    It's a shame how you turn this game into a tool of propaganda. Your game is good only for critics ,not players .There is weak,boring ,uninteresting and garbage storyline full of propaganda.
    Only graphics are good , but certainly not the best.

    Waste of money. Honestly can't believe the games journos and critics have scored this game so high. They are bought and paid for! Naughty dog are pathetic, they really made a mess of the last of us 2. The story and characters are poor. its really a kick in the teeth for fans of the first game. Truly disappointing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really enjoyed the bond between Joel and Ellie in the first game and the ending was great, this game really angered and disappointed me since Joel just turns into a minor character and gets killed by Abby.
    Naughty Dog could have made the story more interesting since they had potential but they just ruined what made the first game amazing in the first place. And Ellie doesn't even kill Abby, like what?
    Abby's father, the surgeon was just one of the dozens of NPC's you killed in the first game, so unimportant they even got his skin tone wrong. Real bad writing Neil. The critic reviews are terrible btw.

    They ruined the franchise! How can you mess up a story so bad?!? The only thing that would have made a game like this stand out is it's story, it's gameplay being quite generic and linear at best. I feel like they just spit on the legacy of the first game, which was a masterpiece!

The guy who couldn't be ambushed and killed literally hundreds of people who then just walks unarmed into a group of random people he's never met sneaking around outside his town who are armed to the teeth... Well, you were too stupid to have a gun on you and kill even one of them. From there on in it literally is just a downhill slide into why am I playing this? I don't have a connection to any of these characters.

    I'm sure some people will enjoy it but for me it was just a rehash of the first game with no enjoyable elements. And holy crap... There must be 10x as much useless wondering and spastic navigation 'puzzles' my r-tarded One eyed pug could solve than Dragonball z and Naruto and one piece EPs combined. I've never watched any of those but I hear it's a lot.
    The game didn't make me angry because I hate lesbians, vengeance, gore, busy work or grinding achievements. It's just a **** game. Enjoy my money but part 3 is going to have to wait for me to pick it up on sale 3 years after release. Second hand. From a pawn shop. For $10. Sorry not doing that again.

    The plot is filled with strange, borderline insane **** of violence. The camera loves to linger on characters being mutilated and killed while the author(s) try to shame you for what "you" did (there are no choices.) American politics is dense throughout the game and seems gratingly out of place in the post-apocalypse world, which would no doubt have developed its own distinct politics and likely not the kind we see in 'TLOU 2'. The gameplay, which was never what anyone played TLOU for, is quite boring--for what it's worth.

    It is genuinely surprising to me that the game is this bad. I do not think anyone can legitimately enjoy this game, but I know that many people will pretend to in order to appear sophisticated.

    First of all i wanna make something clear, the game is graphically impressive, just like the first game was during it's time, pure eye candy... But that's just it! Nothing else about this game is alluring. The gameplay is not exactly thrilling, it's your standard over the shoulder shooter, just as it was the case with the first game, a formula we've seen thousands of times already, that doesn't add anything new and that many games previous to this one have already done better. No, gameplay isn't the reason why The Last of Us became popular to begin with, it's the story... And there's where the problem starts:
    It's like a cheap satire, the amount of plot holes, questionable writing choices and overall silliness of it all hurts me, because this game had such a great predecessor in that department and it FAILS to deliver, horribly so. There's barely any character development for the cast, and if there is, it's for the worst. Joel's hurt badly in this regard, it won't explain much, but if you were a fan of him, you'll be very disappointed. The fact that ND falsely advertized the game by showing us footage of Joel in the trailers, and then having him replaced by another character in the actual game cutscenes, is the most insulting part of it all. There's some other questionable things like that disgusting sex scene which had no point or place to begin with.

    Overall a terrible successor and both the nail and the coffin to the franchise, if you were to ask me, The Last of Us never had a sequel. Save your money.

    First of all I'm not a bot, I love ad support women and LGBTQ community I have good friends who are LGBTQ, also I am very liberal so don't try to diminish and paint my opinion as fake or misplaced because I happen to not like this game. I find it disgusting how the "pro critics" are trying to diminish the opinion of real fans. 20000 fans giving a score of 3.3 is a LOT OF PEOPLE sayingFirst of all I'm not a bot, I love ad support women and LGBTQ community I have good friends who are LGBTQ, also I am very liberal so don't try to diminish and paint my opinion as fake or misplaced because I happen to not like this game. I find it disgusting how the "pro critics" are trying to diminish the opinion of real fans. 20000 fans giving a score of 3.3 is a LOT OF PEOPLE saying Naughty Dog failed horribly with this game. I preordered this game and thankfully I saw gameplay from youtubers who got an early copy of the game the day before the release. I saw the 1st two hours of gameplay, I also saw several hours of play for the mid part of the game and I saw the last hour of it so I know how it all ends. Let me tell you I was, I am devastated by how bad the story is. I was and I'm so upset. I canceled my preorder. I am a big fan of naughty dog well I guess I was, I'm incredibly sad to see how Naughty Dog destroyed this franchise and 2 of the most beloved characters in gaming for literally nothing. How in the world could they think fans of Joel and Ellie would want to play this story. As someone said I don't have to play the full game or even play it to give a review, the same way that I don't need to eat a sandwich that other people have described in detail and told me it is disgusting to know that the sandwich is bad and I will never eat it. That's exactly what this game downfall is enough people have played and described it and seen it and told us how bad it is that all you need to do is to just go and see the gameplay in youtube to confirm how bad the story and character choices are. The story is plain bad and a game like this in which the story and characters is what makes people want to play the game the story is everything. Fans are so upset the game has a 3.4 out of 10 score in metacritic based on more than 20,000 reviewers and I guarantee you that is not a fake score cause it is real players and fans of this franchise who want no part of this game. Naughty Dog ruined its most precious franchise, my favorite videogame characters, somehow it seems to me they forgot how much love we TLOU fans have for Joel and Ellie because how in hell you will believe that we will care or have any empathy for anyone who is not Joel and Ellie. They blew it in an EPIC fashion and they need to acknowledge that they failed the fans and their characters. Trying to call a 3.3 score in metacritic from more than 20,000 people is not going to unmake the nightmarish reality that you made a huge mistake and need to own need and do much better next time. These are your fans who spent 5 years waiting for your product and we are pissed and hurt. I give this game a 0 because I don't want to ever play it to me it doesn't exist because it doesn't hold true to what I and many others believe Joel and Ellie characters and story is. Ellie and Joel story will always for me will always be just the one in the 1st game. Expand

    Game is really repetitive in conflict parts. There is no differemce between cheap hollywood scenerios. Naughty Dog have to be more respectful to customers. We have to balance againts inflated rates. The game chance characters without focusing any character

    A key moment to actually prove that gaming journalists are either paid for giving good reviews.
    The game itself is clusterf... of a story that only one man likes; the creator.
    Technically it's ok.
    I don't we ever will see a game reviewed so differently between users (real gamers) and sellout journalists.

    TLOU should’ve been a “one-of-a-kind” experience. This second game tries to hard to be like the first one but lacks of emotional moments, interesting situations and the gameplay is overall too similar as the first game.

    Also they have Netflix for that why invade the gaming community too?? We were happy and I bet even gay people and transgenders didn’t want to play as abby or have the story like this.

    Characters are way not what they are supposed to be, suddenly stupid, the story is broken and sacrificed to something weird. I understand the gaming violence and concept of explanation of "violence is not the answer" through the violence, but this game is just stupid and gross for no reason. RIP.

    No tiene buena historia, cambiaron completamente la personalidad de los personajes, plot twist sin sentido y carentes de argumento, una completa decepción de principio a fin, gráficos y jugabilidad muy buenos, pero no compensa jamás la historia horrible que tiene

Gameplay and visual are absolutely stunning but man the story is so trash, they tried to be "edgy" and "realistic" but it feels rushed and empty, I do not feel any kind of bond to the characters even the main one from the previous game. Furthermore, the company itself tricked us with the trailers, so what more can you say? Expand

    Gra wygląda świetnie, ale to jedyna rzecz, jaką może Ci ona zaoferować, jeśli podobała ci się ostatnia z nas historia.

    Historia 0/10 - Żadnych sympatycznych postaci.
    Rozgrywka - 0/10 Historia zabiła grę dla mnie.
    Grafika - 8/10 pięknych scen.
    Możliwość powtórki - BRAK.

    Ogólny wynik - 0/10 - oddałby moją kopię „Last of us 2” za darmo lub po prostu spalił.

    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]
