Review-bombing something so harshly is pointless because it discredits the validity of your hate. Even if you hated the story; the gameplay, level design, sound design, pacing, combat and more, were all absolutely supreme to all other games of our generation. I frequently found myself doubling up on animations when running from the genuinely terrifying enemies, but the game didn't glitch out. It never interrupted animations that were triggered overlapping. If you pull out the shotgun, you have to physically pull it off of your back. This added to the visceral realism of the world they created; A truly challenging survival horror. This game will be forever one of the greats. And hopefully after this trendy hate train dies down in a few years, this game will resurface with the love it deserves. Congrats Naughty Dog on not bending over for the ravenous vultures that embody fan culture, and for not giving us a fan-pleasing, unoriginal piece of garbage. Already on my second play through and it's about to be the first game I've ever Platinum'd.… Expand

Standout characters are Ellie, Joel, Tommy, Dina, and Laura Bailey's new character, Abby. Gameplay is top notch too, with some of the best gunplay Naughty Dog has ever done. Stealth is also improved with new options for sneaking past your enemies: but it has a catch. Since you're more stealthy this time around, enemies are smarter, and look in places you wouldn't expect them to. The graphics are incredible and make this dangerous world feel alive. One of my favorite areas was the starting area, Jackson. The snow-capped mountains and small streams make this area beautiful and a joy to explore. My final verdict is a 10/10… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don’t know where to start. But play The Last Of Us first before embarking on this piece of art. But for me, while avoiding anything that had to deal with this game, months prior to its release and the emerging leaks. I was totally blown away from the hard working craftsmanship from the awesome people over at Naughty Dog, again. From the super smooth and gorgeous graphics to the lively gameplay and very human like characters, it feels like a fresh breeze of air for video games. The smallest details just had me paused and just acknowledge the world that you are role playing in as Joel, Ellie or Abby. Now the narrative is **** awesome from starting as Joel telling Tommy, his brother, the lie he told Ellie that her “immunity meant nothing” when in fact he saved her cause he loves her as almost as a daughter and wasn’t able to save Sarah (please play the first one, the game echos with numerous references to Part I) to the ending where Ellie let’s go of drowning Abby. I was disappointed, at first like why did she let her go? But then I thought about the Thank You letter from Neil Druckmann on behalf of ND. “-a game that we’re incredibly proud of and that we hope will enthrall you and challenge your own views of justice and empathy.” Just my opinion, but if Ellie didn’t go to Santa Barbara to seek out Abby, she would’ve died. But this game is about retribution for Joel’s death through the eyes of Ellie and Abby for why she sought him out. Which is a gnarly chain reaction. The way the team was able to mirror those perspectives, like seeing someone as the “enemy” and then you playing as the “enemy” totally sealed off whether they are the hero or villain. Instead I saw them as two beings fighting in their own theories of justice, which usually ends in violence. And for Joel’s death, yes it was heartbreaking and a punch to the gut, but no one is invincible (even in reality) in this universe and his actions finally caught up to him, he will always be a dope character and I hope they go in depth with him more in the HBO Series, but it was necessary. From his consequences to really pushing Ellie’s and Abby’s narrative it’s just a full circle ending of violence. This game will probably be seen as a modern day “Manhunt” game but really questions, is violence the answer? Really awesome playing during the COVID-19 outbreak, potential showed a dystopian for mankind if we don’t get this fixed, but was unprecedented. So it felt like a festive game, not going to lie. And also the diversity of characters that they brought into as well was like its reflection on society but the aftermath of an apocalypse. But anyways I’m on my New Game + on Survivor, collecting the collectibles, and I haven’t felt this was from a different game since Fallout 3. There’s soo much to explore and see and for it not being really open world, they make it feel like that. Finally I just want to say that seeing Naughty Dog go from Crash Bandicoot (Smash Brandi’s Cootch) to this game just shows how much they’ve grown a lot and my first game that I played ever was from them (Crash). So a big NICE **** JOB will always go to them. Game of the Year for sure and a game to top for the decade. I’m waiting on Part III, please.… Expand

    I've been playing video games for well over 20 years, and never before has a video game touched me this deeply on so many levels. This video game let's you experience it all: dread, grief, hatred, anger, confusion but also love, affection empathy, hope. It is perfect and in my opinion truly a masterpiece. It is more than just a game but rather a piece of art. It has lifted the art of videoI've been playing video games for well over 20 years, and never before has a video game touched me this deeply on so many levels. This video game let's you experience it all: dread, grief, hatred, anger, confusion but also love, affection empathy, hope. It is perfect and in my opinion truly a masterpiece. It is more than just a game but rather a piece of art. It has lifted the art of video game storytelling to a completely new level that I believe will inform the industry for years to come.

    Let me go through the relevant aspects one by one.

    Story: Simply stunning. Obviously the story is what drives this game. Never before have there been so many plot twists and moments where I was like...."WTH IS HAPPENING."...and completely surprised and moved. I was among the lucky ones to not have experienced any spoilers before release, so I was completely blown away be the story. But even if you did experience some spoilers, I still believe that the game is worth your time. You need to experience it yourself in order to fully understand the power of the story and the chraracters' progressions and development. Never has a game succeeded this perfectly at making you identify and empathize with the main characters and relive their feelings this intensely. The fact that I, as a 30 year old who has consumed quite a large amount of media and literary content, have been dreaming of this game every night for almost two weeks, is testament to how well the game manages to draw you into its world. This never happened to me before.

    Addressing the critics: The large amount of negative reviews is clearly due to review bombing. Unfortunately, our gaming culture has a problem with a large and very vocal minority of bigoted, mostly male player who are not open enough to identify with women or LGBT+ characters. They simply can't get over the fact that after 40 years the gaming industry is finally ready to tell stories of people other than white, western men. Hence, these reviews are to a large extent driven by misogyny and homo- and transphobia.

    I assure you that if you keep an open mind and truly care about the characters, which you will, if you enjoyed part 1 and aren't a total sociopath, the story will deeply affect you - irrespective of your gender or background. As in most pieces of art and in real life, things happen in the story that you wish were different. But art is not about pleasing the audience. It is about triggering deep reflection on what it means to be human. And this game achieves just that.

    Graphics: Absolutely stunning! You can see that the developers pushed the PS4 hardware to the absolute limit. The lighting, the vegetation, and especially the character models and facial expressions are next level. Exploring rainy and misty Seattle and roaming through lush, green overgrowth truly immerses you in this world. The same goes for dark tunnels or minutely recreated neighbourhoods and downtown areas. On more than one occasion have I just stood around to take the bittersweet beauty of the world in.

    Gameplay: Everything that we loved from part 1, but better! More challenging and intense fighting (especially melee fights). Way better opponent and companion AI. Better weapons and more noticeable weapon upgrades. A more motivating and satisfying skill progression arc. Simply exploring long abandoned buildings is a lot of fun. Also because of the notes and collectibles that are scattered throughout the game and give additional context to the story and different factions (significantly more so than in the last game). This is reinforced by the amazingly detailed conversations the characters have while exploring the levels.

    Sound: The sound effects and soundtrack is truly amazing. The composer, Gustavo Santaolalla, is a genius. The soundtrack is an important element for reinforcing the feeling and experience that the game invokes. I'd definitely recommend playing with good headphones.

    Overall: The game is the best game I've ever experienced. I've intentionally said experienced, because at some point in the story it is not even about having fun anymore. It is about touching our humanity and challenging our identity as a person. Never has a game required this much of me to the point were I had to take breaks, because it was emotionally exhausting. As I said, a true masterpiece that I can recommend. Thank you to Naughty Dog for creating this wonderful piece of art. I hope there'll be a part 3!!    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Enjoyed every single second from start to finish. Every single thing the developers set out to do with the story affected me in the way they had intended. Joel deserves the fate he was given, he was never a good guy. He had murdered and killed innocent people in the past and finally paid the price for his wrongdoings. I disliked playing as Abby at first, but once her reasonings were explained, I started to empathise with her, and by the ending I didn’t know who I wanted to die, I was probably leaning towards Abby killing Ellie, actually. I enjoyed the ending despite popular opinion. Ellie deserved to be alone after all the pain she caused everyone, seeking needless revenge for an act that was justified 10x over. even after murdering all of abbys friends, she still wasn’t satisfied. The last shot of her being unable to play guitar and realising that her last bit of connection with Joel was severed was heartbreaking and a good way to show her realising that seeking revenge caused her to lose everything. We don’t need a happy feel good ending all the time, and it seems like too many people struggle with empathy and things not turning out the way that they’d like. Phenomenal job in every single aspect of video game creation. I can’t stand scary games, but I couldn’t put this down because I was so obsessed. Music was incredible, combat was brutal, smooth and enjoyable. The graphics are the best I’ve ever seen and the attention to detail is unmatched. For anyone to give this anything under an 7 after experiencing the gameplay even with their moaning about the story is laughable.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It came to break paradigms in the world of games. Okay, no one expected the game to take the proportion it did, but in the end it was amazing!! The reason they killed joel in that way was just for you to FEEL like ellie. Since the purpose of the game is to FEEL what Ellie felt. If it weren't for that, the game would fail in its proposal. TLOU is not just about Joel. it's about joel and ellie, 2 had more Joel than you think. We can see that he changed and lived the rest of his life in peace. A great tribute. In that world any person would die. What did you expect? a happy ending in a **** up world? did you want an honorable death? there is no villain or hero in this game. That would be a cliché. If you agree with Ellie's revenge then you also have to agree with Abby's revenge, after all it's the same feeling. But it's about consequences of revenge and understanding that the dark mind of the human mind can be a one-way trip. Flawless script, perfect soundtrack, ambiance, graphics. This hate is totally unfounded and childish to not understand the message that the game wanted to show, congratulations played wrong.

Excuse me it is enough to see why she acts the way she acts. Ellie and her revenge is kinda way the same. Only that Ellie is also the puzzlepiece to a cure, what makes her revenge "less" understandable. Especially when u see how she reacts to the truth Joel hided from her. Abby is just out wanting Ellie dead because Joel killed her father and Ellie killed her friends. So the Ending makes sense and fits in the traumata these two women have and their character-developement.

    The Gameplay, Graphic and atmosphere is outstanding. It felt like a wonderful movie with interactions to get more and more into this world. The Last Of Us 1 was something special. But Part 2 is more a developement to the first Part, if u're focused to the details of the story and just tryin to get in the head of the main characters and their behaviour. Yes also in Abbys!

    I dont accept the crunchtime-politics Naughty Dog is doing. But after all the **** u have to pay tribute and honor the hard work their employees have done over the last years. Cheerio!    … Expand

    Very bold and ambitious storytelling that aims to challenge people personal biases by subverting expectations and I believe it's done very well.

    Some of the best characterization in a video game. Hyper realistic characters with lots of emotional depth. Really fantastic writing.

    The way most people are criticizing this game is very shallow and reactionary. I think there are valid criticisms about the game. Not necessarily all ones that I will agree completely with but more valid ones nonetheless.

    I understand if the game if the game is too grim for some people's liking. That’s going to be a preference thing and people have different thresholds for that. It's a sad, feel bad kind of game but it's also beautiful too.

    I know this is not a story many wanted.

    I had no story that I wanted. I like my expectations subverted when done well and for the most part I think they did do it well.

    I think it's one of the best, most ambitious games ever made.    … Expand

    Absolute masterpiece! The attention to detail, and deep character development was unimaginably great! Real life is full of pain, sadness and heart break... but also love, excitement, and new beginnings. This game capitalizes on all of it. 10/10 Would play it thrice times.

En esta segunda parte no solo fue bien llevada la historia sino que lo hicieron de una manera magistral y justa. Cada evento tuvo unos detalles exquisitos, de esto se trata la escencial del juego, así crudo, sin utopías heroicas de personajes de cuentos de hadas, de esto nos enamoramos, de lo contrario se hubiese condenado al fusilamiento desde los primeros minutos de la primera parte por la muerte de la hija de Joel.
    La historia es digna de reconocimiento y debe tratarse como una sola entrega y no como dos cortes independientes y como tal nos deja una gran enseñanza desde todo punto de vista como aplicativo para nuestras vidas y nuestros seres queridos en ella.    … Expand

I played the first part and I really enjoyed it to go on zombie and bad guy hunt and adventure with Joel and Ellie. The first game was truly a master peace. The second game part II also did a great job. I really hated Abby for killing my favorite or one of my favorite character but the story needed this for Ellie to evolve her character and question herself. I think that really everybody thought the last thing they wanted to do is play with Abby and i hated her so much that i let her die a few times mode just for the satisfaction. But as the story continues i began more and more to understand her. To understand why she killed Joel. She herself isn't the pure evil and Ellie isn't the true good side either. But we love Ellie. She is one of the 2 characters we met and we fell in love with as we fell in love with the first part. I can understand people who dont like the second part but I really really love it.… Expand

The plot will cause resentment in many, but as for me, this is exactly what you need. Complex and unbearably difficult denouement of the fates of our favorite heroes. Sleepless nights are guaranteed.

Вам показывают игру со стороны 2-ух героев, что бы вы поняли, что тут нету распределения "Кто-то хороший персонаж, а кто-то плохой." Это помогает понять действия каждого из них.

Да, сама идея, которую нам преподносят вначале игры, а затем в середине - проста, но не нужно забывать, что "все сюжеты давно написаны", а потому важны детали. И как раз в деталях и кроется весь сок TLOU 2. Малейшие спойлеры даже структуры сюжета могут испортить впечатление, потому что она важна для понимания как второй части, так и первой. Сюжет второй части раскрывает отчасти и сюжет первой игры, дополняя ее и придавая объема, это шикарно.
    По поводу всяких повесток - их настолько мало, что вы их можете и не заметить, это слишком субьективно, но даже если вы ярый противник sjw, то играть сможете не морщив морду по кд.
    По поводу перекаченности одной из героинь - этому есть логичное и понятное объяснение.
    Некоторые говорят, что геймплей скучный и он остался прежним - это не так. В своей основе этот тот же шутер от третьего лица с упором на стелс. Меж тем есть и приятные нововведения, вроде прыжка и уклонений в бою. Но сама по себе механика не раскрылась бы без:
    - Дико агрессивных врагов (на максимальном уровне сложности, но об этом позже). Они просто не дают продыху - постоянно наступают, обходят с флангов, закидывают молотовыми, не выстраиваются в очередь, чтобы начать вас бить, а просто стреляют на поражение (и очень даже метко). Бои стали гораздо брутальнее не только из-за повышенной детализации насилия, но и тех условий в которые ставят игрока - постоянный прессинг со стороны превосходящих групп противника, которые не дают сидеть на месте и вынуждают использовать весь доступный арсенал.
    - Обновленных локаций, прибавивших в вертикальности и обьеме. Локации стали огромными, а конкретно арены, стали гораздо больше и вертикальнее, из-за чего столкновения с противниками заиграли новыми красками, чего не было в первой части.
    Некоторые люди не заметят всей брутальности и крутости боевки из-за сложности. Дело в том, что все, что я описал выше можно испытать только проставив максимальный уровень сложности. Ибо на нем противники перестают долбиться в глаза, перестают сидеть за укрытиями в ожидании пули и начинают действительно давить на героя, припасов становится действительно мало и столкновения превращаются в головоломки. Но, если вы не сторонник максимальных сложностей, либо вам неудобно стрелять с геймпада (да еще и в 30 фпс) как мне, то можно настроить конкретные аспекты сложности (и это очень круто). Отдельно настраивается глазастость противников, их агрессивность, количество получаемых припасов, агрессивность напарников (как часто они убивают врагов), насколько хрупок игрок. Рекомендую ставить максимальную агрессию противников и поставить побольше припасов, чтобы сделать чуть-чуть больше экшона.    … Expand

    Lastly i need to mention the amazing motion capture that takes place. It's so easy to forget that you are watching animation and instead believe that these are real breathing people in front of your eyes. It will be hard to go back to the generic facial animation of almost every other game out there.

Naughty dog не подвели и в этот раз. Все кто хейтит игру ожидали что будет игра максимально похожая на первую часть, но дело в том что это совершенно другая игра. Да, с теми же героями но другая. Первая часть была дорожным приключением, вторая история про месть и про последствия. За последние годы ни одна игра не вызывала таких эмоций и переживаний за героев. В этой истории нет чисто хороших и плохих, есть обычные люди которые живут, ошибаются и пожинают плоды своих ошибок. В ходе игры приходится играть за обе стороны конфликта и это привносит свою изюминку. Игра это смелый эксперимент, неудивительно что многим не понравился такой подход. Про техническую составляющую игры и говорить не надо, все на высочайшем уровне. Геймплей очень хорош, не понимаю тех кто говорит что он скучен. Искусственный интеллект противников на высоте, я играл на максимальном уровне сложности и мне было очень нелегко. В заключении скажу мне игра очень понравилась, конечно не шедевр, но очень крепкая и сильная игра, несомненно заслуживает высокой оценки.

    Arguably it is actually on the gameplay mechanics front that I am a bit disappointed -- it is still functionally identical to TLoU1, whereas the trailers and previews suggested there was a lot more tension and smart enemy AI. In reality I am still able to very slowly and deliberately stealth my way through some levels, picking enemies off one-by-one.

    I understand this game was divisive, but for me personally it might just be my favorite game I've ever experienced. The Last of Part II is a much a darker, much more complex game than its predecessor.

Never before has a game's story played with my emotions and forced me to think about my beliefs as much as this one. The first game was one of my favorites for the same reason, but the sequel takes it a further. The gameplay is excellent, the characters feel real, and the world the game presents is a brutal reflection of just how low humanity can sink when we are pushed to our extreme limits. There is a lot of symbolism and story elements to dissect that will have fans talking for years, and for me that's a sign of some truly effective artistry. I understand why some fans are upset, but I truly do believe after some more time has passed people will understand what this game set out to do and just how excellent it is when you really allow it to be.… Expand

    "Forgive others, not because they deserve forgiveness, but because you deserve peace." This is definitely not an easy game to go through emotionally. It's a harrowing, meaningful, challenging and tragically exquisite story. It challenges you to think critically.

    I don't agree with all the bad reviews, this game is awesome. The story was great, and play with both Ellie and Abby was the bomb.

    With the Stunning graphics and the intense yet fun gameplay alone, The Last Of Us 2 is a very fun game. It's the story that makes it the masterpiece it truly is. My advice would be to sit down, absorb the beautiful graphics and buckle for an unusual way of storytelling which I find to be incredible

    An absolute masterpiece. No game has ever made me feel the way this game has. This will go down down as easily one of my all time favorites. Although a lot of people may disagree with these statements, that didn't stop me from enjoying the hell out of the 20 something hours I played.

    Сложные ощущения после игры. Коридоры и постоянные лабиринты заебали. Сюжет - идеален. Реализация всяких фишек и жестокости - выше всяких похвал.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ”The war never changes.”

    The one sentence from Fallout that comes to mind after the credits roll for Last of us 2. It is a marvelous story with great gameplay. It tells the story in many viewpoints and you can accept it and enjoy the game(or not and give awful reviews in metacritic). In this post-apocalyptic world nothing is in black and white. All are bad based on the viewpoint. Everyone you kill is a person, and you might find them in both stories.

    One of the best stories in ages. Deal with it.    … Expand

    A beautifully crafted game that holds a torch for all other sequels to look upon. I have cried, been shocked, stared in awe and have loved every minute of this game. For those that hate the game, I am positive it is because of the LGBTQ+ elements that angers them. This game is a masterpiece. A true work of art.

    A masterpiece never has a game filled me with so much emotion. The gameplay is really good and fun but the story filled me with confusion and so much emotion that I haven't felt in a long time a game you must play.

    Jogabilidade e história maravilhosos. Certamente o jogo mais caprichado da geração. Nenhuma preguiça ou ganância na hora de produzir uma obra prima que instiga o jogador a avançar e descobrir o destino dos personagens, como também faz refletir sobre como algumas escolhas e o ódio podem acabar com a vida de alguém.

    Dont listen to all the hate, the gameplay and graphics are some of the best on this generation, the story is not as easy to digest as the first game but because it explores more complex themes like great. Try to play it without spoilers, i think it can make all the difference.

    Really enjoyed this game, it came with a big shock very early on but as the game wears on and characters develop it all starts to make sense. I feel that the villains are still slow and easy to kill, using the same basic moves every time to kill them or the clickers does get a bit boring but the story line is still great and there is enough to keep things flowing nicely.

    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]
