    I finally played the game after some time has passed since the backlash. And I.. I just... Jesus Christ. I can't believe how good this is. This game... I've never felt so sad, so emotionally drained by a game, or almost any piece of media. I don't know what to say. Just that you should experience this in your own way. Try to stay away from any preconceptions and go through this.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Отзыв решил написать не сразу. Прошел игру несколько месяцев назад. Сперва играть не хотел из за отзывов других пользователей сети, но все же не жалею сейчас о времени которое провел в TLOU2. Как уже ранее писали, моя жизнь не будет прежней теперь. Это пожалуй единственная игра на сегодняшний день которая вызвала у меня такие эмоции. Я словно потерял человека которого знал всю жизнь! Хотел бы я что то в ней изменить? Пожалуй только уход одного из ГГ! Но дерьмо случается. В реальной жизни все было бы где то так же. Ни один герой вселенной TLOU не заслужил такой участи. Разве что отец Эбби, который готов был пойти на все ради вакцины. Но я уверен на 100% что у него бы все равно ничего не вышло! Я очень был рад тому что Элли не стала тварью и в конце задумалась, о том, что он не хотел бы видеть ее такой.
    Н. Дракман все же гений и у него получилось. Он логично закончил эту историю. Я не разочарован, скорее подавлен (, 8 пальцев из 10.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is just amazing , just finished it now and if not the best but it’s for sure one of the best games of the decade , every aspect of this game is good , the graphics , story , gameplay , sound system , movement, just everything is awesome and immersive, before i played it i heard a lotta people giving **** about the death of joel but when i put myself in abby’s shoes i understand why she decided to kill him , yes i love joel but for good or worse this is what the director chose for tlou2’s path and I’m totally fine with it , this game gives you every feeling in this world , happiness, sadness , fear it’s like a tv series or something, the way that your enemies give callouts to each other is a great detail , opening the safes were really cool (some of them were the same but i never got to say something like damn another safe lets skip this one) the weather man the vibes that it gives you is beautiful. The graphics.. I don’t even know how the 7 year old can run this game on 30fps with no problem it’s the best graphics I’ve seen on a console , the game is polished I haven’t seen any glitches or bugs. This game just kept me to itself and i played nothing other than lou2 in the past 3 days.
    the only con that i can find is the fights , most of the times the fights can be the same and it’s a little bad but if you’re creative enough you can find different ways to defeat the enemies and not just playing stealthy , so yeah I highly recommend you to play this and the last of us part 1 game    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This Game is a masterpiece in both visual and storytelling. It give you the meaning of life itself, As the first game, it was a brutal journey and phenomenal story about hate, love and forgiveness, and everything that is good and bad in this broken world. For what i believe if you want to make a good story as the last of us don't give the fans something they want give theme something that will change their point of view over the story and what they really deserve. Of course Joel Miller was one of the greatest character ever made in any media, and he is my favorite character of all time but sadely he didn't make it. His death was so bad and cruel and that's what make this story so special it gives the character what they realy deserve but in the end of course it didn't succed to the same level as the first one. In the end try to understand the story and don't listen to the others who didn't play the game. BE OPEN MINDED.… Expand

    in my opinion this game is great but not perfect. its gameplay is just incredible, it has a lot of action or stealth if that is what you like. its graphics is something that you cannot see at all its glory in a YouTube video. the music is good but not remarkable, there are no memorable tracks but the ones they have get the job done. now the controversy the narrative,    No spoiler review

All the tension thay managed to make got completely lost. like you can do it later but it is not going to be the same. And it would be ok if the flashback would be short but it takes like other 7-15 hours and then the scene goes back and maybe you forgot about it already. now other controversy, the ending, the ending got me like furious due to the game story and then the ending is well. how can i say it it feels empty like something is missing. like quick flashbacks ( people that played the game know what I mean ) and you maybe can understand the decision.

    Secondary stuff
    the characters well they are like empty. they are not as good as the first game but get the job done.

    The weapons. the weapons are good ( I am not going to mention them due to maybe someone taking it as an spoiler ) every gun is usable and fun to use and have different strong-points and its weak-points so if you want to be more efficient you may need to exchange once in a while but every weapon gets the main job done, to kill enemies.

    My conclusion is that the game is worth at least giving it a shot. or even only for the gameplay. the characters are decent and get the job done, the weapons are fun to use and good in most situations.
    even though the narrative is not perfect and is disorganized it is still playable    … Expand

Technically, this game is great, crisp clean graphics and awesome performances all around but this is all downplayed in a game where most of the time the colors are shades of green, brown and grey.

The performances can't save the uninteresting plot with an overused message, i've seen it done before and done better elsewhere, including in the first game where the message about "two sides to a story" was under the message of hope and healing. I hate how much this game throws it's message in our faces in an effort to make us feel bad, I don't even care about all the hate this game is getting cause I'm pretty sure the developers expected this to happen when they decided to take the story in this direction. They wanted to fill us with hate and still have us understand that our hatred at the game was part of the message, well, mission accomplished. I hate the game, I understand what the message was and I don't like it. I get what they were going for, god knows humanity still has a lot to learn about empathy and forgiveness, but i think the execution of their idea was really bad, so much so the message wasn't able to reach a lot of people. Humans, gamers specially, are short sighted and entitled by default but more than that, I think the developers are more at fault for not executing their idea properly and still expect us to like their product.… Expand

    The game is a masterpiece, the gameplay, graphics and plot are 10 out of 10. In the end, even a stingy tear breaks through )
    The mechanics of the game are built so that gives great pleasure from killing enemies, both zombies and people. The game is quite long, but during this time it does not get boring, there is always some twist or TURN! It will be one of my five favorite games of all time.

    REVIEW EM PORTUGUÊS:

    Uma das maiores decepções no mundo dos jogos.

    O começo é totalmente sem sentido e tedioso, tendo em mãos que você anda mais que joga, a introdução da história é totalmente desconexa com o primeiro jogo, quando se trata da morte do Joel, já que no primeiro jogo ele é um paranoico que não confia em ninguém e no segundo ele já entrega o nome dele para uma desconhecida, e acaba morto por isso.
    A parte em que a Ellie e a Dina juntam para fumar maconha na hora da patrulha (isso mesmo, chaparam na hora da patrulha) é outra parte que não faz o menor sentido, visto que elas tinham uma tarefa no momento.

    A gameplay do jogo é muito "cinemática", quando você faz um ataque corpo a corpo contra um inimigo, você pode estar a metros dele, mesmo assim tem uma força gravitacional que te puxa para o inimigo para que você continue o ataque.
    O jogo é de exploração, mas parece que ele não quer que você explore, toda vez que você "demora" muito para explorar certa área, e o jogo coloca um botão de dica na tela, fazendo o jogador de trouxa.
    Também tem um uso excessivo de quick time events, por exemplo: tem certas partes em que você precisa abrir uma porta, mas está emperrada, então você precisa apertar quadrado duas vezes para abri-la, e isso o jogo INTEIRO.

    A história não é das melhores mas também não é tão ruim, só acho que eles deram um foco muito grande na relação da Dina com a Ellie que pareceu algo forçado para chamar atenção de um certo público. A Dina é uma personagem com um carisma forçado, e muito chata, não para de falar por um minuto sequer.
    Quando você chega em certo ponto do jogo, você joga quase que toda a campanha novamente só que com a Abby, a antagonista, o jogo tenta fazer o jogador entender o ponto de vista da Abby mas só mostra que ela é uma brutamonte psicopata que não tem remorso nem de matar o próprio povo.
    Quando você termina de jogar a parte da Abby, o jogo já está quase no final, mas você não tem aquele sentimento de que está acabando, e quando sobem os créditos você fica com uma impressão de "é só isso?".

    Meus únicos pontos positivos sobre o jogo são o gore, que é sensacional e visceral, a direção de arte, que é uma das melhores que eu já vi em um jogo, aquela parte da fazenda é linda, e por fim, os gráficos que são muito bons, e não confundam o ingame com as CGs, já que o jogo transita muito bem quando precisa.

    Em conclusão, não é um bom jogo, você consegue se divertir em algumas partes mas a maior parte do jogo é extremamente chata e tediosa.

    ENGLISH REVIEW:

    One of my biggest disappointments about gaming.

    The begging is extremely boring, too much walking and awful dialogues and nonsense events (like Joel's death and Ellie smoking weed while she had important things to do at that moment, like wtf she was thinking??).

    The gameplay is too "fake", when you attack a enemy it seems that there is this gravitational force that pulls you to the enemy so you can kill him. The game is about exploring but it seems that it doesn't want you to explore it, because every time you take too long exploring, the game gives you a tip button, and this is so ridiculous, making the player an idiot.
    There is also this overuse of quick time events, for example: there are many times in the game where you are opening a door but the door is stuck, so you need to press the square button two times, and it happens through the whole game, it's so annoying.

    The story isn't that bad but is not also good, Dina is one of the most annoying and terrible character I've ever seen in a videogame, she doesn't stops talking for a single minute during the walkthroug, and the game is always focusing in Ellie and Dina's relationship when it isn't something that important to the story, it gave me the impression of trying to call certain people attention.

    When you get in certain point of the game, you have to play it all again but with Abby, that is the game's antagonist. They try to make you understand Abby's point of view but they just show you that Abby is just a freak psychopath that doesn't even cares about killing her own people.
    When you finish to play the whole Abby's part, the game is near to the end, but the game doesn't even cares about showing the player that you are almost in the end, you don't have that feeling of finishing a game.

    My only positive points to this work is the gore, that is just amazing, the graphics that are great and the art direction that is one of the best i have ever seen in gaming industry.

    In conclusion, is not a good game, there are some fun parts, but the biggest part of the game is extremely boring.

    The chemistry between the characters is zero, the plot itself is weak. If the first part went out due to the excellent chemistry between the characters and the well-written plot, then this is not at all here!

Regardless, It has such a creative, innovative, and distinct approach to storytelling, and the gameplay takes huge strides to give the player a realistic and deeply disturbing experience that ties into the messages.
    The story is masterful in how it guides the player through the emotions of the characters, only to make you step back and observe the consequences of your actions. The story definitely isn't for everyone, but it's memorable and masterfully stacked up to a conclusion that leaves you thinking for days. As someone who's played it four times since launch, I can confidently say that the more you understand each character and the more time you spend exploring their motives the more you will enjoy it.
    When it comes to gameplay, the leap from the first game in animation, 3d sound, enemy dialogue, and atmosphere make it the most harrowing, realistic experience I've ever seen. This is a game best experienced while completely immersed. Enemies will have unique names, and they'll communicate with each other based on the situation. The more immersed you are, the more satisfying the gameplay will be. In addition, the game is capable of making you feel many different kinds of fear, although it's definitely not a horror game. The brutality of the gameplay combined with the story take the player on a distinct emotional journey.
    The score is very subtle, but it's also phenomenal not just in terms of composition but also motifs, which reinforce the story and the thoughts of the characters. Props to Gustavo Santaolalla for the emotional story-driven music, and to Mac Quayle for providing the oppressive combat and stealth music that contribute so much to the atmosphere.
    Visually, this game is on par with Uncharted 4, God of War, Red Dead Redemption 2. It's amazing how well Naughty Dog optimizes the experience, and the visuals are striking and beautiful. The game has been free of bugs for me as well.
    The acting is top notch, with incredible performances from Troy Baker, Ashley Johnson, and Laura Bailey, along with the vast supporting cast of characters.
    In summary, this is an emotional journey that explores revenge from many perspectives. It goads the player on, only to make them regret their actions later. The story is controversial, but I thought it was incredibly well thought out and executed. The gameplay is tense, realistic, violent, and purposeful. With great music, graphics, performances, and more, this is a truly unforgettable experience.    … Expand

    A very emotional game.

    I completed The Last of Us 1 like 5 or 6 years ago. I didn't read any news, leaks, or comments about the sequel going in. So my perspective is completely untainted. At first, I was very shocked and upset about what the devs decided to do to Joel. I didn't have a problem with him dying. He did kill a bunch of innocent people in the first game, so I wasn't    A very emotional game.

    At first, I was very shocked and upset about what the devs decided to do to Joel. I didn't have a problem with him dying. He did kill a bunch of innocent people in the first game, so I wasn't surprised karma would bite him eventually. I have a problem with him dying so soon. It's an enormous waste of a character, that was built up so meticulously from the first game. To me, he was the main character. The back bone to the story. I felt they could have done so much more with Joel, before killing him off. Maybe he gets captured, or something like that. Anything to build on his character more, and it could have increased Ellie's desperation and urgency. I felt it was a missed opportunity, story-wise.

    After his death, I had a lot of doubts for what they could possibly do to keep me interested. Just like how I can't watch Simpsons without Homer, or Family Guy without Peter. Last of Us without Joel? How? As I progressed, the flashbacks Ellie had of Joel felt absolutely endearing. Bittersweet. A large part of that feeling stems from knowing Joel's gone. It was sad, but in a good way. Kind of like Game of Thrones, minus the ending. People died. It was a tragedy, but it made me love it more. Ellie's flashbacks heightened my need to pursue the killers, and find out why they did it. When I finally got to Abby, I honestly felt a bit sorry for her, after what Ellie did to her friends. At this point, she honestly had nothing. Killing her would have felt empty. I was ready for some answers. Then the game throws me in the shoes of Abby. Instead of a dramatic cutscene, the game put me directly in her shoes so I could see her side. And after seeing it, I completely understand where she's coming from. She went to kill Joel, to avenge her father. A logical reason. Not ethical. But reasonable. I didn't hate Abby anymore. Suddenly, I didn't know whose side I was on. And in the final chapter of the story. The showdown. I was shocked to see the condition Abby was in. I was extremely curious to see how this would affect Ellie's actions. The way it played out was perfect. Heartbreaking. So much emotion evoked in that fight. A fitting climax to the amount of **** that has transpired. By the end, I didn't like Ellie or Abby. They both were flawed. But yet, so human.

    And now on to the more technical review...

    Good

    - hand-to-hand combat is good. The enemies attack animation slows down so that I could react with an input in time. This added a reflex test. Unlike a lot of other games where the hand-to-hand combat window was so small that it was usually not possible to react to, and I have to just pre-emptive block, or attack.

    - clickers are so well designed. They make the stealth gameplay so much more tense because you have to walk extra slow behind them, but at the same time you have to make an action quickly when you are within their close proximity or else they will notice you even if you stay still. So it kind of forces you to plan ahead a bit, and when I decide to strike I must go through with it. And if things turn south I have to quickly adapt, either with a stun object, shoot, or run away. In areas with regular infected and clickers, it really adds diversity to the stealth. Infected could see but clickers couldn't, which forced me to use cover cleverly, and choose my targets wisely based on enemy position.

    - the stun and strike combo feel satisfying to land especially when I got it in a tight situation.

    - the distraction to molotov combo is a great alternative to the stealth strats. Since I had to try and gather the infected into a close proximity before I can pull off the group kill. But when I do manage to bait them all together, then Molotov them all, it's a satisfying feeling.

    - the narrative, and voice acting is impeccable. The beginning where Abby and the dude found a city, the story didn't tell me who they were looking for or who Mel was, and what was the history behind these two. It's a mystery that drew me into the story, making me want to find out what what's going on.

    - the balance between defense an offense is perfect. Clickers are one hit KO, and the infected do a decent chunk of damage. So the game does encourage stealth. But if things go south the game also gives ample offensive abilities for me to survive.

    - checkpoints are really well placed. It doesn't bring me back all the way to the beginning but rather the last major encounter which is perfect, because it doesn't forced me to backtrack unnecessary gameplay.

    - I like how for most objects that interact with, my partner automatically chimes in.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us II is a game that I wanted to enjoy, but was not able to because I feel it is just a game that tries too hard and doesn't deliver what the fans wanted. My score is an overall 6/10, average at best, because I cannot deny it is without a doubt the most graphically incredible game for its generation of gaming. But the story is what holds it back from getting a higher score.

    The story falls short for me because of various reasons. The most glaring ones being that the game just re-hashes the same revenge plot three times over. It starts off with Abby and co going after Joel for revenge, which she gets. Then Ellie goes after Abby, which doesn't work out, but then after trying to essentially give up on it, she has a break down and goes after Abby again for revenge. Only, she never gets it. The game ends with what can only be seen as Ellie, I assume, forgiving Abbie, or reaching some kind of revelation that her revenge would mean nothing, so she just doesn't take it. Which is redundant as it makes the whole game utterly pointless and worthless in terms of the players effort.

    Other issues are the way you're forced to play as Abby, a character who, from what I can tell, a good chunk of the player base just did not like to play as. When you're forced to play as a character you don't enjoy or like, it kills your drive to want to see the game through, and this happened with me, but I pushed on because I had paid for the game and figured I may as well get my money's worth from it as well as what trophies I could.

    The worst part for me was where you were forced to play as Abby and fight against Ellie. This was not good for me because Ellie was really the only character I wound up liking throughout the game. At least a little. Even characters from the past game who return in Part II that I liked before, I didn't like in this game. Plus there's just wasted other characters. Ones who you spend so little time getting to know because they wind up dying, it makes their appearance utterly pointless, which is a shame for the effort that's gone into this game.

    The example I can give is when you're playing as Abby, and she returns to a home base, one of her friends unzips a body bag and she's horrified at who it is inside. But we don't hear the name being spoken. I can only assume, we, as the player, are already supposed to know, but I couldn't remember the name. I recognised the character as one I had seen before, but if there was a name, I just couldn't remember it, showing they had an insignificant impact for who they're meant to be.

    This continued on for me in the fact that all other characters I just couldn't bring myself to like or care about. And the game soon showed a clear problem with trying to push these shock factors into your face way too many times. By the time the game got to the point where the pregnant lady is accidentally killed by Ellie, I just stopped caring for the game altogether. Over all, by the time I got to the end, I felt the game ended on a stupidly empty and unnecessarily mysterious note, as well as it just dragged on for a bit too long for how little worth while story there really was. And then there was the whole big thing with a transgender character being in the game. I am all for the support and inclusion of them in anything, from video games and movies, but in The Last of Us Part II, it didn't make sense. The character of Lev is shown to be intelligent, but what I fail to understand is why, in a world where there's a fungus turning people into flesh eating infections mutants as well as murderous bandits and cannibals in the word along with crazy cults that Lev is a part of, why would they worry about being what gender they feel they are over surviving? It just didn't make any sense for me. It was a very well done character, but felt very out of place for the world of the game.

    As I said, the visuals are incredible, but the gameplay is just a spit shined version of the first game. Everything is similar, just nicer with a few new additions, like being able to go prone, shooting from being prone and the ability to dodge, counter attack, attack on the move and of course, jump, climb ropes and swing on them. That's pretty much it for the gameplay. The games A.I however is rather phenomenal and impressive. The fight sections were easily the best parts for me.

    I remember seeing SkillUp's pre-release review on YouTube and thinking it couldn't be as bad as he said it was, but honestly, it really was.

    For a game many waited around eight years for, what we expected was not even anywhere close to what was delivered. My trust in Neil Druckman has fallen significantly, and any excitement for future Naughty Dog games is now gone.

    It's worth one play through for the combat, visuals and trophies, but after that, it's not worth a lot at all. I feel it wasn't even worth the £40 I paid for it.

    A nice game, but falls short where it counts. The story. Again, 6/10. Average.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I heard about the controversy in summer last year. I finished the story today and now I know why.

    My problem besides the story is the lack of end bosses and the variety of different zombies. It feels always the same. Over and over you do the same for 12 to 14 hours.
    1. Kill People/Zombies quietly or loudly
    2. Search for items
    3. Cutscene
    4. Start from 1

    The Problem of the Story though. Man. They really don't want to do a Part III. They really don't.

    Besides of killing Joel, the lack of emotions between Ellie and Joel is ridiculous.
    They went to thick and thin in Part I and I understand the emotions Ellie had, but common man.
    It like your father. And Joel looked Ellie like her daughter. BUT THEY NEVER REALLY TALKED ABOUT THAT STUFF. That's annoying to me. The lack of emotions that they deserved. Went to all that **** in Part I. At the end of Part I Joel would react the same, because even there would be a cure Ellie would die. He would lose his 2nd daughter. They didn't get the chance of developing what they deserved.

    Even when the **** story ended like this. Why Ellie didn't expressed her feelings or emotions with some words. They cut the scenes. But 14 hours of doing the same is alright.

    It's reminds me of the maker of Sherlock Holmes who killed Sherlock in his book, because he got annoyed by him. Just later to revive him because the **** hit the fan. Feels the same with the last of us.

    When Part III is happening I won't play it. Everything what made The Last of Us amazing is raped. I hoped somebody else would have made the story.    … Expand

Everything made on the wrong timing, and forcing the player to care about characters that we want to kill. Everybody is bad in TLOF world, and that does not mean we have to care if it has other "good people" to care about, except for Ellie and Joe. Naughty Dog said for 7 years that TLOF Part 2 would be another adventure with Ellie and Joe, so we can say that they lied. They forget that videogame is not a movie. It is nice when games have a movie style, but it still not a movie. 60 dollars for Ellie and Joe, and you get Abby, and a bunch of people that I do not even remember their names, because I do not care about then.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Игра на самом деле прекрасна, но вот сюжет... Я не смог понять концовку, в ней слишком видно влияние женщины-сценаристки. Над сценой смерти Джоэла заплакала бы и макака, они просто убили главного персонажа первой части. Эта игра нацелена на женщин?! Нас хотят растрогать тем, что Элии убила беременную женщину, которая бросилась на неё с ножом! Да, после того как нам рассказали историю Эбби и её друзей, этот момент приобретает краски, но чтобы мы эти краски увидели, нам нужно было пройти огромный пролог. Видно что разрабы черпали вдохновение из Убить Билла, но вместо сильных женских персонажей, тут же паразитирование на первой части, финальная сцена это вообще бой двух баб в грязевой ванне. Рассказ истории флэшбэками уже не новый, и довольно грязный приём. О трансах в постапокалипсисе вообще молчу. Было очень опрометчиво брать Хелли Гросс как второго сценариста, а может Нил прогнулся под меньшинствами.

    Забыл упомянуть про часть, где Элли и Дина живут в доме, от этой части у меня ж*па порвалась на британский флаг. После всего того что она пережила в первой части, во второй, после смерти Джоэла, после того как Эбби её чуть не убила, они нашли **анный загородный дом без зомби, ПОЛНОСТЬЮ ЦЕЛЫЙ ЗАГОРОДНЫЙ ДОМ, И ЖИВУТ ТАМ СЕБЕ ПРИПЕВАЮЧИ! Это просто мечта любой 14-летней лесбиянки, но это не влажная мечта лесбухи, "ЭТО ИГРА ПРО ЖЕСТОКОСТЬ". Когда началась часть с Джоэлом я надеялся что это всё её сон, и на самом деле она лежит в больнице в городе Томми, или типа того. Но нет! Это всё происходит на самом деле. Это просто п*здец, простите за мат, но у меня нет других слов. На этот понос предлагают смотреть мужикам, которые час назад крошили черепа и вспарывали горла, со стороны Элли такая-же претензия. В итоге это не та Элли из первой части! Это смазливая девчушка, которая просто хочет жить со своей девушкой в огромном доме, без намёка на каких-то там зомби и всё такое. Очень хочется надеяться что это дело рук второго сценариста, а не Нила Дракмана, ведь если это Нил, ему пора купить такой же дом, и жить там со своим мужем.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Visually excellent, but terrible at the core. There is so much drama in the game that it just gets ridiculous. Each character was touched by the drama. Drama-beginning, drama-pregnant-women (2), drama-kid, drama-flashbacks, drama-love-triangle, drama-ending, even drama-dogs and drama-zebras ... yes, the first part also had drama, but there was at least some balance. Drama-Druckmann completely lost shores in this. Come on, man, the world isn't so bad, even with zombies.… Expand

    One of the best Games I have ever played. I can understand, that a lot of players are disappointed by how the Story of Ellie and Joel has turned, but if we look at facts we can say:
    1. It looks beautiful. Sometimes you just stand around and enjoy the beautiful view the game offers to the players.
    2.The Story is very captivating, even if you dont like the plot 3. The game offers A LOT    One of the best Games I have ever played. I can understand, that a lot of players are disappointed by how the Story of Ellie and Joel has turned, but if we look at facts we can say:

    2.The Story is very captivating, even if you dont like the plot
    3. The game offers A LOT of content to discover beside the main quest.
    4. The ingame music is gorgeous and gives you real goose bumps.

    I can understand the complaining community when they say something like: "What has Naghty Dog done to Joel. Ellie became a Monster. We hate Abby."
    But I think, that the whole Storyline about Abby und her loved ones is very exciting because it forces the player the see a new Way of thinking and makes us realise, that Ellie and Joel are NOT the heros of the story, they are just some random people like every other in this world who are trying to survive. Therefor we cannot say that Ellie nor Abby is a monster, cause all they are trying to do ist to survive in this horrible, yet so beautiful world.

    If you want to experience one of the most tragic but also one of the beautiful storys in the gaming universe, this game is a must play.    … Expand

    For me the best video game of all times. The game with all its facettes is simply amazing. But what really makes a difference, is the emotional experience it creates. Very boldly it teaches a hard and surprising lesson about hatred, revenge and ultimately about the need to forgive - even your worst enemy.

    It is not the game people wanted, but it isn't a bad game as well. TLOU2 subverts expectations but in detriment of what made it great in the past, it's characters, it's pacing, themes and hero's journey story.

    Most moving and gripping story I've experienced in a game. It's not perfect, but it's better than any story in any other game I've played. If the people rating this game 0/10 for its story were that nitpicky about every other game, they'd give everything a 0.

    Eu amo The Last Of Us, simplesmente não pensei que fosse amar tanto um jogo. Acho idiota quando as pessoas dizem que não gostaram por isso ou aquilo, esse é simplesmente o melhor jogo que eu já vi, ninguém pode mudar a minha opinião. É incrível!

    Como uma pessoa LGBT posso dizer que estou apaixonada como as coisas foram levadas. Essa é a melhor história e com os melhores gráficos.

    I’ve been playing video games since the Atari 2600 and in all of my years, I have never experienced anything quite like The Last of Us: Part II. That right there should be enough to tell you how remarkable and unforgettable the game is. Easily one of my favorite video games of all time. No debate necessary. I stand by that statement without a single doubt. Play it now.

    This game is a slap to the face of the fans of the first game. Gameplay is enjoyable. But not much improved from the first game. Some new combat mechanics are there but not any innovation like they claim. Other games have been doing the same thing. Graphics are extremely good. But the horrendous story, writing and pacing issues make this game below average for me

    This game is Neil Druckmann's hypocrisy at its finest. He makes a point to dunk on other directors' games like characters in MGS V, then invites a hornet's nest of the slanderous dialogue he cultivated himself.

Animators and other developers gave their health and sanity crunching for his vision and story; they were the true victims in TLOU2's deliverance, not the martyr complex the director wears with a bleeding heart, all while Sony allows sex, rape and violence in his games while they censor other Japanese games that are designed for adults.… 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]
