    It didn't really have anything to do with the first game. If they left playing as Abby out I would have liked it alot more because it felted stretched out. This feels like a dlc not an actual game

    El juegos es bastante bueno, su gameplay, música, el apartado técnico y ambientación son hermosos, pero la historia.... Se nota un desprecio total por los personajes que dieron vida a esta historia, más el echó de obligarte a sentir empatía por un personaje como Abby, siendo que no entrega nada interesante a esta.

    Really, the truth lies somewhere in the middle. No, the game certainly isn't bad and doesn't deserve a score of lower than five or something. But the critic reviews are completely undeserved, too. The game isn't a 10/10 or even an 8/10. You could argue 7, but that is generous.

You could argue 7, but that is generous.
    From a technical standpoint, TLOU2 is amazing. You can clearly see the hard work put into the graphics, music and voice acting. The gameplay is fun. But the praise the first game of the series got mainly wasn't due to technical stuff. It was such a success because of the story and the characters and that's why part 2 should be judged for those factors as well. And they just don't hold up.
    Part 1 was great because it was ambigous. As the player you had to judge the character's actions for yourself and there was room for interpretation. The writing was subtle and emotional. Yes, there were tense moments, shocking moments and sadness. But it was balanced out with lightheartesness and tragic beauty.
    Part 2 throws that out of the window. It's one horrible emotional gut punch after another. Horrible things happen – but they don't make you pause and reflect because it's just a neverending onslaught of misery. At a certain point you stop feeling connected to the story because it's so incredibly obvious these things happen purely for shock value. A lot of contrived stuff as well. The main characters have so much plot armour – they're saved at the last moment again and again and again.
    I could look past that, honestly. But what really disappointed me was how heavy handed the writing was. Gone are the subtleties. It's so obvious how the game wants to make you feel throughout the story – to a manipulative degree. But despite this I never felt connected to the characters because I was never onboard with any of their horrible and often times stupid choices.

    Spoiler:
    I realy don't care how many dogs I get to pet as Abby, I still don't like her. The writers wanted the player to feel for her so badly, but I can't bring myself to do it. Even if she gets the most fun gameplay sequences. The problem I have with Abby is that she never ever reflects on her own actions. She's the one who encouraged her father to perform the operation that would have killed Ellie. And she never once questions her decision or her father's. She thinks she's justified in the beginning of the story and she still feels that way at the end. She even becomes Lev's Joel and kills her own people to save him. And yet she never makes that connection and never feels bad for what she did.

    I was disappointed in Ellie's character development as well. She flip flops about whether or not she should kill Abby all the time. The story might have been salvageable if it had ended on the farm. But now I don't even feel invested in what happens to any of the characters in the inevitable third installment.

    My biggest gripe with the game is that it tries to make you feel bad about playing it. What kind of decision is that? The message of the game is "revenge is bad, don't kill people". Ellie and Abby lose so much because they can't grasp that simple idea. And in the end both of them refrain from killing each other when they get the chance. But while the game tries to hammer down that moral standpoint, it makes you kill endless amounts of NPCs and makes it fun to pick them off one by one. That kind of makes the message of the game hypocritical. The whole story revolves around the consequences of Joel killing one NPC in the first installment. And here we are, killing hundreds more. So TLOS2 is basically a guy wearing leather boots and a coat made from polar bear cubs preaching about the moral superiority of vegan food.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The only reason I'm giving a five is because that score is meant for the Naughty Dog team who did all the wonderful work in combat, puzzles and visuals and not the story writing/screenplay. The story gets a ZERO from me and hence the score is FIVE. This game is an excellent example of how a game can be ruined if there's no proper story to tell. Even the stunning visuals couldn't save it from the plotholes, bad character depiction and insulting storytelling that was shown. The writer did no character justice - Ellie, Joel, Tommy, Abby - none of them were relatable. The former 3 had completely different personalities compared to part 1 and Abby's story should have been kept at first so that she can be relatable.
    Other plot holes were the unrealistic demonstration of including a pregnant woman in combat, unrealistic body figures for women, men showing callousness during combat way more than they actually do, showing women as weak and unable to kill the last person they should let go even though she has killed SO MANY people shows that this game hates both men and women.

    The image of LGB community was also shown really bad, the image they are trying to portray was so frivolous and mindless. This is not how LGB community is, just because they love the same sex or two sex does not mean that they have no morals or good ideals. They have been portrayed so disgustingly that people will feel like discriminating against them even more, thanks to this game.

    Transgenderism is a thing that exists during our times because people are not trying to survive, they are just living without care in the world. In a post apocalyptic scenario, no one would be thinking whether they "feel" like a man or woman, everyone is trying hard to survive here and such things will not even cross their mind.

    The story and scene setting is so unrealistic, it's as if nothing had been thought through and the writer just wanted to sell a game for money and not because he loves TLOU1.

    This game is one of the worst games for me because
    1) A game is made because you have a story in mind, didn't seem like that case with this one.
    2) A game is made to detox you from the world so that you can face the real world again, this game didn't help me do that...hell it's not even a game, this story would have done better if it were a movie.

    Very disappointed at the writers in Naughty Dog.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was wary going into this game as I'd seen so much noise on social media and youtube about the plot and Naughty Dogs behaviour around release, but I was determined to ignore all that and make my own mind up. Here is the long story short - if you liked the way the first game played and looked - you'll like this one. They haven't done anything revolutionary with the mechanics etc, and the game looks amazing - the ruined seattle and santa location really immerse you into the desolate destroyed world. That being said, it did become a bit samey with just either stealthing or shooting your way through alternating hordes of people, or infected. With the odd added dog or shambler to mix it up. The story I felt a bit let down - the pacing of the game was weird, jumping around in the memories of backwards/forwards/backwards/forwards was clever...but just took me out of the immersion a bit. I like the way they brought the new groups in - the WLF, and Scars...but the newer characters that had any kind of role just felt a bit "throwaway" if that makes sense? Naughty Dog obviously set out to make a fairly gritty shocking game, and they succeeded..but at the detriment of having a good solid story which newer players to the genre could have loved. As I played on and got to the 20+ hour mark, I started to get a bit bored of the same grind and just wanted to speed through sections as fast as poss to progress the story. All in...this had huge potential, but it just didnt quite live up to my expectations (having loved the first game). I hope they do better if there is a 3rd installment.… Expand

Where I think it falls short is in the structure of the narrative. I won't go into any spoilers, but never mind the main points of contention among fans of the first game. Whether you enjoy the story and characters or not, TLoU2 suffers from the inescapable feeling that it is actually two games duct-tapped together at the center and end. It makes sympathizing with and caring about most of the characters conflicting at best and - at worst - impossible for some.

    Personally, I really appreciated what the game was trying to do, and I enjoyed my time with it overall. However the flaws in the writing and pacing are simply unavoidable. If you just want more of what the first game offered, TLoU2 will surely disappoint you. But if you're like me, and you're looking for something a bit different from the first, there are absolutely reasons to like this one.things    … Expand

And it's with great disappointment that the 5/10 I gave this game, is mostly due to those factors alone.
    I knew heading in that this was gonna be a story about hate, contrary to the previous game, which was about love. And even being mentally prepared for some events which were bound to happen regardless, that wasn't enough for me to overlook the major flaws in it's character continuity and confusing motivations. The pacing was horrible, many times making me just want to stop playing for the day. It's a shame, because I think, on paper, this could actually be a great game, and some changes to the structure could easily fix some of the most problematic issues the fan base has with the game regarding a certain character.
    One major problem I had that continuously made me roll my eyes was how I could clearly see the writers intention when presenting me with forced sections of the game. One of the most basic rules in writing is to not think of yourself as smarter than your readers, it will always backfire. This constant feeling of being spoon fed emotions through a cracked one way mirror made me think the writer looks at me as if I'm an idiot who can't tell the difference between a real plane and a spoon filled with lies.
    Long story short, I think it's fine to change the whole theme and feel of a sequel compared to it's predecessor, but there needs to be a solid reason to do so. The story tried to present something meaningful and deep, but it's shortcomings resulted in a shallow and convoluted narrative that by the end of the experience, left me feeling like my time was wasted and my trust in Naughty Dog corrupted.    … Expand

    Cinematics and visuals are beautiful. Gameplay slightly better than first one and the acting is top notch. I didnt expect the sequel to be better than than the first, which was a masterclass, but thought this would get closer did. The storyline was a gamble and it didn't quite have the payoff but overall still a good game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My honest take on the game

    First off, my english is not perfect so sorry in advance, and sorry for the long post, not good at writing either.


    A highly anticipated game for so many years by so many people. Including me.

    First off, we all have seen the trailers. It was hyping us all up for the sequel. Looking back now i see how they have lied and falsely markedet this game. Should be illegal.

    The story is decent, not good but decent. And by that i mean the plot is understandable. But it is not okay for this game. As the first game was my favorite game of all time. The sequel just takes a huge pile of **** and throws it all over you and spits on you. Thats how it feels. For the story is where this game fails. I must say credit where credits due. The game mechanics in this game is very much improved from the first installement. Its fluid and feel really good, but thats all there is of good things i have to say about this game.

    Years and years of waiting and anticipating this game. We get it, now i wanna be reasonable when reviewing this game. But i can’t be reasonable with how this game is.

    SPOILERS

    How can someone in their right mind decide it was a good idea to kill a such beloved charachter like Joel in such a disrespectful way. And topping it off make us play half the game as the person who killed your most loved character in a video game. It baffels me. You want us to feel for this Abby? No way. How you can write a masterpiece of a game, and follow up with this disaster.

    You might feel at times the real Naughty Dog is held at gunpoint after you complete the game. Like this aint Naughty Dog.    … Expand

    The good:
    -graphics (next gen graphics, lot of work has been put into this game). -Sound and music is again on point like in the first game giving you the immersion of    A huge fan of the first instalment and waited 8 years for this game, but to only feel like i did when the credits rolled in game of thrones S8 & disney Starwars trilogy. I will go straight to the point in this review:
    The good:
    -graphics (next gen graphics, lot of work has been put into this game).
    -Sound and music is again on point like in the first game giving you the immersion of being in a apocalyptic world.
    The bad:
    - Story: The obvious is the storytelling that doesn't compare to the first game, i do understand it is a bold move by Neil but having social agenda and shoving such themes to gamers not only break the immersion/realism of the flow of the story but also creates unnatural events which i can only say to subvert expectation of those who play it. Of course i won't spoil, but the game tries to pull a red wedding moment without any build up and utimately just reminds me of the the 'iron fleet' plot hole in Game of thrones S8.
    - Characters: The game forces a femenism agenda that utimately fails to portray them as strong and independent characters (the game seems to insult more than portray femenism in a positive manner). I know anita sarkeesian took some sort of contribution or influence on druckman in writing some of these characters, and it shows with all female characters taking all the glory and moments that are not earned while the men are seen as 'bigots'. Now there are heaps of games and movies out there that do illustrate the natural earned independent female role for example THE LAST OF US PART 1. All characters have flaws, fears and weaknesses which most of these notions must be overcomed in order to develop throughout the game and thus creates a realistic and likeable characters. This game however provides you characters with titles and assume that will be enough for you to either symphathise or like these characters such as 'pregnant lady going to the frontline', 'bastard child that is on roids' & 'transgender daughter living in a viking esque society'. These characters could have been explored more in dept and had a potential to build a connection between the player with these characters but the writer just chose to list and shove as many social agenda message as possible. Worst part is all characters we know in the first game are completely written off with actions and dialogue that do not make any sense with their personalities such as Tommy for example. Again this can be compared with the poor writing in GOT S8 with daenerys who spent 7 seasons building up trust with the people and hopefully applying the same method in westeros... and we know how that went.

    Gameplay: The game is essentially the same as part 1 with only a few new infected class, an ability to prone/jump and human AI having different weapons according to what society they belong to. There are less puzzles than the first game such as the rope and rubbish bin to get you to places which is a disapointment. As a linear game it's expected from you to get from point A-B, would of been cool if they could introduce different branches that could provide different experiences to players and would increase the replayability.

    Overall as a standalone game it is a 5/10 and a wait for a massive sale (85%-90% OFF) as there are moments in this game that you can get enjoyment out of. However my score is a 1/10 for many reasons that is more related to the developer (Naughty Dog) and the director (Neil Druckman).
    Reason for the main score:
    1.A disgusting amount of cencorship to many honest critics and people who voice their concerns with the game (not able to take constructive critisim? not going to last long in a capitalistic society mate).

    2.Bullying reviewers and journalist who either mention any negativity of the game or it's development (which moves to my next point).

    3. Treatment of their staff: force to overwork their staff and have the audacity to hold off their checks after their contract has been fulfilled unless they fill an agreement form to not speak of how they are treated while employed at Naughty Dog. I know 'crunch' culture is a thing, but there is a fine line when you stripped not only their freedom at work but also their voice.

    4. Using bots/fans/followers to write negative reviews on well made games such as Ghost of Tsushima. A really coward and desperate method in trying to increase your rating for PS4 exclusive.

    Overall i have lost faith in Naughty dog and Neil Druckman and my only last sentence sums up what they have become. "A shamful display"- Shogun 2    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have finally finished this game and what a chore it was. This is the type of game that was so incredibly bad and lived up to none of the expectations I had, that I felt I needed to make an account just to review it. This is the type of game that if I were getting a prostate exam and I had the option to play a game and this was the only choice. I wouldn't play the game, I would focus intently on the exam instead. My first major gripe was the game was too long. Clocking in at almost 20 hours. If this is the type of game that's so bad that the only time I'm willing to even consider playing it is during a prostate exam I definitely don't want my prostate exams to last 20 hours and I also don't want to return that many times to equal 20 hours. My second major gripe is missed opportunities in the gameplay. You're going to introduce a completely new character and completely overlooked the possibility for new gameplay mechanics. Such as scavenging for all the necessary dietary supplements needed. We could have had mini games involved with eating massive amounts of protein and calories. Using a syringe to inject enhancements. Missed potential fun. but hey I'm not going to sit here and just talk about the bad stuff this game has, now on to the good stuff

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I would’ve liked this game if it were not for the fact that playing as Abby doesn’t go anywhere. It would’ve been good to start the game playing as her right in what are currently and basically flashbacks before Joel has a huge impact on her life. We would play her story until we hear Joel’s familiar voice, but without showing his character model to leave some secrecy. We then play what is the current beginning of the game until we reach the same point of Joel and Abby coming face-to-face and we go back to Abby’s perspective until Abby kills Joel. This would give her story the proper introduction and a satisfying conclusion. Then we play as Ellie as is currently in the game all the way through to the end. This would solve the unsatisfying gameplay conclusions. However, there is still the problem of the story shoving positive interactions from Abby and negative interactions from Ellie in order to attempt to make the player like Abby. This is manipulative and shows the developers knew that the character would be unlikeable due to the story thus far. It’s lazy and shows how little thought was put into the story. The gameplay and graphics can only do so much to bandage a game that has no multiplayer and is thus relying on it’s single-player story.… Expand

    The game keeps a lot of the core gaming mechanic that we love. It improves a bit, but too be honest not drastic changed in the 2nd one. I guess you can prone now.

    Visually this game looks amazing. Unfortunately i believe they could have made the story more compelling and actually get what they wanted without being so lazy. It isn't a great game.

    It isn't a great game. It would've been a fine stand alone, but when you are going off such an amazing first part. They just failed the 2nd time.

    The game would be an 8-9 if they had made a more realistic story. Too much plot armour and convinient twist.    … Expand

    I was a huge fan boy of the first one, it was one of my favorite games but this one disappointed me. The game is beautiful and smooth. The combat is greatly improved with the addition of crawling and silencers, But the story was not satisfying. I see what they were going for but it wasn’t executed properly. The game didn’t make me feel any emotion even in the “sad” parts. If you plan onI was a huge fan boy of the first one, it was one of my favorite games but this one disappointed me.

    The whole Last of us franchise is overrated. Played both games and none of them are good. The first game is decent at best, but the sequel is just boring, graphic is okay though. If you play games for graphic then this is the game for you

    The Graphics are amazing, the gameplay is outstanding, the story is super depressing and hard to play through. I don’t think it’s a bad game but it felt like a chore to get through the story because of how depressing it was. It’s worth a play through at least once if only for the graphics and gameplay. But you could wait for a sale. The platinum is one of Easiest I’ve seen in a naughty dogThe Graphics are amazing, the gameplay is outstanding, the story is super depressing and hard to play through.

    As someone who enjoyed the first last of us 2 this game was somewhat disappointing. Overall it’s a flawed corridor shooter that’s much weaker then the first game and questionable if they should have made the sequel. The graphics and world is easily the best part of the game and is one of the best looking and most detailed console game to date. The gameplay is pretty much copy and pasteAs someone who enjoyed the first last of us 2 this game was somewhat disappointing. Overall it’s a flawed corridor shooter that’s much weaker then the first game and questionable if they should have made the sequel. The graphics and world is easily the best part of the game and is one of the best looking and most detailed console game to date. The gameplay is pretty much copy and paste from the first game with not much new innovation. It has the same craft and perk system, the same stealth sections. The only new editions seems to be the edition of dogs as enemies. The gameplay is good but a little dated but won’t really offer much of a challenge. The Ai is also pretty stupid and typical of modern video games. Story wise the game is a complete mess and at times feels like a badly written fan fiction by a high school student. The story has a strange structure and is a standard revenge story that’s been done since the beginning of civilisation. Ellie is still a well written and interesting character, however the supporting cast is weak and forgettable. Also the game make bizarre choices with regards to Abby, not really giving any reason for the player to like or care about her. Also the story tends to repeat itself and big chunks of could be removed and it would still play out the same. In short it fails to live up to its predecessor and offers very little replay value.… Expand

    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]
