    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. O jogo tinha tudo para um desenrolar magnifico, mas matam o Joel do nada, um cara que era desconfiado de tudo e todos, e do nada o jogo vira uma onda de vingança parecendo o GOW, tirando que eles deixaram o jogo pesado demais com isso não da nem vontade de querer jogar de novo, forçam muito o emocional do jogador, estende de mais o jogo e tipo os gráficos estão lindos mesmo, mas é só isso, vingança você vê em todos os games e é bem comum isso, quem é fan boy vai dizer que o jogo tá ótimo mas não ta a historia é vazia, sem um proposito a mais, só vingança, e com partes que você cansa ate de jogar que é a parte da Abby, se fosse pra ser assim o jogo nem tinham q ter sido feito, cagaram totalmente com a desenvoltura dele, espero que não tenha parte 3 por que ele não teria mais o que conta por que todos os personagens que a gente amava morreram de formas revoltantes.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After 7 years of awaiting this game's release saying I'm disappointed is an understatement to how this game let me down. The graphics were amazing and that's the only thing that was good about this game. The story lacked and everything about it screamed that this isn't the last of of us. Killing off Joel in the beginning of the game was a slap to the face of people that enjoyed the first game. I don't know who or how these decisions came to be but this game has let so many down and in all honesty naughty dog should feel let down as well, you guys and girls have decided that you didn't care for your fans and went with such a negative turn that this game needs to be thrown away and started again. The only way to save this is to make amends and to release a new last of us that we all deserve. I wont give this game a zero because that would be wrong but a solid 1 is what it deserves. It now gets a zero for not letting me post my review. Good job. Expand

    I'm only about 5 hours into the game and it has made me emotional already. It plays are your heart strings in so many different ways. But like the first one. This is a game where u don't make choices... It's not an open sandbox. The game guides you along a well paced and we'll told story. Choice and gameplay come in the action scenes and exploring for loot. But the seamless blend of storyI'm only about 5 hours into the game and it has made me emotional already.

I know this game was going to be good with the how to shoot tutorial. it's really simple but they made you have a snowball fight with children to learn the controls of a meaning guiding navigating. to have such a light-hearted moment and such a heavy game and to use that as training tutorial that made sense in the story I knew I was in. I'm not too far and I've only played the game for about 5-6 hours song about a fifth of the way through but if you like the first game I think you're going to love this.

    UPDATED: I FINISHED THE GAME AND... I still loved ITM it fell a little shy of the first game. But I enjoyed it the story. The big leak I think was warranted and added so much to the story and messages

    This game is a masterpiece of visuals, game play, and most importantly it tells a story that will resonate with me forever.
    I have not played so many hours of a game in such a short period of time in years and the main reason I marathon played the game is that I was eager to find out where the story was going and I wan't to make sure that I finished it before it ended up being spoiled online.

    The Last of Us 2 is the worst game I've ever had the pleasure of not playing. It fails to live up to it's predecessor in every single way, especially the story. This game is not just disrespectful to the franchise and the fans, but also to the gaming industry as a whole. We're better than this. Quite possibly the worst AAA game of all time.

    In-your-face political propaganda is merely icing on top of a very disappointing and poorly written story. Which in a game series built around storytelling is pretty bad. This game shouldn't have happened.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Acabo de terminar el juego y lo primero que he hecho ha sido ver puntos de vista. Puedo sacar de esto que hay dos bandos 1 - Los que critican su historia
    2- Los que la defienden

    Yo me posiciono en el segundo punto y es que, cómo no defenderlo puesto que no hay nadie realmente bueno aquí, de echo, si tuviéramos que poner a alguien como malo sería a Joel puesto que él cometió el crimen más alto en contra de la humanidad. Tanto Abby como Ellie son movidas por el odio y la venganza, y finalmente Ellie toma la decisión de no matarla porque no iba a llenar ese vacío que se suponía que le iba a dar el matar a Abby, de echo, perdió todo en el momento en el que salió de su casa dejando a Dina atrás. Ni los malos son tan malos ni los buenos son tan buenos. Sin duda uno de los mejores juegos que he jugado en toda mi vida y el más humano que creo que jamás voy a jugar. Gracias Naughty Dog

Но весь гнев, агрессию и злобу Элли я полномтю прочувствовал играя и убивая всех кто был на моем пути. Концовка спорная хотелось убить Эбби всю игру и меня бесило играть за Эбби и бить Элли . Жаль Элли которая потеряла Дину и JJ ( и два пальца кст) из-за мести которою не осуществила, если бы она не пошла в санту барбару то Эбби умерла а в Элли осталась бы семья и был какой-то хотя бы хеппи енд.

    Great game. Loved it. But you are not ready for this conversation. Once you understand where stories are going to in video games, you'll look back at this game with other eyes. It is just such a ballsy story, so surprisingly different from spected and ambicious as well. The rest, is perfection.

The game is a direct outcome of Joel‘s choices that he made in the first game. now the first one is definitely I think the best one but the second one is nonetheless amazing I’m loving playing it and I can’t wait to go back home from work and keep playing it like every day.
    Please don’t listen to the haters here because they just thought they going to get some thing that they wanted and they didn’t and some of those ratings came like an hour after the game was released so it doesn’t even make sense, the game is like 25 hours at least so I wouldn’t trust that. I would trust players like me Who are playin it already and I’m enjoying it so so much trust me you want to play this game, you need to play this game.

Although there are many reviews claiming that they don't even care about the SJW nonsense and their negative take is actually based on the fact that naughty dog destroyed character and created a terrible story, however, these two points are completely mutually inclusive in this case, the character was destroyed and the story was of poor quality BECAUSE OF the politics, not in spite of them of apart from them. Killing a main character in this case is SJW politics, as it serves to advance and support the SJW agenda, these points cannot logically be separated. In this particular case, you can not say you are not concerned about the SJW politics but you are concerned in the disrespect of character as the disrespect of character is because of SJW politics. If they'd killed him for another reason your point would be valid and sound, but as they did not, its not valid or sound. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Graphics are good , but was not impressed after ff7 remake appeared , it surprised me how a AAA game could be 30 gigs only. But I’m ok with that.I was able to enjoy visually Mechanics pretty much the same old naughty dog style , now you have to upgrade everything in order to be functional on your style( silent , gunsmith, bare fist, or artifact builder) 3 new fungus zombies. Which is ok .( the same model appears every time , but i can manage)

    Soundtrack - master piece 10 out of ten . Good job there.

    Now the story , the first game was about zombies , but was mainly about the unconditional love that a father has towards his daughter . And how this can be so strong , that a father would sacrifice the humanity’s fate. In this particular case , Joel killed 400+ (If not more ) people in order to save Ellie , and old man who is experienced and passed through storms and adversity for years. It was a brilliant character with a strong development , which caused a bond with several players. And that’s what we loved about the first game. Seems to me like a lazy approach , you have such a charismatic character, and you want to introduce the new Eli ( which lost her style, and the writers also ditched her development) and Abby which is an OP character( kills zombies with her fists WTF). And in order to these protagonists to shine , the easiest resort is to kill Joel and the beginning of the game. Instead of developing the characters correctly, so you can empathize with them. The firefly connection is magnificent , and I even understand the righteousness of killing Joel. But you decide to tear Joel apart in a very simple and stupid way, at the beginning of the game to avoid that time for writing and development, you decide that Joel has to be killed kill by some random ( not so random ) girl on steroids and prolong the game in a repetitive way , in order to introduce all diversity quota. In order for your other characters to shine( lev, Abby , Jesse )you decide to kill the pace by adding a plot twist of the plot twist of the plot twist , you are about to arrive to a place and there’s always something that interrupts you such as a fall , soldiers , clickers etc. And it’s always the same pattern.

    I don’t mind that Elli is lesbian , or Abby looks like a man , or the fact that you completely ignored tommy to avoid complexity. What I do care is about the characters development , and how they are driven. It’s not that Abby pursues for revenge( loved the love triangle ) , it is how unbelievable the character is due to bad writing. I liked the end though , Made me cry like a baby.

    This is an insult to fans of the original. Not only did Naughty Dog used false advertising to make Joel seem as the main protagonist(or at least have a QUARTER of the total screen time), they manipulated the trailer footage to make Joel look younger. They basically fooled all of us, Joel was the selling point, and they KNEW IT.
    Also, take political stuff OFF video games. Push an agenda elsewhere.

    This isn’t a 0 because the game itself is a terrible game (though it is terrible in many ways). If it was just bad then it would at least merit a 2 or 3 purely on its technical achievements and sound design. Its a 0 because of how disrespectful it is to the masterpiece that came before it, and it is also so spiteful to the audience, as if it’s trying to give fans a crash course on how to ruing a legacy. I don’t have to go into detail about what exactly is wrong with this game, that would just be another drop in the ocean of people on the internet explaining this unholy mess. I’m writing this for every normal person considering of spending their hard earned money on this: don’t. Go on YouTube and watch the thousands of videos explaining why this game fails as a whole. The lesson is flat and childish. The game tortures you with its characters and payoffs. It actively tries to get you to stop playing. I don’t even care enough to elaborate , I want to stop talking about this. Off the top of my head I can give you 20 better ways the story could have gone. At the end of the day, this game makes you sad not because of the story, but because you know that the future of this franchise we all hold so dear to our hearts is irrevocably changed for the worse. TL;DR: go play metro exodus or horizon zero dawn. I wish I was someone who read a review like this before I spent money on this.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The last of us part 2 is just a **** masterpiece.

    People are straight out review bombing the game without reason. With one hour straight into the game you get hit by one of the most cruel deaths you can ever get. The game creates the feeling of hate towards Abby since hour one. As the game progresses you start to see how Ellie recklessly goes into a path of revenge, transitioning from the sweet innocent girl we were introduced in the game we all agree we love, TLOU. Ellie starts to become a savage and lose this humanity she was characterized of, but she doesn’t quite lose it, she is filled with regret, regret towards not being in good terms with Joel, regret of torturing someone else, killing someone who is pregnant, she is scared because she is actually alone. The moment Joel gets shot with that shotgun, Ellie loses absolutely everything. In game one after Ellie runs away, in a very emotional scene she transmits to Joel how she has lost everything and how the only person she has is him, and in fact it is true. Everyone who is trashing the game talks about the dysfunctional relationship between Ellie and Dina, and how it makes the story trash, this is on purpose, Ellie does not care about Dina, Jesse, Tommy, etc. All she cared for was Joel, and the game transmits that in a cruel yet beautiful way, the game makes you feel lost in anger next to Ellie.
    Then the gameplay, which we all must agree is way better than the first, since it is fast paced, scary, dark, gruesome and flexible. You literally can choose if you want to engage in a fight or just straight up skip it. The accessibility the graphics, everything gameplay wise is just gorgeous and distinct. Back to my point, when you start playing with Abby everyone wants to delete the application, and I get it, I did want that to. When I started to play with Abby I did not give a **** about her dad, I tried making her die multiple times to see if the game ended, etc. I was **** pissed. Ten hours after playing with Abby I was **** smiling, Abby portrays the female version of the story of Joel and Ellie, and how she moved on from revenge, she got what she wanted by killing Joel but at the same time she was as humane as it was possible in an apocalyptic world, Abby let Ellie and Tommy leave, her thing was with Joel and Joel only. The game shifts the character of evil to our loved character Ellie, she goes on a path of absurd and obscure torture just to hurt Abby. The game makes you hate yourself for putting yourself in the shoes of Abby, when Jesse dies and you fight with Ellie in the theater scene you don’t want them to fight, why? Because you don’t want to kill Ellie and that is obvious, at the end of the fight Ellie is **** trashed and Abby proves to be the bigger person by just leaving all of them there. I was scared when I saw the scene of the house, I said what the **** is this bull**** and when I see tommy I knew **** was going down, skipping all of this, you get to the big showdown, all cut up Ellie literally bleeding out, it all just feels empty, cruel, you tie down Abby and you blackmail her into fighting you by putting a knife to Lev’s throat which is the symbolic representation of Ellie in chapter one, the fight starts and man, the **** scenery, it looked like I was fighting in the octagon of hell, beating the **** out of each other, biting extremities, etc. While Ellie was drowning Abby while in tears I just didn’t want to keep pressing square, it felt wrong, Ellie was not Ellie anymore, and Abby ended up being any other character trying to survive and find justice by their own hands in the post apocalyptic world. As Ellie plays Days of you and me on the guitar with the missed strings my heart just broke, Ellie fulfilled her biggest fear we learn in game one while she talks with Sam, she was scared of ending up alone, and she was alone since hour one of the game, no one mattered except Joel, as we see the last flashback, we see how Ellie is not mad at Abby for killing her, she is mad with herself, for not forgiving Joel during his time alive, I hated this game, I hated myself and ended up hating Ellie, and that is what makes this game a masterpiece.

    (Btw, yes, **** SJW and the agenda, but somehow the game did not force it, kinda did not like how Lev was trans, but it does not damage at all the Beauty mixed with darkness The Last of Us is about).

    All those parts are undeniable very good. Its top notch. Sure the controls sometimes feel weird but they do in most of the games. It would be unfair to say this game isnt up to date in terms of all those points I mentioned.

    Cons:
    - story
    - character design
    - character development
    - plot holes

    So, even with all the pros this game is really really bad. It makes NO sense that Ellie act how she acts in certain parts of the game but that isnt even the biggest thing about why its bad.
    The reason is: character development.
    If you kill one of the most beloved characters early in the game (Joel) and want to bring in new main playable characters like Abby, you HAVE to bring WAY more backstory in order to make the player feel with her.
    I mean she KILLED Joel!
    How do you make the player like her? Bring more and more backstory before she does that. Let the players play 2-10h as Abby when she was a child or whatever. The backstory of her is basically told in 10minutes and then her dad is being killed. Thats it? And now I have to feel with her and understand why she killed Joel?
    Hell no!
    That is weak story telling. Really really weak.

    Then there are all the other new characters. Nobody is likeable. Like really. They all feel empty. They are only shells without any meaning.

    This game is just bad. Do yourself a favor and dont buy it. The reviews the journalists wrote are either bought by Sony or ND or are heavily politicly influenced. Sad thing is: because of that same journalists will most likely make this game GOTY. What a joke.

    Safe your money and buy something else.

    And last but not least: this is technically a very good game but the story/characters is/are SO bad it just doesnt matter how well the rest is done.

    You want a good revenge story? Watch "Oldboy" then you know how to make a good revenge story that shocks everybody to their core.

    This game right here? Its garbage.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I believe you have a different experience from playing rather watching walkthroughs. Cause playing as those characters, in those heartbreaking moments, it does have an impact on your perception. Even though there’s certain characters you would rather not play as. But makes you not necessarily empathize with that character but the situation she in and the people around.I really do like playing this game I know people didn’t like the fact that you play as one specific character but it those help see other characters around her and Ellie perception .You see two side of the coin both which is neither good or bad. It a interesting concept. And it’s a game that requires you really to look further into the point of the ending to eventually understand. Some people like games with clear answers, ending, And it’s alright if you do but you might not think it had great ending in that point. Also they wouldn’t give the effort to develop a character if they didn’t had the intention of re-using her or Ellie for future projects.But I think it’s genius ending for a dlc or potentially new game after this game. Also i should mention the mechanic of this game. It’s was so cool and amazing you get to play the guitar, growl on the floor and simply cause it was easy to manage for a ps4 imagine in ps5.The art concept is exceptional, beautiful. There are very amazing views and at one part you get to experience fear from failing hahaha.

    (my opinion but with some spoilers Part 2)
    However i would put Abby story first then lead up to Joel death. Many seem to over look the ending but it actually very well written. Because it come back to seeing to parallel between characters. A revenge story that ends up losing themselves on the way. It shows that not everyone manage to feel relief and at peace once looking for revenge. It shows that their consequences on making the “wrong choice” henceforth Dina left. Plus on the first sneak peak at the game Ellie was sing a song. In my opinion, in those lyrics, she mentions that “ I can’t walk on the path of the right because I’m wrong” which means how she can feel satisfied ir live on with her life if she knew what she will do isn’t gonna make her be better Knowing her killing Abby wasn’t gonna removed the pain and trauma. And of course it not the same story as the first game because it a different protagonist, with different values,interests and personality. Which make total sense why she did kill Abby. Joel would kill her with no hesitation. Ellie has and always had different opinions, value and morals as Joel.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First off this review will probably contain spoilers because I'm going to try and cover all of the idiotic points/facts that people are construing from small articles/reviews they've read that they are using to fabricate their own reviews without actually knowing/experiencing the context of this game.

    Second opening point, if you gave this game a 0/10 you don't deserve to have a login to any review site because if you ACTUALLY played the game and somehow were able to overlook captivating views, scenes, character models, emotions, and lighting (which I'll admit wasn't always perfect) then you most certainly already proven you're a troll. I will say it's OK to not be happy about the ending, but until you've got the balls to make your own game, you can't continue to act like a child that didn't get their way. And if you didn't happen to fully comprehend the points given, the character development that each character went through to get to the end of the game and understand why they made the decisions they made, then maybe story games aren't for you. That's OK too.

    The story arcs it's way through Ellie's revenge driven explosion of violence, through Abby's choices of siding with her faction, or doing what she thinks is right. The Seraphites are a radical group by most accounts, but you find out that it was the Wolves that broke the treaty which ultimately led to Isaac declaring full scale war on the Seraphites island.

    Lev and Yara bring redemption into the fold to show you that Abby was fueled by hate and rage for the death of her father, but isn't a bad person at heart. She's never tried to do the wrong thing or hurt someone without good reason or in response to a threat. The whole side arc of the Seraphites was to introduce a radical spiritual group and show how bad things have gotten during these apocalyptic times.

    Quick touch on Lev, some people are quite literally BUTTHURT because Lev is a transgender character. This is a non-issue, Lev and Abby dance around the subject for maybe 30 seconds and you never hear anymore until later you find out that Lev cut his hair like the "other men" because he wanted to be a warrior after he had been chosen to be a young wife to one of the Elders. You get in total maybe 5 minutes worth of dialogue around the transgender nature of Lev. Gender itself is never even really spoken of during any of the Lev/Yara story events. Commenting or being mad about this subject just shows which people actually played the game and which didn't.

    It's insane to think that people are mad about there being an Ellie girl/girl scene even though she's been gay for the last 10 years. Which once again shows the people leaving those kinds of remarks didn't even play or pay attention during the first game/prequel story.

    If you don't think after living in a thriving community, raising your "daughter", in a safe and ever-expanding environment that you don't think Joel could have a change of heart you don't have any credibility for ripping on the story of this game. The sequence of Joel encountering Abby was one where they didn't have many options at all for where to go for safety, Joel has never been heartless and yet people act like he was supposed to just blow her brains out when he saw Abby about to get eaten alive. Time has passed, people change, hearts change.

    This game like Death Stranding has a lot of negativity around it simply because it has such a passionate player base. Most of the negative reviews (90% or more confirmed by multiple sites) haven't even finished the game, a lot haven't even played it I'm sure (troll accounts) it'll have a lot of reviews wiped away here soon to balance the score. It truly is a 9+/10 game for almost anyone that enjoys video games.

    The only warning I give is that it is very triggering, it's violent to an extent that you rarely see in video games but it portrays a lot of raw emotion in the moment that you hardly ever really feel in games like you do in this one.

    This is a harsh world, post-apocalypse, no cure, varying factions where safe land and supplies are scarce. Nothing you see, or experience is out of the realm of possibility, the game takes you into the extremes and they don't waver on taking chances to show you how cruel this world can be.

    Main thing I ask, if you're a fan, if you love video games, you're better off not being here or knowing anything going in, but if you've made it this far, this isn't the only review you've read which means you probably already know too much. I went in with no spoilers, no reviews, and no expectations, and I was pleasantly surprised, if you bypass everything on the internet I'm sure you will too.

    Will edit later, I typed this over the course 10 hours while doing a cold air intake install and some yard work so my train of thought definitely bounced around a bit. GG.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I loved the first part very much, and the first half of the second part is great as well. BUT!

    First of all, the gameplay is nearly as great as the graphics and the sound. Naughty Dog has clearly made another game with a great atmosphere. However, it continues the story of part 1 which had above all a fantastic story and made it easy for players to build up an emotionally intense connection to the main characters. This is continued by the developers in the first half of the game, but then they betray their concept. Spoiler:

    Naughty Dog do everything to develop hate for Abby on the player's side. In my opinion, they do that much too well in view of the second half of the game. We have travelled with Joel and Ellie all the time, and there will be few players of the first part who don't love these characters. Now we must watch Abby kill Joel in the most cruel way. That's okay in matters of storytelling and a very shocking scene. But it prevents the player from developing any positive feelings for Abby, and now I have played her for many hours... I do not know how this is to work. The second half of the story is very much in lack of emotions because of this problem. I hope Abby will die in the end, but making her a playable character through several chapters was a fault. Even the try to make the player understand her feelings does not work with me. The flashbacks are made nicely, but they cannot wake a real feeling of pity for Abby. We have first met her when she was rescued by Joel and gratefully tortured him to death. And now we are supposed to feel with her? That does not work, Naughty Dog! You cannot do something like that in a game that lives so much of its story. I'd like to know if ANYONE enjoyed playing Abby after Joel's death.
    Furthermore, I just talked (playing Ellie again) to Tommy who had been shot intohis head by Abby before. Why does he survive this as if it never had happened, while an arrow in his leg still has so big influence on his walking???? VERY poor storytelling in my opinion.

    TLOU2 is a very good game in the first half but quite a fail in the second. Abby finally develops some character when she saves Lev and Ayra. However, she then even betrays her own friends. And this character is to be played about 50% of the game... Almost worse is the "deus ex machina" Tommy on the farm; he really should not have survived this or at least not be ableto travel any more.
    I only hope the ending will be better and Ellie gets her revenge. I wouldnt be surprised if Ellie refuses to kill Abby in the last minute or even gets killed herself. The story of this game is just as awful as the first part's one was great.

    What I liked: The visuals on this game are amazing, while good for myself the animations are out of sync.
    I did not like the gameplay controls, but a future patch could address the bugs.

    So far have only made it to around 8 hours of gameplay, before listing it on facebook to sell, as I could not get a refund. Too early to comment on the story, so far it wasn't bad, just meh.

    Ultimately it was the over realistic violence and boredom that led to this review.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I overall enjoyed the Last Of Us Part 2, however i feel it has some flaws that make it far from a 10. The attempt to make you sympathise with Abby, (i understood her perspective) doesn't work all that well. It leaves players having to slug through her section of the story when it has a lot to offer in terms of its gameplay and story elements. I also dislike the back and fourths the game provides with Ellie constantly changing her mind between revenge and moving on. I feel the story could of worked much better had they re-sequenced the events that occur. The ending was also somewhat disappointing, I wouldn't call it a bad ending but it just wasn't what I'd of done. We see Ellie learn that no matter what she does she can't bring Joel back and will instead leave Lev in a similar position to her own (without her mentor/parental figure).

    On the bright side, I really enjoyed some of the new gameplay mechanics and thought they added a good variety to the game. However I felt there were to many resources making the game quite easy (I played on Hard). I looked at the implementation of safes in which you had to find the code in a creative way.
    I also really liked the new characters (especially Dina) and enjoyed Ellies relationships with them.
    The enemies in this game are extremely interesting (especially the Scars) and had me wanting to learn more, I also found myself reading every note I found which rarely happens in games. However I would of liked some more backstory on the Scars

    Overall I feel Naughty Dog did a brilliant job with the last of us in many aspects of the game, from gameplay to visuals. Although the story fell short leaving me upset that after all Ellie had endured she lost everything she loved.

The game opens to an absolutely tragic and one of the worst creative decisions in video game history, words are literally not enough to explain the devastation without going into spoilers. You are then literally forced to turn against the characters you love so much from the first, and absolutely destroy the memories of these cherished characters in the most inhuman, vile, despicable, disgusting ways imaginable.

    Onto the pros, exceptional environments, the graphics are right at the top and look simply stunning, animations are top notch.

    All of this though is absolutely meaningless as your soul will be snatched from weak narrative and a disgraceful story. Anyone who even has a ounce of respect and admiration for the original I’m literally begging you do not buy this and save your money please. If you want to be utterly devastated and left depressed while thoughts of what you’ve had to endure linger in your mind a long while after completion then go right ahead and buy this shambolic vile piece of media. I’ve genuinely never been left feeling so depressed and empty from any form of media whether film, music etc. I’m not joking and being deadly serious, you will leave this game feeling suicidal.

    Great game, graphics are lifelike. I feel that the story could have been better. But not a deal breaker.

    Luckily didnt see spoilers or get influenced by other people before I played this and made up my own mind. In my opinion the games story reflects the saying "If you're going after revenge then you may start digging two graves" and it does this beautifully. Theres also a difference between playing a game yourself to the end and watching someone else playing it, you dont get as invested.

I docked it a point because controls and camera can sometimes be a pain. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. O jogo tem uma historia muito boa e traz uma jogabilidade incrivel.No jogo,você controla Ellie,que dês de o primeiro jogo,tinha Joel como seu "pai"ou eterno parceiro.Depois dos fatos do primeiro jogo,Ellie vê a brutal morte de Joel e fica desesperada em busca de uma longa vingança contra Abby(a assassina) e seus amigos.
    O jogo,leva você em uma grande aventura que traz um grande sentimento de vingança e que te faz cada vez mais querer matar a Abby.Mas,o jogo coloca você em uma gameplay duvidosa,onde você tambem joga com a Abby e tenta saber a sua parte da história,onde o jogo tenta mostrar que ela não é bem uma vilã,fazendo elas duas lutarem entre si e terem uma luta mortal pelas duas terem matados colegas de equipe tanto da Abby,tanto da Ellie.O jogo consegue ter um sentimento de raiva e de muito suspense e vários sustos,mesmo nao sendo exatamente um jogo de survival horror.
    Para mim,por mais de o jogo ter lacrações uma hora ou outra,não justifica o fato do jogo ter uma baixa nota de comunidade,sendo que as lacrações não terem importância na história,e sim na personalidade de cada jogador.Também muitos jogadores não gostaram do fato do Joel morrer de uma forma tão do nada e muito triste e ao mesmo tempo que te da uma raiva imensa.Eu acho que a morte do Joel,por mais de ser triste e no sense,apenas intensifica a história e a vontade de ter uma vingança contra Abby,afinal o jogo se passa apenas pelo Joel morrer de uma forma escrota e triste.Eu acho que é um grande candidato ao GOTY esse ano,espero ter ajudado alguém que estava em duvida de comprar o jogo ou não entedeu todo esse hate que pessoal deixou no jogo.

    Jogo voltado para o publico LGBT, a primeira parte foi muito superior, esse ganha apenas em gráficos (menos nas texturas) e tamanho do jogo, mas a história é super clichê, rasguei dinheiro com esse jogo.

    Ruined the series. This game is total trash! This game was a flat out cash grab, made off the back of its predecessor.

    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]
