    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It was great. The gameplay experience— graphics, cinematics, controls, NPCs, and sound scoring. The story may have been controversial but it was logical. Some people may have declined to empathise with Abby but the TLOU2 showed us there will always be someone who will lose when violence is chosen to become a solution. Expand

    I am Russian and I am very far from the message of this game. I didn't understand the drama of the plot, I didn't understand the motivation of the characters. As I did not understand the prolonged boring gameplay. Good graphics, great animations, boring gameplay, AI has not changed since the first part, the plot is complete nonsense.

    Lots of people are giving this game a bad score for ‘sjw’ opinions and just giving gamers a bad rep.

    The problem with this game isn’t ‘politics’, it is that it is boring. The game has not much gameplay, gameplay is very simple (like ‘walk over here, click this button, and you did it) and is heavy on the cutscenes. You could basically gut the gameplay and made this a streaming/TV special

    That what happens when you are focusing on the way how people prefer to have sex (male - male, female - male, female - female, male - duck, female - donkey) - leave them alone! Pay attention to the story, to the gameplay, to the characters!!!
    Shame on you ND!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As somebody who loved the first game this is truly a injustice for the people who supported the dev by purchasing the game. You kill Joel in 2 hours and replace him with a character we don’t even know or have any real backstory too who the fu** hired these writer wtaf. But all right I get it make something new keep us on our seats and guessing but at least make a Coherent story and character arc. Lastly I have one final thing to say to naughty dog studios , why are you making games political.Honesty what did you think would happen especially in today’s current political climate. Your literally putting a wedge between you and half or your customers. Keep your political views out of video games plain and simple. You know most people probably more than 3/4 of the people have nothing against lgbt persons and don’t mind them being in a game as main characters but to say that we are all racist, bigots for not liking the Obviously Flawed Story and your use of editing to make it appear that we would be playing with Ellie and Joel again is wrong and probably illegal. Final words if naughty dog does nothing about ND and there writing team I guarantee you will no longer get any of my business. Expand

You can say that the point of entire story is to learn that violence doesn't solve antyhing, that revenge shouldn't be an option, but game doesn't really prove it - yea the ending maybe, but it's like sudden enlightenment, just stupid. Eentire journey should show it, but didn't - maybe for Abby but only partially since she killed after rescuing 2 Scars without any hesitation - her character is just devolving in that matter. And it's not about Abby-Ellie relations, but for all the others side characters like this fat guy, Tommy etc, except for one: Owen. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm about 15 hours into the game and the gameplay is GREAT, but the story seems a bit forced.... It's very unbelievable that Tommy (a bad ass ex firefly and Hitman that killed thousands of infected and militia) and Joel ("the madman" that killed thousands of people with ease and lived over 30 years in the apocalypse without much trouble) gets themselves killed from a handful of Wolf's... And alongside that, ellie had more than enough time to pull the trigger after opening the door. This all seems like it's forced upon the player to just accept it because it is what it is... And they wanted a revenge story that's not fitting to the story what so ever. I love the gameplay, I like the new characters, I don't mind the romance, buuuuuut it could have all happened with Joel.... The story just seems rushed, which is strange, because they had more than enough time to create one fitting to the first part. Call it a theory, but I would bet money on it that they had a different story and mid development they had/wanted to change it. I will continue to enjoy the game, but Mr. Niel should respect the fans that aren't gay bashing the game and accept our honest opinions! Expand

    I have never been so disappointed in a sequel.... 7 years of waiting... and everything that was so amazing about the first game has been completely destroyed by this one.

The first game was successful because of the story! This franchise is story-based! Which is why a lot of fans are disappointed. Not to mention the false advertising that completely made us believe it would be another Joel and Ellie adventure... when the reality was the murder of a much beloved character... in the first 2 hours of the game. It was then you lost me...Ellies revenge plot was genuine and I was with her throughout the game! I wanted that b**ch dead but then!!!!! you made me play the person responsible! Not just for 15 minutes but for the majority of the second portion of the game!!!!! and had the audacity to try to get us to SYMPATHISE! With her! No! Just no!.
    But what made me more angry was that Ellie’s revenge plot goes nowhere! The person got to live! Which makes me believe! That the killing at the beginning was just a plot device! Which basically proves that the director Neil didn’t give too s**ts about our love for the characters who we grew to care about in the first game. It’s like we have completely forgotten about the zombies and what made them interesting and again moved to the humans. Much like Walking Dead. Which in my eyes is boring. Don’t get me wrong there are some positives, the gameplay is excellent, improving your weapons has this cool animations and most of all the graphics is just stunning!! but the story had to be right and it wasn’t. *sigh*

Who in their right mind would clear a very late term pregnant woman go into a combat/front line mission and then be surprised when they get injured. Don't get me wrong the combat and leveling have been decently improved, but not enough to keep me completely invested in the story. The score (when you can hear it) is phenomenal. I just felt overall let down by how horribly the characters transformed in this so unnaturally. I really wanted to love this game and I felt cheated. I had such faith in this sequel to blow me away as a follow up to one of the few games I will never stop playing. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Excellent graphics, clunky outdated gameplay.
    I was bored rigid for first 3 hrs, tedious. I thought the game picked up after that & it kept my interest, but in a bad, unenjoyable way. The stereotyped politics & wokeness the creators have tried to shoehorn down your throat is laughable. I was actually relieved to start playing abby just to get away from the wooden character of Dina. All characters have been stripped of any likeability. The whole thing is bleak & pointless. It makes me wonder if ND delayed this game because they realised they'd created a turd and sought desperately to polish it.I thought the game had ended after abbys first bossfight with ellie but no, they decided to drag it on for a second non sensical confrontation ( which felt like dlc). An utterly pointless sequel besmirching the memory of the first..which I replayed immediately after just to restore my faith. RIP to a franchise that promised and delivered then slapped the face of its fanbase..

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My score is 6 for this game, because this is not BEST GAME EVER or WORST PS GAME EVER. First 12 hours shows Ellies revenge and after that we play as Ebby 10 hours... I think better play in turn as Ellie and Ebby. We understand motivation of both characters, but in the first fight of both charecters, I had questions - "What just happend? I've just played as Abby... and why?? Game needed showed only 1 hour for Abby and what she is going to do and other 25 hours gameplay as Ellie! Why??". Gameplay as Abby at the fifth hour became SO BORING. I didn't care about asian kids, but I understood, Neil wanted show, how Abby becaming better. I thought we will see something new... but we get **** by Naughty Dog. They added couple monsters and dogs... Ok new aim for bow it is that, what I've really like of new things. I replayed first part and after that completed second part and there is only 1 big difference is graphic. I waited for that final, what I thought. For me Joel revealed more selfish, end of first game is not right and Joel standed him. Main problem is, than you play and play, but you get bored and start play another game. I can say 1 thing - TLOU2 is boring game, but with right end. Expand

This game does not deserve the 0-4/10 range of reviews i believe that's an unfair representation of the game, equally it does not deserve the 8.5-10/10 range that is also, in my opinion, a biased representation of the game. This game is, realistically, somewhere around the 5-8/10 level, depending on your personal preferences. To some it will be bitterly disappointing and to others it will tick many boxes. I think the reason people give it the extremely low scores is partly due to extremely high expectations, this has a lot to do with the previous game and the overall problem of 'hype' which leads to unhealthy high expectations and inevitable let down, they also feel like they were. at times, lied to. A lot of things in this game were misrepresented in the marketing and that is unfair to them. Personal i would give this game a 7.5/10.
    It is dragged down primarily by the story structure, pacing and narrative as well as tired gameplay mechanics which aren't improved upon much when compared to tje first game. It is pushed up by visuals, sound design and representation and some (albeit not many) instances of good writing.
    Ultimately i would wait till its on sale but its worth experiencing at some point just not at its released price point.

Gameplay and immersion are the only saving grace, and being immersed in the pile of garbage that is this movie is hardly a good experience. I was not even going to leave a bad review of the game until I saw the Devs' response ot the backlash and how out of touch it was and how it attempted to shift the blame on the players for their own poor writing.

    Please don't read if you haven't finished the game yet. SPOILERS BEGIN here on-wards.
    ---------------
    I will write and tell my side of observation divided between different areas of the game, here goes:

    1. Gameplay:
    The best physics I have seen in any game. The jumping was a little off, many of the times the blocks that were supposed to be climbed - looked like something to be climbed on.
    Sprinting and crouching are some of the best in game business.
    2. Action
    The gore in the game. OMG!!! The best. Tarantino, and South Korean blood splatters. The great b-grade cinematic when it comes to actions.
    3. Characters from Part I
    Grown to become very mellow, you can feel their exhaustion. Love Tommy being the brave brother he is, a great supporting actor and the sniper he showers on Abby and Manny. Best boss fight.

    4. New Character
    I am not sure if the writers did this intentionally or they were over confident with their skill, or thought of consumers stupid.

    5. Plot
    Game of Thrones season 8! nothing more. What we loved about the previous part was the subtlety and consequential things happening to main character caused by a chain of other small incidents. Part II on other hand just throws in scenarios out of blue. Kills supporting character in a seconds to put some shock value, but I personally couldn't feel much for the character, no guilt or regret. The death of Sam and Henry in part 1 moved most of us. It was instant, yes. But it effected us.

    Whereas, in Part II they make Jesse a likable character, Manny, a badass, and Mel a sweet fighter. But none of their death makes the player feel anything.

    And my god The end. ooofff.... So much fight, struggle, pain and hate. for what? Na da! naught! You have no choice in either kill or let her go. If they let user decide this small part, like RDR 2 did with main character in the final chapter.. Things and ratings would have been very different.

    I love the fights, the action, the mechanics. and as an IT person myself, the game mechanic are magnificent. But they fall prey to the GOT-8ish plot line.

    6. Acting
    Loved every single scene joel was available in, Troy baker did great job with the voice of Joel miller. You can't help but still love Joel and Ellie's flaws and perfections. And my god Joel still a badass till the last breath he takes.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I feel like this game had left me torn, it's not as bad as some people make it out to be, and there are things to be enjoyed in this game overall. The atmosphere, environments, and music are beautiful, making this a solid game but where TLOU2 falls flat is with its story and its characters.

    The game is centered around Ellie and Abby's quest for vengeance, and while we see Abby get hers we don't see Ellie get her own closure. Considering Naughty Dog's message I feel like Ellie should've killed Abby at the end but still lost the things she loved as a consequence of her actions.

    For Abby, I feel Naughty Dog really wanted us to like her as a character by trying to humanize her especially with her inclusion with Lev. While I enjoyed their interactions, it would've been better to make her more of a flawed character. If Naughty Dog still wanted to uphold the message that "vengeance isn't the way" then I feel she could be a flawed character that does bad things, feels guilty about it but at the same time tries to do good things in order to redeem herself (ex. Having Lev escape Santa Barbara while she fights Ellie). However, that doesn't erase the actions she committed and in the end, as her actions would end up catching up with her.

    If they wanted to make a message about vengeance then they should've had us kill Abby but made us realize that vengeance is only temporary closure and doesn't erase the pain, and loss that we have to feel because it doesn't bring the people we love back and that there are consequences to seeking for vengeance such as death and destroying the people you love around you.

    I also feel this story lacks cohesiveness compared to the first and that is due to the constant backtracking we have to do in these flashbacks. If Naughty Dog were to make the events in TLOU2 go in chronological order, not only would that make the game longer but give us more moments between characters such as Ellie and Joel.

    The Last of Us 2 tries to make a story about vengeance and how it has its consequences, but its resolution is unsatisfying. I believe as Ellie they should've shown more of her stages of grief with Joel, but also we should receive that resolution that both have made amends with one another about Joel's actions in the first game. However, the end of the game made me feel like we don't get any closure for Ellie's character nor we get any acceptance that Joel is truly gone leaving me empty and a bitter taste in my mouth.

    Overall, I thought TLOU2 was a solid game but it falls flat with its the message and its storytelling that could use a couple of fixes. If Naughty Dog is planning to make a sequel, I'll be interested, but I'll probably not buy it.

    They try to be 'deep' with this game, but didn't commit to the writing I doubt they ever questioned themselves. A good theory is the director and the writers were just ego struck, this type of thing happens a lot. Any competent or even amateur writer would have fixed these issues, I'm sure there were some inside issues within the company/development for basic writing techniques/rules not to be in the end product.

This game is above average game play wise, i was constantly on the edge of my seat in combat, fully emerged in the beautifully crafted world, but the story didn't do justice. Half the game seems like a DLC that no one asked for, and as a player who went in knowing nothing of the leaks or even trailers... I was so disappointed. I don't want to play as Abby after she kills Joel, which instantly made her the villain to me. The constant Abby = good Ellie = bad is borderline offensive. Abby pets dogs? Ellie kills them. Ellie kills a pregnant lady and instantly regrets and is mortified by her actions, while Abbys gets to say "good" to Dina's with a knife to her throat. And again, you want me to sympathize for these character. After all that they did, and all that their friends did. I don't care how sweet the Owen character is after i killed him 4 hours ago. I just don't care. The gameplay is good, so its above a 5. The original was a 10/10 in my opinion, and the lack of a good story here brings it down 4 points instead of the usual 1 for my reviews. Shame. Expand

    I didnt like - the story, the characters (i even found myself disliking ellie) it felt like playing a teeny horror movie at times, the lack of chemistry with the characters, Joel's fate.

    Overall, i didn't like the game thst much, i do feel pretty disappointed really, and i di feel a bit upset with what happened to joel (i know its a game, and its a story too) but he was such a great character, and i would have loved to play another game with just him and ellie, but it is what is is, i wont be buying the 3rd if they do release a new installment, and i wont be replaying this game either.

All the so called "religious" people in this game are religious fanatics who want to kill and torture a transgender person. As if all religious people from every religion were like that but apparently after the world ended, ended all types of non-marxist stereotypes of religious people and religious groups. There are no liberals among them. None of them loves others. All of them are basically New Testament era pharisees. This game is discriminating against religion and religious people. It also discriminates religious liberals when it claims that only hateful bigots survived the end of the world. All the "good guys" are non-religious people and I'll say this again, none of the "religious" people in this game help the transgender person against others of their own group. What adds up to the irony of that all was the claim of the developers of the game to say that there's moral ambiguity because they picture both the villains background and the Ellie's background. But as faithful Marxists the development team forgot that even after the end of the world there would be people who joined the religious fanatics but then disagreed with them but for one reason or another decided to not obey their rules as strictly. This has been shown to happen in religious groups in the past and is happening in many western countries today. What I described happened during the 16th century in Germany. Google Martin Luther. Yeah, after the end of the world only liberals can think for themselves according to Naughty Dog. Expand

    execution left a lot to be desired, flashback scenes could've been better being actual playable non flashback scenes, i.e the flashback of the dance at seth's bar could've been at the start to make me feel for the new characters i would be spending a lot of time with.

    really dissapointed, the last of us part 1 is my favourite game ever, with my favourite characters in any video game, i find myself daydreaming about joel and ellie and how they would react in certain scenarios or how they would be in the normal world, i'm really that invested.

    this isnt a terrible 'SJW mess by Neil **** it had good intentions, just really unsatisfying execution. Neil did drop the ball with the writing this time around though.

Killing off your main character, the character people connect with and love is a mistake. Sorry for the Telltale walking dead spoiler, but killing Lee to play as cutsie Clementine was a mistake and killing Joel so Ellie takes stage is one too. It's not a anti feminist thing to keep your main character a man when there are women in the game.

    To say I'm disappointed would be an understatement. I feel like I just lost a good friend. Without going into a ton of detail, the story almost completely misses the mark for me personally. Poor pacing, inconsistent and unbelievable character motives and behaviors, plot holes and coincidences galore, baffling plot decisions...it's just such a shame. To be clear, despite those problems, it's not a bad story. It's quite good in some ways. But the direction was just way off for me personally.

    The animation, voice acting, level design, and world they've created are amazing. Gameplay gets tedious and grueling, but I can deal with it. The only problem with the game is the story, but that's really its big pull. I don't know how they could get the original so right and the sequel so wrong. Also, I had no problem with any of the supposed "SJW" elements in the game. They didn't feel like a focus and didn't detract from the story.

    Honestly, I'm not at all interested in the Last of Us' world anymore. I don't even think I would play a part 3, and I hope they don't make one. Maybe after the shock wears off I'll feel differently. I hope Naughty Dog licks their wounds and learns from their mistakes on this one. Lots of people love the direction the game's story took. I can only say I can't disagree more.

Overall the gameplay, graphics, the performance by the characters, and music are superb and should be applauded for years to come. Unfortunately, the main purpose and drive of the story was very poorly executed. I can see where the developers are going in terms of what they wanted out of the story, but it just was not well thought out. The pacing was terrible and honestly the entire time I was playing after a big main characters death, it was just a drag to play. I felt depressed but also at the same time bored and not intrigued by what was happening in the storyline. What kept having me come back to the game was a game play because it was so good. I understand that you lose everything after revenge, but the way the story of revenge was organized felt pushed and non-deserved. There were also many points in a story There were also many points in a story where there was just to many things the gamer had to “believe in” in order to drive the storyline forward that made me scratch my head and think, this is what a writer who probably makes over a million dollars a year decided to mark into his/her script?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Gameplaywise and all the other stuff (cinematics, animations, acting etc.) this game did everything better than part I. Practically perfect. Though I got to say that I had wished for weapon melee animations. Going from adsing to meleeing is far from fluid but that's a bit nitpicky.

    What breaks this game for me are the characters and the story told. The story in and of itself is fine. As a standalone game I would've given it a 7 probably. The message of "revenge is bad" has been done a million times before and wasn't standing out too much from others imho, so definitely not a 10.

    What makes this a 5 in my eyes then? Apart from weird and uncharacteristic character behaviour at parts and subpar pacing - it's the whole premiss and tone. It's the expectation I and many others had going into this story (I played through the game spoilerfree, currently on seattle day 1 of my 2nd playthrough - just wanted to throw that out before I forget). While TLOU1 had many heartwarming moments in a depressing world, showing the light of Joel's and Ellie's relationship in an endless sea of darkness, TLOU2 didn't offer such moments. At the end the game was 24h of pure depression and 1 hours of the beautiful museum flashback. People that were hoping to explore the relationship of Joel and Ellie were left hanging. Waiting 7 years for your favourite character to disappear right at the start of the story is a real mood killer. Telling the story through flashbacks and the eyes of the villain was a great idea but in my eyes poorly executed. For me personally it never clicked. The second I got to play as Abby, there was always this one though lingering in my mind: "You killed Joel, I don't care anymore." And making us play as and get to know Abby AFTERWARDS always felt forced. You knew right away what the intention of that bit was. Yes, people have different perspectices and in her mind she was justified. But making me like an unlikeable character when it was clear that I was just playing this whole 10 hour bit for this idea alone - to make me like her, to make me understand her. It just did not work out. I would've been much more sympathetic if I had got to know Abby beforehand. If I did not think of her action at the start of the game as IRREDEEMABLE!

В первой половине игры события развиваются вполне логично, исходя из концовки первой части, но так глупо...Теперь мы не ждем 3 часть, молодцы создатели, вы потеряли и фанатов, и деньги.... Понимаю, почему главные герои ищут возмездия, но какой ценой? Насилие и убийства всех и вся, что встает у нас на пути. Что, что за деградация полюбившихся нам персонажей?!!! Что вытворяет Элли по ходу истории?! Она уже больше не подросток с горячей кровью, она слишком многое пережила для своих лет. Мы помним ее другой, она была рассудительнее и смышленее для своего возраста. Куда все это делось? Все это перекрылось ненавистью и отключились мозги? Персонажи, напавшие на нас в самом начале игры, тоже общаться не умеют? Им крайне необходимо было натворить дичи и, ничего нормально не объяснив, нажить себе врагов?! А как же завязать сюжет? Это что, лучшая идея сценаристов?! Идем дальше. Вторую половину игры я не проходил, я пробежал. Бой, не бой, артефакты... все это было не важно и не интересно. Нашему вниманию предоставили нового персонажа, за которого заставили играть. Мне не симпотизирует новая героиня ни характером, ни внешностью. Как бы ее поступки не оправдывали историей ее жизни, это не цепляет. Да, посочувствовал, принял новую информацию, но мне по-прежднему все равно. Кто сказал, что нам будет интересно наблюдать за войной ранее неизвестных нам группировок. Экшен, экшен, экшен? Как в затертых и надоевших боевиках. Да, вы показали ужасы войны и утрату - это всегда страшно, тяжело и оставляет в душе брешь... но это чужая история!!! Для нас The last of us - это история Джоэла и Элли! Ведь еще столько всего не рассказано про них, еще осталось так много вопросов. Мы привязались к ним, мы пережили вместе с ними все трудности их пути в первой части, мы готовы продолжить и дальше делать это. Музыкальная составляющая тоже потеряла свою изюминку, только лишь создает фон, но не ведет историю, она просто есть. А ведь именно музыка в первой части была сильной стороной.

I loved the characters and there separate stories and flashback sequences they where amazing the character development was great but the plot itself was ok it was just force feeding the message that revenge is bad that's why I lowered it from my initial 9 but it was a good game i would recommend it Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Прошёл игру полностью, она шикарна за исключением сюжета. А сюжет в ней главное! Не поймите меня неправильно - задумка крутая «серая мораль», ко-ко-ко, «история о мести» ко-ко-ко. Игра словно ужин в одном из лучших ресторанов мира, но вместо приятной тебе компании с тобой за столом сидит Драхман и жидко попёрдывает :/ Игра обязательна к прохождению Expand

Los paisajes y modelado es bello que más se puede decir. Los personajes, son mal desarrollados, no se empatiza con ellos o al menos a mi me paso eso, no sentí emoción alguna en la mayoría de los casos, solo eventos a realizar con ellos. La historia no me agrado, los cortes para moverse en la historia fueron incómodos, quitan la emoción de algunas momentos antes que fueron frenéticos, la historia no la sentí tan bien contada y me pareció más una novela que se pudo contar sin necesidad de los infectados por lo que sentí que perdió la idea de ser que dio el juego anterior. Jugabilidad 8/10

    Считаю я созрел до оценки в метакритике. Отходил от игры , от ощущении достаточно долго. Даже не знаю как оценить, какую оценку поставить , что написать.

    А трейлер просто плевок в лицо фанатов, понимаю что они хотели скрыть детали и сюжет игры. Но кто хочет, тот избежит от спойлеров, как сделал это я. Гемплей просто на высоте, детализация и взгляд не мелочи, это Noughty Dog умеют . Мысли просто как каша........ извините.

    Good gameplay, but I don't appreciate the story shoving crap down my throat constantly. The UI is worse than the first game somehow.

    The story is weak, and it’s a story-driven game, it’s not worth buying completely waste of time.

    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]
