    Masterful gameplay and breakthrough character arcs. The characters you love will downward spiral. Does that make it bad? No, it's a hard to watch drama and there is nothing l like it. Very brave story.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well, I don't even know how to start... As a developer myself, i know it's impossible to please everyone, even more in a game like The Last of Us, a huge hit. I saw plenty of people saying that the end of TLoU Part I was "Happier" than it should be, now people are complaining about a character being killed... In my opinion, i think they took the right way doing this, because then we could explore more Ellie, Tommy and all the new characters in some different ways. I really enjoyed playing as Abby, it's good to see both sides of the story, plus, we can see how things we did with Ellie interfered in Abby's story. The saddest part for me wasn't Joel's death, it was when Ellie comes back from Santa Barbara and the Dina is not there anymore, there's nothing left but Ellie's things. I understand that some of you didn't like Joel's death, but the game has a huge story besides that, amazing by the way. If you have a bad review about a game just because of a plot and ignore everything else, including the incredible gameplay and mechanics, you need to grow up and try to be mature.… Expand

    The Last of Us Part II is technically stunning, with some of the best graphics, environments, motion-capture performances, character animations, and set pieces ever constructed for a video game. It builds on and surpasses its predecessor (and the games of the Uncharted series) to an almost absurd degree.

It builds on and surpasses its predecessor (and the games of the Uncharted series) to an almost absurd degree. I can't wait to see what Naughty Dog is able to achieve technically on the PlayStation 5.

    It does all of that while telling a much more nuanced and difficult story than is typical for video games, even in other compelling narrative-driven games.

    The Last of Us Part II doesn't give you the illusion of choice, but it does pull you in and make you complicit in the actions of these characters. When you watch a film, it's possible to maintain a mental distance from the actions characters take. Even for a character you identify or sympathize with you remain a passive observer. You aren't allowed to do that here. You will hate some of the things these characters do, and feel disgusted by their brutality and remorselessness. You will also love the quiet periods in-between and the playful interactions between old friends, and wish those moments could last.

    This is not a game that wants to satisfy you -- it wants to challenge you. Your reward is the time you spend in its magnificently damaged world and the many ways it makes you feel along its path.

    Nothing created is perfect, including this game, but to me it is a masterpiece and I will cherish my relationship with it forever.    … Expand

    O game está maravilhoso, retrata uma história que é desenvolvida com base em fatos emocionais reais, que foram retratados de forma amena no primeiro game. Os gráficos estão impressionantes, junto a toda uma produção super bem feita.

    Amazing. Ignore the negative Nancy's. You're missing out on the best game of its generation if you don't play it.
    The storyline is alot more intelligent than pandering to the fairy tale that people wanted. It's dark, it's emotional, it makes you feel, it makes you question yourself. That ontop of the amazing graphics and gameplay. You simply cannot ask for a better game.

    Personally, I love the unique perspective they give you on all the different characters, and how they show you there is no real good guy-bad guy when it comes to real life situations, people are much more complex than that. I also love how long the game is, all the different variations in gameplay & scenery. 5/5    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In my opinion Joel's death is realistic and it made the story very interesting.

    Playing as Abby was a bit strange in the beginning but in the end I had more fun with her story line than with Ellie's.

    The graphics are just stunning. The sound is amazing. Gameplay is the best I have ever experienced. The game could have been shorter though. In the end I just wanted to know how it ends and I think 5 less hours could have worked as well. But this is the only small negative point that comes to my mind about TLOU 2.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I genuinely don't understand the hate this game is getting. I'm convinced the vast majority of negative reviews come from people who haven't even played the game. Yes, this game does have a couple lgbtq+ characters, but so does the audience playing this game, and Ellie has been gay since the first game. Furthermore, people are mad about how Joel died, but as far as I'm concerned the portion was written well. He was forced into a situation of being around strangers, none of which showed hostility until he gave his name. All in all this game has the best graphics on ps4, some of the best gameplay on ps4, and a truly immersive storyline that forces you to feel emotions and get involved on a deeper level.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pros: Fantastic game. It builds on the world of the first one, with amazing graphics and great story telling. The banter between characters is great, and the highlights in the game almost always involve interactions between them.

    Cons: Occasionally the pacing isn't great, giving you a little too much space to explore which slows down the story a lot. The combat continues to just be OK my opinion, and with stretches of gameplay alone, with no minor character banter, can drag, and doesn't quite live up to the first installment (which was a 9.5 for me). But pretty damn close.

    Overall though, still one of the best story/atmosphere games on this gen of console.

    For those hating: Stop being sexist bigots. I bet if Ellie and Joel traded places at the start, and everything else stayed the same, you all would love the game. Get your heads out of your asses, and grow up.    … Expand

    The game is not bad, it has interesting gameplay. but only if the difficulty is above average.
    The characters are not bad. but with the transgender girl, as for me, they went too far.
    The end is what it should be, but I was hoping Ally would kill Abby.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Amazing art, graphics, scenery, interesting and a bit improved gameplay from the first game but man...what about the story. The story is interesting and great BUT it doesn’t fit the first game not even a single bit. I know they said that they’re taking a different approach with it and that was a big mistake in my opinion. They could of killed Joel in later parts of the game and nobody would complain. Some are giving negative reviews because of LGBTQ+ implemented in the game but that’s just stupid. I personally didn’t care about that but the problem was lack of connection between Ellie and Dina. I enjoyed the game nevertheless, even tho I was hoping for a better story. First game still holds the crown in TLOU franchise.

    The Last of Us Part ll is a great game. Beautifully crafted and with an impeccable and stunning visual design, full of drama and darkness, it takes Ellie's story through darker horizons, a wonderful soundtrack although not as bright as its predecessor, still one of the best games of the generation and in its genre. .

    Perfect by no means but not nearly as bad as the blatant review bombings would make it seem. The game-play only steps things up from the last game, the graphics and world design have improved across the board as well.

    Story is at the front and center of a series like The Last of Us, and well-written stories can be finicky and difficult to create a satisfying follow up for. But a story should at least be experienced in it's entirety before it gets written off as garbage. A lot of people who saw the leak decided to review bomb this game months before release. Actual living people who call themselves game critics or reviewers and have large following said things like "This game is so bad, I'm not even going to play it." when the news about the leak was trending, a sentiment which should be seen as entirely inadequate from the perspective of someone who reviews games for a living. Clearly that sentiment has lasted through to release, and review bombers were in full force within hours of the launch.
    Thing is, while this isn't the story many people had envisioned (whatever that means when you knew nothing about the follow-up plot to begin with), it's not even bad. I do admit it takes awhile to get going, I didn't really like how fast things happened at the beginning, but I also didn't discredit an entire games worth of storytelling based on the first few moments. I really like where the story leaves off, and I like that they've established that Joel and Ellie aren't the Nathan Drake of this series, it's a harsh world they live in and everyone has to bite the dust someday.    … 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.

    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]
