    Запредельный уровень графики и проработки локаций и персонажей. Взрослый, серьезный сюжет на который стоит равняться всем разработчикам сюжетных игр.

    Constantly switching between the tenderness of the past and the brutality of this new quest for revenge, The Last of Us 2 brings more immersive gameplay to a game that is, from now on, a new example to follow concerning mature adventure/action mature games.

In fact, I don't think most people using that term to describe this game know what it means.

    It's undeniable that this game is visually stunning and has vastly superior gameplay to TLOU 1. The combat is fun and there's a nice and diverse set of weapons to use. I also really appreciate all of the customization tools. You can customize difficulty in really specific and unique ways, you have the option to replay specific chapters or even encounters, and there are a ton of ways to customize accessibility.

    While I don't think TLOU 2 is quite on the same level as God of War (2018), I think it's just a notch below, maybe on par with HZD. It doesn't deserve 1/100th of the hate it's gotten, and will likely be seen as a tremendous accomplishment in a few years once all the controversy dies down.

    And to the people losing their minds over this game, just...play something else. Nothing good comes out of blind rage, which, ironically, is the central theme of TLOU 2.    … Expand

    The Last of Us Part II's potential shortcomings in story decisions, pacing, and character choices are all, first and foremost, subjective, and are heavily overshadowed by the immense graphical beauty, narrative density, and emotional weight this game brings to the table. In my opinion, the game is nearly flawless

    Шедевральный проект, в плане прорабоотки графики, стрельбы, физики так и в плане сюжета.
    Да есть повестка ЛГБТ, но это не значит, что игру нельзя нормально оценивать в плане сюжета.

    Here I am two weeks after finishing the game and still giving thought to the entire experience. The story and depth of the characters is nuanced, gritty and emotionally poignant. The fact that so many are angry is a testament to how beloved the characters are. Thematically the equivalent of 'No Country for Old Men' for the gaming industry. People will be talking about this one for years.

There was some clunkiness i experienced when interacting with objects, but otherwise this gameplay was phenomenal.
    The story was compelling and challenging. I have seen many people argue that this was the weakest element of the game, but I would disagree. I do not agree that people “acted out of character” or that there were pacing issues. I genuinely appreciated the direction and end result.
    Graphics... no comments needed. All in all, I loved the game. Wonderful experience!    … Expand

It's okay to not think this game is a masterpiece, and to have problems with some aspects of the story, but anyone raving about how it's a disgrace to the characters and the world of the first game etc can honestly just f*** right off. If they'd understood the message and themes of the first game, then they would realise that TLOU II shows the consequences of decisions made by character's in the first game, absolutely true to the world ND created. To claim otherwise is just wrong.

    For me, this game is a 10, but it took me a while to come to that conclusion. I had to take a week away from video games after I finished the story. Not intentionally, but I just didn't have the heart to play anything else. This game was extremely difficult to play at times. But it's also the most fully formed and outrageously effective attempt at an immersive, narrative-driven video game that I've ever seen. Its absolutely outstanding.

    After the first couple of hours I was so invested in what was happening, why it was happening and where the story would go that I just sort of melted into the world and the story that ND are telling. It's hard to discuss any story and/or character moments without going into spoilers, but sufficed to say it's Naughty Dog's biggest and most ambitious game yet. It's probably also the most challenging game I've ever played.

    There are more than a few moments where I DID NOT want any part of what was happening on screen, and that's because this game does not shy away from showing you some really **** up **** Like, truly haunting, harrowing **** Animal lovers in particular beware. I'm the sort of guy that cries anytime a dog gets hurt or dies in a movie. **** I cry whenever dogs are happy, like those videos where their owner returns from overseas and they can't handle their excitement and joy. There there are moments where I felt sick with guilt while playing through Ellie's story.

    The violence is never gratuitous however, at least not in my opinion. It's raw and graphic and feels extremely real, but ultimately this game is a discussion about violence, obsession, and about revenge. It asks you as the player to think about how far you would go for revenge? How far is too far? Is revenge justified when it's born out of love for someone, to want to get payback for them? It shows the fallout of actions made when people let violence and anger envelop them. And it shows them in graphic detail. But it's also a story about love, grief, acceptance, and change. I genuinely believe it to be a much deeper story than some give it credit for. Again, tough to say more without spoilers. I'll leave it by saying that ND did the impossible with regard to the story they chose to tell. And I am so thankful that they did.    … Expand

    The game hit so many emotional high points. Pacing felt like a roller coaster, with tense highs and dramatic lows. I both loved & hated almost every character. The game was incredible and I just wish I could play more of it. As a huge fan of the first story, I was immediately consumed by this one. It absolutely delivered.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last Part II didn’t go the way I expected. You might even say that the story was a gut punch. That being said, I loved it from start to finish nonetheless. I was a big fan of the first game, and despite the change in direction for Part II, nothing felt out of place for me. Jumping into the world of TLOU felt good after all those years, and it felt familiar. Then, BAM!, we’re faced with tragedy: Joel’s brutal death at the hands of Abby. “Who is this girl, anyway?” I was quite upset. Much like Ellie, I wanted revenge; I bought in. On a three day quest through the ruins of Seattle, I felt angry, and I could not wait to find Abby and get revenge. After all, Joel’s death couldn’t go unpunished. Then, in another unexpected turn of events, I’m forced to live the same three days as my dreaded enemy: Abby. At first, I wasn’t pleased with this turn of events, but I ended feeling for Abby at the end of this three day journey. Joel’s death was hard to stomach, but The Last of Us was never about heroes and villains, and I am okay with that. The sorry wasn’t what I expected; it wasn’t even really what I wanted at first, but it turned out to be better. For me, it’s 10/10. As far as the gameplay is concerned, it’s an improvement in just about every way when comparing the game to its predecessor. Much like Uncharted 4 learned from The Last of Us, Part II learned from U4. I also really liked that playing as the Ellie felt different from playing as Abby. In fact, I like that every character I’ve played as in the world has felt different. Another 10/10 for me in that category. To each their own.… 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]
