    El juego es una pasada, la historia te tiene enganchado desde el primer momento. Han mejorado todo, no solo los gráficos, la lucha, las armas, ahora puedes esquivar. Ojalá saquen DLC. No sé si el mejor juego del 2020 pero está entre los 5 mejores.

    Tremendos gráficos, las mejores animaciones de la generación, gameplay muy pulido, gran doblaje, buen soundtrack, historia emotiva con momentos memorables, acción, suspenso. Un juego redondo.

    This game is just a masterpiece. The attention to detail is unreal. The hate this game gets is not deserved at all in my opinion. Loved the game, the creators of this game are genius...

    The Last Of Us games are the only games I´ve ever played that made me feel so many emotions during the gameplay. It´s amazing, give it a chance.

    El juego es, EN MI OPINIÓN, una total obra maestra, no solo por su jugabilidad de primera calidad, excelentes mecánicas, ambientes e inmemorables momentos de tensión. Desde mi punto de vista logra transmitir un mensaje importante haciendo uso no solo de la narrativa, sino también de diversos elementos semióticos y un uso excelente de planos para dar simbolismo a cada situación del juego,El juego es, EN MI OPINIÓN, una total obra maestra, no solo por su jugabilidad de primera calidad, excelentes mecánicas, ambientes e inmemorables momentos de tensión. Desde mi punto de vista logra transmitir un mensaje importante haciendo uso no solo de la narrativa, sino también de diversos elementos semióticos y un uso excelente de planos para dar simbolismo a cada situación del juego, haciendo que simpatices con ambos personajes y veas el por qué de sus acciones. El juego no te pide que ames a los personajes, solo te quiere mostrar las consecuencias que traen consigo las acciones que llevan a cabo, las razones, estén justificadas o no te llevan a pensar y reflexionar en el mundo que rodea a los personajes, mostrándote que en cada cosa mala hay algo bueno y en cada cosa buena hay algo malo.… Expand

    This game is a masterpiece. Disregard the review bombing this game took. Most of these are done by angry people who just saw a few elements of the game out of context or had some prejudice against them. It builds upon the first game and takes it up a lot of levels, in a lot of ways.

    It is not however a game that will make you feel warm and tingly because everything is great the end, but    This game is a masterpiece. Disregard the review bombing this game took.

    A maior e mais impactante experiência que alguém pode ter com um video-game, tanto a narrativa, quanto a mecânica são impecáveis, uma experiência única para qualquer jogador com o mínimo de moral, inteligência e discernimento para saber diferenciar o real do ficcional e ter empatia como ser humano.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Indepth review of the last of us 2, tdlr at the bottom. The last of us part 2 is one of the unique games I've ever played. I am a massive fan of the first game, and I have played it several times until the second game was released. I spent countless hours before the games release watching videos about theories and speculations in the 2nd game, but my experience was completely different from what I had imagined. The performances from the actors were phenomenal, and the raw violence of every person Ellie murdered felt uncomfortable and animalistic. Ellie's journey of vengeance is eye candy for a psychology nerd like me, and Ellie’s troubled relationship with Joel showcased throughout the story made her revenge a Tale more intriguing. At the climax of the game, when Ellie was choking Abby, the Deuteragonist/antagonist of the story, was an emotional moment that personally affected me. Ellie's external hate towards Abby foiled with my internal hatred, as I try to forgive myself from the damage done by my depression. The game ultimately told a tale of forgiveness, and the cycle of revenge continues until one must break the chain, which often feels unsatisfied but necessary. Abby could have learned to forgive Joel, but her selfishness and failure for acceptance led to the degeneration of her social relationships and her physical body. Ellie was capable of forgiving people for their actions, as she forgave Joel for lying to her about the fireflies, and Abby, who killed her surrogate father out of blind retribution. Playing as Abby in the latter half of the story was difficult as first, as I had grown to despise her for murdering Joel, and later Jesse at the theater. But, I softened up for Abby as she protected Lev and Yara, as they were outclassed by the seraphites because Lev’s internal conflict with his gender identity, and his longing to become a brave soldier. Abby abandoned the WLF to protect Lev and becomes like a mother to him. I began to feel empathy for both characters, as they had motivations to protect others and survive. No one is good or bad in the last of us, instead, a million shades of gray. Joel slaughtered firefly doctors, and soldiers do save Ellie, who grew onto him as his daughter. Abby, who initially battled in a purposeless war with the seraphites, abandoned her old life to protect a young boy. Ellie, who despised Joel after lying to her, and a woman who took away that chance to make amends with her father, eventually learned to forgive them. Ellie is still like her younger self; she is capable of forgiveness, a non-emotion-existent in this world. Tdlr:
    The last of us part 2 left me feeling empty, saddened, but hopeful and bliss, as Ellie now can try to rebuild her life and make amends with her past. There are some minor flaws with pacing and that one sex scene, but the game left me wondering what happens after the credits? The relationships between characters felt real and emotional, and the story of revenge masquerades a tale of forgiveness.    … Expand

    If you love a challenging story and the pretty much the best gameplay you've ever played, just ignore the leak and hate and play the damn game. I judge a story by how 'much' it affects me and not how it affects me. I have never been this emotionally invested in any story before be it a game, film or TV show (ok maybe breaking bad).

I found myself completely uncomfortable by then end of the game in the best way possible. I didn't want either character to die. Because in either characters shoes I could justify their actions.

    Definitely an amazing game I don’t understand the poor reviews about the story. I felt it hit the points the directors were trying to hit where you saw both sides of revenge and how it’s not always a good thing. The improvements on gameplay also felt well done along with more simple and easier crafting also the focus on exploring the open world was great to me as well.

You eventually feel like you're in the world And you find yourself putting yourself in the characters shoes. I laughed at freaking jokes, diggers, one liners of npcs which is insane. They brought these characters to life, and at moments you forget that you're playing a video game. This game draws you in After the initial stages (about 1-2hrs in) the world is densely satisfying, and playing this on a base ps4, the graphics were beyond belief.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is a master peace. Of course it has problems but it is not the story telling wich is the most important part of a game like this. Abby was the most understendable villian. She was better than Ellie. Ellie killed almost every single creature who met Abby but she only took revange on the murderor of his father.… Expand

    In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth, shortly after he uttered the words let there be light, and there was light. After a quick smoko God said, “Let there be Naughty Dog”, and alas, the greatest gaming company was created…

    Last of Us part 2 is their magnus opus. The attention to detail is so akin to reality that sometimes I found myself shivering in scenes when manoeuvring through snow, and in others of windy overpasses, my hair swayed sitting in my living room with the windows closed. If I came across an unsettling lake or river of sorts I paused the game to put on a life vest from fear of being unable to pass from one side of the riverbed to the other safely. And this is all from an environment perspective, let us not forget the in-depth detail from the facial expression of the characters and their movements; sometimes when Ellie is looking into the camera with a look so harrowing even the bravest of humans would cower, I find myself running out of the room in tears profusely sweating and apologising to Ellie for the day I was born. By the same token, the natural flow of the conversations between the characters are so lifelike and in-depth that when I was having dinner I catch myself laying out extra plates and cutlery because I was convinced the audio making its way through my headphones must mean there were other people in my home.

    There has been much debate over the story, and I must admit, at first I was shocked in the direction they were going, although this could equally be attributed to my Revlon turbo hair dryer I bought on a hefty discount from an unregistered street vendor last winter short-circuiting.
    The deep love I have for the characters is no different to the love I have for my 7-month year old poodle who this morning thought it was a great idea to mimic the stealth in the game by sneakily and tenderly grabbing my playstation control from its charging dock, whilst I was boarding up the windows to prevent any clickers from getting inside, and attempting to bury it in the yard. Yet what I do know is change is rarely anything but good, it is a constant that is always needed. Look, do not get me wrong, I like watching Shawshank Redemption on repeat just as much as the next guy/gal, but if they made a second one with a very similar storyline, boredom and disappointment would ensue. I believe they did the best they could with the tools at their disposal (not to be confused with it being less than 99.99% amazing). The first game’s story was so original, so poignant, that I doubt something in a similar vein should have been reproduced for a sequel.

    This game is a masterpiece. I understand the frustration of other user reviews, but I don't think it justifies giving this game 0 and 1s. It is probably Naughty Dog's best game (or maybe second only to Uncharted 2).

    Simply put, this is THE BEST videogame ever created. A mature and gut-wrenching story, absolutely beautiful graphics, polished gameplay and the best sound design ever in a video game all come together to make this an absolute masterpiece. This is a new benchmark in gaming that will be talked about for decades to come.

    Loved the game. Decent story, great game play, stunning visuals and audio! Hits the message hard (revenge is bad)..while the ending has made most people upset, by the end of the 25+hours, it was pretty difficult to choose sides (despite our association with the characters of TLOU 1) and the game did pose moral dilemma a few times which was very good..

Received so much hate when it got leaked and I've got a lot of doubt about it but I went through. Last of us part II is one of best games I've had on my ps4, naughty dog breaks so much limits upon what a game can be, totally take a huge turn from the first game, in terms of beautiful high quality graphics, much more calculated and gore gameplay that keeps the spirit of the first game. A heavy, tragic, ambitious, detailed and much more complex story that shows off different perspectives and deeper reflection and realizations of the situations the characters are taking in and showing how flawed and human they can be with acting from what they are and what they will be in the world of an unforgiving and cruel setting. It is such a roller coaster ride of emotions with shocking moments that the game will make you try to invest in its characters. The story shows up the actions turning into huge consequences affecting everyone by the means of revenge, violence, love and hate makes the characters interesting for how human and real they are. There are no forced SJW or LGBTQ+ elements shoved through you it is just what it is and there are no trans characters in the game just to clarify. This is one of the boldest move that the franchise had given showing a different path than the air tight story of Joel and Ellie from each other but it still has the creativity of making a very outstanding game than other repititive elements you see from other games. Such a level up tostory driven game in this generation.
    Well please don't listen to some retarted close-minded person I've played the game its great. Most of them are **** review bombing it without even playing it and others giving it 10 rating with **** post intentions just experience the 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]
