    Все кто говорит, что игра плохая - лжецы!
    И есть три причины!
    Первая - гомофобия!
    Вторая - узкое мышление!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. visually this is a very beautiful game, but when it comes to the story this is nothing but a snuff film inspired game where the moral of the story only leads to nihilism. If you want to play a game that cares about the story and focuses on well scripted dialog that doesn't feel forced then i recommend playing the first game.
    My score 3/10

Very good game, people just need to understand that this was a hate story... yes the game could have done a better job explaining the story... but if your are not dumb... it was a good game with a good story to tell...if yall are mad that joel died then...please answer this question. Would you not kill the guy who killed your dad/mom? And also ellie did not kill cause then she would have to live knowing that she killed an innocent life because all abby did was revenge, if ellie killed that going to traumatize her for the rest of her life. She already got hurt killing a pregnant person. And if she did kill her then it was going to he a cycle again. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. You know, I liked Abby. She became a man for the sake of a dream to take revenge and turn everything back, for the sake of the salvation of mankind and the memory of her mother. Maybe this Joel broke everything? He stole the life of millions for the sake of Ellie, which he imagines his? No, wasn’t that all? He saved one by exchanging billions of people for their lives. He killed many, including doctors - hope. Is it hard to do the right thing? But here it’s not up to the twisting of hands, morality is all ...
    Everything was hypertrophied, well, that's the author’s work
    As a result, all the right sides lost everything. And friends and family and the future. And in the end they remained with their own, BUT alone
    Ellie is shown on the female side, do not laugh, just the woman also wants to be strong, almost like a man, but almost. In the end, she surrenders, recognizes her weakness, and manifests her feminine component
    As a result, a mishmash of images where boys and girls are confused. I didn’t like it
    And there is no hatred there, you are wrong. It's just a plot

It makes you appreciate what we have in 2020 despite all the bullsh*t because as humans we have been through the pain of these characters 1000 years ago before everything was warm and cozy like it is today (in comparison to when we were cavemen).

    Every mechanic. Every voice line. Every twist and turn in the story, is perfect and I haven't nor will I ever hold a game closer to my heart than this game.

    Going through this game and experiencing everything these characters go through, you build an actual real-life relationship with them. And when these characters go through positive or negative emotions, the player directly feels them. In the last scene of this game my heart broke, it gave me intense flashbacks to when my nan passed, and when I lost who I thought at the time was the love of my life. And I cried and cried and cried.

    This game is not for the light-hearted, it's actually emotionally draining playing a game with such intense emotion. I loved it, and I hated it, and that's life. You can't go through it with everything good, happy, and perfect. People die, get sick. People leave and leave you broken and the last of us portrayed these human emotions we all feel perfectly.

    Thank you to all the people who helped make this game possible. Thankyou naughty dog. I aspire to write a book that is as emotionally intense as the story for this game, you have all inspired me to be a better person. Thank you.

Хотя, возможно, этим людям нужно просто сходить в туалет, ибо дерьмо их просто распирает изнутри.Лучшая игра поколения. Сюжет и раскрытие персонажей на высоте .

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have only played a couple hours of the game so far, but I have actually loved it. I can’t say if it’s better than the first yet, but it is a much darker and brutal game than the first. It is a progression of the first game, so yes there is a MAJOR death at the beginning. Its what drives Ellie’s need for vengeance, not unlike how Joel’s love for his daughter was resurrected through Ellie and made him protect her and get her to her destination. Granted that ended up making him decide to massacre the fireflies and doctors trying to find a cure for the virus. The Last of Us Part II shows us the consequences of Joel’s actions. Joel obviously held some guilt over his decision, and as a player he’s still of my favorite characters in video game (and media) history and this makes *SPOILERS* his death extremely tragic and heart wrenching. It’s a moment not unlike Sara dying in front your eyes; it makes you feel helpless and to me, I had to pause the game to dry my tears so I could push forward. The review bombing going on is by people who can’t accept a realistic, life-like, gritty story in video games. It’s ridiculous that this is being allowed and that people are this petty over a video game. I’ll be sure to leave a full review once I’m completed. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Imagine criticizing a video game just because you feel like it, I only read reviews from people who after 10 minutes of playing gives a 0 for who knows what reason. People have no idea what's behind the development of a video game, and giving zero to such a game is proof of that. Let's start from the technical side of the game: simply flawless, very high quality gameplay, attention to detail never seen before in a video game, all to create a unique gaming experience. I see people complaining about the plot, it may not be at the level of the first title, for various reasons, such as the fact that it is no longer a novelty (often the sequel has a slightly flatter plot) or the fact that Naughty Dog has tried to insert a new main character, but seeing people complaining that there are holes in the plot or that it is all about revenge and that the actions of the characters do not make sense, is equivalent to not understanding the topics covered by this title, nor have any idea how human beings think; because coincidentally behind these works there are studies by industry experts. The main theme is certainly revenge, but the evolution of the plot and the behavior of the charcaters contains a set of emotions that go far beyond simple revenge. The game is impeccable, whether you like it or not, but the quality of the product is undeniable, and i loved the gameplay and the story too, because you know what? that's exaclty how people would behave in such situation. A solid 10 for this masterpiece, Naughty Dog never misses a shot.
    PS: Oh yeah maybe people doesen't know that TLOU is the story of Ellie and not of Joel.

    Amazing, all the hat towards this masterpiece is completely absurd, coming from people who didn't even play/finish the game.

    I finally managed to finish TLOU2. The game is much, much longer than the first and its story is more complicated, dense and dark. The history and the ending has been criticized as “unsatisfying.” For me, it’s really the only way it could have ended. This entire game is a commentary on moral relativism (what I see as right and justified, you see as wrong and abominable), and the circularI finally managed to finish TLOU2.

The ending, from that perspective, works. It’s kind of perfect, actually.

    The game is stunning. It has incredible graphics and is fun. It’s a deeply well-told story to the point where I genuinely cannot understand why anyone who has fully beaten the game, not just heard the spoilers, not just watched a streamer, doesn’t appreciate what Naughty Dog has achieved here. The game is remarkable, and it will stay with me a long while, just like the first.

    The atmosphere is just fantastic, much better than the first game.
    Visually is the most beautiful game that I ever seen.
    And I love how Neil Druckmann has the courage for tell us this story touching themes that are so neccesary in our days.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To me, the game fulfilled its purpose, it delivered the message in a way that's easy to understand, to those who haven't played or who are simply unhappy with the direction the game went is this, there is no good and evil, there is no black and white, we play as both the 'Protagonist' (Ellie) and the 'Antagonist', Abby, pretty evenly in terms of time spent, we see Ellie oncher bloodthirsty quest for revenge against Abby for killing her father figure, Joel, whole we see Abby go on a redeeming story arc about how she helped the survival of two siblings of a rival tribe because they had saved her. Now because we were with Ellie in part 1, we automatically perceive as everything she does as 'good' or at least justified, but in her quest we suddenly realise that Ellie has brought herself to Abbys level when she stabbed 'Mel' in the neck, not realising that indeed she is pregnant much like Ellies love interest 'Dina'. We also see Abbys justification for killing Joel as the head doctor of the Fireflies on Salt Lake City was indeed her father. To put this simply, the concept of Retribution is put under fire, even tho to many people it is the easier way to go, and with this, many people are unhappy with the way of the direction of the story, which is understandable, but just because you dont like the way this story went for our beloved franchise, does not mean the story is inherently bad, and does not disintegrate the value of the message within this game. (Also, I tried so hard to find the so called agenda that Naughty Dog tried to shove down our throats, and apart from one time at the very beginning, there was nothing else, it's not filled with SJW propaganda or anything like that, if there was, I'd say cus I too hate that) Expand

    This game is amazing. It's definitely one of the greatest single player games I've ever played. I'm not sure why they're are a lot of reviews giving it really low ratings and talking about it being political or having an agenda. The gameplay is better and the story is absolutely amazing. I can't stop playing this. Thank you Naughty Dog.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Amazing game. People are just butt hurt they killed Joel. He had to die. He did something bad, whatever good reason he had, he did something bad, and killed a lot of people. The game does a great job showing you the consequences of his actions and how not everything if black and white. Ellie and Joel are NOT good people entirely (Joel sacrificed humanity for Ellie, Ellie killed a pregnant woman). But, the main bad guys of the story aren’t also entirely evil, nor good. We’re showed the WLF as this bad faction and militarized thing and bad all around but then you get to see their society and how your actions also affect “REAL” people’s lives. Everyone has their reasons, and good reasons, to do the things they did. Joel killed Abby’s dad for Ellie, and Abby had every right to kill Joel. And Ellie has her right to be angry and vengeful but that doesn’t make her a good person, no one is. This is great story telling. You play both sides and it is compelling. I was mad when I got to play as Abby again because I love Joel, but then I got why that happen. Again, great storytelling, great art style, great gameplay (drags on a little by the end, but because I wanted no get to the end so badly and know that happens), great graphics and technical achievements, etc. Truly a masterpiece. Not perfect, but it achieved everything it set out to made. Expand

    Pra mim esse jogo é definido como obra de arte, simples. Em conjunto com o primeiro, é o jogo mais complexo da história, com uma narrativa que transcende as noçoes comuns sobre moralidade e valores. Ensinam que nesse mundo, o mundo de joel e ellie, NÃO EXISTE herói nem vilao, no fundo todos querem apenas sobreviver e acabam tendo que lidar com as consequências dessas acões.

    The game was the pioneer in introducing many accessibility options for people with visual, motor and hearing impairments. It has more than 60 accessibility settings, incredible graphics and an extremely engaging narrative. Better than Death Stranding, for example.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. HEAVY SPOILERS!!!

    First of all, I loved this game. Secondly, I am deeply disappointed with the gaming community - or maybe people in general.
    The game is daring and it tries to give a realistic presentation of what a post-apocalyptic world would be(like the first game). It ADDS a serious amount of context for the story of the first game. As a matter of fact the first one feels lacking without the context of the second because you get to know the characters’ feelings and thoughts better. The story is indeed a cycle of violence. The fact that Joel dies saddens every fan but it doesnt mean that it is an injustice to the character. Joel did many questionable things. One of them caught up to him in the end thus propelling Ellie to a new adventure. The game shows you that life is a matter of perspective. Was Abby in the wrong for wanting to get revenge and killing Joel? Was Ellie wrong for wanting the same? Did that justify killing other people indirectly involved? Was Joel in the wrong for not letting Ellie die because he viewed her as his daughter but they possibly lost the cure for the infection? All these questions and more are hard to answer and are ethical dylemmas that require you to see them from a certain perspective. So yea, in this realistic brutal world, revenge is a thing, violence is a thing and hatred is a thing. Also the fact that you see Abby’s side is important for the story and vital though I really liked Ellies playstyle way more.(she is more nimble-better suited weapons for me) People crying because Joel died seems stupid to me. The game overall improves in every way. Gameplay is really good and has evovled(and i dont get why some people say its the same). Acting, animations, graphics etc are out of this world. Ending was almost perfect for me, it gives a ray of hope in the bleak world that humanity continues to devastate. I dont know why people thought that this would be Ellie's happy adventures but this franchise was always about hardships and relationships. All in all, some people just dont own Ps4 but xbox, some have problems with lesbians and trans people( btw Abby is not trans she just goes a lot to the gym), some people are really sensitive and had false expectations and some people just like to ride the bandwagon of hate towards something. Most of the aforementioned people havent played the game let alone finished it. Or they are magicians who finished the game some hours after metacritic opened user reviews. We also have an abnormal amount of user reviews..I wonder why.
    In conclusion. I would rate this game 97-98/100. Its a masterpiece in my opinion. Maybe the best single player story driven game I have ever played. I am just really sad that people are the way the are. Makes me think that the Last of Us part II gives a clear message that applies like a glove to the real world: people are filled with hatred and that it is shown by their actions.

    It doesn't make any sense that this game is in the three-point range. I was angry that something sad happened in this game. However, the more I did, the more I understood the character Abby, and it was comforting to see Elly and Joel playing in the past. The more I saw the game and graphics, the more I was amazed.The Last of us Part 2 is a masterpiece.

    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]
