    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. No one is mad about the games use of trans and lgbtq characters. We are mad because they did Joel dirty. Yes he deserved to die for basically sacrificing humanity for Ellie, but not like that man. They introduce a character no one knows anything about. Just to have that person kill one of the main character of the previous game. By beating his head in with a golf club. At least give us an hour or two of game play with Abby. That way we can start to understand her rage. The devs rushed it leaving the players with nothing, but rage after watching the character they loved get beat to death. Not being able to do anything to stop it. Then the ending come and finally we can kill Abby. We can have avenge Joel’s death. And the Devs say NO they don’t give you an option to kill her. You just let her go she’s set free. All that build up for nothing just a clear set up for a third game. Awful just awful don’t waste your money on this game. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. worst game ever, congrats NaughtyDog for ruining a classic, and trying to pin your failure on homophobia and transphobia, I'm gay, and I hated this game, I hated the secret social justice warrior bs, the agendas, and ideologies you tried to push through the game. Do you really think a trans person would care about pronouns in a world like this? really? or an extremist group would care about some trans person in an apocalyptic world. Do you think you can disrespect a great smart character like Joel and get away with it? did you really think making us play Abby was a good choice? that we'd sympathize with her? You killed Joel in the most humiliating way possible, a great character died in the stupidest way possible. Joel, the guy that never trusted strangers, and barely trusted anyone, the guy that survived 25 years in that world. is killed by strangers with a golf bat, do you think The Joel Miller would be so casual with armed strangers in the apocalypse? the man that didn't stop for an injured man who turned out to be an enemy is so casual with a group of armed strangers in a small clear space without cover, hell he didn't even seem cautious between them, he told them his name so casually. This game is the biggest disappointment of the century. you kept the narcissistic creep Niel but didn't pursue the actual important people that made The Last Of Us so great, no you let this creep Niel drive them out, just to spam the game with his face, props about him, (self-inserts) and characters that look like him. That creep wanted nothing but to make this game about himself. the characters not only are out of character, but they aren't even logical, it's like the game was written by an alien pretending to be a human. What person sees someone they view as a father being bashed to death and then have their fingers bitten off by that same person that killed your father figure, and then you let them live. so basically she went to get her fingers bitten off and then went back home, really? so she kills Nora but lets Abby go? critics huh? great job deceiving us NaughtyDog, making us believe Joel will help Ellie with her revenge in the trailer and making us believe he's going to have a big role in the game, and then you change everything, this is the last game I buy from Naughty Dog, and I'm getting a refund soon. what a let down that was. redo the game, or pull it from the shelves and don't make a sequel in the first place. fire Neil Druckmann. he's the reason this amazing game is now ruined, he is the guy that shoved his face in the game, just to have sex and spit on Joel's corpse. kinda symbolic. bring back the original crew. Neil didn't make this game for the fans or the story, he made it for himself. you can CLEARLY see that from the writing and storytelling, Neil shouldn't even create a game, let alone the sequel to a beloved and anticipated classic game.

    Gracias a la agenda progresista otra cosa buena fue arruinada con su forzado intento de concientizar, espero que este fracaso sirva como ejemplo para que las desarrolladoras de videojuegos, películas, etc, no vuelvan a intentar hacer algo como esto de nuevo.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Don’t trust the paid for critics. As usual it’s the real people playing the games that give the honest opinions. If you loved the original characters you will be seriously disappointed with this sequel. So called creative director Neil Druckmann has trolled loyal fans by delivering the complete opposite of what they wanted. Joel and Ellie might as well not be in this game. If you really cared about those characters (like I did) then give this a hard pass. The level of narcissism shown by Druckmann is unfathomable. I cannot imagine how he was allowed to derail what could have become a billion dollar franchise. This game will be bought by many loyal fans and like me they will feel betrayed by the false advertising and the blatant lies that tricked them into parting with their money. Sure the game has pretty graphics and smooth game play but beyond that it is soulless. It desperately attempts to be clever by forcing you to commit acts of atrocity and then preaches to you about how awful this is... it’s moronic, patronising and simply fails on every level. The female writer that delivered the brilliant original had no hand in this utter garbage and it shows. I will never buy anything remotely connected to Neil Druckmann ever again. I sincerely hope that his career is over. Don’t waste your time or money, Ghost of Tsushima is coming out soon and then CyberPunk is following later on this year. My advice is to save your money for what are much more likely to be quality entertaining titles. Or if you really need an apocalypse fix and haven’t yet played Days Gone, it’s definitely worth a look, it’s the entertaining sequel that this game should of been. Expand

    Expectations:

    Played the first part few days ago. Enjoyed the story, gameplay of it was not up to dates standards, but storywise there were the expectations: Lots of deep stuff between Joel and Ellie and the state where it ended was kind of tense and I really wanted to know how this continues from this.

    Reality:

    Whole game feels like standalone. It did not really continue from the ending of the part 1. Somehow all those things that were open and interesting at the end kind of disappeared. Just feels like that this was not part 2. It was just kind of same characters that are changed from the part 1 and used for "hollywood standard plot". Gameplay was almost identical or even more mundane than the part 1.

    Graphics were best I have seen, but as some streamed noted: Good graphics are kind of wasted when the game is not enjoyable itself.

    Conclusion:

    If you are looking for spiritual second part of last of us part 1. This is not it. You can think it as basic gameplay of part 1 with hollywood movie level plot and it doesnt really continue from the part 1. Its like other timeline where the personalities are different and none of the questions are rightfully answered or developed that are left after part 1.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I heard about the leaks a while back and was incredibly disappointed to hear about how Naughty Dog decided to control the narrative of the game. I wasn’t quick to judge because leaks can be very misleading. I took it upon myself to watch the gameplay of the game and wait for the actual reviews to come out. No I’m not talking about the reviews that are done by critics, but by actual gamers. People that have actually been proven to know what the people will actually like. Critics can’t be trusted. They are always so out of touch with the community. Naughty Dog ruined this game by killing off Joel in the most silly way possible. Then they try to make you sympathize with the man/woman (I honestly can’t tell) who killed Joel by making you play as her, then you don’t even get to avenge Joel by killing her at the end. She just walks away scratch free. The dialogue doesn’t feel the same and all the character seem literally more stupid. Joel walked into the trap for no reason. Imagine being Naughty Dog and coming up with the plot of the second game and thinking it’s a good idea to make it a revenge story because Joel killed an irrelevant doctor in the last game. They could have just been semi-intelligent and made it about the Fireflies wanting to hunt down Ellie to find the cure. Then Joel and Ellie are on the run instead of them looking for someone like last game. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As someone who considers the first game very important and holds it dear to their heart, I had high expectations for this game and if I were to say that the game lived up to them I'd be lying. The Last Of Us 2 has consistent issues with a wishy-washy plot and beating over your head that violence is bad while forcing you to enact the violence. It makes little sense considering the ending of the game but I feel like truthfully the game is good. It has so much potential and improves heavily on the gameplay from the first. Arguably the most stunning game on the PS4, The Last of Us 2 could have had it all. The visuals, the sound design, the performances, everything about it is good with the exception of the wishy-washy plot (and the plot holes that follow) and before anyone goes off to assume I am getting shelled out cash to write nice things about the game let me get it out there that not only has that been debunked like a million times but I'm a broke college student who purchased the game with my own money. Neil Druckmann does not know I exist, nor does he care no one is shoving me in the direction to write position things about the game. It took me thirty hours to play and I played on light if anyone is curious not that it's incredibly important.

    I think that the plot has too many plot holes, it also falters with Ellie's inability to let go and move on with her life even when others do. She does some things that don't ruin her character but are so frustrating to play. Narratively it made sense for Joel to die, I'm sorry to say it because I love Joel but it did. It also makes some sense that his death is sudden and misplaced because we're made to feel Ellie's anger, the restlessness and the need for revenge. How are we supposed to justify her huge revenge rampage if we aren't angry too? Though, I can't say I wouldn't have liked to see a Logan style story for the two of them. The main issue for me with the story is the whole ending and Abby. She's not a terrible character but the issue with her is that she's so incredibly unlikeable because a handful of minutes into knowing her she brutally murders a character we love. She is also a reflection of Joel whether anyone likes it or not, it becomes pretty clear with Lev's storyline with hers but I did not like her until Lev and Yara were shoved into her part of the story. I also think that the game was so heavily misleading in marketing that it comes across as lying to the audience which isn't a great look.

    However, that being said I found the game fast paced and so enjoyable despite the brutal violence and not wanting to play as Abby initially. A few parts of the first game really drag for me, mostly Boston and the first chunk of Pittsburg but there were very few bits of part two where I lacked interest to keep playing. And I need to give the game credit because I did not know where it was going a lot of the time, only to watch the plot unravel as you go through the days in the weird non-linear way they structure it. I wanted to play as Ellie more, only wanted to play as Ellie actually but I came to really enjoy Abby's parts of the game. Especially considering how horror driven it got and had far more infected enemies than human. The Seraphites were also pretty frightening and jarring. I jumped when Ellie got shot with an arrow the first time. There's just so much about this game that's good and the plot holes just weigh it down which sucks so bad because the potential is right there.

    A lot of people though are just taking a piss on the game because Joel dies, Abby has big arms and Ellie is gay which will never cease to be clown behavior to me but that's none of my business I suppose. This is my review and I enjoyed the game, thought it lacked for valid reasons. Keeping the messy plot in mind though I still can't give it a super low rating because there was no part of the game where I thought, I'm miserable and never want to play this again or that I regretted purchasing it because I didn't. The game is sad, it's brutal and becomes a little too much at times. It is not the sequel that Ellie or Joel deserved and I hope they take note that while you don't always have to do what the audience wants, it isn't an excuse for the messy writing. So much of this game was a pleasant surprise, I liked it much more than I thought I would knowing the leaks ahead of release but there is plenty I also don't like. The game isn't simply good or bad, but it also isn't a garbage fire like everyone is making it out to be.

    If you're going to review the game so badly because of an "agenda", either watch a playthrough or play it. The supposed "woke agenda" lot of people are going off about is in no way harmful or being shoved down your damn throat. This is nothing new, Left Behind came out forever ago. Please grow up and go play something else.

    Also Ashley Johnson acted the **** out of this game and I hope she gets some kind of nomination or reward for it because god damn

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After many years of work and the long time between the games, I had expected to see a masterpiece but what I got was a burning pile of **** The gameplay is still just as good as the original and the graphics are just as good. However, the story is riddled with plot holes, the character development makes no sense what so ever. I had sat through the whole game and after it was over, I was very confused about what had naught dog was thinking. With killing off the main character just for shock, and then letting the murderer's walk was a waste of an amazing chance to make Ellie shine in a way that wasn't possible in the original. The characters are shallow with no depth. After this entire time and my 80 dollars for a pre-order, I could not be more pissed off at this game and the developers. I have played games that were free, that had better storylines and character development. Please do not waste your time and money like I did. Expand

    This game was such a dissapointment compared to the first. I was a huge fan of the first game and was shocked at the direction they took the sequel. Shock value above all else apparently, and a disgusting focus on fringe ideologies that seemed out of place in the fictional apocalyptic world they created in the first game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is main focus is the story so I will focus on that too.

    I can’t say that the graphics and gameplay aren’t good because they are.

    But I just feel it’s such a waste to have this amount of attention to detail in the game and For it to be just thrown down the drain.

    This game could’ve been something special but due to unlikable characters and a lackluster story It fails miserably to deliver.

    I just hope that this once upon a time great studio Can go back to focus on making great games and not hammering home appoint that we all agree upon.
    You can feel that there’s something wrong going on at naughty dog studios, people quitting, almost everyone who worked on the first game are gone.

    Something in the game happens something horrible and they force you to play the character that did that thing. Which is one of the biggest complaints that see people talk about and They are right because that character isn’t likable and isn’t relatable she’s purely evil she’s not well motivated and she’s definitely not charismatic.
    I would’ve loved to play the villain like Negan for example from The Walking Dead someone who is charismatic someone who you enjoy watching them be bad or even good sometimes but no you gotta push an agenda.

    you get what you deserve naughty dog.

The Premise is simple,Revenge does not end, it's an endless cycle of meaningless conflict in the end;the execution of said premise in The Last of Us 2 is an extremely lacking narrative that makes the player feel like they have wasted their time.
    Characters seem to meander throughout without ever having an epiphany or enlightened moment,the payoff is not something extravagant but something as mundane as letting things go.which in it's own regard is excellent but the entire journey undertaken in this game becomes pointless if there was no ultimate payoff. Overall The last of us two was ambitious but ultimately it forgets what it's ambition was.

    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.
