    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Terrible writing. This is the most unsatisfying game that I have ever played. We don’t even get our revenge, no instead we forgive the person that killed our father figure. What they advertised is not what we got. The gameplay and visuals are amazing but the story and characters are garbage. Unbelievable, I can not believe that we waited 7 YEARS for this disappointment of “entertainment”. If this game gets GoTY then I am finished with games, because I don’t want this garbage to be the future of gaming. I play games to be entertained and not to be lectured.… Expand

    Naughty Dog was famous for one thing and one thing only. Their stories. With this game, they have lost that claim to fame.

    Without going into spoilers, the entire set of main characters comes off as unlikable, the plot that drives their actions forward is so simplistic a highschooler could have written it, and the dialogue is just... bad. There's simply nothing left to feel attached to after the first couple of hours, when you realise the characters you came to love in the previous game are either not the same anymore, or not there at all.
    So, once you take the narrative elements out of the equation, what's left?
    Predictably, not much. The gameplay is the same affair we've been seeing delivered by Naughty Dog since the first Uncharted, i.e. mediocre AI taking pot-shots at you from behind chest high walls, while you try to do the same to them. The "stealth" is equally unimpressive.
    Motion capture also felt off at places, which is actually weird given the budget and development time this game was afforded. You'd think for a flagship franchise like this, they'd have taken more care to avoid entering the uncanny valley every time a character opened their mouth.
    And to finally say something positive, and justify those 2/10 points I gave it, the graphics are pretty damn good. If you want to take a glimpse at what the next gen games are going to look like, you should take a look at this game. It really does look amazing.

    So in conclusion, I can only recommend this game if you fetish is staring at stellar quality graphics. If your priorities lie anywhere else, you'll only be dissapointed.    … Expand

    I never knew how hard it would be to convince myself to continue playing a video game. I look to video games for fun and enjoyment. This game was a major letdown and had me angry so many times.

    They’ve somehow managed to **** up the sequel to one of the most critically acclaimed games of all time in a spectacular way.

The writing in this game is some of the worst I’ve ever seen. It’s Star Wars: Last Jedi bad. It’s GoT Season 8 bad.

    - A lot of events happen by coincidence and guesswork.
    - The old cast and factions have essentially been thrown out the window for new characters and factions.
    - The message of the game is shallow and hypocritical.
    - The game is morally skewered towards one out of two narratively leading sides of the story.
    - The story is a scrambled mess, littered with multiple flashbacks which has less emotional effect on the player because of how the story has been structured.
    - There’s next to no levity in the game, which can be extremely draining on both the player and on the storytelling, since the events in the game losses it’s emotional impact and becomes more predictable.
    - Some character choices are absolutely none-sensical and comes out of the blue.
    - The game either assumes that the player can correctly assume the correct character development during narrative gaps taking place before and during the game OR a lot of character development was extremely overlooked for the sake of plot twists.

    I’m sick and tired of big IPs getting away with this trash level of writing while racking in billions of dollars in profits. This needs to stop or else entire industries will devolve into a cesspool of badly written media and litterateur. STOP, JUST PLEASE STOP.    … Expand

    The game is great. Firstly, you have to go through the game at the max. level of difficulty, then you will feel the AI ​​of the enemies, the danger and atmosphere of this game. Secondly, there are some plot points that have led me into perplexity or even angered me. But if you complete the game with the creator to the end, then you will understand that everything was not in vain.

    The game is spectacular in its mechanics and in the narration of the story, but it is unnecessary to include political issues such as the LGBT community in a game. Without them, the game would be top notch. Just look at the example of The Witcher, Mario Odissey, Zelda, Uncharted, and several more. Hopefully Naughty Dog reconsiders.

I'm literally only going on because I just want to see Ellie beat the antagonist to death... I did not read any of the spoilers going into it, I didn't even know it was being review bombed until I pulled up metacritic to leave a review... The dialogue is trash, the plot and decision making is trash. As a result I just can't believe any of these characters actions, was this even written by the same people? How did we go from some of the most believable characters EVER written in TLOU1 to this?! While I'm sure there are some homophobic pieces of trash that hate this game because of lesbians, for me you could replace Dina with a guy and the dialogue would still make me cringe and want to turn the console off. My day has been ruined and my disappointment is immeasurable at the waste of potential. Maybe this is my fault for hyping myself up and playing TLOU1 the other day to get amped up for TLOU2 and my expectations were set so very high, however the difference in writing quality is startling. Basically the only thing this game has going for it is pretty scenery and a good soundtrack which is why I give it a 2 out of 10.… Expand

That's what's p***ing me off the most about this game, the fact that a horrible, abusive practice went into making it and game journos are letting the man responsible get away with it with no consequences because he's hiding behind progressivism and using it as a defense for his actions.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sweet Jesus, Neil Druckmann, what did you just do? This was my first thought after ending the game. I really don't know what to say, it is a masterpiece or some gruesome, depressing movie that spits in your **** face al the way. First of all, I want to talk about everything except the story. The graphics are amazing. My 6 years old poor Ps4 can show something incredible, I could not believe in it. But it has minor issues such as popping details and textures in front of you. The gameplay almost the same, however, it is really upgraded with motion matching technology and you can see love and care of devs in every NPC, zombie, they are looking amazing. Some of the people say: "This is boring, throw bottle there, kill him, shoot there, go find supplies blah blah blah", do not listen to them, it is a pure lie, the gameplay is actually fascinating, especially on higher difficulty. While playing The last of us part 2, I saw so many ridiculous features and details I could not believe my eyes, but when you want to destroy a bottle ( not a throwable), lamp, burn a car, burn a tent, blow up a piece of furniture, shoot off a gun or walk on corpses, you cannot do this and it's really **** upsetting. All those crunches and years for what? For **** carpet, if you barely walk by, it will be lifted by air(first zombie encounter in Jackson(Ellie)), the blood and gore sure look dope. Music is a masterpiece( at least it was not ruined). They decided to change Gustavo Santaolalla to Mac Qualey for more intense moments such as hordes, car chase, horse chase and so on. Now the story. Two hours seems peaceful( not Abby's sequence) until Joel's horrible death. Okay, I get it, **** revenge at all cost. The first part of the game we play as our beautiful Ellie then after Jesse's death we play as **** fridge till the end to know her backstory and her not related to the story path. Okay, I will swallow it too. IT WAS SO **** LONG AND UNINERESTING SEQUENCE I wanted to speedrun it. When I understood that I will have to beat the crap out of Ellie, GODDAMN ELIEE by the **** muscle fridge, I wanted to delete this game. I wanted revenge so much. After a while, I met Abby, started fighting with her. She would have almost drowned but Ellie decided not to kill her. REALLY? Well, I can understand why she chose not to kill her, to break a cycle of violence but it was so poorly written, shown that I cannot help but thinking about the mess Neil made of the story. He should have given us a choice to kill or not to kill the fridge or just kill her to show how revenge is bad and devastating. He should have forgotten that stupid idea of the CycLE of VIoLEnCe because we are killing too many people just not to kill the main target. I could not give it a 0 or 1, or 2, or freaking 3 but solid 8 or 7 'cause this is a masterpiece of everything except some parts of the story. Every developer devoted their heart to make this game and I just can't give it a lower point. **** Neil, it will be a lesson for him. "Vengeance is an idiot's game” - Arthur Morgan 1899.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I preordered the game, but due to the major spoiler I had and the whirl of controversies after the game’s release, I decided to postpone my first playthrough. Here, after a year of calming down the heat, I believe I can play the game with unbiased opinions. First, the graphics is probably one of the best if not the best of the last gen console. It’s really impressive what the programmers at the Naughty Dog did to make all that happen. Second, the gameplay has major upgrades compared with TLOU1. Considering the TLOU series is heavily story-oriented, it’s impressive that so much upgrades can happen from TLOU1 to TLOU2. Last but not least, the story. As I said, both the two games are heavily story-oriented, but what makes TLOU1 unique is not its story but the way the story is told. It’s the details accumulated during Joel and Ellie’s journey that makes the final decision of Joel’s astonishing but reasonable. While in the sequel, innovations are made in terms of the storytelling, but the story itself has big loopholes, which makes the game less enjoyable. I guess the main theme the game wants to convey is the meaninglessness of revenge, but even with the innovative ways of telling the story, the game fails to do so. Instead of filling the players with the void of revenge, the strong emotion of revenge is carried on even more so towards the end of the game. A good comparison I make is with Metal Gear Solid V. MGSV is also about revenge, but the hatred towards the Skull Face and the desire to revenge abates towards the end, with the reasonable storytelling. In conclusion, TLOU2 deserves praise for its beautiful graphics, surprisingly good gameplay, even innovative narrative style, but it fails to convey its core idea because of its poor screenwriting. It would be at least a 7/10 if it’s not a story-oriented game. It’s really a pity.… Expand

    The gameplay is a small improvement over the past. The story, with some real inconsistent pacing, is still bold, risky and intense.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The inclusiveness of this game is the least of its problems. I did not care Ellie was a lesbian in the first game and it didn't bother that Abby is transgender, even though it feels a bit forced. My problem is that everything that had a meaning in the first game, doesn't have one anymore in this one. I feel like Neil just gave us a huge slap in the face with Joel's unnecessary death and how pointless it was. This game made want to quit when we were forced to play as Abby right after killing Joel and the having to fight Ellie. The ending was the worst I've ever experienced and made me feel like Ellie's entire journey had no meaning after forgiving Abby for literally killing everything she loved and letting her go. I'm tremendously disappointed and heartbroken. The jump button was basically useless and the visuals were fantastic, which saddly is the only good thing about this game.

    The last of us should never have had a sequel, not like this.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all, my critic isn't in ANY WAY directed to any aspect of gender as said so by many people who enjoyed the game. First of all, adressing the story problems of "retconning", wich is directly affected by the character of Joel, that dies very early in the game (problematic in this sense and also on the fact that Naughty Dog has put scenes with him in the trailer, but in the final product is another character), making the way for the entire plot of Ellie's revenge. The story by itself is pretty weak and cliché, but could at least had some more convincing end. For example a very simple way of fixing the end: Both Abby and Ellie getting captured and they are forced to work with each other to escape the enemies, and then later, have the very same ending. Why? Because this would at least make more sense for Ellie's internal emotional conflict. Gameplay-wise it's kinda ok, nothing changed that much from the first one but at least I could see some improvements on the AI and map exploring (it's a little bit bigger if compared), but again, nothing really changed. I expected more from Naughty Dog, this is the first time that they are doing something more 'risky', but at least I waiting for something more convincing. Huge congratulations for the team that worked on the engine, as well the animations, sound design, voice and acting. Sadly I can't say the same for the writing. 4/10.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My honest review of TLOU2

    Will contain some spoilers.

    The Last of Us 2 is a story-driven game with elements of stealth, action and survival in a post-apocalyptic world. The current state of the world is filled with a fungus that takes over humans and transforms them into zombie-like creatures. The greenery in the game is lush and all over like it's taking back over the earth. It looks beautiful on the PS4 Pro.

    Gameplay
    The Last of Us 2's gameplay is how you'd expect it to be but refined a little from the first game. Easy to control the character movements and trek around the different sceneries and areas within the game. I don't really know what else to say on this because it's basic stuff. I feel the scenery is well designed so it kinda hints on where to go next to progress the story.

    Graphics
    The graphics in this game are beautiful especially when seeing the greenery and trekking through forest areas. Everything looks better designed compared to the first instalment. It is definitely one of the nicest-looking games this generation.

    Animations
    When it comes to animations this game does them well. Everything is fluid when picking up resources, ammo, sneaking and all the other movements the characters make. I think motion capture has something to do with this also. Well done in the animations department.

    Now onto the negatives because these are my biggest reasons I didn't like this game much.

    Story direction
    I feel when it comes to the story the game combusts and dies. The story is a simple revenge plot due to Joel killing a random NPC close to the end of the first game which happens to be Abby's father. She simply then gets lucky in finding him after some trouble with infected and then deals with him in such an awful manner. Simply shoots one of his legs off then uses a golf club to beat the living hell out of him. I feel Joel isn't the proper Joel from the first game because why would he reveal his real name to people when he knows personally people would be after him. I feel they made Joel some dumbass person to automatically trust some random strangers and give them his real name. Back to the previous point though. Ellie walks in sees Joel all mangled up and sees him die. I know for a fact the majority of fans are disgruntled with the way he was killed. I feel and many others feel they spat on the character and made him out to be a supervillain or something. What annoys people more is you play as this character quite a bit throughout the game. Only to end up in the end not killing Abby (when playing as Ellie) and just walking away. The whole journey of the first game of building up the characters relationship is pointless because of the events of the second game. All to send this message that “humans are all trash”. Naughty Dog has betrayed the diehard fans and spat on Joel's character.

    To wrap this up I feel this sequel isn't as good as the first. I feel they just pandered to a select few groups of people and have suffered for it. The user reviews show people's opinions. It isn't being massively review bombed as the gaming journalists are putting it. It's from real people with real opinions. Not everyone agrees or has the same opinions on everything.

    For this, I score The Last of Us Part II a 6/10. The 6 marks going to the positives I gave at the start of my review. Neil Druckmann you needed to do better.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Antes de empezar, he jugado al juego entero, y esta critica es para intentar ayudar a esas personas que todavía no saben si comprarlo o no, así que seré breve:

    Puntos positivos:

    Gráficos: es de lo mejor que he visto hasta la fecha, en algunos planos y escenas directamente parece que sea de verdad, como en una película.

    Doblaje sublime, de lo mejor que hay ahora mismo en videojuegos.

    Narrativa / historia / guión: Pese a que tiene cosas realmente malas y deficientes, también tiene otras partes que son muy buenas, mejores que el de cualquier otro videojuego "normal".

    Puntos Negativos:

    Gameplay repetitivo y algo aburrido. No es como si innovasen mucho con el primer juego, y sinceramente algunas veces se vuelve muy repetitivo y fácil. Eso le resta muchos puntos a mi parecer, porque no se lo han currado al nivel de lo demás.

    Agenda política y giliprogresismo: Lo de siempre, incluir con calzador temas que no casan con esta saga. Puedo entender (y disfrutar) que Elly sea lesbiana y haya una relación homosexual. De hecho es una de las cosas que mas he disfrutado de la trama, pero mas allá de eso el resto de tonterías sobran. No es necesario intentar hacer que el hombre blanco sea el malo siempre, y la gente homosexual las victimas. ESTO EN LA VIDA REAL y en el 2020 NO ES ASÍ y ya va siendo hora de dejar el lavado de cerebro. Y lo digo YO, que soy bisexual. Creo que no casa incluir tantos personajes homosexuales, transexuales y demás... no por nada, sino porque queda muy forzado y destroza la trama.

    Guión lamentable en algunos puntos de la historia, encontrando a ciertos personajes con otros de forma "casual" a conveniencia de la trama. Me esperaba un guión de un nivel muy superior al mostrado, me esperaba una historia mejor elaborada, mejor pensada, que los personajes sean capaces de solucionar los problemas de forma inteligente, y no con deus ex machinas constantes y casualidades estúpidas.

    PRENSA: Estáis escondiendo la existencia de ciertos personajes a propósito, y eso no está bien. Y Lo peor de todo es que Abby no es un mal personaje, pero toda la gente lo va a odiar por vuestra culpa.

    Lo dicho, le pongo un 7 por los increíbles gráficos que tiene, pero si por lo demás fuera, no pasaría del 6. Me cabrea que hagan las cosas mal, cosas que antes las hacían mucho mejor, y todo por seguir la corriente de la agenda política de turno.    … Expand

    The Last of Us Part II could be a pretty good game, but Naughty Dog didn’t give a damn and trample what the players in the first part loved (you lived and empathized with the main characters), and now you don’t understand why this is happening on the screen. Disappointment, resentment, anger - this is what this game will give you.

    This is still the gold standard of triple A games in terms of gameplay. It took the simple game mechanics of the first and improved on them immeasurably, utilising them in an infinitely more dynamic world with satisfying and gorgeous level/encounter design.

It took the simple game mechanics of the first and improved on them immeasurably, utilising them in an infinitely more dynamic world with satisfying and gorgeous level/encounter design.

    [MINOR SPOILERS FROM HERE] However, since The Last of Us, there have been a lot of releases that have been superlative storytellers. From Red Dead Redemption 2 to Outer wilds to even something as expansive as The Witcher 3 to gorge yourself on. Part 2 never reaches the heights of the first game and is subordinate to even more comparable releases in this regard. The "if you're out for revenge, prepare two coffins: one for your quarry, and the other for yourself" storyline is done to death in infinitely better westerns than TLOU2 and it mostly feels like Naughty Dog has a load of emotional check boxes it wants to fill, giving the story a less organic feel.

    I don't understand this recent, I think, desire that writers often have to show the humanity in all of the monsters that they create. The sequences with Abby are arduous for this reason. I simply don't care about the connection that her and her group had with the dog that I killed earlier on in the game, which they realistically brought out with them to either a) die b) maul Ellie's face off. It's so lazy. Yes, Abby’s a person trying to survive in a world only slightly more hostile than our own, but anybody can appear sympathetic, you don't need to debase and derail the momentum of a narrative and take me on a massive gameplay diversion (10+ hours easily) just to tell me that.

    [MAJOR SPOILERS FROM HERE] The final act synthesises one of the worst and most egregious ludo-narrative dissonances between authorial intent, what the game is actually asking you to do at any given moment and how it’ll make you feel that I've ever seen in a video game. For e.g. a fail-state existing in the final desperate confrontation between Abby and Ellie, so that if you mess up in dodging a strike or two, you die and have to beat Abby over and over again until you get it right, is just torture porn. Nothing more. Particularly after it’s actually Ellie that forces the fight from Abby, who is to too weak and tired to care anymore, no doubt written this way in acknowledgement that there were still going to be some players who wanted their shot at harming Abby for what she did to Joel. Developers/coders probably missed birthdays and stuff under crunch for this kind of **** and that’s embarrassing. It tries so forcefully to emphasise a liberal idea of shared humanity during some of the most monstrous moments that it actually comes across as not caring about the fate, wellbeing or audience goodwill for *any* of the characters (aside from Joel but he has long-since passed). They’re simply empty vessels for a consistently manipulative game, to the point where it relies heavily on flashbacks to hold any true emotional weight, reminiscing on a time when Naughty Dog had loftier goals than this tripe.

    Having said all of that, the very, very final few tender moments–the game drags and has about 10 presumed endings like Return of the King– I could see working and hitting the right note if the 20 hours (of a 30 hour game) that preceded it was better-written. Also, Ellie and Dina are mostly great and the banter that they share together outside of the cutscenes is sweet. That's it. Those are the only redeeming qualities for the majority of Part 2.

    I basically never agree with review-bombs like this in user scores. They're almost always infantile and reactionary. However, in this instance, I'm inclined to agree. Though there certainly is a lot of "this is SJW fanfare", I think they're incoherently touching on the sense that TLOU2 is awfully ham-fisted and moralising in a tacky way. And they're right. Every games journalist who has touted this as a masterpiece for the pleasure of £60 a pop is a bare-faced liar because make no mistake, if you cared about Ellie and her essential goodness: Naughty Dog is taking you for a fool. If you like dogs: they are laughing at you as they p*ss in your eyes. If you wanted a sequel that was greater than the sum of its parts and had something actually meaningful to say: Naughty Dog wants you dead.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I find it hilarious that people who complain about alleged "Reviews bombing" post reviews here that say nothing about the quality of the game and even admit that they only rate it to go against others and to manipulate the score, but whatever...

    Tlou2 hast good graphics and gameplay like its predecessor, its sound Design ist formidable, like its predecessor, and its really good at creating tension, like its predecessor. And here begin the problems, even for the stuff that's good there just isnt an awful lot of improvement compared to the original.

    Tension ist good, but where the first game switched between light and dark moments, adding contrast and therefore amplifying the emotional effects, Tlou2 for good parts, especially towards the end, is just all dark and the missing contrast makes you go numb rather than keeping you on the edge..

    However it is the story where things just fall apart, ND tries to convey the message that "vengeance is bad", which is cliche af and everyone already knew, but hey. They try to drive this home by splitting the game into a part where you play as Ellie from the first game and a part where you play as Abby, a new charakter who is introduced to us by means of her smashing Joels head in. And then they try to make you feel sympathy towards her... Yea, it just doesnt work.
    See, questioning the purpose of the fight and the status of the "villain" by making you play as him worked in Assassin's Creed 3 because you played as Kenway BEFORE being told that he was a templar. It made you question the evilness of the Templars by showing you that they believed themselves to be doing the right thing, because you believed yourself to be in the right while playing as him.
    Tlou2 introduced Abby by having her kidnap, torture and kill a fan favourite character from the first game and then makes you play as her going all "yea she has reasons and you should like her", well guess what it doesnt work. Matters arent helped by her being an unlikable ****
    It could have worked if they had put her part in the beginning of the game, having you hunt down her fathers killer without knowing who that is, and then after revealing it switching to Ellie, but the way it is it completely fails at what it sets out to do and the Abby Part is just dreadful to go thru as you have to play a charakter you despise.

    So the Story begins rather well, then turns to trash then gets somewhat better again and then culminates in an extremely unsatisfying ending. Glorious. And I paid money for that.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Voy a ir al grano:

    Gráficos: Supongo que acá nadie me va a poder discutir, gráficamente el juego es increíble, se nota una atención al detalle tanto en personajes como en escenarios que ningún otro juego me ha hecho experimentar. Aunque supongo que en parte esto no sorprende, ya que Naughty Dog siempre se ha caracterizado por hacer juegos con gráficos adelantados a su tiempo desde 1996. Si esto es lo que ND puede hacer de máximo en una PS4, no quiero ni imaginarme en la siguiente generación de consolas. Este es de lejos posiblemente el unico juego con gráficos fotorrealistas (o lo mas cercano al fotorrealismo). Si es verdad que el juego va a 30 FPS, pero con unos pocos minutos de gameplay uno se acostumbra.
    Jugabilidad: La jugabilidad del primer TLOU era bastante simple pero algo competente, siendo un juego de sigilo/accion que honestamente, le faltaba pulirse, y la IA y la falta de explotacion de la misma jugabilidad era algo que hacia que el primer juego no me llamara tanto la atencion como a otros si. Sin embargo, TLOU2 mejora enormemente la jugabilidad al punto de que incluso es uno de mis juegos de sigilo favoritos. Aunque mucho es calcado del primer juego (de hecho, las armas son prácticamente las mismas), tenemos muchísimas mas mejoras para nuestras habilidades que ahora si hacen la diferencia (no como en TLOU1), la IA mejoro enormemente, constantemente comentando cosas dependiendo de lo que el jugador haga y también tenemos muchas mas opciones para el sigilo. Ademas de tener muchas opciones de accesibilidad que siempre son muy bien recibidas en cualquier videojuego. Si es verdad que se podria aprovechar todavia mas, como por ejemplo el sistema de mejoras, pero definitivamente es mejor que la del primer juego.
    Historia: Voy a ser totalmente honesto, la historia del primer TLOU si bien me pareció bastante buena, no era una de mis favoritas, de hecho, yo nunca conecte con Joel en el primer juego. Y debido a que la historia del segundo da un cambio bastante brusco (aunque ND siempre suele dar cambios bruscos en sus segundas partes por lo que no me sorprende) realmente la he disfrutado mas. El juego esta dividido en 2 partes, la historia con Ellie y la historia de Abby. Obviamente no contare todo ya que es demasiado largo, sin embargo, creo que ambas historias en general están bastante bien, he llegado a conectar con Abby de forma exitosa (cosa que como ya dije con Joel en el primero no). Se nota claramente que el juego quiere contar una historia de venganza en el que tengamos pena por ambos personajes, y el punto de Abby se cuenta perfectamente, o casi. Yo creo que el problema de la historia no es Abby como muchos dicen, sino Ellie, ya que ella claramente esta mucho mas cegada por la venganza que Abby, matando a muchos mas miembros del otro grupo y cuando Abby la perdona por segunda vez al final, Ellie sigue queriendo llevar su venganza a cabo, cosa que esto no me cuadro del todo (junto con el final) y tampoco me gustaron ciertas escenas flashback que se hacen algo pesadas y aburridas (aunque algunas si están bastante buenas). No culpare al que diga que este juego parece una telenovela. Sin embargo, creo que la historia de Abby junto con la relación que lleva entre Mel, Lev y Yara principalmente fue la mejor parte.
    Lo que si también note de la historia es que se siente forzada, sin embargo no es algo que tomare en cuenta puesto que si bien esta forzada en muchas partes lo cierto es que luego lo que te cuentan se puede hacer interesante así que se lo perdono (salvo el final como ya dije).
    En general, la historia de TLOU2 no es perfecta ni mucho menos, y de hecho hubiera falta extender un poco mas el final que se siente incompleto, así como contar un poco mas sobre las luciérnagas, la cura, u otros temas que quedaron vacíos en el primer juego y que el segundo no quiere explicarlo por abarcar la venganza como tema principal de la historia. Sin embargo, eso no quiere decir que no la haya disfrutado, de hecho, la disfrute mucho mas que la primera entrega.
    Conclusión: Debo ser sincero de nuevo, yo soy de los que piensan que el primer juego esta algo sobrevalorado, y es por eso que esta segunda entrega se infravaloro bastante, simplemente por que elimina la simplicidad de la que bebía la primera entrega y la hace un poco mas compleja ademas de cambiar muchas cosas que puedo entender que a la gente no le haya gustado esos cambios, sin embargo, el juego objetivamente no es malo, de hecho, aun si la historia fuese legítimamente mala, el juego lo seguiría considerando bueno, con una jugabilidad bastante competente en su genero (aunque muy mejorable) y gráficos que me atrevería a decir que hasta ahora son los mejores que he visto a nivel técnico y eso que hablamos de una consola no tan potente lanzada en 2013. TLOU2 en mi opinión personal supera en todos los apartados al primer juego.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game disgusts me. Why I'm forced to play as Abby for such long time (10 hours) who literally tortured Joel to death just after Joel saved her. The game wants to tell the justification of her revenge, but who cares?! And in the end, she just walked away ??

    "THE LAST OF US PART II" is one of the games I am looking forward to most in this year. Today, I fully experience and pass the game with the difficulty of survivors. The following is the detailed.

This is the largest and most ambitious work developed    "THE LAST OF US PART II" is one of the games I am looking forward to most in this year. Today, I fully experience and pass the game with the difficulty of survivors. The following is the detailed.

    Naughty dog once again shows us the best audio-visual experience of PS4 in this generation with the top production level in the industry. This is the largest and most ambitious work developed by the production team so far. The excellent art in the game greatly masks the shortcomings of PS4 in terms of PS4's capabilities. In the aspect of combat experience, the move of dodging and crawling is added in this work, which greatly improves the game experience in the process of fighting and stealth. The more intelligent AI makes the enemy very difficult to deal with. The enemy will carry out a careful search according to the player's position. The team with clear division of labor will be responsible for command and encirclement. When the enemy is facing death, there will be crying or even begging for mercy , and your enemies will be disgusted with you. Such a rich detailed description is exactly what the production team wants to bring more real performance to the players. In the aspect of level design, the game surpasses the previous generation and reaches a new level. Players need to use environmental resources reasonably and judge the venue correctly, which is more prominent especially under high difficulty.the excellent audio-visual experience and excellent performance make the whole level battle full of thrill and excitement. This work also has excellent performance in auxiliary function, which is especially reflected in the design of barrier free function. Perfect barrier free design can enable the disabled to participate in the experience game.

    About characters and narratives:

    The whole game is divided into three parts. After the prologue, there will be Allie, Abby and the last chapter. In the characterization, the roles of Allie are not as profound as those of Abby. For example, Jesse and Allie lack more meaningful dialogues, and Jesse is more like a forced patchwork of existence, which is more obvious after I finished the part of Abby. In the game experience, we can also clearly find that the Abby is more important than Ellie.it is not difficult to find out that the center of the game is Abby not Ellie. The description of Abby has not reached a better level, and she is also the most important character in the whole game. At the end of the game, Naughty dog tries to telling us what is the vortex of hatred and the redemption of life, but it creates a slightly regretful performance directly, so the characterization of Ellie is greatly reduced. The writing direction of this script is quite different from our expectation, but please don't forget that it still has many outstanding points.

    That is the all comments on "THE LAST OF US PART II". The script can't satisfy everyone, and the experience of the game varies from person to person. I have made a relatively objective review on this as far as possible. Of course, this only represents my personal opinion. If there are different opinions, please keep them and understand it.    … Expand

    The crafting and weapon upgrades have also been massively improved, offering a wider selection of skills and abilities so you can really mix up the gameplay, it's incapable of becoming stale.

    Level design Is second to none here, players are heavily rewarded for their exploration and the areas are so big it is one step away from being a true open world. I've lost count of the amount of times i've finished a fight and then saw another piece of terrain I could have used and wanted to re-do the fight again.

    The story is absolutely fantastic, we can truly see the motivations of each side of the argument and are reminded that there is no such thing as good and bad in this world. Abbys plight is as important as Ellie's but there is also things to be learnt on both sides. Abby is a fantastic character with much the same motivations as Ellie and it's really interesting to see the story play out from both sides.

    I honestly couldn't recommend this game enough. Fans of the original will find all the same mini interactions and attention to detail that they loved in the first game, mixed in with a satisfying update to the combat and a thrilling story that will leave you bloodthirsty.

Just got past the golf mission, if you played the game or saw the spoilers you know exactly what am talking about, it felt sooo cheap the way that that sh*t happened, it's like they wanted to get rid of Joel! 7 years in the making and that what the writers came up with? Very embarrassing and disappointing! not like that you kill a very dear character to your fans' hearts just so the story continues and Ellie goes on a revenge mission.
    Bottom line the story (so far) feels cheap and just simply bad.

    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...
