    unsurpassed, a new level in video games. His story seems more natural. It can be said that it is one of the reasons that classify video games as a new art. The true qualification is the change that leaves in each one at the moment of finishing the story.

    It’s one of the best games of all time, fan criticism is just stupid, you got good development of the characters, their motivations and all of that just ends in a mature and impressive way. You have to play this game not being followed by the idea that the protagonist (Ellie) is always going to win and act like a killer

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Я обычно не оставляю оценки на агрегаторах, но в этот раз пожалуй изменю себе. Много грязи вылили люди на эту игру, от части по понятным причинам, от части по абсолютно идиотским. Я не имею ничего против тех людей кому игра просто "не зашла" или это "не их". Но я откровенно не понимаю той истерии которую устроили вокруг нее в интернете.

    Я являюсь сторонником идеи что хорошее художественное произведение не должно нравится всем. Более того не обязано заигрывать с потребителем и давать ему именно "позитивные" эмоции.
    К сожалению в современной поп культуре не принято так делать. Продукт должен охватывать максимальную аудиторию, следовательно должен быть удобоваримым и усваиваемым для максимума людей. Люди приучены к этому Голливудсим кино и ААА игры в массе своей тоже стараются соответствовать этим стандартам. На этом фоне TLoU2 это самая настоящая "белая ворона". Лично на меня с точки зрения повествования игра произвела куда большее впечатление и вызвала куда больший эмоциональный отклик чем ее предшественница. Но я так же легко могу представить почему у кого-то впечатления могут быть прямо противоположными.
    Все же я уверен что время все расставит по своим местам и игра получит свою долю похвал и приобретет аудиторию которая ее полюбит как полюбил уже я и многие другие, несмотря на всю ту ненависть что на нее свалилась.
    В заключении хочу сказать что по моему мнению несмотря на всю свою неоднозначность индустрии крайне необходимы подобные игры. Иначе недалек тот день когда все что мы будем видеть на полках игровых магазинов это игры со стерильным и безопасным сюжетом голливудского блокбастера. В таких играх самих по себе ничего плохого конечно нет, но если игры типа TLoU2 перестанут создаваться это будет означать фактический закат синглплеерных игр как жанра.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Congratulations Naughty Dog, you subverted our expectations. By doing so, you collapsed two of the greatest characters in video games and created a half-baked story that seems like it's only goal is to try and hurt the gamer, but hey, it looks nice and sounds cool so you get a 10/10. This was a story with none of what made the first game special, instead it simply tried to drive the plot forward with forced shock value, and in the end, I guess none of this pain we all endured even mattered.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I wanna start by saying that it's important to remember that the first game was a game with a very heavy emphasis on story, and therefore I think this sequal is more for the fans of the original game, rather than newcomers to the franchise (since it's a continuation of an already developed story). I avoided all spoilers to give this game a fair chance. Sadly, it was immensely disappointing, ruining both main characters of the original game. The pacing of the game, with the flashbacks within flashbacks and such was really weird and badly executed. All of this is such a shame, since the visuals, gameplay and atmosphere is definitely "game of the year" worthy, but the bad story, bad character development (of most of the characters), and inclusion of a horribly dull and uninteresting main "villain" just made this game uninteresting and boring for more than half of my playtime, and why would I give a boring game a high rating? Either way, I had such high hopes for this game, and it's just really sad that naughty dog couldn't live up to their previous standards.… Expand

    Grafica ottima, comparto tecnico ottimo, sceneggiatura superlativa. Il lavoro di Nauthy Dog è semplicemente scioccante, un ottimo titolo. Alla base del titolo ci sono i sentimenti più forti che costituiscono l'uomo come tale. 9 perchè la perfezione non esiste, piccolissimi bug e gameplay dinamico ma lineare del punto di vista della componente stealth. Chapeau.

I can see how many people with certain life experiences would find this game initially emotionally satisfying however the totality of the package feels like being forced to relive a brutal and highly personal trauma that holds little lasting universal human appeal.

    Ending is super boring where nothing is achieved and you felt like you did nothing as Ellie. Joel dies in the stupidest way which is super out of character for him I mean he could of survived by using a fake name or not saying anything at all. Naughty Dogs behavior in trying silence the community is disgusting and shows they're in denial. Failure of a sequel

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The 7 year wait was to see the development of Joel and Ellie's relationship, their continued journey, the battle against the infection and the revelation behind Ellie's discovery of Joel's actions surrounding the fireflies, was half the reason I expressed interest in this game. The other half was due to the TRAILER, depicting the interactions of Ellie and Joel throughout Part 2, of which, was later found to be MISLEADING, UNTRISTWORTHY and a blatant MARKETING SCHEME to feed off the following of Part 1.

    There are redeeming qualities to this game, lovers of the original gameplay mechanics will find them more refined and responsive, the graphics are astounding (as to be expected with any AAA game in this day and age) and the suspense/ shock factor is real with every encounter, be they human or infected.

    But, the attention to the story felt lackluster, like the Devs had a checklist of current worldwide issues they HAD to cover. They focused on promoting LGBTQ (in keeping with Ellie from TLOU1) but also proceeded to vomit other cultural references such as:
    Identity struggles (Lev, who despite a pressing global infection, managed to weasel in a gender identity issue - talk about priorities),
    and also, Trans inferences (whereby Abby with her lack of emotion, boasts a steroid physique akin to an absolute Chad. Given there is 0 censorship on her scene with Owen where they quite literally "Bump Uglies" it can only be assumed Sony views her as a he, contradictory to Druckman, who again - must have been ticking a box)
    It felt like the game was being catered to every audience, BUT the Fans. That way, when diehard Fans rallied with disappointment, other game critiques and reviewers would sing praise, simply because the game "attempted" to tackle real world issues within a modern context, and then actively look to silence "The Rest of Us".

    The second part was a Trainwreck (and the Devs knew it, since they informed early access players/ reviewers NOT to mention the second half of the game) What the first game did so well was establish motive for Joel, witnessing the loss of his daughter at the start of the game and coming full circle at the end when he chooses Ellie, his surrogate daughter, over the fate of the world (of which was responsible for taking child) we understood him, his grief and the decision he made and we were content with the climax of the game. TLOU2 attempts to achieve this relatability with a secondary character (Abby) in about 10 hours, since she has an NPC dad who loves animals, who loves his daughter, and was a firefly who died at the hands of a man unwilling to sacrifice a child, we're meant to feel connected to her? And if none of those factors made her as "relatable" as Joel, they also give her a sidekick, Lev, of which, during the course of the game I found myself verbally exclaim "why the **** am I looking for this kid that I couldn't care less about?" The entire time playing her I was waiting to swap back to Ellie so I could wipe the smug look off her face, and that final battle, the suspenseful Death Stranding-esc showdown!? That was the ultimate blueballs in the end. Had the ending been a character based decision, (press X to) "Drown the **** or (press ∆ to) "let her sail away happily ever after" I'd have left her on the ocean floor every time.

    I've seen the game regarded the Gaming equivalent of GoT Season 8, and the more you look into it, the more the parallels can be drawn:
    Started off great (Part 1 was amazing, then went "down the pan")
    Character threads lacking fulfillment (Joel and Ellie's relationship explored only in "Flashbacks")
    Character development abandoned (Joel's scepticism of the world and people is abandoned just so Abby can take him for a round of Golf)
    Downright disappointing ending (Abby ****s off to Neverland while Ellie returns to nothing)
    Seemingly incompetent writers (who butchered everything they achieved in Part 1 simply to achieve some semblance of a "SHOCK" factor)

    There is a petition on Change.org regarding the game, may this petition get traction and the game be changed for the better. Although, any press is good press right? so our anger as cheated consumers (MISLEADING TRAILER), will more than likely be ignored in favour of promoting how the game "Subverts Expectations" (if that's what they call **** all over your fans these days)

    I hope Cyberpunk2077 destroys this game, of which gameplay reviews sound promising

    And may there never be a Part 3

    Was habe ich am ersten Teil geliebt?
    Schlichtweg ALLES! Der erste Teil war und ist ein Meilenstein der Videospielgeschichte. Die Story, in der Joel seine Tochter verliert, mit Elli jedoch Ersatz findet und mit ihr all diese Abenteuer besteht und sie am Schluss aus Liebe rettet, ist einfach unfassbar gut gewesen. Ich war oft zu Tränen gerührt und habe den ersten Teil unendlich oft    Was habe ich am ersten Teil geliebt?
    Schlichtweg ALLES! Der erste Teil war und ist ein Meilenstein der Videospielgeschichte. Die Story, in der Joel seine Tochter verliert, mit Elli jedoch Ersatz findet und mit ihr all diese Abenteuer besteht und sie am Schluss aus Liebe rettet, ist einfach unfassbar gut gewesen. Ich war oft zu Tränen gerührt und habe den ersten Teil unendlich oft durchgespielt. Kurz vor Release des zweiten Teils, noch auf Erbarmunglos die letzten Trophäen geholt. Dann kam der zweite Teil...

    Was ich gut fand:
    Grafik, Gameplay, Atmosphäre, Sound, Synchronisation sowie die vielen Zwischensequenzen, machen das Spiel zu einem echten Erlebnis!
    Was ich furchtbar finde:
    Story, Charaktere und Charakterentwicklung, Erzählweise und die völlig übertriebene Gewalt. Punkt 1: Die Lieblingsfigur zu Anfang zu töten war völlig krank Aber nein, er wurde nicht nur einfach getötet, er wurde in einer minutenlangen Gewaltorgie, regelrecht Hingerichtet. Mir standen die Tränen in den Augen und ich konnte fast nicht hinsehen... Ja, es sollte polarisieren. Ja, es sollte Hass schüren. Aber hier völlig unangebracht! Das war in etwa so, als hätte man eine Fortsetzung von dem Film Hatchiko gedreht, in der man von der absolut herzergreifenden Beziehung zu seinem Herrchen, von dem der ganze Film gelebt hat, völlig ablässt, den Hund bestialisch hinrichtet und den Zuschauer zwingt, für den Rest des Films, dem Mörder zuzuschauen. Da fehlen mir echt die Worte für... Was mich zum nächsten Punkt bringt... Punkt 2: Charaktere Was ist bloß aus Elli geworden? Das kleine, freche, lebenslustige, liebenswerte Mädchen, ist nun eine emotionslose, kaltblütige Killerin geworden, der es nur um Rache geht... Die Story könnte direkt aus einem Liam Neeson Film entsprungen sein mit dem Unterschied, dass Liam am Schluß zumindest immer seine Rache bekommt. Elli metzelt sich stundenlang fluchend durch endlose Gegnerhorden, um Abby dann am Schluß doch laufen zu lassen... Warum zum Teufel? Schwach, sehr schwach! Abby:
    Kurz gesagt: Ich habe jede Minute Spielzeit mit ihr gehasst. Ich habe sie sogar öfters absichtlich sterben lassen, um irgendwie Befriedigung zu bekommen. Ihre kurze Vorgeschichte und die Rückblende mit ihrem Vater, machen das nicht besser. Es ist einfach eine von unnötigem Hass und Rachegelüsten durchzogene Storyline, die dem ursprünglichen Geist des ersten Teils, völlig zuwider läuft. Rache ist sinnlos? Ach was, Naughty Dog, dass hättet ihr auch nebenbei dem Spieler beibringen können. Aber als tragendes Element für dieses Spiel, völliger Fehlschlag!

    Tommy:
    War Tommy im ersten Teil und zu Anfang des zweiten noch ein liebenswerter, Bodenständiger, logisch handelnder Kerl, mutiert er im letzten Kapitel ebenfalls zu einem, von Rachegelüsten getriebenen Choleriker, der völlig geisteskrank reagiert, als Elli ihm erst ausschlägt, Abby erneut zu suchen. Das widerspricht allem, was Tommy die ganze Zeit ausgemacht hat! Absolut allem. Völlig unlogisch.
    Fazit:
    Alles, was das erste Spiel für mich ausgemacht hat, habt ihr zerstört. Während ich den ersten Teil auch heute noch zum zigsten Mal gerne spiele, mir allein am Schluß mit Joel und Elli ewig die Giraffen vorm Krankenhaus anschauen kann, jede Minute genieße, hat der zweite Teil für mich einen Wiederspielwert von einer glatten Null! Die völlig übertriebene Gewalt tut ihr übriges. Ich habe nichts gegen Gewalt im Gegenteil, die Brutalität im ersten fand ich sehr gut und passte absolut zu der erbarmungslosen Dystopie des Spiels. Aber jetzt? Nach dem brutalen abmetzeln von unzähligen Menschen war ich am Schluß so abgestumpft und es war mir dermaßen gleichgültig, ob jetzt jemand lebt oder stirbt, dass es mir echt schon Angst gemacht hat. Ein Spiel lebt vor allem von der Geschichte. Das Entwicklerteam hat einen echt grandiosen Job gemacht, aber die Storywriter gehören auf der Stelle und ohne Diskussion entlassen! Ihr habt das Andenken des Vorgängers nicht nur mit Füßen getreten, ihr habt ihn erstochen, erschossen, zerhackt, verbrannt und noch auf die Asche gespuckt. Ich bin maßlos enttäuscht und wünschte, ihr hättet nie einen zweiten Teil gemacht. Bestes Beispiel, wie es richtig geht, war Uncharted 4 Lebendige, liebenswerte Charaktere mit Tiefgang, eine grandiose Story und ein absolut tolles Happy-End am Meer... Was will man mehr? Der Wahnsinn! Aber euer eigentliches Meisterwerk, euer Baby, habt ihr im Dreck verrecken lassen! Was soll dieses trostlose Ende? Elli kann keine Gitarre mehr spielen, was sie so sehr geliebt hat, lässt die Gitarre und somit auch Joel hinter sich, Dina hat sie verlassen und sie geht einsam in den Sonnenuntergang... Unfassbar frustrierend!    … Expand

The mixed aspects of this game would be the story as it's either one you're going to either love or hate, personally I loved it for the most part. The cons for me would be that I felt as though the story went on for far to long and I can think of about three times the game could have ended hours before the actual end. The games obviously not perfect but its definitely not a 0 or 4 either. I gave it an 8 because personally I believe the good far outweighs the bad with astronomical highs followed by occasional lows here and there.… Expand

I dont even have a PS pro. What ND may end up doing with the ps5 will be mind boggling. The cutscenes are superbly acted and the art direction and atmosphere is possible the best any videogame has produced. The core gameplay is like the first but simply refined and stretched deeper in various ways to feel fresh. Theres alot that just feels satisying here from on the fly crafting, crunchy headshots from crafted silencers, traversal to even simple things to breaking glass. I spent ages marvelling at just how well the breaking glass mechanic was implemented.

    I like you, was worried it may be a propoganda piece for leftist identity politics, but i gotta say the "anti- woke" have it completley wrong this time around. I think the "event" have them triggered that this game is anti "white-men". Being a white man I honestly have no clue where this.coming from other than the "event" surrounds a "white male" and the game for the most part has you controlling a "not white male". Judge for yourself is all im saying. Tonally i didnt disagree with any story choices, remember this is the series after all that brutally gunned down a 10 year old girl in its opening act. Why is that act in the "event" less "brutal" then what happens at the start? Mob mentality is really mindwashing alot of already angry young men into think they are being personally attacked, when in truth we should be holding up what is essentially free speech. Naughty Dog as is their American right is free to tell whatever story they like. We as gamers should encourage companies to explore places that have never been explored before. Pushing the medium forward and providing us with options to choose whether we want to play or not.

Gameplay is a fun as the last game and an all around improvement. The story is the issue. Thing that made last of us one great was that it was a great story with solid gameplay. This is great gameplay with nonsensical story. Characters that have been in the apocalyptic atmosphere and should be somewhat adapted just act like complete idiots. Personally I believe if you have not played the first game you have a high likelihood to enjoy this game because you won’t know how far the story telling has fallen by comparison. I’ll just offer some advice... Old fans: Don’t buy the game. Save your money and assume the story ended with the first game.
    New fans: I’m sure you can find the first game for cheap. While the mechanics are a downgrade because the game came out years ago.. the story is much better.

    The above text is just my personal take on my experience with game. It is truly my opinion and should not stop you from making your own decision. I’m rating it a 5 out of 10 because creating a functional game earns you a 5 out of 10 in my book. The rest of the points are earned through innovation of mechanics and an excellent story. There weren’t any major innovations to game play in my opinion and the story was jarring and unbelievable to a player that has prior experience and exposure to the characters through the first game.    … Expand

    40% of the game is spent with one of the worst characters ever thought up. This combined with Druckmann's self inserts, characters doing stupid things, and a nonsensical plot, make this game a horrible experience and one incredibly disconnected from everything that made the first game great.

    Naughty Dog killed the story very well, The story is bad and all those 7 years of waiting want for nothing. I was a huge fan of TLOU. but after I played part 2. I am not anymore, I regret buying the game. and I don't care anymore if will be part 3 or not. in mean time, I am not interested in Naughty dog games anymore.

This game is a message and not a game. I didn't play to learn a 20 hour hald assed lesson of "revenge is bad unless you are the villain and next to nothing happens to you" man. I couldn't give less of a **** about the characters if I tried and what happened to ellie and Joel is character assassinations of the highest degree. First Joel gives up his name and trusts some random cult and gets himself killed. A 40 year survivor of the apocalypse is supposed to suddenly become a dumbass to further the plot. Then with ellie she just starts **** turning into this psycotic mess and does a lot of things she wouldn't do. NOBODY WANTED TO PLAY AS ABBY AND NOTHING YOU COULD HAVE DONE WOULD MAKE US EMPATHISE WITH HER. And Jesus Christ don't get me started on the ending. What a **** joke.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I enjoy playing the game for the first time at least for the first half of the game.

    Decisions about Joel's character and his death may be controversial and might be a little bit out of character and not be logical, but I could accept it and they bothered me only a bit. I mean it succeeded making me feel certain emotions as anger sadness and really feel what ellie was going Trough.

    Starting of your journey of revenge somehow never felt satisfying though, because Tommy set off in front of you and you were following his path. As you follow the journey and kill some of main-enemies Abbys friends you find yourself being found by her instead and killing Jesse one of your companions. Now the game somehow starts to lose track of its own story and pacing as you now play the past 3 days again out of Abbys perspective. It takes you about 10-15 hours playing her story just realizing in the end it didn't quite add up something to the plot. It somehow felt like you were going on a never ending side-quest. On her journey you should start to sympathize with her or at least understand her character, opinions and choices she made. Well it might worked for some people but for me it quite didn't. I didn't really care about her story as I could already think that she had her reasons killing Joel and that she too has fears, has friend she likes and has a backstory. Speaking of backstory you have some very well written and beautiful flashbacks both from ellie and Abby. They really did something to the player and brought something to the story as making things clear. But the placement of them throughout the story made you completely lose track of what your goals in the present timeline were. As you come back from a flashback it always was like ok where am I? What is happening now? After completing the 3 days from Abbys perspective and fighting ellie in her hideout, which really hurts. If you think of doing your best to try to kill the character you so much love, I understand what ND was trying to achieve but in this case the gameplay it forces you to play is not what you wanted at this moment. After Abby lets you(ellie) and Dina live the story makes a jump to a farmhouse where Dina and you and her baby JJ live a happy life and enjoy what you have got. The relationship is beautiful and in my opinion the game could have ended right there and it would be a quite acceptable game with only a few issues.

    But someday Tommy shows up who is kind of disabled Trough the encounter with Abby and makes you feel bad for not finishing the job and killing Abby. Ellie doesn't want to and Dina tells Tommy to leave. Ellie wakes up in the night and out of nowhere makes a 180 and switches to the opinion she has to find Abby and kill her. Playing the rest of the game felt pointless and not necessary as you again hunt down Abby to find her in a bad condition and fighting her. In the fight she bites off 2 of your fingers but you still manage to win the battle. As you are drowning her ellie sees a memory of Joel which leads her to let Abby alive and spare her. At that point I didn't even care anymore about what is happening to Abby. She could be alive or dead and it wouldn't change anything. But to be honest it would be logical to kill her after a minute before she bit off 2 of your fingers and the memory of Joel should give you the last shot to actually killing her cause you can't see him nomore cause of her. She is the reason for his death You get back to the farmhouse to find it abandoned. You try to play the guitar in memory of Joel but you can't cause of your 2 missing fingers. Ellie leaves the house ending up with nothing at all. Which is not fair in my opinion. The story was hell of emotional but had to much stuff going on about new characters that didn't develop throughout the game. Characters hadn't backstorys and nothing that makes them rememberable. Then they get killed in pathetic ways and the game never mentions them ever again as if they didn't exist. It is emotional for sure It looks beautiful for sure The gameplay is good but only a little improved from the first game which wasn't a problem for me at all cause I really like it. The story is what is the gamebreaker here. Characters are not well written and do illogical decisions. It feels all over the place, loses its pacing and feels forced. It's like the developer did this. We have a certain idea. To achieve this idea we force characters to do that and this. When in my opinion it should be like this. The character is in this situation. How would this character react and how would it affect the story and what would be the consequences of his or her reaction. Would be a lot better and would feel much more logical and realistic. You can say so much more but I only got 5000 digits so all in all. Gameplay 8/10

    This result was obvious since it aimed too much to the point that the creators probably forgot the existence of their own previous creation and the reason why it was well received in the first place.

    This game will remain most famously for “dragging all people who are involved in-game and out-game to exhaustion.”    … Expand

    I DONOT understand why Abby kill Joel so early.
    -> Since Joel dead early of the story, I CANNOT focus on Abby. However, you want to focus and understand Abby. And Joel is the main character of previous series. However, Abby who whole new character killed Joel with golf club. And Joel's dead was NOT a noble and was NOT sacrifice for Ellie. You think this is make sense??

    2.
    I DONOT understand why Ellie DIDN'T KILL Abby.
    And why Ellie recalled Joel who play the guitar when she almost killed Abby?
    -> If you want to express emptiness and meaningless of revenge, you MUST express after killing Abby first.
    If you intend the relation between Abby and Lev to be similar Joel and Ellie's relationship, and if this is why Ellie didn't kill Abby, this game is JUST PIECE OF NUCLEAR WASTE. Relationship between Abby and Lev is NOT parents and children and this relation EVEN NOT a lover.

    3.
    Abby got somebody but Ellie lost everyone.
    -> Abby killed Joel and lost friends, but she got Lev.
    However, Ellie lost father, friend, lover. And she lost fingers to play the guitar which only left connection to Joel.

    Ellie DIDN'T revenge but lost more than Abby who did revenge and whole new character. KEKW



    Conclusion :
    Neil Druckmann stuck in his own thoughts. So he didn't think about completeness of the game and deceive previous series players.
    Considering graphic team and actors, I give 1/10, not 0    … Expand

If you’re on the fence about buying this just do yourself a favour and bite the bullet. This is one of the most enjoyable, addicting gaming experiences I’ve had in years. When I had to put it down for breaks I was thinking about it in my free time. I’m 30 this year and find it hard to stick out games and finish them completely but this masterpiece plays out like a 30+ hour **** movie. It’s tense, emotional, and just **** fun. I almost cried twice during it. I spent so much time just walking around slowly enjoying the games beautiful environments. If you own a playstation you owe it to yourself to see the limits of what this generation is capable of.

    My only recommendation is play on one of the last two difficulty settings to get the true experience of how intense and desperate these characters stories are. Easily one of my favourite games this gen.    … Expand

    One of the best game I’ve played in years! I stayed away from any spoilers and leaks prior to playing and have certainly benefited from doing so. Very unfortunate that this game is getting review bombed from people who haven’t put in the time and effort that such an emotional journey requires.

The excessively radical ideas are forced to be implanted into the player. The game content can only be said to be an enhanced version of the generation. The game screen is not very beautiful, a game that failed badly, not suitable for purchase. Mm… Expand

    This has to be the most disappointed I’ve have ever been with a video game. The last of us part one was in my opinion the BEST game ever made. From the game play to the stories to the characters. Ever aspect of that game came together beautifully. Tlou2 felt thrown together to appease a small group of individuals, Piggy backing of it’s predecessor.

    We spend the game being beaten over the head with the notion that violence causes more violence, and revenge is a terrible cycle.

    Then the game ends with Abby getting her revenge and riding off into the sunset with her best friend. Meanwhile Ellie denies herself revenge and loses everything, even two fingers.    … Expand

    The Last of Us (original) is one of my top five all-time favorites, which makes this the most disappointing game I've ever played. I could spend all week listing out my grievances in essay form, but it's already been said: the writing is simply atrocious in this sequel. There's no soul here. Just a boring, contrived plot driven for 27 hours by purely logistical and expository dialogue.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I love the first game, and have replayed it many, many times. Unfortunately, tLoU2 is a complete mockery of its lovingly crafted predecessor. The story is poorly written, it's shoved to bursting with hollow, unlikeable characters and tried to make you regret EVER enjoying the first game, because apparently, everything we did was abhorrent. Abby's inclusion as a playable protagonist was unneeded and insulting, and she would have worked far better as the antagonist. I don't need to say anything on Joel, as everyone agrees what happened was disgusting. This was an insult to the first game and to all of the fans who loved it. I hated this game, and I hope the people who worked on it are ashamed of themselves. Because we are very disappointed in you. This useless pander pron gets a very well deserved 0.… Expand

Considero que el juego se adapta muy bien a la historia que se quiere contar, a darle a entender al jugador el realismo implementado y los eventos que marcan la aventura del protagonista. Por otro lado siento que se toma muy enserio la temática de una mayor exploración en la ciudad de Seattle y las perspectivas que se toman desde el hecho de dudar si somos los buenos o los malos… 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]
