    Il gioco è disarmante dall inizio alla fine , diverso dal primo capitolo ma incredibilmente bello e ugualmente commovente.. forse anche più del primo.. molto più triste e cupo. Si ripercorre il duro rapporto che si è venuto a creare fra ellie e joel... gli attriti i rancori ... è un gioco che tratta una moltitudine di temi e che che ti fa provare una moltitudine di sentimenti, spesso diversi fra loro, questo è un capolavoro dalla grafica alle musiche dalla recitazione alla giocabilita’.
    Incredibile leggere alcune recensioni stupide fatte apposta per abbassare i voti.
    Un gioco deve lasciare sempre qualcosa e the last of us 2 lo fa in una maniera che definirei arte pura.....ti lascia pensare , riflettere sognare. Insomma non ascoltate personaggi che nemmeno hanno provato il gioco o che si sono lasciati travisare da leak passati senza nemmeno provare a vedere se ciò che avevano letto corrispondesse a realtà.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I must say, the game is excellent. Seriously. Locations and the world worked out simply masterpiece. Characters change throughout the game, it is interesting to watch the development of the same Ellie as a character. But! With all due respect to Naughty Dog, there are some plot holes in the game that my brain cannot explain. At some points, the game didn’t work out, such as with the death of Joel. This character sunk into the hearts of many people after the first game, but we were not shown scenes of mourning. Dina, in my opinion, is not a very elaborate character, so by the end of the game I was not hurt by the scene with Ellie leaving Dina on her last trip. AI in this part is beautiful. The way that enemies bypass you, interact with your environment and talk to each other is obviously worthy of praise. The game has some kind of LGBT propaganda, for which some users began to underestimate the game’s ratings, but this will not affect my rating, since I am neutral about this (I don’t care about other people's relationships and you should not). My verdict is 8.5/10 (it costs 9, since 8.5 is closer to 9), but Joel could have a more vivid farewell. Thanks to everyone who read, thanks to the developers for a good game.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Joel Fanboy's children being cranky shouldnt get to ruin this score. The game isn't perfect, and has some items that could've been better (no issues with a gay main character, but it was over done a bit). Overall though it was a really good game, with an engaging story and beautiful graphics. I wish the game had ended with one or the other dying, as it would have felt more inline with the entire message. (revenge is a cycle that never ends?). But the majority of reviews I see here that are negative are some form of "Joel died, thats stupid", and "I hate Abby cause she killed Joel". Joel killed Abby's Dad. Her 4 year story ark was literally Ellie's, but further along. People mad that she wasnt upset by her murder of Joel? Why would she be? She got revenge on the man who killed her Dad? I clearly saw the game as it was intended, which is, from both sides of the coin. And in doing so, I really enjoyed playing the vast majority of it. Good game, strong story, ending lacked a bit.… Expand

To make the game ‘perfection for the fans’..... and THIS is what’s handed to us (not for a small price either). 6+ years I have been waiting for this - and the hype train has been tootling for the last 2/3 years.

    Although it subverted expectations in a way I don’t fully agree with, it delivers another satisfying installation to The Last of Us story.

    A clever take on morality told through a non conventional story structure. It makes you question your actions all the way to the end.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've managed to dodge all spoilers and all the conflict regarding this titlebefore its launch. I loved the first part and I've enjoyed every single moment. Part 2 came out...I was very disappointed because of the story like everybody else. I was expecting to play more with Ellie and I was ok with killing Joel, but not in the first hour of gameplay.

    I am not the typical gamer when it comes to zombie games. In the first game I knew I had to face my fears and kill zombies just to see what happens with those 2, now I played the second part just to see if I will be playing again with Ellie, waiting for Abby part to finish. I did not enjoy it as much as I did with the first part.

    Graphics and game mechanics awesome, but the story.....very bad written and the placement of those flashbacks is just bad. You kept me the entire game just to tell me that Ellie's last words to Joel were not - Leave me alone!    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I never usually write reviews for games, but I felt in this case it was necessary. Before playing the game, I avoided all trailers, spoilers and leaks. I waited years for this game, and words cannot describe how disappointed I am.
    Firstly, there are several elements to the game which are incredible. Naughty Dog have put blood, sweat and tears into this game and it shows in many areas. The visual scenes in this game are breath taking. The attention to detail for the environments is credit worthy. I would say the visuals are the best I have seen from any game. The customisation with difficulty settings, as well as accessibility is ground breaking in my opinion. That is however, where the good points end.
    The gameplay is quite similar to the first game. However, the addition of going prone and jumping is a welcome one. However, I was disappointed with the lack of puzzle solving in this game. In the first game, you would use the wooden planks, ladders etc to make it from point to point. This allowed a break from the violent killing of humans and infected. This game severely lacked this and as a result the gameplay turned into run, kill and move to the next area. With a game time of around 30 hours this became very monotonous towards the end. This is a shame considering the rope mechanics introduced in the game were incredible but sadly under used.
    The major disappointment and unforgiving in my eyes is the story. The premise of the story is revenge over the death of Joel. The plot holes start here. Joel was of cautious of everyone. In the first game, this was apparent when he knew the "injured" man on the road, while they were driving, was faking it. However, in this game he conveniently trusts a stranger and follows her to her base which is filled with more strangers. He seems to trust them, Tommy even invites them back to Jacksonville! In my opinion this was lazy writing. They needed to find a way to get Joel into that position, however this was poorly executed.
    The biggest problem is playing half the game as Abby. Once she has killed Joel in such a fashion she is irredeemable. As you play her, she is made to be more human. However, I already saw that her killing of Joel was justified. He killed her father. An eye for an eye. But forcing us to play as her in an attempt for us to like her was terrible. We played as Joel for an entire game, so I don't understand how doing a long winded side mission with Abby would somehow turn us to her side. If the game introduced us to Abby and showed her perspective after the hospital, and then led up to Joel, rather than flashbacks this may have been more effective.
    One of the most enjoyable aspects of the last of us was the relationship between Ellie and Joel. There was no character building of any of the main characters like Dina and Jesse. Jesse is killed and I didn't feel much since I didn't know much about him. If Dina was removed and Ellie went solo, there wouldn't be much of a difference. This shows how little Dina mattered in the grand scheme of things. More development between the two should have occurred.
    The icing on the cake is the ending, which is shocking. Ellie finds her way back to Abby after everything, to take her revenge. She slaughters an entire settlement to get there. A fight ensues and Abby bites off two of Ellie's fingers. Yet after all of this, Ellie feels that Abby should be spared? In the end we see that Ellie can no longer play the guitar since she is missing fingers, she has lost her family and friends and has nothing to show for it. The game tries to display the message that endless violence is never the answer. However, they fail to account for all the potential people who could come after Ellie after Seattle or after Santa Barbara. Moreover, they allow Abby to get her revenge but Ellie is denied.
    There are too many flaws in the plot to note. The aspect of the story I did enjoy was the flashbacks with Ellie. These were very well written and reminded me of the first game. I would have rather preferred an entire game of such flashbacks than what we got.
    I have noticed several people find the politician tones of the game appalling. Personally the addition of gay/trans did not affect me at all. It did not add or retract anything from the game. I would not rate down a game for that imo.
    Overall the game is a let down. I would still say it is worth a play purely from the visual aspects. However, do not have high expectations.    … Expand

Also the fact that you killed Joel is as horrible as it gets, but we dont even get to play with him???? Come on!! Needless to say i will miss the 70€ i spent pre ordering the game and I advise you not to do the same, with the only exception being If you are Neutral to the story. If you dont care about the story the gameplay is breathtaking and ontl then is it really worth yout money.… Expand

    A game that is unfortunately being treated very harshly and unfairly. Just because your favourite character died doesn't make it a bad game. This is the most emotionally involved I have ever been in a story game and I spent most of it crying. I do however find the Abbey game play to be tedious at times apart from the Warzone and ground zero at the hospital. For those claiming it's SJW you've already lost the argument. Fantastic story with depth, emotion, pain and anger and an amazing capture of the human condition. Explores the inability to let go in great detail. Love it. It has its flaws but so does part one.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game has a bad history of hate before it was released. So let's talk about what the haters don't like.

    Plot: There are no holes or forced paths. This game talks about psychological trauma and how if not resolved can destroy someone. We watch the evolution of the same trauma, the murder of a father, in both Abby and Ellie, and see how they resolve the demons that torment them. The theme of this game is not only the futility of revenge but a commentary on how psychological trauma can reshape us if not treated. The last 2 hours of the plot are pure Shakespearean drama in videogame form, the only way someone can disparage the plot of this game is because they never opened a book in their life (or read too many mangas...)

    Sex: Sex in this videogame does 2 things, first it's not a pure show of flesh (that's why Sony didn't censor it unlike in other games), second it serves the purpose with Ellie to create a progression in her relationship with Dina, in Abby instead ND wants to depict something that happens in real life when you don't resolve your feelings for an ex. I can understand that all the incels out there have no idea of what I'm talking but please start reading something other than mangas, it' not that hard.

    Gameplay: Similar to the first game, I expected more improvement but in the end, we cannot have ND employees slaved for our entertainment (more than they are already). The game is playable and fun with some well-placed jump scares.

    Politics: What politics? the only themes that you may think are political are: Ellie and Dina's relationship, really? In 2020 you think living free your sexuality it's political, please **** go kiss your waifu. Abby is practically mister muscle, this one even I don't' know where the **** it's political, she's a soldier... being in shape is a sin for the right?
    Lev is trans, oh my, if even the SCOTUS with a majority of conservatives ruled that you can't be fired if you're LGBT+ can we all agree that in 2020 finally, we are all nearly equal under the law? And that trans people deserve to live their life how the **** they want and not by your expectations? After the tirade... First GOOD representation of a trans character in a videogame...
    The cult, ok children let me tell you what happens with religious fanatism, something like all the **** since 2001? And please, don't try to sell my the lie that one religion is better than the other, fanatics are all the same.

    So, why people hate this game? Because it's not a game for children or pubescent teenagers, it's a game for people that have lived a little outside mommy house and have experienced life hardships and that can recognize them. It's not a game for everyone, yes, but in the end, it is a masterpiece, like the first game it can talk to your soul if you don't have the emotional range of an amoeba.
    Oh and it's a game for people with a brain... (ND there is were you went wrong...)

    So let see if ND learned to not overwork people for the next game.

    Oh yes, since I already smell the stench of unwashed, never left home, waifu lover-boy, trying to paint me as a lefty, I'm not, I'm a very proud capitalist who loves that welfare exists to bring equality to all (I'm a centrist, **** I forgot your mental abilities). Think a little about that, or not please, your minds scare me.    … Expand

    I’ll begin by saying I like this game, but I do think the critics from news outlets exaggerated their score.

The Last Of Us Part ll is not the perfect game both in gameplay and story telling, but has compelling themes that deconstructs the players views of characters from the previous games. This game is not for everyone and when the credits rolled I found myself not really wanting more since the stories of these characters have been told and coming out of the events of this game they all lost more than they gained. The Story in this game feels everywhere, Neil Druckman took a lot of cues from Tarantino and his way of story telling most notably in vain of Pulp Fiction with a revenge tale similar to Kill Bill. With that being said this type of storytelling doesn’t translate well into a 25 Hour Story. This game focuses on both sides, no one is the good guy and no one is the bad guy. The Last Of Us Part ll suffers greatly from this when a majority of the game you spend walking around with dialogue and discussions that aren’t interesting. This is more apparent within the last half of the game and is by far the weakest part too. The Combat this game has to offer initially feels like a rush after you blow off your first limps hearing blood curdling screams from enemy factions. This brutality alone compliments and reflects the themes this game strives to, but eventually this novelty gets worn out after awhile and you eventually see the flaws the game has to offer such as the dumb A.I that actively hunt you down during the numerous combat arenas. To simply put it, this game at first is fun, but due to the length of this game and how boring the game gets this game simply playing it feels like a chore in which you constantly wish for the credits to just roll. As for characters and relationships alongside the numerous deaths in this game comparing it to the first title a lot of these deaths lack any form of weight to them and all it simply spells out is “No One Is Safe and No Happy Endings Exist”. Ellie’s and Dina’s relationship what starts off as a close one ends up becoming romantic with moments where you see clear Jealousy by Ellie, this relationship does progress, but as it does and as you reach late into the game you see Dina has developed the same control that Joel once had over Ellie during a scene that propels you into the final three chapters. Overall The Last Of Us Part ll isn’t for everybody, I found the ending conflict between Ellie and Abby to be empty and lacks any satisfaction, their actions costed so much and for Ellie it ultimately left her with nothing and almost empty with this clearly displayed before the final cutscene. If I was to rate this game I’d simply rate it a 6/10 It’s a ok game, it’s clear that plenty of love went into it, but unfortunately it misses the mark on a lot of levels especially since I completed the original before beginning this game. Characters and Writing alongside the accompanied gameplay don’t serve the game well since all together it over stays it’s welcome compared to the original.… Expand

    When a game feels like work to play through and gives you the feeling of immediately returning it, that's not a good sign.

Yet I continued on hoping maybe I just needed more time with it like the FF7 remake or other slower paced games like RDR2. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. The only enjoyable parts were the flash backs because they used already established characters with more personality, unlike the new characters that are as likable as a napkin. And with an entire game centered around a story driven narrative, the characters are the centerpiece and make or break an "adventure" game like this that is very heavy with cutscenes.

    Sure the graphics, sound, and voice acting are top notch, but what does that matter when the story is completely amateurish with plot twists that seem like they were plucked from some reddit fan fiction. Mirror opposite from the first game in terms of depth and chemistry. I really tried to appreciate the new characters, but without giving spoilers, their motives and general traits are very unlikable and flat. The entire time I felt like I was playing some generic Netflix zombie series and that's a shame. I'm aware the writing teams were changed from the previous game, but come on. Don't use the same title if this is the level of writing to be expected. Compared to the Uncharted series and the first TLOU, it's no where near as compelling.

    Overall, this games deserves a zero because it's done something I've seen very few games do; tarnish the franchise so badly that I'm reluctant to even play the previous entry again that was easily game of the year and pretend this one just doesn't exist at all. There are so many different ways the story could have been written to be more engaging and better paced, but I suppose this is what happens when a company cash grabs and knows mainstream reviewers will shower it in praise. To rub salt in the wound, there are obvious politically correct tropes crammed into this game to cast the widest net possible and upset the least amount of people. The whole experience feels so artificial as if it was created in a lab with a panel of every affinity group and this is the result. Stale, generic, and just not interesting in any way.    … Expand

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...
