    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Я думаю понятно что это очень хорошая и добротная игра. Как отдельный кусок произведения получилось очень хорошо, даже отлично! Геймплей, графика, сюжет, правда механики не слишком сильно изменились но они и так были воплощены до идеала.
    Если уж сравнивать с первой частью то тут всё неоднозначно. Первая часть лучше по двум пунктам... Во-первых компания Джоэла и Элли это просто бимба. Маленькая четырнадцатилетняя Элли которое всё же может за себя постоять вместе с бородатым, сильным но чёрствым Джоэлом. Во-вторых первая часть была сделана с нуля. Студия которая раньше занималась мультяшными играми по типу Crash Bandicoot взялась за создание суровой игры с элементами переключения и стелса. Вся вселенная проработана с нуля. Разработчики вообще думали что The Last of Us ждёт провал. Но этого не произошло.
    Вторую часть чуть проще было делать, хотя видно Нил Дракманн старался и я думаю у него получилось. Площадка была подготовлена, вселенная придуманна, сеттинг есть. Надо лишь было только продолжить логические историю и вывести игрока на эмоции приправляя посылом "насилие порождает насилие".
    Лично концовка мне понравилось это лучшее что могло быть в ситуации. Я могу оправдать и Элли и Эбби, но возможно склоняюсь к Элли так как она стала для нас всех родным человеком. На ваших глазах жестоко избили клюшкой для гольфа вашего практически отца. Отца которого вы не до конца простили. Те флешбеки в концовке показывают всю подлость ситуации. Элли попыталась простить Джоэла но это было лишь начала. Прощение заключается в дальнейшем общении, сопереживании, и любви фактически дочки и отца. И только Джоэла спустя два года простили, а его уже больше нет. Очень обидно и грустно. Я понимаю эти чувства Элли.
    Эбби и так уже настрадалась как и Элли. — её отца убили,
    — её товарищи и возлюбленный мертвы,
    — она осталась без дома (ВОФ). Голодная и уставшая Эбби которая была привязана на столбе. Я думаю хоть немного но она искупила смерть Джоэла. Далее убивать её — кощунство.
    Когда Элли топила Эбби она увидела тот самый флешбек с прощением, тем самым и простив Эбби.
    В концовке много посыла и смысла. Просто некоторым не понравилась сюжет. Либо фанатам которые хотели иначе, либо людям которые не поняли очевидных вещей. Начиная от локации боя, заканчивая оставленной гитарой Джоэла.
    The Last of Us единственное произведение (ни кино, ни мультфильм, ни сериал) которое оставило большой след на душе. Персонажи которым ты безумно сопереживаешь. С которыми ты хочешь встретиться, обнять, помочь и пожалеть что они попали в такую суровую реальность. Мне безумно жалко Элли...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a fantastic game. Well written with tons of character development (unlike what most people say). Character development comes in different forms, while Abby is a completely new character to the series, there is an arch with rich background. Ellie already has her background established so you have to provide her with a challenge which is losing Joel. Going from wanting to revenged to understanding of what Abby did is an arch of its own while throwing in a relationship building aspect with Dina which has its ups and downs like a normal relationship. The fact that a game can bring so many people great emotion (Love or hate) is fantastic that needs to be recognized. Another point I commonly see is that it “doesn’t stick to the Part 1 theme/style”. This brings up the Star Wars Force Awakens problem. If Naughty Dog did the same thing but slightly different, everyone would also hate it for not being a different game. Naughty Dog did well with this game. Good job building off of perfection with perfection. Expand

Un gameplay tan desgarrador y una historia que gira en torno a la consecuencia de nuestros actos. The Last of Us es una historia sobre supervivencia, y en la supervivencia no hay ni buenos ni malos, eso lo dejaron bastante claro desde la primera parte, simplemente se trata de ver quien de nosotros es el último en sobrevivir. Esta es una opinión personal, y si quieres tener la tuya lo mejor sería que no solo vieras el juego o supieras de qué va, sino que lo jugaras, como cualquier otro juego. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Translation in English:
    About graphics: This game stands next to Red Dead Redemption 2 in terms of graphics, physics and emotional feelings. The Last Of Us Part 2 is one of the darkest games.

    History and gameplay itself: This game deserves more excellent and positive ratings as for me. Yes, I understand that the loss of Joel at the very beginning of the game is like a slap in the face and such a low death, you don’t want to die on anyone on the planet or even in the entire world galaxy. girls "they flock and I don’t care about LGBT people, and gamers are divided into two types which, they’re cheating this game due to the fact that the main protagonist (hero) dies at the beginning of the game. And the second more serious case of a hat in the direction of the game is history the gameplay itself. As for me, Joel’s time has come, no matter how dark and sad it sounds.
    In general, this game as a mirror for Ellie and Abby was killed by Ellie, you can say the guardian of a teacher who has seen a lot in his life, and whose father Abby killed Joel to save the girl. Ellie had a pregnant girlfriend Mel and Ellie had Dina who was also pregnant, I mean that this game positions a difficult, difficult drink-wrenching life of two girls, and after all, most gamers do not understand the most important plot and it saddens me very much.

    About Abby: In fact, most players and fans were upset by a character named Abby; for me, this character is a game MPC (record) with a heavy history like that of Ellie.

    About the actress voiced by Abby: The popular actress who voiced Abby receives so many negative and inappropriate comments on TWITTER because the actress has nothing to do with her and she voices the characters. I consider these people stupid and idiots who only know how to write angry, swearing comments, and even with threats of killing relatives and herself. I wish the actress prosperity and good luck.

    Bottom line: I really liked the game. Once again, I repeat that many do not understand the plot itself, and who has already played and who hasn’t come to it may be due to two reasons: they did not understand the plot (or did not like it) and Joel’s death.

The relationship between joel and Ellie was the defining part of that experience, and of course Joel's arc.. As hard as it might be the ramifications from the first game were obvious! it may not be the sequel "we" wanted but its the sequel that both the series and the fans, if they truly were that, deserved.. Never has an experience game, movie, or book so effortlessly and effectively immersed you and grounded you in a way that truly makes you feel like you are taking an active part in actions that are both in and out of your control, and how that makes you feel as the story transpires is so unique. I really dont want to say much because as a fan I stayed away from ALL spoilers before experiencing it for myself, and if you can do that you will truly be blown away by the experience and adventure this game takes you on. The writing and performances are flawless, genuinely flawless and characters are incredibly and perfectly flawed.. It makes you think about characters, choices and their ramifications long after its over in a way that can only be experienced first hand.. If I had to pick one theme for this game both in and out, its perspective, which is powerful considering the hate this game has been getting for reasons I can't explain.. I'm not saying its perfect, and if you dont like it after properly playing and experiencing it for yourself, I can see how it wont be for everyone, it surely cant be..but to the people hating cuz of gender, plot they haven't experienced and homophobia, **** you! if you had a braincell in your peanut you'd come up with your own story and characters if you felt that strongly about it, piss stains.Thank you Neil and team.

It's a risky story, it really is. It should not work, but somehow it managed to be the best overall game I have ever played. Ellie's actions don't make sense until the very last moments of the game, when it all comes together and you find out what really was driving her. It may be easy to overlook if you're not paying attention, and I can see how it would be easy to hate if you're coming into the game off of the review bomb from the trolls early on. Ellies decisions are stupid at times, but in the world Naughty Dog has developed, she's a human. Her mistakes are human mistakes, and those imperfect actions are what breathe life into the story.

    The story by the way, was a masterpiece. I never knew what would happen next. From jumping perspective from character to character, and hopping back and forth through time, they do everything they can to tell the story the best they can. It's very unconventional, and I can understand how it would feel off-putting to some people, but it felt like a progression to the way we tell stories in video games. It always felt like I was just a person stumbling through a world that was alive. They put a lot effort into making the story come alive by the way, so much that the people in factions you face off against have names, and if you kill one in the middle of a conversation, they will yell out that persons name in a panicked way. There's even a block of the story where you get to explore an entire city and search for secrets all over. They really make the world felt lived in.

    I loved this game and if you want to see what it is all about, I recommend you give it a play. Oh and by the way, we learned Ellie was into girls in the Left Behind DLC in 2014. Get over it.

It is without a doubt the most emotional and gut wrenching rollercoaster ride any artistic medium has ever taken me on. Not only do they manage to make you hell bent on revenge that you will literally kill anyone and everyone to achieve it, they then make you able to relate and even feel sorry for the "villain," so much so that you even regret Ellie's decision to once again try and finish what she started. If you are at all on the fence about getting this game because of some of the bad reviews online, you owe it to yourself to pick up a copy of this and play through the whole thing. You will not be disappointed. This game truly is a shining example of how video games can be so much more than just a fun time waster. Expand

You need full attention, I mean FULL attention to really understand the story and it's message and it's much more than just revenge, it's forgiveness but also having a peace with yourself and how you deal with grief and anger. 25 hours of mostly killing people is not enough to tell a big story like this, and they're using these little subtle hints to tell what is actually happening and most people won't notice these hints, which hurts the game for those people. The game needs more time (not gameplay time) so they don't need use these subtle hints to tell the story. Plus it's not a straightforward storytelling, which is not ideal for the people that play the game intermittently, those people would forget what has happened in the game. For me it's a great solid game, with amazing acting and animation (the best I've ever seen), marvelous soundtrack, fun stealth, satisfying combat (some of it dragged out more than I would like), a little confusing story at first but not anymore. And that is 8.8/10. But I will post it 10 because so many fake players giving it 0 which is not fair at all, so a 10 for balance things out. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is undoubtedly one of the most polarizing games ever. It also happens to be one the best games I have ever played.

    Why there's such a huge disparity between the user and critic reviews doesn't surprise me at all -- people are reactionary. Once word got out that one of the most celebrated video game protagonists of all time was killed in such brutal fashion AND players were expected play as his killer, the game was irredeemable. Ellie's sexuality and Abby's masculine figure were just the cherry on top of a clear dumpster fire.

    It just so happens that all of those disjointed elements came together to form a masterpiece.

    Naughty Dog decided that a cliched storyline would be too simple -- so they decided to go against the grain and create one of the most f*cked up video game stories I've ever experienced.. and I'm glad they did. I remember watching Abby impale Joel's skull numerous times before finally putting him out of his misery right in front of Ellie. In that moment, I hated Abby just as much as you could anyone. She definitely felt "irredeemable" at that moment in time.

    Through phenomenal character development and plot direction, we somehow eventually come to empathize with Abby. We don't necessarily forgive her for murdering Joel, but we do understand why she did it and at least try to work past it. It takes Ellie murdering all of Abby's close friends and acquaintances to arrive to a similar judgement. Near the end, in Ellie's gritty encounter with Abby at the beach, we don't want either character to die. By that point, they've both been robbed of (almost) everything they had, and revenge was nothing more than a moot point.

    I quite enjoyed the ending as well. It isn't a happy ending, but it's one that gives gravity to all of the choices made throughout the game. The overwhelming feeling is "emptiness", but Naughty Dog has left a lot to our own imagination, along with a strong possibility for a third game.

    In the end, the parts of the game that linger with me are:

    Outstanding graphics - beautiful scenery, stellar facial animations
    Top-notch voice acting - as expected with Naughty Dog
    Amazing score - especially in regards to the acoustics
    Impactful story - it's emotional, brutal, and raw, blurs the line between gaming and movies
    Gameplay - major improvement from the first, really intelligent enemy AI and fun stealth/gunplay

    At the end of the day, The Last of Us 2 has a leg up on its predecessor and is in my Top 10 of this generation's games. It's one of my favorite cinematic games, up there with Uncharted 4, but factoring in the graphics, story, and gameplay, it's absolutely a must-play for anyone. 10/10

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I personally loved it. There was some issues with it such as not going in depth with the Rattlers, Owen's motives, the sex scene, but overall I thought it was good. I'm being generous with my review because I feel the game is getting unnecessary hate from "Joel fanboys" who are just triggered that the game killed off their favorite character and how "unjust" his death was.

    Granted some people may genuinely hate the game and that's ok, but I think the story was good. It made you see things from the villain's perspective and had people relating to Abby and see where she was coming from and if you can make a sympathetic villain like Abby that's good story telling. There was also little key things throughout the story that painted a bigger picture and deeper story. An example was the bracelet Dina made Ellie. It spurs questions to the end of the story. Depending on how you look at it, either Dina left Ellie or she's back in Jackson waiting for her while she says bye to Joel.

    The moral was also on par with the last game. The last game the theme of family was consistent throughout the game and in this one the theme of vengeance was also heavily emphasized.

    As for the complaints that the promos were misleading because it lead you to believe that Joel wasn't dead. I'm not sure if anyone remembers the promos for the first game, but it lead me to believe that I would be playing Ellie instead of Joel the entire time. So this isn't the first time that we've been mislead before.

    I just hate seeing a well developed game get bashed because the users disagree with the story and now it's gotten to the point of threatening the voice actors. This fandom is becoming as toxic as Star Wars and all because everyone is just upset because they're obsessed with Joel.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game takes you through an emotional journey from the beginning. The death of Joel was the most heart wrenching part of the game (among a lot of other moments). The story is told from Ellie’s and Abby’s perspectives respectively and overall it was a great way unfold Abby’s backstory, intentions and drive (which you for yourself can judge). No one in this game is a “good person” everyone is heavily flawed. Naughty Dog did an excellent job with the running theme “Cycle of Revenge” how far would you go for someone you love/care about? Would you go as far as these characters (Ellie & Abby) did? (Hopefully not). The ending of the game closed that loop for Ellie & Abby at the end of it all they still lost those close to them and ended with nothing from of their decisions. We aren’t forced in any way to sympathize with a specific character, none of the violent actions they commit are to be sympathized with, we simply go through the coaster and judge as we see. They want you to feel emotionally invested with the characters actions basically giving you a prompt to brutally attack another character making it so you start and finish the brutality. The back story given for Abby helps us understand her whether we agree with it or not. The world is disgusting, and violent as are most of the people inhabiting it. Thank you Naughty Dog for the experience, it’s definitely a work of art, you wrote a story many people may not 100% understand. Within the first couple hours you’ll decide if you like it or not and wether or not to continue playing or complain. At the end of the day it’s an amazing game with great story telling and characters.
    Work of art.

    A game that I will never forget. It certainly has faults but overall it is an excellent experience which does not deserve the bashing it has undergone. The graphics are incredible and the gameplay is a mix between Uncharted and the 1st game, while improving it. The scenario can be debatable but it is nonetheless striking.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Um dos melhores jogos que eu tive o prazer de jogar!!

    O Jogo conseguiu mexer com a maioria das minhas emoções, vivenciar uma sequencia impactante como essa, de fato como muitos falaram, não estamos prontos para esse jogo, aqueles que acharam que se tratava de uma de história de heróis e vilões, se enganaram, isso é uma história sobre pessoas e as consequências de seus atos, o jogo faz você vivenciar os 2 lados da moeda de um mesmo acontecimento, você acha que vai odiar a Abby mas na verdade você acaba entendendo o porquê dela ter feito o que fez, e como isso pesou na sua vida, a mesma coisa é a Jornada da Ellie, que você acha que ela irá concretizar sua vingança mas a própria acaba percebendo que não valia mais a pena, e ainda sim as duas sofreram e muito por conta de toda essa obsessão por vingança, Ellie perde sua família e acaba ficando sozinha, algo que ela sempre temeu, e Abby perde todos os seus amigos, com quem ela se importava e muito, e quem prestou atenção nos diálogos entre ela e os outros ex-vagalumes percebe que a maioria do grupo nao se sentiu bem pela morte do Joel e isso só afastou a Abby dos seus amigos.

    Uma frase dita pelo Alfred para o Bruce em Batman vs Superman em 2016 "É assim que começa. A febre, .A raiva, A sensação de impotência...que torna homens bons...cruéis." retrata muito bem as personagens principais, o quão cego você fica quando o ódio toma conta de você e isso só te deixa mais vazio, e no final das contas nunca vale a pena!!

    Finalizando, para mim, esse com certeza foi um dos melhores jogos que eu já joguei, que depois desse, outras empresas, utilizem esse nível de qualidade para produzir seus jogos, porque por mais que você não tenha gostado do jogo, não pode questionar as qualidades técnicas dele!!

    Parabéns Naughty Dog!! Longa seja sua sobrevivência e Rápida a sua morte!!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I played the first game almost once every year, and i liked the the second one even more.
    The story of the second one is written in a lot less accessible way to most people.

    You have to read between the lines and make your own conclusions by connecting the dots by using common knowledge and being aware to how realistic characters would react to many different types of hardships, whereas with the first game it was a more direct and literal narrative approach.

    In the first game anything that the characters thought and/or felt was easily noticeable and was layed out right in front of you.
    There's nothing wrong with that kind of story telling at all. But it is much more of a challenge, both for the writers and the players, to have a story told in a more complex and nuanced manner when it comes to the development of the characters.

    Unfortunately most people weren't able to accept that a story that didn't turn out to be the one THEY wanted it to be, could still be just as good of a story at the end. And the ones who were able to accept it and still didn't like it probably do actually have valid reasons for it. Unfortunately those people are rare and their legitimate criticisms have been lost in a sea of ignorance due to the fact that the majority blindly closed themselves off from giving the game any chance whatsoever months before the game was even released.
    All the people i've heard saying they hated the game also had the game spoiled for them through leaks.

    Very unfortunate if you ask me since i firmly believe they've robbed themselves of an experience that could've possibly been a much better one than with the first game.

    Because it sure as hell was for me.

    Did joel deserve better?
    Yes and no
    For us as the player he surely did because of the connection we had with him from the first game.
    In the grand scheme of things, he got what he deserved if you look at it from any other perspective outside of our own.

    And to the people who say that joel did deserve a more respectful way to die in an absolute literal sense.
    I want you to consider this.
    If joel had died in an act of heroism as most people wish he would have, would you have gotten as angry as you did now?
    No you wouldn't.
    Abby didn't just kill joel, he put him down as if he was a rabid dog.
    And it truly sucked...and it made us absolutely furious with abby.
    But that's the point. The player's hatred is what fuels our motivation to avenge him. That is good story telling. Period. But this doesn't mean this was a story about revenge. Because it absolutely was not. More on that later. And the people who say that joel introducing himself to strangers is uncharacteristic of him, maybe you should pay a little more attention to the actual dialog. It wasn't joel who initially introduced himself to abby's group. It was tommy. And no i'm not talking about the scene where he got shot in the leg. Before that when abby, joel and tommy were escaping from the horde, right before they got onto the horses, tommy introduced himself and joel to abby by name. Not joel. This was done in an effort to calm abby down as she was visibly distressed which was a liability. After finding out who tommy and joel were, abby lured them to her groups hideout. Now, as for people calling this a revenge story and saying that there's no real dilemma present in the narrative, think again.
    There might not be a moral dilemma present like in the first game, but there is an emotional one.
    And is drives the entire narrative of the game.
    Some might think that this emotional dilemma is ellie's thirst for vengeance, but that's not the one.
    I'm talking about the dilemma of forgiving an atrocious act committed by someone.
    And yet again, if you're thinking i'm referring to ellie forgiving abby, you'd be wrong once more.
    Because ellie never forgave abby, even at the end.
    No, instead she forgave joel.
    Which she wasn't able to do before the very ending of the game.
    This is why we get to see the last conversation ellie and joel had where ellie stated that she didn't know if she would ever be able to forgive joel, but she would like to try.
    Now because of this ellie also carries an immense amount of guilt with her since the last thing she told joel was that she didn't know if she could ever forgive him. This guilt fuels her inability to forgive joel, which in turn fuels her guilt, and so on and so on...
    The tragedy of this all is the fact ellie didnt see what we saw when during her last conversation with joel. Because after she left, joel was visably relieved. That's the tragedy.
    Joel was contempt with the way things were, while ellie feels guilt because she think she let joel die thinking that she hated him.

    People say the writing is lazy? I say everyone else is too lazy to attempt to actually understand the writing. And for what reason?
    Because their favorite character was killed off. Nothing more nothing less.

    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.
