    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What a game. Amazing, superb. A game with a very strong morale. I don't understand the hate. Yes, it is not intended for children, nor for more sensitive people to. A strong story, with a very strong moral. Stay in my favorite games. Life is not just fairy tales.
    Thank you Naughty Dog.
    The 9 is because of some bugs with this new update, and because i wanted a more happy ending to Ellie. But it is what it is...

    Intense game with fantastic graphics, deep characters and a well thought out backdrop. The game world evolved & expanded, so will the characters. In a savage world where violence is common place it is futile grounds for tragedy, which include death of characters fan love.

    Love the game. First game maybe tiny bit better as it was more positive. I am glad Naughty dog didn't play it safe and made lots of controversial decisions. It looks like you can only love or hate the game, nothing in between.

    Top graphics, controls, cutscenes, this game never gets boring, it is like being part of a movie.

Some of the greatest writing I’ve seen outside of Movie and TV. The gameplay is sharp and smart. Many ways to approach the same situation with all encounters grounded in reality. Only criticism with this game is the ending. The epilogue is too long but not a horrible addition because more game is better than less, especially when well done. The actual crescendo of the game is a let down, but the first game had a disappointing ending. They wanted to tell an honest story, so the highs throughout the narrative are going to be stronger than it’s end. Expand

    Last of Us 2 is a truly impressive example of brilliant writing in video games. It's evident that everyone at Naughty Dog has put an immense amount of time and effort into crafting an intense and emotional experience. Even on a second playthrough this game still manages to surprise. There are moments and sequences in both parts of the story that still leave me floored every time. The only bad thing I have to say about this game is the fact that it still hasn't been optimized for PS5. As one of Sony's biggest and best-selling exclusives, I hope they decide to fix this in the near future so I can finally do a Grounded playthrough at a next-gen framerate.

There are some really crazy and fun sequences, and the game looks beautiful the whole time. But, it has a few problems. First off, towards the middle of the game it slows down a bit and it is the same stuff repeated a few times. Also, there were some scenes that felt a little unnecessary and a little weird. But, the last few hours make up for it as it contains some of the best sequences and game play. This game will make you cry, hell even the credits make you cry. I think the first game is better, but not by much, and that game is an easy 10 for me. Expand

    The original is in my opinion 1 of the most expertly crafted video games in the history of PlayStation.
    Knowing the developer of this game has been really consistent in making really good games for 20 years...

    The original is in my opinion 1 of the most expertly crafted video games in the history of PlayStation.
    Knowing the developer of this game has been really consistent in making really good games for 20 years...
    So i went into this with a mindset of "it is probably going to be really good like always, but the original is an almost unmatchable masterpiece even for naughty dog."
    And that's pretty much where i ended up placing this game, its really good, but its not quite the 10/10 masterpiece the original was.

    The graphics are some of the best the PS4 has to offer and match those achieved by for example uncharted 4 and god of war. With 0 lag to go along with it.
    The animations are some of the best i have ever seen, so smooth and natural, can not imagine them being better.
    Pacing felt to me as spot on, plenty of variety in gameplay and scenery.
    Level design is as always with naughty dog, masterful. there all amazingly crafted believable and natural yet smooth to play trough, a true treat to play trough.
    Gameplay has been refined pretty strongly, and feels to me as straight up better than the original.
    They seem to have implemented some things they learned from both the original and there uncharted series, and used that experience very well to improve upon the already really good gameplay seen in the original.
    The music is done by the same guy from the original, and matches the original score in ambience and emotional weight. very fitting to them game, wouldn't have picked anyone else.
    The in-game menu's however, felt to me as a downgrade however, i found the on-the-go crafting menu in the original to feel smoother and more logical to navigate trough.

    Now the story... i really liked it, its a really interesting story that takes a lot of sharp bold turns, and does not agitate to do things differently than sequels to really highly regarded originals normally do.
    And that makes for some serious WTF moments, and very hard to swallow events.
    But nothing i could not see as a realistic thing to happen, or unrealistic decision to make.
    Its an emotional rollercoaster that forces you to see things in multiple perspectives in a bold way, and i really liked that.
    Be warned however, this is a dark, dark, story!
    The original's motto was 'if lost in the darkness look for the light', that does not apply to this game and this story any-more, this is a dark and depressing story about death, sorrow, suffering, revenge & forgiveness.
    Not about finding the happiness and beauty in a seemingly devastated world.
    So if you where looking for a light hearted, zombie killing game with a story with lots of happy moods, where you agreeing or getting to choose on how how things go is important... Your looking at the wrong game.

    Honestly, i have trouble really FULLY getting why so many people SO STRONGLY hated this game.
    I feel like i played a different game then them almost.
    I think some people unconsciously had unrealistic expectations. (the game is either as good as the original or sucks)
    Some just had very different expectations as to what the story would would be about, and just couldn't bring themselves to get over the fact that the creators had a different idea than them about things.
    Some allowed the "scandals" around the marketing and release of the game to spoil the game itself.

    All things i can kind of see, if i really force myself to look for them.
    But i just cant understand how people can be in any of the listed situations and say "this game is bad."
    That a game isn't what you expected it to be, does not make it bad!
    That a game isn't a 10/10 masterpiece like its original, does not disqualify it for existing!
    A game does not need to 100% stay true to what you interpreted from a trailer from multiple years before release. People change their minds even game developers, people interpret things wrongly...
    The game itself isn't bad, just because sketchy things are rumoured to have happened around the release.
    A game isn't bad because it contains stuff you politically don't agree with.

    id say, keep, in mind the original is an almost unmatchable masterpiece & this is a very dark game.
    And you will really enjoy it! Highly recommended if you are looking for a dark story driven game, with very smooth and enjoyable gameplay with beautiful graphics in an expertly crafted word.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Firstly, I am not much of a games critic - to the point that this is, my first ever review of a game. The reason why I decided to share my thoughts is the impact that the game had on me. I will not be very original by saying that the game’s morbid story hit me with force of a horse kick. I neither expected nor wanted this feeling … and that is what makes the plot sticks with me.

    I spent around 50 hours of playing the game (in the middle of it my PS4 died and had to start from the scratch) and all of those hours, from beginning to end, created a well-structured and holistic tale of anger, vengeance, trauma & moving on. I think the game should not by any chance be rated in isolation from the first part. The reason for that is the character development, which by many might seem to be inconsistent but in my humble opinion is actually very realistic and simply makes sense. Does Ellie evolve in the direction of ‘good’ protagonist? Definitely not. But why would she? Looking at her childhood experiences, confusing five years of puberty and traumatic events of the first scenes of the game, it seems that falling into the pit of anger and despair is very life-like. The fact that Ellie is more of ‘artistic soul’ makes it even more complex – all those bleak and sorrowful feelings are more intense to her than to other characters. After portraying rise of Ellie in the first game and her fall in the second one I hope Naughty Dog will give the protagonist an opportunity to redeem herself.

    That being said I can go to the next main character, similarly traumatized but experienced by different life circumstances – Abby. I love how I hated Abby at the beginning and during game-play started to understand her motives and find similarities with Ellie. I respect the bravery of creators to ‘force’ players to fill Abby’s shoes. I liked that ‘imposed empathy treatment’ served to me – made me remember that everyone has a story and their own reasons to act in particular way, even if this is not my way. I still treat this part of the plot as a side-story, simply because I sympathize with Ellie more.

    I still miss more developed Joel’s story. Joel died with a terrible death he did not deserve. Don’t get me wrong, I do not think his death was meaningless. It changed Ellie, It changed Abby and I think the intention was to change me as well. His sudden demise still got me left with emptiness and sorrow that was not changed through the entire game.

    When it comes to graphics, it is simply amazing. The world is depicted in a very detailed and, I won’t be afraid to use the word, beautiful way. Audio, including music and sound effects, is mind-blowing. Period. You need to listen to it yourself. I found game-play amusing but simply because I was exploring the world. I understand that focusing only on main plot might seem monotonous. I don’t believe though the game was designed to go from one location to another without delving into details of the post-apocalyptic universe.

    First part of The Last of Us was not about showing adventures of Joel and Ellie. It was about showing struggle to stay human in a dehumanized world through Joel and Ellie’s journey. Is sequel then that much different?

    La cual no es la mejor del mundo pero es buena, tiene muchas cosas forzadas como el que siempre quieren mostrar que Ellie es lesbian*

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is just my honest opinion. The reason this review comes so late is because I played the game twice. The first time I was so heartbroken. It totally crushed me. I kept thinking about it for weeks. At that time I found the game **** I wasn't sure of my opinion so I searched people on yt, twitch, etc. who had the same thought of the game as me. The more and more I watched the worse I began to see the game. After that, the game still chased me. I began to wonder, should I give it another shot. So again, I looked up reviews of the game. Now, I only wanted to see positive reviews. After a lot of searching, I found 1 yt-video of Nathan Zeb. The title of the video was:The Last of Us 2 is a Perfect Sequel for the ones who want to watch it. It completed changed my mind. I gave the game a second chance.
    After playing the game twice. I understand now how wrong I was and maybe a lot of people feel this way as well. In my opinion, I think why we saw the game as a **** game is because we are to focused on Ellie and getting revenge. Once you start to look at a different point of view, you realize this game is stunning in every way.
    So to close this off and for the people who just want a recap. Watch that video of Nathan Zeb. Play the game again but try to look at it differently.

    This game was a profound experiance, equal parts aggravating and traumatizing. I really don't understand people's disappointment, experiancing a story is not always about getting the fuzzy, touchy feely positive buzz. Not every story has a happy ending, and not every story needs one.

    Bueno, efectivamente la historia no es mejor que el primer the last of us, tiene mucho errores, como la muerte de Joel que fue super forzado, que esto hizo enojar a más de una persona. Otra de las cosas fue el poco interés que llegas a tener con los personajes de las historia de Abby, realmente son muy aburridos, no son interesantes, el más sobresaliente es Manny, pero los demás hasta te llegan a caer mal. En general la historia de Abby si me gusto por la variedad de enemigos a los que te enfrentas y por las armas, es super re jugable, pero la historia llega hacer un tanto tediosa.
    En general diría que the last of us es una obra maestra a medio coser, ya que en todos sus apartados son excelentes a excepción de la historia.
    Y en cuanto a GOTY 2020 yo creo que era más que obvio que se lo llevaría, ya que no tuvo mucha competencia.

    Este comentario será en español. Creo que el juego tiene una historia sumamente interesante, una narrativa extremadamente potente y es un espectáculo visual de cabo a rabo.
    Sin embargo, creo que los flashbacks rompen el ritmo de la historia un poco. Pero sin duda creo que vale la pena gastar dinero por este juego. Todo poseedor de un PS4 debe tener este juego.

The gameplay is amazing and the kills are satisfying. the graphics are probably the best yet which just amplify the amazing atmosphere. The music, still not better than the 1st game, is pretty good. You play as 2 characters Ellie and Abby. Ellie's story is pretty good, but Abby's story is badly written at times. THe ending didn't feel satisfying to me because Abby doesn't look like Abby at the end, so it doesn't really feel like you're fighting Abby, though the epilogue was great.

    The worst element of this game is by far the addition of shamblers, these enemies are poorly designed with no meaningful strategy presented by the game to deal with them.

Extremely well crafted cutscenes, graphics, characters, details, enviroment. It actually made me feel

    It actually made me feel things, the game got me so engaged I ended up crying at the end.

    The cons:
    The story doesnt match the gameplay, this is actually a big one, replaying both the first and the second its obvious the first has a more straight-forward more linear more conventional story. Almost like a western, and the gory dark gameplay matches it perfectly, the second game though, it does has more obvious problems matching the constant killing with a revenge-story pointed at a single characher that ends in a sort of redemption story, even thoung both Abby and Ellie becomes mass murderers in the process

    I still give it a 9 bc its so extremely ambitious and it actually made me feel things no other game has made me feel, it was one of the closest things to experiencing great art I have experienced playing games.

People got mad for Joel’s death and then hated the game for what happened,o think Naughty Dog demonstrate amazingly well how the apocalipse should be,never a happy ending,always a consequence, what Joel did for Ellie may be beautiful for we(despite for the fact that he doomed the world) but for the others was despair, a nice way to think about it is to imagine that The last of us part I was entirely about Abby,and then the bad guy(Joel) killed you father,to me the protagonist is Owen who shows us that perspective of how everyone is good on their point of view,and in this mad,destroyed world,theres nothing left to us besides death.The only party that I desliked about the game was Ellie failing on killing Abby,first of all because she bad nightmares for years about that and then when she has the chance she stops it because of a flashback(?),wasnt the flashbacks that made her seek revenge?and second of all,wasnt the hole point of the game about consequences of our actions?I understood completely Abbys side but she shouldve died,then it would be an amazing sequel if Levi chased after Ellie for revenge,but maybe then he gives her mercy,then ending the “cycle of hatred”.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is truly an amazing game with an enjoyable experience to match, it achieved the exact objective it was aiming for. It has stellar graphics and gameplay. Although I still feel it was an unnecessary sequel, it was far better to have left the story with the first game & allow the players to ponder on whether Ellie knew or not that Joel lied to her or not to protect her. It was clear to see that she could tell he wasn’t being truthful. The ambiguity was way more impactful than a twisted tail of revenge on the quest for shock value. Boundaries were pushed a bit too much and it fell off the edge in parts. I truly find it hard to believe that Ellie would be that angry towards Joel for saving her life. Her anger towards him made no sense. It was really hard for me to buy into. The story also went on for a bit too long, it felt like if they spot at a certain point it would have made for a better game. I honestly struggle to be sympathetic towards Abby, I was basically on autopilot when I played as her. Part 2 opted for technical brilliance and sacrificed great storytelling. A game leaving the player far worse of than you were going into it isn’t a good mark.

The main divisive aspect of the game is its story. While I loved the way the story went, I found it to be incohesive compared to the first game. The new characters introduced mainly exist to push Ellie forward in her journey and lack any personality. The ending could have been justifiable if Ellie wasn't so bloodthirsty throughout the game.

    Beautiful game ! Phenomenal atmosphere, good story. I don't understand such low ratings, this game doesn't deserve it. I recommend everyone to try it and not follow the opinions of others

    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]
