    I dont believe anyone who rated this below an 8 even , finished/played the game. I think the leaks swayed peoples opinions and now theyre hitting this game with bad reviews. This game is amazing. Emotional, fast paced, and driven by a great story.

    The game is good. Gameplay feels nice, graphics are great. But that story, my god the story... it sours the whole experience. Half the game is spent with the sourest taste in your mouth because it’s just that awful. Honestly it feels like Naughty Dog was smelling their own farts to the point their heads were up their own asses.

What the actual **** is wrong with the developers or scripters or whatever. The thing that made the first one good was the whole interaction between Joel and Ellie and how they were coping. They took that all away the second they killed Joel. Now I was like fine, maybe it'll get better but no. It ends with her losing everything, literally ****ing everything and the person who caused all this got to get away and live a happy life?! What **** **** that game, I ****ing hate it. I'm sure a **** toddler can write a better story Expand

    I didn't like the first game, very predictable. This game is not only good at mechanics and graphics, it is also very better that the first. The only bad thing is that the dynamism of the narrative breaks in a certain point and can frustrate the player, but if you open the mind for the plot and let it surprise you, it can improve a lot.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The gameplay hasn't seemed to evolve too much since the last game. I personally experienced multiple glitches of loading in certain things. The story is horrid and is pointless due to the fact that they severely dumb down joel for him to die they make Tommy extremely selfish and Ellie extremely reckless and not smart .overall this game disappointed me and it seems the only goals were to tear down old characters for a 3rd game with abby. I do appreciate them taking a risk but it just didn't work out for this game. Expand

Der Anfang des Spiels bot dem Spieler einen leichten Einstieg, die Mitte des Spiels hielt sich etwas jumpscare lastiger. Das Ende war unerwartet und dennoch versteckt sich darin eine Botschaft, welche die wenigsten verstehen. Es geht darum zu verzeihen, und somit ein friedliches Ende zu finden bevor alles zerbricht. Im Spiel haben wir gesehen wie Ellie zu spät verzeihe und dadurch zerbrach ihr privates Leben mit Dina. Allgemein hat das Spiel eine anschauliche Welt mit vielen Möglichkeiten und wegen welche es zu erkunden gilt. Jedes Kapitel der Story hat offene und geschlossene Bereiche. Durch die verschiedensten Ausrüstungstücke ist es möglich nahezu jeden möglichen spielstil zu verwenden. Vom speedeunner bis zur Assassine Expand

This game shows that this world has no good or bad. And I think this is why so many people didn't enjoy it. People went into this thinking that Ellie and Joel are the good guys and everyone else is wrong. And over the course of the game, this is shown to not be true at all. This game is not perfect but it is not as bad as people are making it out to be.

    This is of course just my opinion, and you are entitled to your own, and please if you are going to leave a review on this game, may that be a good or bad one, please play the game for yourself. There are far too many people just saying it's the worst for the sake of it, this also goes for the people saying it's 10/10 for no reason. Please just play it and form your own opinion, don't watch someone else play it because you are not going to get the proper experience. It's a game it has to be played.

    Thanks and stay safe.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Woke culture & Gender identity has penetrated the gaming world.
    Part 1 was a success & well writeen but a big fail for Part 2 which was highly anticipated.
    Gameplay still very good as previously but story is very poorly written, I understand that some teenagers might speak with a swear word here & there but this is non-stop, I'm not offended in the least but just didn't expect such a basic uneducated poorly written dialogue, it feels like this was written by a 16 year old even though most speak better then Ellie with less f*ck words.
    Then comes killing off Joel at an early start within the story when he is the father figure for the lead character & introducing some bizarre uninteresting characters.
    Creativity in this game got very poor within the story & lack of engaging dialogue & goals.
    And we have then identity politics being played in this game, I don't have a problem with the character being gay, but what I have a problem is the physical alteration of Ellie to become more man-ish, lack of build up story in regards to her sex orientation & introducing a new character called Abby which looks like a Transsexual (which again got no problem) but the game wasn't about sex & their orientation (any sex scenes from TLOU part 1??) & was about the 2 characters Ellie & Joel.
    Also most of the side story is all in dozens of little write up notes found along the game, way too many in fact & very repetitive.
    So in summary, gameplay still very good & deeply enjoyable but when it comes to dialogue I instantly feel the need to skip ahead (even though I didn't).
    Very poor attempt at Part 2 & destroying the franchise.

    the game has many drawbacks, but I still love it. Ellie's campaign is great but the abby campaign is already worse, it is not the worst in the world but it does not match the quality of the rest of the game. the ending is just as good as in the first part

    The gameplay is very similar to the first game with added in extras, but they really just didn't write the story well. They did the complete opposite of what the first game did. They decided to gut every character and just make them so 1 dimensional that it was a snooze. They make you go through so many people just to give up in the end. They might as well just turn TLOU 2 into a Half Life 3

    Mapa muito vazio, bugs, estória incoerente com o antecessor, bestialização de personagens com propósito narrativos mal construídos, cronologia desconexa, final ruim, preço abusivo. O primeiro é melhor. Ganhou nota 1 só pelos gráficos que são bonitos mas sofreram downgrad o jogo se preocupa mais em passar uma mensagem com viés político do que dar continuidade a história do anterior

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Is the most touching game I've ever played, just the way it finishes, gavem the exact same feeling of Ellie, it's a loneliness, sadness, and show us that in the world we have to give importance to the loved ones.
    The most interesting thing, it's because have shown us that every one has a story, and it's funny because when I heard that we would play as Abby I was just furious, but Naughty Dog did this part so good that In fact at the end, I was just rooting for nothing bad happens to either Ellie or Abby, and I really appreciate this hard working in history.
    The graphics are just insane, it's the best graphics of the generation. The gameplay is basically the first's one, the dodge move was a perfect addition, the scenarios was 100/10, every detail is perfect.

    It's without any doubt one of the best experience, and game that I have ever had the opportunity to play 10/10

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Wow, didn´t realize the hate out there - it made me sign up for metacritic to share my view - i´m german - so there will be some some language barriers, sorry for my english.

    First of all, I didn't read any reviews or watched any trailers, I wanted to experience the game "scar"-like - as a clean slate. I finished TLOU 1 a third time a week ago, to get into the feel for the new game. I played the game in hard, with scavenging on survivor - excellent choice!
    And I just think, this is the one of the best sequels of a game - and here is why:

    ND created a "realistic" world of what would happen, if such an infection were to havoc humanity. Society would collapse and many new forms of societal elements would arise - loners; military; cults; free societies; anarchists and so on. Humans aren't the apex predators anymore in this world - where the cordyceps are "united" in their mission, humanity is not (as nowadays)

    The core is a revenge story: Ellie wants to avenge the brutal murder of her love-hated father figure Joel. He is killed by a psychologically scarred women: Abby - whose father was killed by Joel in the first Part, as he rescues Ellie.

    The game will show you now both sides of the story and will force you to play them as well - two strong women on their personal revenge - and this is where the hate comes from, you as a player are FORCED to play both sides - and I loved it! In this fictitious and life threatening world, both women come to the same conclusion - life is not worth living if you can't forgive. Abby sees "the human" in the two Seraphites she has rescued - and Ellie sees it in Abby, as she finds her weakened, but still caring for her "Foster-Child" Lev. Ellie breaks the circle of unwanted and unconscious violence against each other and the mistakes they made (otherwise she would have scarred a new generation for revenge - Lev). Yes, you kill a lot of other human NPC´s and you don't care - because you don't know their story. This is the point the game is making - especially good in a real society where people are killed by other people flying drones with a joystick from home. The game is really violent - but such is life - normally we try to not look into it...

    But back to the game:

    - the mechanics are somewhat improved to the first one, mayor new feature is prone and you really need it on hard difficulty!!
    - The AI is top notch (it seems that on lower difficulties it isn't, because many people are complaining about it - play the TLOU 1 and check again)
    - Storytelling is great, you get immersed on a roller coaster ride of personal prejudices and you are forced to face them. "Everybody has it's reasons"
    - The graphics are incredible.
    - They should have offered "hard" (with scavenging on "survivor" - otherwise you will always have full resources for everything) as the lowest difficulty - that you as player feel this world - all others should have just watched a TV-Series - if you don't struggle in this game you can not get to the core of this fictitious world.

    I'm feeling sad after finishing the game. I'll wait for a DLC, but I feel really bad after paying 59€ for a little story.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Una historia sumamente atrapante y e de decir que bastante ácida ,recomiendo jugarla al poder brindar una mirada bastante madura de la ética y moral en un mundo bastante individualista .
    Debo de mencionar que me siento complacido con la mayoría de deciciones tomadas salvo una problemática que siento ,es demaciado drama ,una cosa mala tras la otra le succeden a ellie y abby ,entiendo que sea el ciclo de odio pero llega un punto en el cual es casi desgastante sentir tantas emociones negativas .Menciono si acides por quedó si no tienes un buen día o una semana buena ,dios está nuevo te destroza emocionalmente .
    La segunda cuestión mala que siento es que abby tiene para un juego propio y siento que si historia salvo el principio como el final pero durante 4 o 6 horas la historia vuelca más al contexto de Seattle que ala situación de abby como ellie ,está bien ! Pero siento que es para un DLC y no historia principal .
    Si no fuera esté una parte 2 tal vez lo admitiría pero es una parte dos según el título .
    La tercera y última es que los grandes cambios se dan en las primeras 6 horas,para despues sentir que incluso ellie quiere parar ,cosa que se confirma con el final ,donde ella siempre quiso parar y siento como si la historia la obligará a ser así .
    La última cosa que si bien no es malo es que los diseños finales de Ellie,Tommy ,Dina,Abby Son sumamente más llamativos que los que se nos presenta en la mayoría de la campaña .
    En especial Ellie que se nota más madura y seguramente ya en el final cuando vuelve a su hogar abandonado por Dina está debe de estár rondando 21 o 22 años .
    GAMEPLAY
    En este apartado an mejorado muchísimo ,noto como se pulió bastante este juego hasta su último punto ,considero que puede tener una jugabilidad que rivalizar con dishonored 1 y eso es un gran avance .
    Cinemáticas ,sonido ,musica ,ambientación ,gráficos como siempre insuperables .
    Si diera una descripción final diría .
    Se acuerdan cuando el profesor nos pedía 3 hojas de tarea y el matado del salón traía 10 ,pues este es el caso ,El juego tiene lo que pedimos en esas 3 hojas (los flashback y campaña principal de ellie y abby en su final )pero el resto de 6 hojas no están mal pero podrían haber estado mejor para otro trabajo (un DLC )o para otra temática aparte (spin off)
    .
    Sin más que decir espero que la parte 3 si es igual de larga ,sepa hacerlo de lo que se pide en una parte 3 y de ser así que la historia sea igual de emotiva pero porfavor ,un poco menos ácida .
    Un juego que debes de jugar si quieres presenciar los gráficos futuros así como una narrativa buena pero e de advertir que bastante pesada .
    Si eres fan del primero y de verdad lo compre diste ,es un 10 pero acabarás enojado con ellie .
    Si eres casual probablemente te saque de onda hará un 7
    A si que considero que está vez lo mejor es la mitad .
    Será de mis juegos favoritos por acontecimientos personales que los relaciono con la vida jodida de Ellie ,pero que sea uno de mis favoritos no tiene que quitar mi objetividad ,el juego es un 8 de referencia y cada quien sabe si lo baja a 7 o lo sube a 10.
    (Ni de pedo es menos de 5 por todo el apartado técnico y jugable )

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a beautiful game. Graphically and Emotionally.

    Joel
    I believe this was necessary for the story. Naughty Dog really wanted to shock the player throughout the game and this was a good shock. I honestly don’t believe any other character dying would propel Ellie on such a journey and that’s why its so powerful. Last game was Joel’s story, this was Ellie’s. Not much needs to be said.

    The next big factor is Abby. At the start, we are made to hate this character but in time, she started to grow on me. After those first three hours or so, when I saw Joel’s life had been taken by this Abby, I despised her. Despised. I generally believed nothing was going to change my opinion about her. Even after I found out her reasoning easily I still hated her because I had an attachment to Joel and Ellie. She only started to really grow on me when we play as her during the second half. Her character is so very intricate. Of course the attachment did not compare to the attachment to Ellie by any stretch of the imagination. All the time, I was playing the game I was being very critical as there are high standards with the first game and I thought to myself, the whole story would essentially makes sense if it was just Ellie hunting down everyone and we didn’t see Abby’s perspective. However, although Abby’s 10 hour-ish journey comes at a very bad time as it slows the pacing down a lot, I think it’s relatively well done as it makes me feel empathy for her to an extent as I see the effect of my actions as Ellie and how it will simply continue this “cycle of violence”.

    I believe this game is meant to start conversation, a necessary one, about the power of hate and “an eye for an eye”. In this game, there is a strong sense of nihilism and bleakness, I came out of this game feeling extremely depressed and sad, there is little to no happiness in this game, except from a few flashbacks - some of the best cutscenes, which are very powerful for character development and few dialogue/scenes. Ellie playing the guitar for Dina in Boston (open-world part) is beautiful and I’m pretty sure this part can be missed if the player chooses not to explore the world fully and I’m lucky to see this scene. I don’t usually write reviews and I know this is ridiculously positive but I tried to find cons and there’s not many. However, this is my opinion, I have seen many reviews that are very negative and they back it up with plot holes and a depressing mood which is fair and I plan to be replay the game to really understand their points. I could tell certain parts of the game were cut, meaning the story didn’t move as fluid as I would like it at certain points however it didn’t really affect this experience for me.
    The ending is quite powerful. Although this game been out for 2-3 days now I’m already done as it was incredibly immersive. At first I was rather disappointed by the end so I went to sit and reflect to realise what really happened. Ellie didn’t kill Abby to break that cycle of violence and leaving the guitar was leaving behind that saga of blood caused by Joel as he “lived” through that guitar - it is powerful but not what any wanted or expected. Genius. Not many people will like this though because revenge wasn’t exacted for Joel and the journey may seem utterly pointless. Abby got to live, Dina leaves Ellie, and Ellie is left alone in a bleak and depressing world. In terms of the characters that join the cast in the second game, they are likeable but getting attached to them just propels the sadness and grief that fills Ellie’s world. I won’t go into much detail about gameplay, all you need to know is that it is ridiculously fluid and spectacular to be honest, the improvements from the first game are small yet incredibly effective, mixed with immense amount of detail put into graphics and everything else in the game et cetera, makes this an amazing experience however controversial. I want to say this game is not for everyone and maybe we aren’t even meant to like it, however it is an amazing experience. I will play it again to fully take in the breathtaking experience at a slower rate and find some cons. Honestly, this is one of the best video games I have ever played, it’s harsh, it’s brutal and it’s controversial which is fair and probably desired by Neil Druckmann when coming up with the story. It is like a 9 and a half, as no game is perfect, there are plot holes and uncomfortable decisions such as playing as Abby, killing dogs etc, but this isn’t meant to be a comfortable game, this is meant to **** everyone upemotionally and it succeeded for me

    Beautiful looking game, keeps the character of the first one, soundtrack is from another planet, definitely a lesson to movies and other games, but story wise...big disappointment, while the writers paid attention to small details [promises] from the first one they completely rewrote the characters.

    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]
