    It's an okay game the game play, graphics etc are good but the story is just straight up awful. You will be disappointed if you played the last of us 1 before.

    The Last of Us 2 is a technical marvel. Smooth controls, many ways to dispatch your enemies and gorgeous settings. I really like the huge boss fight under the hospital. Best fight in the series. I do agree that the story was lacking in clarity. I think the sequences should have been placed differently to provide more background to the story in smoother transitions. -1 for that.

    Everything is great except the story and the hidden agenda. The enemy A.I, environment, graphic, combats, crafting, are great but the story and woke political hidden agendas ruined it.

    It's okay to be uncomfortable with different situations and storylines, but if you can get past your preconceived notions of characters, i think you will see a very deep and emotional story that makes you think.


    Also, I must note that the story length is fantastic. You get plenty of game time for the price you pay.    … Expand

Now for my rant. **** these dumb ass losers who are so whining about a supposed “SJW” narrative that in no way is present. I think if anything Neil ****ed up by portraying a strong woman as a man and should get backlash by women instead of these **** ass dudes that are so but hurt because they couldn’t play as Joel? Get the **** over it!!! Loss is a part of life, and it’s the reason the journey even happens. Play the game don’t listen to these morons. You will get frustrated with the story at times but there’s a methid to the madness and you’ll be pleasantly surprised if you play to the end. Happy gaming!!… Expand

They didn't play an integral role for the characters, the same way "being gay" or similar shouldn't be a single defining trait of a real person. In part 2, however, just about everyone is part of some alternative group, be it LGBT or a minority group. There's nothing wrong with being part of these groups, it's simply so overstated and extreme that it makes no sense. And this is ignoring the otherwise jumbled mess of a story with way too many characters that nobody cares about and overall messy story. It just seems to me that Naughty Dog chose to ignore everything the fans love about their games to fit an agenda. Therefore I am giving this a 0/10 in hopes of the score ending up low enough that Naughty Dog decides to redo the game in a way that the fans would like. There is also a petition on Change going on right now, so if you too wanna see change then go ahead and sign that.… Expand

    If you're looking for a cliché or fan-service or you're just clinging to the nostalgia of part one, you'll probably won't like it. But if you're looking for a high quality, brave and unique drama with breathtaking moments, insane details and a roller-coaster of emotions this is what you're looking for.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Thanks for the great work you have done.

    Tonight I played TLOU2... exciting game! I think the rating on Metacritic and other sites is not high 'cause real game does not meet expectation of the part of gamers. Here is detailed thoughts about it...
    There are literary works that must be read, such as «Philosophy in the Boudoir» by Marquis de Sade. It instantly catches the attention of a lay reader with the pornographic scenes. That means that most of the readers can't see any background philosophy in this masterpiece. If you are an experienced reader - you know that all the pornographic scenes just should be faded and focus goes on the dialogues between them.
    This principle also works for TLOU2... atmosphere, entourage, gameplay and sexual orientation of heroes are not the target TLOU2. There should be a main question: what is it all about? In my opinion it is about different things with similar ways. Overcoming internal contradictions that goes against the nature of the main characters unites them.
    There are 2 heroines ... Abby was obsessed with revenge and had killed person who was close to Ellie. Abby had a deep hope that after the act of revenge she would feel peace in her soul ... but this never happened. After the murder of Joel, Ellie becomes obsessed with revenge. We observe how does she follow the same way (actually). Conventional wisdom slowly prevails ... and now Abby realizes that the endless series of revenges and deaths must be interrupted, that is why she lets go of Dina and Ellie. Ellie stays «one step behind» with problem understanding. Her desire to take revenge still did not go completely. Finally, she also finds the internal strength to stop killing. In last scenes, both heroines are devastated and crippled in their souls. Heroines disappear ... and obviously they will seek for the strength inside themselves to live.

    What will TLOU3 looks like (sooner or later it will definitely come out)... I see 4 ways for Ellie:
    1) She will live the hermit life (but you can’t create a game with it);
    2) In the last scene, our attention is focused on the «Cicad» symbol. Perhaps now Ellie (who is now left alone) sees her mission in finding them and sacrificing herself for the salvation of humanity for the second time;
    3) A pregnant girl in a gas mask was depicted on the TLOU poster in Uncharted 4. Perhaps it was Ellie ... in this case, the child can make sense of her life, especially since in the game we saw how her attitude towards children changes: at first they annoy her (her and Dina’s dialogue at the very beginning in front of the stage snowball games) and then, she quite joyfully plays with Dina’s child, so that anything can happen;
    4) She will meet again with Abby and «the two loneliness will find each other» (but this, in my opinion, is too primitive).

    Now about the opinions of other people ...
    Many playlists say that the actions of the main characters are not logical ... so the actions of any person who is blinded by revenge lie outside standard logic.
    As for the dull and monotonous gameplay - I agree. But in my opinion, developers have an excuse: no one has ever made games with such a multi-level narrative design. Moreover, I believe that what Drakhman conceived cannot be fully embodied in the game. It's like with a puppet theater: can a doll play all the roles? Akella from Mowgli - yes, because it's just only image. But can marionette play the role of the White Fang by Jack London? No ... because White Fang is a character. Conceived by Drakman is not suitable for the game. Only a book can perform such a depth of design.

    My opinion: the game deserves a rating of 8/10.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let's not overly stretch this review. The last of us part II is a MASTERPIECE. Not a rare but a UNIQUE gem in the gaming industry.
    VISUALS/GRAPHICS: 9.8/10
    The visuals, and the overall technical realisation of the game is nearly perfect, except for the fire visuals and effects that are clearly limited by this console's generation's problems. There are some little glitches all over the game but they are almost meaningless.
    GAMEPLAY/ANIMATIONS: 9.8/10
    The gameplay is renewed and restyled but clearly inspired by the first chapter's fundamentals. It betters every single aspect of it and adds new mechanics that keep the game's overall style. The playable maps are enormous and almost completely explorable, filled with curiosities, touching and heartbreaking side stories and collectibles so detailed only Naughty Dog could bless us with. The combat sequences are extremely satisfying, flexible and realistic, as you can reestablish a stealthy profile by running into the grass and keeping a prone position. The A.I., especially the humans enemies' sets new standards for the whole industry, enemies can flank you, easily overwhelm you and engage a hard melee fight with you. They all have names and they can get angrier if you kill their friends or their dogs, the new type of enemy, extremely sensible to every noise and smell. Killing enemies in The last of us part II is not an easy decision. Enemies will scream painfully or angrily, dogs will mourn their owners and whimper if hit. The infected enemies are of course less intelligent than humans but overall more dangerous and renewed. Runners are now more aggressive and overwhelming, stalkers are terrifying and extremely deadly when it comes to a close combat with them. Clickers can easily spot any noise you produce and quickly kill your character. The new shamblers are extremely dangerous as they are die hard, violent monsters that are able to eject burning spores that can sometimes trap you in a corner, hopeless. The bloaters are way more difficult and violent in this game and will cause you a lot of problems. The new Rat King is surely the most challenging boss fight of the whole series THEIR huge bloater body eject some sort of stalkers also stronger and more dangerous. Furthermore the two characters have different weapons and abilities that can be used and improved. I noticed the falling animation was a little less taken care of, almost unsatisfying.
    STORY MODE AND PLOT: 9.5/10
    The story mode is devastating, moving and grounded. The plot twists are incredibly well played and empowered by the incredible acting of the characters' mo-cap actors. Joel's death is the consequence of his actions. Because nobody is a 'good guy' in the universe of The last of us, as Tess reminded Joel in the first game before her death,-We're sh*tty people Joel-. Abby had the complicated burden of justifying her terrible actions throughout the game and she partially did. Naughty Dog make us live her human relationship with the characters we previously saw involved in a terrible action of revenge. And more, not only is Abby Joel's killer, but we find out she is way more similar to him than she and we know. She is more brutal than Ellie, like Joel, and with her action she provoked an unstoppable intercourse of events that brought her down, just like Joel. Just like Joel she finds herself with a human relationship with the boy Lev. But we never forget our true reasons and Ellie, the actual protagonist of the game is focused on her goal. She eventually understands that killing Abby won't bring back Joel and in a touching final scene she lets her enemy go, with the boy she previously saved. Abby lost everything she loved because of her lust for revenge and Ellie proves to be a better human being than her. She then realizes how her revenge obsession brought away the good things she had left. Dina and her son, her mother's knife, the guitar fingers.
    SOUNDTRACK: 9.5/10
    The soundtrack is easily on an upper level and Gustavo Santaolalla demonstrates his talent with tracks that can make your emotions already simulated by the cutscenes even more intense, even though I feel like the first game's songs are slightly more inspired.
    IMPERFECTIONS SUMMARIZED:
    Nothing is perfect, and The last of us makes no exception. Some parts of the plot seem to be stretching the game a little bit, for example the still beautiful but slightly unnecessary gameplay sequence during the war between the WLF militia and the Seraphites cult. Some animations are still a bit rough, like the falling animation that can be revisited and there are some little graphic glitches, some textures disappearing when you're looking at them in certain spots, the fire effects and visuals seem a bit 'old', though these little problems don't ruin the experience.
    As I said, nothing is perfect, neither is The last of us part II, but let me state it goes pretty damn close to perfection.
    A must have, generation defining game. Incredible. 10/10    … Expand

    As beautiful a canvas as you could ever want. Still love the gameplay and mechanics. It's just a flawed, headscratching story with flat and poorly developed characters. The characters we knew and loved are abused and worse by Naughty Dog and the fans are slapped in the face repeatedly. The first game was a lot to live up to and, well: "they made a sequel; it wasn't as good."

La historia está perfectamente narrada, pero repito, la gente no tiene la capacidad suficiente para dejar el fanatismo de Ellie a un lado y aceptar que teniendo el punto de vista de ambas, ninguna de las dos es la buena ni la mala.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well, I am no professional game journalist, or even a good writer, and this is my first ever serious review of a game. I hope you all will understand what I mean, and why I gave this game such a low rating. English isn`t even my native language, but after seeing how this game turned out, I can`t be silent.

    This game made me so angry by killing of Joel in such a dumb manner. He was an experienced survivor, with over 20 years of experience. I loved the previous game for how they portrayed the characters, seeing them have fun, living together, and surviving together. This game misses the important part too why (at least for me) the previous game had such good storytelling. When i started to play this game I was hoping for another Joel and Ellie game, were you would change between playing as them, and possibly other side characters like Tommy, but what I got was 10 hours of gameplay were i was forced to play as a character that i hated because of her actions. I sat patiently, and inn excitement to finally after all these years to play as Joel, but only 2 hours into the game he dies, and I feel no sympathy for the antagonist for killing him, even after hearing her reason to doing so. Inn my mind this was purely done for "shock factor" and not for any other reason then this. I myself didn`t see, or read any spoilers of this game, and my heart broke seeing Joel die such an unsatisfying death, only leaving a sour taste inn my mouth.

    On another note. The gameplay/game mechanics has gotten a huge upgrade since part 1, and the visuals also look astonishing. I hope that future games will also look as pretty as this game.

    The only reason I don`t give this game a 0, or 1 is because of the gameplay, and the visuals.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Gameplay wise and graphics it's certainly awesome, even more so than TLOU...

    The story though... it's just dumb and doesn't really make a lot of sense, mostly because the characters you knew don't behave in the same way they did, they just feel like different people.

    Also, forcing you to play as the murderer of your beloved main character for practically half the game didn't really do anything for me (nor the story with her entire entourage).

    I mean, it's like after shooting Bambi's mother you do half the film about the hardships the hunter went through in his life up to that moment and pretty much implying it was justified.

    Some people like to say this game is getting negative reviews because of LGBT hate against Ellie (which i think is a dumb point, Left Behind got great user reviews while depicting Ellie as a lesbian) or Abby's sex scene... srsly? people waited 7 years for this game and they are just gonna trash it because there is a 30 second sex scene they don't like?

    If people think that's more likely than the story just being overall poor (and i would say even BAD for what was expected of ND and TLOU)... well i guess adding an LGBT/Sexist element to any story makes it invulnerable to critic: if you don't like it, you are a bigot, even if you liked the previous iteration which also was pro-LGBT and many other games with female leads.    … Expand

Cumple con su objetivo de hacerte sentir mal a lo largo de todo el juego y además te hace ponerte en el lugar del supuesto antagonista q al final no es tan mala. Si dejáis de lloriquear por no querer ver su historia y os fijáis en los hechos os daréis cuenta e incluso os gustará el personaje. Y si, aunq nos guste tanto Joel por lo q representa y Ellie de igual forma, no son buenas oersonas y en parte Joel pago por lo q hizo y es por esto q Ellie no mata a Abby al final del juego porq perdona a Joel y a su vez comprende q obtuvo su merecido aunq no nos gustara. Es una obra de arte pero necesita q se comprenda la historia desde una cierta madurez q algunos no presentáis.… Expand

    The last of us 2 shouldn't meet our expectation regarding story, main characters and message. However it should entertain. And that's the main issue - it's super boring.

    After 7 years we were waiting for a worthy sequel to the masterpiece that was The last of us and what they give us is one of the worst games possible, the characters were bland and unlikeable most of the time the interactions seemed forced and cringeworthy.
    They kill Joel at the beginning of the game, how can you kill such a beloved character like that?? the Joel Allie dynamic was what made the game so great to begin with, and on top of that, we're forced to play 10h as the character who killed him? by the way, shes's one of the worst characters in videogame history not to talk about the sex scene no one wanted to see...
    The game visuals are stunning but it couldn't make up to all the flaws not even close.
    Overall, one of the worst games ever made and it'll be hard to make a worst one.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don’t know what to think about this game. The gameplay is comprised of tense stealth segments and brutal shooting and melee combat. The stealth is still as tense and nerve-wracking as it is in the first game and there are minimal changes to combat besides some improved gore, animations and a dodge button.
    The guns still feel clunky and hard to aim, the controls still trapped in 2013, whereas the combat feels realistic and as brutal as the developers intended, giving perfect feedback to the weight of the weapons and force of the hits through vibrations in the DualShock controller. Human enemies cry out the names of their fallen companions and the dying cries of the people you mercilessly slaughter make you question why you’re killing them. The gameplay is essentially the same, for better or for worse, with some minor tweaks and improvements. I personally think it works perfectly to create intense action set-pieces (like the car chase or the melee fights with the beefy seraphites) and highly tense stealth segments.

    The environments are absolutely stunning, with nature engulfing the urban landscapes even more so than in the first game. The contrast of the grey buildings of Seattle and the green foliage and the harsh sounds of the rushing rivers creates a post-apocalyptic setting unlike any other. The lighting is phenomenal, with rays shining through windows and reflecting off of surfaces in realistic ways. All of this makes for a fantastic world that feels amazing to explore for the game’s 25 hour run time. The story however, feels confused and is riddled with plot-holes and inconsistencies. The story follows Ellie on a revenge plot, after Joel is murdered in front of her by Abby ( another playable character). The first 10 or so hours of the story were enjoyable, well paced and concise including new companion characters who I believe to have depth and be believable. Ellie however, does not respond to situations as she did in the first game. While this could be representative of the grief Ellie feels controlling and twisting her choices and decision making, I feel as though she makes incredibly poor choices that had me sighing or even laughing at times. At what seems to be climax of Ellie’s story, the player is given control of Abby for around 10 hours. This idea seems interesting and nuanced but feels far too long and somewhat frustrating as it cuts off Ellie’s story abruptly. Abby’s story attempts to create guilt in the player, showing that everyone suffers loss and grief in the cruel world of The Last of Us. While this story is rather effective at humanising the antagonist of Ellie’s campaign, showing the reason she killed Joel and her compassion for others, it feels misplaced and ill-paced. Perhaps if it was incorporated earlier or split into smaller gameplay segments it would help the stale flow that the middle part of the story suffers from. The ending of the story is not one I expected, but one I feel is nuanced and unique. It challenges what the player would expect from an ending in a story like this, challenging the morality of every decision Ellie (and the player) has made and how warped her intentions have become due to grief. While many players will feel frustrated or dissatisfied by the ending, I feel as though it provokes an interesting thought process. While the gameplay is perfectly brutal with intense gore and fantastic animations, the story feels muddled, deconstructing characters we loved from the first game and including an overly long segment following characters the player will most probably hate, yet it does have some shining moments of genuinely great story telling and narrative. While it’s certainly not for everyone, I’m sure many people will thoroughly enjoy this game. My recommendation is to play the first game, the left behind dlc and only play the sequel if you adore the gameplay of the first game enough to redeem the clumsy plot.    … Expand

    Más allá de la pelotudes yankee de “lo arruinaron al hacerla lesbiana a Ellie”, el juego es malo por otras muchas razones. Primero lo primero: los PROS. La música es lo mejor del juego. Las conexiones entre los personajes a través de la música. El sistema de guitarra es de lo mejor que he visto en PS, y aledaños. Los gráficos también son excelentes. Digno de la nueva generación de consolas. Listo, nada más para alabar.

    La historia, mamita querida! Un sinsentido tras otro. Después de 10 horas de juego, te cambian a jugar con un personaje que no conocés, y que no podría importarte menos si se muere mañana. Para colmo es la asesina de Joel. Sí, justificado, sí. Pero apurado. Toda la historia está apurada. Podrían haberse tomado más tiempo para hacerla mejor. Pero no. Los mismos enemigos de siempre. Las mismas armas. Los mismos movimientos. Todo igual. Un final pésimo, y la sensación de que algo le faltó. Ojalá y no haya sido el cierre de la saga, pero la verdad que no hay mucho más para ahondar ennun universo que se ha quedado sin Joel, y que ahora alberga a una Ellie vengativa, estúpida, y carente de todo sentido de lógica y razón.

The experience of this game did not leave me satisfied. When you come to the conclusion of the game and you immediately know that you don’t want to go through this experience again it is a failed game that fails in the very thing it is supposed to be, a game. It fails at being a game that costs as much as it does because you will never get the value that you paid out of this game. This experience did not justify its existence for me. Too harsh?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I believe that the game is not bad. Personally, I liked it.
    But! But there are some issues that I put 7/10 on.
    (1) JOEL'S DEATH. Yes, it is terrible and because of this already disappears some desire to play. I don't mind such a strong plot twist. BUT... but not at the beginning of the game! In the end, it would be better or better in the middle of the game, so that the emotions are stronger bursting. Well, also because of his death, there is a lack of a charismatic companion, because Dina is no good as a companion.
    (2) the PLOT. There are a few quibbles at this point:
    1) Trusting Joel and Tommy to strangers (Abby's company).
    2) The final game. Ellie was killing everyone in her path to kill Abby, and she stopped at the last moment. Of course, it could be put down to her comparing herself and Joel to Abby and the Lion. But **** This is such nonsense.
    3) the Storyline behind Abby. Yes, this is an interesting move to tell the motivation of the enemy. BUT it was so boring to play for her. But in places it was really interesting to watch. But other than that, it was boring, and honestly, I didn't give a **** Since I was more interested in watching Ellie's story. We would have done two hours of gameplay for it and everything is OK.
    (3) LGBT. I have nothing against LGBT people. As if who wants who and... Well, you understand. But the game is really too much with this theme. Sometimes there are moments where it was possible not to insert. And with friends noticed that the game has a lot of enemies NPC women.
    Well, the graphics and development in the game are great. I liked that we added the ability to crawl and jump over obstacles. I also liked the weapons in the game.
    Well, in the end, I liked the game, I got a lot of emotions from it, which made my mouth open in shock, and I can even say that I got a lot of sad emotions from the game, too. Especially after the final game, I couldn't sleep for two hours after that. But TLOU 1 will still be better.

    Then it all comes crashing down on the bad implementation of the story. The story feels like the first draft of a college english paper that was composed of several high school english papers on the same subject. It lacks an iota of consideration for consistency of character or narrative development. This series is a narrative focused single player experience, and will be judged critically on that story. Years from now, the only reason I will even remember this game exists is because of how disappointed I am in the game and the studio. The characters are inconsistent, underdeveloped, and do not act like sane human beings. You have a single thread throughout the story of how "an eye for an eye makes the world blind" but you never feel satisfied by the plot developments or the ridiculous need to pile plot threads that never build to a single satisfying conclusion. I bought the game to know exactly why there was so much hate for the game.

    Play it, you wont regret it.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. despite what happened to Joel in the start of the game and it was not a great choice by naughty dog to kill Joel at very start of the game but the story is a MasterPeace.
    maybe this is the saddest game of all time, that push you to the darkest personality you have ever seen.
    the game will show you what revenge really is and what is mean when you get revenge like Abby or not and let it go like Ellie.
    but other than the story, the game play, graphic and... all of that is absolutely magical.
    and at the end i just want to say this is maybe one the best game you can ever play.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm not at all surprised to see the ridiculous and unwarranted backlash The Last of Us Part II has received after a very long and unsustainable hype campaign. For some inexplicable reason, when it comes to evaluating story, or a video game, many unapologetically hold the unreasonable belief that their petty expectations are somehow gospel - every whim must be satisfied, every desire fulfilled. In fact, these petulant masses have grown so demanding and vociferously critical of change that genuinely valid criticism of the game has been almost completely eclipsed by an embarrassing number of immature/undeveloped/sexist/homophobic/transphobic remarks and sentiments. In this regard they begin to resemble the single-minded and intolerant Seraphites of the actual game who are themselves, morally backwards and terrified of change. They're also very fun to shoot at.

    Ultimately, The Last of Us Part II is not the crowdpleasing sequel certain "fans" expected it to be and for that it has been undeservedly jeered at and spat upon by legions of deluded and entitled people, spouting trolling comments on Twitch streams and Youtube reviews. What none of these people take into account, however, is that (from both a gameplay and storytelling perspective) TLOU2 succeeds in almost every way at delivering a fresh and engrossing survival horror video game about revenge and forgiveness. Above all, the game is committed to taking the player firmly out of their comfort zone (something any good survival horror game should always strive to do); indeed, nothing in this game feels safe, not even (ingenuously) the weapons upgrade menu. A running theme in TLOU2 is the cruel, but absolutely necessary, endangering of what we (and Ellie) take for granted - be it an upgrade menu, the morality of our in-game actions, or Joel Miller himself. As is clear to anyone paying attention, many scathing reviews of this game seem invariably and inescapably concentrated on a particularly traumatising and brutal event in the story's opening hours and it is not altogether impossible to see why. For a considerable period of playtime, my rage and Ellie's rage were one, I was genuinely consumed with hatred (the kind that motivates you to commit virtual suicide over and over again when you are suddenly and unexpectedly forced to play as a character you have grown to despise for what, at first, seems like an inconceivable and inappropriate length of time). But the jarring unpleasantness of Abby's questline is part of the experience; it's not supposed to win the player over at the very beginning. Like any conflict, a more nuanced and balanced understanding of the opposing positions takes time to develop - it takes hours and hours of reflection and contemplation (something Ellie herself achieves at a slower rate than the actual player). Over time, a general disconnect is imposed between us and Ellie - after seeing Abby's capacity for committing selfless deeds and protecting the innocent, we can no longer hold onto that rage which infected us so violently at the beginning of the game. This, of course, does not excuse Abby's actions, but the whole ordeal poses a very pertinent dilemma to the player. Both Ellie and Abby (not to mention Joel) are undoubtedly guilty of having done terrible things but is it not impossible for someone to commit terrible deeds and nonetheless remain a good person? Or are Abby and Ellie beyond the possibility of redemption?

    For certain, TLOU2's skewed morality is a dilemma reinforced in subtle (and not so subtle) ways throughout the game - if it's not the tribal warfare raging across Seattle (itself a conflict obsessively and circuitously preoccupied with who started what and with endless justifications for increasingly violent and extreme acts of retaliation) then it's the tongue-in-cheek trading card collectibles scattered throughout the world which perform the relatable, adolescent urge to "grade" fictional characters on a moral spectrum from "Villain" to "Hero" with even the possibility to include "Neutral" heroes and villains. Where do we place ourselves on such a scale? Especially after we realise we have widowed and orphaned countless members of the WLF?

    The most valid criticism of this game, I feel, is its chronologically chaotic approach to pacing. It's almost conspiratorial to think about how similar Ellie's character model has been taken to resemble Ellen Page when the narrative order of TLOU2 appears to take its cues from Beyond: Two Souls, a title in which Page played the leading role (complete with morally grey dilemmas and sad, wistful acoustic guitar performances). While many are upset with the decision to have Joel savagely beaten to death within the game's opening hours, I can think of no better way to inject this level of raw, emotional conflict and narrative urgency into what could have been a fairly predictable sequel. TLOU2 is more than just a pretty face. There is real depth here to explore.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. El juego es muy bueno, sus mecánicas, su jugabilidad, son prácticamente perfectas. Para mi gusto la historia es buenísima, muy profunda, y oscura. Abby no entiendo porque es un personaje odiado, ya que tiene las mismas razones. Cuando mató a Joel, a Jesse, casi a Tommy, y con la intención también con Dina, yo quería que muriese, que sufriera, pero luego ves, que antes de que mate a Jesse, y demás, Abby solo había matado a Joel, cuando Ellie había matado a: Owen, Mel, y gente con la que tiene mucha relación.
    En conclusión, una obra maestra, la historia, inferior a la del primer título, pero unido con las mismas mecánicas del primer título pero mejoradas, y con algunas características nuevas, en mi opinión, uno de los mejores títulos de esta generación.    … Expand

    The combat is brutal and satisfying, the environments beautiful yet haunting and the score is masterfully crafted, but the greatest achievement of TLoU2 is its harrowing story of loss and revenge. This game easily lives up to its 2013 predecessor and may even be the greatest game of the PlayStation console to date. A 10/10 masterpiece.

    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]
