    Un gameplay stupendo ma contornato da una storia e delle idee così stupide e pesantemente politiche che nonostante il gameplay non posso consigliarlo.

    La critica ne parlerà sempre bene, molti youtubers pure, perché ricevono le copie, i press kit, gli inviti alle anteprime e altro, quindi vanno in conflitto di interessi e non possono essere sinceri, si, anche lo youtuber x che ti sta tanto simpatico e di cui ti fidi, anche lui!
    Il primo aveva una storia bellissima, le pecche stavano nella ripetitività del gameplay e di alcune situazioni, qui invece abbiamo un gameplay bello, seppur ripetitivo, ma mannaggia che stupido il resto e che personaggi odiosi.
    Una storia di vendetta in cui ammazzi tutti tranne chi se lo merita, e dovremmo empatizzare con la protagonista.
    Molto meglio la seconda protagonista per coerenza, peccato che anche la sua parte sarà brutta narrativamente perché in compagnia di 2 personaggi orribili di cui uno politicamente corretto.
    Delusione totale.    … Expand

    I just played it from beginning to end, and conclusion: stop making "games" full of forced modern ideologies and go back to making "Video Games".

    meglio del primo in ogni suo aspetto, non capisco perché un voto così basso dagli utenti. molto probabilmente saranno gli utenti Xbox e PC che rosicano come i bambini 6 anni

    Игра вызвала у меня очень много эмоций, у меня много раз были мурашки по коже, даже сейчас когда я вспоминаю об этой игре. одна из моих любимых игр.
    Сюжет очень интересный, не хуже чем в первой части, мир интересно исследовать, записки, левлдизайн, атмосфера умершего мир, всё на высшем уровне, графика на моей слимке выглядит невероятно, безумно красивый саудтрек.

    геймплей тоже очень затягивает. стребля, стелс, простые головоломки, диалоги персонажей.
    нравиться как в этой игры прописаны персонажи, у них есть характер, они развиваться и за ними действительно интересно наблюдать.
    есть я так доволен игрой, тогда почему всего 8 баллов?
    как сильно я обожаю эту игру, так же сильно и ненавижу...
    вторая половина игры за эбби, это ужас.
    её мотивы мне не понятны, она выглядит как танк, мне не жаль этого персонажа, у меня нет никакого сопереживания к нему, она просто ужасна.
    к тому же, после того что она сделала, играть за неё буквально не хочется, омерзительная женщина.
    но финал игры опять даёт кучу эмоций, на которых ты уже и строишь у себя в голове вывод о том какая это игры.
    в чём сюжет собственно?
    СПОЙЛЕРЫ!
    джоэл убил отца эбби задолго до событий второй части, чтобы спасти свою дочь в виде элли, потому что под конец первой части игры, он любил её как собственную дочь, заменив сару в лице элли.
    после чего эбби начинает искать человека который убил её отца, собирает команду людей, которые хотели отомстить, отобрав жизнь у джоэла.
    они таки свершили месть на глазах у элли, после чего уже элли готовит свой план мести этим людям.
    идя по их головам по голову эбби. после чего она решает встать на путь истинный, когда эбби даёт ей шанс, понимаю во что это может перерасти. в конце концов месть забирает у элли всё и она остаётся совсем одна.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The plot is insaine. The game forces you to kill dogs and pregnant women just to let you hate Ellie. Also it forces you to control a character that you don't like. This game is all about the story and it screwed it up. Won't buy any game from naughty dog until neil quits.… Expand

    One word, MASTERPIECE.
    I can understand that for somebody it may be a masterpiece and others not, but there is no such thing as this game has 5.7 by users, a game that deserves a rating between 9.5 and 10.
    Maybe, MAYBE, the only "negative point" is longevity, for somebody the story may seem a bit elongated, but not for everyone.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A continuação do jogo tem falhas constantes na iluminação simples, demonstra constante serrilhados. Toda a história construída para Ellie e Joel foram abandonadas, sendo o inteligente senhor que não confia nem na própria sombra para um bobalhão e morreu de forma alheia por um erro que jamais cometeria no primeiro jogo. O jogo não é focado nos zumbis e muito menos numa gameplay, as bossfights do primeiro jogo NÃO EXISTEM na sequência, uma mecânica de tiro qualquer, nada de grande. O jogo escancaradamente segue uma óbvia pauta, obviamente, não se deve proibir os desenvolvedores de colocarem pautas atuais, só que é vergonhoso ver a história e cutscenes perdendo muita qualidade por conta de alienação ideológica. Os momentos de tensão, na sua grande maioria de vezes, é desnecessário e não inclui no desenvolvimento dos personagens ou da própria Ellie, como a morte daquela cão que a atacou depois que ela caiu da ventilação. A piada vergonhosa do sanduíche e o "Oi, eu sou o Joel, esse aqui é meu irmão Tommy" mostram como o jogo se tornou, de um clichê com um amado protagonista e uma promissora lore, para um jogo que não foca nos zumbis e apenas num relacionamento estereotipado pela mídia mainstream e pautas idiotas que acham que podem interferir nas vidas de todos… Expand

    The Last of Us part 2 is pure trash, it's a story about getting revenge against the new character Abby for killing Joel and guess what it's a revenge story with no pay off in the end. Abby gets away because revenge bad and Ellie is to weak to carry it out. For a game that acts like it's a perfect master piece it sure doesn't feel like it more like The Last of Us is an overrated pile of pig S@^&.

    This game is the next step in video game story telling. No other game has invited the player to think about the meaing of its story like this one did. Its not a flawless game but its in my eyes a masterpiece.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's hard to recall a game that made me as emotionally invested as the last of us 2. It's all down to a narrative that can only find it's true footing in video games, as it's predecessor the plot drives the story forward but it twists it's ending via character development.

    There are a few things I can safely say before spoiling any of the story so I will just point out a few characteristics of the game:

    Naughty Dog has improved once again on it's combat mechanics, the fight and flight approach has been enhanced and it's at the core of the last of us 2 gameplay. It gives you many tools to accomplish your goals and in doing so offers players many ways to approach combat. If you enjoyed the combat in games like Uncharted 4 and The Last of Us, the combat here will feel even fresher and better.

    I don't care so much about graphics, but this game is impressive in it's presentation. It pushes PS4 to it's limit and delivers environments filled with details bringing a sense of immersion to the player. The cutscenes are impressive and they help hammer the narrative home.

    SPOILERS FROM HERE ONWARDS

    It's impossible to speak about the story without going into spoiler territory so here it goes: From the beginning of the journey you find yourself in a revenge story, one of our favourite characters in gaming history, Joel, is killed by Abby a freshly introduced character that we briefly get to play. The game then sets you and Abby down an intersecting path, where you are pitted against each other for revenge. When you finally find her the game takes a huge break to set you in the shoes of Abby, we play as her for a long time and we start to understand her a little by little.

    Thanks to the unique ways that games can tell stories, we slowly see how Abby herself starts to grow on us, we see that much like Joel she is jaded and going through the motions after experiencing grief. Through saving a couple of scars we see her humanity and start to strongly empathize with her as a character.

    I initially doubted this was going to work for me, at first I felt so much rage playing through Ellie's story, but when I was in Abby's shoes she started to slowly grow on me, from saving Lev and Yara, seeing her relationship with her dad, going to an infected zone to secure medical supplies, beating a huge monstrosity; I finally understood better the side of her story.

    At the end I didn't want Ellie or Abby to die and I wanted each one to have a good life. I felt I went through a lot emotionally and it's all thanks to an ambitious narrative that pays off.

    To some of the criticism that I've seen:

    LGBTQ+ agenda: I don't think there is a political stand on this, the game is just portraying sexuality how it is. To anyone complaining that LGBT characters are only present in the sequel, I have to remind them of Bill who is clearly gay in part 1 and the DLC also shows Ellie's story and she's always been into girls.

    Narrative: I understand those who feel like Joel death was too much, I think that is the reason that the game set you emotionally on the same revenge path as Ellie and it worked incredibly well for me. Joel death is caused by his past actions, not only killing the doc and the fireflies but also the fact that he gets softer through the story of the Last of Us, through caring for Ellie, till the point that trusting other people causes him to lose his life.

    The ending worked incredibly well for me, the fact that the plot doesn't finish with Ellie killing Abby is a a great subversion of expectation, we as players don't want to see Abbie die, and it's Joel's memories that stop her. In the end because of the fight with Abby she loses her ability to play guitar, but it's maybe what she needed in order to learn to live with the past. In a weird way it's thanks to Ellie that Abby and Lev end up surviving and we are weirdly thankful for it.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. O que eles fizeram com o legado do primeiro jogo é criminoso. História PÉSSIMA, uma bagunça que é fruto de preguiça e falta de talento. Todo mundo esperando uma continuidade da história de Ellie e Joel e o que recebemos é este asqueroso pedaço de merda. E não tem nada a ver com preconceito com personagens LGBTQIA+ (ainda que a abordagem não pareça nem um pouco natural em um mundo pós-apocalíptico), ou por não aceitar a morte do Joel, mas sim com a maneira porca com que entregaram o jogo. Depois de tanto tempo, eu pensei que eles tinham uma ideia legal para a parte 2, aí aparecem com um plot genérico de vingança, escolhendo um parente de uma das muitas pessoas que Joel matou no primeiro jogo como protagonista? É sério? Além da história podre, o jogo não é toda essa perfeição técnica, não. Existem bugs na gameplay, a mira é MUITO sensível (mesmo ajustando), os clickers parecem te detectar de maneira aleatória, existem seres humanos com ossos largos que recebem flechadas no meio da testa e não morrem, etc. Enfim, uma fétida e grotesca obra da Naughty Dog. Pecaram feio nessa.… 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]
