    This game is not what i hoped for. I found official trailers were misleading (specially in reference to one of the main characters) and game play is pretty much the same as the first game , no major changes there except the jump button. Story is just OK specially from Chapter 7 onwards, the main quest stopped making sense, from there on it really felt like a sub-standard side story /This game is not what i hoped for.

Story is just OK specially from Chapter 7 onwards, the main quest stopped making sense, from there on it really felt like a sub-standard side story / quest. I think they ran out of ideas of how to make this game into a 20+ hours adventure so they just dragged the story in senseless manner.
    Overall this game is a massive disappointment. I should have waited for this to go on sale :(

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I used to be the hater for this game after the spoilers leaking, i called it Garbage, The trash of us2... However, i recently ordered my PS4 Limited Edition TLOU2. I give the game a try, and after 2 hours of playing, I addicted to it. Seriously, the game is a masterpiece, the story is driven logically and matured. The main reason why people got mad because of Joel's death and How Ellie let Abby go after she killed everyone in her path to get to Abby. BUT, when you play it and try to understand the message, you will love the game so much. First, Abby doesn't know who Joel is, she doesn't bond with the man like US, the only thing she knows is that Joel killed her father. Therefore, that explains the way she tortures and smashes the golf club, especially the last hit when she has a flashback of her father's death. I am sure that MYSELF or YOU, especially in that post apocalypse world, would hunt anyone down if he or she kills our parent and give the killer the slowest death. Second, Ellie killed everyone to get to Abby. The point is Ellie barely sees the message " Revenge is a fool's game " after she killed Nora, then Owen, and Mel - a pregnant woman made her actually realize it. You can clearly see that in Ellie's eyes and her shakind hands, she wanted to stop. After coming back to the theater, she and Dina, Jesse, Tommy were already ready to go back Jackson and left everything behind. But Abby got to the theater and killed Jesse, which was understanable because Ellie and Tommy killed every single one of Abby's friends. Despite all that, Abby spared Dina because of Lev told her not to and also let both Dina and Ellie get away. After several years of setting down, Ellie still couldn't forget Joel's bloody smashed head. So she goes find Abby but not to REVENGE, but to find an ending. That explains why she didnt kill Abby when she had a flashback of emotional Joel sitting with the guitar. The ending is Ellie finally can let go of eveything. The only way to find peace is to forgive and let go. The last scene of the masterpicece, Ellie said she wanted to give it a try about forgiving Joel and Joel replied he would like that. In the end, they both did! A truly, deeply and matured story. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Jogo fantástico e impactante. The last of us part 2 é capaz de colocar na pele de Ellie e fazer você ter uma montanha russa de emoções, como por exemplo, ódio, tristeza, saudade, amor...
    O jogo é tecnicamente uma obra prima, com gráficos insanos e um realismo jamais visto nos vídeo games. Logíco que tem um probleminha ou outro ali, mas nada tira o brilhantismo e a coragem da Naughty Dog com essa obra.

    O jogo tem que ser sentido e jogado. É preciso prestar atenção aos detalhes. Principalmente nas expressões faciais fantásticas. Olhares dizem muito nesse jogo. é preciso entender a profundidade psicológica e emocional dos personagens para entender a real mensagem do jogo. É um jogo para quem tem maturidade.

    Emotional roller coaster ride, alot of twist and turns , great improvement from the last game, good characters, graphics, sound is far better than any other game I played. Justice has been done to all characters the story is interesting never make you bore
    But the length of game feels like it's stretched a bit long. Must play game for every PS4 owner

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have never played a game that made me so emotional and think about it for so long like this one, its been 3 days since a finished it and im feeling depressed and cant stop crying if i see certain scenes in the game. Talking about the game itself and not about me, its a goddamn masterpiece in terms of technical stuff; its incredible how good its made that sometimes it seems like ur watching a movie instead of a game. About the story, i really loved how the games plays with ur emotions and if u let it do it you wont regret it cause it makes u question everything that happens in the game and changes ur point of view to the point that u no longer know what u want the story lead to. The only thing a could blame this game is making u play with Abby for so long but it kinda makes sense so u would see her point of view and realise she is not the bad character of the story and Ellie isnt the good one either. I dunno it has so many details that make u really feel the game that when u finish it u feel as u lost a beloved one. Expand

    Aunq la muerte de joel eso si,esta bastante mal hecha,joel q era un tipo desconfiado entra en una sala sin armas cuando el resto de gente q no conoce lleva armas,ahi empieza un poco mal pero ,en fin,podrian haberlo hecho mejor para capturarlo.
    Partiendo de eso la premisa era redonda y a mi me estaba encantando ver como ellie se iba cargando a los asesinos de joel y se iba vengando mientras iba progresando su amor por dina y viceversa,hasta ahi la historia estaba siendo brutal y bestial,hasta q aparece abby q mata a jesse y casi a tommy por q si y empieza su historia q es aburridisima,era demasiado mala y no me estaba gustando para nada,corta por completo el ritmo ¡a mi q co** me importa la vida de esta si es la q ha matado a joel,q le den!entiendo q pongais un momento para contarnos q su padre era el doctor q iba a operar a elie¡pero hasta ahi,ya vale,no necesitamos ver lo demas,no intresa,y tras un largo transcurso de tiempo tras contar su vida se vuelve al presente donde esta a punto de matar a ellie ,y es q encima el jugador tiene q manejar a abby para tratar de matar a ellie,espera¿¡Que!?y es q encima casi logra su cometido pero luego la deja con vida,y nada,pasan los años y ellie y dina estan en una casa viviendo como pareja con la niña y ese mismo dia ellie tiene un desmallo donde vuelve a vivir como matan a joel,unos dias despues va tommy diciendo q sabe donde esta abby y dina discute con tommy por q no quiere volver a ello,por la noche ellie se levanta,hace su mochila y se va siendo antes detenida por dina,pero le responde q ya ni come ni duerme ni es capaz de vivir por lo q tiene q ir a por ella aunq dina queda decepcionada pero le deja irse,y tras casi morir al llegar para matarla(q la tiene perfecta para hacerle cortes y q sufra lentamente por lo q hizo)la desata,casi se van en lancha,pero tras una pelea en la q ellie se queda sin el meñique y el dedo corazon estando a punto de ahogarla decide parar y dejarla vivir...al volver a su casa dina no esta ni la hija y va a donde la guitarra para intenter tocar pero ya no puede,encima salta otro flashback donde esta con joel donde vuelven a hablar del hospital y q elie insiste q deberia haberla dejado morir ,pero joel dice q si dios le diera otra oportunidad,volveria a hacer lo mismo,entonces elie le dice q entonces le intentara perdonar,otro salto al presente y ellie deja la guitarra contra el marco y se va de la casa y fin,enserio....todo pintaba genial,elie llendo a vengarse de todos los q mataron a joel,q hubieran puesto a mas si eso para alargar el juego,poner a mas blancos,pero no esto tiiiiio,ademas q del polvo del owen y la abby sobraba,yo me esperaba uno de ellie y de dina,¿¡pero de estos 2!?¡pero q co* me importan es q agghh,es q enserio,final malo,malisimo,si es q casi lloro al final,pero de lo malo q es,para q luego diga la gente q el FFXIII es malo,por q es q este juego enserio....como puede algo empezar tan epicamente para acabar de forma tan desastrosa,lei por ahi q nauthy dog reescribio el final,podriais haberos ahorrado la parte donde controlas a abby durante toda la otra mitad el juego por q vamos,el final y lo de abby es un completo sinsentido y desproposito total,sino¿Para q fueron ellie y dina?¿Para q fue tommy tambien al principio?ademas de meter frases del final en los trailers y ademas trailes engañosos,por que en ninguno se ve de que haya que manejar a abby cuando realmente la tienes q manejar,pesimo final.Si querian alargarlo q hubieran puesto a mas gente para q ellie los matara e hiciera algo similar a lo q hizo joel en el 1 de atrapar 2 y torturarlos hasta matarlos para sacar mas pistas y si eso en un momento cuando volviera a la "base"por decirlo de alguna forma q se sintiera perdida y q dina la ayude a volver a reencontrarse,por q tambien la escena de sexo con abby y owen la veo innecesaria por completo,poner una de ellie y dina en una de las veces q ellie llega algo perdida lo veo hasta entendible. En fin,q era una historia q empezaba bestial y buena para acabar siendo desde la mitad lo peor q hubiera poder ocurrido,por q el destrozo q le hacen a Ellie como personaje da rabia,como un personaje carismatico en el 1 acaba de una de las peores formas posibles en la historia de los videojuegos no pudiendo vengarse y perdiendo todo

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game...kinda sucked. I loved the first game so much, but the writing for this was so bad and the characters weren't interesting. And after killing a major character with ZERO buildup 5 minutes into the game, plot armor carried the story forward, that and random events and violence with no name AIs. I stopped playing 2/3rds of the way through because i was so bored. The best parts of the games are the flashbacks with Ellie being Ellie, and Joel being Joel. This game was so boring, and 7 years later, it has the exact same mechanics as the first and adds nothing new, can be fun, but there's no story and boring ass characters, so it becomes extremely repetative insanely quickly. I constantly found myself wanting to kill Abby (and doing so) just to get back to maybe some interesting part of the game. Hell they could've made Dina and Tommy really interesting but they said screw that, I'm going to force feed you the most terribly written character of all time. Druckmann should be ashamed of himself...graphics were great and AI enemies were smart though, which is why I gave it a 5. Expand

El final creo que fue justo para los dos personajes pero fue un poco forzado el capitulo anterior antes de llegar al final. Fuera de eso, creo que es un gran juego, pero no excelente en cuanto a la historia, pudieron recortar unas horas y no pasaba nada. En fin, yo le daría un 85/100. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As much as I wanted to love this game I just couldnt. My boyfriend loves the game but me not so much. The Tlou2 doesnt hold true to the main character: Joel. Yea he just saves this random girl from being clicker bait with Tommy and brought her back to her friends and gives out their names but he also knows how notorious he is when he’s done a lot of **** after the breakout. After being saved from the man who killed her father she needs to kill him. Understandable I suppose but thats not how you kill a main and beloved character and in the very beginning of the game. Later as we play as Abby she saves 2 kids because they saved her. Where was the same even slight compassion for Joel? The lies and false advertising is another thing apparently Joel was still supposed to be alive. All I’m saying is this story could’ve gone a different way if they didnt force feed Abby down our throats to make her like-able. I get her side of the story, yea she lost way more in a few days but it was still ultimately her fault. None of her friends would've been killed if she either killed all the people in Joels party(probably didnt want to end up like him) or tortured him for a few days and let him go cause he did save her. Maybe this story couldve been about getting revenge on Abby for torturing him or not. This story could’ve been better. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After playing 48 hours, two playthroughs and gaining the platinum trophy I am finally ready to let out my opinion of this conserverial sequel.

    Before I get into the negative I will like to start with what I loved about the game.

    1. Ellies half of the game had the most interesting part of the story and best cutscenes. When she gets to bounce off side characters like Dina ( who was one of my favorite side characters) it really showed a great side of Ellie.

    2. Abbys gameplay was the most fun since it was more of my play style. While Ellie sneaks around Abby is an army of one. With a flamethrower, hunting rifle and pipe bombs nothing can stop her. She can literally just punch an infected to death and it is brutal.

    3. The one thing everyone praises this game for even if you just hated it is the graphics. This game is beyond beautiful. The music is always perfect for what's happening.

    Now let's get into what I disliked

    1. This game just dragged on and on. It tricked me I believe like three times where I thought I was close to the end oh no I still have 10 hours left alright okay here is the ending nope. Not going to lie got pretty frustrated and just wanted to finish it already. In fact where Ellie and Dina are in that awesome farm house then Tommy comes in telling her where abby was last seen . Honestly I would of been okay with the last scene Ellie going off into the night leaving Dina sad and feeling alone. Then bam alright setting up for the next game.

    2. The actual ending was just anti climatic. Ellie travels two states fights of this evil rattlers frees Abby from dying on the beach lets her grab a boat about to let them go and then goes no can't let you go. Okay has this big fight about to drown her and then was like nah go. Okay go backs to the farmhouse and no duh Dina is gone.

    All in all it is not better than the first one and doesn't add much to mechanics/gameplay. I dont think its the worst game this year and I understand where they were going with the whole revenge thing it just didn't quite land.

    What makes a game "good"? I think that's a big source of the divide here. Do people have to like a game for it to be good ? Your answer to that will probably answer what you rate this game. (And I don't mean "enjoy" or even "have fun"--LIKE is my very deliberate word choice)

    I absolutely loved the first one. And I also quite liked the second one, but not as much. I know because I'm not

    I absolutely loved the first one. And I also quite liked the second one, but not as much. I know because I'm not as compelled to play it 4 more times. HOWEVER, from an objective point of view, I think it's on the exact same level as the first (with added ambition and literary techniques like symbolism and motifs). Very minor pacing issues in the middle, but it accomplishes what it aims to do PERFECTLY. And for that, I personally think it is very easily a 10.

    It has low ratings here I think because people didn't like what happened. Plain and simple. Whereas critics are critiquing the game itself, not projecting their own desires, hence the MASSIVE divide on this site. Nothing wrong with that I suppose, just depends on why you, as the consumer, buy games in the first place. It was well worth my money. Though it may very well may be a waste of yours.

    P.S. Was there false advertising? Yes. Does that detract from the artistic work? Of course not. It detracts from reliability of the marketing department.

    Unpopular opinion: by the end, Abby's character was *better* than both Joel and Ellie. At least she was attempting to redeem herself despite her rage...

    If half the gamers review bombing this game were a bit more 'Abby' they'd be able to move up out of thier mothers' basements and facilitate a half decent discussion about the game.

    I think that this game has excellent graphics. No doubt about it, but i dont know why is everyone hating it so much. I know that everyone was looking forward to play as Joel and Abby killed Joel in the second hour of the game but they make you play as her and you can see her past and story of why did she kill Joel. Maybe there could be more about her past, not just 15 minutes, but at least for me she is a good character and i understood her why did she do that. And Joel was the one who killed her father.

    Lets talk about the end of the game:
    If I was Ellie, i would not listen to Tommy and i would not try to kill Abby again. She had a family. But ok, understandable. She traveled to find her and thats what happened. And there, in my opinion, should be a chance to make your decision, if you want to kill her or not. I dont know what you would do, but i would have troubles making this decision.

    Dont hate me for my opinion but i dont know why are people mad at the story, the last of us part 2 is not perfect i just dont think this game deserves such a hate.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. IF I CAN SAY ONE THING IT’S DON’T LET REVIEWS STOP YOU FROM PLAYING THE GAME

    I hadn’t played the original, so when this game came out decided to play them back to back for a seemless ‘TLOU’ experience. Enough has been said about the gameplay, which is excellent although not much has changed from the original..... it would have been nice for ND to have come up with something other than a nominal ‘jump’ button. Regarding the controversial story, maybe playing the games one after another made the death of Joel easier for me. I hadn’t waited 7 years to see him again, In fact it was about 24 hours after I saw him slaughter some defenceless surgeons and steal Ellie - potentially damning mankind for eternity. For me the first game was excellent - and the second game picked up exactly where that ended. Sure, they may have tried harder for more ‘shock moments’ - but the character building was realistic for a post apocalyptic work of anti-hero’s. My only true criticism of this game is the length. I was fortunate enough to have the time to play through both games in quick succession, but for a casual gamer playing a few hours here and there this would take months.A Also I felt the ending should have given the player the decision as to whether Abby lived or died - similar to Trevor in GTA. A real test as to whether ND had done enough to make the player forgive Abby (I would have killed her for sure)

    I’m disappointed that in a few years time, those who don’t know the controversy around this game will see this review score and think this is an average game - because love it or hate it average is certainly not what it is.

    There were moments in the Last of Us 2 that I felt genuinely torn apart, conflicted, dreading what is about to happen, and what I am about to do.

    It took me to unexpected turns when I thought I knew what's around the corner, and then dragged me into that hell. It was gut wrenching and heart breaking.

    Somehow, it manages to turn someone you immediately wanted to kill for their despicable act they committed, to desperately wanting to save them.

    Video games often get over looked, but for me games like this? No other piece of literature or entertainment gives me the same experience, the same emotional journey. No movie, no book, nothing comes close.

    The first game had an everlasting impact on me seven years ago. I waited years for the follow up and it delivered something I didn't know I wanted.

    What's more, it didn't just give us a dark, nuanced exploration of consequence and guilt, but two totally badass, relatable female lead characters that broke every stereotype and taboo.

    There's no downplaying what Naughty Dog has achieved on a technical level. The graphics and gameplay are absolutely stunning and incredible. The customization on the way you want to play your playthrough is far ahead of anything Naughty Dog has put out before.

The story is heartbreaking and engrossing, the perspective switch half through managed to humanize what could have been a generic villain.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So… I’ve finished the last of us part II today…. The game is a freaking masterpiece! Once again ND teaches how to make a GOTY (for me). And one of the best things for me is that this game shows so much respect to the first game that we loved. Let me start by the graphics there simply the best graphics that you can see in a video game right now… The game play is amazing very improved from the first last of us, I love that they added so much more stuff in the crafting and the exploration part! I loved the idea of semi open world parts that they added to the game. I really like that we can see what Ellie is thinking about everything in her journal. The notes that we find add so much more to the game… The AI has improved a lot since the first game, it’s not perfect but it’s improved! The sounds in the game are simply so realistic and amazing! The music is art, although I would like some more! And last but not least the amazing story! There are no words to describe the story in this masterpiece! The last of us part II it’s not a game… it’s an experience, it’s a feeling, it’s art! It’s the game that leaves you with your mouth open for you only to say what did I just played… All the cut scenes of the game are breathtaking. Please do yourself a favor and go experience this masterpiece! Congratulations to ND and a big thank you for giving us the last of us part II! Expand

Needless to say, I was hyped for it's sequel. Waited years for it. Even protected myself from the leaks only to experience it in all its glory. Boy was I in for a shock. The game has an extremely repetitive combat system. To me its a downgrade from the previous game. The graphics were, well, the best I have ever seen. The story though, is what killed the game for me. I don't know if some of the plot decisions made were purely for shock value or if some other reasons were involved as well. But the story was horrible. The new characters were bland and uninteresting. The old ones were out of character. The plot twists did not make any sense. A mess of a story.
    If I could've rated below zero, I would've gladly done so. I wish some other game looked this good.

    The game is a near perfect follow up to it's predecessor. I could stop there
    It is a kick to the stomach and punch to the gut in the story department at first, but it then dawns on you... this is the apocalypse, it's not going to be sunshine and rainbows. It also challenges your positions and beliefs like the first game did, adding a whole other context to the game once you get finish it.

    Plays great, looks great, that much is a given
    The only gripe I slightly have is the ending, it is good enough, but it could have used something more conclusive in my opinion. But I have warmed up significantly to it over time, and it is a very minor gripe. This is my current game of the year, (Not counting Fallen Order which was screwed over by coming out late last year)

Honestly when I first played it I had to sit on it for a while, in my head I gave it like a 7/10, between my emotions with Joels death and the amount of screentime on Abby I thought the game was quite flawed but still great. After thinking about it for days, looking at video essays and other opinions, I looked at my own opinion afterwards and honestly they weren’t flaws, it’s a complex game for sure but a welcome one, Abby was an interesting character and I realised Joel had more flaws than as a person than we had previously seen, Abby had good reason to hate Joel and Expand

    Ignore the angry nerds who came here and review bombed it, this game is excellent in almost every aspect. The narrative is the only drawback, and it's a big drawback, as it leaves much to be desired and also leaves you just picking your head wondering why they made certain narrative choices. Gameplay, music, atmosphere, mechanics are all second to none and it's definitely still worth playing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This was a dissapointment. Not because I expected a full fan-service game where Joel and Ellie would roam the world happy together, but because of the simplistic, naive and really Preachy writing that provides the player with zero choices (e.g. alternate endings) and zero critical thinking: it feels as if there is just someone that yells "ohh look how bad revenge is", "how can you do that" the whole time you play.

    The story does not have a steady pace, the dialogues are cringy and the characters (especially the secondary ones) seem to have lost their depth ad complexity (nothing like Bill, Sam, David or Riley of the first game).
    Joel and Tommy are completely out of character (They say their names to the strangers in the first minutes, really???) and Joel's death is just anticlimactic for the shock-value of it no build-up, nothing.

    We are forced to play as Abby, a character that the game reeally insists we have to like and sympathise with (some manipulative tricks here are ridiculous- see repetitive dog-petting while Ellie only kills dogs) and her gameplay takes up about 10-12 hours, almost half of the game, at a timing where there is so much anguish for what will happen to Ellie, that you simply want to be done with it and rush it. There were zero references on that aspect of the game, a really sneaky move by Naughty Dog, probably because they would be afraid of backlash that would reduce pre-orders.

    Lastly, the ending is ridiculous. No closure, no revenge, Abby gets away after having commited her revenge, while Ellie regrets it and loses everything nonetheless. I wouldn't mind if both protagonists died and we got to see a more Shakespearean ending of nemesis for the so called circle of violence; that would at least be interesting. Instead, we get another anticlimactic moment and a mild hint for a part-three, that will be depended on the sales of the second one I am sure. Pity.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Forgive me if this review is hard to understand. I'm not the best at writing. This is my personal take on the ending and why I believe the ending was fantastic. Ellie gained her humanity by not killing abby. She didn't kill someone out of revenge. It took ellie hitting rock bottom to realize that this viscous cycle of hatred just needed to end. It was over. Killing abby wouldn't bring joel back.


    Abby and ellie go through the same experiences, just at different times and they handled the situations differently. Abby got her revenge in a brutal way.... but she still felt empty. Killing joel wasn't the solution she thought it would be so ultimately she decides to go back and help Lev and Yara (the queen) as a desperate attempt at some kind of personal redemption. Also, her nightmares about the hospital continue after killing joel.... implying that getting revenge truly did not give her the closure she thought it would. Ellie murdering abby when she's just trying to take care of lev at this point (which is similar to joel taking care of ellie) would have taken everything from her. She would have lost every part of herself that made her human. She would have lost herself beyond redemption. She saw a chance to keep a part of herself (her logic, common sense, human decency, hope, humanity) by not killing abby, and she took it. She realized that the cycle had done nothing but cause death and loss to both her and abby. Abby lost mel, Owen, Nora, and Alice. Ellie lost joel, jj, jesse, and dina. And in a way, abby and ellie lost a part of themselves. Abby lost basically all of her humanity by actually taking revenge. Ellie lost a bit of her humanity and her common sense. She abandoned something she wanted more than anything (a happy family) just to continue the rage cycle. However, she didn't do the same thing they did, which gave her hope and humanity. She didnt continue the viscous cycle. She became better than abby and the other WLFs. She broke the hateful cycle. She made a choice to save what little bit of herself she could. In that moment, it wasn't a game about loss anymore. It was a game about hope and human decency.

    I loved that TLOU2 felt very much like the first one, but with some small tweaks like improved melee combat, some new weapons, enemies and abilities. I was extremely impressed by how the difference between Abby and Elie in combat style was presented, I knew I still played the same game, but it felt totally different.

    I need to say that graphics are amazing and that the mood is set very well, I really enjoyed running around that post apocalyptic world.

    TLOU2 is supposed to make you feel conflicted, angry, sad and in very rare cases happy. This approach in games usually comes across as soulless cliché story, but for me this game did it just right. This game even made my girlfriend cry a few times, which not a lot of games can achieve.

    Of course there are some small things that bugged me like some small bug here and there, or some of the character choices that I found rather stupid, but nothing really big.

    I'm truly sad that game receives so much hate, because I don't think it deserves it. For all of those who worked on this game I just want to say that you rock and you should be proud of what you achieved and what masterpiece you helped to build. Thank you for this amazing experience.

The game is beautiful graphically it is incredible to see how a PS4 can run that game, the city of Seattle despite not being an open world and not giving you the possibility of going back to a previous point it looks very very big almost as if you were in a real city , the story at the beginning is heartbreaking makes you mourn the death of Joel and makes you want to kill all those responsible, the game talks about revenge and being blinded by it can leave you empty inside and leave you with nothing making you lose what else you want in the end Ellie loses everything and you will feel that Ellie should have been more grateful to Joel. in short it is a game that you have to play if or if to decide if you like it or not since the end may leave you waiting for more but if you pay attention to how the characters feel you will understand what they are going through.

Graphics, Audio and Gameplay are all superb as is the voice-acting which is brilliantly tied into the facial expressions and emotions of the characters themselves making them very realistic. A special mention for the groundbreaking accessibility options that allow this game to be enjoyed by a much wider audience. My hat goes off to Naughty Dog for this. Unfortunately, that’s it for the good things about this game.

    LOTU I was a masterpiece because the story centred on the evolving relationship between Joel and Ellie who, in turn, both grew in our affections. We waited 7 years to continue the story with those characters who were close to our heart, then what happens? Not only does Joel get brutally murdered so early on but we are forced to play as his killer for half the game. Any attempt by ND to try and get us to empathise with Abby just fails miserably at this point and the motivation to continue playing the game just drops drastically. The final insult is the highly unsatisfactory ending to, what is overall, a very grim and depressing story which I have no desire to play through again.

    In short, the game had everything we wanted but the story.

    It was superb how they conducted the story. They ran away from the expected and did an incredible job putting you deeply on the skin of both characters side, making you understand their decisions. It's a perfect mix of feelings that you have during the journey.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The last of us part II is worth 9.9 points. There is no so-called white washing, but a description of a selfish Avenger Abby who has lost everything. The last forgiveness is to forgive Joel and untie her own heart knot. She saw Joel and her shadow in Abby and LEV, which also means that Ellie finally understood the sentence "if I have a second chance, I will do that again". In the process of recording her revenge in her diary, Allie kept revealing that she sometimes forgot about revenge, but felt guilty, She even thought that Joel would hope that she would not take revenge. She was full of contradictions about revenge. Later, she could not remember Joel's appearance clearly. Once she recalled the bloody scene, she grabbed Abby and recalled Joel's face. The night before she died, she said to Joel that I would never forgive you in my life, but I would like to give it a try, which is also for Abby. Finally, I went back to the farm and drew a picture of Joel playing the guitar in his diary, which was the perfect ending. Deduction: Jesse and Tommy's confused behavior. Expand

    The best narrative game I have ever had played. Unfortunately, its excellence clearly went over the heads of those with low reviews. Not only are the gameplay, mechanics, and visuals the best of this console generation, but the narrative is structured so that you feel for the characters and are completely drawn into their world.

It was the most immersive game I have ever played. The Last of Us Part II is arguably better than its predecessor with far superior mechanics and fun but heart-wrenching gameplay. Ignorance clearly got the best of many reviewers who were unwilling to tolerate the portrayal of lesbian and transgender characters and see the story for its excellence rather than its progressive character choices.

    An incredible experience. Always been a huge fan of TLOU since it first came out. I loved both the main game and Left Behind and played them both several times to platinum the game. I have always considered TLOU to be my favourite game and scrawled through every nook and cranny to find every detail possible for it. I recently just got a platinum on TLOUII and I loved every minute of it. ItAn incredible experience. Always been a huge fan of TLOU since it first came out. I loved both the main game and Left Behind and played them both several times to platinum the game. I have always considered TLOU to be my favourite game and scrawled through every nook and cranny to find every detail possible for it. I recently just got a platinum on TLOUII and I loved every minute of it. It was honestly one of the most emotional games I’ve ever played. It made me feel emotions that I have never felt in any other type of game. I’ve barely felt some of the emotions I’ve felt playing this game with some movies. It made me cry, laugh, tense, vindictive and remorseful, one emotion after the other. It was honestly such an emotional rollercoaster. When I finished the game, I couldn’t sleep properly for two nights over the emotions I felt. The music is unbelievable, which was always to be expected. It definitely helped with controlling my emotions. The graphics are out of this world. I have a Basic PS4, and it ran so smoothly with breath taking sceneries. The details are everything. I thought RDR2 took it to the next level but TLOUII ran with their ideas and elevated it even further. The hidden details, nods and metaphors to the first game were incredible. The character development was something else entirely. I really felt like I connected with these characters over time. No character trait or flaw was without reasoning. Even though this game doesn’t spell out every detail to you, it didn’t have to if you paid attention to the game, the background and the characters, the notes, etc. The acting and voice acting was nothing like I’ve ever seen before. Ashley Johnson blew me away with her acting for Ellie and brought it to the next level for me. The story, which is the controversial part here, was exactly the direction I expected them to take since I’ve dreamt of there being a sequel and it didn’t disappoint. It took my expectations and brought it to such an amazing place. The contrast between emotions being felt in the moment and the flashbacks were such a nice contrast, as well as being such heartfelt and deep moments to the story. There’s other things to note where they elevated the game: the combat was a huge improvement, the upgrades (both player and workbenches), stealth was a bigger focus and was more hashed out, the puzzles were improved, the AI was incredible and as a person with a disability, the accessibility was so touching to see. And there is so much
    More than could be added to this list. I don’t think I will ever experience a game like this again. But I hope I will.

    Nie rozumiem czemu tyle hejtu wylało się na tą grę. Gra w dobitny sposób pokazuje jaki świat postapo jest brutalny i że każdy może zginąć że wystarczy tylko się wychylić za osłony i można dostać kulkę (Manny). Wiem że Śmierć Joela wielu osobą się nie podobała bo np. Chcieli aby zginął w inny sposób np. Kogoś osłonił swoim ciałem ale nie jest tak i moim zdaniem dobrze jego Śmierć miała zrobić to że będziemy nienawidzić Abby i jej znajomych a gdy nią zaczniemy grać wszystko zrozumiemy czemu to zrobiła i że wcale nie jest taka zła . Mną wstrząsło to że w czasie kiedy Ellie zabija jej przyjaciół to Abby ratuje Yarę i Leva. Gdy Ellie może zabić Abby to ją zostawia tak jak Abby zostawiła ją i Dinę.Abby zaczęła opiekować się Levem jak Joel ellie . Co do samego zakończenia to myślę że Ellie najpierw wróciła do Jackson do Diny bo gdy jest na farmie to nie ma zesobą broni i ma inne ubranie. Myślę że poszła tam wybaczyć wkońcu Joelowi

    A very dark sequel to The Last of Us that kicks the player in the gut and never comprises its doom-and-gloom vision.

Yes, I'd probably do things differently with the story, but I'm not the author. Neil Druckmann and his production team have crafted a survival game that really pushes the limits of the PS4 and the drama of interactive entertainment. Lots of fans of the previous game will hate the decisions made. They'll complain about the finale. But if you're on board with Druckmann, then you'll experience one harrowing 30 hour journey. This sequel makes the first "Last of Us" look like a Disney movie in comparison. It is violent, creepy, morbid and filled with misguided characters that don't render any sympathy. Ellie is no longer the plucky person from the original game, but a broken person seeking revenge. The message that Druckmann tries to drive home falls a little flat at the climax, but he deserves kudos for pushing the genre. Gameplay-wise, this is the "The Last of Us" meets "Uncharted: The Lost Legacy" with even more variety of the infected. It's a huge game and very impressive although some would call it more-of-the-same. But as much of a threat as the "zombies" are, they're nothing but a backdrop to the human misery. This game is more about the result of cold-blooded revenge than anything else. It has the darkness of the Negan storyline from The Walking Dead and the coldness of a Cormac McCarthy novel. Many fans will find to be unappealing, but LOU 2 is also one of the best PS4 exclusives ever made. While not perfect, I would rate it with a 10 out of 10. . Expand

    Just finished after 31.5 hours. Amazing! I would give 9.5 because of the combat getting a bit repetitive. Thank you Naught Dog for taking this risk! Love every bit. Can’t wait for your next project :)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Un juego del que esperaba mucho tras lo que fue el primer juego (para mí una obra maestra) pero que me ha supuesto una de las mayores decepciones que jamás me he llevado con un videojuego. Aún así le he puesto un 7 porque el juego tiene una serie de puntos fuertes que me parecen indiscutibles.

    Lo bueno:
    - Visualmente es una maravilla. No solo por los gráficos tan bestias sino por el grandísimo nivel de detalles que podemos encontrar en todo el juego.
    - La jugabilidad, si bien es bastante continuista con respecto a lo que fue el primero, sigue funcionando muy bien y además han metido algunas cositas nuevas que se agradecen.
    - La crudeza del juego en los combates es magistral.
    - El juego te incita a la exploración y te recompensa por ello. No solo con suministros y coleccionables sino también con armas que de otro modo se pasarían por alto.

    Lo malo (todo a nivel argumental):
    - El maltrato continuo a Joel. No solo porque lo maten de forma rastrera y miserable sino porque, salvando el flashback del museo, siempre que aparece es para ser despreciado por Ellie de una forma o de otra. Todo porque Ellie considera que no la tuvo en cuenta en su decisión al final del primero. Bien, y si lo que hizo te parece mal, qué crees que debería haber hecho entonces¿? Esta pregunta no se responde porque es imposible hacerlo sin caer en el ridículo. Todo porque nos intentan vender que lo que hizo Joel al final del primer juego estuvo mal.
    - Las muertes de Jesse y Manny. Ambos personajes parecían medianamente importantes pero se los quitan de encima de repente. No solo nadie llora su muerte sino que no se les vuelve siquiera a mencionar en el resto del juego.
    - Relleno. El juego dura más de lo que debería, y eso se nota especialmente en la parte de Abby, donde las misiones están estiradas a más no poder solo para que su parte dure tanto como la de Ellie. Pero donde más se nota el relleno es en la recta final, cuando volvemos a controlar a Ellie. Como no podíamos encontrarnos con Abby y ya está, el juego se saca una nueva facción de la manga que nadie conoce y que a nadie le importa en la que todos son malos malísimos porque sí y nos ponen a masacrarlos para arañar unas horas más de juego.
    - El cambio de parecer sin sentido de Tommy. Cuando están todos juntos en el teatro, Tommy habla con Ellie y le dice algo así como que Abby sigue viva pero que ya han tenido suficiente y que es mejor volver a casa. Tiempo después Tommy aparece en casa de Ellie para decirle que ha localizado a Abby y que tiene que terminar el trabajo porque se lo prometió. Un cambio de opinión que no viene a cuento pero que necesitaban para avanzar la trama.
    - Ellie y Dina en el mundo de yupi. Ambas se retiran a vivir en una especie de granja en mitad del monte aisladas de todo. En un mundo post apocalíptico en el que en cualquier momento te puede llegar una horda de infectados y destrozarte la vida no tiene mucho sentido. Es cierto que aquí los infectados han pasado a un tercer plano, pero esto ya es pasarse.
    - La historia de Abby. Lleva tiempo con los lobos y además todos parecen conocerla (muchos le saludan cuando entra en las instalaciones), pero conoce a un par de niños de la facción contraria y dos días después (literalmente) no tiene problemas en traicionarlos y matarlos. Niños a los que no se ha hecho mención anteriormente, que no conozco y que no me importan. Para rematar, Isaac que parecía un personaje importante (cualquiera que se fuera leyendo las notas durante la parte de Ellie estará de acuerdo) es asesinado de repente y una vez más no se le vuelve a mencionar. Lo dicho, historia flojísima y además con relleno.
    - El personaje de Abby en general. Y no, el problema no es que esté mazada o que parezca un tío, sino como se presenta el personaje. Tras matar a Joel de forma miserable habiéndole salvado la vida, no solo nos obligan a controlarla durante casi la mitad del juego (algo que me causó una enorme repulsión) sino que encima el juego pretende que te caiga bien. Lo siento pero no. Después de matar a Joel de la forma en la que lo hizo no puede caerme bien este personaje, independientemente de sus motivaciones o de su historia.
    - El final. Tras masacrar a cientos de personas Ellie decide perdonarla. No era difícil de predecir, pues el mensaje del juego estaba claro desde el principio. Luego tenemos otro flashback en el que Joel vuelve a ser despreciado por Ellie y una escena final que nos muestra que Ellie lo ha perdido todo por la venganza (que finalmente no ha llevado a cabo). Después de que el director dijera que había llorado con el final me esperaba algo bastante mejor. No veo donde está la parte lacrimógena, sinceramente.

    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]
