    Bueno para empezar por partes, lo primero es pedir respeto al estudio naughty dog porque se han tirado 6 o 7 años para brindarnos este juego, luego todo esto de que es propaganda progre o lgtb es absurdo tan solo los inicios del juego tienen un poco de picante en ese aspecto, luego yo soy el primero que soy fan de Joel como personaje y creo que podrían haber tratado su muerte de otraBueno para empezar por partes, lo primero es pedir respeto al estudio naughty dog porque se han tirado 6 o 7 años para brindarnos este juego, luego todo esto de que es propaganda progre o lgtb es absurdo tan solo los inicios del juego tienen un poco de picante en ese aspecto, luego yo soy el primero que soy fan de Joel como personaje y creo que podrían haber tratado su muerte de otra manera aparte de eso la historia es simplemente venganza.. ya esta ,que esta mal contada pues bueno cada uno tiene su opinión pero yo creo que no es tan mala como dicen.. Y bueno en cuanto a gameplay es bastante bueno tiene mejoras respecto al 1 y esta bastante bien gráficamente es impecable el diseño de niveles me ha gustado hay mucha exploración y plataformas rollo uncharted...una cosa que me ha decepcionado un poco es la ia sobretodo de los humanos no ha mejorado tanto respecto al 1 pero bueno se disfruta igual.. en fin el juego es muy bueno en líneas generales se merece un 9 sólido. no es perfecto por lo tanto no se merece un 10 pero esoty seguro que han hecho el juego con mucho cariño para los fans si disfrutaste el 1 este te va encantar si dejamos a unlado el tema de la muerte de Joel.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Gostei do jogo. Em minha opinião, ele exige maturidade para desconstruir a visão de personagens heroicos. Pessoal mais novo quer apenas histórias com destaques heroicos e situações de quase-morte, onde os personagens só se fortalecem com situações de perigo. No caso do jogo, a morte de um dos personagens principais choca, mas é coerente com uma possível realidade apocalíptica.

    Essa galerinha que está achando ruim, em minha opinião, é a mesma que acha que, em um apocalipse zumbi, sairia mantando vários zumbis com pistola, rifle, etc. Mas na verdade, se isso realmente acontecesse, só teriam, malemá, uma faca de churrasco ou um martelo encontrado na caixa de ferramentas do pai.    … Expand

We waited this to fulfill our longing but you killed main character third hour of game. OK, you can kill main character but it shouldn't be easy like that, eventually he is the master of this environment, era. In addition, you introduced us new characters but really are we supposed to sympathize Abby? She was cruel. We passed all places to kill Abby and we mercied at the end. This is **** There was no point it is just like nothing happened. We killed all those people for nothing. I gave 4 points for gameplay and graphics.… Expand

Those who dislike it are mad that it treats what the last game "built" as disposable; they seem to miss that this is exactly the point. This game provides an honest and bleak window into the fallibility of human decision making and the grave consequences of violent revenge. It reminds us that ethical nuance renders clear moral judgment extremely difficult in most cases. It offers a portrait of the frailty of life and the uncertainty of anything good. This game did not make me happy--it made me quite angry, in fact--but I applauded its ability to do so. Its unforgiving, unapologetic narrative proclaims in no uncertain terms that the world owes us nothing, and that the "good guys" can't win every time. It does this in beautiful, heart-wrenching fashion. But I have to take a point off because there was no option to turn off the ridiculously annoying film grain filter.… Expand

    1. Bad story telling
    2.Gameplay elements outdated as well as strange AI behavior
    3. forcing players to play as someone they hate for 10 hours
    4.JOEL DEAD IN FIRST 2 HOURS
    5 overall forced LGBT content that in reality was used as a selling point.
    6 Strange and unusual choices by developers
    7 many game breaking bugs and glitches
    8 the way they deceived fans by including Joel in scenes from trailers that do not exist in the actual game.
    I have nothing against LGBT people however it is clear to myself and others that it is not trying to normalise these people and was instead a way for Naughty Dog to gain interest and respect from their fans.

For naughty dog and Neil druckman to ruin this series with this awful story is DISGRACEFUL. They let politics intervene with the amazing relationship of Joel and ellie naughty dog you should be ashamed graphics and gameplay is good.

Almost all locations can be cleaned by shooting opponents if you do not miss to often (passed on an average difficulty level) Closer to the middle of the game there is a feeling that you are watching an uninteresting series and are already ready to quit, but still you want to find out what happened in the end since you already started.

La forma tan malamente estructurada que está contada la historia, los excesos de flashbacks y, obviamente, el extraño final. Es el primer juego en muchos años que me ha dejado... vacío por dentro (el último fue bioshock infinite). Sé que la historia era oscura y eso me aumentó el hype, pero no puedo obviar el hecho de su final. Después de lo que Abby le hizo a Joel, ¿Ellie deja viva a Abby? Entiendo que es para cortar el circulo de venganza. Pero en primer lugar, ¿de qué sirvió ir a Santa Barbara para perdonarle al final la vida a Abby? En mi opinión, Ellie merecía un final más "feliz" o al menos igual de agridulce como en el primero, (o al menos que ambas muriesen, ya que estamos, incluso me lo esperaba más) pero es que este final no es, ni llega a serlo. La sensación de vacío que llevo desde que lo he terminado no me deja y me frustra.
    Gráficamente es lo mejor que he visto junto a RDR2, mecánicamente es una delicia, con los escenarios se me caía la baba de verlos y he simpatizado con casi todos los personajes secundarios de la trama, pero, como he dicho, el final.

    Pros:
    -The environments are much more denser (more buildings to explore, with more height and size) and allows for greater creativity whether it comes to stealth or run n' gun.

    -The semi-open world exploration section was brilliant and allowed the player to explore at their own pace. The chapter can take either 40 minutes or 3-4 hours depending on the optional locations which you can explore.
    -The shooting mechanics in Last Of Us 1 felt more arcade-y while in The Last Of Us 2 the shooting mechanics are more realistic. The weapon customization is simple but not intrusive, and give you a greater advantage over enemies.
    - Heavily improved animations in game-play sections compared to The Last Of Us 1. They feel more fluid and due to the technology that Naughty Dog have used, there is minimal input latency (one of the cons I had with Red Dead Redemption 2)
    -The game is much more gory and grotesque, as it should be in an apocalyptic setting like this.
    -Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson once again give a superb performance. Laura Bailey also portrays the newcomer Abby very well too.
    -The audio design is probably my favourite of this generation, from the echoes of the clickers through the hallways of abandoned courtrooms to the gargling noises made by enemies after Ellie hits them with a stealth kill. It's brutal.
    -The Last Of Us has upgraded visuals over its predecessor, but it is able to keep the same visuals as its predecessor when it comes to character design. The environment detail is unrivalled and the reflections in the water are beautiful.
    -The story is very cinematic and the set-pieces throughout are brilliant. There were moments throughout the story that were shocking and boosted the story, and in my opinion it works. If I could split this into three acts (Jackson, Seattle, Santa Barbara), the third act shines and leaves some interesting tidbits for a potential sequel.

    Cons:
    -The game-play is brilliant, but however can become repetitive due to the structure of the encounters being relatively the same. Some of the exploration puzzles are sometimes repeated but not too often to become annoying.
    -I would've liked to see more customization options in the game, specifically pertaining to characters. For both character upgrades and weapon upgrades, I wish that New Game Plus wasn't a necessity in order to unlock all upgrades. I want to be able to upgrade all of Ellie's skills and weapons in the first play-through in order to use them in New Game Plus from the beginning.
    -I played the difficulty on Hard and it was a very challenging and rewarding experience, however I believe the difficulty specifications should be adjusted. Playing New Game Plus on Moderate+ is vastly easier than Hard+, and Survivor+ could be infuriating frustrating for the wrong reasons. Props to Naughty Dog for allowing a custom difficulty where you can tweak certain aspects, however.
    -The content of the story is brilliant and I bear no problems with any happenings to the main characters. However I believe the structure of the narrative is off and certain moments could come in different order.

    Improvements?
    -Similar to the Batman Arkham Series, it would be great to feature some bonus Challenge Levels for Encounters.
    - I want to be able to replay a chapter and grab the collectibles I missed without resorting to deleting all game progress beyond that point in the story.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great graphics, gameplay remains almost the same as the first game, but the biggest issue, as so many have already mentioned, the story is poop. Just awful.

    The way they massacred Joel's character... why would he suddenly trust a bunch of strangers like that... It made no sense. And please, don't tell me it's because he's mellowed out after those years living peacefully. That is just dumb storytelling.
    I don't know. It just feels like a whole waste of a game. None of the new characters are interesting, because they barely get any meaningful development, and they suddenly they die in some bs way. Abby, the second protagonist, is straightup a psychopath and is impossible to sympathize with. Yeah sure, she helps children and pets a dog, woohoo, but that doesn't erase the fact that she murders people in cold blood and shows 0 remorse (unlike Ellie).

    Man, I don't know, i'm just sad, waited 7 years for this. What a letdown, what a waste, what an awful unsatisfying ending, what a dumb story, what a dumb cast of characters.... whatever, screw naughty dog, screw the people that thought this story was acceptable.    … Expand

    Unfortunately this game takes about 30 hours to complete, almost twice as long as the first game. Normally that would be a good thing, but with how bad the story is and how much you'll end up hating the characters for either being sadistic and unsympathetic or just complete morons to make the plot move forward, the length becomes a burden. It's probably the longest Naughty Dog game to date, and the payoff is nonexistent. The ending is terrible, there's no multiplayer like in the first game, and playing the game from start to finish feels like a chore. I had to intersperse my play through with intentionally killing the new ma'am at every opportunity just to get some satisfaction over this. Spare yourself the $60 and just watch spoilers online if you're really curious. But you're better off just enjoying the first game and pretending like this one doesn't exist.    … Expand

    TLOU2 - what an incredibly **** game. The plot makes no sense after 3-4 hours of playing - you get reset back to the beginning of the game, thanks for playing this, but screw that, we're sending you back - the continuation of the first game (which was amazing) is nearly VOID, the AI is garbage, and there is no relation whatsoever with the characters.

    The gameplay is at its most, okay. Puzzles are very few, combat is not very exciting, and the bugs whenever I climb a ladder or when the killing animation glitches is really lame.

    The story. Without spoiling the story, I can say that its inconsistent and poorly written. "Brave" and "Bold" is not what I'd describe it. While its being compared to the likes of "GOT Season 8", I'd also compare it to a bad horror film, where shock is the only factor it offers. This is important because 'The Last of Us" is a story based game and gameplay is only a way to transport the story. Most people are not disliking the Game because of its choice of sexuality for its characters. The characters are boring and story forces you to attach yourself to them (which fails). They are not very likable, trans or not trans. The story itself is not very realistic (whether about the world or characters) and the concept of "survival among st the apocalypse" narrative is thrown out the window.

    Sadly, I cannot recommend this game to anyone and I hope they revamp Part 2 into a different narrative    … Expand

    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...
