    Absolutely, completely and utterly stunning achievement. BOTW used to be my #1 game, it was nearly perfect... Yet, Naughty Dog has reached the peak of this industry, virtually everything in TLOU2 is impeccable. I can't believe how good this game is, and I terribly pity those who didn't feel what we've felt while playing it and finishing it.

    Lou2 is easily one of the top 3 games of this generation
    Game play wise is the Best of this gen. Camera, control, response, stealth, AI, animation, collision detection, aiming, craft, evade, fight all of these elements are perfect.
    Graphics easily a next gen launch titles in 60fps
    Story is Just a matter of personal opinion. For me is a very good and emotional Story.

What happened to Joel didn’t bother me. The flashbacks were a nice touch. Really the game was the perfect sequel and couldn’t ask for anything more.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While I could do with a slightly smaller game, this is a great game. The director has tried very hard to show multiple perspectives and he has managed it.
    I read a review which rated the game 0 because " killing Joel were wrong because any father that was in his place would have done the same thing". Well, I agreed with that sentiment completely in the first game since I would have done the same. However, with Abby's play-through I understood her motivations as well. The faceless monsters about to operate on Ellie became humanized and I could sympathize with their motivations.
    Also, I understood why Abby "would kill Joel - because he killed the only family she had remaining".
    The motivations are no longer back or white, just shades of grey. Beautiful game about revenge and how it consumes you and also about learning to let go.    … Expand

As someone that has been dealing with loss a lot this game helped me cuz i was able to strongly identify with the feeling to chase relieve and try everything to get a loved one back through certain actions. I think many people out there hating this game don´t actually really understand it and the emotional ambivalence it deals with. In my opinion this game is a progressive masterpiece and the reason it is so controversial comes from the very fact that it’s too progressive for the very culture that consumes it.

It's an absolute masterpiece at storytelling and incredibly gripping.

    To all the haters and review bombers I leave this message... if you thought that a certain death or scene was too dark and it upset you then you've missed the point entirely. It's a darker game. It's meant to reflect on these actions.
    The game is meant to reflect on war. How two sides can be both right and wrong at the same time. How revenge can twist people into the very people they hate. The best part? It keeps going... far beyond what you expect from a moral standpoint. It's good writing and doesn't deserve the tarnish so heavily. What did you expect from the game? Just look at the box art compared to the first and you'll know what to expect. One displays a destroyed world, characters looking back, danger, and loss of innocence. The other shows suffering, anger, and blood in a dark room.    … Expand

This game is set in a world where death is literally everywhere. And i see that some people got pissed because joel gets killed? And calling the game trash Lmao, But still it broke my heart to see him go like that at first, this didn’t make me hate the game or the story, instead it got me more hooked into the game filled with vengeance. the part 2 clearly highlights one thing, there are two **** sides to every story and you shouldn’t be too quick to judge, once i got to play as Abby and learned her story, joels death is completely justified, or better yet he got what he deserved. And to be honest, i got much more attached to Abby once i got to play as her, and it shows that just like ellie, she’s a good person in general, and the ending was exactly how it should be, it felt wrong and uncomfortable trying to kill abby at the state she was in, and that’s how it should be, because abby spared ellies life not once, and that makes the two of them even.

    I have to be completely honest, I’ve not finished the game, not by a long shot. But I love it. Just as I loved part 1. Don’t be a dick and ruin a games’s reputation by giving misleading critique.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Video games are really good at delivering catharsis through violence. The first game did that when you were forced to slaughter all those people to save a character you cared about. Bioshock Infinite did something similar when you had to save Elizabeth. Or God of War with Atreus. But for the first time that I've seen, The Last of Us Part II tried to emit a DIFFERENT emotion through violence. You as the player were not in line with the motivations of your characters. Naughty Dog created a disconnect between player and character that heightened a feeling of discomfort when having to commit violent acts. I've never seen that narrative technique done through a video game. As a result, certain violent scenes WERE not cathartic. They felt wrong. Beating up Abby at the end felt wrong. Beating up Ellie as Abby felt wrong. Killing Owen and Mel felt wrong etc... the developers purposefully robbed us of catharsis in order to effectively deliver its thematic message about the futility of revenge, hatred, division etc... it was a NEW usage of the narrative toolset of the medium that I really have to applaud and commend. Yes, the game has problems (i think it bit off more than it could chew, and left certain characters underdeveloped and archetypical) and perhaps the first game was more cohesive and better paced... but the majority of the criticism seems to come from an unfortunate misreading of the plot or a lack of appreciation for darker themes. I'm overall very happy with this sequel. I'd more honestly give it a 9/10 but I think it's necessary to offset some of the troll reviews here.… Expand

    I played this game blind, without knowing any of the controversies or leaks, and without reading a single review beforehand. And what I got was an incredible experience that haunted me for days, and still has me thinking about it even a week later. Though it's not horror, it's one of the darkest games I've ever played. It made me do things I've never done in a game before, things thatI played this game blind, without knowing any of the controversies or leaks, and without reading a single review beforehand. And what I got was an incredible experience that haunted me for days, and still has me thinking about it even a week later. Though it's not horror, it's one of the darkest games I've ever played. It made me do things I've never done in a game before, things that were extremely uncomfortable and heart-wrenching. If the goal of Part II was to elicit emotion from the player, then it's a resounding success.

    Having looked at some other reviews now, it seems that that emotional discomfort really bothered people. Whereas for me, I was in awe that a game could make me feel this way. Naughty Dog could have easily given fans exactly what they wanted, a play-it-safe sequel where nobody we care about dies, and everyone lives happily ever after. But that's not how life works, especially in this ultraviolent world they've created. Without spoiling anything, Naughty Dog took a big risk with Part II and I couldn't be happier about it. There's simply no other AAA game that has done before what they accomplished. The story is immense, complex, and daring.

    The Last of Us Part II is revolutionary. Not only in its multi-sided story-telling, but also in its mechanics and meticulous attention to detail. Every moment in this game is screenshot-worthy, and the combat is more immersive than ever with enemies calling each other by name. It's such a simple idea to think about and yet it adds so much to each combat scenario. Shoot someone in the head and their friend might yell "NO, SKYLER!" The violence & gore is also just plain disturbing at times. Not since the original Soldier of Fortune have I been this shocked to go up to a dead body and witness the aftermath of my chaos.

    It's clear that an ungodly amount of work and talent went into every facet of this game, and when I finished it I struggled to "review" it in my mind. It was just SO MUCH to process. It took me days to finally decide what number rating to give it, but when I managed to put all the pieces together and look at the game for what it was (not what I expected it to be) I realized that the game was a masterpiece.

    Don't listen to the negativity of others. Play the game yourself and come to your own conclusions. In my mind, Part II is a must play title, every bit worthy as a sequel to one of the best Playstation games ever made, and my personal game of the year thus far.    … Expand

It has some of the best visuals I have ever seen in a videogame. The environments, graphics, animations, effects all look amazing. I took so many screenshots with the games photo-mode, which has a lot of interesting things to play around with and you can easily spend hours of the game on it. With photo-mode you realise just how deep the detail in the game is. Also has amazing sound design and soundtrack. The zombies just look amazing like in the first, with some subtle redisgns and improvements from the first. Cutscenes look amazing, you can see the idividual features on peoples faces, scars, sweat, ect. Visuals in video games are as important as cinematography in films. People like to treat this as a side point, but video games are a visual medium. I could go on about how amazing the visuals are for a long time.
    I love stealth games and this one is very solid. Levels are large with several parts and approaches. Enemies behave like actual human beings, constantly looking around them, making them more challenging to avoid and encounter (very different from the usual robotic behaviour of enemies in stealth games). Stealth take-downs are brutal, with characters choking, slitting throat, ect. You have a lot of tools to play around with, you can plant mines, unleash the infected on your enemies, use explosive arrows. It certainly isn't the greatest stealth game ever made by any means, but it is miles above what I expected. It had so many tense situations, with creative mechanics like dogs sniffing your scent. The human and infected enemy types are greatly improved over the first and behave in more organic, life like ways.
    The combat is pretty tense, enemies go around, flank, ect. So many tense firefights in this one, like one time I was pinned by a sniper and prone on the ground and all the enemies stormed into the room at once and I had to shoot them while lying on my back, it was like a scene out of a film. I really enjoyed the game-play overall, interesting AI kept the stealth and combat situations interesting. The gameplay is similair to the first, but it's just so much better. I love the brutality of the visuals and the fighting, I was afraid that they might tone down on the violence but this one ramps it up. It certainly isn't the greatest stealth/shooter ever made, but it's very solid and several moments of the game that felt like they were scripted were completely organic. It feels like a film, similar to the first one. The visuals and game-play are top notch. The levels had tonnes of cool little details in them too, like how one area you go through is an abandoned library and has a kids section with tonnes of paintings on the wall.

    I loved the story in this one as well and the entire cast of characters were well written and voice acted. I love how a major theme in the first game is luck, Joel and Ellie survive primarily because of luck alone. As Joel says luck runs out, the first game foreshadowed an event like Joel running into Abby, he got unlucky and payed the price for his actions in the first game. I love his death scene, it's like he knew the day was coming, when his luck would run out and his past would catch up with him. Similair to the line in the first game 'no matter how hard you try, you can't escape your past' and 'your luck runs out', his death reflects both those major themes from the first game.
    I love that the story, like the first one, doesn't take sides. Joel is an anti-hero who killed a lot of people to save his 'daughter'. Although to Abby he was a villain, its a story thats open to interpretation, without the game ever pushing you one way or the other. It can be argued that Abby is the villain, she brutally murders Joel. However, Joel arguably destroys the chance of a cure to save his daughter, who he can't bare to lose a second time. The line where Ellie calls Joel an 'old fossil' is a nod to Sarah's birthday card to Joel and Joel taking her to a museum shows that she has become a surrogate daughter to him, who he adopted as a replacement for Sarah. Perhaps then Joel is selfish, he acts against Ellie's wishes and we clearly see that he uses her as a replacement daughter. I'm about to run the word count but I love the story cause it's morally complex and open to interpretation. Abby kills and tortures, so does Joel and Ellie, they do what they have to to survive. All three protagonists act in selfish ways, these are possibly the only good examples of well written anti-hero protagonists I can think of in videogames. You can interpret Abby/Joel/Ellie as a villain or as a hero and that's why I love it. Abby isn't a cartoon evil villain, you see she has compassion and care for other human beings, just like Joel and Ellie. To her Joel is an evil man who ruins her world. I empathise with her just as much as Joel and Ellie in the first. WORDCOUNT HIT :(    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us Part 2 is the best game of this generation for me.

    The graphics are amazing, the colors, the characters expressions and body acting was captured with perfection!
    The final confrontation between Abby and Ellie, the way they moved, their eyes, the expression in them was breath taking, heart breaking!!!!

    The jogability and usability of the controls and game, visual and sound options are truly amazing.

    The voice acting is absolute perfection.

    The story brakes my heart, but also brought me so much joy and the end, it leaves the door open for a Part 3, and I really hope ND does it too.

    It is a game with a dark story, an adult/mature one that will not endear itself to everyone.

    The basic idea of the story is simple: When Seeking Revenge, you should dig 2 graves and Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter Here (referring to the path of Revenge)

    It is a story of revenge, fury but also of hope, love, forgiveness and redemption.

    I loved that ND uses Abby's story to bring the Story of the Last of Us full cycle and to trace a parallel with Ellie's and Joel's. Joel's redemption and Ellie's fall from grace.

    As Joel found his redemption taking care and, after, caring for Ellie like a daughter, so does Abby with Lev and Yara, before both Joel and Abby were not the best of people, far from it but in caring for a kid made them slowly change and "start seeking the light again", to try and become a better person.

    In Joel's case that meant, sadly, having to kill the Fireflies in their main base in order to be able to save Ellie's life.

    In Abby's case that meant, sadly after she killed Joel, she had to be saved from the Scars by 2 kids in order to care for their well being, something that later, took her to do unimaginable things before to get the necessary medic kit so Yara could live.

    And what an amazing road she took...the Ground Zero chapter's infected she had to fight was one of the most amazing things in games I ever saw.

    Ellie's road on the other hand was so heartbreaking because we know her, we know her and Joel from the Last of Us, their rode, their pain, their bound with each other was our bond to them in the first game, we share her grief and hope to get back at Abby's group.

    But ND made us see and share on Abby's story too, and her friends, at the end we also see them for the flawed people they are, with good and bad, and feel sad that the path to revenge takes everything good from Ellie, we see the trauma she feels, the price she pays after killing everyone of them, Ellie's show when she discovered that she killed a pregnant woman, and the price she pays again after Tommy guilt trip her to go after Abby again, but at last, right at the last moment.

    I am glad that she could find a way to try, just maybe, one day, forgive Abby, and see that she is not so different from Joel at that moment, and as she said to Joel that she would like to try to forgive him for not letting the Fireflies sacrifice her life in search of a cure, that maybe someday she would like to try and forgive Abby to, if nothing else because Allie herself would not be able to live with herself after killing so many, and that killing Abby would not fix anything, just make everything more miserable.

    I cried so much during this game, and felt joy, and hope and got crushed.... at the epilogue, I really hope Ellie goes back to Jackson and live her life, maybe find the strength to let go of so much hate.

    I cried even more when Ellie tried to play the guitar....even that was taken from her...

    In the universe of The Last of Us, as with our own, we can only totally separate "bad guys" from "good guys" a handful of times like the Rattlers gang at the end, a group of evil people that decided to enslave others for personal gain and survival instead of trying to create a community like Jackson (for example) or even the WLF and "Scars", both terribly flawed (and even evil sometimes) groups but not without their good side.

    Overall, an awesome game. I love it to bits and will play it again on NG+    … Expand

    I would say that the game fully continues the ideas of the first part, some turns of the game are really unpredictable, especially in the end of the Prologue ;)
    The game play is extremely involving.
    Finally, for sure, no other game didn't make such a big impact on me after finishing. At the same time, I understand why people put 0 - this game isn't something they were waiting for.

    Pay no attention to the haters. This game ended up beimg far superior to the much-loved LoU1. Cinematic quality has taken a major step-up and the gameplay is mostly unchanged yet much more fluid.

    It takes LoU1's best qualities and ramps them up 10-fold. The emotional impact is heavier and the message from a complete playthrough is one the world desperately needs to hear right now.

    Amazing and most beautiful level design .. that I have seen in a while! Story is very brutal at times but great all in all. Gameplay is unique and refreshing ... since it is not about killing enemies all the time. There are moments when you do puzzles and some of them with unique mechanics. Overall one of the best games ever!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't understand why those who claim they've played the game say they hate it.
    Sorry Joel died. I loved him too, but he is literally the reason that there is no cure for the world.
    Playing as Abby was such a breath of fresh air.
    Ellie is a rampaging lunatic, even though I understand and agree with her motivations.
    The whole point of this game was to show how violence is cyclical, and thankfully, Ellie and Abby are able to break that cycle.
    If you didn't like the game, then you clearly weren't able to get over yourself and see what Naughty Dog was truly trying to show you.    … Expand

    One of the best games I've played in a while, and definitely my favorite narrative-driven game. Kept thinking about the characters for days after finishing it.

    The Last of Us is a milestone in the gaming industry. Its importance bothers many people. The unfair repercussion on the current title, Part II, proves it.

    The game's aspects are some of the best seen in games so far, especially the graphics. The ambience, the scenarios and, mainly, the lighting of the game create an immersion that few games can provide.

    The addition of large scenarios as Uncharted, fitted very well for TLOU. The Naughty Dog evolves its quality each game released. And it's easy to know that Uncharted 4 and TLOU2 are your best games. But the evolution is not only in the technical aspects.

    Gameplay is another very positive point. The dodge was the best possible addition, allowing for variations in the huge battles. The stealth and enemies AI remain at the highest level.

    Now, let's talk about the controversial plot, without spoilers.

    It seems very childish to me so much hate over the plot. Naughty Dog was extremely brave and ambitious in the story. TLOU has always been a series of games that deal with reality in the most hostile way possible. It always brought great reflexive stories. The consequences of the actions of the characters were also always present in the game. It is not something new. Now, if that doesn't please you, that's not what makes the story bad.

    The entire game plot is masterfully constructed. The 3 arcs, the plot twists and turns and the way the storyline makes us love characters we hated and hate characters we loved was rarely seen in games - that's what worked best on it, in my opinion. The ending is poetic, brutal, reflective and daring. As it had to be.

    The series must go on in part 3. If one day it ever exists, I have no doubt that it will maintain the high quality of the 2 games released.

    There is no doubt: even for the discomfort that the game causes in so many people, it is one of the best and greatest games of all time. GOTY so far. Masterpiece.

    In Brazilian Portuguse:

    The Last of Us é um marco na industria dos games. Sua importância incomoda muita gente. A repercussão injusta sobre o atual título, a Parte II, prova isso.

    Os aspectos técnicos do jogo são alguns dos melhores já vistos nos games até o momento, especialmente na parte gráfica. A ambientação, os cenários e, principalmente, a iluminação do jogo criam uma imersão que poucos jogos podem proporcionar.

    A adição de cenários bem mais amplos, seguindo o exemplo de Uncharted, fez muito bem para TLOU. A Naughty Dog evolui sua qualidade a cada jogo. E é bem fácil saber que Uncharted 4 e TLOU2 são seus melhores jogos. Mas a evolução não é somente nos aspectos técnicos.

    A jogabilidade é outro ponto muito positivo. A esquiva foi a melhor adição possível, permitindo variações nos combates enormes. A parte stealth e a inteligência dos inimigos continuam no mais alto nível.

    Agora, vamos falar sobre o polêmico enredo, sem dar spoilers.

    Me parece bem infantil tanto hate em cima do enredo. A Naughty Dog foi extremamente corajosa e ambiciosa na história. TLOU sempre foi uma série de jogos que lidam com a realidade de forma mais hostil possível. Sempre trouxe grandes histórias para reflexão. A consequência das ações das personagens também sempre estiveram presente no jogo. Não é uma novidade. Agora, se isso não te agrada, não é isso que torna a história ruim.

    Todo o plot do jogo é construído com maestria. Os 3 arcos, as reviravoltas e a forma como o enredo nos faz amar personagens que odiávamos e odiar personagem que amávamos foi poucas vezes vista em jogos - é o que melhor trabalhou isso, na minha opinião. O final é poético, brutal, reflexivo e ousado. Como tinha que ser.

    Ainda há espaço para a série continuar em uma parte 3. Se ela existir um dia, não tenho dúvidas de que manterá a alta qualidade dos 2 jogos lançados até aqui.

    Não resta dúvida: até pelo incômodo que o jogo provoca em tantas pessoas, é um jogos melhores e maiores jogos de todos os tempos. Jogo do ano até o momento. Obra-prima.    … 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]
