This one doesn't completely drops the ball (It's bad cliched, out of character and just plain endless violence), and there is absolutely nothing redeeming about this game. It is just going from one level to another clearing out enemies. Also about the enemies, there is very less variety and absolutely no sense of development. And don't even get me started about the story. Should have probably checked the leaks before buying, but I thought that ND deserved to get a chance without any preconceived notions. Big mistake. Guys, save yourself the money and get P5R, which is the best game of the year or save of Cyberpunk 2077. And the guys who are giving this full rating are just vowed by the graphics and presentation, which to be fair is one of the bests of this generation (PS4). I don't own a PS4 pro but no doubt it looks better. But good graphics and presentation are not enough to make a game and I would rather watch a movie in that case. I would give this a 4 but the blatant disrespect to consumers (false advertising in the trailers) which I won't detail here to keep it spoiler free forces me to knock this down to zero. Expand

    The story lets us all down. this is a game that hits you over the head with their own very narrow world view as some kind of absolute when its really just sophomoric pablum.

    we loved the first game for the story, for the characters. they were flawed but we could relate. in many ways they were the everyman/woman. whether or not you agreed with the choice at the end (I did agree. the odds of them just killing her and getting nothing from it were far higher than any chance of success. the corona virus is a far less complex thing and they have currently trained scientists in many top labs over the country struggling with it.. and somehow this game wants you to believe you did wrong rescuing her when all they had were a few washed up surgeons and a dirty dilapitated hospital to work with? they were never going to win that. but that sets in motion this new game where apparently they were so bad and so tainted by that choice that they deserved to be hunted down and killed and they're so bad you don't even get to play as them for the most of the game. yeah that doesn't fly with me. I don't need stuff rubbed in my face. I don't need to be told i'm bad and the things I like are bad. I want a good game play experience with a solid GOOD story. this is just not it. this is shock value for the sake of it really and the big moral code that this dev thinks he has isn't all that. middle aged edgelord is edgy. we get it. what a bore.

    to the higher ups at sony and naughty dog studios. Fire Druckmann. he isn't capable. go beg and plead with Amy Hennig to come back. you owe your success to that woman. You are bad and you should feel bad for letting Druckmann soil such good property. (do you like How I just summarized the game as it is and turned it against naughty dog?)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story is so poor, we spit on everything that was built during TLOU 1. Joel was a real T-800 during the first adventure, remember the ambush scene with the truck? That's Joel, a guy who doesn't fall into traps and doesn't trust anyone.
    And in TLOU 2, suddenly, after rescuing a stranger, he finds himself in a dark room with a dozen people armed, reveals his real name as if they were his buddies and gets shot. writing 0/10.
    And because above all TLOU is a game that has succeeded thanks to its story and characters, as well as a keen sense of detail, destroying this legacy because of some kind of nauseating anti-vengeance/non-violence moral forced down the throat is absolutely unacceptable. It doesn't matter if you put trans or gay people in the game, we don't care, but stop forcing your political agenda in games where it doesn't belong. Do you really think that in a situation where society is collapsing as a result of a virus that creates zombie fungus trans people would be a topic for discussion?
    - "you're gay, you're trans, you're both at the same time? I'm happy for you, now let's find some food to survive." That's what it should look like. It should never be the main topic of this **** story. Unfortunately, it is, with this stupid anti-trans cult (who gives a **** and these empty characters who are just there to act as a token so that everyone can feel represented. TLOU 2 never existed. naughty dog, die.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. THE GAME IS ABSOLUTE TRASH.
    Most of the spoilers are true btw and to top it all off now we know for sure that there is no point in trusting any game review channel like IGN.
    meme last of us 2 more like Grand Golf Simulator : oops some stupid ma'am killed the main character DLC includes revenge is bad.
    The game is the literal "Guys revenge is bad for u" book.
    Its honestly hard to beleive that the same company which made Uncharted 4 and TLOU can ruin their own stuff this **** bad. Uncharted 4 was without a doubt the most detailed game at least i have ever seen. The last of us is the only game till now which wasnt as story oriented like Detroit Become human or heavy rain but still made u dive deep into the characters.
    What does TLOU 2 does?
    Spoiler Alert!!
    It kills JOEL!
    Now let me ask u Naughty Dog.. Joel was the same guy who killed doezens of skilled Fireflies and saved Ellie. The same guy who u play for majority of the first game. the same guy player bonds with during the fist game. the same **** guy who kills Marlene (the only person other than Joel who Ellie trusted with her life)
    AND HE DOES ALL THAT TO SAVE ELLIE!
    SO the question here is
    ARE U **** KIDDING ME?
    U kill THAT legend with some new stupid character named ABBY! coz joel killed his/her dad?
    Do u have any idea how little that fact narrows it down. oh and more importantly joel did that to save ellie.
    oh and btw i forgot to tell u abby lives in the end becoz Ellie suddenly decides that she wants to become some kind of **** Angel and not kill our GOLF LEGEND.
    To make things even worse Naughty dog lied to us in the trailer and they probably did that coz they were like
    " Yeah uhh neil so we are gonna kill joel and turn ellie into a golf fan right?"
    neil : "Yeah why? oh and lets not forget how joel almost survived the wound in tlou1 , yeah make sure or golf legend is like trained at swinging golfs"
    "uh yeah listen i don't think fans are gonna like that?"
    neil : "uh don't worry we will buy all reviews fake the trailers by adding joel scenes which won't be in the actual game and and instead we will see our fav guy ASIANBOY666 and ummm i think i am forgetting something?"
    "calling fans homophobes?"
    neil: " oh yeah calling them homophobes and **** if they dont like it!"
    "how much should we price it at?"
    neil:"how much does a golf club cost?
    60 usd aprox if u wanna buy a ****ty one
    neil:"60 usd it is then!"
    Anyways Naughty dog u done **** up this time.
    i really really hope that u could have just been not this **** dumb, i mean its hard to beleive that these ppl could have made such a stupid story.
    But hey if u just wanna play the game for the fighting mech and are going to skip the cutscenes and act like a 5 yr old baby who plays just to see some gore
    then u r in luck have fun!

The ending touched me greatly, and the lingering sensation lasted throughout the year when I saw the ending, and it even affected the people around me. Naturally, seeing the news of the sequel and the trailer of the work afterwards, I couldn't help but get excited. I waited for release with high expectations. But the sequel gave me a very big sadness. Because Joel died? No, I think so. Because of Ellie's violence? Of course not, considering the subject you guys are talking about. Because of the new character? There's a new character in the sequel, and what's bad about it? Then why am I in a bad mood? It's your attitude toward me who knows my previous work. Expand

When I'm watching the last episode of game of thrones I was having a mental breakdown like the hell break lose I was sad and angry at the same time I was asking my self What happened to my beloved complex multi layer characters what happened to deep meaningful surprising rational storyline I can't believe what I have witnessed  with my eyes and This horrible feeling strike me today my beloved video game the characters that I loved so much over the years act so irrational the plot is antiqued and the gameplay stretched to 25 hour's and other characters is so tedious and boring as if they all end up dead u wouldn't care less The whole game gather around go from point a to point b And do it all over again Kill or bypass enemies and go to another location over and over again For Animations and visuals is top notch one the best in the industry but we don't play last of us for gameplay or geraphics we play it because we so attached to character and it's cruel world and beautiful well thought written story and deep humen relationships but the story here is horrendous Ellie keep making so many irrational decisions that makes my head hurts  she is so unbelievable selfish it feels like I'm watching game of thrones mother of dragon last season all over again Whole thing is so cringy and super clishe revenge story.  last of us 1 storyline was unique you see the beauty and ugliness in this world and character's interaction and decisions all makes sense but here in last of us 2 nothing makes sense and storyline are full of Holes and leave my questions in the air.
    conclusion: I'm not bios and I'm not following any company politics like many big reviewers are . the hype will not affect my judgment. for me last of us 1 is the best game I've ever played in my life so
    Because of previous game ((last of us and left behind)) last of us 2 is a huge game and huge drawback to the series and this game should not exist.

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.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I purchased this game not just for the stellar gameplay that the original had to offer, but also for the deep and compelling characters that made the first such a masterpiece. The first game had puzzles that were clever, gameplay was good and overall, pieced together an experience that the plau could grow along with as it made the world and the characters within it relatable. But you won't find that here, not in the last of us part 2. They completely kill off beloved characters out of disrespect for fans of the first, just for shock value. The story of Ellie being unique and immune from the first is barely awknowledged. They took everything good from the first and desicrated it, it's not the same characters you fell in love with and truth be told if you loved the first games characters then you will loath part 2's.

    This "game" is not anymore a game then it is a message from the developer; a message that makes it abundantly clear that if you're white or straight then this game is NOT for you. You're the bad guy here. The gameplay consists of 20 hours of stealth and combat, with very little in between to give you a break from combat. There are no light hearted moment that gives you a reprieve from its "you're so bad and violence is wrong" message. Its hours of the same thing over and over and over, which would be fine if the story was acceptable, and SPOILER ALERT it's NOT. The main characters from the previous game have been entirely rewritten for a revenge story that conflicts with who they are. The new characters are straight from the LGBT board of representatives, and designs and personalities are probably more prejudiced than I really want to admit. Stereotypes, trans women (or women that look trans) and lesbian couples that would rather hate men than forgive them for a mistake. It'sn an utter JOKE and man I really thought ND was better than this. Lesbians and transvestites don't play your games so stop catering to them. I thought the leaks were fake, boy was in the wrong. They were dead on. I'm in the process of trying to get a refund because I'll be damed to pay for a game from a developer that hates me this much.

    It is amazing how can one of the most amazing games ever can become a flat, unbelievable, hollow experience, riddled with identity politics. The irony here is that the game developer is pandering to a woke mob that will never play the game and pay for it, but completely rejects its loyal fanbase.

    As for the game engine, it is amazing and breath taking. Everything is extremely detailed

    As for the game engine, it is amazing and breath taking. Everything is extremely detailed and immersive. The mechanics and physics integration is spot on. The game story on the other hand is flat, hollow and unbelievable. Characters decision are poor and suffer from a tunnel vision syndrome.
    Everything feels artificial and sanitized. You can feel it as a metallic taste in your mouth for an hour to come.

    The only thing I felt when playing the game was red hot anger, because they ruined the master piece that the original one was.

    The game gifts an unlikeable character that only proves how a potentially good story can be burdened with cheap shock value and the death of beloved characters, yes the game was divisive, between the people who loved the first game and the paid reviewers from the specialized media, too bad we can’t kill the self insert of you-know-who

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After playing the last of us 1, expectations for tlou2 were big. Graphics and animations have been improved and the game looks very good, but unfortunately thats pretty much all i can say is positive about the game. The gameplay is pretty much the same as in part 1, which by itself isn’t bad, but not adding new features does make everything a bit repetitive. Now we come to my biggest problem with the game... the story. 2 hours in Joel gets killed, you go after abby to kill her, some random flashbacks here and there, some random ppl die along the way, and in the end you don‘t kill her because you had a flashback of Joel playing the guitar... that’s it. Characters aren’t very interesting, the whole plot is stupid and I couldn’t care less about Abby and her failed love life (and you‘re pretty much forced to play as her for half of the game). And for everybody saying I‘m hating the last of us 2 because I have a problem with lesbians... it‘s not like Ellie was a lesbian in the last of us left behind dlc already... and ppl didn‘t have a problem with that game so your argument it invalid.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you really liked the first game do not buy this. TLOU 2 destroys almost everything TLOU 1 have constructed. The redemption of joel in the first game, making him have a second chance in his life is erased, they literally threw in the trash, it’s like the hole story of the first game, all the characters constructions, personality, skills etc never happened. It’s full of SJW agenda, man, how the fuk ellie just turned around to like woman, “ooooh the DLC” c’mon bro this thing doesn’t have any context, they wanted her to be lesbian no matter what. And man, abby is so like a trap, it’s so like a man, they made a long hair that doesn’t exist, because when the character is visualized by the head, it seems she has short hair, like a man has. It’s almost that you doubt if her is a man or not in some scenes, the sex scene with owen it seems two man are having sex. The gameplay becomes a little boring because you don’t want to finish that story. It’s like a oscar SJW film and man how the fuk dina’s baby survived after she almost dye by abby. “But nooo it has survived, because we want to put a lesbian family in the game and that’s it accept it”, tommy gets a shot in the head but his alive, accept that too. Poor writing, nothing in this game doesn’t make any sense. And how ellie likes weed now? Really? That scene it’s just to pass a liberal agenda. The final is so horrible, ellie left everything behind to get her revenge, she has traumatic stress, remembering joel killed all the time by abby, but you now let her live, it just make so many sense why not. Making ellie be alone with less two fingers. “Oh what a brilliant idea”. fuk this story. Fuk this game. Don’t buy that piece of crap. Expand

    To be honest, I don't understand why a game has to be used as a means to achieve an end, rather than use it as an end itself.

    I dont care if the reason for doing this game was because the game devs got bullied because LGTB... i got bullied as a child for wearing big glasses, but if im in a creative process of a AAA game, lets say, LOTR themed, with a journey + big ending battle, I will

    What do you have between hands? A Post-Apocaliptic and Zomied-ish themed game, shut the **** up, focus on the important stuff and put aside your traumas that will make the game less attractive for the lets say...vast majority? (3.4 score)? You got what you deserve.

    Sometimes your expectations are too high and can't be met.

    Sometimes the story goes off the rails, everything previously accomplished is trashed, and a political agenda is shoved down your throat.

The story makes no sense and is filled with unnecessary characters and kills off important ones. It makes you kill countless people, and then not the main villain, which you play as by the way, Every reason people liked the first game, gets annihilated. This game is bad on so many levels, the 5000 characters are not enough. I am in a loss for words. This is such a bad and laughable game, future generations will remember this as the most hated game of this century. Whoever was in charge of the development should not be allowed to work in the game industry ever again! The budget was wasted money and should have been used to refund every copy ever sold.

    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]
