    The last of us should've never had a sequel, they just ruined the reputation of the original game.

    Huge disappointment. Horrible writing in this game. Hard to believe that a big studio like Sony would disrespect their customers like this by releasing **** like this.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. this is my genuine opinion about the game
    this game unfortunately is a big disappointment after 7 years of waiting part 2 was released to a franchise that didn't need a sequal however this cash grab was a giagantic failure because of these reasons:
    cons:

    1. character introduction they added like 20 new characters gave you no back story on most of them you have no attachments to them and they feel like throw away people used to show how quickly and dry people can die like Jessy dies randomly for no reason but to shock you however you have no attachment to him so his death is meaningless this also shows with dina as she is just there sometimes while exploring bringing up random stuff like how her sister took her too a church and then goes on about the holocaust when no one brings it up

    2.every male character is belittled as a psycho or killed leaving only tommy left bearly alive. not to mention that abby is built like a bulking lower end body builder and is completely unrealistic as a 7 year male lifter is bearly bigger than her and she managed to get that big in 4 years unless she was taking a crazy amount of estrogen blockers but even then she would only be on the same level of a man and would at least take 14 years to get to that level not to mention the proper nutrition that she is probably not getting considering yunno its the APOCALYPSE!!! the male characters are instantly misdemeanour'd as soon as this journey begins when the 'bigot sandwich' is delivered this just show the demographic is rousty teens and she don't need no man kinda people and the male cucks that go along with it and it is always cringey when big company's try to act progressive

    3. the order of events is messed up they should have explained why abby wanted to kill joel instead telling it way after this would have contrasted emotions

    4. they should've killed joel appropriately and for reference it should have been that farther figure death like in the walking dead games where lee dies protecting clem and you can choose whether to kill him or let him turn not some heman jacked up on an incredible amount of steroids killing him slowly with a golf club

    5.the game-play is just a RTX version of the last of us remaster and doesn't look any better than just red dead redemption 2 with better level design

    6.ending is dogcrap and whoever came up with that should have been executed immediately the writers are literally retarded hire some professional writers if u don't know how an ending works

    pros:

    1.good music

    2. one flash back of ellie's birthday with joel (depicts well the first game and is so good and should have developed on it with the progression of joel lost his daughter then finds what he lost with ellie and that is what make the game good in the first place)

    3.the 2 characters lev and Yara were the only well developed characters in the whole game

    4.looks good however not as good as some games however keeps to the standed of 2020 graphics

    conclusion: waste of $60 and the person who leaked this game is a god who saved a lot of people money not including me as i wanted to be unbiased and hadn't seen them and the game journalists are just saying it is good because how well received the first game was and was considered the best game ever made therefore they didn't want to go against the mob they thought would be therefore they were dishonest to cater to the accomplishments of the game before.

    therefore to me this is not cannon and i will remember the first game and try to forget this nightmare    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Horrible game. The creators of this game has shown exactly how much they respect the first game. They took a massive character trait, Joel not trusting anyone, and just said “Ehhhhh. He’d trust these teenagers he just met a second ago with no second questions.” Also his death scene is literally just torture porn and shock value which was a disappointing send off for a main character. And naughty dog is full of hypocrites who will **** and moan about “realistic proportions in female body types” but then go and make their ‘main character’ the size of a linebacker with the body type to match. Physically impossible for a girl in a post apocalyptic world to build that much muscle mass, let alone find the time and nutrients to maintain it. I’m literally infuriated that I avoided the leaks, I would’ve had better entertainment if I had just burned the money in front of myself. Good graphics tho, really saw the blood splatter on the golf club… Expand

    Por que? simplemente... Por que ?
    Por que tenían que guiar al juego por la senda política ?
    Pudieron haber hecho una magnifica historia con Ellie y Joel como en el juego anterior
    pero simplemente fueron por lo seguro

    The only reason I give this a 2 rather than a 1 is to at least credit the talented programmers, artists, QA testers, and actors who worked on this game.

    This game looks amazing, I am actually stunned that a game could look this good on ps4 hardware. On the surface it plays very well, I am constantly surprised by the lighting, physics and the little touches in the environment and such.

It is infuriating that they are trying to push an agenda into this game as well, like they are trying SO HARD.

    It's enough, I genuinely feel like I wasted my money and I am genuinely sorry for the devs who spent years to make such a good looking game just to fall more than flat, to fail miserably. The game plays amazing but if you don't want to play a game because of its story, it's not a good game.

If you are looking for a rational or realistic review, i recommend staying away from google reviews and these reviews. The majority of the reviews are 0/10 review bomb spam, or reviews that are clearly homophobic and hateful. On top of that, many scores rated as negative (4 and under) with descriptions depicting what would qualify as a mixed score (5-7), which shows a lack of understanding of how to rate products. Fallout 76, a buggy and incomplete game only scored .5 lower than this game on user reviews, which again shows that this games user reviews are not to be trusted. Anyone reading who thinks the troll or review bombs are helpful, just remember, the developers are going to ignore and pass over reviews with the intent to troll, so if you think that review bombing will actually sway the developers to your side, it won't. In all, it is very embarrassing that the community reacts with review bombing and hateful reviews, especially when 21,000 people claim to have played and been competent enough to review a game released 24 hours ago. Metacritic is also intended for people looking to buy a game with little knowledge surrounding the game before purchase, so mainly causal players, so political rant reviews and troll reviews serve no use or purpose to people looking to actually buy the game, as most people care very little about the "politics" of a games story. Metacrtitc should look to add a purchase verification feature or play time counter or playtime cap in order to stop review bombs from ever happening again.… 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]
