    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ich fand das Spiel unglaublich toll und bewegend. Ich war von den plötzlichen Momenten der Story fasziniert. Der Anfang des Spiels bot dem Spieler einen leichten Einstieg, die Mitte des Spiels hielt sich etwas jumpscare lastiger. Das Ende war unerwartet und dennoch versteckt sich darin eine Botschaft, welche die wenigsten verstehen. Es geht darum zu verzeihen, und somit ein friedliches Ende zu finden bevor alles zerbricht. Im Spiel haben wir gesehen wie Ellie zu spät verzeihe und dadurch zerbrach ihr privates Leben mit Dina. Allgemein hat das Spiel eine anschauliche Welt mit vielen Möglichkeiten und wegen welche es zu erkunden gilt. Jedes Kapitel der Story hat offene und geschlossene Bereiche. Durch die verschiedensten Ausrüstungstücke ist es möglich nahezu jeden möglichen spielstil zu verwenden. Vom speedeunner bis zur Assassine Expand

    10/10. Game of the year. I don't remember works in which all the plot moves would be justified. Including bold plot moves. Everything in this game is thought through to the last detail, and I sincerely don't understand the misunderstanding of all the negative reviews about the ending. Obviously, "The Last of Us Part 2" is a masterpiece and it will be in the top games of this decade.

    I loved it. A huge upgrade over the first game, with an even more thought provoking story. The non-linear structure of it was odd at first, but it grew on me. The gameplay is tense, fun, and challenging. This is easily the best looking game I’ve played. The characters look photorealistic, helping the incredible performance.

    To some degree a very brave game. Great fighting and stealth mechanics. But the great trick is, the game numbs you as the player with his revenge-violence while still keeping the gameplay/story/progression at top level. You don't want to finish this. Because humans suck at all levels. And you do too.

    Sometimes people just should stop judging the book by its cover and rate things only after they reach the very end. Wasn't the blind anger the trigger for the plot itself?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Reading through all the 0 reviews, I have to say, people are way too sensative. This game is a masterclass in storytelling through video games. The enviroments are breathtakingly well crafted, The motion capture animaiton shines through and the lighting really sets the tone of the game. its clear to see that this game is the trials and tribulations of ellie as a character. A revenge story that has Ellie question her choices and review her loyallity to joel. Using unconventional methods of gameplay to get across that theres not heroes or villans here, just a 19 year old girl struggling to understand. Anyone that says the game panders to the LGBT crowd is, quite frankly, a brain dead moron. I doubt Neil Patrick Harris likes to cave in a german shepards skull with a pickaxe. The only issue i have is that the game kinda plays it self at parts but that adds towards the cinematic experience. I highly reccomend this game for anyone who wants a journey through storytelling in video games. Expand

    The game is not a masterpiece, but not a trash. I put such an assessment because of the fools who did not even play the game, but put low ratings. I liked the game and rate it at 8 points. I would advise you to buy the game despite the low ratings and to feel all this yourself. I feel sorry for the developers of the game. So much labor and time is invested in this project.

I managed to avoid the leaks, but understood that something happens at the middle of the game that pushed people away. When I got to this point /spoiler/ and played as Abby I was pissed. I took a break and pushed throught the first couple of hours with Abby hoping to get back to Ellie soon. After a while I got attached to Abby and her companions. It just clicked. The narrative weaved its way perfectly and delivered an amazing story about the cycle of violence. Give it a chance. Maybe you won't have fun doing it but you will feel extremely powerfull emotions that go way beyond any other video game I've played. Expand

    The wait was well worth it. The game mechanics are just like the first game with some additions to it. The story is phenomenal and gets you invested in it early on. The story is scary, frustrating, happy, exciting, and depressing. You'll feel all sorts of emotions through this game and that's exactly what Naughty Dog wanted, for you to feel the pain of the protagonist. They wanted you to want revenge, to be angry, and the reviews reflect that. They want you to see the grey in things, that not everything is black and white. The decisions made by characters in this game and real decisions any of us can make if pushed to the breaking point of loss and sadness. They made some BOLD moves in the story and I think they're excellent. I cried, it was hard to see this story play out.

    The Last of Us 2 is now my favorite game of all time. I'm now on my third play through and I plan to keep going. The world is huge, the story is long, and there's lots to see along the way. Get this game and be ready to feel all sorts of emotions. It's worth it.

    Hear not those who say it's just about that or that its story goes around gender or sexuality, this game IS NOT ABOUT THAT, although it has this elements as a complement.
    I'd like to say its a true journey of duality, as life, there's no wrong at vision of each side and yet, both are deliberately wrong in some way. You will have a sweet bit at some moments and others not so sweet, but in the end it's all about the development through the journey. just like life, you try to get the best of you and sometimes you misjudge actions, choices, people.
    This is a GREAT closure for the history of Joel and Ellie, individually and both together. Not the one I wanted after all those years waiting, but the one I really should get. The ending that I believe is possible and true to the nature of the game world.

    Nice game, say no to the review bombing. We can see again through the eyes on Ellie what is going on with this 2 part and I am completely hyped.

    The Last Of Us Part II it's more than just a game. Naughty Dog, thank you for the sequel one of the most likely games in my life.
    When I've finished part one I thought: oh, It's so confused. Joel made a too hard choice, but was it a good choice or not? Maybe the Fireflies could make a vaccine and save a lot of people. Yes, in this case, they are a must to kill Ellie. Yes, we love this girl a lot. But it's just one life that can give hope to people be saved.
    Unfortunately, we rarely think about the opposite side. We think: oh, they are bad guys. But are they? Not always.
    Thank, Naughty Dog: you attempted to give people to see another side. And I think it was a great decision.
    P.S. The LGBT line of the story mustn't be something unexpected for the followers of the game. It's a great game!

    DO NOT USE THE PUBLIC RATING.

    It’s just a bunch of virgin homophobes who think they’re being pushed into an agenda because a character happens to be gay (not even a big part of the story).

    The game itself is wonderful. Better than the first, and just a great experience. Trust the Metacritic review.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Like most when I heard about the leaks I was disappointed, but I decided to keep a open mind and purchase the game.Controls take time to get used to, and the pacing is a bit slow at times but the game is well worth playing.
    In my playthrough a question popped in my head-WHAT IS THE PRICE OF VENGEANCE, AND ARE YOU WILLING TO PAY.I’ll start with Abby’s vengeance. In her pursuit of Joel she is faced many times with Owen attempting to build a relationship with Abby, each time Abby turns it down and continues with her “Leads” even though it is clear they still like each other. Eventually this leads to Owen dating Mel and getting her pregnant. Later in a cutscene, Abby and Owen have sex(keep in mind Owen is still with Mel) it was a long time coming. After the affair Owen wants Abby to travel with Mel and him, Owen says he’ll try to make it work, in his love triangle. Mel later reveals to Abby that, she never liked her(probably saw and Abby and Owen close still) Later Abby aids in finding Lev, Owen tried to join Abby, Mel strongly disagrees. Abby knows at this point, that the time for her and Owen has passed. She tells Owen to stay and get his priorities in line, ending any further involvement.
    Abby lost her chance to grow a relationship with the only other person that she cared for. As well as losing her friends. And she also has a change of heart and befriends two seraphites, which leads her to kill her comrades(WLF)

    Ellie’s vengeance leads to her being mentally and visibly shaken by her actions after getting Nora to “talk”. Later she shoots Owen and stabs Mel in the neck, in Owens last moments he informs Ellie that Mel was pregnant. This disturbs Ellie leading to her getting on her knees, breathe heavily, and wrap her arms around her stomach(throw up?pain?) she is snapped out of it by Tommy and is taken back to base, only problem is Ellie left her map, leading Abby to find her. We cut to the future(after Abby beats Ellie and Dina), Ellie is on a farm with Dina and, Dina’s child JJ, just like Dina wanted. Ellie walks around the house with JJ and has a good time, eventually she has to herd the sheep into the barn. While herding you hear winds picking up. Ellie locks the small door that holds sheep, only to find a lamb out. She approaches the lamb resulting in the lamb knocking over a shovel, which triggers Ellie.a flash of Joel’s dying face appears and attempts to get the lamb only for the door to close. You play in a small room with stairs that lead down, she hears Joel calling Ellie for help, Ellie reaches the door but it is locked, she can’t open it and starts yelling. It cuts to reality and Ellie is screaming and the baby is crying(Ellie had JJ in a sling) Dina tried to comfort Ellie. Tommy shows up(you find out he lived) with only one eye and his leg doesn’t work like before(from Abby and Lev) he reveals him and Maria are taking time apart. He came to inform Ellie that a informant saw a muscular woman traveling with a boy with scars in his face. He tried to get Ellie on board. Dina tells Tommy, that they are done with that, Ellie tells Tommy she is sorry. Tommy packs his bag, and tells Ellie,”you said you’d make her pay” angry he leaves and Dina has “parting words” with him. Ellie eventually decides she has to finish it, Dina tries to stop Ellie from leaving, telling her she has a family and that she won’t go through it again. Ellie leaves. Skipping ahead Ellie finds Abby and they fight(real gritty) Elle gains the upper hand, and starts to drown Abby while chilling music plays, the camera pans to Ellie’s face. Bloody and in tears she has a memory of Joel, and decides to let Abby live. She definitely had a revelation, but it’s open to interpretation.

    Ellie returns to the farm to find Dina has left and the house is empty and cold, in contrast to before, it was colorful and warm. She goes up stairs to play guitar, she plays the song Joel sang to her,”if I ever were to lose you, I’d surely lose my self” this hit me, she lost Joel, and lost her self figuratively and literally as she lost her left ring and pinky fingers, leaving her unable to play the guitar properly. Alone and changed, she has a look on her face I can’t describe(see model viewer “Ellie-epilogue”)

    Ellie’s price was her mental state as seen after her encounter with Nora, Owen and Mel, Jessie dying, Tommy losing a eye and ability to walk properly, as well as him and his wife taking a “break”, Ellie’s ability to play guitar, last but not least- Dina leaving.

    It is a different game with a tragic ending, one that is welcome in a market of happily ever afters and fears of telling a story like it due to backlash(like right now)

    I came in with a bit of disappointment but kept a open mind, and left with a amazing experience.Is the price of vengeance worth it? Are you willing to pay? For it not only impacts you, but also others.

    Нил Дракманн сделал то, чего от него никто не ждал, то за что фанаты первой части его будут недолюбливать. В сюжетном плане он сделал эксперимент, который не всякий игрок способен понять. «Хороший антагонист это протагонист собственной истории.»
    TLOU2 – это не просто игра. Это философия. Такие игры выходят один раз в десять лет. Надеюсь, планка игр от Naughty Dog никогда не упадёт.

    Whether one likes the story or not, or generally has an opinion on the LGBT representation, or if it didn't meet their expectations of redefining 'gaming' - this is not a 3.9/10 game. It's a 11 on 10 for me.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Is the most touching game I've ever played, just the way it finishes, gavem the exact same feeling of Ellie, it's a loneliness, sadness, and show us that in the world we have to give importance to the loved ones.
    The most interesting thing, it's because have shown us that every one has a story, and it's funny because when I heard that we would play as Abby I was just furious, but Naughty Dog did this part so good that In fact at the end, I was just rooting for nothing bad happens to either Ellie or Abby, and I really appreciate this hard working in history.
    The graphics are just insane, it's the best graphics of the generation. The gameplay is basically the first's one, the dodge move was a perfect addition, the scenarios was 100/10, every detail is perfect.

    It's without any doubt one of the best experience, and game that I have ever had the opportunity to play 10/10

    Or maybe the 0/10 reviews are from people who haven't actually played the game and have instead somehow taken personal offence to the storyline of an intellectual property they have no ownership over.

    Contrary to the incel/sexist/proudboy signalling 0/10 reviews, this game is actually incredibly well made, both the story and gameplay are riveting and brutal and the voice and mocap acting is second to none.

    If you are someone who judges a book by it's cover, a person by their sexual persuasion, gender or build, or a man by the way they express their feelings this game probably isn't for you, and it's makers don't care if you don't like it, because you're not a good person.

It really made me feel what it would be like to be in the apocalypse and I felt like I was a part of the world. They build on the last of us formula so well and make the game better in every way. Ellie is a great protagonist, the supporting characters are great. The UI is great, the action is fun. The puzzles are great. The cutscenes are amazing. It's a shame we live in a world where people leak information without context and others are review bombing the game for what seems to be no apparent reason. I am so glad I bought it and would do so again. I am definitely planning on a new game plus run through.

    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]
