    This new game is flawed conceptually, emotionally, and in execution. It’s time for politics to be taken out of video games. Do not waste your money.

Суть всей первой части в этой игре исчезает, концовка была мне вообще не понятной, сразу она при воспоминании Джоэла хотела убить Эбби, а потом решила ни с того ни с чего отпустить, не сделав ей ничего, а Эбби лишила ее пальцев, которые в лесбиянских отношениях нужны, хотя и Дина ее кинула, и по сути та которую мы помним из первой части стала никем, и не угодила никакому типу игроков.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game managed to kill such an important character, the main character from the first game in a very poorly written way: Joel after the first game where he didn't trust no one decided to go with some random strangers, give his real name and die in a cutscene, so we couldn't even play that moment. After that we got forced to play 10 hours with his killer in orded to empathize with her (for example by putting a scene where Ellie had to kill a dog and after that a scene where Abby pet a dog). There aren't real develpoment because is just a go back and forth and all of this, without considering a lot of things that didn't have sense like how in some point of the game the main group was all injured and still managed to make out of Seattle and retun to Jackson alive or how Lev managed to survive from a punch in the face by a man that probably weight more than 100 kg after had hitten a garage door, or last because otherwise this would be too long putting your best medic who is pregnant in first line in order to get killed. Adding to this the ending where Ellie after she killed so much people, lose Joel, lose 2 fingers decide to spare Abbie, the murder, becuase the game has to show that revenge is bad. The gameplay and graphic are good but in a story telling game for me the most important part is the story, and this story is bad, with no character develpoment, ruining all the good things from the first game and without the multiplay mode too.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Had to bring myself to play half the game as Abby only for the love i have for Tlou1. This sequel is a huge disappointment. The graphics are amazing, the gameplay is pretty good. The characters are butchered to make gullible players hate them. And the story is just a straight up 0/10. If you have never played Tlou1 then this game should be pretty good for you, if you played Tlou1 then this game is more of a spinoff than a sequel. What should have been the easiest sequel in the history of gaming, became as disappointing as star wars and game of thrones. The last of us is Ellie and Joel. The bond made the game. Not to mention Naughty Dog flat out lied to everyone and false advertised the game to make it seem like a Joel and Ellie game which was not the case. Definitely would recommend the game to anyone who doesn't care about story and what not.… Expand

    Yes, I really believe this game deserves a 0 and I'm going to explain why.

    The only positive qualities of this game are the graphics, level design, music and the game runs with very little performance issues. These positives would normally be enough to make a game at least above average in the 5 to 7 range but the endless negative qualities destroy all of this. I cannot recommend more that no one ever play this game because of the negative qualities.

    Gameplay is overrated and ends up being underwhelming. In seven years, the only newly added gameplay aspects on top of the first game is the ability to prone and squeeze through tight narrow passages. On face value these additions to gameplay seem slick and are incorporated well into the level design but they are not industry innovative and not nearly enough to make you forget that you need to mash a single button repeatedly during QT events. The melee combat is uninspiring while the gunplay is merely acceptable.

    Perhaps the real problem for Part 2 is that the first game exists allowing Part 2 to be viewed in comparison. The first game was a masterpiece because it built up the characters and their relationship so elegantly. The conclusion was reached in a such a meaningful way that its impact will be fondly remembered for the rest of my life. Nothing about Part 2 comes close except for a few flashbacks that ironically remind you what it might be like to play a good game.

    The creators of Part 2 eagerly abuse the players emotions by exploiting what was built in the first game just to manufacture a driven plot. This is the height of laziness that is only confirmed by the numerous plot holes and Dues Ex Machina. The creators of Part 2 fail under their own weight as even the conclusion in this nightmare is wholly unearned. The message of Part 2 is completely lost because of how incomprehensible and irredeemable the characters and plot are.

    Part 2 is so bad that if the first game never existed, The Last of Us Part 2 would aptly be described as torture porn. The creators of this game should feel ashamed to have created this dumpster fire called The Last of Us Part 2. If I worked on this game in any compacity, I would hide this fact from the world to save myself from endless embarrassment.

    DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. Save yourself from this joke game which will forever live in infamy.    … Expand

    We waited 7 years (Thank god it's not more than that) for this. I don't even know how to describe what they did here - they butchered, killed, and destroyed what was once the best story a video game can ever have. They just did an unnecessary death which is just really, really, really stupid. I do get that his death was coming, but woow, what a way to trash it. It's like watching Harry Potter movies without Harry Potter, and even worse, by killing him in the first 10 minutes of the film and rub his death on our faces, spat and rudely tease it. That's how stupid the story is. And then they try to let us empathize with a character we literally do not even care or have any idea about. You just made the #1 game in my opinion, to the worst game ever. I am so disappointed.

    God, I tried so hard to avoid any spoilers, but holy **** if I did see any, I would have NEVER bought this game. It belongs to the trash.

    In the end, is there any "Ellie" there in the real world who might want to start a revenge plot against this game's director? Count me in if there is. (this is a joke, but wow I cannot measure the level of anger I got from this game).    … Expand

En mi opinión el juego si esta bueno pero no mucho pero no es malo esta en un punto intermedio, en cuanto a jugabilidad, graficos, un poco de la historia, y esas cosas el juego estuvo muy bueno, lo unico son esas cosas que recalque que EN MI OPINION arruinan un poco la historia, pero no la arruina del todo ni mucho, son pequeñas cosas que a mi gusto cambiaron todo el rumbo a lo que yo esperaba. Pero el juego en si esta muy bueno y me parece que no deberia tener todo el hate que tiene, nada mas lo que recalque y pocas cosas mas, pero no cambia demasiado la historia, la verdad que el juego esta bueno en si. Al juego le doy un: 8.3… Expand

    Although the game has an outstanding graphic and more or less engaging gameplay (which still becomes a bit tiring after 20+ hours), writing and story in general are so weak and that's destroys everything. Moreover, Abby makes almost the half of the game absolutely meaningless. I wonder whose idea was that (Mr. Druckman perhaps), that's a total fail    … Expand

How do you go from promising the fans that the game would be about the story and relationship of the two main protagonists from game one to forcing you to play as the antagonist who just killed a character you made them fall in love with 7 years ago? What in the hell is wrong with you naughty dog... Honestly the death of Joel I had accepted a long time ago, and to be truthful? I expected it at the end or near end of this game. But no... 2 hours in... without even giving us a chance to use his character in game! Especially after you advertised this game with Joel and Ellie featuring in the trailers heavy and literally lying to us with regards to the “didn’t think I would make you do this in your own” scene... that’s a separate issue I have entirely!!!

    Graphics were amazing as per usual, music and general workings of the game were 10/10...

    But the story had literally killed this franchise for me. Such a shame you had 7 years and kept us waiting for that... what a pile of crap    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. WTF did I just play? So if this game was a standalone game and were not a sequel to TLOU1 than it would be a pretty decent game but oh boy if you compare part 1 to part 2 there are dimensions between them. How could someone approve this kind of story writing? Almost all characters act out of their character what we learnt and seen throughout the first game and then they gave us new characters with almost no personalities and killed them off pretty fast and everyone just forgot about them like they never existed. I could go one and on and on but that would take too much time. So in conclusion:

    Gameplay: 4/10 (it's almost exactly the same like the first one)
    Music: 9/10
    Voice acting: 9/10
    Story: 2/10 (this is generous because of the flashbacks between Joel and Ellie)
    The game: 2/10

    If you loved the first game don't bother to buy the sequel you'll be disappointed how poorly they write and treated the characters we fell in love with through the first game. If you support this game it's like you would spit on joels corpse.    … Expand

It's about the story and nothing else. I could live with Part 1 graphics - I don't need that. I will sell this game today - no matter how much ... I want to get rid of it today.

The game is riddled with painfully inserted gender politics, thanks to the contributors you employed. Dirty gender politics have no place in a popular story, keep that stuff for quirky indy games. Much like Rian Jonson's movie you have done nothing to advance the story but inhected a political message and threw in two androgenic characters having a quick, dry, root. If you story writers could stop sniffing your own farts and put together a cohesive story that would be great....… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I just finished this abomination and created this account to join in adding my voice to the rest of the fans of the previous game who feel aggrieved and let down by Naughty Dog. What on earth were they thinking? Didn't they actually play the last game? I'm asking Naughty Dog for my money back. The story plainly is awful; Joel's early demise is handled without respect for the history we as the gamer have had with him. Is it simply a poor copy of the "Sarah" moment from TLOU for the sake of an early shock to roll the opening credits to? The characters just don't capture that great chemistry that Joel & Ellie had from TLOU, Dina & Ellie just don't have it, their story / interactions were just boring or annoying and felt more like pushing an agenda rather than making or developing a story. Ellie & Riley from the Left Behind DLC were much better. However, their dull contributions cause nowhere near as much grief as the proverbial knife in the back from Naughty Dog in forcing us to play half the game as Abby, Joel's killer. This is a character that has no redeeming qualities or interest to me whatsoever. I feel bad for all the animators and mo-cap artists whose work I didn't see because I skipped her cut scenes at every opportunity I could in order to get to the end of her appearances; I just didn't care less what happened to her and I often fed her to the infected or threw her off tall buildings in the hope that it would enact some kind of digital voodoo to give the writers violent diarrhoea of an equally appropriate level. I cannot believe I waited seven years for this. I don't buy Joel getting caught by a group of well armed strangers given his experience of years as a smuggler and even sometime hunter and I don't buy Ellie wading through dozens of killings (of other people) to meet her nemesis (twice!) only to let her go after realising "killing bad" without any kind of communication or resolution other than more fighting. It just doesn't make sense - its a triple kick in the teeth - Joel's death, Awful Abby and Ellie's Revenge that wasn't. This is not a worthy sequel, its not even a funny parody.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This has to be one of the most disappointing sequels of all time, disrespectful to the first game and all that it stood for. The story is poorly executed and full of plot holes. The characters that we've waited 7 years for are shadows of their former selves and act idiotically. I feel mislead by false advertising, I bought this game for a story about Ellie and Joel, a story about revenge. I play as another character for half the game that I despised for brutally torturing and murdering my favorite character 2 hours into the game. How an earth was this approved of. The second half of the game was a drag and suffered from some of the worst pacing issues I've ever had the displeasure of experiencing. What also made the original game so special were the side characters, how they were all stellar in their own unique ways. They truly were a gift, I can name every single one of them and remember why I liked them years later for how impressionable they were. Every single one of the new characters lacked depth, I just didn't care and by the time you start growing any connection to them they all are maimed or die. What in the hell were they thinking skipping the 4 years we actually were interested in. They rely so much on shock value and shoving a message down your throat that they sacrificed a well thought out streamlined plot with phenomenal character development which is why most people loved the 1st game. I just felt nothing for these characters. At every moment I see violence is bad. look here abby collects coins, there's two sides to every story, I DON'T CARE. Look you killed Abby's dog now go play fetch with it. I DON'T CARE. It's so manipulative. Look she's pregnant, dead. Feel bad, Ellie bad after Ellie ACTUALLY kills her in self defense. Look at what you've become, let abby live, PISS OFF. After everything I don't even get to kill Abby the psycho who feels no regret after anything she did, at least Ellie was questioning herself, shaking and puking. In the words of the pregnant lady "You're a piece of **** Abby". Shooting someone who save you with a shotgun and hitting them with a golf club, shooting children, sleeping with people in relationships, being so great at killing you're one of the highest members of the WLF.
    She got revenge and got away with Lev, Ellie doesn't get revenge losing everything. Miserable game, It's the death of the franchise for many. It already needs to be remade. I've never felt so disappointed with a game ever. I've never felt the need to review a game until this one. I really wanted a great sequel or no sequel at all, this has tainted the 1st game for me which is my favorite game of all time. That was my worst fear.    … 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.
