    Epic experience! Absolute masterpiece. No doubt this is the best game of 2020, maybe of all time.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is one of the greatest of all times. I understand that people may not like it for some obvious reasons but i do not think this game deserves less than 6 points. The storytelling is amazing, we all get mad when a main character dies, but not just for that is a bad game (or movie, book, whatever). Is not the perfect game, the first one is a mile away better but this part 2 is a closure of a beautiful story which is not about revenge, is about forgiveness and care. We think Ellie lost everything, but that´s not true, when she spares Abby’s life she saw Joel, watching her, she remembered all they spent together and that´s not what Joel wanted for her... The night before Joel dies, she told him she wanted to forgive him, so forgiving Abby was kinda her redemption for all she had done (kill Abby’s friends) and that pardon for Joel. Again, is not the perfect game, but it deserves a 10/10 because is the end (maybe?) of one of the top 3 games in the century.… Expand

    Great game, receiving a lot of unfair criticism due to how progressive the game is and some risky (yet courageous) plot direction. Aside from the plot I think it would be hard for anybody to argue with the fact that the gameplay is exceptional and the graphics are very polished. Yes the plot may not go in the direction you want, but it is very well told and also very well thought out.

At times pacing can be a bit slow but when the action begins you forget all about the slower sections. I would recommend this game to anybody who likes great story telling and just flat out good gameplay with excellent level design and breathtaking scenery.… Expand

    This is an amazing game with great storytelling and detailed, realistic characters. It doesn't pull any punches, just like the original, and weaves a compelling and heart-wrenching narrative.

    This game is fantastic simple as that.
    The graphics are awesome, the gameplay is perfect you can feel the way that the NPCs, the story is fantastic in the end you have a reflection of whats the meaning of revenge and what is good or wrong.
    The new characters have his own personality and ways to do things.

    It captures a real post apocalyptic drama. No frills or hero deaths. **** happens and either the trauma decends you to madness or makes you stronger. The quality and details cannot be denied. This is one, or perhaps the best looking game this generation. There is a pacing issue but is negligble. I liked the tense filled gameplay and animation though. People should embrace change more.

Its the most constant and powerful forces out there. Naughty dog could have played it safe with the same character dynamics as part 1, and perhaps continue with Ellie knowing Joel's lie, embark into a new journey and get closer to a cure. But no, the director has the balls to challenge our expectations, which I highly appreciate. Overall, I think the wait for the experience is worth it. It trancends games into movie like storytelling. I hope gamers wont be turned off by its bleak story because I think its an artistic choice and part 3 would be the catharsis on Ellie's character.… Expand

    This game gave people something they were absolutely not expecting, and it is a welcome surprise for a lot of people. Others dislike this game, and personally I can't wrap my head around it, because not a single person I've spoke to can give me a valid reason why they don't like it.

The best I've heard it "How could you kill a main character?" "This game is stupid SJW content." "I hate this trans character." "How can a woman have big muscles?" "Why couldn't I kill the dumb trans muscle lady?"
    People saying there are plot holes haven't even identified a plot hole, it confuses me, and I'm really wanting to hear some valid points without being verbally abused for enjoying something. Just because a game doesn't end with sunshine and rainbows, doesn't make it a **** show of a game. Its not dark for the sake of being dark, its a generally realistic story considering the characters and direction the first game took. It doesn't ruin the first game at all, and the characters are actually true to themselves, people thinking they know the characters better than the writers is kind of absurd. Not to mention the death threats being sent to people at Naughty Dog.

    The graphics, animation, sound and music are some of the best I've seen run on a PS4, and you can tell how much effort was into the game.
    The story tells a tale that is brutal, unpredictable and emotional, the only thing i can really say is to definitely play the game before having an opinion.    … Expand

    Графика крутая, геймплей интересный, добавили довольно много крутых фишек. История просто разрывает душу и сердце и заставляет задуматься о многом. Ни секунды не жалею о потраченных деньгах. Naughty Dog проделали отличную работу.

    Amazing game. It's the generation of self entitlement that review bomb games for not getting the story they think they deserve. The story is Naughty Dogs to do whatever they want with and for us to experience. Play the first one and then this, you will NOT regret it for a second.

    It may seem kinda forced to give anything a 10/10, but, in my opinion, i really can't think of any flaws that this game has. This just my opinion in the moment, it may change with time, but, until now, I've never felt such a great connection with fictional characters and their stories. Congratulations to everybody on the Naughty Dog team!

Jogo incrível... terminei nem conseguia respirar kkk a história e principalmente os personagens transformam nosso espírito, nos trazendo empatia pelo suposta “vilã“ que depois percebemos que a tal “vilã” Sequer existi, pra ela, em sua história, é sua própria heroína. Todos tem seus motivos, todos tem suas ambições, todos tem seus defeitos. Algo em comum, todos são humanos. O jogo reflete a humanidade da forma mais linda possível. Uma obra prima.… Expand

    Unpopular opinion: by the end, Abby's character was *better* than both Joel and Ellie. At least she was attempting to redeem herself despite her rage...

    If half the gamers review bombing this game were a bit more 'Abby' they'd be able to move up out of thier mothers' basements and facilitate a half decent discussion about the game.

    this game is perfect. the story is very complex and very well done.
    I saw many people criticizing the game for having a weak history, but it is not true, you have to understand that this is a history of consequences, which shows that in an apocalyptic world nobody is a hero or a village, but that nobody is right.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Guys...Joel had been living in Jackson for four years when he met Abby... He had softened a little with his new source of hope in his world (Ellie) and their relatively comfortable lifestyle. Abby is a young girl, like Ellie, like Sarah. He let his guard down for a moment because his choices were to trust this young girl (Abby) or deal with a hoard of infected in a blizzard, hours away from home. This game just doesn't taste right to some of you, and I get that, but the storytelling is strong. In my eyes, the game really is a masterpiece all around.… Expand

    This game is beautifull, the lighting, the graphics are really good. The story may seem a bit different, and wil probably shock you. The story shows how awfull it can be to lose someone, and how revenge is not the best way to lose those feelings. It is a really good game, no doubt.

    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]
