    Um dos melhores jogos de todos os tempos!
    Jogo impecável, do roteiro ao gameplay, tudo foi feito com muita atenção aos detalhes, de forma a te prender no jogo durante muitas horas.
    Com toda a certeza um jogo memorável.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Okay. I had to take some time, to think about why I am so mad at this game and i wanted to write a review, as well, as i LOVED the first game. So let's talk about all the important (in my eyes) points:

    1. To much plot convinience and plot armor: Ppl show up at the perfect time to safe characters. Like Joel saving Abby, Dina Elli (multiple times), Lev Abby and so on and so on.

    2. Pacing: The pacing was **** We got 6 storys in one, basically. 2 Backstories, 2 Flashbackstories & Prologue and Epilog.

    3. Hypocrisy: LGBTQ Characters were implemented, which is totally fine, but they didn't get the meaning behind it. Perfect Example is when Lev gets called Lilly and then asks Abby if she wanted to ask questions, only to say that she/he would rather not talk about it. Like wtf. It's a major point for Lev and why their story arc is even happening. But no one really ever talks about why their sexuality is a cruicial point. Same goes for showing Sex between Owen and Abby, but cutting out Dinas and Ellies. Showing Heterosex but not Sex between two young women? Hipocrisy at its best.

    4. The destruction of Characters.

    a) Young Ellie was brave, witty and overall just super lovable. Grown up Elli got shredded to angry and lesbian. Again, i don't hate on her sexuality, we've been confronted with homosexuality in the first Part - Bill. I hate the fact that this is literally her only character trait in this game. But we covered that in 3.

    b) Joel & Tommy. Joel was fierce, caring only for a few and very cautious. He dropped a neighborhood family a few hours into the pandemy and now randomly safes a young women from a horde of infected? To walk to their hideout, where armed ppl where with military vehicles and tells them his name straight up? And Tommy even INVITING those strangers to stack up at their village? No. Tommy is even worse, as he lives to get his character completely shredded. He went through 3 stages of Revenge: First, refusing it, Second, going alone to get it and third, almost FORCING ellie to go hunt Abby AGAIN, because he no longer can? Heck no.

    5. Lying and manipulating.

    a) Lying: Naughty Dog straight up lied to us multiple times. Like we wouldn't have to kill a dog, yet animal brutality was shown multiple times (Ellies Horse, Quicktime event where you can't even decide AGAINST killing abbys Dog, etc.) + the Trailer of 2019, where they edited Joels Model to trick us into thinking they'd go on a journey together. You can't tell me, in a 3 year production of the game, that half a year of release they completely changed the story (which would have been needed, cause the point joel showed up was far into the actual game). Just disgusting and one of the reasons that i and probably many others bought the game.

    b) Manipulation: Showing how animal loving Abby is in multiple occasions is just the cheapest trick, to get sympathy from the viewers/gamers and overall trying hard to display her as a "good" character through saving kids. Abby is displayed as a WLF Soldier and those kill the Scars. She never gave a second thought about killing ppl (Like killing joel, who just safed her live, shooting Jesse, Killing pregnant Dina, etc) but she does not kill those kids, cause... plot?
    Also: Telling a double Revenge story, to finally say "Revenge is bad" is like raping a Person to say "Rape is bad"

    6. Gameplay. Hasn't really changed from Part 1. Which WOULD be fine, if it was still a well told Story (what made Part 1 better, together with its much faster pacing). In this game we are confronted with hordes of enemies to stretch a game already too long even more. Gets repeatitive super fast.

    7. Soundtrack and Visuals: Those are on point, can't argue there. But eyecandy is not going to make up for the story and it's characters.

    Conclusion: The last of us 2 has basically a similar problem for me as Metal Gear solid Phantom Pain: It's a good game (or great game in MGSPPs Case), but a really ****ty Last of Us.    … Expand

Thank you Neil Druckman for making things clear and pushing your own agenda for the higher purpose of the franchise after all this disaffected player couldn't understand the meaning of Part 1. Only a literally genius like you could save such a lame story with character changes influenced by your opionon, regarding the feelings of every minority in such good manners.
    Lmao when i read opionions about some gamer dumbasses complaining about part 1. Looses and how to get over it and bla bla. Do they think to own a nobel prize in literature ?!?!
    Neil, my man knows what it's all about. It's simple. Play golf with the face of a old men and a good old in and out game. So glad this **** get slaughtered from a strong independet women. Because **** the patriarchy. She likes animals and helped two kids of a minority. That's the only right thing to do, not like this psycho freak crawling around and seeming to be controlled by some force which let kill her innocent people. It's only Abbies right to kill because she do it for wlf. They have reasons.
    Her crew was so adorable and it makes me sad we couldn't met for some burritos and do some smalltalk, because that's quality time.
    In the end the psycho kid looses it's fingers and isn't capable to roll some faties. I guess, you get what you ****ing deserve gollum. I wish Abbie a nice boat trip. She earns it that much after she was near death dying for the sins of degenerated gamers, who don't understand the concept of newtons law. Believe it ****s. Violence is bad. It's Violence=Violence. Now you can call you woken. The next time i'll see you killing some AI i'll call your parents so they take away your ps4 and you are forced to play outside in a sandbox.
    Thanks Neil for the enlightnement in such so dark times. You are the chosen one, sent to change the world we live in to the better.    … Expand

    I'm so sad about how they destroyed all of the characters from tlou1.
    Even if I'd accept, that they killed Joel,
    Trying to make us feel guilty for wanting revenge isn't what I can see as a good story.
    I can't sympathize and I won't sympathize with Abby.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Así no! Naughty Dog, Los héroes no mueren, cuando vieron a Nintendo matar a Mario o a Zelda, la gallina de los huevos de oro no se mata, Rockstar lo hizo con su vaquero: pero antes nos presentó el reemplazo y nos hizo amigos de él y el cambio no se sintió.. AMC lo hizo con Rick pero la serie de zombies perdió su gran audiencia. No es por homofóbia, no es por dañar el excelente trabajo de gameplay y producción, es por acabar con el héroe de la pantalla de los últimos años, el más humano, el más real, el más cercano. Lo llevaron a un nivel tan alto de entrada, que eliminarlo tan pronto fue un error. En esta sociedad moderna donde los lideres políticos, dañan su imagen robando, donde los sacerdotes son acusados de abuso, donde no hay valores, donde hay poca fé, quitarnos el gran héroe no es un acto de valor si no una cobardía, el juego puede ser técnicamente muy bueno, pero la historia es una mordida de infectados en el cuello.
    De mi parte no espero, ni quiero una tercera parte a menos que inicie con el despertar del sueño en el que estuvo Eli en esta parte! Si no seré un usuario menos, como lo dejé de ser de the walking dead.

    Joel no se comporta como una persona que se mantuvo sobreviviendo por 20 años en un mundo apocaliptico. Rescata una desconocida salvandole la vida, para que luego su hermano (exterrorista luciernaga) exponga los nombres de ambos a la desconocida. Para posteriormente decidir refugiarse con el grupo de abby (algo incluso mas peligroso).

    En cuanto a elli, esta chica se convirtio en progre hipter, odia a joel al enterarse que le salvo la vida porque no estaba dispuesto joel a dejar morir a quien mas amaba nunca mas. Ellie rompe la relacion padre hija que se forjo en la primera entrega. Uno pensaría que el lavado de cerebro de la lider lucienaga se le abría disipado debido a que ahora ellie había encontrado alguien que la amaba y protegia. Sin embargo persiste el echo de querer haber sido sacrificada por una posible nula cura, que habría sido un muerte en vano.

    Finalmente las motivaciones para continuar el juego son malas, Que sentido tiene querer vengar a Joel si ya no lo quieres? que sentido tiene querer vengarlo si están en depresión porque querías haber muerto por obtener una vacuna?

    No contentos con esto, te hacen jugar con la enemiga de ellie para 'empatizar' a la fuerza. que sentido tiene juegar con el enemigo si ni siquiera queremos matarlo( la relacion de joel y ellie estaba muerta y ella con depesion) xd
    Despues tienes que combatir con ellie siendo la enemiga, te hacen ver la enemiga (abby) como una angel victima y a ellie como una loca sádica sin sentido.

    Varios sabemos que el final es una mierda, osea nulo sentido perdonar quien mato a quien se supone que amas mientras te arranca dos dedos que después no te dejan tener lo único que le pudo dejar joel (tocar la guitarra). Bien mierda el final, después de matar a todos los amigos xd    … Expand

    the only good about this game was the graphic, the gameplay so mediocore nothing new.
    and for the biggest reason why people play this game because the story. there are many post apocalyptic/zombie games that have equal or better graphic/gameplay than this.
    now after you ruin the biggest aspect of this game , you expect people to have good review?
    I dont think so dude...

    Naughty Dog tried to please everyone, in the end they did not please most of the gamers!

    Very linear average gameplay, no choices, same as we know it from part one. But the story is such a mess and so badly written it really destroyed the gaming experience.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story choices sucked, instead of using the already existing depth of the characters, they killed Joel and pushed aside Tommy, new characters have zero depth, Ellie was turned into a punk with anger issues, most of the dialogues and the acting that comes with them were cring and awkward accept of Joel and Tommy, the game play was boring adn repetitive except few sequences, there was nothing original in terms of the game play, except the guitar thing, the puzzles ... were lame and so easy and they felt like fillers, the AI was terrible, you are literally side by side with the enemy yet they don't detect you, I didn't like the pacing of it, the music was not impressive, the graphics were awesome I'll give them that but we have already seen games with that level of detail such as DS, character design same **** from the old game, weapons and system management is exactly the same as the previous game, They didn't even explain the world conflict in any depth and I felt lost , it felt so one-dimensional. it was trash!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let's be fair, the story itself isn't awful, and I actually liked the idea behind it. However, like everyone else, I am gravely disappointed with this game as a sequel of the original installment and it's almost the direct opposite of what I am expecting to get.

    …and no, it's not about artistic liberty, nor "subverting expectations," or anything about Naughty Dog making a "bold move" -- which is the biggest mistake of Neil Druckmann, the writer of this game. When creating a sequel, one must work within the constraints set forth by the previous game, and maintain continuity of the idea behind the story. The first game is all about how Joe forms a very unique bond with Ellie as they continue their journey. It's about how Joe teaches Ellie how to survive, takes her to experience the world, and how Ellie helps Joe to open up his heart and slowly regain humanity that has arguably been lost from the death of his daughter. It's about love in a brutal world, and it's hopeful, and that's why people love it. At the end, Joe was put in an impossible situation and ultimately decides to save Ellie's life at the expense of a chance in a cure. How long would Joe be able to keep the secret? How would Ellie react to the truth? How would the two regain trust of each other, and forming a bond even deeper? These are the the questions left unanswered in the first game, the questions that players expect the "direct sequel" to further explore.

    Yet, Neil Druckmann tosses away all the hopefulness and love -- the very element that made the first game so great. Instead, he decides that it's a good idea to make an overwhelmingly depressing and morbid story as a "sequel." Don't get me wrong -- I don't dislike the game because it made me sad. Rather -- to put it bluntly -- it's because of the gross disrespect and disregard to the first game and its audience, which is a totally preventable, yet huge mistake. It is no wonder many people choose to pretend that this game doesn't even exist and deem it "non-canonical." For the same reason, it receives my 1-star rating. [MAJOR SPOILERS ALERT FOR THE REST OF THIS REVIEW]

    And that is only the first issue of the story (though, the only one that many people need to skip the game). Beyond what's said above, there are a lot of other storytelling issues that weakens the experience even further. Joe is killed within the first 2 hours of gameplay and when the plot reaches its first climax where Ellie finally confronts Joe's killer, Abby, we're forced to play as Abby for almost 8 hours, which is a huge mistake is story-telling. This is only intensified by the fact that Abby's story is very fragmented without a clear, overarching goal. Granted, her combat missions are some of the highlights in the entire game, which is a shame because story-wise, it feels like a drag for most, unbearable for some. And this FRANCHISE is all about the story.

    And that's not even all the main story issues. I don't want to expand too much here because it's just a review, and for that purpose enough has been said. Bottom line is, if you like depressing, morbid stories, this game is for you. However, as a sequel of the original game, which it unarguably is marketed and expected as one, it's an enormous failure.    … Expand

Joel was the main protagonist of the first game and truly on of the most unique game characters ever to exist - and the developers had only his rushed death in mind? SHAME ON YOU! They killed him in a way he absolutely didnt deserve. Also it doesnt make sense, that Ebbie and her stupid friends came all the way just to kill Joel? Its so completely random that it cant make sense. And then you even have to play that stupid piece of **** Ebbie. That makes even less sense! How are you supposed to create a good character binding like in the first part if you actually hate the character you are playing? What where those stupid SJW cucks thinking? Neither on of the characters except Joel, Ellie and aslo Lev and his sister meant something to me. Was i supposed to feel less angry if i play Ebbies storyline?? Did you really think that? I didnt even feel ANYTHING when i **** murdered the pregnant woman who **** deserved to die like all of the other **** as well. Same goes for Ellie.

Mechanics are a minor improvement over the last game, but the story is lacking, characters are OUT of character, doing things they WOULD know better than to do given what we know of them, the plot is contrived, and characters we do interact with just are nowhere near as compelling as the first game, even actively unlikable.

    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.
