    Una experiencia maravillosa, 7 años de espera valen la pena. Nos demuestra que nadie en este mundo es tan importante o imprescindible, que no existen los buenos y malos, todo es cuestión de perspectivas. Obra maestra!

    This game is a masterpiece that does not hold back, nor does it care about your feelings or your thoughts of it but it does give you both feelings and thoughts. The last of us 2 takes you on the journey it wants to tell you and it doesn't take you any other way. If I could I would give this game an 11/10 but unfortunately I can't.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us Part II is a very good game, not great and not bad.
    ---- Story:
    The game's story is good, not worse than the first part. I liked it, I liked the end very much, it was not usual. I had no problem with the slow pace, but I have a problem with the order of the chapters, for me this game would have been great if it had a different order for the chapters, it would have given me more feelings if the order was different. I mean; instead of playing with Ellie then playing with Abby it would have been better to play a chapter by Ellie then a chapter by Abby, it would have a bigger impact on the player. The other thing that I have a problem with is that there were too many flashbacks in the game. I don't say we remove them, some of them were good and important, but I think it would have been better to give them to the player at the start of the game, especially "The Park" chapter would have been great at the beginning of the game. So the story is good except for two things, 1. The Chapter Order. 2. Too Many Flashbacks.
    ---- Game-play:
    The game-play was the main reason that I had no problem with the slow pace. The game-play is so enjoyable, with the accessibility options, guns, and animations. New things like: going prone, the dogs as enemies, the difference between the human enemies, and the boss fight. The game-play is excellent.
    ---- Game Direction & Art Direction:
    The game direction in the cut-scenes was very good, I liked it. The Art Direction was also very good, the designs of everything were excellent.
    ---- Graphics & Sound:
    The graphics and graphical details in the game were great, this is one of the Generation's best games in terms of graphics with God of War and Red Dead Redemption II. And this is the best one in terms of graphical details. In terms of sound, the sound design was also great, the whistles and everything, and of course the soundtrack is great, I am still listening to it after finishing the game.

    Gameplay and graphic are best.
    But i don't like some plot's moments like Ellie's inconsistency: First she want to kill Abby and then she doesn't kill her. Naugty Dog it's one of the best game company
    And with respect to them and to this game, I give this assessment.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Eu adorei o jogo tanto pelos gráficos,enrendo, jogabilidade e a história em si, mas eu não entendo o motivo dos jogadores terem um grande ódio pelo jogo, quando Abby mata Joel fiquei furioso e tinha sede de vingança, mas com o passar da história essa sede que eu possuía foi perdendo razão e ela se terminou por completo quando o jogo nos coloca na pele de Abby vendo o mundo por outros olhos, que ela era mais uma pessoa em meio ao um apocalipse estava tentando sobreviver, com razão ela tinha motivos para matar Joel por ter matado seu pai, privado o mundo de uma possível cura pra humanidade fora de ter matado outras pessoas por egoísmo, na cena em que entramos no quarto de Abby isso caiu a ficha pra mim, tanto Ellie como Abby estavam apenas agindo da maneira como elas achavam que era a correta, isso é uma questão de moral e perspectiva. E o jogo não tem motivos pra recebe tanto ódio e muito menos ameaçar e fazer comentários ofensivos sobre aqueles que ajudaram a produzir o jogo.… Expand

Ellie broke this cycle of violence with Abby, which is a great character with growth throughout the game. Ellie is not the enemy. In this game there are no enemy.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. they got very heavy with the game, the haters were very unfair when evaluating. Even though the game has some narrative problems, I don’t think it’s enough to detonate. Remembering I’m not a fanboy, but I have to recognize that the game is wonderful. There is no point in watching videos or lives, as you will not be as immersed as you are playing, because your attention and emotion is a thousand times better. I have a friend who is an xbox fanboy, and he detonated the game, saying it was this and that. But if he had played the story it would be different. For in other respects, other than the somewhat problematic story that in the end is good, even controlling the villain who killed an important character, the game is impeccable and deserves your attention and a chance!… Expand

    This game was an absolute 10/10. A masterpiece. Of course it is relevant only with the first game. The characters, the old ones and the new ones, are beautifully well written. It is a sad and tragic story for sure, with some heartwarming and touching moments. Yes, I get it, this is not how most of the players imagined a sequel, but we all have to agree on this and admit it: this is 'The Last of Us' way, you can't get a truly happy ending, this world is not about that. Also this is not about fan service. Yes it is an emotional rollercoaster, I am amazed how I hated someone at the beginning and how I loved the same character at the end, how my opinion changed time to time in a lot of ways. I love it. This game became my favourite with the previous episode together.    … Expand

    The best game that could be made. This game with Uncharted and Last of us 1 and God of War is really unique. The story is very engaging and the characters are very lovable and real. I was really surprised to see all that negative criticism. 1000 thanks to Naughty Dog Studio and Sony for making this beautiful game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A good game overall. Clocked 30 hours of gameplay on this and it's been a journey! The storyline is gripping and powerful as you go through the walks of life of both Ellie and Abby. You get a sense of great story telling here, understanding the story from different point of views. I got very invested into the story to say the least. Character development are very well done here leaving no ambiguity or questions unanswered. It is an experience not to be missed if you've played the first game! There's a lot of unnecessary comments where a load of people are just jumping on the band wagon for the sake of it.

    Yes Joel dies but this is fine as Ellie carries the torch now and it's a really good shock factor too! Yes the ending has divided fans too but Ellie reflects on her decision at the end which gives her some humanity back from the teachings of Joel.

    The only not so good thing on this game was it can feel repetitive sometimes sneaking around, killing infected, running into human survivors and more sneaking around.    … Expand

    As a first thought, I genuinely think this game is an expert in making you have very mixed opinions which are ALL equally valid. In my case, there are a lot of things that I absolutely agree with the critics but at the same time, I don't.

In my case, there are a lot of things that I absolutely agree with the critics but at the same time, I don't. Many say that the ending is horrible, and I get why they would say it and in some way, I agree with them. But also, by looking at the full story you realize that it is at the same time a very good ending. That's what I find most interesting. A lot of events and mayor spoilers that piss everyone off can be really good and ingenious and absolutely bad at the same time. In my case, when I finished the game I didn't even know if I liked it or not. It was so confusing and it led to lots of mixed opinions in my head that I had no "only thought" about it.

    Technically it is a masterpiece. The graphics are mindblowing and the gameplay is on point. The combat is probably the most fun I had ever had and it all blends together nicely. The acting is award-winning, as well as the soundtrack by Santaolalla and all the sound-making in general. The environments, as all of Naughty Dog's games, are just breathtaking. The bad thing that I and lots of people found about this game is the story. I personally loved TLOU and its narrative, as it became one of the games that most impacted me and has definitively changed my way of seeing things. I have completed it 3 times, the last one in the most difficult setting. That is why I wanted TLOU 2 to be a continuation of Ellie's and Joel's story because I wanted to be back at that world again. The problem for me is that it doesn't really happen, and half or more of the game is filled with new characters with different stories in different places. Some people may like this and its why I said that this game is an expert in leaving different opinions that are all equally valid. For me, I wanted a story based on Joel and Ellie again, but maybe others wanted a different narrative with different characters, which I respect the same way I respect my likings.

    In general, I don't think at all the game deserves the hate it got at its release, because it is a really good game. And I respect the fact that they risked a lot to make something different and not just go to the safe option and make a game that everyone will like so they can get guaranteed success. They really tried to make something different and not just give the player what he wants and that's something all of us should consider before leaving a negative review.

    In conclusion, I think it is a good game and it is not something you will regret buying, although you will have to keep in mind the fact that there may be aspects or parts of the game which you might not like.    … Expand

Sure, naughty dog says F you to what the fans wanted, but they ultimately give us a story that we need. A story that forces us to confront our actions, to rethink situations from different perspectives, and to ask ourselves some of the most difficult, philosophical, and human questions that has not been yet developed as adamantly in a video game. I’ll admit that there are times where the pacing suffers, but after multiple playthroughs I see that these pacing hurdles are necessary for the collective understanding of the game. The visuals are breathtaking, the gameplay, If still familiar, is fresh, updated, and above all, super fun. Everything leads up to one staggering conclusion that challenged me me as a gamer and as a human. I’ve never had to question my actions in a video game before until I’ve played this game, and that on its own, is a remarkable accomplishment. Like Troy Baker said: “fans need to come into this game with an open mind.” He was right because this game will not sit right with some fans because of some narrative choices, but just because you don’t like where the story goes, it doesn’t mean that the story doesn’t work. It does work if you ask me, and this is a game that will be discussed for years to come. This is what art is all about; encourage discourse but be nice to each other.… 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]
