    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First, let me say that all of the negative reviews here are from some very hateful people. Who just don't like or can't deal with the fact that Ellie is a, oh my god, Lesbian!!!

    The nerve of Naughty Dog, making Ellie into a non cookie cutter character.

    The negative reviews could also have something to do with what happens to Joel.

    But c'mon, its doubtful that all of y'all even own the game, and if you do, likely haven't beaten the thing yet.

Я думаю что большинство людей ждали что мы сейчас пойдем и разнесем, и все будут живы и здоровы. Вообщем мое мнение, игра шедевр. Хорошая графика, хороший геймплей и классный сюжет!!! Эмоций куча, прошел на стриме, было интересно и не только мне но и тем кто меня смотрел. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have played and finished The Last of Us Part II unlike 90% of the user reviews here. It’s a technical, visual, and most importantly storytelling masterpiece presented in a once in a lifetime way. People aren’t being open-minded enough and aren’t getting the message, only jumping on the bandwagon of hate like mindless sheep. Sad really, because this isn’t a “lazy cashgrab”, this is a quality game from a quality studio through and through. I understand why some people might dislike it but my only issue with it would be is pacing sometimes. I think ND did a phenomenal job in showing us both perspectives and as a matter of fact, Abby is my favorite character! The duality of Abby and Ellie, the overall arching message (although not new in on itself but is presented in a masterful way). This is a must play, and a 9.7/10 from me. Expand

    If you want to feel happy about life and the games characters, you will likely fall into the category of hate here. If you are able to analyze and appreciate the level of quality and skill ND has, at conveying emotion in their medium (and parallel to the characters themselves in real-time) - despite how that makes you feel - well you will then understand what so many critics did.

    The game is not just about revenge. It is, above all, about the human being, about survival. Part II is about the consequences of the first game, about the search for revenge that in turn leads to nothing, but simply, to loneliness, sadness and emptiness.

It is, above all, about the human being, about survival. Part II is about the consequences of the first game, about the search for revenge that in turn leads to nothing, but simply, to loneliness, sadness and emptiness. The game demonstrates and makes you feel that anyone you love can simply disappear at any time, because real life is just like that. The problem that remains is, in fact, we managed to overcome the death of one of the main characters in the first game. It is a challenge, which is precisely the same as losing a family member. At the moment we feel anger, hatred for Abby, but then we see that in fact she is not the real “villain”, but Joel was. If we think about it, Abby belonged to the fireflies, which were looking for a cure for humanity. From the other side, we saw Ellie and Joel, who literally killed everyone for an insignificant cause. If we see everything out of the box, in Part II, we love the villager and we wanted to kill the protagonist. But little by little we started to understand that abby did what she had to do, she sought revenge which in turn led her to emptiness. Ellie taking her revenge also killed all the people that Abby loved or knew, that in the end, the two were left alone, because of revenge. That's the moral of the story. Revenge leads nowhere. In short, this game should be played for those who are mature enough to understand the game. It's a masterpiece. Expand

The REASON people are giving it negative reviews, is because the story evokes feelings of hate, anger and sadness (amongst other like fear and excitement). It does so on a profound level. It's because of this reason that the game is so great! How often does a video game evoke such strong emotions? It's a testament to how good the game is. it's unfortunate that some reviewers have mistaken their feelings of hate, brought on by the story, to be an indication that the game itself is bad. But the game is fantastic and if you look at the reviews and see how polarized they are, with people absolutely loving it, or absolutely hating it, you can see there's something very interesting going on here. This game is worth playing regardless of how it makes you feel. It's worth playing because IT CAN MAKE YOU FEEL! The bottom line is it's a fantastic story with great gameplay, and it's a ton of fun and an emotional ride. I've been playing video games for 38 years. And this game just took fourth place, of all time. Expand

    Un des meilleurs jeux auxquels j'ai pu jouer.

    Tout d'abord, graphiquement, ce jeu est le plus réussi de notre génération. Vous pouvez lancer Metro Exodus en ultra avec Raytracing sur votre PC à 2000 euros, vous n'aurez pas une once de la beauté que ce jeu peu vous proposer. Le nombre incalculable de détails rendent ce jeu plus réaliste que jamais. Vous n'aurez pas affaire qu'à des textures extrêmement bien travaillées, cela, de nombreux studios savent le faire. Ici, ce monde est palpable tant le soucis du détails le rend concret.

    Le jeu profite de l'univers musical de l'opus précédent, avec de nouveaux thèmes dans le même styles. Concernant le sound design, c'est ce qui ce fait de mieux dans le réalisme et la cohérence des sons qui vous entourent.

    Du point de vue du gameplay :

    Oui vous aurez à explorer toute la carte et ouvrir tous les tiroirs possibles et imaginables si vous comptez survivre dans une difficulté élevée. Oui, les combats sont moins spectaculaires que God of War ou Uncharted
    Mais les combats vous donneront du fil à retordre, ils ne se dérouleront jamais de la même façon grâce à une des intelligences artificielles les plus réussies. Vous ressentirez la violence de la mort que vous semez, l'idée étant de servir la palette d'émotions immenses que le jeu vous offre

    Concernant l'histoire :

    Le grand point fort de ce jeu est ici, l'histoire, ce que les scénaristes et le réalisateur ont voulu nous faire ressentir. Cette partie du jeu le propulse tout simplement au rang de chef d'oeuvre. J'écrivais auparavant concernant la palette d'émotions que vous fait ressentir le jeu, vous n'êtes réellement pas prêt. Vous allez ressentir de la rage, de la haine, de l'apaisement, du dégoût, de la peur, de la déception, de l'émerveillement, et à nouveau de la haine et de la rage, pour finir sur de la compassion et de l'empathie. Aucun jeu n'avait réussi à pousser à ce point l'expérience émotionnelle liée à un jeu vidéo. En plus de l'écriture, les excellents acteurs permettent de vraiment vous impliquer dans l'histoire.

    Le jeu vous laisse un mélange de sentiments étrange lorsque vous le finirez : Tout d'abord, l'accomplissement d'une quête relativement difficile selon la difficulté choisie. La haine, la tristesse et une once de bonheur, liés à l'histoire que vous venez de vivre. Vous ressentirez également un sentiment de manque, tout d'abord concernant les événements et les personnages que vous avez rencontrés.
    Mais également un sentiment de manque, de se dire que l'on ne jouera pas à un chef d'oeuvre, de cette envergure et de cette puissance, avant des années.

Exclusive with the best graphics on ps4, best facial expressions in the history of video games, a jaw-dropping level design; exploration, stealth and shooter gameplay very dynamic and large and incredibly detailed scenarios. In addition to Gustavo Santaolalla's discrete but very striking soundtrack. Now on the issue of the plot of the game, as the creator and director himself had said before, it would not please everyone and was not made for that. It was made to really hurt. The sudden and raw death of one of the most remarkable characters in history, Joel. The introduction of one of the most controversial characters ever made, Abby. A script proposal with different points of view and an ending for Ellie with a very bitter and extremely depressing taste. All these factors were enough to split the consolidated fan base of the 1st game, and that was the intention. The Last Of Us Part II is not a game for everyone and never will be. The fundamental factor to like this game is to have empathy for characters that you initially hated. If you don't, you certainly won't like it. This is the most emotionally complex game ever made. In short, a remarkable, emotional and extremely sad story. I often say that The Last Of Us Part II was not the game we wanted, but it was what we needed. Expand

    This is the first time I am writing a review because the rating of the game is undeservedly low.
    I understand people who rate 5-7, they did not like the plot, this is normal. But to put the game 0 right on the day of release, without even playing it, seriously? The technical execution of the game is at the highest level. The facial expressions of the characters are

    The technical execution of the game is at the highest level. The facial expressions of the characters are just something incredible, emotions over the edge. Especially, of course, in the Ellie-Joel scenes.
    I will not talk about the plot, some like it, some don't. For me personally, the pluses outweighed all the minuses, and the pluses, of course, are Ellie-Joel's scenes.
    The ending is simply heartbreaking. And very grown up. And very, very sad. But I did not see anything illogical in this. It seems to me that everything is on the case. Everybody lost!
    Except for the players, of course))
    An ocean of emotions. Brilliant game.

Лгбт здесь встречается на улицах Сиэтла в виде радуги на флагах или графити на дороге. Да, это странно в рамках постапокалипсиса, но не критично. Любовь главной героини-это не пропаганда лгбт. Это просто любовь, и если не показывать ее в течение игры так как ее показывают разработчики, то нельзя бы было передать должным образом мотивацию, переживания и чувства персонажа. Мы же не за мстительную машину смерти играем, а за 18 летнюю девушку. Завязка действительно кажется банальной и высосанной из пальца, но чем дальше играешь, тем все интереснее и сложнее становится, и закручивается в огромный клубок из чувств, сопереживания и восторга от происходящего. Ну и эти 40% игры за Эбби, то чего я сам побаивался и не хотел-забудьте. Игра, сюжет, масштаб того, что происходит во время игровой сессии за неё просто поражает. Эбби великолепна, раскрыта и показана нам полностью, она замечательна. И вы, возможно, сможете ее полюбить не меньше Элли. Я почти смог.

    I've been a huge fan of TLOU and ever since Sarah died in the original game I've been hooked. I was quite skeptical in regards to a "part II" since I felt that there was no need for a sequel. There was also a lot of negative reviews here on metacritic that worried me greatly, but now that I've finished the game, there was no need to worry.

    I've been a huge fan of TLOU and ever since Sarah died in the original game I've been hooked. I was quite skeptical in regards to a "part II" since I felt that there was no need for a sequel. There was also a lot of negative reviews here on metacritic that worried me greatly, but now that I've finished the game, there was no need to worry.

    Graphics: Ranging from large beautiful landscape scenery to grim foggy forests and run down cities this has got to be some of the best work I've seen to date. Also the amazing facial animations are best in class. Without a doubt 10/10

    Music/voice acting: The music is still amazing. Emotional and it enriches the mood/story. If there is one thing that rings in my mind when thinking about the original game it's the sad hopelessness that ringings out on a string instrument. You know which tune i'm thinking off. If you don't know, play the original and come back. The voice acting seem natural and all the actors are doing a great job much like the original. 10/10.

    Gameplay: The game mechanics are very similar to the original and will feel very familiar if you played the first game. Controlling the characters is a little "clumsy" at times. There was a couple of fun new upgrades and weapons. Enemy AI is much better with regards to flanking and attacking you strategically, but its way too easy to lose detection. What bothered me most was the AI off teammates who sneak around to avoid detection, and in so doing, bumps into you and cause yourself to be detected. This game does not feel like the perfect 3rd person shooter experience, but neither is it designed to do so. Sneaking and strategic attacks are the main route and the main focus is the story. Gameplay 7-8/10.

    Story: This is a very controversial topic. It will leave fans heartbroken (me included) and hence some of the negative reviews. It's without a doubt on of the darkest stories I've experienced in a game. ND does a great job of portraying the harsh post-apocalyptic world and the most gruesome sides of human nature. This is portrayed in many ways e.g. torture and murder. It shows Ellie's loss of humanity as she desperately seeks revenge even giving up on her life dream. They do a great job with controlling the tempo of this game. You have slow relaxed parts and you have action filled sequences, but you know that you're never safe and you've learned to never let your guard down so you're on edge through the whole game. 10/10.

    Lastly, do not believe the immense negativism that is associated with this game. The negative critique is most likely written by people who have nothing to do with the game (e.g. anti-LGBT) or but*hurt people who can't come to the acceptance with the nature of this horrific post-apocalyptic world. If you played the first and enjoyed it, chances are high that you're going to like this one as well.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I unterstand why people are pissed. They don‘t like how the game killed off Joel and say that the story doesn‘t make sense. In my opinion it does. Of course, the fact that the doctor, Joel killed at the end of TLOU 1, hat a daughter that would hunt down her dads killer seems kinda random. In my opinion the story still makes sense. In the world of the Last of Us, people don’t die like heroes they just get shot or whatever and that’s it. The enemies you kill are just getting shot or stabbed and die without much drama and so do our protagonists. Joel, who forgot how to trust while living in his peaceful little town Jackson, Jesse surprisingly getting shot in the face by Abby and so on.
    Also, Ellie is not better than Abby. They both kill with no regrets, the only reason you hate Abby and love Ellie is, that you know her from the first game.
    At first I hated Abby as well but playing her backstory made me like her more and more.
    The only thing that really pissed me off is the ending.
    From the point on, where Ellie and Dina live on the farm, with Jessie’s Baby etc. the game felt kinda weird. Ellie looked weird, Abby looked like a totally different person, the whole thing just felt like a different game in the last few ours.
    The Gameplay is not the best but actually improved a lot and is way more extensive and better to control then in the first game.

    All in all I think that, even though the fame gets way too much hate, its a masterpiece and next to Part 1, one of naughty dogs best games.

They tell an important and impactful narrative through character dialogue, world design, and gameplay. It marries each aspect of the game together, aspects, that set the bar for the games industry. The animations of each character, every drop of rain, shard of glass, pustule of an infected, feels meticulously hand-crafted. The visuals are truly mind boggling as to how humans were able to achieve this in a video game. It's a story and experience I'll never forget.
