    This is Amazing experience and no it's not a game u want to play to relax or have fun with.
    But if u just wanted to play more of Ellie and Joel go play the last of us remastered.
    It is it's own game and is one of the best interactive media of the generation

    Ignore the idiots review bombing this game. It’s fantastic, if you enjoyed the first game then you will have the time of your life. Everything you enjoyed before has been improved, and guess what...proper fans knew Ellie was gay anyway, and guess what, proper human beings don’t care anyway!

    The Last of Us is my favorite game of all time. I have played it numerous times, cried every time, and just kept wanting to go back and play. I was eagerly awaiting for The Last of Us 2 for years, and to finally hear it was coming out this year, I was ecstatic.

I have played it numerous times, cried every time, and just kept wanting to go back and play. I was eagerly awaiting for The Last of Us 2 for years, and to finally hear it was coming out this year, I was ecstatic.

    The wait was well worth it. The game mechanics are just like the first game with some additions to it. The story is phenomenal and gets you invested in it early on. The story is scary, frustrating, happy, exciting, and depressing. You'll feel all sorts of emotions through this game and that's exactly what Naughty Dog wanted, for you to feel the pain of the protagonist. They wanted you to want revenge, to be angry, and the reviews reflect that. They want you to see the grey in things, that not everything is black and white. The decisions made by characters in this game and real decisions any of us can make if pushed to the breaking point of loss and sadness. They made some BOLD moves in the story and I think they're excellent. I cried, it was hard to see this story play out.

    The Last of Us 2 is now my favorite game of all time. I'm now on my third play through and I plan to keep going. The world is huge, the story is long, and there's lots to see along the way. Get this game and be ready to feel all sorts of emotions. It's worth it.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Like most when I heard about the leaks I was disappointed, but I decided to keep a open mind and purchase the game.Controls take time to get used to, and the pacing is a bit slow at times but the game is well worth playing.
    In my playthrough a question popped in my head-WHAT IS THE PRICE OF VENGEANCE, AND ARE YOU WILLING TO PAY.I’ll start with Abby’s vengeance. In her pursuit of Joel she is faced many times with Owen attempting to build a relationship with Abby, each time Abby turns it down and continues with her “Leads” even though it is clear they still like each other. Eventually this leads to Owen dating Mel and getting her pregnant. Later in a cutscene, Abby and Owen have sex(keep in mind Owen is still with Mel) it was a long time coming. After the affair Owen wants Abby to travel with Mel and him, Owen says he’ll try to make it work, in his love triangle. Mel later reveals to Abby that, she never liked her(probably saw and Abby and Owen close still) Later Abby aids in finding Lev, Owen tried to join Abby, Mel strongly disagrees. Abby knows at this point, that the time for her and Owen has passed. She tells Owen to stay and get his priorities in line, ending any further involvement.
    Abby lost her chance to grow a relationship with the only other person that she cared for. As well as losing her friends. And she also has a change of heart and befriends two seraphites, which leads her to kill her comrades(WLF)

    Ellie’s vengeance leads to her being mentally and visibly shaken by her actions after getting Nora to “talk”. Later she shoots Owen and stabs Mel in the neck, in Owens last moments he informs Ellie that Mel was pregnant. This disturbs Ellie leading to her getting on her knees, breathe heavily, and wrap her arms around her stomach(throw up?pain?) she is snapped out of it by Tommy and is taken back to base, only problem is Ellie left her map, leading Abby to find her. We cut to the future(after Abby beats Ellie and Dina), Ellie is on a farm with Dina and, Dina’s child JJ, just like Dina wanted. Ellie walks around the house with JJ and has a good time, eventually she has to herd the sheep into the barn. While herding you hear winds picking up. Ellie locks the small door that holds sheep, only to find a lamb out. She approaches the lamb resulting in the lamb knocking over a shovel, which triggers Ellie.a flash of Joel’s dying face appears and attempts to get the lamb only for the door to close. You play in a small room with stairs that lead down, she hears Joel calling Ellie for help, Ellie reaches the door but it is locked, she can’t open it and starts yelling. It cuts to reality and Ellie is screaming and the baby is crying(Ellie had JJ in a sling) Dina tried to comfort Ellie. Tommy shows up(you find out he lived) with only one eye and his leg doesn’t work like before(from Abby and Lev) he reveals him and Maria are taking time apart. He came to inform Ellie that a informant saw a muscular woman traveling with a boy with scars in his face. He tried to get Ellie on board. Dina tells Tommy, that they are done with that, Ellie tells Tommy she is sorry. Tommy packs his bag, and tells Ellie,”you said you’d make her pay” angry he leaves and Dina has “parting words” with him. Ellie eventually decides she has to finish it, Dina tries to stop Ellie from leaving, telling her she has a family and that she won’t go through it again. Ellie leaves. Skipping ahead Ellie finds Abby and they fight(real gritty) Elle gains the upper hand, and starts to drown Abby while chilling music plays, the camera pans to Ellie’s face. Bloody and in tears she has a memory of Joel, and decides to let Abby live. She definitely had a revelation, but it’s open to interpretation.

    Ellie returns to the farm to find Dina has left and the house is empty and cold, in contrast to before, it was colorful and warm. She goes up stairs to play guitar, she plays the song Joel sang to her,”if I ever were to lose you, I’d surely lose my self” this hit me, she lost Joel, and lost her self figuratively and literally as she lost her left ring and pinky fingers, leaving her unable to play the guitar properly. Alone and changed, she has a look on her face I can’t describe(see model viewer “Ellie-epilogue”)

    Ellie’s price was her mental state as seen after her encounter with Nora, Owen and Mel, Jessie dying, Tommy losing a eye and ability to walk properly, as well as him and his wife taking a “break”, Ellie’s ability to play guitar, last but not least- Dina leaving.

    It is a different game with a tragic ending, one that is welcome in a market of happily ever afters and fears of telling a story like it due to backlash(like right now)

    I came in with a bit of disappointment but kept a open mind, and left with a amazing experience.Is the price of vengeance worth it? Are you willing to pay? For it not only impacts you, but also others.

Sloppy story it was alright to me to kill Joel off if you were going to justify it for the rest of the game..... not play as the character they made you hate from the get go. They tried to get you to see both sides but the way they killed Joel and the boring back and forth missions felt monotonous most of the time. They lied to us fans about Joel and who on earth wanted to be Abby and beat the crap out of Ellie....... Crickets that sums up the game to be honest… Expand

    The game makes some upsetting choices but in doing so not only tells a compelling story but stays true to the world and characters without giving in to fanservice. The gameplay, graphics, audio design, AI, score, acting, writing, and everything else are setting a new bar for games. Bravo, Naughty Dog!

If people weren't mad about it, Noughty Dog would have done something incredibly wrong. They wanted us to feel angry, and they nailed it. They actually achieved their goal.

    Of course people don't have to like it, and maybe a lot of people expected a different kind of story, but giving a game 0 points without playing the game is just childishness in my opinion. And I don't want to talk about these LGBT accusations at all. This is just too rediculous.

    And yes, I played the game all the way through, unlike many others here.

The final scene was quite sad, but not every ending is happy, it's just like real life. People claiming that games are not supposed to be about politics are frustrated because this game has so much representation and they can't accept that different people are represented. There is a black man who is a leader, a lesbian woman (Ellie), a bisexual woman, a trans boy, asian people, people with disabilities... I mean, the game represents life as it is. And yes, it's political. To represent marginalized people in games is a political act and one that hopes to make gamers a little more empathetic. By the way, empathy is key to understand characters' decisions and motivations. It's a game for a MATURE audience.

    Negatives:
    - storyline - bland characters
    - boss fights are lame

    Joel dying isn’t the problem; the situation he put himself in is out of his character. It took an entire game, traveling across country for Joel to grow to trust Ellie. Hell he even instilled this into Ellie; always be cautious of others. There were many instances we saw in the first one where we saw in the world of “The last of us” people are out for themselves and will kill you without hesitation. So I’m suppose to believe that Joel would just put himself in a situation with complete strangers to not only tell them where there town is, but get trapped by a bunch of strangers? It’s very clear to me theyre shoving an agenda down your throat. The characters were awful; there wasn’t much development. Ellie was fine but ruining the story the way they made it difficult to enjoy. And Naughty Dog hiring a company to copyright strike youtubers was just shady. And that ending; probably the worst part about the game. I’m just going to pretend this is some fan fiction.    … Expand

    i feel a lot of the criticism seems to be very general and unfounded. i was disappointed to see review bombs at release. i personally loved the game, especially the story. Naughty Dog did a great job making the story larger than just Ellie and Joel, and showed that there are consequences to their actions.

Так же геймплей за Ебби нужен был, что бы показать другую сторону медали. Мы сочувствуем Елли, так как привязались к ней еще со времен 1 части и игра за Ебби нам дает прочуствовать ее мотивацию. О графике и детализации говорить не стоит, так как это Ноути Дог, а как мы знаем : проработка деталей у них на высоте.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The first Last of Us was an amazing with a great ending giving hints of a second game in the future. With that finally coming I was finally able to complete the game with my thoughts and mixed feels of the game. With many people talking about many characters deaths going quick and how the should have gone a different way is some what understandable. But also people playing the game and giving it negative feedback I think in too be more open minded about how they were killed. Joel being beat to death by a Abby with her wanting revenge for Joel killing her father in order to save Ellie.With Ellie seeing how Joel died made her wanting her revenge as well. With the way the story goes in my opinion is showing the Ellie is being coming more of a monster then Abby. Which is one of the reasons we play as both characters. With both Ellie and Abby coming together in the moment that cause everything to happen we see that Abby keeps herself from killing Dina being pregnant with Lev's help. With then next chapter coming too the farm house it shows the Ellie fells as if she has not gotten her true revenge by not killing Abby. With Tommy actions of pushing her to do so it triggers her ideas of what Abby did. With having her finally battle with Abby Ellie then realizes that Joel would not want her to turn into the kind of person that he was with always wanting revenge and succeeding at it. With her finally letting Abby go she is unevenly put at peace with her decision. Getting back to the farm house with Dina being gone, she understands that she made wrong decisions in her life accepting what she has done. Finding the guitar in the house that Joel made her not being able to play it makes her leave the guitar know that she needs to let her haunted memories go and be at peace. With having an ending like that made me have dislikes about the game but is still one of the best games I've ever played.… Expand

Okay so this is my first time publicly reviewing a game, and i wasn't intending to do so but i feel like owe this game some justice and have to defend it since it's getting review bombed for absolutely no reason. This is a masterpiece, clearly one of the best if not the best playstation game of all time. A huge improvement from the first game, gameplay wise, graphics wise and even the story is better. We can clearly see the evolution of the characters between the first and the second game, they have matured and are far more complex than in the first game. I get that Joel dying in the first few hours of the game must be a huge turn-off. But this game is all about revenge and it delivers its objective. I found it absolutely intelligent and smart to let you play as both Ellie and Abby because in doing so, you can relate to them and you can clearly see why they both did what they did. Abby wanted to avenge her father. Ellie wanted to avenge Joel, each one of them clearly had a valid reason to justify the atrocity and brutality of the events that happen in the game. I felt each and every bullet coming out of my bullet. I felt every bullet getting in my body. I COULD relate to these characters. Now the infected added a whole thing to the game, killing them was as challenging and scary as ever, i still cannot get over the huge infected with multiple heads, i was terrified. Thank you Naughty Dog, thank you Neil Druckmann. You've made us happy in a really tough time. The game is polished as it should, and clearly looks great. I don't mind games getting delayed if the end result is going to be as amazing as this. A masterpiece.… Expand

    Not everyone is going to enjoy the motives of The Last of Us Part II.
