    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Видно, что за этой игрой стоит большая работа. Проработка разных аспектов и правда отличная, пожалуй даже и историю можно принять. Но все разбилось для меня, когда заставили играть за Эбби. Игра из last of us 2 превратилась в игру по мотивам. Атмосфера на месте, качество на месте, но нет связи с персонажем. И для last of us это критично.
    В первой части нас познакомили с болью Джоэла, с тем как он перешагнул через эту боль и принял Элли в свою жизнь. Мы делили боль Джоэла и переживали вмести с ним за Элли. Во второй части мы делили боль утраты вместе с Элли, нас двигала жажда мести. Что должно было заставить меня проникнуться теми же чувствами к Эбби, особенно после завязки? Это странное решение не работает для меня и, очевидно, для многих. Ряд сомнительных решений превратил эту игру для меня в 7ку, и это особенно жаль ведь всю первую половину она ощущалась как 9ка.    … Expand

    Personally, I, like many others, do not like what they did with the characters. And of course LGBT people. Also, this game cannot be given a negative review.

    This game is an atrocity. It took everything that made the first game good and destroyed it (maybe except gameplay). Holy **** what a disappointing story! I expected much more, sad.

    To paraphrase Jim Sterling talking about Shadow of War:
    - TLoU was an example of how to take a tired formula and turn it into a great game
    - TLoU II is an example of how to take a great game and turn it into a total f*ck

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us part 1 was a masterpiece of a game, it had clunky gameplay at times but it was a beautiful game set in an interesting and compelling world that pulled you in both violently and subtly, it was a true work of art. Unfortunately everything we loved about the first game was thrown away for cheap shocks and poor writing in the sequel. Everybody in the game is either an idiot or an unloveable a-hole leaving you almost nobody left to care about. They completely disregard how characters they've developed characters and how they act in order to force the plot to go where they wanted it to go. It feels like they wrote who they want to kill and how they want it to end and then went eh we'll figure it out at some point and then just forced the plot down a railroad to disappointment. They to be quite honest just spit in your face and the characters we've grown to love faces to tell this really cliche revenge story that has been told a hundred times and a hundred times better than it is told in this game. The game is paced rather poorly and you are bored for at least the first 2 hours if not the first half of the game entirely as it just crawls along like your grandfather driving on the freeway. It then forces you to play as a character you have no desire to play as and no interest to play as trying to humanize someone they've already made you hate. The graphics look fantastic and the voice acting is amazing but those are really the only good things about the game, the gameplay despite seven years hasn't really been innovated at all and remains the same thing we've had for years and the story is written so poorly that all the pretty graphics cant cover it up and even if the voices are great when the material is garbage you cant really get excited for it. Overall this game is sadly an insult to fans and itself and leaves you with only anger and disappointment as you wish you never played it and could take back the time stolen from you by this pointless slog through the sewer known as The Last of Us Part 2.… Expand

    This out of the way, people might think that is stupid, please read to the end.

    Everyone is unanimous to what's good and what's bad in this game - at least everyone who's honest.
    The mocap and other technical aspects are top notch and the accessibility features will probably be a proof of concept for years to come. That's said, good job on that.

    Now on everything else ... To me, the game is a complete failure on mostly everything.
    The gameplay in the last of us 1 was quite simple with gathering supplies, crafting different tools and shooting/melee sneaking on ennemies. What has changed in 7 years ? Not much. So little actually that it wants you to wonder, what have you guys been doing for 7 years on that front ? Did you really spend 10% of your time working on the actual gameplay and 90% on accessibility features ?

    Now to be honest, it wouldn't even be that bad since once again, everyone agrees that what made the last of us 1 a great game wasn't really the gameplay, but the story and its characters.

    Now is the rollercoaster and where i've got my beef.
    I didn't really care for that infamous scene - I was actually expecting it even though I hadn't seen any leaks, I mean the game has been advertised by Sony and ND as a quest for revenge, and in all gameplay trailers you would see Ellie as the main character ? You don't need to be a genius to make 2+2 and figure out the very few reasons that would be a motivator for Ellie to start a revenge spree.

    Does it make sense though ? Most people are arguing that involved characters would have not acted that way and it's true. You don't build up a character with traits, knowledge, behaviors, to throw that up the windows because it is convenient to make a plot advancement. And that stuff also happens with Ellie who is really just **** most of the time.
    The rest of the cast is honestly weak and uninteresting and the story in itself is pointless. I guess you would say thats the whole point of vengeance being pointless but after 30 hours of doing repetitive scavenging hunting, it leaves you with a bitter taste, not because of the story ending but because you wasted your own time. The game leaves you with nothing.

    Finally, I want to emphasize that i'm not one to care for political agendas and stuff in games, mostly I don't even care about reviews - my account creation was to make a review against what blizzard had done with warcraft 3 reforged, that says a lot about how much it had to take for me to write a review.
    Regarding the whole agendas stuff, I didn't even knew who Neil druckmann was but I have to say after seeing the bigger picture, I'm convinced that there actually is political agenda in that game.
    There's too much of it. Too much of Druckmann himself in the game :
    The DR Uckmann game card ?
    The motion capture for Manny being Neil Druckmann ?
    Neil Druckmann being jewish and the only represented religion in the game being judaism ?

    This stuff is Kojima level of putting yourself as a director into your game to the point where you put some of your own personal beliefs into the game and to the player that you shouldn't be.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm all for the representation of minorities, sharing culture and all of that but here there is something really wrong and at some point we can't just shut up to SJW and political correctness bullying.

    I guess anyone's take on the game is as good as mine but at least in put my cent to the discussion because I don't want the videogame industry to become what Naughty Dog just did.    … Expand

The game itself has not really improved since it's previous installment in the serious from the crafting mechanics to puzzle solving. The story itself has many plot holes and leaves so many questions with no answers. Also the 10 hour portion where you play a not so favorable character is not needed and should not have gone that far, I didn't care for this character for them to build on them. The current characters from the the first series are not improved upon but have literally thrown everything they have done in the first game and decided to be a different character entirely. This game needs a serious rehaul on the story to get a more positive outlook.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Last of Us Part 2 takes its time to develop the story. A story in a very hostile world that will end some beloved character’s lives. It also introduces many new characters, e.g. Abby who kills Joel at the beginning of the game. That death was a real shock (especially after playing the first game) but it fits into a world where there is no government, no rules and no law. It‘s a modern Wild West where revenge creates more revenge. At first I hated Abby for what she did, but after playing the second half of the game I was glad how the final confrontation ended. I wanted her and Lev to survive as I could understand her motivation at the beginning of the game. And I really felt like she changed over the course of the game. Please don‘t believe these review bombers. Naughty dog introduced some LGBTQ+ characters in this game but I (a 30 year old white cis male) never had the feeling they were forced into it. They fit so good in the story. Especially Lev - a trans character growing up in a religious fundamental environment. I‘ll never know how it feels to grow up in such a hostile group of people that want to kill you for who you are. But I‘m glad he found Abby who accepts him for who he is. You see I‘m texting about fictional characters as if they‘re real existing persons. That‘s what Naughty Dog did with this game - it made me forget it is a game.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Falta de ritmo, una descabellada y plana historia de venganza desmedida. Amparada por la mayor tragedia perpetrada en la historia de los videojuegos. El mas claro ejemplo de como destruir el legado de lo que para mi es uno de los mejores juegos de la historia.
    Joel no cometió ninguna atrocidad, EL mundo en el que el vivía, ya estaba destruido y de la humanidad ya no quedaba nada que salvar. Ya estaba herida de muerte por sus miserias. Pero una vez mas el destino le quería arrebatar aquello que mas quería. Y con la duda de si los Luciérnagas, serian capaces, aun teniendo los conocimientos necesarios para conseguir la tan ansiada vacuna y con los limitados y cochambrosos medios de los que disponían. La elección estaba clara. El padre de Abby estaba en un quirófano custodiado por un ejercito de Luciérnagas. La proporción era mas que desfavorable, y aun así, Joel lo consiguió, y no por que ellos no trataron de matarlo.
    Abby es un despropósito, la historia es plana , el ritmo lento y pesado. Desaparecieron las escaleras, las rampas, los puzzles, la genialidad.
    Como hubiera sido este juego, si hubierais dado la libertad real de elegir, explorar diferentes caminos, ira, o perdón. A lo largo de toda la cinta, la posibilidad real de no matar a nadie.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I will review the 3 main aspects of the game:
    - Graphics
    - Gameplay
    - Story

    1.- Graphics:
    Astonishing, beautiful and out of this world graphics. The character's expressions were so realistic. Forests, landscapes, skyscrappers, all of it, it is perfect. The physics of the game were incredible too, as a programmer, I can´t imagine how much time, frustration and coffee cups did it take for the developers to achieve only the rope's physics. Such level of detail gives this game a huge added value.

    2.- Gameplay:
    Gameplay is pretty good too. The game is significantly easier than the first one, but still challenging, the game had me restarting some encounters over and over because of me failing to achieve the encounter in full stealth. Even though I didn't use the difficulty customization, kudos to the developers for thinking about that too, and giving players options for lowering the difficulty if necessary.

    However, there were some parts that were quite boring because the game has you walking for quite some time without actually encountering enemies of any kind. This gets slightly compensated with the visuals you get to see during these long walking sequences.

    3.- Story
    This is probably the most controversial and prone to debate aspect of the game. In order to understand the writer's narrative choices, people have to understand the aim of Naughty Dog for this game.

    Clearly this is not a Joel & Ellie game as it was with the first release. In this game, our protagonists face the consequences of the decisions taken in the first game, and THEY LOSE. it is now their time to suffer those consequences. Joel dying within the 1st hour of the game is probably the most realistic outcome the story could possibly have. Players of course are not happy with these choices, but me personally, it didn't really affect me, I appreciated the story. However, there are some things I did not like, which I list below.

    - Abby's gameplay:
    It is not Abby with whom I have a problem with, but with the fact that the game makes you play with her for the last 6-8 hours. Abby is a character recently introduced, I'm not supposed to care if she's got an affair with Owen or that kind of personal things. Abby became highly relevant after you discover her relation with Joel's actions in the first game, but that aside, there's not much story to tell about her, I think that her appereance on the game could've been reduced a lot.

    - Tommy's sudden change of mind:
    At the beginning of the game he shows himself reluctant to go after Abby, and right before Abby shows at the theater, Tommy suggests to go back to Jackson, since these people've already gotten what they deserved, but then at Dina & Ellie's house, you see this arrogant and rude Tommy that out of nowhere is convinced to kill Abby and Lev. Maybe because of Jesse's death, I don't know, but it didn't feel natural for Tommy, specially because throughout both games, Tommy has clearly shown a kind personality.

    I give this game a solid 9.    … Expand

After that I liked everything, I feel that it goes a little over the issue of inclusion, there are many people with different gender preferences in the game and this is what you can know if you listen to the conversations and read some texts that you collect. I am not saying that this is bad, but in reality there are not many people like that, 1 person out of 100 has different and putting so many takes away realism. Well, the game I recommend 100%, they have to play it so they will feel more empathy with the characters, there will be strong moments in which they will feel frustrated, sad and confused by what I recommend to stop, similar and then continue. They will not play any game, because it treats the facts in a very crude and realistic way, if I could give it an evaluation it would put a 9.4 / 10.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolute garbage. To score point in shock value, they kill a beloved character for a flimsy excuse of a reason. That reason stems on a choice made in the prequel. There are players who chose the other route, and they still have to experience this atrocity of a game. This is not “gamer entitlement”.

Whilst playing as Abby I was really close to dropping off. The moment when i was hitting Ellie to death i thought this was it. I didn't wanna play it anymore. I just continued because i wanted where it was trying to get at. The last part of the game has to be the best sequence in gaming history. The inbetween showing Joel's and Ellie's relationship going through such tension was like a Greek tragedy. Neill Druckmann was 100% committed to his vision. It's a pinnacle of art. Nothing less. I don't think we'll ever get to experience something this emotionally strong in a game. The game ain't about revenge. It is about survival. Mental survival. Physical survival. Survival at any cost. I'm not saying anything about the gameplay nor the graphics because it can't get any better on ps4 it's the best we've ever had in this generation. I wish Naughty Dog to keep making their games based on their vision. Not on fan fiction or whatever makes our mostly brain dead community happy. 10/10… Expand

    The Last of Us - Part II is a dark masterpiece. Thank you for this experience Neil Druckmann. Because you're the hero games deserve, but not the one they needs right now. So they're hunting you. Because you can take it. Because you're not their hero. You're a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A Dark Knight.

    story: 7/10

    Some plot holes and conveniences, Ellie and Dina is a relationship that somehow doesnt feel earned or make sense, the story I think could have made its point by finishing earlier, I was expecting the credits to roll on the tractor scene and honestly i think I would have felt much more satisfied

    Its pretty good but by no stretch of the imagination a real strong point of this game, combat can feel repetitive, options feel very limited, controls feel a little clunky and counter intuitive, would have liked a final fantasy 7 remake menu thing where time slows right down when you pop into a menu to give you a second to think about what you wanna pull out.

    Replayability: 3/10

    This game is HEAVILY story based, a lot of games are going down this road lately which can make a first playthrough engaging but so much of this game is going through story points in not always a particularly engaging way that now im familiar with the story id be surprised if i play this through more than a handfull of times again.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game opens strong even with the questionable story beats, I thought there was some potential. Graphics, audio are top notch however after the honeymoon phase wears off the games cracks start to show. After 15 hours with Ellie the games story quickly loses all interest with unrelatable characters and incredibly slow pacing in the last half of the game. I found myself wondering why I was playing this game and why do I have to play with characters I have absolutely no interest in. Once the game jumps back to Ellie it somehow manages to get even worse with ridiculous story plots that make no sense. The ending made me feel angry and like I had just wasted my time and money. Other then the story the controls can be incredibly frustrating at times when you need to dodge and the jump button is an embarrassment considering this is the studio that brought us uncharted. The combat was fun and was almost always enjoyable and the graphics are truly the best of the generation. Ultimately the game is an embarrassment to the first game and makes me question the legitimacy of critic reviewers giving this game a 10.… Expand

    A fantastic game. It has some pacing and character issues, but it is very faithful to continuing the Last of Us world. The gameplay and combat is very reminiscent of the first game, but it is expanded and improved upon. The story takes some risky turns - think of them what you will - but they are in no way amounting to a bad story.

    So what drops the impression of this game? The new characters are weak and unmemorable, compared to the first game. The cast is too big to handle and too big to get invested in. Some of them feel like they're right out from "Until Dawn".

    The second big con is the pacing. For large stretches of the game you are in a "Princess is in another castle" situation, with nothing worthwhile to reward your trek to your destination. You return to home base, then go out on another two-hour long exploration stretch to find - nothing. Back to base. Much of the main quest feels like a side quest.

    Very small con: Why is there no Uncharted-style blindfire? That would be absolutely perfect for this game. At times, I found myself trying to blindfire, just to realize that this feature is not in the game. Patch some blindfire in there, ND.

    Here’s why I gave the game a 4/10, the story. I’m going to keep this short not to spoil anything hopefully, but I will say this. The story will leave you completely unsatisfied. Imagine the feeling of not being able to scratch a terrible itch, to never feel that satisfaction, that is how this game’s story leaves you. It honestly makes you feel like you wasted your time and money as you forcefully dragged yourself through certain difficult story elements in hope that something would be good.

    There are obvious themes the game wants to carry. Revenge is never going to fix things is probably the best way I can sum it up. Also “a there are 2 sides to every story” could be a theme in this game as well. I applaud Naughty Dog for what they tried to do, but the way they implemented these story elements makes you feel so unsatisfied at the end of the game.

    THE LAST OF US is a masterpiece. The naughty dog, as usual, enriches the scene in such a way that it is worth stopping the campaign for a while and “traveling” around the map. Gorgeous graphics, surreal lighting. Although many are not speaking well of the plot, the game perfectly portrays life in an apocalyptic setting. A game that is worth every penny and every second played.

    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.
