    Parabéns a ND por trazer uma narrativa densa que mostra os dois lados da história. Era desse ponto de vista que mais jogos poderiam trabalhar a partir de agora nos pondo nos dois pontos de vista.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pros: it's a very good, immersive game with realistic gory action sequences. Weapons feel like they inflict real damage, foes are fearsome and humanlike. Setting is picturesque.

    Cons: Story is crummy and feels out of place in the world of the game. Very much feels like a poor sequel after the intensity of the first game. So much so that it ruins the game somewhat. Engaging the enemies feels repetitve toward the later sections of the game.

    I am a very big fan of The Last of Us and I waited seven years for the sequel. Today was supposed to be a celebration day, the launch of the sequel to one of my favorite games of all time.

    I am a very big fan of The Last of Us and I waited seven years for the sequel. Today was supposed to be a celebration day, the launch of the sequel to one of my favorite games of all time.

    Unfortunately, it's far from being a celebration day. It's basically a funeral.

    I enjoyed the gameplay of the first game a lot and Part 2 has pretty much the same gameplay which is a big plus - it's still good. The graphics are gorgeous and the music is excellent.
    However...
    Just like in the first game, The Last of Us Part 2's main drawing force should be the story. I regret to inform that the story in this game is absolutely terrible. There is a lack of respect for the characters from the first game, the ones that I loved very much, like Joel and Ellie. The story is a basic revenge plot with a modern "subversion of expectations" at the end which I didn't enjoy at all.

    I am mourning the franchise, because this game really sank the ship. It really really did.

    With the new movement and actions, a new way of moving through the scenarios was created, although little used the way of throwing cables could have generated very interesting puzzles.

    As for the story, I understand the motivation of the characters and how each one arrived in this emotional state, however the best story was on account of the secondary Lev and his sister.

Now I accept, that everyone will have a differing opinion on the games story but personally I loved it. There some really strong messages about people, revenge, love and forgiveness. It's essentially a character study. I grew to love the characters and understand what motivates the, and keeps them going.

    Graphically, the game is one of the best things i've ever seen. Sound design is top notch. The voice acting and animation, top notch.

    Gameplay wise it was a vast improvement over the first one. movement was smoother, combat was visceral. It was fun to sneak around, or just start tossing everything when things got crazy. I loved finding the notes and listening to your companions which fleshed out the story and characters even more.

    I did have issues with the pacing at times but overall it kept me wanting to keep playing, just to see what happens next.

    I will say this, while I did play the Last of Us 1, i don't have the same attachment to the characters that i know some people, including my friends had. I had no "headcanon" of what I wanted out of the story for part 2 and was just excited to experience the story that the developers wanted to tell. I understand that this story, is not going to be popular with everyone, Some may even hate it, and that is fine. Everything I wrote is my personal opinion.

    This is a game that happens when the developer's passion is the political ideas about sexuality, gender-power, gender-role, SJW-communities overrides his passion for gaming.
    This is a game is the same version of movies that include LGBTQ/Asian/Black for the sake of "Diversity" and empowering gender-role and his LGBTQ-fantasies.

But transgenders claim to be the other sex and then try to force their believes in others. .. people shall do what they need to do. But when they try to intrude my bathrooms and try to force what I have to say then that's where I cut the line. Men are men. Women are women. And I don't support The nonsense at all. And making this game a LGBTQ movement is a no-no... I also wouldn't like to have anti Trump or Bernie propaganda in my games. Already had enough that I need to see BLM movements on all websites if all I want to do is watch a movie. Please keep politics out of my games. Transgenders are humans which I sympathize with. They will never be able to be the sex they want to be. But I will never be 15 again. And I will probably never be announced as the most attractive guy on earth. Life is full of things you can never be. I feel bad for the high suicide rates. But you can't throw away basic logic. Is someone says he's a bird and he can fly I don't think trying to not stop him from jumping off a cliff it's the right thing to do because you accept him as bird. Mentally ill people need help. People with depression need help. And people who feel as if they're the wrong body need help. You just can't force me to think that men or women woman are men. Men are men and women a women.
    However they are human beings and I support their right to dress however they want. I don't support them having the right to take away basic logic and freedom of speech. And thus I cannot play this game. At a game I can play is 0/10.

    Please keep politics and games separated. Thanks

The ending gets things back on course, but I just wasn't invested any longer.
    I've heard some complaints that the game tries to be too "woke". They do shove some of their ideology in there unnecessarily, but it doesn't ruin the game for me. It is forced and doesn't make sense in the world of the game, but it's mostly just an annoyance.
    I just hope if they decide to make a third, they scrap all the nonsense and learn from their mistakes.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. People giving this game a 0 are just as bad as people giving this game a 10.

    Yes, the story is awful. They layer tropes within tropes, with my favorite example being the child who runs away from the cult because they are being forced into a marriage with an older man... but don't want to because they are... transgendered? I am all for equality and consider myself somewhat of a social justice warrior IRL, but this just feels like they had a story put together and then decided to inject hot-button social issues into every plot point where they could fit them. The problem though is that even if the story didn't include the SJW overload, it would still be a mediocre story with an unsatisfying ending.

    At the end of the day though, the fact is that this game is a masterpiece in level design, gameplay and graphics. If you could skip all cut-scenes and just have an adventure in post-apocalyptic Seattle hunting down bad guys and zombies while scrambling for scant supplies, the game would stand among one of the best games of the year.

And in the end you understand all the motivations behind it all because the script fits perfectly into its 4 acts. It really moved me much more than the first one, apart from being much more plausible and spun. For example, here I find more convincing reasons to kill an enemy than I had in the first game. I really feel like this universe is built in a more adult way. Even in certain issues like the characters looking away when we try to get close to them with the camera is a sign that their lives belong to them, like for example in Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, where we are one of the voices handling Senua and he looks away from our excessive control. Their lives are theirs. And that's why at certain times the decisions are feared by them and not by us. The Last of Us 2 is probably the best video game I've ever played. Expand

    Whomever let the writers and designers do this to "the last of us" should be just fired on the spot from working in the game company, if not from the entertainment industry. They clearly do not understand the costumer base, or even reality. This may as well be the end of the last of us franchise.

    The original had a bland/repetitive game-play, sure, but the story compensated it with its incredible world and characters but the part II turned this into the bland game-play of the original game... the best part of the game. i.e. everything is in the negative but the game-play.

    There needs to be an good editor in these things to kick those kinds of stories to the curve. Otherwise, this studio is done for.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A lot has been said about this game. The only thing I can do after beating it is agreeing with the fact that it’s bad. Gameplay is fine but identical to the first one. The feeling is that the game drags itself so much over its welcome, due to decent but highly repetitive mechanics and level design. The first one had on its side a shorter length, and a much, much better storyline and characters. This part 2 goes in every single wrong direction it could, when it comes to these two aspects. It starts flushing away the most fundamental thing that EVERYONE wanted to see: the relationship between Joel and Ellie, killing off the first, and transforming the second into an unlikable sociopathic dumbass. All the other characters are either destroyed and marginalized (Tommy) or just forgettable in the best case, including Abby. I’ve seen many hating her so much. I couldn’t do even that. She just doesn’t make me feel anything. She’s so bi-dimensional that DoomGuy expresses infinite more personality with a couple of grunts. What made me feel extremely annoyed though is the way the writers try to trick the player in liking her with any sort of subterfuge, because oooh she plays with doggos, oooh look how she saves zebras, oooh look how she saves kids, oooh look how many friends she has, she must be the best person in the world. Well no, she is not. She is just a terribly written character (together with all her besties), with 0 character development and an atrociously boring and stupid storyline that goes nowhere and simply wastes your time. Even the LGBT representation is done much better in the first game (Bill and his side story are so well written, so sweet and at the same time so bitter. Definitely one of the best parts of the first game). Here things are just thrown in just for sake of politics, decontextualized, stereotyped and simply uninteresting. What I wanted to see in the game are Ellie and Joel, how they’re coping with the end of civilization (the best part of this whole thing is the flashback in the museum), I wanted to see developments with the infection, I wanted to see how humanity is surviving. I wanted lore, emotions, world building, character development. What I’ve got instead is Abby literally taking it in the ass in one of the worse sex scenes I’ve ever watched.

    Giving it a 5 because of the graphics. Seriously, I can’t understand how were they able to achieve this on an obsolete hardware such as PS4. This is going to be the benchmark for the new console generation, together with RDR2 and Death Stranding. And, hopefully, Cyberpunk 2077.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What the reviews for this game show is that we have a pandemic among the human population due to a lack of basic empathy for others. Ellie and Joel are not your creations. You may have been happier to have had another cross country trail with the two of them however instead you were provided with a truly unique experience. You were forced to realise that everyone has their own story and why they act the way they do instead of the usual dumbed down good and evil dynamic. This game was lost on you and to be honest a lot of life will be also. It was a devastating ending which was heartbreaking. It wasn’t happy however there remains hope that both characters can find happiness in a world which has really gone to **** Revenge is poisonous and cost both these characters a heavy price. I’m thankful for the experience. Naughty Dog own these characters and created them and I trust them with the narrative. Not some whiney clowns who want to be spoon fed artificial grief but always with a happy ending in conclusion. Grow up. Expand

The gameplay is very much the same as the original with not much innovation. I didn’t mind that at first but after the 50th time sneaking around enemies it became robotic apart from a couple of exceptions. People praising this game for including lesbians, transgenders etc are missing the point. The story falls flat, they tried to be smart, daring and produce something shocking for the sake of being shocking but overall it’s totally dull and such a depressing game to play. If I anything I thought it was too violent! Something I never thought I’d say.


    I really loved the first game but I feel this one has tainted it, that’s how poor the story is. The writer’s egos got in the way unfortunately.

    Wow, what can I say about this steaming pile of garbage? First of all, it made me sick to my stomach to see them waste the only like able character. But the ending is worst. AND the whole game feels like it has some political agenda. I give it 1 since the graphics is too notch. I’d actually recommend waiting for a used copy in a couple of years - don’t support this nonsense.

    Was very disappointed with the story and lack of replay value (even with a new game +), but the gameplay is pretty fun in parts, certain scenes are cinematically dramatic to great effect (even in the latter half), and the graphics throughout are comparable to RDR2. Lots of work went into this, but it feels much to waste, unfortunately.

    A story about forgiveness, cruelty and the grey areas between hero and villain (as the easter eggs cards). Awesome gameplay, somegreat characters, one of the best sound design with RDR2, some plot holes/bad decisions but after 30+ hours, it was a great experience even with even with the end not that good.

The last of us parte 2 é sobre PERSPECTIVA e Ciclo do ódio e te dá um soco no estômago durante a jornada de 25 a 30 horas. Um jogo belo e construído nos mínimos detalhes, sem furos. E o gameplay é o mesmo só que aprimorado em todos os âmbitos, do jeito que ter que ser: Gráficos absurdos, cenários muito maiores, mais abordagens, combate mais visceral e fluído, sistema de tiro mais realista.
    Todo o conjunto torna TLOU 2 um dos melhores que já joguei e o que mais me marcou junto com tlou 1.

Don't get me wrong it him me like a tonne of bricks but it's apart of the story. However the game would get a 10 but I have a big critique. The final mission where you go to kill Abby is so pointless there's literally not a single point in that mission. They should've just ended it with Ellie living happy on the farm with Dina and JJ and Abby and lev finding the fireflies. I would've been so happy with that ending. But the ending they've gone for is Ellie roaming the wilderness alone and we have absolutely no idea what's happened to Abby and lev. Awful ending it's a 10/10 game but the ending knocks two points off for sure. I also couldn't have been the only person to really like Abby so I wasn't happy at all at the end when we were trying to kill her.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The production values of this game are top notch. Graphics, environments, music and acting are great. One of the best of the current generation. Unfortunately the game is narrative driven and the writing is shoddy at best. The story is structured poorly, the characters are shallow and act in incomprehensible fashion. My idea of a great game is to be put the player in a world to make decisions and see how they play out. In this game I’m put into the world to do what the writers want, without real agency. For a big portion of the game I’m forced to act in a way I don’t want to, and even worse, play a character I don’t want to play with.

    The gameplay itself is very similar to the original, almost no innovation, and it feels both unfair and illogical at times. It is not fair that I’m against a dozen NPC:s with a gun, but each time I can get only 1-2 billets from them. The scarcity is artificial and does not make sense. Playing with the Abby character, a solider for several years, is too similar to playing with Ellie. For some reason she learns about crafting, gun improvements and close combat skills only on the days I’m playing the character, the exact days when Ellie is in town. Unrelated to my rating, I find Sony/Naughty Dog PR and marketing decisions suspicious. Not allowing the reviewers to talk about the whole game and misleading gamers on the content of the game was not cool, almost like a bait-and-switch. Given the game they made, I kinda understand, but can not approve.

    The gameplay is old and stale, the story telling is all over the place. This is what happens when you have writers based on color and pink hair instead of talent.

    Neil Druckman hates the female figure but loves butch men pretending to be female, it also appears he likes making and seeing stories on young teenage lesbians.

    They are savage, irrational, cruel and vengeful.
    You want sugar coated stories, full of cliches, happy endings, etc ?
    There is plenty out there to satisfy you.
    The characters in this game are well defined, and whether you like them or not, it's beside the point.
    The game play it's awesome. Enemy AI is among the best I've seen and you can adjust the Difficulty
    to a degree that is way beyond you find in any game these days.
    Combat is hard and that's the way it should be. You're not happy ? Go play Ghosts Of Tsushima which has the dumbest AI you can find.
    The atmosphere and immersion are also top notch.
    There is no filler stuff here, if you want that, again, go play Ghosts Of Tsushima.
    Graphics and visuals are up there with the best. Even better than Days Gone.

    tl:dr - story needed to be executed better, ending sucked. gameplay is great.

    hope naughty dog makes a new IP after this game. i think we have exhausted the world of last of us at this point. i know they wanted to get real dark with this game but i eventually got akame ga kill vibes from the story when it comes to characters deaths.
