    The range of emotions I felt playing this game has me in awe, I sat watching the credits and accompanying score in their entirety with tears in my eyes.

    Imagine being told how a magic trick is done, watching it being performed anyway and afterwards believing it was real magic.

    That’s what this is.


    People giving this low scores are either not playing it at all and just jumping on a hatewagon, or too emotionally immature to see it for what it is, a masterclass in storytelling and a watershed moment in gaming history.    … Expand

Gameplay, graphics and the character animation is absolutely fantastic, one of the best for the ps4 however the story has some many holes in it and I feel was very disrespectful to the fans of Joel and Ellie, why would anyone want to play as abby after she has tortured and murdered Joel, and especially for as long as you do play as abby, also another kick in the teeth for fans is the blatant lies that they did by showing scenes with an older Joel to make you think he is the game for a long time to then find out it is all flashbacks, it's a big shame as this game with a even a couple changes in the story would have been phenomenal.… Expand

I was just in a random arcade filled with all sorts of perfectly detailed machines and games. Some of the complaints I've seen are just so bizarre. You're ok with killing hundreds of humans but it bothers you to kill an attack dog? I think there's a bit of generational disconnect going on here that parallels our political environment. Unfortunately a large portion of people can't separate their political know-it-all behavior from enjoying a video game and that's just awful for them.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all, the devs at Naughty Dog need commending for the sheer quality of The Last of Us Part II, never have I seen such a graphical masterpiece coming from my PS4! This game brings smiles, tears, fear, shock and disbelief. It is a rollercoaster of emotion that is certainly hammered down in it’s final hours. It is unrelenting in regards to the revenge and hate aspect it’s quite clearly portraying, this game is certainly not for the faint hearted. The story, albeit a little skewed, is fantastic for the most part and the new character Abby, as much as people don’t seem to like her... I enjoyed her arc. Abby very much symbolises what Ellie has gone through and ultimately, both Abby and Ellie are as good and as bad as each other. The downside to this game would be the length of which you play as Abby, but other than that the game is golden. The negative reviews are certainly from people who haven’t taken the time to play the game through to it’s end and let the story sink in, this game is certainly a contender for GOTY if not GOTG! Neil Druckmann and Co have done a fantastic job with this title and the voice acting is 100% perfect! My only hope is that a Part III follows to wrap up the story once and for all! The Last of Us Part II as well as it’s predecessor are fine examples of deep, emotionally envoking story telling and I hope this trend continues going forward! Well done again Naughty Dog! You have earned this!… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Disregard the 0/10s. If someone personally hated every aspect of the story, every word that came out of the character's mouths; it still can't be a 0. People are willing to throw aside the game-play, graphics and animation because this is a sequel that gives all who played the first installment very intense emotions. I myself, was affected very strongly by the opening of the game. For a few moments, it wasn't a game anymore. Fixated on the screen, I played the game from start to finish in one sitting. But, even though I'm giving the game a strong 10/10, I did experience what those who gave it a 0 did. Watching Joel die was gut wrenching. We all cared about Joel, some of us cared more than we thought. This masterpiece doesn't get to be brought down because some of us can't handle our emotions. Would you prefer Ellie kill a barley alive Abby and leave a child to die? Would you prefer we turn Ellie into the monster she was hunting all along? Those who give 0/10s don't think about it because they can't see past our dead friend.… Expand

I managed to avoid spoilers and I enjoyed the story, the gameplay was similar enough to the first game that I found it easy to get back into but there was enough new weapons and gameplay mechanics that it still felt like an upgrade from the first.

    The game is a technical marvel, but the story is off-putting, and not because it has anything to do with the first installment of the franchise. Even if you've never played the first game, the second is a travesty. Reading critic reviews, they tend to fall back on the old trick of saying the game's bleak idiom "is not for everyone" or that "some people just don't get it". Some even claim that distaste for the game is due to misogyny or insensitivity to gender/sex/sexuality issues. I think that's lazy and pretentious.

    In order to play this game and enjoy it you need to have a marked lack of empathy. You need to be something of a masochist. That's not why I play a game. Certainly, difficulties in games are welcome, as are moral dilemmas, but you can't have a game that strings them together so poorly that all the characters feel two-dimensional and thoroughly loathsome.

    Game play is excellent, the visuals are stunning, physics are extraordinary, and I know it's a "survival" game. Yet, I hated absolutely every character in it, then hated myself for having had to go along with the script and not being able to play the game as I would have preferred.

    -The gameplay is stressed out in every detail and ingenuity.

    -A very brutal but intense story that you can't miss a moment.

    All of these things combine on a very high level to form this top notch video game.

    I don’t know why everyone is giving it such bad scores. It’s an amazing game. Just because you don’t enjoy the story doesn’t mean it justifies the whole game being bad. The amount of detail and care that went into the game shows so much in the gameplay and the environments. Other sequels only wish they could be this good.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The reason why I'm giving it a 1 is because the story was terrible. Why would Joel say his name to a bunch a random strangers he just met and also why did Tommy say that you can come our place and restock to a group of random people. Then the worst part is when you play as Abby you will have to choke Ellie out which felt very uncomfortable. The whole Revenge plot was just absolutely GARBAGE. Why would Ellie KILL hundreds of people that didn't have to do anything with Joel's death just to get to Abby only to then let Abby go at the end??? You can see that this game tried portray as if Ellie is the main villain in this story and Abby the hero. Literally nothing happens to Abby in this game she got what she wanted and Ellie loses EVERYTHING, friends, family and what she was fighting for. The game did get boring on some parts but the gameplay and graphics are pretty good. If i see Abby in Last of us part 3 I am not buying the game. Not worth £55 to be honest.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It’s really sad that I have to give a 10 when I wanted to give an 8.9 to this game bc a bunch of people want a Hollywood-like game where nothing matters, there’s only blood and vengeance and a **** ton of violence. Dude if you want that, go play uncharted or saints row or GTA. This game made me hate a character then love it by the end. Spherical characters like Abby are rare in any type of entertainment form (movies, books, games, etc). The only thing that would make me rate this game an 8.9 and not a 10 is how they made Abby look like a villain, following a mutation where she looks like a good guy, then it ends by the game spitting on your childish face that there are no villains or heroes, there are just people trying to survive. Just like Joel. However, when they try to do the same thing with Ellie, she begins the game like a Hero (opposite To Abby) then she turns into a genocidal maniac (for her own reasons, I guess), making her look like a person living in an apocalypse.But the game finishes with her looking like a villain. It’s incoherent as to what happened to Abby. Don’t like it. It’s an irrational conclusion. The very very final scene should’ve been better. All in all, Joel’s death meant that he was trying to be better so he could have his redemption towards Ellie (remember their talk on the day previous to his death — also, that justifies why he was dumb to fall into a trap TLOU 1 Joel wouldn’t. He was trying to be kinder to have his redemption with Ellie). Conclusion: people crying over “Joel deserved better” or “I wanted to kill Abby” didn’t get the point of the game that there are no villains nor heroes and Joel was an **** to other people, so what he really deserved was an according death. I’m happy and satisfied with it. If you didn’t get it, you’re just being too emotional or straight up childish. Grow the **** up you ****… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I absolutely loved the game.
    Even though the story is not as deep as the first game, this sequel prevails with a dark story worthy of a post-apocalyptic world. In this game we focus more on the world that the human has created after more than 20 years of outbreak day (as it is called in the game), the way in which the different clans and groups of people that have been created try to survive and thrive, and the general physical state of the world (which turns out to be beautiful). The graphics are impressive and the gameplay is very fluid and full of action.
    Now the characters. The fact that you can see the two parts of the same story from different perspectives makes you understand a lot about the psychology of the characters and the people in general. Yes, Joel is brutally murdered. But in the end, everything is a consequence of the actions he did in the past (referring to the end of Last Of Us). It teaches us that in that world nobody will have a slight chance of a fair trial. It's the survival of the fittest at its finest. Both Ellie and Abby's actions are understandable, especially when you get into a game that creates a post-apocalyptic world on par with the TV series The Walking Dead.
    Revenge takes little if not almost no importance in the end because both characters realize that there are other things to fight for in a world where anarchy reigns. Throughout the game you encounter infected (which after a long time in this imaginary world tend not to be as important as they were before), people with axes and hammers, clans as organized as the military itself, and men, women and children trying to survive. At this point you realize that when they told that you would get uncomfortable playing the game they were right. As Bill said beautifully in the first game: “You know, as bad as those things are, at least they’re predictable. it’s the normal people that scare me.”
    Excellent game, I will play it again.    … Expand

The story is a generic revenge plot and the game beats you over the head with revenge being bad and violence is not the way. It's just so overwhelmingly bleak. The characters have no charm or a personality. They are there to basically demonize Ellie and Joel and try to make you feel bad for killing the ones responsible for his murder except for Abby. Ellie sacrifices so much, got a lot of people killed, destroys her body, damns her soul. All for nothing just to let her live and return to an empty home with nothing to show for it. The only two character I found interesting were Lev and Yara. Lev being trans and wanting to be a warrior and not some house wife, and his sister Yara who would never abandon her brother. The visuals and gameplay are really good. The action set pieces when you're running away from a horde of enemies or a chase on foot are gaming highlights. The melee has a savage feel to it, Every fight is a brutal duel to the death all the character fight dirty. gouge out eyes, smash their heads into walls bite off fingers. In conclusion the story leaves much to be desired and will piss off a lot of fans but the gameplay and visuals are enjoyable.… 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.
