    2. Los personajes, cada uno de los personajes formaron parte de una historia que crea un nuevo entorno y drama... han pasado años desde la primera historia y ahora continua en parte pero tambien se ha dado un giro drástico, pues asi son las cosas. En mi opinión como fan de the last of us desde el 2013 este juego ha valido cada puto segundo.
    3. La historia que es el punto mas odiado por los “fans” es algo que ver desde una perspectiva ya avanzada. Es cierto que no se hablo mucho de las luciérnagas o la “cura” para la humanidad como se baso toda la primera parte. Pero ahora las cosas han cambiado, no pueden aferrarse a una sola idea como era el objetivo del primer juego. Ahora la historia tiene características diferentes para mostrarnos la realidad de las cosas años después durante el apocalipsis. Los personas cambian, las relaciones tambien y cada puto hecho que ocurre en la historia es por algo... nos dejan pensando en los errores del ser humano y el perdon, o cambiar a ultima hora tus decisiones ya sea para darle un mínimo de sentido a la muerte de joel, como puede ser el perdon y el seguir adelante.    … Expand

    This game was deep and emotional. There were times where I, out loud, proclaimed that I didn't want to play, that what the game was going to have me do wasn't what I wanted. That I wanted to have my revenge, my way. But the story was so compelling that it pulled me forward, sometimes it tugged me forward in spite of my own resistance. This is what the game seeks to do. It seeks to be soThis game was deep and emotional. There were times where I, out loud, proclaimed that I didn't want to play, that what the game was going to have me do wasn't what I wanted. That I wanted to have my revenge, my way. But the story was so compelling that it pulled me forward, sometimes it tugged me forward in spite of my own resistance. This is what the game seeks to do. It seeks to be so compelling that you are driven to seek a resolution, even if you have to take an undesireable path to it. And, also as intended, the path is a challenging one. Not just in gameplay or for the character, but for the player. The challenge is in confronting anger, rage, and vengeance, however well warranted and to see the consequences and to feel the weight of irrevocable decisions, even when those decisions didn't have a viable alternative.

    This game is about violence. And it is about pain. And it is about the loss of identity in giving yourself over to rage. If you are a STAN for characters over story you will probably not like this game, however beautifuly and impressively designed its imagery, graphics, details. This game is gorgeous. And with so few hiccups to execution that the most significant impact to my playthrough was my own obsessive compulsive need to conserve ammunition and to execute my tqctical plans as expertly and perfectly as possible - leading to many reloads when I as a player executed less than perfectly.

    The game's sound design is atmospheric, and haunting and paranoia-inducing as much as the first Last of Us. The use of audio cues to indicate when your actions risked observation were downright anxiety provoking. The creature performances are absolutely frightening so much so that when stalkers become silent you the player become even more terrified and paranoid.

    The gameplay, while a bit on rails as expected, does give you big open playgrounds at times which helps to alleviate the feeling of being constrained alkng a linear path hurtling towards conclusion, there truly are moments where you can stop to just appreciate the incredibly detailed environments. In my playthrough I encountered no technical glitches or game-breaking hard stops at all. I never encountered a consumable or acquireable I could not pick up. I never got stuck in a wall or door. And the camera did a fantastic job of positioning itself intuitively. While there wasn't a clear satsifying button push to lock you into the use of cover, the game does a WONDERFUL truly genre-defining job of having the character models KNOW when they are in proximity to a hard surfsce. There were times I didn't feel as in cover as I would have liked, and there is no mechanism for leaningx so often "peeking " involves actually exposing yourself to some degree, the game is actually very forgiving in this and I never felt like my choices were punished by some of the less precise tactical movements.

    Gameplay choices are consistent with the original, included the still-baffling choice that at least one character has to manufacture shivs in order to have a stabbing weapon when, 20 years-on, a fightning knife should seem de rigeur for a post-apocalyptic infectious disease zombie outbreak. Improvements to melee weapons are often little more than aesthetic and their design for arguing that they have been improved continues to beg the question of "Really? How does duct tapping half a pruning shear to a lead pipe make it any more effective or sturdy?" - a mechanic I think could've been tossed, but again, not inconsistent for the series.

    Characters... so much to say about characters and almost all of it spoilers. The characters give weight to the consequences of decisions that are made throughout the game. This game makes an extraordinarily bold choice - one that I think many of the fans giving negative reviews fail to connect with the original story, even though the parallel is clear. The Last of Us does not have heroes. It isn't a game about heroes. Joel's actions at the end of The Last Of Us were heroic or villainous depending on your point of view, the same is true of Marlene. The post-apocalyptic nightmare world of cordyceps parasitism is a harsh world of survival and of violence and of killing. Often, as in the original, the most dangerous confrontations aren't with the creatures, they are with other survivors. The morality of confronting a kill-or-be-killed world where an act of vengeance can bring a living nightmare to life beyond the ever present fungal threat makes this game all too human. The most challenging thing about this game is that it asks us to confront ourselves. To allow ourselves to be taken to a point of raw emotional rage and pain and then to objectively see ourselves in the light of that for the monster in ourselves. By the end of the game I just wanted the violent cycle to end. I wanted there to be some future not bound by pain.

    Naughty Dog CRUSHES it. They take you on a journey. And its lesson is humanity.

    I love the the music, the graphics, and the story is amazing. Like, really. A game not only about hatred and vengeance, but also forgiveness and reflection. It toys with your emotions but you have to try and see the other side of things, and it makes you feel what it’s really like to live in the world of The Last of Us. Brilliant game.

    This is a Brutal game in many aspects. It looks beautiful, it sounds beautiful and it plays beautifully. At the same time It's like watching a Clint Eastwood movie, so it's emotionally challenging and taxing. I believe that 's the reason a lot of people dislike it but that is not to say this is not objectively a good game, make no mistake, this IS a very good game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Aus meiner Sicht eine tolle Geschichte mit vielen Höhen und Tiefen und interessanten Perspektivwechseln. Wenn man das Spiel unvoreingenommen spielt und die Charaktere auf sich wirken lässt, dann kommt man nach cirka 3/4 der Geschichte dahin, dass man Abby nicht nur versteht, sondern sie mag. Sie hilft den beiden jungen, flüchtenden Scars, distanziert sich von den Wolfs, lässt Ellie, obwohl sie 2 mal die Gelegenheit hat sie zu töten am Leben ... und ist einfach der nettere Charakter als die von Rachedurst zerfressene, mörderische Ellie. Ich habe mich gefreut, dass Abby am Ende mit Lev in ein neues Leben mit den Fireflies fahren konnte. Mich hat die ganze Geschichte gefesselt, mitgenommen und ... ständig zum Nachdenken über die irre Gewalt zwischen diesen ganzen zersprengten Menschengruppen gebracht, die in dieser beschissenen, apokalyptischen Welt nichts besseres zu tun haben als sich gegenseitig umzubringen. Das einzige Spiel das mich zuvor auf diese Weise bewegt und zum Nachdenken gebracht hat war "Becoming Human".… Expand

I'm glad to see a game that fleshes out gray moral concepts. At first I was disappointed playing Abby for half the game. Then as the game progressed all I could do was empathize for for the both of them. At times I didn't know whom I was rooting for and I'm refreshed Naughty Dog would take such a risk. Part II added consequences, something that you don't deal with in part I. Hopefully this game popped some bubbles in the stereotypical gamer's lives. But just so you know. If I ever were to lose you, I think I'd lose myself...… Expand

When I first started playing as the other character I was a little pissed and was wondering if this was naughty dogs way of making me feel bad for them. After about an hour I was like **** it has worked” and I was starting to really like them. I grew emotionally attached to the side characters during the second half more than the first half. After beating this game and getting the platinum in it I haven’t been able to play other games due to not being able to find a game that had the gameplay and story like this one did. With all the hate about the LGQBT stuff. Yes it is in there but it does not shove it down your throat. It feels like it belongs and I felt it was done naturally and very well. Don’t listen to all the haters out there who have nothing better to do but try to trash a masterpiece due to their own ignorance. I highly recommend this game and suggest everyone keeps playing during the second half.… Expand

    I like Joel.But I can understand the end he deserves in this game because of what he done. This game is phenomenal. The way of story telling influences your mind and gives you the issue of what justice is.

    AMAZING GAME!

    I love games with intense stories and this game has just joined my top 5 favorite games of all time, which includes the first game in the series. Most of the negative criticism lies either in prejudice against a gay protagonist, or in the fact that in place of the characters, they would make some different choice. It doesn't change how amazing the game is. If you like    AMAZING GAME!

    My main criticism of the game would be that I found the hand to hand combat a little clunky and there was a bit if a glitch with journal entries not registering. The guitar parts were cool but a little repetitive by the end. Apart from this I think it was a really good game. I would play a third if it came out.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is a flawed Masterpiece. It had some storytelling issues but the story itself was amazing. The characters were really well written. I even started to like Abby. She is a good character and deserves a chance. The ending was kinda depressing but so is real life and the message was really nice. I don't understand all the hate. I was also mad and sad that Joel died early on in the story but that does not make the story "trash". Some people say, that there was an agenda in this game but I don't agree. All of the themes made sense and were really good executed. It's still a game, so let's talk about gameplay, graphics, music, animations etc. All of those things were perfect and I can say the same thing for the actors. The details in this game are breathtaking and I can't wait to see how it will look on the PS5. The ending is a cliffhanger and because of that I hope, that we'll see "The Last Of Us Part 3".

    I loved how the story made you question the motives of loved characters - it really shows that no one is good or evil, these characters are just trying to survive in the apocalyptic world the best they can and protect those they love... even if it means being destroyed by revenge in the process.

First of all, for anyone who hated this game deep down of their heart JUST because they read the leak or even worst because their favourite youtuber/streamer.. well i feel sorry because you cant make your own decision. Actually its 9/10 for me, I hated to play Abby at first especially how they cut Ellie story its just a bummer for me. Slowly i realized how the ND team want to make us seeing a different perspective, BUT still they failed to make me more care about Abby. in Abby scenario i played in rush and almost didnt enjoy it. especially how they make Abby stage are more linear than Elly. As a whole this game is not perfect game but i cant stop thinking about this game. i didnt readt about the leak, i got the leaked from my friends who pissboff about the LGBT and feminism, and i dont care. in the perfect world its not gonna happen anyway, also we already had Joel "hero moment" in the first game. ND put a big risk on this gam and Neil already told us it will divide us, and it worked! so what make thisbgame so good for me, i love how they potrayed Joel and Ellie relationship, they are not father and daughter they even cant say how much they love each other. Gameplay and graphic is one of the best in this generation. This is a great game but i cant recommend it to every person unlike the first one.… Expand

    Before I can say anything I feel there is a real problem with how people are rating this with a game, as far as I can tell the main issue people have is with the story. Which is fine it’s not going to be everybody’s cup of tea, it did feel like it was a specific artistic vision rather than just going for a story more designed for a mainstream audience that everyone will like but will be blander. However the story is just one (admittedly big) part of the game, and to give it 0/10 because you didn’t like the story while ignoring all the other aspects (graphics, technical aspects, performances, soundtrack etc.) then you just look like a baby throwing their toys out the pram cause you didn’t get the story you specifically wanted. Maybe if you’re not emotionally mature enough to be able to assess something as a whole and just freak out cause you’re upset, maybe that lack of emotional maturity it why some of the story is lost on you. (By the way, I’m not saying if you didn’t like the story it is cause you aren’t emotionally immature)

    My thoughts on it:

    Story- I can see why people may not have liked it but I personally loved it. Just try not to go in with too many expectations.

    Gameplay- Is a great evolution from the first game, definitely improved a great deal but still isn’t anything too special. Just fairly basic stuff done really well with a few additional features to spice things up. If you enjoy the gameplay of ND games you’ll like this basically.

    Graphics/ Technical- Games looks amazing and I had no issues whatsoever with it. Ran smoothly, no crashes and no noticeable glitches or bugs (my personal experience)

    Performances- All the cast were great, some very powerful performance even if you didn’t like the story I don’t think you can say the cast didn’t do a great job.

    Soundtrack- There were a few stand out tracks and songs but for the most part it remained unnoticed in the background which is really what it is meant to do.

    There was also just so much attention to detail and small details throughout it made the experience so much better. If you did hate the story / game I would say maybe give it some time and get some distance then maybe try it again, especially if you were a fan of the original. You might be able to enjoy it for what it is upon reflection. I do genuinely believe in the long term this game will be looked on positively (like MGS2) but if you still don’t like it that cool, not everyone has to like everything, just try and judge it fairly and as a whole.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Everyone can agree that the gameplay graphics and environment are stunning. But yet theres a lot of controversy about the story. Most people seem to neglect the fact that ND said it was going to be a game about Ellie, not Joel and Ellie. Too many fans don't seem to leave the first hour and a half of the game in their minds. They watch Joel die and then that's it for them, they spend the entire game thinking it's a run of the mill revenge story and they dont comprehend everything that's playing out in front of them. It's also seems like none of them even pay attention to the fact that Joel is still by your side throughout Ellie's journey through the game, whether its flashbacks, dialogue, or just those little moments where you know Ellie's hurting. These "fans" who bash this game don't even seem to take notice of character growth throughout the game. They don't seem to take notice that this adventure takes everything out of you and Ellie. It destroys her in emotional ways she didn't think she had anymore, and actually sickens her physically at a few points. Then you play as Abby. One of the most well written characters I've seen, phenomenal from her voice actor to her story. You're supposed to hate her at the start, but anyone in the world should realize that she's doing what almost anyone would do. You learn her backstory, how she was raised by a very caring man, how his death affected her (side note: Jerry was the the dark horse character I didn't know I'd care about this much, and it was rough when you could tell that making the cure for mankind was weighing on him because the thought of taking a child's life wasn't something he wanted.). Anyways, you watch Abby grow after the events in Jackson, and you watch her grow more than any other character in the game. She starts to understand that there's more to the world than what she sees and you can tell she understands the consequences of everything that's happened when you finally make it to the end of her journey. I've seen a lot of people say the story falls flat but, they couldn't be more wrong. I've never played a storyline game that runs you through the wringer the way that this one does. The year isn't over, and with the PS5 coming out soon, I can see it being challenged, but there's no reason this game should not win Game of the Year. It should get Game of the Decade too. And the writers should be acknowledged more for the genuine piece of art they laid out for us to enjoy. The actors should be praised for the absolutely masterful way they portrayed their characters and the developers and soundtrack people and anyone who I'm forgetting to mention should all be acknowledged too. You all truly gave us something worth the wait, something I plan on playing many more times.… 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.
