    The paid shill reviewers like IGN will love this game, but your average gamer will hate it. You need a shower from playing this turd afterward.

    Sad just sad. This is what we have been waiting for? Some of the worst storytelling in such a good franchise I have ever seen.

    Quelle immense déception après un fort bon premier épisode ! alors qu’il suffisait d’en faire une suite… qui n’avait qu’à être… une espèce de suite ! au lieu de se répandre dans un wokisme épouvantable qui a tout ruiné… sans compter ce féminisme hargneux et repoussant, très agressif qui pourrit tout le jeu, du début à la fin !

    Quelle immense déception après un fort bon premier épisode ! alors qu’il suffisait d’en faire une suite… qui n’avait qu’à être… une espèce de suite ! au lieu de se répandre dans un wokisme épouvantable qui a tout ruiné… sans compter ce féminisme hargneux et repoussant, très agressif qui pourrit tout le jeu, du début à la fin !

    Ellie, la si jolie Ellie s’est enlaidie, elle est devenue repoussante de wokisme, a perdu toute sa féminité : maigre comme un clou, décharnée, anguleuse : on dirait un zombi ! Quant à Abby dont on n’a rien à foutre, qu’on nous force à jouer, c’est une hommasse aux stéroïdes, une horreur de tous les instants, une brute ignoble : un monstre ambulant que le jeu tente de nous présenter comme… humaine ! alors qu’elle est le résultat d’une wokisterie éhontée et dégueulasse. Sans oublier ce festival de gouinasses tout aussi répugnant que le reste.

    Dégueulasse aussi, cette ultra violence, jusqu’à la nausée, une violence putassière qui n’en finit pas… tout comme cette histoire à la con, bourrée de trous et d’incohérences, des personnages illogiques et creux qui ne sont là que pour servir leur agenda, un agenda également donneur de leçons et prétentieux ! avec la psychologie à deux dollars, que tu le veuilles ou non, tu l’auras quand même, ce psycho-drame à deux balles.

    Et que de scripts, de QTE à foison… de répétition également tout au long de ces niveaux qui sentent le renfermé et le recyclage. Dire qu’on ne peut même pas choisir, car quoi qu’il arrive, on reste spectateur… devant ce salmigondis de jeu qui a eu les yeux plus gros que le ventre. Le premier jeu était efficace et simple, déjà très brutal mais cohérent ; cette suite est vraiment insupportable : on ne la finit que péniblement pour voir jusqu’à quel point, c’est de la merde. Et on n’est pas « déçu » : même la fin, c’est de la merde !

Создатели, вы в своем вообще уме??? заставить фанов игры, которые переживали все события первой части вместе с Джоелом и Элии, сопереживали им, играть за человека, который жестоко, по садистски убил Джоела на глазах у Элии в самом начале игры. Как это у вас в головах вообще укладывается???
    Мне НЕ интересна история Эбби, от слова СОВСЕМ, на ее переживания, может быть даже какие-то страдания, ПЛЕВАТЬ! Это лицемерие, неуважаемые создателя игры, т.к. на протяжении всей сюжетной компании Эбби убила массу народу, у каждого из них были друзья, может быть дочери и сыновья, мужья и жёны, так может давайте сделаем сюжетку за каждого из них, за каждого кто хотел бы мстить, почему нет? ЭТО НИКОМУ НЕ ИНТЕРЕСНО.

If u wanna lie to us right in the face so bad like we are 10 year old kids then right back at you....ofcourse its not a 0 but lfmao a 10? Killing Joel in 90min ? And then you leave me with a a spoiled **** called Ellie ?That is "pissed off" with Joel for saving her life the last 4-5 years?? Most of the characters empty with no interest for the viewer if they gonna live or die.... You wanna get a 10/10 give me an Option to pick what will happen in the end. And for all those who say the scrit was so deep that gives us messages about society and all? What is this joke? What messages? about what? That violence is bad? So you give me a splatter for 25 hours so that in the last 5 minutes i will understand that violence is not the solution? Did all that we played and rated the first game 10/10 became Warlords? Anyway im pissed 7 years for this u should of respected the fan base more than a fast story full of modern cliches about violence / sex orientation and identity etc,... you risked you failed simple as that... 4/10 for the graphics and sound Expand

    The basic component of storytelling in video games is the player.
    If the behaviour and decision made by characters in the cutscenes or scripted animations diverged too much from players' common sense, the whole immersive experience would just collapse and evolve to rage and impatience.

    With a terrible story, is the gameplay any good? In my opinion, no. It's just a slight upgrade from the first game which had utterly boring wave after wave of enemy stealth combat. Here, it's way more of the same. This time, the combat goes for entire sections without any witty or deep scenes. The only thing you get is pure torture p*rn.

    Buy this game if you want game developers to make you feel like a bad person.

This game only deserves a single sentence one that sums up everyone's thoughts on here, bar the greedy and the few who genuinely enjoyed this.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am not happy with this game at all. The gameplay hasn't evolved at all and now feels outdated and too simplistic for a game released in 2020. Basically you move from box to box evading the same enemies for 24h.The combat is very boring, enemies do not have any AI development. Killing dogs is not fun at all and something i didn't appreciate when i was forced to do it, as some instances you don't get a choice and you follow an script.

    The story is terrible. Batwoman level of terrible. It made me sick so much cringe. It keeps lecturing the player about situations the game itself created with no interaction from the player.
    Full of plot holes and too much unnecessary filling, this game could have been 10h shorter.

    If you brought this do yourself a favor and return it. Buy it when it's 10$ or less, it does not deserves anything more than that.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't want to make this sounds like hatreds but the game is a straight waste of emotion for 7 years waiting. Without a doubt, the gameplay and graphics are top class among the ps4 games, but the story is full of garbage. Can't believe I paid $80 for this garbage game. ND clearly forgot their product is for gamers, and mainly the fans from TLOU in 2013. Expand

    Could have been the best game of all time, but it suffered from a bad narrative.
    I got the game early, I liked the world, but hated every character in it.

    Don't buy this game. Neil Druckmann destroyed the series. The second part doesn't exist for me.

    Where to even begin, allow me to resummon all the anger I have felt over the last few months since the first leaks. This game completely destroys the foundations of the first game and disrespects all of the characters that we loved.

This game completely destroys the foundations of the first game and disrespects all of the characters that we loved. This game is about endless violence, a disturbing amount with no player choice in the matter. This game makes Joel and Tommy seem like brain dead morons that forgot they survived as hunters in this world, who just blindly trust a random group of strangers and leave their weapons in another room to get locked into a room completely surrounded and say, "oh well we live right over here, I'm Tommy and this is my brother Joel. WHAT YA'LL ACT LIKE YOU HEARD OF US!" completely out of character for them. Forcing a dumb early death that reaks of god awful poop tier writing. Druckmanns self insert character proceeds to spit on Joel's corpse much like he is spitting on the fan base. No sane fan of the first game will ever like this garbage. Naughty Dog and Druckmann have betrayed all of us. This is a revenge game WITHOUT REVENGE. That's right folks. At the end of it all Ellie has NOTHING and nobody left and decides to just let Abby go, after getting her fingers bitten off of course. This depressing game ends with her not even able to play the guitar anymore. JUST WHAT!!?? Who is this game even for Druck? IF YOU HAVE DEPRESSION DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME. 0/10 pure tumblr tier trash.

    Disappointment of the year... So bad plot, and trying to make villains heroes of the first part, oh, that's totally bad.
    Neil Druckman cameo, lol, was hilarious, as brutally ugly monster abby. In trailers she is miss universe compared to her in game.

    A sepultura de uma antes excelente franquia, simplesmente me deu nauseas, a história é simplesmente horrorosa e tenta a todo o custo vender uma narrativa para o jogador, e o força a fazer coisas simplesmente abomináveis em nome do progressismo. Recomendo apenas a masoquistas.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am heart broken, brought the last of us 1 when it came out and had a blast with the father daughter bonding storyline and cool gameplay, this game not only brought nothing new to the gameplay system, it also undermined everything that made the first game interesting, realistic and heart warming.
    For starters Tommy has no children IN THE APOCALYPSE! joel did not really move on and even died like a dog in a matter that did not even advanced the plot or made sense. Eli is an entitled idiot that **** on all the effort that brought her where she is AND TO BOOT SHE DOESN'T BREED, I MEAN YOU'RE HOLDING THE IMMUNITY GENE YOU **** AT LEAST BREED OR SOMETHING FOR MANKIND!!!! But the biggest grievance is making me see, play and interact with a bunch of terrible side characters that are all idiots, entitled and shallow, I would love the game to focus on the old guard and see how they can't keep up with families and health conditions that come with age, would be great, but we are stuck with this joke! Pathetic....

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us Part 2 did something that no other game has done. It made me lower my expectations lower than they have ever been and I was still disappointed. The plot is absolute garbage and that is no over exaggeration. A C grade revenge plot with utterly uninteresting characters.

    Abby is some angry chick who gets saved by Joel just for her to blow his leg off with a shotgun and then to club him to death with a golf club in the first 3 hours of gameplay. The rest of the game is a one-dimensional revenge plot that tried really hard to include some edge and depth but failed miserably.

    Barely any innovations or cool mechanics like the first game. Horrible plot holes, story elements and token characters that make the game feel less genuine unlike the first one. All of these things just serve as a device to appease a group of people for positive well timed marketing and have no actual place in a highly rated piece of art, which this is not.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Terrible, just..... terrible.

    I think this game was specifically meant to anger you.

    CONS: The father figure dying in a horrendous manner, murdered and LITERALLY spit on, but wait thats not all, they FORCE you to play his murderer for 10+ hours. Think about that, someone who creates this is definitely doing it on purpose to upset people. To get a reaction. This is not a true sequel, they couldn't have **** it up more than they did, its impossible.

    PROS: The graphics and animations.

    I actually managed to complete the game before release so i had time to prepare this short review, sorry for bad eng tho. To be short stealth mechanics are still the same and didn't developed throughout the years. You still can feel the tension thought. Shootings part are as great as ever and worth buying game already, you can feel every weapon from pulling revolver trigger to hitting enemies with foam. But to get to the interesting part, yes, there is a lot of political correctness in the game. There is a lot about women are stronger and better than men in everything, and the only community in the game where a man is ruled (suddenly) are fascists. This story is about a cycle of violence, an obsession with revenge, a good story. The heroes are interesting in the second part, I don't argue. But even a few of these political correctness and radical femenism in the game is a spoonful of dirt in a barrel of honey. The way white men are presented with chauvinist and biggots scum and women have all the power. In the end, i would still recommend the game, but its defenetly not a masterpiece and not as good as 1 part. Please dont hate the company and its workers but Niel Drakman and his radical femenism friends ( you know who i am talking about). In the end the only way to show them that this is wrong is by reviews.

    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]
