    -Awesome Graphics -Awful Story
    -Awful Ending
    -The whole franchise is ruined after 2 hours of gameplay. This isn’t what we expected after 7 years of waiting.

    Wow, this "game" actually **** sucks. 60$ for a disappointing story and **** gameplay.

    It seems like they tried making this a film instead of an actual game. Seriously it seemed like most of this game was just cutscenes that you can sometimes interact with. Don't even get me started on Abby, jesus christ who the **** thought she was a good character.

    This "game" is written like a fan fiction, adding characters no one cares about and then destroying the good ones. Sound familiar?

    And the writing is **** basic shock-value writing, did they take inspiration from The Walking Dead or something?

    The game is not interesting. I don't understand why I have to play Abby characters.

    I don't understand the ending. I know what the game message is, but it's not convincing, and when you kill hundreds of zombies and people, you just kill them, and suddenly you're hesitant to empathize with the kid who killed Joel? It doesn't make sense. It's too much to force a message in. Neil Druckman    The game is not interesting. I don't understand why I have to play Abby characters.

    Neil Druckman says he wants to hate his fans passionately, but if he's going to ruin their mood like that, he's not going to pay for Laoer 2, or he's just going to suck up their money and betray them?    … Expand

TLOU 2 оставила у меня очень смешенные чувства, которые в основном негативные, история отвртатна, особенно когда так бесславно, так по-скотски убили Джоэла, но зато у нас есть пропоганда ЛГБТ, я ничего не имею против, но этой игре такое не идёт вообще, нет чувства серьёзности, персонажи в этой игре почти все не раскрыты, осталось очень много вопросов, при всём хорошем что есть в этой игре сюжет уничтожает эту игру Полностью!!! Я жалею что заплатил за эту игру, она просто Ужасна!!! Naughty Dog вы меня разочаровали, вы потеряли для меня свой авторитет и доверие. Я всё сказал.… Expand

    There are so many glaring plot holes in the story. The gameplay itself is mediocre at best. It feels like a game that was released when it wasn’t ready. Shame.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My anger is that Ellie didn't achive her vengeance, because she decided not to kill after killing a lot of another character. I think the reason why they left abby alive is for a DLC or another game, otherwise I don't find another reason why Ellie didn't achive her vengeance. The graphics and gameplay are great. I wiil like a ending where Ellie achive her vengeance and then regretting because it doesn't make her fill better.
    That's my opinion.    … Expand

    literally a black hole of a plot. from joel's/tommy's/jesse's stupidity to random moments like Abby just happen to pin point joel's location or find a map that guess what leads to Ellie.
    Or random mind changes like: oh i want revenge...And then :...oh wait i changed my mind... oh no wait...actually, I am going to kill the person that killed all my friends that i knew for like a decade or    literally a black hole of a plot. from joel's/tommy's/jesse's stupidity to random moments like Abby just happen to pin point joel's location or find a map that guess what leads to Ellie.

    Gameplay is extremely repetitive. You spend time opening skills only to do the same on Abby. Abby's story is extremely plain and boring and they force you to play for her almost 15 hours. Didn't even bother to add multiple endings.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Stellar graphics make an amazing game better.

    Amazing graphics don't make a bad game good.

    The Last of Us introduces you to great, yet broken characters that grow and evolve as the game progresses, there is complexity and thought provoking ideals gracefully presented to the player. It emerges you in a dark, post apocalyptic bleak world. But some friendly banter and reminiscence of times gone brings some relief, sometimes comedic, sometimes sad relief from the world. It's was this small nuance in character development that made Sam and Henry unforgettable and their deaths that much more painful

    The Last of Us part II forgoes all that and decides to just take characters and change their mindset on a whim in order to force a standard run of the mill violent vengence plot on the player. The story is full of holes and apparently a whole lot happened in 4 years. PSP's make a comeback in 2038. I'm sorry but the first game set you up to believe the world had gone to absolute crap. Part II shows us nature reclaiming cities, yet I'm supposed to believe that a 25+year old PSP survived, still holds a charge longer than 10mins and the UMD disc's haven't corroded? When did society begin making clothes? there are many inconsistencies that break the game out of the setting it's placed in. But hey it all LOOKS good.

    Back to the story, it plays out sort of like Kill Bill, only by the end of the movie she lets Bill go instead of giving him the the 5 point exploding heart treatment. Over and over again Ellie pays the price for vengeance only to in the end let her target go for no reason, in fact it portrays the direction they took her character. So at the end of the game your left empty and alone without event the satisfaction of revenge.
    In fact if you want a good violent revenge story go watch the Kill Bill movies and if you want a revenge plot done better in a game format look to Tales of Berseria.

    Now this alone doesn't subject it to a ZERO score. However the game was marketed and early reviewers were strictly forbidden to talk about key points to mislead the public. The entire premise was to paint this light that the player would be returning to the world and the story would once again revolve around Ellie and Joel. This kind of bait and switch tactics, combined with the active DMCA striking and the mentality that you either kiss ND's (both Naughty Dog and Neil Druckman) ass and call the game amazing 10/10 or your "Toxic" or a "Incel" drops its below average score of 4 to a 2. Just because I don't think the game is amazing doesn't mean I'm Toxic. They are free to say its "The most ambitious game" and I'm free to disagree with that, it doesn't mean either party is being Toxic. People can agree to disagree but ND doesn't want to be civil about it.    … Expand

    this game was a very big disappointment considering how great the first game was.
    this game rips all the combat aspects of the first except now you can fall over while being shot at. other than that gameplay mechanics are almost identical, the story of the game is a complete train wreck within the first two hours of the game you've been introduced to around seven new character's or    this game was a very big disappointment considering how great the first game was.

    it doesn't get any better from there, only worse up until it really feels like we the player have been forced into a long depressing cutscene on rails where we are forced to make the worst decisions possible and then forced to endure the horrible outcome.
    its an experience I don't suggest to anyone really the game is riddled with triggers like, sexual abuse animal abuse, abuse abuse, soft and hard porn, etc. the game also has plot wholes and confusing characters who do and say things that make no sense what so ever.
    my final opinion after playing about half of the game and giving up after being forced to kill a couple innocent puppys, the game does a pretty bad job of keeping you engaged while telling an overall depressing story with an even more depressing end. gameplay mechanic wise I guess you could say it played good for the short time it felt like I actually got to play, during my play thru I kept finding myself saying "oh do I have to move now" over and over again to a point where the game was putting me to sleep.
    not great, don't buy this for anyone under the age of 14 it would most likely scar them for life    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. They've ruined the story, is what they've done. The way they killed Joel off was extremely idiotic and never would have happened in TLoU part 1. The story just seemed to be one big pandering session for the LGBT community. It's not bad to have SOME Inclusion but it seemed that the whole game was only made FOR THEM while disregarding everything that happened to the last game.

    The gameplay doesn't look to be any improved from the last one, which is rather sad.

    Not only that but at the last battle, it simply leaves a sour taste and a slap to every fan of the first part. Ellie, who cut through and killed hundreds to get to Abby, Joel's killer, Decides on the last moment; when she could kill Abby right then and there, drowning her, to grow a conscience and lets the KILLER OF HER ADOPTIVE FATHER LEAVE. While Abby had some knife slashes to her, Ellie got two WHOLE fingers BIT off. But no, it's a game clearly worth of a near perfect score right?

    Not for me. The "critics" Are clearly paid for good reviews, or filled with SJW jacks. This game is not deserving of such high marks.    … 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]
