    Es perfecto. El gameplay es maravilloso, muy gratificante jugarlo. Gran cantidad de secretos. Invita mucho a la exploración. Sigue teniendo ese toque de terror en algunas partes de sigilo que te hielan la sangre. Muy contento con el juego.

    Must play for any fan of the first one. One of the best games I've ever played. Character development is just incredible. The game really puts you in the shoes of the characters you're playing, making you bond with them as the story progresses. I really loved the new mechanics introduced in this game, as well as some of the old ones that have been transferred into it. An absolute masterpiece

    It's a really great game in every aspect, the only reason why people (who probably haven't even played the game) bombard it with bad reviews is because they are misogynistic homophobes who watched one YouTube video about the leaked ending in which another homophobe says it's bad.

Игра очень хороша, не смотрите на нулевые рейтинги это животные, игра даёт возможность почувствовать всё что происходит вокруг, приподносит так что бы вы не знали кто прав и кто не прав, в этой игре нет правых и не правых и этим отличается игра от других, а концовка так хороша что я аж заплакал, советую всем поиграть и получить свой опыт.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's been a really long year for everyone. What with COVID19 and all.. But I've waited even longer for this game to come out. And I just finished it. If a game is "supposed to be bad", why after 30 hours do I feel like I needed more? The story is masterfully crafted with very precisely calculated time jumps. 6 YEARs! That's how long it took them to make this game. 6 years! And I can't believe the sheer amount of hate it's received in only 48 hours since it's release, simply because it dared to do something different. So screw all of you who review bombed this game, because honestly, I absolutely loved the game from the start to finish. It doesn't affect the gameplay one bit that they're LGBTQ+ characters, so why should you care? I understand the toxic gaming community is butthurt about certain characters being killed off, but what did you expect was going to happen? That's it, I'm done. **** gamers and their overinflated egos. Expand

    I have been looking forward to this game for years and am not disappointed with the final result. It has vastly improved and expanded on the first game, whilst also maintaining that 'The Last of Us' feel.

    I think this game is superb!

Lo mejor en gráficos de ps4, una jugabilidad increíble, una historia dura, cruel, triste, pero buenísima, en lo único que puedo criticar del juego es que este nos obligaba a golpear con abby a ellie y pues eso dolía porque ellie es nuestro personaje principal y al que queremos, dolía cada golpe que le dábamos con abby ya que esta casi la mata . Y en cuanto al final, lo encontré muy bueno pero no me lo esperaba, aprendimos una lección importante gracias a joel aprendimos que no hay que hacer que la venganza nos consuma, si es verdad matamos a todos los amigos de abby pero nos arrepentimos, y así finamente ellie encuentra a la paz que necesitaba. La escena final me dejó con mucha intriga, fue muy duro, revelador, triste, pero me da mas ganas para jugar una próxima entrega. 100% recomendado de jugar Expand

Durante il gioco vengono affrontati numerosi temi che divideranno i giocatori, temi scottanti, e ci porteranno a pensare e ad aprire in noi un conflitto interiore, ma il tutto è solo una parte del gioco... Tecnicamente è l'apoteosi della magnificenza, realizzazione tecnica stupenda, stabile, grafica superlativa, suoni e musiche da premio Oscar. Non comprendo le. Critiche da stadio e stupide che vengono offerte a questo capolavoro, non giocare a TLOU 2 è un delitto per un videogame, imperdibile, una produzione epocale che rimarrà nell'olimpo dei giochi più belli di questa generazione, tra PS4 e XBOX One, e degli ultimi 20 anni, siamo qui al di sopra di b super blasonate e sopravvalutato opere, seppur bellissime, come the legend of zelda, ebbene si, The Last of Us part 2 è superiore in tutto, tecnica e storia, al capolavoro Nintendo, quindi videogame acquistate lo a tutti i costi e godetevela, pian piano, giocarlo tutto! Per me questo titolo è "condannato" a diventare gioco dell'anno 2020 (game of the year 2020)!

    I rushed through Abby's part as quickly as I could. I ended up saying things like "Okay I can see what Neil Druckmann tried here but it didn't work for me. The story was okay but I was disappointed with the choices they did in the narrative structure, but the rest of the game is a masterpiece".

    I went into my second playthrough with the objective to be... objective! and approach the whole Abby scenario with open-mindedness! And it worked. I started liking Abby and I started to empathize with her story. I finished the game with a much more satisfying feeling towards the story and its characters.

    The 3rd playthrough only strengthened that feeling and it came to a point where I wasn't so sure anymore if I enjoyed Ellie's or Abby's story more. The conflicts between Ellie and Abby just left me speechless. I like both characters, I understand the reasoning behind their doings. I empathize with them. I don't want either to die. It certainly would have been a gruesome finisher if Ellie really would have killed Abby in the end. But I think the choice the narrative directors did here was absolutely fine. The tiny problem that I have here is that I don't know if it was entirely realistic for Ellie to not kill Abby. You see, from a player's point of view it is by far the most reasonable decision to make. We understand both POVs and we know what they both went through. It was a cycle of hatred of two people that lost everything. The problem here is that Ellie doesn't know really know what Abby has gone through so I don't know if it was entirely realistic for her to stop the killing even when it was all she could think of for months. What an incredibly hard decision to make for the narrative directors. I respect the decision to leave Abby alive at the end. It was the more satisfying ending and maybe it isn't all too far-fetched that Ellie stopped the killing when she saw how Abby was tormented and at the same time thinking about Joel and the fact that Abby let her live not only once but twice. Maybe it really was the more realistic choice.

    I also feel like the side cast of this game is pretty underrated. A lot of people call characters like Owen and Jesse trash just because they don't play a MAJOR role in the game. I feel like these characters perfectly tied into the entire story. They may not have been the most influential on the story but the way they came and went tied in so well.

    I just wanted to get that off of my chest and say that this game is a masterpiece. The story is still not close to the first part but it is a damn good story for sure. And like I said before. Gameplay, graphics, soundtrack, animation work, details, world-building, etc are a masterpiece.

    I challenge people that disliked the narrative or disliked Abby after the first playthrough to leave the game alone for a few weeks/months and come back with a more objective attitude. Now that you know how the story plays out, you won't be surprised and caught off guard by the unorthodox story structure. I promise you won't regret it.

    Thank you Naughty Dog for being a masterclass game developing studio.

    I can't understand why this game getting so much hate. The game can't get a rating under 5/10 cause alone the gameplay, grafik and performance push it minimum to 5/10 even if the story is bad (i like the Story and i feel what they want to tell us about brutality). Everything under 5/10 is just hating

    Ein grandioser Anschluss an die emotional mitreißende Geschichte des ersten Teils.
    Es Spielt sich genauso und trotzdem der Charakter umbesetztung hat es dasselbe Feeling.
    Dieses drückende Gefühl wenn man durch Joels ausgeht,und man das Bild von seiner Tochter sieht unbeschreiblich also spielt es selberals euch von der metacritik abschrecken zu lassen.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. No entiendo porqué tanto revuelo para el juego.
    El juego es de lo mejor hecho para PS4, sólo porque hayan matado a Joel temprano, no significa que ya nada del juego sirve, el juego está impecable en todo sentido, la historia es muy buena y jugable, por más que la quieran destrozar. Sí tengo que decidir entre la narrativa del 1 y este, me quedo con el 1. Pero eso no le quita mérito, esta historia está muy al nivel de cualquier otra. Además cualquier apartado del juego destaca brillantemente, empezando por los enormes gráficos, que están pulidos a más no poder; la banda sonora, que en otra entrega más vuelve a sorprender; la jugabilidad que si bien, es muy parecida a la anterior, es mucho más fluida, inmersiva y intuitiva, creo que mejorar más de lo que ya era, era extremadamente complejo, y lo lograron, tal vez, no en la mejor medida, pero esto convence y mucho.

    Obviamente la flaqueza del juego es su guión... Personalmente me dolió la despedida de Joel tan cruel, y muy injusta, como para el personaje que era en la saga, pero que sí te pones a pensar, no era algo de extrañar, principalmente por todos los enemigos que hizo en la primera entrega debido a su brutalidad....

    Y bueno... El final es otro punto que no tocaré ya que sé que muchos no han jugado el juego.

    Personalmente pienso que sí no has jugado el juego, o simplemente te han dicho que es malo, por esto y por lo otro, no lo critiques, cuando lo hayas jugado y hayas tú mismo sentido la experiencia te darás cuenta que el juego es una joya.

    Story: I am emotional. Graphics: phenomenal. Ice at the edge of a lake crunches and breaks, the detail in the environment and cut scenes is amazing. Characters: the relationships between Ellie and Joel, and Ellie and Dina are wonderful. If you dont like it, your opinion is valid. But it doesn't deserve to be a bad game.

    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]
