attacks you from behind prepare to take huge amounts of damage because the camera makes it impossible to see anything that isn't in front of you because of the position it is locked into. The gameplay is its only good quality I would say but only if you completely strip away the characters, motives, and story completely from your mind.

    I would like to include that I had two other people I knew playing this game. One of them my cousin and the other my best friend since the 3rd grade. Both of them were ecstatic for this sequel preparing it to hit their GOTY for 2020. I luckily finished it before both of them so I hopped on PSN chat to hear the reactions of the ending from my best friend who was so frustrated that he called his other close friend to tell him not to buy the game. My best friend also experienced the feeling of wanting to stop playing halfway through the game because of what was happening but pushed through to see if it redeemed itself in the end. My cousin on the other hand, while he didn't like the second half, was not dreading it as much as my best friend and I did. He remained fairly positive until the end and when he watched the ending and the credits roll he said on his stream "I'm not gunna lie, I'm kinda salty"

    We all loved the first game especially for the characters and the relationship between them. This second game comes nowhere near the level of the first game in that factor alone so if you're a fan of the first I highly doubt you will like this game by the time credits roll.

    Do not believe people saying this game is getting review bombed. Undoubtedly some of the reviews are very salty remember that these were people who were huge fans of this series and these characters. They feel cheated, angry, whatever the case is. If you don't believe that I completed it you're welcome to check my trophy list at deadlysin12.

    Final verdict: you're better off watching this game on youtube or twitch because you will not enjoy your experience by the time credits roll you will have regretted purchasing this game. I know I did and so did my best friend. This game is absolutely not a 10/10 or a masterpiece.

    Una obra maestra. Es uno de los mejores juegos de la generación, junto con Red Dead Redemption 2 y The Witcher 3.
    El título es una exquisitez jugablemente, con un gameplay cuidado al extremo (excepto algunos errores puntuales de la IA), excelente diseño de niveles, que aprovecha como ningún otro la verticalidad de los diferentes escenarios, recompensando la exploración, con    Una obra maestra. Es uno de los mejores juegos de la generación, junto con Red Dead Redemption 2 y The Witcher 3.
    El título es una exquisitez jugablemente, con un gameplay cuidado al extremo (excepto algunos errores puntuales de la IA), excelente diseño de niveles, que aprovecha como ningún otro la verticalidad de los diferentes escenarios, recompensando la exploración, con coleccionables, recursos, notas y anotaciones. A lo largo de su historia se representan infinidad de escenarios muy diferentes entre sí, que le aporta frescura al juego a pesar de repetir bastante algunas situaciones, principalmente, zona con enemigos y uso de sigilo para limpiarla y avanzar. Así y todo, en ningún momento se me hizo repetitivo, sobre todo teniendo en cuenta que se plantean también muchas situaciones novedosas, incluyendo escenas esriptadas que le aportan originalidad y ritmo al juego.
    El nivel gráfico es impresionante, al nivel de RDR2, con escenarios hermosamente detallados, el nivel de las animaciones es claramente de lo mejor que se haya visto jamás. Detalles en las expresiones faciales, o ver como nuestro personaje amartilla el arma al mantener el modo apuntado brevemente, son increíbles, pero también es ver la aglidad cuando van corriendo y se tira al piso, o cuando escala una soga o simplemente cuando rompe una ventana. También quiero destacar el nivel de inmersión, sobre todo en situaciones tensas que afrontamos principalmente en lugares cerrados y oscuros.
    En cuanto a la banda sonora, también es espectacular, el trabajo de Santaolalla se mantiene a un nivel altísimo durante todo el juego, un trabajo impecable.
    Por último voy a hablar sobre la historia, que quizás es el punto que más controversia ha generado. La historia del juego es adulta, es sombría y dura. Habrá gente a la que le gustará y gente a la que no, pero funciona, mantiene al jugador interesado hasta el final, es coherente y tiene un mensaje claro. Es admirable el riesgo que ha tomado Naughty Dog al elegir este camino, y lo hace de forma magistral, en el sentido de que recorremos el camino viviendo las dos caras de la moneda, y aunque no estemos de acuerdo con las desiciones que se van tomando, no es nuestra historia la que se cuenta, es la historia de sus protagonistas y en ese sentido nada se puede reclamar.
    Para concluir, solamente puedo decir que como juego, TLOU 2 es espectacular, una experiencia 100% recomendable para quien sea capaz de aceptar la historia que se cuenta, tal como se cuenta.

    Los gráficos son magníficos. La historia aunque no supera a la del primer juego es bastante buena en general, Abby es un excelente personaje. En ciertos momentos incluso puede ser más querida que Elie quien nos dejó encantados en el primer juego.
    En conclusión, este es un juego buenísimo, una jugabilidad preciosa gráficos buenísimos y una buena historia entretenida.

They butchered a game that was designed incredibly good but uggh the storyline is incredible weak!

    An absolute failure of story writing and narrative execution. Forcing players into decisions they and the character would never make. Forcing players to play as the most despised character and then trying but failing to force the player to have sympathy for said character. I am so sorry for wasting my time with such a poorly designed game.

    This game is a roller coaster, fitting of its post-apocalyptic setting.

    This game purposefully makes it hard to "look for the light in the darkness", which I'm not sure makes me feel love or disappointment in the end... but that is the point, which I deeply appreciate as part of its design.

    I really hate to see so many people bashing this game (many of whom did so before even having time to finish the game). As a huge fan of the TLoU, I was not disappointed. This was a fantastic sequel, which I had a hard time putting down.    … Expand

    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]
