    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game, its story and most importantly its characters feel absolutely inorganic, fabricated to represent a forced diversity, while ignoring and neglecting its own plot and setting. The cure plot line, the big objective in this setting, is simply abandoned like a puppy in the middle of the road, the revenge plot gets old fast, playing as the antagonist is one of the worst decisions of the whole game (said antagonist's character is terrible), the way they killed off Joel is laughable, the over-the-top torturing of the main character is simply painful to watch and the ending is pure **** because it feels like everything you've strived for and accomplished in TLOU 1 and 2 was for nothing. Absolutely ****ty sequel.… Expand

    Despite a much anticipated return of the best game in years naughty dog has created such a disappointing sequel to one of the greatest games ever. I am not transphobic or anything like that. You can base a game in an apocalypse and have a "trans" character. Then have that character kill the most beloved story mode character ever. Sad to see the fall of this company

    I don't get the point of the game, So Ellie is ok killing all this people that even wasn't in the room where Joel was killed but she doesn't kill the one who hurt her the most by killing him I don't understand lol
    And also If she wasn't sure about going to kill her the second time why did she leave her family to go after Abby? It doesn't makes sense at all.    … Expand

    Absolute travesty of a game, when the original had subpar gameplay but a good story to carry it, then this has one of the worst stories I've ever seen in a game + the still subpar gameplay, you have the recipe for disaster you've brought upon yourselves, can't cover it up with fancy graphics now.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spoiler separate at bottom. Beautiful to look at but other then that just a horrible disappointment, weak story which just got progressively worse as game progressed. Unlike the original it left no mark on me but indifference. All the subtle nuance of the original replaced with a simplistic viciousness. It's so blatantly obvious & repetitive with it's message & themes. Treats it's audience like dumb 9 year olds. Overall just a big let down from what should of been a great end to PS4. Thank god for Cyberpunk & CDProjektRed! Oh and Ghost of Tsushima.

    SPOILER: i really didn't like being forced to play half the game as the killer of one of my favourite 2 characters from the first game. Not sure why developers thought any fan of the original would be OK with that. I mean we loved the original & it's 2 antagonists. Truly feel in love with them & their story so this felt like a kick in the teeth & almost a mockery & disrespect to the player base.    … Expand

    After waiting over 5 years and a wonderfull part 1, I expected this game to be at least a 7,5/10. But after only a few hours, i realized that the story isn't nearly as good and coherent as the first one was. If i am objectively this game is a 4/10 but subjectivly i can only give it a 1,5/10 because my expectations were so high.

Makes for weird gameplay, you are happy to lose. It sucks. The ridiculous added characters and groups. I could of come up with such a better story line naughty dog. I mean come on. The fact this gameplay is no where near as smooth and flawless as the first. They changed they way you craft and changed the ability to hear enemies, it’s not as good. Overall an honest score is a 2. I’m actually replaying the first after being so disgusted by the second and I’m relearning everything I LOVE about the original. Such a good honest story about compassion and love. The second is an agenda based load of crap. They try to create feelings in the game and you cannot do that. Anyways rant over I legit hated the game Also the first game took place over a year in all different states and seasons. This load of crap takes place in 3 days in Seattle... literally Seattle.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There are two things in this game that seriously pisses me off.

    Firstly, the fact that they killed of Joel is actually fine with me. I get it, create drama, a new story line, seek revenge, etc.
    But the way they did it is absolutely disgusting. It's as if this Joel is a totally different character from the first game. They turned him absolutely moronic, made him do a mistake he'd never do and let him die off in an ambush without giving him any honor.
    Are you seriously trying to tell me that Joel, someone with more than 25+ year of experience in that post apocalyptic world, suddenly starts trusting random strangers who appeared on his patrol and walks straight up into their camp without checking whether it's actually save for him or not?
    Like wtf? That's the total opposite of what he did in the very first game when he was on the way to bring Ellie to the fireflies and had his first encounter with raiders.
    Why would someone who is normally always cautious, someone who has killed and made A LOT of enemies suddenly turn so gullible and stupid? Running into a camp full of uniform wearing people. I **** can't.

    Secondly, why the **** does it seem like as if there are only women in the game?
    First off, I have nothing against women, i think it's actually pretty cool that you find female enemies and Ellie is obviously awesome and dear to everyone's heart who played the first game.
    But aren't you taking it a bit too **** far?
    Disregarding the fact that Naughty Dog killed off their male main protagonist,
    they turned Ellie into a lesbian and made her have a female partner. Sure, it's fine, nothing original.
    It's not like any other goddamn game or movie with a female main protagonist tried to please the LGBT/feminist community by turning everything lesbian or by showing how women dont need men, etc.
    The main antagonist, Abby is also a woman. You know what? It's cool. Rarely seen and i'm fine with it.
    But why the **** are like 80% of the enemy human NPCs women? Aren't you making it too **** obvious who you are trying to please? I wouldn't be **** surprised to zoom in on infected and find a pair of boobs on every goddamn bloater.
    Underrepresenting females is not good, so you chose to overrepresent them? wtf?
    The reason this ****s me off is because the way youdo it is way too different from the first game. What, you are trying to tell me that most men suddenly died and only females are left in this world? It doesn't even make **** sense. But I guess Joel killed of most of the male goons in the first game huh.

    No opinion on the story yet, since i haven't finished it yet. But it's already getting **** on here by everyone else so there really is no need for me to mention anything about it. But man, what a disappointment.    … Expand

    This game was a huge let down, I feel the foundations of the last game was totally destroyed by this mess of a story and game play. Should’ve left it at Part 1

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There was a correct way to write this story, using all the same character deaths and plot points. There was a correct way to make Abby more sympathetic of a character, by making the player play through more of the immediate aftermath of Joel's actions at the end of The Last of Us. If we had to play through 3-4 hours of a young Abby dealing with her father's death alone, the fall of the fireflies alone, her struggles with the Seraphites and joining the WLF alone all before the point where she killed Joel it would've added more tension to her first meeting with Joel, it would've given the player time to understand Abby's grief and rage. Instead it rushes all of its character development, wastes so much potential between Abby and Lev (the only character other than Yara that I actually liked and had sympathy for, at least among Abby's crew). Even Joel's burial is rushed, no broken Ellie and Tommy giving a eulogy. The only parts of this story which they actually took the time to flesh out were the Dina/Ellie romance, which I quite liked, and the Joel/Ellie flashbacks. I don't know how seven years can go by with this little character development going on, maybe there were too many ideas on the table that got scrapped, or maybe it is just plain laziness but this game's graphics and gameplay were ready for release; the story was premature. Too much shock value, Abby is too ruthless and feels too invulnerable in her play style for the player to actually see her as anything other than a brute who cheats with a comrade's boyfriend, almost knowingly kills a pregnant girl (thank god for Yara speaking some sense into her).

    The writers need to take a good hard look at themselves and the reaction to the story that is happening, yes some people are bigots and trashing it for bigoted reasons but I have read many reviews here and for every 1 bigoted review I see 9 disappointed fans. I now know I can't trust the reviews of critics or the trailers of Naughty Dog in their next release. I only wish now that I could have seen the version of TLoU 2 that Bruce Starley would've co-directed and Amy Hennig would've co-wrote. My heart goes out to all of the voice actors, artists, coders, and animators that have seen their hard work wasted on this weak shell of a story.

    Neil Druckmann needs to do some soul searching for what he's really trying to accomplish as a writer, there's pushing the limits of story telling and then there's relishing in butchery, butchering character development, butchering beloved characters, and butchering the fanbase.    … Expand

What we care about is a murderer killed players' favorite character in this game and we do had a chance to get revenge after hard work, but this chance was taken away by Naughty Dogs.

    Loved “Last of Us” but this game is irredeemable. Why they went this direction with the story I don’t know but key characters make decisions that COMPLETELY go against what their character should or would do. This game had the opportunity to be something great but instead it tries to shock you and pull a Game of Thrones season 8 on you.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The death of Joel its ok, I can handle that and I were thinking he would die, but the form he died was terrible, he died with no reason and they throw him to the trash because yes, he deserve a better end.

    And other point, do NOT put politics in videogames and you could be thinking “omg he is an absolute homophobic guy and thats why he hates the game” but no, avery single character in the game could be heterosexual and the game will be worse, because everyone has a determinated personality, since the first game Ellie has been lesbian and we Love that because its part of her personality, but everything you do in this game is just throw it all to the trash like Joel and I think the developers of the game just wanted to make every one politically “happy” and just absolutely ignore all the fandom they had.

    In conclusion this game tried to be politically correct, but they failed to everyone specially to their fans    … Expand

    Terrible game. Not only does the story completely ruin the playthrough of the first game but the game mechanics of this one barely add anything new. Can’t rate this game low enough. If you really want to play it just wait a month or so and get a used one for $2 because everyone will be throwing this one out.

    História completamente maluca com uma gameplay que já era o máximo do casual pra ser casual com bugs. Destruíram o que foi construído no primeiro jogo e ainda teve auto inserção do diretor pra comer personagem. Francamente, TLOU parte 2 deveria ser refeito do zero.

    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]
