    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don’t understand why critics are trying to protect this game. They kill off Joel at the very beginning of the game and force you to play as a character that you already hate. There aren’t very many good sides to this game besides the graphics and game mechanics plus the small flashbacks where Joel is still alive. Which are over shadowed by the storyline that is brutally forced down your throat. Critics are saying that the game hasn’t even been out for long yet all the cutscenes are on YouTube. I will admit the gameplay looks somewhat fun but I can’t convince myself to buy a single player game that is driven by a horrible story where the player basically has to sit back and watch. Expand

    Don't own the game (go ahead sue me sjw tlou2 defenders), no point in it. Wonder how Anita is liking her new pet, must like it a lot to use him ruin one of the most anticipated games of all time just so that it can be politically correct. I hope Neil gets shown in detail how to use a 5-iron.

    Nothing beats a forced writing in a video game, all the new characters that the writer intended to deliver are trash, the dialogues feels awful and awkward and it shows the linearity of the characters building/creating.
    Joel and Tommy are bunch of rookies now, no survival instincts, no brutal life experience, both experienced lot of ambushes in the past 20+ years but instead they let their guard down and trust strangers in a matter of seconds. Genuine and honest writing.
    It seems like no one cares about survival anymore, in a setting focuses mainly on survival and that’s what bothers me the most, focuses only on revenge and relationships.
    They should’ve stopped at Part 1, seven years waisted creating this garbage, and I hope all the gaming industry learns from it.

    Abby is the most insufferable, self-righteous character in all of video games.

    And Ellie suddenly deciding that "revenge is bad" because of a random flashback, after killing hundreds of random people, is just laughable.

    The story doesn’t make any sense. The characters, particularly one of the protagonists, behave in highly uncharacteristic ways in order to serve the writing/political message that the dev team wanted to convey. Play this game if you want to walk through a political agenda for 60 hours. If not, just go on with your life and think for yourself. Also metacritic seems to not want to let me post this

    Graphics - 10 - An absolutely good job for the environment design guys
    Gameplay - 8 - Normal, but quite fun, it was good but I expected something else
    Sound - 10 - Very good job for the Sound team
    Performance - 10 - Deserved applause for the team that takes care of this

    And this is the best thing you have ... From here everything is downhill

    History - 3. The first 2 hours were good, rest, damn it is absurd and bad
    Characters - 3 - I was expecting better development in character writing, or at least reaching the TLOU level 1
    Plot - 2 - A plot about revenge can be very convincing, we have perfect examples in the industry, but this plot, far from convincing you, leaves you with more doubts and in the end is crap
    Characteres - 3 - Really after having a lousy story and characters that you forget about them in 24 hours, do you expect the plot to be good? Bad, pretty poor

    Summary: 4/10. The plot and the story brings the game to life, it seems to me that in this they forgot about it.
    Online can be very fun.
    Recommended if only if you like apocalyptic environments and take screens.

The production team seems to have organized the contents to experience various people's stories, but that's enough to experience in debates and papers. There is also a lack of respect for the former character, and a lack of respect for the users who played it. Why should we learn something while playing games? Aren't we learning enough in our lives? Wasn't the game about getting a break from a weary reality life? It's not worth saying that it hurts the probability of a game to teach users something. Expand

From losing his wife and daughter in a tragic murder that scarred him for life, leaving him a hollow shell of a man, unable to love or feel. Then he took on the most important mission for humanity at the time, to protect that young innocent girl Ellie. He lost his only friend in the world to people who wanted to capture her, and he kept going because he thought he was doing what's right. Following Joel and his struggle, not only his struggle to survive or to help save humanity, but the struggle to regain his humanity. Tracing his journey he goes through highs, lows, fights with death and life itself, all to do what he thinks is right, and for us to follow that journey with him. He discovers a part of him that dies long ago thanks to her, thanks to the love he learned he could feel again. To the point where he allowed himself to feel, and loved her so much as his own child that he would rather doom all of humanity than have her die, have him be alone again. Joel had finally learned humility, and humanity.

    The last of us was a masterpiece of gaming, revolutionizing the way that style of game was played, and raising the standard for storytelling and connectivity to the player for other games.

    The Last of Us part 2 is a slap in the face for every loyal fan that bought The Last of us 1 and then later the remastered version. This was a beautiful story that was tainted by the developer's own twisted sexual fetishes. The creators could not help themselves from sexualizing a poor underage girl that went through so much trauma

Just completed the Last of Us Part 2, and I have got to say that this is the single most disappointing sequel to a video game that I can remember. After over 5 years of development gameplay has not changed apart from the ability to go prone and jump, which are fundamental mechanics you would think would’ve been in the game from the first installment. The game moves incredibly slow and contains little to no character development. Pair these with the horrible plot and terrible agenda that shaped the game’s story into the piece of garbage that it was, and this will surely to be looked back at as one of the most underwhelming releases in video game history.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First off, critics are useless. Nobody should ever listen to them ever again, they've proven to me that they are not to be trusted. on to the review:
    Graphics... That's the only good thing about this. Everything else is either mediocre or down right awful. The game play did not evolve one bit since 2013. It's still a walking simulator that's more a movie than a game, which would be enjoyable if it had a good story but God damn is it bad. The story simply broke my heart and not in the good way. It's like a spit in the face of the entire fan base. It's like the worst fan fiction you could possibly find. Seriously? This is what you came up after 7 years? Did Twitter write this game? It's full of plot holes and the characters you fell in love with in the first game are completely ruined and you are forced to play with the character that ruined them. I don't mind the woke stuff but when so much of it is obviously forced down your throat it feels like the entire game was built around it so if people don't like it you can pull the victim card and say that they are ists and phobes and whatever. And the director to preach so much about sexualising women in games is bad only than to put that Abby scene in the game? I can't unsee that. WTF were you thinking? I'd rather watch 2 girls one cup on repeat while eating. Let me tell you a little secret western game devs. People are playing games for entertainment and they'd rather see pretty things while doing it than ugl.. excuse me FUGLY ones! This is never going to change. How is sexualising men was never an issue? People don't like to be preached to and to be told what to think. In a video game setting, that choice should be always ours.
    Overall, I don't recommend this, especially if you were a fan of the previous one. maybe buy it when it's on a massive sale. Shame.

    Waste of money. Honestly can't believe the games journos and critics have scored this game so high. They are bought and paid for! Naughty dog are pathetic, they really made a mess of the last of us 2. The story and characters are poor. its really a kick in the teeth for fans of the first game. Truly disappointing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is my first time reviewing a game, it's not usually something I do, but I couldn't not give this game a 10. It truly is a masterpiece, and something everyone involved in the development should be really proud of what they have achieved!

    Try to ignore the amount of bad reviews, that amount of bad reviews in such a short space of time clearly shows they were not reviewing the whole game! Yes, a certain characters story comes to an end, and yes it sucks that it did, but c'mon guys - what did you expect? Did you genuinely think ND were going to basically mirror the feeling of the first story... They've switched it up, and I for one absolutely loved the experience. Give the game ago and be open minded.

    The graphics are truly spectacular, the gameplay is similar yet polished, the story is different but that doesn't make it bad, if you accept it and see where it takes you then it really is a great experience.

    Easily my favourite game on PS4, and I'm yet to talk to any of my pals who disagree. I finished it on Sunday night and couldn't stop thinking about the overall experience of the story.

    Of course there are a couple things they could have done different, but anything major enough to lower my score? Hell no.

    Anyway, this is just my opinion, but I felt the need to briefly write my thoughts on the game, so hopefully anyone involved in the making of the game may stumble across it amongst all the unnecessary hate, and appreciate that the majority of people accept it for everything it is, and truly appreciate the masterpiece they've created.

    Thanks for making one of my lockdown weekends a much better experience with this game!

    It is good in the graphic, technical section, but what really failed was the story, because it leaves a bad taste in the mouth, most of the players when the first game was recommended was for the story and you played it and the I really think you were impressed, but this time it was somewhat disappointing

    First of all, this game had the potential to be special, as people were generally hyped for the game. It was one of the most anticipated PS exclusive for a while. While the game received marginal improvements, most notably in graphics and combat mechanics, it failed in delivering one key factor that made the first Last of Us great ; the story.

    Most of the character felt out of sync when

While the game received marginal improvements, most notably in graphics and combat mechanics, it failed in delivering one key factor that made the first Last of Us great ; the story.

    Most of the character felt out of sync when compared to the first title and new characters are even more difficult to relate, making the game feel like a mess at best. especially considering this is the sequel of the beloved first Last of Us.

    I never wanted this game to be trashed like this, as I adored the first one, and I think the same goes to other fans of this franchise. But seeing how things have unfold, I really wanted to give a reminder to them that this isn't how you carry the legacy of a game that so many loved and admired for its character, world-building and storytelling. They mishandled all the wait after 7 years like they mishandled their character in the sequel.

    At the end of the day, instead of feeling like a love letter , this feels like a huge middle finger to the first game. And I think this justifies why a lot of people are upset. Anyway that's what I've come to believe and I think that's enough.

    Also they have Netflix for that why invade the gaming community too?? We were happy and I bet even gay people and transgenders didn’t want to play as abby or have the story like this.

    The graphics in this game are superb, the rest of it however is pitiful at best. The storyline is terrible and gameplay becomes highly boring and repetitive. I honestly would avoid this steaming garbage pile of a 'game' at all cost.

Even as fun and tense as it is to play, as a narrative focused game, this story fails immensely. On top of that, playing as Joel’s killer garners no sympathy, just rage. I can’t recommend this game to anyone, even if it’s the sequel to my favorite video game of all time. Expand

This shift from “The Last Of Us” to “Part 2” in character development was made in order to fit the story Naughty Dog set up to appease the current generations “Woke”, “Cancel”, and “edgy” culture. I am rating this a 0 due to the fact that “graphics” do not make a great game but a story does and this game does not even fall into the “it’s okay” category. Thank you Naughty Dog for the great games and even this attempt. Still a fan but a disappointed one. Expand

    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]
