    A game that left me very disappointed. After playing The last of us 1 I was excited to play the sequel because the first game was just extraordinary, in gameplay, setting and mainly history. Instead in the second part the story is a complete disaster, forced, does not generate any empathy. It is so bad that it ruins everything else.

    Porém precisa ter estomago forte, está longe de ser uma história de mocinho e vilão, é densa e trabalha muito bem os assuntos e as emoções dos personagens fazendo você entender ambos os lados e as consequências dos atos no decorrer do jogo, definitivamente é um jogo incrível.

    Bonus: tem muita gente que critica o jogo por causa da Ellie ser lésbica, bom na minha visão foi muito bem introduzido, se fosse um casal heterosexual eu não veria diferença, porém como muita gente teclou nisso por "lacração" deixo essa nota aqui...

    This is a tragedy of a game, although the first game is one of my all time favourites.
    The gameplay hasn't moved on from the decade-long Naughty Dog formula.
    The hardest hit was the story and writing, if you've experienced the recent slew of dreadful writing from movies and games in popular culture, then you'll know what to find here: Tropes. What an absolute let-down! THEY RELY ON

    THEY RELY ON FLASHBACKS FOR NARRATIVE that should tell you enough about the writers' skill.
    You can tell by playing this through that the writers have no idea what they're doing, ham-fisted ideas, plot conveniences and boring characters (the writers really treat us like idiots on this last one).

    I found the game very good! and although many say that the gameplay is bad and the story too, I didn't think so. Incredible ambience and even with the non-linear story format is perfectly understandable. The outcome of the story is not for everyone, because, in my opinion, it requires the player to understand very well the message that the game wants to bring.

    THE LAST OF US 2 ( DETAILED SPOILER FREE REVIEW ) : Before going into the review I would like to say a few points 1) This review is coming from a gamer who played The prequel 3 times and felt that it's the greatest fame of previous generation . The sequel had a strong emotional bond with me .
    2) My total game time for TLOU 2 is 24 hours with good amount of exploration.
    3) Started the game
    THE LAST OF US 2 ( DETAILED SPOILER FREE REVIEW ) : Before going into the review I would like to say a few points 1) This review is coming from a gamer who played The prequel 3 times and felt that it's the greatest fame of previous generation . The sequel had a strong emotional bond with me .
    2) My total game time for TLOU 2 is 24 hours with good amount of exploration.
    3) Started the game with lots of expectations and saw only one review and one gameplay video before starting the game . ( Never ventured into the spoilers **** )
    4) Played the game on a base PS4.
    5) The review will be broken into different aspects with a final score and a simple verdict.

    So let's go on 1) Graphics - I am not going to talk much about the graphics as almost everyone knows how the game looks . The playstation 4 has been pushed to it's limits to achieve the graphic outrage . However the attention to detail is little underwhelming and I personally found 6 visual bugs in the whole game which can be ignored and will definitely be patched. Rating - 9/10 2) Gameplay - The gameplay took on the foundations of the prequel with lots of tweaks. The AI is more responsive . The guns and their upgrades are more accurate however few upgrades are not worth your tools . There is more variety in the fire arms u carry . There are many skill trees and u can upgrade the path as ur favourite play style. But on the negative side sometimes the gameplay appears too similar to the prequel . Also the game is very challenging at the start but as u progress forward it becomes too easy and even ur upgrade paths and skill tree acquisition also becomes very easy . Rating - 8/10 Story - the part that's in most of the debates and discussion since and before the game release . The director definitely took many bold steps in the story . There are many set pieces which are difficult to digest, I personally found few story parts very very hard to digest and these are the things that has been garnering negative reviews . But the story is very well told and is a emotional roller coaster ride. I enjoyed every part of the story . It's raw , gritty and not a fairy tale that has been told . My heart raced , my skin got goosebumps , my eyes got tears and my mouth went dry on this story .
    Rating - 9.5/10 Music - I simply lost in the music of this game . I personally feel this category is the best part of the game Rating - 10/10 . Over-all Rating - Little more than 9 and a little less than 9.5

    FINAL VERDICT - AS I FINISHED THE GAME MY DAUGHTER ASKED ME WHY ARE TEARS ROLLING IN MY EYES . THAT SAYS MY VERDICT ON THIS GAME .

    You people saying its a bad game are 1 of 2 things:
    1: havent played the full game and dont get the history and the message behind it all.
    2: felt angry because of the diversity of the game, which was natural and not at all forced. The game has a complex story that goes full circle, it represents hate and how far you can go to accomplish it, how blind revenge is and how the cicle of hate

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. *SPOILERS INCLUDED IN THIS REVIEW*

    Ignore the obvious review-bombing by unhappy fans that were pissed about Joel getting a golf club taken to his head. If you're mad that a fan favorite character was killed, and you expected him to be a hero, you completely missed the point of the first game, and this one as well. Joel was a **** monster. He massacred an entire hospital worth of people who could have cured the virus, just because he couldn't bear losing Ellie. That's disgustingly selfish. With this game, while I do understand that playing as the character who killed Joel could piss off a lot of people, the writers intended for us to see both sides of the story. In Abby's world, Ellie and Joel are the villains. Joel murdered her father, and she wanted revenge. The events of the first game set up this cycle. There is a proverb that states "When you embark on a journey of revenge, be sure to dig two graves."

    I also can't praise the environments, the lighting, animations, and design of this game. It is an absolute visual masterpiece.

    My final thoughts on this game are: It was dark, like Requiem for a Dream dark. It is not meant to be a feel good story. At times it can be downright disturbing. But at the end of it, I was left with a feeling of satisfaction. Do I think the ending made sense the way it happened? In my view, unless Abby and Ellie killed each other at the end, the way it actually ended was the only way it could have ended. I don't know what's in store for LoU3, but I'll damn sure be waiting with baited breath for what will hopefully be a fantastic conclusion to an amazing story.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story is not coherent with the first part. Because Joel doesn't trust in anyone. Then his death is very stupid. And Ellie, she loves him... in the first part she can murder anyone to protect Joel. For me, this story is not coherent.

    Also, in the trailers viewed for this game... Joel hads more participation than the real version. That's misleading adverstising.

    A masterpiece but not on par with part 1(maybe because it's too depressing). A bold storytelling unlike any story game I've ever played. Minus the execution of some stuff that kinda don't make sense in the world of the last of us, everything else is pure perfection. Definitely a groundbreaking game.

Им наверняка больно видеть такой поток помоев в сторону своей игры, в которую вложено столько лет труда. Хотя, если они не дураки, то понимают, что эти нули-тройки были поставлены троллями, в игру не игравшими, или просто недалекими людьми, которые не могут быть хотя бы чуточку объективным.
    Вряд ли хоть кто-то прочитает это - не то что до конца, а хотя бы от начала, но все же: игру оценивают по совокупности её составляющих: сюжет, графика, музыка и звук, а так же геймплей (как ни странно!). Неужели все это сделано настолько плохо, что в итоге выходит ноль?

Gamers waited for years to get this game, and you create a game to set your political agenda, also you cannot kill the killer of your "father", seriously? This is because she is trans? I hope this saga dies right now Expand

    You have the right to not like this game, but dislike it for the good reason, not because the story take turn that YOU don't like. This is a masterpiece, this game really explore what makes us human; emotion, psychology, mind state and what we do for what reason.

    Let me give you a small text that ND put on a Lithograph in the Collector Edition and believe me, this is what a lot of player should read before saying this game suck.

    '' What would you do if someone you loved was the victim of a cruel an violent act? How easily could one's mind tip toward violent retribution? How far would you go to bring the people responsible to justice? if you were successful, how would it change you? would ever be the same?

    With The Last Of Us Part II, we set out to create an experience that explore these difficult questions, the darkest sides of human nature, and the vicious cycles of violence that we witness in the world around us on a daily basis. The result is a game crafted by hundreds of developers that pushed themselves to create something more than a mere entertainment -a game that we're incredibly proud of an that we hope will enthrall you and challenge your own views of justice and empathy.''

    Whoever read this, play this game and still say they ruined the franchise and such, definitely doesn't know how human/brain work.

    11/10 would cry again

    Bored. Uninteresting tropes with a muddled, uninspired message. Bad writing, cheap tricks, manipulation, and pathetic last minute twists to try to make the mediocre story have more punch. It's bad. I've seen people try to compare this to great movies like 'Schindler's List' (this disgusts me personally). At best this game should be compared to a run of the mill, throwaway, summerBored. Uninteresting tropes with a muddled, uninspired message.

    The gameplay is good. Oddly enough, they wanted the game to be about how violence and revenge is bad. But the gameplay where you commit this violence is one of the best things about the game.
    The graphics and world environment are awesome. Cannot stress this. It's really great.
    The actors themselves have done a great job. They do their very best to make the story great and I cannot fault them at all. Superb acting.
    Everything bad about this game, is the writing. If you wanted an incredible story like The Last Of Us, you won't find it here.
    I'm going to give this a 3/10. As I said above everything is great except the story. However, this game following the incredible story of the first one, that is what people expected, an incredible story, and didn't deliver at all. Just...amateur honestly.

The plot is stupid from the get-go, Joel and Tommy survived over 20 years of the apocalypse by being careful who they befriend and reveal anything about themselves, just to hand Abby their names on a silver platter? F*ck off Neil, you should be ashamed of how lazy you wrote this. Furthermore, you dare to make the whole game about avenging Joel's death and then deny the player the choice of whether they should spare Abby or kill her? F*ck off again! THE WORST GAME I'VE EVER SEEN! Expand

    Desde el prólogo hasta el desenlace mantiene una mezcla de tensión con dramatismo único de esta la industria, es una obra de arte en toda la extensión de la palabra y un gran logro técnico.

    Naughty Dog ha sabido superarse con cada entrega, ya sea en Uncharted o en The Last Of US.

    Un gran exclusivo de PlayStation que sin duda debes experimentar por tu cuenta.

    The game is absolutely beautiful and the gameplay is actually fun and enjoyable but the story I could not get into it I felt no sympathy for the new characters and I felt like this was being forced on me.With a game so based on story the story not being good is not acceptable.

    I know this page is being review bombed but I still wanted to leave my thoughts on this game. The Last of Us part 2 is a masterclass in gameplay, world building, level design, animations and graphical fidelity on a PS4 from 2014, and of course story telling.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game does not deserve a 0/10 rating but it's definitely not a 10/10 Masterpiece either. The gameplay is quite cinematic and fluid , but doesn't do enough to distinguish itself from the revered first entry it's absolutely a 7/10 for me , the story is where this game falls apart characters from the first game make some questionable decisions not resembling their previous choices and the new characters the game introduces aren't memorable or well developed enough to have an impact , also the plot is needlessly bleak and let me tell you this is not an easy game to play , its downright harrowing at times and that goes for the ending too which is bleak for it's own sake nor there's any feeling of contentment and not to serve the story in any meaningful way , it has to be a 5/10 for me and for a series that was revered for its amazing story that's a disappointment,.The first game is my favorite game of all time and I'm sad to see this is where they took they took the story Expand

    Does this game try push a political agenda? No. This game tells a story about humans, and just because a character says or does something you don't agree with, that doesn't make it "unbelievable" or "political". Naughty Dog knows these characters better than any of us, and they are telling the story they want to. Just because we don't agree with something, it doesn't make the game bad.Does this game try push a political agenda?

Naughty Dog knows these characters better than any of us, and they are telling the story they want to. Just because we don't agree with something, it doesn't make the game bad. We're meant to disagree with choices they make, because believe it or not, these characters are flawed humans, just like the rest of us (yeah, I'm looking at you guys giving this game a 0 without even picking it up). I definitely didn't always agree with the direction the story took, or the decisions the characters made, but that's the beauty of it.. I'm not supposed to. It's not my story. It's Naughty Dogs, and man is it brutal, dark, and miserable. But again, that's the point. I'm just thankful they're not afraid to tell it the way they wanted it. As for the gameplay, I don't have much to say. Yeah it's more or less the same, but refined with an added layer. It worked the first time, and it's even better here. As for the environments, Naughty Dog has outdone themselves. The attention to detail is crazy. To think a designer spent weeks perfecting a room that I rushed through in 4 seconds blows my mind. The game does a good job making the environments open enough giving you multiple paths to an objective without the need for objective marker or a mini-map. I never felt lost, but at the same time I never knew exactly how I was supposed to get somewhere. Naughty Dog really found the perfect balance of making the game feel open without making it an open world game.

    I finished the game resonating with characters I originally hated, and hating characters I thought I loved, overall feeling like ****. It's a miserable story with the mechanics, environments, and acting to back it up. The game is a masterpiece. If you loved the first game and want to see how Naughty Dogs develops and punishes these characters for the choices they've made, play this now, before someone spoils it for you.

    I’m convinced the writers of the first game have mysteriously disappeared. I refuse to believe The Last of Us 2 is made from the same people that made the original. That’s how bad this is. The story (which was the best thing about the original) makes the game unplayable in the sequel. Couldn’t be more unsatisfied.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. People just hate on it because Joel dies and you must play as Abby. Even though i didn't like to play as her, Joel's death is not bad written, it's a cruel world, he is actually a bad person and this game gave him not plot armor. He actually got what he deserved, even if you like it or not. Don't get me wrong, it did hurt me a lot to watch him die like that, but I don't hink it was bad writing. Even if you don't empathize with Abby, the goal is not to make you feel sorry for her, but to understand her reasons. What Naughty Dogs did was kinda like playing with fire, and they kinda burnt themselves, but at the end I think they made one of the most memorable games ever. Expand

People on here saying it’s just a bad revenge story don’t get it, it shows the complexities of revenge and the different sides so beautifully. i havent cried so hard at an ending in anything ever really. i also start sobbing whenever i hear “if i ever were to lose you”. please play and decide for yourself instead of letting these reviews get you down. an absolute masterpiece.

    Perfection. Seriously. Anyone who criticizes the story is someone who needs a happy ending with rainbows and unicorns and has no reason to be playing this game. You will not be happy by the end of the game, I promise you, but that is the beauty of this. ND doesn't want to treat you like a child, so don't expect that. Go play animal crossing.

    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.
