    Ugly main characters. Where is Joel? Lgbt is ok for me, but two female characters really boring.

Игра не достойна ничего, растереть и забыть, а деньги потратить на что-нибудь другое.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spoiler separate at bottom. Beautiful to look at but other then that just a horrible disappointment, weak story which just got progressively worse as game progressed. Unlike the original it left no mark on me but indifference. All the subtle nuance of the original replaced with a simplistic viciousness. It's so blatantly obvious & repetitive with it's message & themes. Treats it's audience like dumb 9 year olds. Overall just a big let down from what should of been a great end to PS4. Thank god for Cyberpunk & CDProjektRed! Oh and Ghost of Tsushima.

    SPOILER: i really didn't like being forced to play half the game as the killer of one of my favourite 2 characters from the first game. Not sure why developers thought any fan of the original would be OK with that. I mean we loved the original & it's 2 antagonists. Truly feel in love with them & their story so this felt like a kick in the teeth & almost a mockery & disrespect to the player base.    … Expand

    The plot is pure trash, graphics and mechanics are beautiful but the story completely overshadow it. 1 just for the playability and some characters. Anyways this game is awful, play TLOU 1 instead

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game sucks and here's why. Joel dies. If this is your 1st time entering the game. I won't blame ya for liking it because you don't know the story. For those who played the 1st part, we have cared and fell in love with the characters we played. We were invested in them. Like when you worked hard on a project and they are like your children. would you want to tear down your work or let others do it? Most probably not, but naughty dog did. they killed your hard work. they killed their first game. Just like that, they had no love for their work and decide its their kid they can kill it if they want. For those who actually like the game because you say its just a game. I say, ok i will accept that answer. But you probably have no soul or have no gamer soul because apparently you did not invest any feeling towards what you played. This game is a story based game. so if you can't love your story that means you didn't put any soul into your game. Worst storytelling ever, the game mechanic is identical to the 1st which means... no improvements. In the end, this game ruins your believes of wanting to be a good person. Because it leaves you scared for life and there is no redemption for our child who we cared for. She was left lonely... no family to called her own... and leaves so much anger in you that you would swear next time if it was you and for your family future... You will CLEAN UP and ties up loose ends. Or 1 day, that might be what ends up for you and your family :)

    This game is slap in the face to all the true fans of the first game. I am not sure why the story had to be this crappy. If one of the most loved protagonists had to die, ND could've given them "better", more heroic death, possibly at the end of the game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us 1 is one of my most favorite games ever and imo one of the best narrative experiences ever put on screen. While TLOU's story and gameplay were great, it was Joel and Ellie themselves that made The Last of Us a true masterpiece. You see, the core of The Last of Us isn't the zombies or the violence or even the gameplay itself. The core of the Last of Us is and always will be Joel and Ellie despite what Naughty Dog and all these pseudo game critics want you to believe.

    Joel, one of the best fictional characters that I've ever seen, is completely disrespected and cast aside in favor of a new character named Abby. At this point, everyone and their mother's **** has heard of Abby and what she does to Joel. Not only does she kill Joel but she bashes his brains in with a golf club in front of Ellie, and Abby's associate (who is just a stand in for Neil Druckmann) spits on Joel's corpse, and this all happens towards the start of the game.

    Right off the bat, its clear that Naughty Dog has lost their way and forgot what drew the fans to TLOU in the first place. or maybe they just didn't give a **** TLOU 2 wants to make it very clear that Joel is a piece of **** who deserved death because he killed a lot of people but I think that actively goes against what the first game was going for. TLOU 1 showed us a world in which people cast aside notions of right and wrong and put survival above all else, Joel being one of those people. It told a complex narrative and presented complex characters who were neither good or bad but HUMAN.
    TLOU 2 yeets all that **** out the window and just says that Joel is a piece of **** who doomed humanity and we should actively root for Abby (It doesn't help that Abby is so ****ing unlikable).

    TLOU 2 wants the player to realize the cycle of violence is bad but none of this applies to Abby, who gets away with EVERYTHING. So Ellie murders countless people just to get to Abby but once she finally has the chance to kill her, she just has an abrupt realization that violence and revenge is a big no no so Abby gets to walk away.

Lo único que capaz que no convence CAPAZ es el final que a mí me gustó pero entiendo que la gente pueda dudar , el resto no entiendo osea la historia está súper bien desarrollada el jugar con abby está muy bien como te hacen dudar si lo que Ellie hace esta bien l nl...

Even though the graphics and the gameplay are impressive, playing a game where the initial motive of the story is unfulfilled makes the rest of gaming experience pointless. Playing as the killer did not help with the score as well as most of the players have developed deep attachment to Joel from the first game. If I did not play as abby in this game i would have given this game at least a 5.… Expand

    _First half of the game makes the player forget a little bit about that dumb-Joel nonsense until the game makes you play as the character you hate, the one who killed Joel.. 10 hours of boring redondent gameplay with characters you don't care about , hoping for a final revenge..

    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]
