    I can understand why people are upset. The story is not the one they wanted, but rather the one it had to be. Everyone is complaining about characters' choices, as a player. But they are good choices as themselves…
    Maybe this game is not as good as the first one, maybe it is. I truly think we need time to process the game to know. But it still is a very good game with incredible audio,

    Very reminiscent of dark south korean films. A harrowing thought-provoking masterpiece. You just have to understand the story and take it in deep.

    Uma obra-prima dos videogames. Com gráficos lindos, jogabilidade divertida e uma história de tirar o fôlego. The Last Of Us 2 é muito mais que um jogo de vingança, é um jogo sobre consequências. Não há certo ou errado no contexto da narrativa, e o modo que eles fizeram isso foi o que surpreendeu

    This game is a masterpiece. Everyone is hating without playing it. The story is 10/10. Not all endings are happy endings. In my opinion is one of the best games I've ever played.

    - All these reviews saying this game is not worth it because they don't like the plot is pathetic. Writers can write whatever they want and this is nowhere near next to GoT S8. I didn't come in with any spoilers, so I wasn't sure why she was seeking vengeance at all. I was worried the whole town was going to be overrun like too many times in The Walking Dead. People are saying Joel would never have walked into an ambush, but it wasn't planned besides by Abby on the fly, so the group wasn't being suspicious besides her psychotic self. It was legit just one woman on her own running from zombies- yeah she is crazy buff, but that was a huge horde- much bigger than we ever had in the first game. It made sense to seek shelter. Now Tommy's invite was dragging it...

    While I still wanted Abby to die in the end, that doesn't make the game not enthralling and overall incredible experience. I was seeing red as much as Ellie and 100% was with her on her murder spree. If you can't see where her character is coming from then, you need to think more about what Joel meant to her and what he did for her. Also, they are in a post-apocalyptic, ultra-violent world- after seeing her father figure die while those people held her down and spit on him- who cares if they let her live(I appreciate it though) they are all going down. I loved all of their flashback scenes and definitely noted how they never said I love you. They expressed it differently. Imagine how terrifying it is that the people you love the most can be killed at any moment and humanity is barely surviving. We are honestly too privileged even as people with enough physical and financial stability to have gaming consoles (think Yemen rn) to fathom those psychological effects.

    I hated playing as Abby hunting Ellie, but I think that's what they were going for. It would've killed me if they made you play the killer of Joel while she killed Ellie- that's too much. I think perhaps the plot would've made more sense to everyone if Joel was kidnapped and Ellie had to save him. That's not perfect, but some of the major gripes could be ameliorated. Killing anyone necessary to get to Joel vs killing anyone necessary to get to his killer and then not kill her? If Joel died around the time when they switched to Abby, then we could've fit in that vengeance thread much better. We didn't need Abby's perspective to make this work, we needed to really expand on Ellie. Showing the WLF and Seraphite camps were appreciated, but Ellie could've been the one on the Island and the WLF part could've been much shorter.

    So I missed Ellie for hours and hours, but that doesn't mean the gameplay wasn't topnotch throughout. Anyone complaining about it needs to seriously think if they are comparing this game to imaginary ones in their heads. I don't know of a game that made me feel more in it. It's weighted, emotional and tense. There are various ways to engage with the different enemies and if you don't want to deal with them then you can see if you can just sprint out of there. I did that a few times with the stalkers for sure... I would also want more objects to be able to fall over or moved so the npcs can be lured or find you easier.

    While I don't love the story of this game, it is still 100% worth playing and I'll definitely play it again. While I am excited to play again, it is so dark and energetically draining(in a good way), I'm going to need a few weeks break. I'm rating it 10 to counteract the hate, but I would say the story brings it down to a 8/10 because I really just wanted more Ellie. Abby's only saving grace was because Lev stopped her, she hadn't learned anything since she killed Joel. Her saving what she called "Scars" was her redeeming herself for killing the Seraphites for years, it had nothing to do with Joel. She never felt what she did was wrong, she was only told it was. I wanted Dina to live, but if Abby killed her (wow that would've been so sad for Ellie) her Santa Barbara journey would've worked more. As much as I liked Lev, he's the reason his sister lost her arm then her life (two separate choices), so if I had a choice as Ellie, I would've killed Abby and then that kid to end the cycle right there... y'all both free from this zombie hell now, you welcome. Vengeance sought.

    This game is a masterpiece. I like that the game has new open World parts and is so big. The Gameplay is so smooth. I saw some Bugs but they are not the big Deal. If you like survival + Zombies and a good story than fcking play the last of us 1 + 2.

    Amazing game and story! But most people are not ready for this discussion. Sad so many people gave it a low rating just because they did not like the story. The technical parts by itself should make at lease a 6.

    Best game I have played in a while. Don't believe the negative hype. This is a beautifully tragic story that stays faithful to the feel of the first game. Just because you get sad doesn't make it a bad game - that is the intention. There is no political agenda in this game.

    I have just completed the game. Never felt compelled to write a review on here before but I wanted to when I saw some of the genuinely confusing low reviews. Lots of people saying the game is visually amazing, great gameplay but they don't like the story and giving the game a zero? Bizarre!
    This was easily one of the best games I have ever played in my nearly 4 decades of gaming.

    Can't say I would have made this game this way, but kudo to all of Naughty dogs team for putting together the game and story they wanted to tell.
    It was an emotional rollercoaster, even a tear jerker at times. I can't say that I'm not left with the desire to know more of this story, but I can say they produced again one of the most quality games I've ever played, again! Thank you

I can see why people feel betrayed however this game is in my opinion the game of the generation a title formerly held by God Of War Please if you love the last of us part 1 play this 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]
