    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This was one of the most immersive games I have ever played. So much attention to detail was given to this game and it pays off. Maybe my favorite third person shooter of all time.

    Many of the negative reviews stem from people being unhappy about Joel’s death. I don’t really understand that as there wasn’t any other place for his story to go. Also, his death is the catalyst for the whole story. In regards to Joel’s death, I feel like most people don’t really understand that he has to deal with the consequences of what he did and that he never was a good guy per say. I almost feel like some of the people who don’t understand that are the same people who think Walter white is the good guy in breaking bad    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Одна из лучших игр этого поколения консолей. Конечно, как и в любом проекте, в ней есть минусы, как например: спорный баланс сложности (На максимальном уровне все работает прекрасно, но слегка маловато лута, а на всех остальных Элли/Эбби становятся просто терминаторами, а припасов так много, что очень часто их просто некуда складывать)

    В остальном игра прекрасна, она обладает невероятной графикой и бывает сложно поверить, что она работает на PS4, Дизайн уровней просто умопомрачителен, была проделана колоссальная работа, а практически все локации имеют огромные пространства для исследования и несколько путей достижения цели. Так же враги умные, а битвы напряженные и захватывающие. Крафт не напрягающий и не надоедающий, как по мне, и, в целом, улучшился со времён первой части, как и прокачка оружия и персонажей. Такой атмосферы как в этой игре я нигде и никогда больше не видел, от спокойной и радостной прогулки Элли с Джоэлом в ее день рождения, до путешествия по телебашне (или телестанции), в которой только недавно жестоко убили кучу народу.

    Сюжет же держит в напряжении постепенно раскрывая причины произошедшего в начале игры и предлагает еще раз поразмыслить на вечную тему правильных и неправильных поступков и расплаты за них. Что же на счет финала, лично я немного разочарован, но не потому что он плохой, а потому что он, на мой взгляд, слишком реалистичен. Это хороший финал, но уж точно не для такой сильной истории как серия Last of us.

    В заключении могу сказать, что если бы мне еще когда-нибудь предоставилась бы возможность вернутся в эту увлекательную вселенную, я бы принял приглашение не раздумывая    … Expand

    The Last of Us Part 2 is a polar opposite. It’s a    A true masterpiece the lives up to and expands upon the massive success of its predecessor. The first game was a witty, heartfelt, and gruesome story that gives you hope and leaves you satisfied with a near perfect ending. Though, we quickly realize in The Last of Us Part 2 that actions from the first game indeed have consequences....

    The Last of Us Part 2 is a polar opposite. It’s a story of hate, revenge, loss, and devastation. There’s a partial departure from the first games protagonist/character arc and we find ourselves with a hard to stomach tale of revenge that beats you down and makes you explore the consequences of your actions. The game is constantly questioning your humanity as you desperately try to justify the escalating situations of brutality. I beat the game emotionally distraught and in deep reflection for all of the stories facets to unfold. I can confidently say that no other video game in my entire left has left me so broken, stunned, and impressed. I don’t want to ruin the game for you, as you undoubtedly MUST experience this masterpiece for yourself, but this a game that will haunt you in the most epic of ways. If you’re hoping for a happy ending, you’d be sadly mistaking.

    Besides the story, this game has some of the most cutting edge graphics and accessibility functions to date and you can even play the game a second time fully customizing your difficulty level. Naughty Dog has pushed the limits of what a game can offer on the PS4 and this achievement should be praised and applauded. This game will stay with you for a long time after you play it and will leave you coming back for more. I’d highly recommend you to play it if you’re looking for something that challenges your mentally and emotionally, and aren’t afraid to experience a story that takes high stake risks. They certainly pay off.    … Expand

    I've now completed The Last of Us Part II twice and I am really impressed with the game. I also replayed the first game recently to make sure any comparisons I make are meaningful.

Without spoiling the game, Ellie's journey is full of difficult choices and weighty character    I've now completed The Last of Us Part II twice and I am really impressed with the game. I also replayed the first game recently to make sure any comparisons I make are meaningful.

    Story:
    Continuing from the end of the first game, Last of Us Part II focuses on Ellie as the key protagonist. Without spoiling the game, Ellie's journey is full of difficult choices and weighty character moments and I found myself gripped. There are additional characters introduced in this game. Standout is Abby, a new character who parallels with Joel's journey from the first game. There are sections where you play as Abby and I found her gameplay to be a refreshing change from sections playing as Ellie.
    Overall the focus of the story is a revenge mission made of two parts. Again I won't go into too much but the ending is satisfying and sets up for Part III whilst also being a definitive end to this part. I found the story to be more realistic than the first game. Characters question their actions more here, and murdering hordes of people is no longer just a 'by product' of a journey, but part of a clear story narrative. The writers have also been brave with the story choices. I was particularly impressed with the representation in this game. There are numerous characters introduced from BAME backgrounds and there are characters tackling issues linked to sex and gender identity. This doesn't feel shoe-horned, but rather a natural reflection of the world we live in, not the make belief all white world you see in most games.
    Focusing on multiple story lines, does at points make deviate a little from the overall narrative, but not so much that it hinders the story.

    Gameplay:
    The new elements added to Part II are great. Part stealth, part frantic action, most fighting sections left me running around looking for resources to stay alive. With the introduction of new enemy types, the game stays fresh whilst refining what was good in the first. I'm particularly impressed with the enemy AI which is more reactive than ever. Especially the dogs, which as a dog lover, I must say I hated them by the end of the game.
    Weapon mechanics are similar to the first game but better. On one end you can craft silencers for your pistol, on the other you can craft explosive arrows. I did two runs and in the first I was largely stealthy and made use of the ability to craft arrows and silencers. On the other I went in loud, making use of explosive ammo and bombs. Either way there are plenty of tools for the job.
    This game also ups the horror elements. Now the infected are scarier than ever and there are a few scenes which particularly shook me up. New infected types are introduced and they are a great additional challenge to the game.

    Sound:
    The music is as excellent as ever with the score from Gustavo Santaolalla bringing a great ambience to the game. I played the game with noise cancelling headphones and found the soundtrack immersive and powerful. There are moments where the soundtrack really builds as the character is grappling with tough emotional decisions, and of course, when you are running for your life.
    The sound effects are also better this time. Guns sound punchy and the infected sound scarier than ever.

    Overall:
    If you loved the first game, you will also love this game. The characters have grown in weight and complexity and the gameplay is fine tuned to perfection. It is the only game this console gen I have immediately replayed and I look forward to doing so again.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Что за нытье? Все кто плачет над сюжетом, Вы хотели какого развития сценария? Что при помощи Элли сделают вакцину, и все вылечатся? Тогда игра завершена. Что вакцина не помогла, или не удалось сделать? Так и продолжения игры никакого и не было бы. Остается одно, Джоэл спас свою "дочь" от смерти, и естественно из-за этого началась на него охота, и последующая месть. Изначально я думал что его убили, потому что он помешал сделать вакцину, а в итоге узнается что там на первом плане были личные счеты. Так что к сюжету я никаких претензий не имею. Опять же повторюсь, вариантов развития не особо. То, что Элли стала лесбиянкой-пацанкой(черствой, жестокой)... Пацанка - живя в таком мире с самого детства, убивая, видя жесткого окружения... сложно вырасти другим человеком. Насчет лесбиянки ничего говорить не буду, я не сильно расстроился. Насчет Эбби, то что ее сделали накаченным мужичком прям, тоже объяснимо, для меня. Так же, в слишком юном возрасте она видит убийство отца, и осознание того, кто его убил, и то что вакцину от вируса никто более не сможет сделать - у девочки на уме одно, месть. И внешний вид оправдан тем, что она оттачивает борьбу, силу, убийства, физику и мощь.
    Так что лично для меня сюжет хороший. Да, есть моменты непонятные, но в целом все хорошо. Насчет боев, физики и графики все понятно. Поэтому 10/10    … Expand

Я хочу пожать руку по 4 раза каждому, кто работал над игрой. Naughty dog берут эмоциями. В last of us 2 умирают очень многие полюбившиеся нам или просто те, к которым нас "привязали" по ходу игры персонажи. Эта жестокость, убийства, ранения, насилие в общем, грустная музыка, у тебя слезы на глазах, от того через что прошла Элли и с чем и кем она осталась, Эбби и Элли мстят друг другу, они обе делают это за убийство своих близких, но приведет ли месть к справедливости и хорошему концу? - нет. Сколько потрачено сил обех героинь, сколько убито близких и друзей. Таких игр мало, что вызывают слезы и пустоту при завершении. Я очень не рад тем, кто ставит игре очень низкие оценки, поиграйте сами, влейтесь в эту атмосферу и я потом дайте ваш ответ. Я ни за что не поверю, что вам не понравится. Атмосфера, геймплей, музыка - все на высоте. Вы лучше Naughty dog, продолжайте радовать нас дальше.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. (CONTEM SPOILERS) O jogo é uma obra no mínimo diferente. Tudo o que foi criado no primeiro jogo, aquela história de amor, foi totalmente desconstruída, mas isso não é ruim, isso é bom, pois se encaixa na proposta do jogo, este é o propósito de TLOU2, impactar o jogador e dividi-lo, mostrar ambos os lados de uma guerra entre Ellie e seus opostos, mas não significa necessariamente que esses opostos são vilões ou heróis, afinal, não existem vilões e heróis, apenas sobreviventes e os opostos de Ellie não são necessariamente ruins, Ellie por muitas vezes mostra-se pior que seus inimigos. Essa não é uma história de vingança, mas sim de obsessão, por isso causa essa repulsa. O objetivo do jogo é mostrar o quão longe as pessoas vão por uma "vingança". Agora com spoilers, para contextualizar melhor. Bom, muitos reclamam da morte de Joel, no entanto, Ellie precisava de uma motivação para seus atos, afinal, precisava de um bom motivo para fazer tudo que fez. Sua raiva e sua culpa movem a narrativa, que não é complexa, basta compreender a proposta do jogo. Essa não é uma história convencional de vingança onde o "vilão" é malvado e o "herói" é o bonzinho, afinal, todo vilão é o herói da própria história. Além disso, analisando ambos os lados, Abby não está errada, afinal, Joel matou seu pai cruelmente. Logo, reflita, você não faria o mesmo ou sentiria a mesma vontade que ela caso estivesse em um mundo pós apocalíptico onde nada pode te impedir de tais atos? Acho que a resposta com certeza seria "sim", já que todos concordam com Ellie, não é mesmo?
    O final, esse que deixa uma reflexão a ser feita: qual o preço da vingança e da obsessão? Esse que é respondido pela perda de tudo. Ellie perde tudo, a família que construiu, seus amigos, sua residência, seus dedos, logo não consegue tocar mais violão (esse que a trazia boas memórias de Joel).
    Em síntese, o jogo usa da dualidade dos opostos, mostra ambos os lados de uma guerra, suas motivações, seus desejos e sua humanidade. Uma história consistente, segue um ritmo sólido e gradual. Os mapas são amplos e a exploração é magnífica, sempre recompensando o jogador por fazê-la. A jogabilidade é satisfatória, segue o mesmo padrão do primeiro título, porém com grandes melhorias, mecânicas novas, como o silenciador para a pistola, item que tornou-se essencial para a jogatina.
    Todos esses pontos fazem desse jogo quase perfeito, sendo um dos melhores jogos da geração e dificilmente será superado.    … Expand

The story wouldn’t be good. There’s so much emotion and brought me to tears several times. Ellie’s statements when killing and just little comments and her visible discomfort and ptsd is shown so well and even with Abby who at first playing as made me annoyed, was made so well that I ended up feeling bad for her and her story. The ending showed Ellie as human, and Joel’s death, though very sad, brought the game together, with Ellie and Joel’s visible desperation emotionally and ending on bad terms, you could see Ellie break down and loose herself. And that’s what I love about it. It’s Ellie’s story. And her life, and gives another POV. Amazing game 10/10 would play again… Expand

    Naughty Dog delivers an unparalleled masterpiece as a final symphony on the PS4. The Last of Us Part 2 is unlike any other game in it's narrative approach and design philosophy and will go down as one of the best games of this generation. The performances by each character are mind-blowing, the action is brutal and the somber moments resonated with me even more!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game has such an EPIC story, The game deals with the repercussions of what happened at the end of the first game when Joel murdered the Firefly doctors, It even says in game that Abbys father is the only doctor still alive that could of made a cure/vaccine.
    Abby kills joel in revenge for him killing her father.......... You feel hate for abby at the start and once you learn her back story........ you feel nothing but empathy for her.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Everyone hating on this game needs to play it through again, and this time they have to pay more attention to the story, not just Joel's death. Yes, Joel's death was sudden and brutal, but that's just a reflection of the game. They didn't just kill him and then he wasn't in the game anymore, there were flashbacks and the whole plot revolves around him. He is very much present throughout the game. Playing as Abby was kind of like a punch to the gut, for the first part of the game we'd been told to want her dead. But then we see that, really, she's not that bad and not that different from Ellie. That's another astounding part of this game, the way that it shows us time and time again how brutal Ellie is, and how we should technically want her dead too. But we'll never want Ellie dead because... we just wouldn't, and it's something the game does so well, building up our support and love for the protagonists (for example Joel, a very flawed character who we loved) The graphics, well, they were undeniably amazing, the scene where Abby is climbing over Seattle is phenomenal and something I've never seen in a video game before. Seattle itself looks incredible, the Infected are almost too realistic at times, it's all done so well. This game was gut-wrenchingly brutal, it makes you do things you'll hate, not only in the killing sense, but even when someone says "Let's cut through this building," it fills you with dread. More than once I crawled through a dark, abandoned building in silence, breath held for when the clicker would jump out at me, but then nothing happens and I felt stupid for being so apprehensive. Overall, this game was well worth the wait, it hits you in all the right ways and doesn't always heal the wounds it leaves, something I loved about it.… Expand

    As someone who played Part I more than 100 times my expectations for The Last of Us Part II were really high. Especially after all these years of waiting. After playing through Part II for the third time, I'm happy to say that my expectations were even exceeded in a lot of ways. But of course there are some aspects that could have been improved

    PRO + Graphics: Keep in mind that this    As someone who played Part I more than 100 times my expectations for The Last of Us Part II were really high. Especially after all these years of waiting. After playing through Part II for the third time, I'm happy to say that my expectations were even exceeded in a lot of ways. But of course there are some aspects that could have been improved

    PRO
    + Graphics: Keep in mind that this game is running on really old hardware (even on the PRO). And it simply looks amazing. Kudos to Naughty Dog for this level of quality. I can not wait to see this game on PS5.
    + Animation: I have never played a game with such high-quality animations. This also has a huge impact in terms of gameplay
    + Gameplay: I already liked the Gameplay Naughty Dog delivered in Part I. Of course Naughty Dog does not reinvent the wheel in this category ("simply" stealth, shooting, dodging etc.). But the gameplay simply feels absolute right. And compared to Part I it is a really perfect evolution that stays true to the original game. And the animation does the rest. They way you feel the character is simply amazing. Hitting stuff, getting hit, dodging etc. is more than impressive.
    + Atmosphere: In Part I I always loved the atmosphere. You had moments where everything was quite and beautiful. 5 seconds later infected would swarm you and you had to fight for your life. And Part II even delivered in this category. Infected (especially Clickers) sound creepy as hell Same goes for the whistling of the Seraphites.
    + Audio: I would not call me an audiophile. But audio quality is always important to me. I am currently running a 7.2.6 setup. Unfortunately the game does not have support for stuff like Atmos or DTS:X. Which is why I am using Auro3D to upmix the 7.1 LPCM Signal. And the game simply sounds fantastic. Even without the Auromatic. This is another important factor why the atmosphere in this game is so good.
    + Story: A lot of people criticize the story for "ruining the characters" and "creating plot holes". I can not agree with that. It simply is not true, but I do not want to spoil the story for you. To understand the story of Part II you really need to understand what is happening in Part I. Then you have think about what is happening in Part II and why it is happening. This is really important. Otherwise you won't be able to understand the whole story. To quote David from Part I: "Everything happens for a reason". The game really had a lot of moments where the controller felt so heavy in my hands. One thing I have to add: Joel also followed Henry and Sam in Part I after they invited Joel and Ellie to follow them.
    + Accessibility: Luckily I do not need to use these features. But I know people who need them. And Naughty Dog did a really awesome job with these settings.
    + Soundtrack: Gustavo Santaolalla created another absolut fantastic soundtrack for this game. Especially these: Unbroken, Collateral, Beyond Desolation are fantastic. But: Part I had a few more memorable soundtracks.
    + AI Improvements: This was really important to me. The AI in Part I really was not that smart. With Part II Naughty Dog improved this a lot. This goes for your enemies as well as for your ally's.
    + Performance of the actors. I guess this is self-explanatory

    Not great, not terrible:
    o Seattle feels pretty monotonous from time to time. Not because everything looks the same. But in Part I you had more, completely different areas. Luckily we got a bit more variety during the last few hours.
    o Too much film grain. I understand why film grain is there. But I never like it. Usually games have a slider to turn film grain down or even off. Part II does not have such an option. The only way to get rid of the film grain is during photo mode. And Part II looks so much better without it.
    o You are not able to disable the listening mode. In part I it worked
    o No way to re-watch cut-scenes in the menu.

    Con:
    - You still can not crouch-sprint. I could swear I have seen this in Part II promo material. But maybe I am wrong. But for some reason I expected to be able to crouch-sprint. For Part I Naughty Dog removed that function after showing it in early gameplay.
    - At some points the AI is a bit too unfair while playing on survivor. Do not get me wrong. I know that the game is supposed to be really hard on this difficulty. But it simply is not cool if you are sneaking through an entire area and suddenly you get detected without an enemie being anywhere close to you. Sometimes I even have the feeling that clickers are able to see my flashlight even though the game claims that infected are not able to see it.

    That pretty much sums up my pros, "not great, not terrible" and cons. In the end I would give Part II a really good 9.6. Since Metacritic does not allow this score for user-reviews I have to round this number up to 10.    … Expand

This is the perfect example of how a very scripted game can still give a player a lot of freedom, there are countless ways to beat the same areas, and the game really challenges you to think creatively and make your way though the game as efficiently as possible by giving you very limited resources. I usually hate it when a game limits a player to make place for its story, but it's handled so well here that it really doesn't remove any of the flow in the gameplay. Also, this story is absolutely amazing, it really puts the story of the first game in a whole different perspective, it's incredible how it can make you rethink everything you've done through the game.

    Para empezar los gráficos y jugabilidad es excelente, superior a la del primer juego, los escenarios son simplemente hermosos y el juego te atrapa por completo, los enemigos son más amenazantes, ahora te lo piensas 2 veces antes de enfrentarte a un grupo de corredores, eso si eres como yo y haces que cada bala cuente, el tema controversial es la historia, para mí no es mejor que la del primer juego pero si diferente y excelente, tanto los 3 capítulos que juegas con Ellie como los 3 que juegas con abby, aunque entiendo que haya personas que no les haya agradado jugar con abby, a mí me encantó ver su historia y ver la historia del juego desde otra perspectiva, para mí la historia tenía una calificación de 11/10 hasta ***ALERTA DE SPOILER***
    la parte del teatro, el tema de luchar contra Ellie me gustó por ser diferente pero apartir de aquí la historia cambia, y no digo que sea malo, simplemente el final me encanta, ver cómo Ellie lo perdió todo por su búsqueda de venganza, su hogar, la navaja de su madre, los dedos, pérdida que hace que no pueda tocar la guitarra otra vez, y el tema de que perdió todo eso y aún así dejo vivir a abby, porque cuando estuvo apunto de matarla entendió que todo lo que hizo Joel lo hizo por ella, y así perdonandolo, y dejando a abby vivir porque ella hizo lo que hizo para vengar la muerte de su padre, en mi opinión es un final diferente, y maduro. cuando lo termine me dejó un mal sabor de boca pero luego de reflexionar todo lo que vi lo entendí, y me encantó, le doy un 9/10 simplemente porque apartir de la lucha del teatro la historia cambia de rumbo, pero es un excelente juego y el final no se queda atras.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is just incredible. People are angry and mad because of Joel's death and Ellie forgiving Abby at the last moment, also due to LGTB references. This is simply stupid!

    Everyone has to understand that Joel isn't a hero. We missed him definitely, but in a post-apocalyptic universe, life depends only on survival and is unpredictable. ND achieved to mess up with our minds, to think in a different way, to feel what other people are living, and that's great.

    The game tries to tell us that revenge is a path to nowhere. Abby killed Joel, and what did she gain? Ellie killing all her friends. If Abby killed Ellie, she would have lost Lev, the only one left in her life. Ellie tried to kill Abby, and what did she gain? Nothing. She lost everything: her family, her friends, her knife, her fingers, and the ability to play the guitar which was the last gift and memory of Joel. That's what you get for taking that way.
    Did Ellie forgive Abby only with a sudden flashback? Yes, because she remembered her last moment with Joel when she tried to forgive him after two years because he lied to her and ignored her consent in the matter. If she could forgive Joel, why wouldn't she spare Abby? At that moment, she had already lost everything, and killing Abby wouldn't be the solution, because she'd have gained Lev to go against her and look for her death, and this nonsense circle continues...

    The storyline of this game is amazing, it makes us think differently in the way life treats us. They want us to sympathize with different characters along with the game, and they do. LGTB characters make no damage to the story at all. They just try to make us understand that being a lesbian, trans, or whatever in that kind of world is meaningless. SURVIVAL is key, and anything else matters.

    Perhaps, people were expecting to play as Joel, but if you saw the trailers, it was obvious that Ellie was going to be the protagonist and any other event, besides Joel's death, wouldn't have developed the revenge feeling which was the main topic in the story.

    I respect your opinion if you didn't like it, but at least you can't deny all the excellent work and time this studio dedicated to the creation of this game. Graphics are incredible, every little detail is astonishing, gameplay mode is better than the previous game, etc. Of course, TLOU is better than TLOU2 in many different aspects, but we can't let this masterpiece behind.

    Sorry for the disappointed fans.    … Expand

    Revenge and the endless violent circle of consequences are the driving forces of this game, and it’s what makes the story of The Last of Us Part 2 so interesting. I really enjoyed this game, and even though it’s not perfect and some of the choices leave you scratching your head at times, I think that in the end, it all pays off in an impactful way.

I really enjoyed this game, and even though it’s not perfect and some of the choices leave you scratching your head at times, I think that in the end, it all pays off in an impactful way. If I have to compare it to the first game, the gameplay in Part 2 is far superior then the first. Its fun, heart-pounding, and challenging throughout. Story-wise, the first game is a tighter narrative that is very focused on the relationship between Joel and Ellie and how even in the darkness of the world they live in, there is still light to be found. Part two is a natural transition because of the actions of Joel in the first game. Part 2 is about the pain of loss and how hatred consumes people; how two sides of an issue can find themselves to be both victims and offenders. How an eye for an eye begets more violence. It’s a tough and uncomfortable story, but that’s the point. Narratively, both of the Last of Us games are one larger story that makes sense as a whole. There are things that I think could have been done to tighten the story up and make it more compelling, but to me, what was done works, and it’s definitely a title I’m planning on playing again.… Expand

    Semplicemente eccezionale, i miei più sinceri complimenti alla Naughty Dog che non delude mai e non finisce mai di stupirmi e farmi rimanere a bocca. Sensazionale.

    People is becoming kind of selfish for Joel's death at the begining of the game, and this is truly the most important part because gives the whole story a point to start.

    And they saw Joel martyr, in reality Joel was not a good person. His selfish decision ended up causing his dead and during the story we see Ellie repeating the same process.

    Neither Ellie is a good person nor Abby is a villain, if in the last of us part 1 we had a character that humanize fireflies people would understand more why Abby is not a bad person, the fact that they humanize the "Villain" is the story is flawless.

    The end leaves you with an Ellie only moved by hate and trauma against an Abby that finally found redemption and a person to emphasize (Lev). Congrats to Naughty Dog and All developers for their work in character design, an story that breaks you just like the first part and Gustavo Santaolalla for a music that join all the memorable moment in-game.    … 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]
