    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. TL:DR - Neil Druckmann wrote this for himself and not the fans and prioritized inclusiveness over story.

    I'd like to start this review by saying that I was well aware of all the leaks prior to the release of this game. I, like a lot of fans, was pretty furious at the whole situation but decided I'd bite the bullet and buy the game anyway - after all experiencing a game for yourself is an entirely different experience to watching a playthrough.

    Gameplay-wise this game is a slight rehash of the previous installment - with a few creature comforts such as the dodge button (which on normal difficulty doesn't have much of an impact but on higher difficulties is essential). I enjoyed the added feature of dogs, which made the combat encounters feel slightly less repetitive and the new weapons were also a cool addition. For a "zombie type game" I felt there was definitely a bigger focus on the human enemies (which I don't have a problem with however I feel the infected should have had a larger presence in the game).

    Puzzles within the game were pretty similar to the first - with the added rope mechanic to change things up as well as the safe combinations. I felt there was way more that could've been done to actually push the player into thinking a bit more, as these puzzles felt way too easy.

    The game does a beautiful job in creating an environment that will always lead you in the right direction. This is hard to explain without experiencing for yourself, but I'll try my best. The game will lead you towards a locked door for example, forcing you to turn around after finding out it's locked. When you turn around, you'll realize you've walked past a vent which you can climb into thus leading you back on track. The level designers are amazing at their job and should be praised for this. In addition to this, although this game is very much linear, it does an amazing job at tricking you into thinking otherwise. The levels are much larger allowing for a lot more exploration than in the first game which helped keep things from getting boring. In terms of graphics, this game is absolutely beautiful, however this is expected from a triple A studio such as Naughty Dog. Nonetheless credit where credit is due.

    Now the story - I have very mixed opinions. From the start of this game, it is clear there is a political agenda. There is an extremely large focus on inclusiveness for a large amounts of ethnic and sexual orientations which is great - these groups deserve recognition in video games. My problem with this is when it has no benefit for the game other than to meet a checklist for inclusiveness (which is definitely what this feels like). For example, early within the game there is a scene where Ellie and Dina find themselves within a synagogue. This level seemed like a lesson on Jewish beliefs rather than serving purpose to the story. Yes Dina is Jewish - but why do we need to know this when it literally has no purpose other than in this scene in the entirety of the game after this. After playing this game for yourself - you'll understand where I'm coming from - this happens a number of times.

    Joel is killed off early in the game by Abby (the daughter of a doctor Joel killed in the first game). I am fine with this decision - in fact I expected it before the leaks happened. My problem with this is that there wasn't enough interaction between Ellie and Joel before this happened. It would've made more sense to let us play a few hours with Ellie and Joel together (allowing fans to reminisce about our experience of the first game), then have the whole argument between the two, and then Joel's death. Joel's character was completely watered down from a cautious character who would never give his name to anyone, to a complete idiot with no character development in between. This would've been fine if there was that development.

    Playing as Abby was probably the worst decision to make. I'm sure most fans would never sympathize with her no matter how good of a person she is portrayed to be or what good deeds she has done. The only reason I somewhat enjoyed the Abby portion of this game (which is around 10 hours) was the better weapons she had over Ellie. I would like to add that Abby's part of the game would've been better had it been released as DLC rather than in the main story. This would've made more sense as it would've given us her side of the story separately without forcing players who loved the Ellie and Joel dynamic to play 10 hours as Joel's killer unwillingly. I felt no sympathy towards Lev, just because of his association to Abby.

    The ending was a straight kick in the face to the last 20-30 hours of the game. Ellie decides to let Abby go, after killing hundreds of people to get to her. This decision just seems misplaced and doesn't make any sense, just as Ellie realizes killing is bad. It's a shame because this game could have redeemed itself yet it sticks with a cliche ending    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There have been, and will be a lot of bad games in the history of gaming. Some are incomplete, some has boring gameplay, some carries unbearable bugs, etc. But TLOU2 is really a bad game of its own league. It is such a fine-crafted game. It inherits the gameplay of its prequel and adds many details to it. The guitar playing is great, the movements are so smooth, details when killing the enemies are impressive... It almost has all I need to call it "the game of PS4".

    But the core of TLOU is that it tells a story. It's not a game like the Witcher 3 where you have different consequences to your different choice. It's not a game like Super Mario Odyssey where the gameplay without any plot. TLOU strikes me as one of my (before I walked into this piece of garbage called TLOU2) because it tells a great story to me, a story that I can feel and love the characters. I do not agree with Joel's decision at the end of the TLOU but I can understand because along with the game I come to love Ellie too.

    Then there comes the TLOU2. A game that tells you a story of your most beloved person cruelly killed in front of you. You go to half of the country to find and kill and the murderer. Guess what? She kills your friend in front of you and now you play as her!

    The second half of this game is the worst gaming experience I have ever had. You have to play this person you hate. The second half would be totally fine if Abby wasn't the person who cruelly killed Joel. If she's just some unrelated person and this is called TLOU: another story or what so ever, I would like it. Instead, Neil and Naughty Dog decide to make us players feel Abby and her deep, complicated story. It almost feels like Neil is this arrogant person who want to lecture us in a philosophy or literature course. No matter how the game tells a full, well-rounded story about Abby, I can never like this character. The time playing as her feels worst. It denies everything I loved about TLOU.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was waiting for this game since the last one ended I thought that if the first game was this great the sequel would be better, but I was disappointed with this game so much that I don't think they can fix the series anymore, first of all the way they tricked us into thinking that jole would be a huge part of the game and then they just kill him in the first hour or two and not just that the way they killed him is so bad and humiliating , jole would never drop his guard like that in the first game jole was smart he knew how to survive and that is why he was the best character in the game.
    Secondly you had the audacity to make us play as his killer abby for half the game!!!
    The story was written so bad that I got so bored in the first 10 hours of the game and the characters were not relatable and boring,
    And the ending is the worst ending I ever saw.
    The only good thing in this game is the gameplay because it's similar to the original.    … Expand

But overall a good looking game. -Gameplay....is there really something to say about this? Same old boring copypaste of the first one with some minor changes.

    -Graphics are not something revolutionary, they are not bad but not perfect either. But overall a good looking game.
    -Gameplay....is there really something to say about this? Same old boring copypaste of the first one with some minor changes. The infamous jump button, some guitar sections.
    I've seen many people online and videos on YouTube talk and show how the game is a BROKEN piece of trash. So many glitches and bugs.
    -Story....the worst part of the whole game. We waited 7 years for this. Boring characters, boring old rEvEnGE story which we've TOTALLY NEVER seen before in a movie or videogame. Not just that but it executes it badly. The whole point is that revenge is bad, Abby gets her revenge and is awarded for it but Ellie goes through living hell and is punished for seeking her revenge. You literally cannot emotionally connect with the characters, and the way they try to make you to feel bad about your actions is so bad but not only that but they repeat it many times through the game. The way they try to make you sympathize with Abby is by making Ellie look like the villain, really shows their writing skills. The dialogue is so bad and the only way they could have done that to Joel was by making him stupid.
    Don't believe those fake 10/10 who literally give no explanation for their score. Only thing you'll see them say is "masterpiece","game of the year","amazing story","don't listen to the haters". In other words they say "dude trust me". They don't back up their opinion at all unlike all the people who give it a negative score who explain why they did so.
    Final words:
    Complete garbage, a waste of time and money. Keep your money for Ghost of Tsushima or Cyberpunk.    … Expand

Tommy and Joel became utterly stupid and have nothing in common with their counterpart from the first game and Ellie has no personality at all now she`s just gay. Don`t get me wrong I think it`s fine that she is gay but if being gay is the most interesting thing about the character you have made you seriously did something wrong at least Lev had some character development. Naughty Dog tried so hard to check all the political check boxes that they forgot to write a story that is actually believable. Overall I would give this game a 5/10 because if you ignore the story and the characters the game play and level design is really well made but because of the false advertising from Naughty Dog I just can`t go above a 0/10. At least CD Project RED leave these **** messages out of their games because they are one of the last studios that just want to deliver a good experience… Expand

    DO NOT BUY IT!
    Graphics and gameplay is pretty nice, but that’s all.
    Most of us were liking the the first part because of the amazing story and Charakter Development. The bonding Story of Ellie and Joel was amazing. We could cry, laugh and be happy and angry with them.
    But now they just completely change the Charakter of Ellie and kill Joel right at the beginning? That’ dog ****.
    Also the you have to play have the Game with Abby who tortured and killed Joel. I absolutely hated that.
    Also I have the feeling that they have stretched the game quite a lot because of all the unnecessary long ways. I absolutely didn’t have that in the first part.
    Every Charakter was just lame. In comparison the bow and traps friend of Joel in the first part was way more interesting then all of new characters in this game.
    Also Ellie kills hundreds of people on here way for revenge and then she rescues and spares her main target Abby even though she tortured and killed Joel, she nearly killed Tommy and she killed Jessie.
    That’s just a lot of bull ****.
    DO NOT BUY IT!    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After 7 years of awaiting this game's release saying I'm disappointed is an understatement to how this game let me down. The graphics were amazing and that's the only thing that was good about this game. The story lacked and everything about it screamed that this isn't the last of of us. Killing off Joel in the beginning of the game was a slap to the face of people that enjoyed the first game. I don't know who or how these decisions came to be but this game has let so many down and in all honesty naughty dog should feel let down as well, you guys and girls have decided that you didn't care for your fans and went with such a negative turn that this game needs to be thrown away and started again. The only way to save this is to make amends and to release a new last of us that we all deserve. I wont give this game a zero because that would be wrong but a solid 1 is what it deserves. It now gets a zero for not letting me post my review. Good job.… Expand

    If you fell in love with the first game DO NOT ever play this one. TLOU2 actively seeks to destroy everything that made the original so great. It’s full of cheap, hollow, and manipulative story telling that’ll leave you feeling empty and asking yourself why. I wish I had taken other people’s warnings before buying this.

The story is I dont know. I dont care about all directions that they could have gone with the story. But the main theme of the game "Revenge is bad" is generic not unique, and they were trying to make us feel bad for some characters we killed like Nora or Mel, but for me honestly they failed. I left the game not convinced that revenge is not worth it.… Expand

Game basically amounts to nothing. It feels more like a tech demo with cutscenes and only journalist mode (invisible while prone) makes it bearable to slog through the second half of the game.Absolutely terrible.

    Really enjoyed the game. I appreciate that we get to play as Donkey Kong, really bold move by Naughty Dog. Too bad the script was written by an actual monkey. Gameplay is truly innovative, now we are using ropes instead of ladders. I rate it -10/10, because it has a little something for everyone.

    The game seemed amazing at first and even Joel's death didn't make me dislike the game because I thought like many others that the devs would have utilised his death to make an amazing revenge story(We was wrong). Later on you play as Abby, the killer of Joel, for quite a significant amount of time. This completely made me lose interest in the games story because I didnt care for Abby as a character at all really. Later on I realised that Joel was dropped into scenes in the trailer, where in the game he wasn't even in them scenes and he was replaced by other characters. Naughty Dog has really flopped with this one and I think they should pull the game from stores and do the fans right by changing the story.    … Expand

But the problem is you can not ignore the first game. The first game had a beautiful and amazing story with the most realistic characters I have ever seen written. The atmosphere left you feeling like this world was supposed to be like the real one. Morally ambiguous and without a right answer, only a slightly better feeling one. In contrast this game states everything is black or white while quite literally spitting on the first games legacy. With scenes specifically made to be only shock factor, and leave you feeling sick at your stomach because you don't even get a proper resolution despite it being well within your grasp. And that is unforgivable and would lower any score dramatically if the reviewer did their job properly.… Expand

    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.
