    Un gran juego, con una historia arriesgada y valiente. Gráficos y escenarios increíbles, detallados y espectaculares.
    Sin duda su fuerte es su historia, una montaña rusa de emociones, con una gran moraleja no hay buenos ni malos, simplemente personas.

    While Part II does not have as tight of a story as its predecessor, almost every other aspect of the game has been improved significantly.

    The game is good but, there's something missing in this game I don't know what, but I think that the game could have more elements in the gameplay and other modes, like a time attack or like days gone challenges.

Why have I spent money on this. I was carrying a furious emotion started the second half of the game and rushed to see the rest of the story and proves the I am correct. However, after finishing the second half of the game, I have a completely different opinion, many things start to make sense to me.
    TLOU 1 is mostly player centric game, where characters "knows" what they are dealing with are good or bad guys. Many people carries the expectation into the sequel. But the second game's behavior neglegates their expectation.
    TLOU2 explores the change of people. When peaceful life kicks in, when people are getting older, what will change them. It is really hard to accept this change, or shift.
    I have to admit TLOU2's story needs improvement. Some of the characters' story needs a big more digging. In general, I don't think there are plot holes in it. Especially after I finished the entire game and saw the cut scene, I reallise: OK, this game is not trying to teach me anything. It is just a story telling game. Whether people's choices are right or wrong all depends on your judgement. However, you, as the player can not control it, because it is other people's story.
    Maybe I am getting older, I can understand their choices and have the sympathy on Ellie and Abby. I will give this game a 9.

    The break down:
    - Game play: 9/10

    Overall, this is a great game, despite it being different from what I expected in multiple ways, the most prominent being the story. I'll be reviewing the game by category, then adding up the categories to create a numerical score.

I'll be reviewing the game by category, then adding up the categories to create a numerical score.

    Gameplay: The gameplay is excellent. It is incredibly smooth, and while it is similar to the gameplay of the original game, it feels very refined and in general is faithful to the original while also being improved. The combat also feels quite good, with weapons feeling very substantial and rewarding to use. 10/10.

    Graphics: This may be the best looking game available on console right now. The scenery is beautiful and the character models are excellent. There really is nothing to complain about as far as graphics are concerned, and thus, 10/10.

    Sound: Like the graphics, the sound is excellent. The guns sound as substantial as they feel, if not more so. The environments also sound fantastic. The voice acting is wonderful, especially from Troy Baker (Joel) and Ashley Johnson (Ellie). 10/10.

    Story: The story is by far the most controversial part of this game, with many people disliking the direction of the developers. Unlike some people, I have finished the game and intentionally waited to review it until then. Overall, the story is good, but not great. I would perhaps have made some different choices than the developers did, but they do a good job telling the story nonetheless. It is not as good as the first game, but I believe part of that sentiment is caused by the fact that this game is much darker. The tension between the characters is noticeable and well-done, and while some people may not like the fact that the multiple stories are told in a way that sometimes feels somewhat stilted or disjointed, I did not find it to be a big issue. The end of the game does a good job of tying all of the stories together and the narrative ends up being powerful, if somewhat less than ideal for some players. 7/10.

    Fun factor: Overall, I had fun playing The Last of Us Part II. Some will call it a walking simulator with a small amount of combat, and while cutscenes are very prevalent, I think calling the game a walking simulator is unfair. If anything, it is an interactive movie. Like I mentioned earlier, I thought the combat was good and I enjoyed the many times I had to fight. I have played games that were more fun than TLOU2, but I found it to be more enjoyable than most. 8/10.

    In conclusion, I found The Last of Us Part II to be fairly well-told story that was dark and emotional. I enjoyed my experience, which was carried largely by the excellent presentation and fun, substantial feeling combat. All together, I give this game 45/50, or 9.0.    … Expand

    Man this game is bold! Such a risk taken by Naughty Dog in terms of narration! I feel like the ambition to create more than a game but rather an emotional experience completely explains why the reviews are so divisive today.
    It must be quite complex to try and decipher the human mind in order to engineer such a journey. And surely... impossible to hit the bull's eye for everyone.

    To be honest, I'm not quite sure it actually fully worked for me, even though I'm convinced I will not forget this story any soon. I'm still collecting my thoughts several days after finishing the game.
    In its own way (and unprecedented in the medium I feel) it is a masterpiece in what it tries to achieve. It just isn't the game everyone was waiting for.

    I give it a 9 mainly due to some downtimes in the storyline. Graphics, animations, music and emotional parts are top notch. I also found the game-play a lot more interesting and rewarding compared to the first opus.

    In a nutshell, as a piece of art this game is absolutely unique. As a game it is quite fun even though a bit long at times. As a story, it is definitely one to remember.    … Expand

    So as of last night when I finished the game only 14 percent of folks had also finished it, so a lot of people have an opinion on something they haven’t played through. I think that is something important to consider when looking at user reviews — most people haven’t even played the game all the way through.

    I did, and while the story definitely takes me to places I wasn’t anticipating, it was pretty masterful in my opinion. There are a couple of complaints I had about the story, but overall it delivered even if it wasn’t always comfortable or easy (and art in my opinion should rarely be comfortable or easy).

    Technically, the game is a masterpiece. I only noticed two minor bugs and had one crash on my play through. It was gorgeous, well acted, and unsettlingly brutal. The last of us part I was one of my favorite games of all time, and this compares very favorably. A hero in one persons story is a villain in someone else’s, and that’s not just life but also the story that TLOU 2 tells extremely well. I actually created an account just to review this game because it is in my opinion being so unfairly maligned. If you go into it with an open mind, you won’t regret it.    … Expand

    It was an amazing game for me. I looked at it with an open mind and was rewarded in doing so; a little more needed to be added to the story, but other than that, it was amazing. In the future, I believe this game will become a cult classic, even though it seems the general public doesn’t agree.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had originally not bought the game because I could not determine whether the negative reviews were justified or not. Now that I have ended it, I am deeply saddened by all the characters, because nobody goes home with a happy ending. And the fact that I can empathize with the characters at all has given the game a particularly intense narrative style.

    One of the biggest criticisms seemed to be that the protagonist of the first part dies. What surprised me was that someone was surprised that this could happen. Because if you look at the end of the first part and what Joel had done, you shouldn't be surprised if anyone sets off to kill him. And that's exactly what happened in the end. Whether you can understand Joel's actions or not is debatable. But that's exactly what Naughty Dog wants. That you deal with the conflict. It should be noted that Ellie could not forgive him for his actions.

    Another point of criticism was apparently Abby. And I could not understand that either. Abby has understandable motives to kill Joel and shows that she is not fundamentally malicious by ultimately sparing Ellie. Even two times. Even after Ellie waged her own vengeance against her.
    In order to draw Abby's character, a clever decision was made to make her the protagonist. And that's where you get to know their youth, their first love, their conflicts and their good deeds.

    Finally, many were bothered by the lack of revenge caused by Ellie. That too is at least as debatable as the end of the first part. Should she have done it? Would she really have been happier then? Would she suddenly have Joel back? Could she have told him that she did forgive him? What did Ellie get out of indulging in her desire for revenge? In the end, nothing more. She sacrificed her calm and peaceful life for it and won nothing for it. But she wouldn't have that by killing Abby.
    Many wanted to see revenge and apparently did not understand that the action criticizes exactly that. Those who commit themselves to revenge lose more than they win.

    Overall, the game had many moves that showed how detailed it was. Abby, for example, wasn't just strong because she wanted to be strong. She went to training every day and didn't skip a day for her revenge. Ellie lost her innocence and wit the deeper she plunged into revenge. Where she made bad jokes at the beginning was nothing more than emptiness.    … Expand

I would give this game a 9/10 almost a 10/10. The only things keeping it from a 10 are small things really, one being that I feel the game is a bit too long and drawn out, although well paced. For a linear game having more open areas was fantastic (especially early on in Seattle) however sometimes areas were unnecessary large and a chore to search, especially when nothing useful is found. I also felt the game was too easy? Maybe because I'm already used to the mechanics from TLOU1 but I played on hard and would rarely die. Also ammo and resources were more easily found than TLOU1 meaning I always had a health kit or was able to craft one. Anyway, moving past those niggles, this game is fantastic in every other way. I completed it a few days ago and I can't shake it, I'm constantly thinking about it, I'm even dreaming about the game and characters. There are things that happen in this game that will make you so angry. And thats the point. Its a revenge story. Get mad at the person who wronged Ellie, don't get angry at the game or the writers. The writers aren't there to pander to what you want, or what you think would be best for the characters. You're along for the ride, and wow is it a wild ride. You have to allow yourself to feed into the game and it's story.

    Slight spoiler here. There is a huge narrative shift in the second half of the game. And when this happened I was with a large portion of people hating on this game. I HATED what the game was making me do. I was thinking to myself 'no way am I gonna f***ing play this'. But I did. I'm glad I did. I surprisingly found myself investing in this portion of the game and if I'm honest, some of my favourite moments are from this section (mainly talking about the epic boss battle in the hospital, WOW). I still didn't love this section, but I appreciated it for what it was and why this was happening; It was essential for the telling of this games story.

    This game as I said before, is one hell of a ride. I originally was 100% behind Ellie and her revenge mission. When she succeeded in the first revenge kill, I loved it, I was cheering her on, 'die b*tch' I remember shouting at my TV. As the game progresses, and you follow Ellie and other characters, things happen etc etc, I then found myself later on on the game BEGGING Ellie not to do things, seeing the consequences first hand, seeing what it was doing to Ellie and the people around her. When I finished the game my mum asked me 'so, out of 10 what would you give it?' And at that point right after finishing it, I genuinely didn't have a rating. That's not because I did or didn't like the game. It's because it is so much more than a game, its a beautifully crafted story that for the time you are playing through it, you are just fully immersed in the world. I was still mulling over events, reeling from certain plot points, wondering about the characters.

    I apologise if this review is written really badly, I don't really do this often, but I felt like I needed to honestly tell my experience with this game.    … Expand

    Геймплей 7.5/10
    Если у вас не стоит на стелс и выживание - будете зевать так, что рискуете порвать ротан. Со времён первой части стал чуть более вертикальным. Появились уклонения (о боже мой, да это же Dark Souls 56. Нет.), Травка для пряток, пара собак и пара механик, типо вытащить стрелу из бочины, а то очень мешает. Прокачка стала внятнее, перков больше. Прокачка оружия особого нарекания не вызывает.
    В общем и целом игровой процесс именно с большими скоплениями противников стал более динамичным во время прямых конфронтаций. Отсиживаться на жопе в туалете (для этого есть другая игра в жанре батл-рояля) не получится, приходится бегать, прыгать, стрелять, кидаться говном, но желательнее кирпичами.
    (Знаю что хочешь возразить, но я сейчас про максимальную сложность.)
    Сюжет 7/10

    Давайте будем честны. Ставить всей игре 0/10 только потому, что вам не зашёл сюжет (Ну или он просто не оправдал ваши ожидания, которые возможно были завышены.) как-то глупо.
    Сюжет не оригинален и про заезженную тематику мести? Ну, и да и нет в то же время. Он скорее про то, что понятие свой и чужой просто в применении, но правильное ли в использовании. Люди всегда обезличивают других людей, причинивших им боль и страдание. Легче всего назначить таким людям статус "Абсолютное зло".
    Про то, куда может привести человека горячая от эмоций голова.
    Тривиален ли этот сюжет? Возможно. Настолько ужасен, что вы лучше будете ковыряться палкой в навозе, но не играть в игру? Не думаю.
    Чем больше вы проходите хороших игр и интересных историй - тем труднее вас зацепить. Первая стадия развития игровой импотенции, к сожалению.
    Самое сладенькое.

    Тут она есть, но её во первых мало (ничтожно, вспоминая другие игры последних лет), во вторых роли она не играет абсолютно никакой.
    В третьих, вы реально что-то имеете против лесбийских утех?))
    общем и целом хочу сказать что не так игра ужасна, как большинство кличут. Кому-то понравится, кто-то порвёт жопу от гнева (свою естественно), а кто-то рот от скуки. Кто-то возьмёт платину и перепройдёт несколько раз, кто-то дропнет на первых часах. Всем не угодишь.    … Expand

    They improved a lot in the gameplay making it feel more organic and fun and that combined with the amazing graphics make for a pretty fun game at surface level but people are not mad at this but at the story History: Yes I hated how they killed Joel, I wasn’t spoiled so the shock was real I really wanted to kill Abby I really wanted to kill her friends and Ellie wants it too so I’m in for the ride and then we start playing as Abby, I was mad at that moment I didn’t understand and then they show her life and how’s herself is like Ellie a girl that wanted revenge against the guy that killed her father, the exact same thing that Ellie wants, we can all agree that Abby is a monsters, but she start to rebuild herself as human again helping those scars kids, and she herself become someone of a Joel for lev, and if Abby is a monster for killing Joel what would have make out of Ellie to kill Abby? A monster plane and simple, as Arthur Morgan sayed revenge is a fools game... But that doesn’t mean that the game is perfect something else that I didn’t like about playing as Abby at the beginning wasn’t just the fact that I was angry at her but also that we start all over again with just a gun and a rifle and playing as Abby doesn’t ad things to the gameplay also I think that Abby backstory gets a little bit to longer and we even start to forgot about the Ellie half so I really think that this could have been done better but still is a pretty **** good game    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Here's a much needed support/rant review/comment.
    Support for Naughty Dog, LLC and rant for the so called fans who are whining about this AMAZING PIECE OF ART.

    I'll start by reminding everyone the old proverb that goes "Live by the sword, die by the sword". I really hope that most of the whiners have heard that proverb before, and if they haven't then that would explain the apalling lack of much needed reality checks.

    The reaction this game is causing in our society is a clear indicator of the sad existence of "eggshell skull heads" who wrongly believe that just because their psyches are weaker than most; then the entire world around them must adapt to their fragile needs and wants.

    A plain and simple "WTF?" Is what better describes bad reviews based on wanting to keep X character alive, or the fact that you have to kill "poor defenseless puppies" (yes that was sarcasm, that's a thing you know?) while the whole narrative of the game takes place in a post apocalyptic SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST type of crazy world, the type we all instinctively know would be super scary to live in because of those and many other uglier posibilities.

    Coming back to the proverb I mentioned: What else do you expect to have happened to Joel? The dude though a hardcore badass we could only aspire to be... had it coming for years now. Remember how he took any posibility for a cure away from humanity's grasp? I didn't hear anyone complaning then about how unjust, not caring about fellow humans and totally selfish move that was...

    Why did no one complaint then? Two things:

    1- Paraphrasing the philosophy behind Freud's "id" – We cannot 100% guarantee that we would have done any better in his shoes
    (even Tommy admitted to that) since we don't really know what would it take to turn us into a savage killer blinded by . Which is exactly what happened to Abby too.

    2- Back then we were not being bombarded with social justice crap that even thou nice on the surface, they wouldn't mean $h1+ and I yes I meant to say poop, in the world of #TheLastOfUs.
    Just think about it, no global warming would be taking place, no animal abuse for sure (plenty of flesh eating puppies runing loose), clearly most people accept LGBTQ communities in this world.
    Ain't that enough for yall snowflakes out there?

    Naughty Dog, LLC made an incredible BOLD and BRAVE move with this story. Something only people who trully know how the real world behaves would do. And to me and some great critics I've seen, such choices have made this game a #masterpiece yet again. Only constructive feedback I would give them is: next time do a better job with bugs that's it.

    PS: If you felt offended by anything I just said then I leave you one last "proverb":

It's not the popular opinion, but this was an enjoyable game for me all-around. The story kept me invested despite the twists, and I found the internal struggles of the protagonists to be really interesting. I found charm and humor, and a solid 30 hours of entertainment. I don't like that Sony tried to silence people discussing the leaks. I don't like that they tried to strongarm content creators. I don't like that forced reviews of only 40% of the story were the status quo.

    But I enjoy the game. It made me feel. It made me think. I understood what the characters were going through. I felt for Abby. I understood why she hated Joel. I understood that while playing with Joel made him my hero, I. Abby's world he represented evil and hate. Is this a generic message? Yes. It doesn't change it is an idea that has been prevalent in discussing our humanity, and has been since the beginning of time. Ellie's decision at the end made her strong. Joel made her strong. Abby wasn't just a heartless killer, she showed more compassion to Ellie than Abby ever showed her. Maybe it upsets people that Ellie would be presented in such a sadistic way, but the fact remains that Abby showed her a restrain and compassion that Ellie didn't show Abby until the very end. The end represented Ellie holding on to a little of the humanity that Joel sacrificed himself to save.

    The story was done really well and let's you see the moral ambiguity that many characters have. Everyone is likable regardless of what they've done or will do. The gameplay feels like its gone through a bit of a tune up. It is still much like the first but enjoyable enough to not notice it hasn't taken the biggest leap. Infected are still a really big issue much to the chagrin of the people who said they weren't.

El problema real recae en la historia, cuando Naughty Dog hace un Uncharted 4 dónde si disonancia Ludonarrativa es bastante evidente (la incoherencia de como actúa y lo que hace para no sonar mamador xd) una historia como The last of us te sabe hasta saber mal a la mente, el mayor problema que veo es que no es complaciente para sus fans, no es uncharted 4 dónde te deja un final complaciente y todo perfecto, este tipo de historia desafía al ti mismo y a tu persona si es que no estás acostumbrado a este tipo de historias dónde hablan del conjunto y no solamente del personaje sino lo que construye el por ello de todo lo que fue y existe dentro del universo del juego, y haber una disonancia con el público del juego pasado y sobre las personas que proyectan de lo era realmenteel mundo de The last of us y lo que realmente quiso explicar y contar Neil Druckman.

It is clearly a labor of love fromThe Last of Us 2 is a good game - putting aside the most divisive factor, the story, you're still left with one of the best games for the PS4 era. Incredible graphics, fluid and dynamic game play utilizing the best in motion matching and animation, as well as an incredible display of sound design, level design and detail, features and accessibility. It is clearly a labor of love from Naughty Dog, and the best technically from the studio. Aside from a couple of small gripes and issues (such as not being able to switch shoulders when not aiming), it's as close to perfection as you can realistically get.

    In the story department, rather than rehash the first games story into another version of itself as many fans might expect, the game uses the fundamental interactive nature of video games to do something different and risky - use the player's emotions against them in a sort of meta analysis on the tribalistic nature of mankind, loss and grief, as well as the player's own perspective in this story. I can't help but be compelled to draw comparisons between the pain Ellie feels of being robbed of a chance to reconnect with a loved one, with the pain many player's feel of being robbed of the potential connection they were hoping to have with this game based on their expectations.

    The story sets up many assumptions, and then through perspective switching and flashbacks, asks you to question what you "know": will Ellie really achieve what she sets out to accomplish; what makes a "bad" person, bad; what separates "us" from "them"; is tribalism inherit or learned; and finally - is forgiveness more powerful than revenge?

    Many will say the story is bad, or has plot holes, or is just pandering to an audience - I disagree (mostly because nobody has been able to clearly articulate why these conclusions are true). But even if these things are true, the story deserves praise for being different and daring to try something radical with a medium that is fundamentally more powerful than anything traditionally. I suspect that much of the hate the game is receiving is based on this expectation of normalcy shattered by an attempt to wrench the player through a traumatic experience - an experience that many may unwilling to examine past the initial shock, which many may be trying to pin on the game itself, rather than what's it's trying to communicate.

    Many hate this game simply for not being what they want it to be. That's fine - because not all media is designed to be what you want, and I think that's great.

    Given the impact it's already had a mere 6 days after release, I'm excited to see what kinds of discussions this game generates moving into the future.    … Expand

It forces the player to understand and sympathize with the person who wronged Ellie, and it does a fantastic job of making you care for both the protagonist and antagonist. Another thing is that Ellie is a fantastic lead character. The way she fights is desperate and brutal, and it really adds to her persona as a total badass. Anyone complaining about an "SJW agenda" is just immature and needs to realize that gay people exist and that they're normal people. So I recommend this game more than anything for its story because that is the most important part of the game, but I don't think the wild twists and turns will please everyone.

    The gameplay and graphics are amazing and the story is heavy and bleak. It's creative and makes you feel really invested in everyone and what each character does. Really must be experienced to understand. Highly recommend

    Aún que la muerte de Joel es triste, superenlo, es un buen juego, aunque me hubiera gustado que al final ellie matará a Abby y volviera a Jackson tocando la canción que Joel le tocó al inicio, pero de ahí en fuera es un buen juego

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is incredible because it did not tell the story that I wanted, instead it told the story that it had to. They really did a good a good job making a point that actions have consequences, as a result of the actions of Joel in the first game (killing that doctor who he didnt know, in a pure rampage of hate and selfishness) Abby kills Joel in the same way he killed her father. Even further that quest for Ellie in search for revenge ends up killing her friend Jesse, crippling Tommy and ultimately losing Dina and Potato in a last attempt of revenge. Even further she loses her fingers by Abby, rendering her useless when she has to play guitar, the thing she remembers Joel most.
    Abby´s quest after killing Joel is simmilar to his victim, after doing incredible harm to the victim´s family, she feels guilty and tries to regain her humanity through the innocence of a child called Lev, sound familiar? This kid stopped her bloodlust from killing Ellie and Dina, giving her a chance to live her life once again, but its hate that ultimately makes Ellie´s worst fear come true, she ends up alone.
    What I did not like was how they treated Joel´s death, it could´ve been better if he had put up some kind of fight, killing some wolves before he gets shot. Also the order of the flashbacks felt a little weird, which takes some point for me, the game is not perfect but it sure as hell is incredible.
    Graphics are out of this world, the fact that I felt disgusted by every infected, by every wolf that Ellie killed with her dagger is awesome.
    Gameplay is significantly improved with stealth, going prone and making distractions never failed to make me smart, also the jumpscares and tension this god dam game made question if I could continue playing.
    Overall the game is incredible, but not perfect, a solid 9 out of 10.    … Expand

    This game is amazing. The story is smart and beautiful. I think a lot of folks hating on the story didn't give it a chance and/or didn't stop to think what the developer was trying to accomplish. If the game had been a straight up linear tale of revenge, it wouldn't have been interesting. The artistic approach the developers used took me on a roller-coaster of emotions. I think the developers were very conscious of how the player would feel at various stages in the game and used that to heighten the story.

    It may or may not go without saying but the visuals, combat, controls, and interface are all outstanding. On these merits alone the game deserves a play through. I give huge props to their art/design/animation teams. They put some serious love and care into the designs, and it shows. The voice acting, as expected, was also exceptional.

    I do think there is some time towards the middle of the game where the story stalls out a bit, but with some patience things picked right back up shortly after.

    I don't want to throw out words like "masterpiece" or "perfect", but I will say this game was EXCELLENT. The ending will sit with me for a while and this series has a spot in my hall of fame.    … Expand

The character development in this game is amazing, you get to see these characters grow.

The visual presentation is stunning. So much attention to detail has gone into every room someone has lived and died in, or how leaks and flooding have transformed the world. The gameplay, while similar to the original, has been giving remarkable improvements, especially in the AI, that make it much more engaging to play. Enemies will scream out the names of their fallen friends, call out where they last saw you, and search dynamically around you. The story of revenge couples with the increased gore to provide a very visceral and unnerving gameplay experience. Getting to the story, the actors completely sell it. Every performance is filled with a nuance that you'd expect from film, which were able to come through with the amazing animations that accentuate the emotions in the voices.

    Now to the plot that is so controversial. It's dark, depressing, and sometimes very unsatisfying. There were times I actively did not want to participate in what Naughty Dog were forcing me to do, but because of that it was intensely powerful. The narrative is extremely different from the first, and while some may say it is disrespectful, it feels like a natural resolution of the first, instead of just a retread. While at first rolling the credits I felt a deep hollowness which was not how I finished the first, upon reflecting I realized that the game had taken its time and resolved what happened at the end of the first. Overall, this game is one of the most powerful experiences I've ever had in a video game, which is also how the original made me feel. Even though it was in a much darker way, this game was a tremendous success at showing the potential of the medium.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I very much enjoyed this game. I liked the combat and I felt that the characters were realistic. I have gripes with Abby and how they presented her, but I appreciate her role in the overall themes of the game. It's heart-achingly real in how it portrays trauma and Ellie experiencing intense guilt. I found her and her relationship with Dina an accurate portrayal of an LGBT+ relationship. I understood their motivations. Their love despite the pain around them inspire me and I feel that it's realistic.
    However, a lot of people are upset about the lack of Joel. While I enjoyed Ellie and Joel's banter, it makes so much sense for Ellie's personal growth to have him die. I don't think the way it was done was great, it certainly could have been rewritten or redone, but I think that it needed to happen.
    The experience was overall pleasant and I hope that others can have as much fun with it as I have had. Please look past the hate and see what a visual masterpiece it is. Appreciate the overall themes and character building, if nothing else.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Okay so I will say this, I feel like most people are just **** talking this game because of what they know, have seen, or heard, without even playing it. Playing and experiencing the game for yourself gives you the right to your own opinion, you are entitled to that as long as you've played it. I actually really liked the game. Do I disagree with some of the events in the story, yes, but it doesn't deserve a low average rating of 4.4 like that's ridiculous.
    In the context that we are given, things in the game makes sense, it is clear what they were going for. But if you are bias to what you've seen or heard or have already played, and you let that bias become a block, then you are not going to have the experience you want with the game, because your bias going to blind you and hinder you from being able to analyze the themes and symbolism as they are meant to be analyzed.
    The point of playing as Abby is not to tease us, haha look we're making you play as Joel's murderer, no. No one even said you have to LIKE her. The point of playing as Abby is to put us in her shoes, to try and understand at the very least why she does what she does.
    Every single new character has a meaning some less or more than others but their stories are there. Dina and Jesse are Ellie's friends, they have history, but if you don't analyze the hints the game gives you, you won't see that Joel used to think Jesse had a crush on Ellie, Ellie actually has feeling for Dina, and vice versa. You'll miss who these people are to Ellie if you don't play attention.
    Manny, Mel, and Owen are Abby's friends, this is the games way of showing us who and what Abby has to lose. Owen is her love interest.
    Abby begins her revenge story from the moment Joel decides to save Ellie, killing all the doctors at the hospital in the first game. Following up in the second game keep in my that Abby gets her revenge, she kills Joel. I heard people saying that Abby had no remorse for killing Joel but you can see that she does, i actually believe it's the reason she needs a good deed, which leads her to Lev and Yara. Lev asks her why did she go back for them, that she didn't owe them anything, to which Abby replies "Guilt.... I just needed to lighten the load a bit."
    okay so now Ellie, my baby begins her revenge story when Abby kills Joel, this haunts her throughout the game and it's apparent. She wants revenge for what Abby did to Joel. She goes to Seattle with the intent of helping and looking for Tommy aswell as looking for Abby. There is a shift in Ellie's priorities near the end of Seattle Day 2, Jesse goes to support Tommy and Ellie follows the path of revenge pursuing Abby.
    They finally encounter each other at the theater but remember by that time Abby already completed her Revenge story, what did she lose? Her Dad. What did it cost her to pursue it? Mel, Manny, Owen, even Nora.
    My baby Ellie was on the brink of extinction and my wife Dina almost got her throat slit, I was on the edge of my chair. When Ellie reveals to Abby that Dina is pregnant, she replies "good," why? because her pregnant friend Mel was killed by Ellie, so why not, right? it makes sense anger, rage, and vengeance are motives for both Ellie and Abby, but Lev representing light and innocence of good tells Abby to step down and she does.
    One year later Ellie is living a somewhat good life but is still clearly haunted by Joel's brutal death, suffering from PTSD. One Day Tommy's headass guilt trips Ellie into pursing the path of vengeance once more. But let's see, what did Ellie lose to drive her revenge story? Joel. What has she lost so far as a result of that? Jesse is dead and Tommy is very damaged. I kinda wanted to note that by this time in the game, Ellie knows this is not what she wants but she has to try because this PTSD seems like it's never gonna end, hence the "I don't sleep, I don't eat." it shows on her face when Dina begs her not to go, Ellie feels nothing so she pursues it in order to try.
    All in all, I really enjoyed the game, it sucks that everyone is so divided. Ellie chose to let Abby go because that is not who Ellie is, I mean look at Abby who actually completed her revenge story, but literally lost everything even her people, the WLF and was LUCKY to have Lev. I will never forgive Abby for what she did to Joel, but she is still a respectable person/character. Ellie in the end made the wrong choice to pursue vengeance again and it cost her, herself and her connection with Joel through her ability to play the guitar. I just want Ellie to be happy, she is very talented and skilled I hope to see her pick up the guitar again and reconcile with her family, whom she is LUCKY to have. Honestly, it feels like you have to pull apart the story piece by piece for everyone to see it for what it is... ability to analyze the truths, themes, and symbolism of this game for what they are, i think are the best part about playing it.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Believe it or not, I actually beat the game. As a person who doesn't hate trans people, women or queerfolk, I can confidently say that this game is a privilege to play. When I heard there was a trans character, I rolled my eyes expecting it to be a forced diversity cash grab. However it felt natural, infact the reasoning for such a choice made sense and propelled the story into further complex beautiful story writing. The game really makes you understand the heavy burden of what it means to take a life. The fact that NPCs that you kill have names that are cried out by their friends when their bodies are found, hits so deep. Watching your knife hit an artery as blood spews out while the victim expresses pain silently is very hard to watch. There was times I didn't want to kill to avoid this heavy burden. At times I found myself hating Abby, then hating Ellie, then loving Abby. My love and hate for the characters were ever changing and it really made you realize how nobody in this world is a completely good person. Joel of all people is definitely not one of them, yet I realized how hard his death hit, more so than any other character I've enjoyed. I love that man, and Troy Baker's voice acting, but what I hated more was saying goodbye. Another complexity I found was that the gameplay is stupid fun. So fun but morally hard to continue the killing spree that is LoU2. There was many times I wanted to fail boss battles and would let the NPC get some hits in because I was so conflicted about who should win, and what "winning" meant. Don't believe all the reviews here, some of them are just men from gamergate who haven't even played the game. My only complaint, or reason for me to not rank this as a 10 out of 10, is that Naughty Dog treated their devs very poorly. I think safety and we'll being should always be considered when ranking games. A large part of me wanted the game to suck so that Naughty Dog would see the repercussions of maintaining a bad workplaces, but the other part of me wanted it to be good so that all the sacrifice of the devs would have been worth the stress. Naughty Dog as a company needs to adopt the "ready when it's ready" policy. But people also need to go into games with open minds. Enjoy the game, I sure did. If you don't that's fine too!… Expand
