    In a word, devastating. You won’t play a better game or experience a better story. Don’t listen to the negative reviews - this just oozes quality from every frame.

    Not only Naughty Dog's best game yet, but also the best game Sony has ever realised. It's been days since I finished it and it is still stuck on my head. Masterpiece is a understatement for what this game is. Congrats, PLEASE keep making games like this. This is the closest a game has ever been to a movie.

    This game I found to be very enjoyable, the graphics and movements were top-tier quality and the story was balanced with just enough down time/happy moments to balance out the intense action. The characters felt natural and well written. The game is very different to the first one and from everything else that has come from Naughty Dog, however that's the charm, this is a game-changingThis game I found to be very enjoyable, the graphics and movements were top-tier quality and the story was balanced with just enough down time/happy moments to balance out the intense action.

The game is very different to the first one and from everything else that has come from Naughty Dog, however that's the charm, this is a game-changing experience. Naughty dog and all the staff involved with every aspect of the game should be commended for thinking outside the box and giving an engaging experience to players. It encouraged different perspectives, not just the blind kill everyone and everything that walks approach of other games.
    Overall this was a highly enjoyable experience, perhaps not for everybody but I recommend trying the game itself to form your own opinion as some opinions on this game can be biased. Happy playing!    … Expand

    Honestly, ignore the negative reviews on this. They're either from racists/homophobes/transphobes or people who can't enjoy a well done story that doesn't just do what fans beg. Even if you disagree with the story every other element is improved upon the first game. Incredible story and experience. Get it now!

    The AI from this game is unrecognizable from the first. Insane improvements. I also enjoyed the story more than the first. The people complaining about "agenda pushing" have the thinnest skin I've ever seen.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great story. Great visuals. Great music. Personally I didn’t really like playing as Abby, because after her scene with Joel I saw her as a villain. Especially I didn’t like it when I had to fight as her against Ellie, but seeing her perspective was definitely something new and interesting. Still the game was awesome. Definitely Top 3 of this generation.… Expand

    Fui muy fan del primer juego, y aunque la historia es triste es bastante buena y sobre todo impactante, me alegra que el juego sea triste por qué así se me quedara marcado para siempre, no os quejeis por la historia por qué es impresionante y una maravilla.
    En el apartado técnico y gráfico nada que añadir, mis dieses

    Don’t believe the **** post reviews. This game is sad, but that only adds to the believability of the story. The fact that this story doesn’t make you feel good, shouldnt detract from how we interpret the quality of this game overall. This **** is good. Buy it and enjoy the hell out of it

    On my second play through on survivor+ and TLOU2 continues to shine. This game takes narrative risks but ultimately adds new layers to the story unveiled during The Last of Us. Naughty Dog has delivered masterfully with its latest achievement. Salutations all round to cast and crew.

    The game is about how difficult it is to look at the situation through the eyes of another person. How difficult it is to forgive and how difficult it is to lose someone. Great game

    Great game, amazing graphics and game play. The story is great but it is not designed to please fans, it makes you feel vulnerable and in a real feeling of danger like if any of the characters can die any moment.

    Great play, naughty dog.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I dived into this game with caution after reading some general comments on social media. I took my time to play it and enjoy it and I am glad that I did it with an open mind. This is one of the best narratives I've seen in a videogame,

    Calling this a "revenge story" is diminishing what this game tries to portray, those gamers hating the game because they make you play as Abby are exactly what the developers wanted. To feel the anger of pain of losing a father, but then understanding the path to forgiveness and acceptance.

    If you got mad at Joel's death, felt Anger towards Abby, wanted her to die as much as Ellie did, the the game suceeded and deserves all the praise in the world. However, if at the end of the game you got mad because the plot of revenge never came to an end, then you might have beaten the game, but failed at what the story was trying to portray.

    The only reason why this game is not a 10 IMO is because the gameplay loop is a little bit boring (just as the first one) and because I really didn't enjoy the setting of the last chapter.    … Expand

    The Last of Us Part 2 has a different proposal from the first one, it excenletly potrays the violence and the hate cycle in a destroyed world. It is one of the best games I have ever played

    The best part of this game is the introduction of what will undoubtedly be a classic video game character: Abby...whatever her last name turned out to be. She's the most accurate depiction of a video game heroine that I've ever seen. I'm a huge fan of her, and I'm hoping to see more of her in the future.

    Esta es una historia para todo tipo de personas, por supuesto que muchas personas lo odian y respeto eso. Pero sin duda es una continuación más que digna y justificada de la anterior, donde profundizamos la relación con Ellie y Joel.
    No quiero dar spoilers, pero si realmente entiendes de filosofía y literatura, el final con el que nos deja es un claro ejemplo de como llevar una historia a su límite. El final es una simbologia total de la relación que Ellie no pudo arreglar a tiempo con Joel, hasta que al final, por fin puede perdonarse a si misma, esa es la razón por la qué no mata a Abby.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ellie regresa como protagonista y se profundiza a detalle en sus relaciones interpersonales, de pareja y con su defectuosa figura paterna. El viaje que tomará es introspectivo, pues conocerá fragmentos de su pasado que cambiaron la perspectiva de quienes la rodean. Se trata de un ejercicio narrativo efectivo ya que no se siente que se haya traicionado la esencia de los personajes principales. Para lograr lo anterior, las actuaciones de Troy Baker y Ashley Johnson son realmente encomiables porque aportan una enorme dosis de humanidad a lo que se ve en pantalla. Ashley es, sin duda, quien se roba el show gracias a una actuación estelar que refleja de forma humana los diferentes matices en cada faceta del personaje de Ellie. Baker, por su parte, retrata a un hombre agotado que carga con demasiado en la espalda y quien busca la redención en una de las personas que más estima en la vida y que, incluso, ama incondicionalmente. En ambos casos, las caracterizaciones son estelares y dignas de todo elogio imaginable.… Expand

I like to take games nice and slow so I can soak up all the details and what’s going on in the story, so that’s why it took me so long since I pre-ordered it. First off, I understand why this game is getting so much hate. I really get it. I think the hate is wrong and misplaced, but I get it. Except for me, all the things that everyone hates so much, I actually don’t mind. These things were necessary for the story. Especially when you have to do that thing halfway through the game for over 10 hours, I didn’t mind it and I thought it added a lot of humanity to the game and the characters. Towards the end, I hated both sides and didn’t want anyone to win because I thought everyone was wrong. And then in the final 3-4 hours, I loved both sides and was happy with the way it ended. The story of Joel and Ellie (and others) is a beautiful one and all in all, it’s a 10/10 for me. It’s not nearly as good as the first game, but it’s a 10/10 in its own way. Good job Naughty Dog. Proud of your team for going a direction not many people go. It’s a masterpiece whether people will admit or not. I think the reason people hate the game is because they wanted to play a game that they wanted. But you don’t get what you want. You support the developers and play their game. You’re not in charge of how a game comes out. So be the consumer and stop hating. If you’re hesitant to buy this game, I’d recommend it, but only if you go in with an open mind and ready to process all that’s thrown at you. It’s an emotional and intense game that has more twists than anyone could have guessed even outside the leaks. Play it. Just go for it.… Expand

    I could go on a long diatribe about this game. Truly I could go on-and-on about the the incredible gameplay, the expert storytelling, or the immaculate worldbuilding, but at the end of it all, it would mean just the same as this short summary: I was genuinely moved. This game affected my emotions in a way that games rarely do. It wasn’t always fun or easy, but it had me gripped the entire way.

    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]
