    História muito ruim, gráficos bonitos e um bom gameplay. Mas a história que era um grande ponto do jogo foi destruída nesse aqui.

    After playing through the whole game I can safely say that this is the best game I have ever played, Naughty Dog has crafted another masterpiece. I would recommend this game to anyone and please do not listen to the people who haven’t played the game because there is way more to the game than just one cutscene in the beginning of the game.

Who the heck would want to play as the killer of one of TLOU1's protagonists? Whoever wrote the story for TLOU2 should be fired. I wish I would've known before j bought this game.… Expand

    Это буквально лучшая игра в моей жизни.
    Сюжетные твисты - это вау. В итоге игра за Эдди была даже интереснее, чем за Элли.
    Грустно, что они просто не поговорили. Надеюсь, они с Диной увидятся и смогут наладить отношения Я понимаю все ходы и почему вы сделали именно так. Спасибо, что показываете реальных людей с обычной внешностью. Это было отличное путешествие    Это буквально лучшая игра в моей жизни.

    O gameplay é excelente e a história é perfeita.

    O único ponto negativo é a extensão do jogo, demorei 30h para terminar, achei um pouco longo. Único motivo da nota ter sido 9 ao invés de 10.    … Expand

    You don't have to like it to acknowledge it looks incredible, plays great, and has a complicated, nuanced story. Even if you hated the story, there's no denying this game has pushed video games forward into a era.

    The best games I've played for years for two main reasons.

    Firstly, the story is deep and complex and draws you in, making you feel emotions and develop opinions, only to completely change your mind. The way that the story twists and turns as well as the topics covered, really helps make the story feel real. Secondly, the game mechanics are amazing, and even develop throughout the game.

    Secondly, the game mechanics are amazing, and even develop throughout the game. The way sound echoes in different environments, ice cracks when you walk across it and how snow falls from the trees as you brush past them results in one of the most immersive game experiences I've ever had (I recommend playing with headphones). The puzzle based mechanics are also fantastic, but don't get overused, for example, early in the game they introduce a cable puzzle (with great rope physics), but this is only used a few times, so if doesn't get boring and throughout the game more of these kind of mechanics are introduced.

    I very rarely play games not than one, but I'm already thinking about another playthrough if this excellent game.    … Expand

    A great game. Naughty Dog did a great job! My only complaint is they could have separated the main character archs a little better by switching between Ellie and Abby more often. The story writers brought to light some current events without those current events taking over the story. People who hate the game because of that are just narrow minded individuals. The graphics were great.A great game. Naughty Dog did a great job!

The graphics were great. There were a few hiccups, but rarely is a game perfect on release day. The companion mechanics could have been more fleshed out but it's alright, not game breaking. In conclusion, I loved the game. They kept Ellie true to who her character is, and introduced a new character that I would love to see more of in future installments. Keep up the great work Naughty Dog!!!… Expand

    After almost a month dedicated to this game, I finished and 100% TLOU2. Took me about 40 hours to platinum the game. Here are some thoughts:

    Pros: +World building +Music score +Animation +Level design +Lighting effects +Impressive accessibility options (even if I won't need them) +Attention to detail (is full of things most won't notice) +A technical achievement. Cons:    After almost a month dedicated to this game, I finished and 100% TLOU2. Took me about 40 hours to platinum the game. Here are some thoughts:

    +Attention to detail (is full of things most won't notice)
    +A technical achievement.

    Cons:
    -Although I don't have a problem with Abby she didn't click on me, in a game like this it is all about the engagement of the player with the characters.
    -Abby/Lev's story didn't feel as powerful and meaningful as Joel/Ellie's.
    -Game dragged in the 2nd half, felt too long.

    TLOU2 has it's own identity. I'm glad it happened, but also see some flaws when they decided to come back to a story that was perfect. The reception probably would be better if they moved away from Joel and Ellie's story. Even if I didn't like some things, the game is incredible.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I played the first chapter in 2015. I bought this one on day 1. The game is truly unique in gameplay, graphics, lightning and story, and it's a pinnacle of this generation of consoles. I was waiting for this game A LOT and my expectations were very high (I bought the PS3 because of the original The Last of Us). Nonetheless, the game met my expectations. The only major problem that the game has is, in my opinion, HOW the story is told, and I mean the order and the pacing through which the game and the story present themselves. Sometimes, the tension and the pacing just drop down, interrupting a climax (for example when we switch from Ellie's point of view to Abby's). Moreover, I think that presenting both Abby's and Ellie's story chronologically by alternating and rotating between their points of views on a daily basis would have brought a greater experience and a deeper attachments to Abby's friends. Instead, in the way the game is presented, it's really hard to get attached to characters like Owen, for example, because we already know that Ellie is going to kill him in a few days. Apart from the pacing and the order the game is told, the game is a masterpiece and went for something completely different from the previous chapter, something that didn't please many users. I won't say what this game excels in, because we all already know. Oh, and I played the game twice and playing through Ellie's part the second time makes you understand better a lot of things, like for example, when WLF members are talking about searching for someone who escaped (which we know is Abby only after switching to Abby's part), or when WLF members talk about a sniper killing all their men (we know that sniper is Tommy only when we switch to Abby's part). This is another outcome of their narrative choice of telling first Ellie's point and view and THEN Abby's one.… Expand

Предзаказал, почитал отзывы, хотел рефанднуть - не вышло (игра уже скачана), с той поры окончательно решил никогда не брать предзаказы. Уж не знаю, почему Neil **** решил, что он - невлупенный режиссер, скорее всего так считает его мама, но в реальности это немного не так. Сценарий лучше бы написал даже второкурсник тверского кинематографического училища, ну, нельзя так бездарно распорядиться Джоелом. Дыри в сюжете размером с Техас, персонажи убоги и тупы, их действия нелогичны и глупы. Игра затянута по ощущениям часов на 12 (я, тыкаясь во все углы, прошел за 27). Были парочка реально классных моментов, чего стоит только исполнение Элли песни «take on me”. Игра и так то блистала всеми цветами радуги, если вы понимаете, о чем я, но появление трансгендера ближе к концу игры... признаюсь, маляты, папочка был не готов. Из плюсов: графен и пара отличных эпизодов. Красная цена рублей 800-1000. Брать по заявленой цене, лучше просто затопите этими деньгами мангальчик, полезней будет.

    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.
