    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Para mi el juego es una maravilla, lo disfrute y creo que a muchos tambien, es increible como se logra un juego de este calibre. Para empezar la jugabilidad es increible, la protagonista me gusto conecte mas con ella en este juego y entedi sus motivaciones ya sean malas ya que la venganza es algo serio que no se toma a la ligera y creo que entendi el porque no lo hizo al final, el soundtrack estuvo adecuado en los momentos de tension, la historia en si tiene muchos fallos, creo que la alargaron mucho al momento de sentirse cansado pero puedes dejarlo de largo y pasarla increible. Reciente mente se armos la polemica de varios que odiaron el juego, quiero decir que sus argumentos son estupidos nada mas porque otros lo dicen lo que vale es tu opinion y mi opinion es que ,e gusto el juego, quisiera agradecer en persona a neil drunkman por haberlo hecho y lo mismo para naugthy dog, es un juego exelente con mucho valor y tambien para todos aquellos involucrados en el porque se que fue agotador hacerlo. El juego es un deleite y su polemica por su historia, si dejas de largo el tema planteado no pasara nada es de hecho un plus del juego para humanizar a los personajes, que sientas que en verdad sufren porque se eso se trata esta arte, de conectar con lo que estas viendo y last of us part 2 conecto mucho conmigo y espero que con muchos haya conectado. Aquellos que no esta bien su opinion es respetada pero si lo vuelven un escandalo como ya lo hicieron al final sabran que estan equivocados y que a mucha gente si le gusto. Pero claro el juego tiene muchas fallas, como la muerte de cierto personaje y el personaje de abby que al principio estuvo bien pero al final no me gusto y tampoco me gusto que le dieran el papel co portagonista pero a pesar de todo last of us part 2 es un exelente juego. 100 de 10. gracias… Expand

    (Maybe) negatives:
    The story. The thing that everyone seems to be complaining about or, more specifically, people that reviewed the game on the day it came out, and couldn't have possibly known the whole story without reading the leaks. If you just read the story without experiencing the game, I can totally understand why you would be upset, but the game does a pretty good job at making you question Ellie's motivations, and showing the similarities between her and the "antagonist" of the game. Not a PERFECT job, but a respectable job, and despite having seen similar stories to this game in other media, it feels fresh and exciting to see a story like this told through a video game where we actually get to perform the acts of the characters.

    Overall, this game is a solid 7/10. The reason I gave it a 10 was to counter-balance all the 0 reviews from people that just read the leaks and didn't even play it.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Hi there. Here are a few of my thoughts about The last of us 2. It's ok to not like a game. I love it, but that's just me. What is not ok, is to collectively review bomb something by calling it trash, when it is one of the best looking games to come out on ps4. This game is a work of art. It is beautiful and engaging. It is deeply polarizing, which is why the fanbase is so divided about it. Again, that's fine. The story is dark, bleak and deeply upsetting. It's a revenge tale. To have a revenge video game, we as the player, need something powerful enough to drive us to want to seek that vengeance. Thus, we come to the death of Joel, one of gaming's most beloved characters. People don't like that. I get it. Hell I don't like it. But it is a damn good way to motivate me to go an a murder rampage halfway across the country to bring his killers to task. Also to show the cycle of vengeance, they have to show us what led Abby to do the dastardly deed, and I am glad that we were put in her shoes to do that. I feel that we are not supposed to sympathize with her, but empathize. To see the path that made her a monster, and to draw parallels between her, and Joel from the first game. Let us remember after Joel lost his daughter, Joel became a murderous piece of **** too. He would cut thru any number of people to accomplish whatever he was doing at the time. This game is about Ellie going down that same path, but instead of finishing her task and killing her rival, she lets go and finds her humanity. Abby does the same. The game ends without a conclusion. The protagonist and antagonist are still alive. This is made this way to make us feel as empty inside, as Ellie does, now that she is alone with everyone she knew and loved either dead or gone. The message is a powerful one, whether or not you enjoy it. It definitely didn't make me feel good. The biggest reason I even did this review is because I saw the toxic gaming community condemning this game simply because they didn't like the story. That doesn't make it an objectively bad game, just one you might not like. Hands down this is one of the prettiest games I've ever played, and the combat is engaging and visceral. The constant collecting of junk got old at times, but whatever. That's not game breaking. I would honestly rate this an 8, but I'm rating it 10 to compensate for the undeserved user scores it's been getting. Also if your complaint about this game is that it includes a couple LGBTQ characters in it, **** you, bigot. You're a piece of **** and you may not know it, but everyone else does.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is a good story that I believe was told badly. This game genuinely has parts of the story that I enjoyed, but I feel goes too far in delivering its themes and messages to me. I don't mind the fact that Joel being murdered due to the consequences of his actions in a previous game and then being forced to play as the murderer to see a different perspective, but the way it happened and the order of events didn't work with me. I also found the ending boss fight with Abby and Ellie to be wholly unnecessary and gratuitous in its efforts to hammer in its theme of forgiveness.… Expand

This game has many twists and turns in store, and while some are certainly controversial, Naughty Dog has crafted a unique, captivating story that is unforgettable. The game is long, and as a result has some points in the game that are much slower than others, but the climatic points of the game make the entire thing worth it. 9/10, I think cutting 3/4 hours off the game would have done it justice, but overall and amazing experience.… Expand

Анимации лиц, эти пейзажи, смотря на это, ты ненароком удивляешься как ребенок от увиденного. В этом плане Noughty dog не подкачали. Что касаемо сюжета, то тут все не так однозначно, До самых последних минут катсцен я пытался выдавить хоть какую то каплю сопереживания персонажем, не подумайте, что я такой бесчеловечный, но в действительности, что история Эбби меня не тронула, так же и с Элли. Даже не смотря на то что когда я проходил первую часть еще на ps3 я был просто без ума от Элли, да что уж тут говорить я прочувствовался практически ко всем персонажам оригинальной игры, мне были понятны их мотивы, я понимал их эмоции, мне было жаль из в какие то моменты, я радовался вместе с ними, но здесь я не смог испытать всего этого спектра эмоций. Изначально я ставил этой игре 7 баллов, но за время написания этого текста я понял, что она не дотягивает до этой оценки и 5 баллов для нее потолок.

As for a review, if you had played the first game and had a deep emotional connection with the characters, don’t play this game. Nil himself admitted that he’d be disappointing a lot of fans.

For the purpose of no spoilers won't go in details, but in the second half I had hard time caring for the story there because of the events in the first half.

    The other main issue for me was the ending. I understand the message they want us to get there and that is fine. BUT I think with this game and the way it plays - the player deserves a choice at the end and different ending for it. After all we are different people and we react differently to the events in the game. The choice how to end it should be ours at least once. We were robbed of that in the first game but it didn't matter, because it was fitting for the way the story was told there. Here would've had better impact due to the separation of the game into two big chuncks.    … Expand

    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...
