The "dedicated jump button" that was bragged about in this game is barely considered a jump and is more of a skip that is rarely used unless you're trying to get from one ledge to another (which only happens a handful amount of times). The existing characters from the first game (mainly Joel) feel like they got Men in Black flashed and forgot their personalities. The "Do whatever you can to get revenge" plot is exhausting and unoriginal. The new characters feel extremely forgettable and the game tries too hard to make you care about them rather than let you naturally get to know them. There's a few points in the game that seem like such cliche "bombshell" moments to try to force you to connect to a character who has barely had any "screen time". Where the story, characters, and core gameplay mechanics fail, the graphics are probably the best I've ever seen in any video game and are oftentimes breathtaking. The water effects and the landscape are amazing and immersive. If only this story based game had more going for it besides that.… Expand

    Pros:
    - gameplay
    - graphics - atmosphere - sound - music 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:
    - gameplay
    - graphics
    - atmosphere
    - sound
    - music

    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.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Good parts:
    The game is pretty and game play is great. It improves upon the original and I loved it through and through.
    The flash back scenes feels like the real last of us. They have emotional weight and have some good character development for Ellie.
    These are the only good things I found in the game.

    Bad parts:
    Do the infected even matter in this universe now? There was no significant story arc involving infected. You can simply remove them from the equation, replace them with human and story barely changes a bit.

    There is another big problem in story that affects game play in a very bad way.
    You can't sympathize with Abby at all when you have a control of her. I started to not search for supplies with her and die on purpose just to see her die.
    The game gives Abby all the cool weapons and the boss fights to make you like her but the first act of killing Joel probably the most loved character and some dialog in game itself depicts her as a horrible human being. Why would anyone want to play as her for 10 hours?

    I loved the last of us and thought it did not need a sequel. It was probably the best story telling in video game that I have ever played. But they had to ruin my memory with this game.
    The only way to explain story with an analogy is a dog taking a giant crap, steps on it and walks everywhere. It is stinky, messy and all over the place.    … Expand

The tension and suspens you get i don't think i ever felt in a game. The emotional turnoil is amazing. I had to take like 5 min brakes just to recover mentally sometimes. A big complaint i read is the ending and I have to say out of all the endings I imagined that may have been the happiest I could've imagined, especially for a game like this.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ok. I think i should start with the cool things: First of all, the gameplay is just like the original game, so that's a good thing. The music really fits, and the visuals are really beautiful. I can hear, i can see, and i can play in a wonderful way.

    So, why do i give it a 3?
    The story, THE **** STORY

    WHY DID THEY DO MY DEAR JOEL DIRTY LIKE THAT? WHY?
    Because muh revenge. Just because of that.

    I'm going to be absolutely honest. I wouldn't have minded if Joel had died. BUT DEMONIZING HIM AND BEATING HIM TO A PULP? REALLY? There are better ways to manage things like that.
    Now, Abbie. ABBIE. I really had a bad time playing as her, i couldn't forgive her for Joel, and the only thing i liked about her side of the story was the Scar brothers (though they killed one of them, so..... Yeah, that was really **** overall)

    Another thing i found really sad and disappointing was the ending. YOU DO A WHOLE **** ADVENTURE TO SEATTLE, YOU TRY TO AVENGE JOEL (your "dad"/parental figure), WHICH GOT BEATEN UP AND KILLED IN FRONT OF YOU, YOUR (PREGNANT) GIRLFRIEND ALMOST GETS KILLED, YOUR FRIEND/BIOLOGIC DAD OF YOUR KID GETS SHOT IN THE FACE AND DIES RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU, So you spend a long time trying to rebuild your life, with constant traumas from the past, and your "uncle" (which was also deformed by the same bad guy) finally gives you a hint of where THE VILLAIN may be.
    So you decide to risk it all to finally get that sweet revenge. YOU FIND HER, YOU FIGHT HER, YOU WIN! But nooooooooo, i can't kill her, She aint that bad of a person, she cares about his friend (which you don't know at all so why would you care?) SO WHAT WILL I DO? I'LL SET HER FREE! I'LL **** LET HER GO WITHOUT ANY KIND OF REASON!.
    What i'm trying to say is, the story really should've at least allowed you to have a choice in the matter, because for me, i would've definitely killed Abbie, without a doubt (but that doesn't mean that everyone will have the same idea as me, so it would've been great to have a choice).

    Now, to wrap things up, i will say this: If you like it, good for you, thou art a free individual. BUT, that doesn't mean that i will enjoy the same things as you. For me this game was really good, a solid sequel to the masterpiece that was the first TLOU, but for every right it gave me, like the gameplay or the soundtrack, it kicked me in the balls with the story. I enjoyed the first half of the game with Ellie, though i feel that some traits of her where changed (but since she grew up it's all right); i DESPISED the second half with Abbie, and the end was pretty disappointing overall. So yeah, that's why i think it deserves a 3    … Expand

    Jugabilidad: se siente la evolución desde la primera parte, brindando grandes opciones para enfrentar las situaciones, ya sea de forma sigilosa o totalmente como una maquina de matar.

    Gráficos: Me parece que las imágenes hablan por sí mismas, una gran forma de cerrar la generación actual, todas las texturas con un gran nivel de detalle, incluso se puede apreciar las texturas en la ropa, y los rostros de los personajes sumamente expresivos.

    Sonido: Al igual que el primero juega un papel importante aqui, no solo por el soundtrack que te ira acompañando para cada situación, también es importante para poder detectar a los enemigos (ellos podrán hacer lo mismo si haces ruido al correr o pisar objetos como cristales rotos), o incluso grandes detalles como poder abrir las cajas fuertes guiandote por el sonido.

    Diseño: Este es un punto que merece la pena destacar, todos los escenarios por diseño permiten explotar todas las situaciones desde diferentes ángulos, y está de una forma excelente retratado la union de restos de edificios y calles en conjunto a la naturaleza, mostrando estampas post apocalipticas muy pocas veces vistas.

    Historia: Este es uno de los puntos más atacados, pero es importante resaltar que no porque sea mala, desde antes del lanzamiento se habia comentado que dividiria a los usuarios y me parece que eso es acertado, es mundo que siempre ha buscado retratar de forma realista y cruda el mundo, por lo que no esperen historias típicas del héroe donde toda su vida tiene tintes magníficos y heroicos, muestra la realidad de supervivientes en un mundo cruel, y a lo largo de todo el juego se construye una narrativa acerca de lo venganza y lo mucho que pueden destruir sus consecuencias, el final es cierto no agradara a todos, pero no por eso es malo, al avanzar y vivir toda la historia para llegar al punto final va en concordancia con todo lo ocurrido, por lo que es una historia que tiene claro sus objetivos y los cumple, que a cada uno le agradece o los entienda dependera mucho de que tipo de usuarios seas.

    Conclusión: El juego es una experiencia que vale la pena, por todos los apartados podrás experimentar diferentes emociones, y que a cada uno podrá llevar al limite de diferentes maneras, si eres usuario de ps4 y lo empiezas con la mente abierta a disfrutar y poder entender la motivacióin de cada uno de sus personajes y porque hacen lo que hacen, sera mucho más gratificante de lo que puedas esperar.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Watch out for the fragile male gamer ego, it shatters at the sight of LGBT representation. In a world where social stigmas have been destroyed, of course there is going to be more openly LGBT people, no one is talking about how realistic that is. Imagine *feeling like* “LGBT agenda is being shoved down your throat” because of representation. Talk about bigotry. It’s a good game. It tells a dark and gripping story with fragments of hope scattered throughout. Really cool new types of infected and even a crazy boss fight goes down. There are some moments of frustration, like how there is so much aim drift on a controller (I really don’t know how they expect us to aim without upgrading stability). Playing as Abby was frustrating at first, but Lev makes it a really engrossing narrative. Also, I really like how Tommy gets a respectable amount of screen time. Joel died, that was sad. But that doesn’t give you the right to review bomb Naughty Dog before playing it. There’s so much fake news about this game, just go play it and make your own opinion.… Expand

I won't spoil anything but look how many say I loved first half of story but not the rest and then give it a 10. Nonsense. Not to mention how Naughty Dog abuses it's employees and copyright strikes against anyone mentioning leaks.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Back in 2013, i had the most thrilling experience with gaming in my life (maybe with life in general since
    i was thirteen), i remember very fondly going to the store and buying the game, and man, it chills me to the very core. Seven years later, here i am, absolutely crazy about the idea of a Part II. Such amazing graphics, small little details that increases the experience when you notice them, it's amazing to see the amount of love and hard work Naughty Dog put on these game. But, we're talking about The Last of Us, and it's all about story, and oh boy, TLOU always been an a dark story about humanity, fear, love, hate, all human things, the Part II is with no surprise about it. The controversy of Joel's death just reminds us about the world that the characters live in, there's no fancy and heroic deaths, you don't get to choose how you're gonna die, and seeing a character that we love so much die this way, it's really heartbroken, but that's the story that are being told. Never in my gaming life, hold a controller was so heavy, and the fear of what's coming next was so intense, never in a movie or reading a book i've felt like this before, this game is an absolutely masterpiece, Naughty Dog put some weight on the controller, makes you feel so many things trough story and gameplay. The flash backs of Joel and Ellie oh my god, you know how it ends, and it just make you grab that moment and enjoy it while you can, and also it shows how is Ellie still feel Joel's by her side saying "I got you, is everything ok". This game makes me crack a smile in the most sudle moments and also bring me down to tears. This game makes you think, it sticks with you, it's not only meant to be funny and that's that. Naughty Dog deliver us another masterpiece, 10 out of **** 10.    … Expand

    In all honesty I really did enjoy the game but I can see why almost everybody hated it. It was such a shocking turn of events that I really did not see coming. Was I extremely mad about how they did my dawg Joel only 2 hours into the game? Of course I was. I was infuriated. But once I got over that and realized where the game was taking me I really did enjoy it. The decision to force players to play as Abby was a strange one and I, along with almost everybody else killed Abby in almost any way possible as soon as I was thrown into her story. However, as I continued playing I realized it was necessary for this particular story. You as the player needed to see that Abby is no different than Joel and Ellie in the world they live in. As much as I loved Joel, I sympathized with Abby (somewhat) because if I were thrown into her situation I would've done the same thing. It's harsh and dark and felt like a punch to the stomach, but that's the world they live in. There aren't happy endings in this universe and I get that.

    I also understand where they wanted to go with the whole "cost of revenge" story line and "breaking the cycle" but to me what would've made this game a 10/10 is 1 thing only. All this game needed was for Ellie to go through with killing Abby in the end. Nothing else had to be changed, she could still walk away losing everything. Could've been a tragic revenge tale. Yeah you got revenge but at what cost? Sort of thing. But instead what we got was a tragic tale that made you miserable and depressed throughout its entirety with no redeeming aspects. Yeah it makes sense in this type of environment but for me personally....it made it seem like a big waste of time. Also, the simple fact that Abby walks away freely kind of contradicts the whole point they were going for. Abby got her revenge and gets to live happily ever after but Ellie gets **** on....pretty damn stupid to me.

    At the end of the day video games are an art form. They wanted to push a message in this game and I can respect it. The story really isn't as bad as people are making it out to be. There was only one problem with it and it was the missed opportunity of Ellie killing Abby. Other than that I really enjoyed it. It took me on an emotional journey from start to finish and it's a game that will stick with me for a long time. In my eyes that's what makes any form of entertainment, "good". Whether it's a movie, book, television series or video game, if it sticks with you and has you thinking about it for a long time it did its job.

    And to all you morons/devs....Just because somebody doesn't like it doesn't make them "homophobic" or "transphobic". yOu dOn'T lIkE mY gAmE yOu hOmOpHoBiC....makes you sound like huge babies that can't take criticism. Almost none of the problems people have with this game has anything to do with that stuff, cut it out.    … Expand

I think people just dislike the game because they were so ruthless... it was a tough game but non the less a peace of art. SPOILERS!!
    I think people “hate” the game first of al because it’s “cool” to hate it now but also because they killed Joel, Jesse... and Ellie didn’t get her revenge, and lost everything for it... she didn’t want to do to the thing to Lev that Abby did to her... also this game focused on the fact that there are ALWAYS 2 sides of a story and no matter how right you think you are, it will be a horror story for someone else and you will be the bad guy even tho you do “what you have to do...”
    Long story short don’t hate the game because they make bold decisions... live doesn’t alway have an happy ending and I doubt that will change in an apocalyps... whatever you say it was a peace of art, a shocking but wonderfully written story. The only thing I can say is “Thank you, naughty dog!” You guys did it again!! No game ever has played with my feeling so much and touched me like this game did...    … Expand

At first i did not enjoy Abby at all as many would agree, but diving into her character was oddly amazing experience. we’ve grown so much love for Joel and Ellie that we forgot how grounded this world is, how consequences matter and that no one is safe. Ellie realized when she was about to kill Abby that she needed to let go of the guilt, shes lost everything because of revenge, Joel, Jessie, Dina and JJ. most importantly she started to lose herself. Abby has lost everything as well, her dad, Owen, and yara. they both lost everything due to revenge, it goes to show that nothing good come from revenge. Only Loss. this game is a masterpiece, one of the most controversial games ever and Naughty Dog did a FANTASTIC job with this game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Contrary to popular opinion, I thoroughly enjoyed TLOU Part II. While my expectations were not completely met, I was more than happy with the outcome of the game. The gameplay was intense and amusing, the graphics were very impressive on more than one occassion, and the sound design was top-notch. With all of that said, the story is where the issues lie. While I acknowledge the flaws that this game had, I believe that the pros outweighed the cons, in this instance.

    One of the main grievances I've seen people have about the game is the death of Joel - specifically how and when he died. His death, in my mind, happened too early in the game (I would've liked it if he was in the game for an hour or two more), but his death was not complete "character assassination," as some have called it. If there's one thing that Naughty Dog tried to get across in the game, it's the notion that not everyone has a heroic death. Even our heroes, as much as we love them, meet grisly and unsatisfying ends. I was astonished with Joel's death, but I was forced to rationalize it and learn to accept it, just as Ellie had to do throughout her journey in this game. I wished I could've had another adventure with two of my favorite characters of the last decade, but I couldn't. Just as Naughty Dog had hoped for, Joel's death made me upset and struck an uncomfortable chord inside of me - it fueled my want for revenge, but it was intentionally drenched in grief and disappointment.

    The next thing many people have been angry about is Abby. This comes with good reason. At first, I felt absolutely nothing for her character. I didn't like her, I didn't hate her, I just did not care. When I was forced to spend 10+ hours playing with her, I was so upset that I actually turned off my console. If Abby had been given a longer introduction (possibly with more useful information about her), I would've been more willing to play her. Fortunately, I was resilient, I picked up my controller the next morning, and I kept playing. Abby's run was surprisingly fun for me, after I got past day 1. While I never grew to like her character or feel overly sympathetic for her, I learned her lore and accepted her.

    I think the thing that upset most players was the jarring switch between Ellie and Abby. Switching from high-paced, emotionally-charged action as Ellie, to a sunny trip with Abby's father was not the smartest move on Naughty Dog's part.

    Lastly, I'd like to talk about Ellie letting Abby live at the finale. This final act of Ellie's was not Naughty Dog's way of saying "revenge is wrong" or "killing is bad." To Ellie Abby's death would do nothing for her. Ellie could finally remember Joel in a peaceful, positive state and her mind, for the first time in the entire game, she was not completely marred by the bloody image of Joel's corpse. Most players would consider Abby's death a victory for Ellie. However, in her fragile state, completely abandoned by everybody who ever cared for her, Abby's death would've been a hollow victory. There is no one to boast to, she can't undo the things that have been done, and Abby's death would've resulted in one more lost child. Abby's death wasn't a necessary part of Ellie's life anymore, as her old life completely vanished on her warpath to destroy the WLF.

    The Last of us Part II is based in reality. There are no dramatically heroic deaths, there are no protagonists or antagonists, and it seems that, with time, nowhere is safe. Living can be suffering. The best thing that one can do in the world of The Last of Us is hope for a new beginning. Leaving Joel's guitar behind, letting her grievances wither up, and accepting that the past is unchangeable, Ellie sets off to find where the apocalypse will take her next.    … Expand

It was one of the first good story driven games. Even tho the story was simple, there were moments that made it more than what it was. Part 2 destroys everything the first game tried to build. The characters aren’t even half as interesting as the ones in the first game. The story is all over the place, the pacing is off, overall from a storytelling perspective it seemed really lazy. As shallow as the god of war games were, they made a better revenge story than the last of us part 2, and as bad as Spiderman 3 was as a movie it had a better revenge/forgive story. The way they tried to deliver the story in this one was just push the player and use shock value moments. They try to make Joel the bad guy and humanize Abby and make it seem as if it was her revenge story, when her half of the game just pushed the idea of her being a complete monster aside from petting dogs and saving Lev.… Expand

    The story.. well, that's the main reason why people rate it 0. Thats because they cant accept that Joel is dead and they didnt play the game. But overtime, as more and more people actually finish the game, the score will go up from zero.

Gameplay now have few new features but they add more variability to your experience and AI works much better giving you a real challenge (this applies to a “survivor” difficultly mode, cause it looks like it is a mode this game was ment to be played on and it gives a true sense of this harsh postapocalyptic world).
    Now story. Many sais that this game makes you feel exhausted and destroyed but I think that these are the exact emotions it wants you to experience. Putting spoilers away, TLOU2 is uncompromising with It’s characters and also player and makes you do things that you definitely don’t want to do, but in the end you feel that you made the right decision even if it was really a really hard one. For me it was a great story about circle of violence and I don’t regret that I played it. Thought I need to say that the biggest problem of this game’s plot is that new characters simply can’t compete in charisma with old ones also because we got used to and fell in love with Elle and Joel in the first part and their motivation is cristal clear and understandable for us. Thought I wanted to give this game a solid 8 due to some weak parts of the plot it has (of course it’s not ideal, but it worked for me still), I think that it needs this score more now.    … Expand

I can definitely see why some people got mad at the game and at points I was surprised it I still enjoyed the game a lot and the dual story made you see both sides and understand why everyone did what they did and at times felt bad for Abby for what Joel did but I still wanted her gone but as the game goes on it kinda went away it’s a good game with a gold story the game mechanics are just about the same with a few new things just all cleaned up and smoother than ever and I just beat the game and I’m ready for my new game plus run though even if you saw the spoilers and got pulled away from the game trust me give it a shot and play it it’s worth it.… Expand

The graphics are exceptional, the gameplay is fun, smart and dynamic (but it gets a little bit too much at some point , specially in face of the first game - reason for only 9 point), the acting is some next level sh*t and the characters are interesting.
    The story:
    In my opinion, there is no better way of making a sequel for the first game. Simply it cannot be done any better, than this. One of the smartest and most interesting stories in the videogame industry.
    ONCE AGAIN, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DONT LISTEN TO THE HATERS. PLAY THE GAME FROM THE BEGINNING TILL THE END AND I PROMISE YOU WILL BE BLOWN AWAY.    … Expand

    This is a good game. The graphics are good. The story is intense. The mechanics are polished and well thought out. I have enjoyed pretty much everything Naughty Dog has done, and this is no exception.

    Прекрасная игра. Заставляет задуматься. Прекрасно проработаны проработаны персонажи. Игра не достойна таких плохих оценок из-за всего-то лгбт подтекста

    ES totalmente INJUSTO y VERGONZOSO lo que están haciendo con este juego. Para empezar la VALORACIÓN es totalmente FALSA, ya que el juego tiene entre 25 y 30 horas y a los dos dias del lanzamiento ya habían 50000 valoraciones, realmente imposible.

Es una pena que el juego no tenga la valoración que se merece por jugadores de Xbox muertos de envidia, gente que vota sin haber jugado, fanboys que no pueden aceptar la muerte de Joel, y personas que no consideran el final “satisfactorio/feliz”.

    En cuanto a mi valoración, unos gráficos y unas animaciones espectaculares, y un montón de detalles que hacen que el gameplay sea de cine. La historia está perfectamente narrada, pero repito, la gente no tiene la capacidad suficiente para dejar el fanatismo de Ellie a un lado y aceptar que teniendo el punto de vista de ambas, ninguna de las dos es la buena ni la mala. Si tengo que poner alguna pega es que el tema de la inclusión está un poco forzado, pero no por eso la nota debe pasar de un 10 a un 0, NO. Tenéis mi más sincero 10.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly this game is getting a bad rep because people think the main protagonists on anything are untouchable and this game shows that's not true.

    I love Joel but I understood the events that happened needed to because for all the good he made he also did a ton of bad things and sadly he had to pay for it. The characters in this game are great and they did a great job with them. The gameplay is just as great if not better than the first game.

    Now for the story. While I agree that they could have done a better job at presenting the story there's little that can be critiqued about the quality. On one side we have Ellie who is hurting and is blind with rage and vengeance and in the other side we have Abby who was out for vengace for the death of her father. Just as Ellie is doing. What I think hurts the narrative is the constant flashbacks and cliffhangers left on pause for hours while you play some backstory. Although those moments of flashback do provide you with all the missing pieces of the puzzle they sometimes come at bad times.

    This game shows the other side to every story on movies and games. What happen to the other side when the protagonist goes on a rampage killing everyone? Those characters have families and friends who love them. Do you think that all those Fireflies you killed just suddenly appeared out of nowhere? That they didn't grow up and have friends? They they didn't adopt or bring children to this world? And not just fireflies, the soldiers, the cannibals, everyone you kill has someone who cares for them.

    I have to give major props to Naughty Dog and all the amazing people that brought this amazing story all the way from The Last of Us to The Last of Us 2, you did an amazing job. To my knowledge no other developer has had the guts to kill your favorite character off and then have you play as the killer only to beat the living hell out of the other favorite character. I felt grossed out while doing that but I saw the brilliance of it and I truly commend you guys for it. This series will forever hold a special place in my heart. Thank you Naughty Dog.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As a veteran player, I was expecting too much about the last of us part 2, but unfortunately I must say that it failed to meet my expectations I have several points of view to criticize, but it is not a secret that the story is the biggest point that was left to duty, it felt full of plot holes that they tried to fill to the end and failed to supply
    She feels a little lazy, lacking, with a terrible gap in the plot since (spoiler alert) after Joel's death we all would feel that Ellie would try to take revenge until she succeeded, whatever the cost since in the first information of the game it was it's about revenge, and if they've managed to finish the game I think they've stayed like me, strongly questioned In terms of gameplay, graphics, and soundtrack os perfect but in history (the main attraction) it falls to short In short, obviously it is recommended, but definitely not a priority, as for my tlou 2 I think I will play it again, but it will be a long time for it ... If they have the opportunity, of course they should buy it, but if they are not fans from the franchise, or you can buy other games, you could just as well wait for an offer or just let it go    … Expand

    Great game. Lots of unexpected turns and pure horror inducing moments. Great character detail and depth. Despite others being infuriated by a single moment at the very beginning its not a bad game

    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]
