    A nearly perfect game in every way. From start to finish, the gameplay and story kept me completely sucked in. On top of that the world you are placed in is incredible and immersive.

    I had my freedom of speech banned 3 times, so I'm just going to write that this director's puppet deserves a 0 for following the advice of a paranoid against female beauty.

    Amazing life experience. It's probably the most realistic game I have ever play, a grim reality. Were people are humans and commit mistakes that they regret by time. It's not the tipical Hollywood plot where heroes are good and villians bad and the hero always wins and does the right thig. That is why all the hait, many gamers are not use to this tipe of stories.

It's a game who isn't afraid of taking bold moves, like making you play the character who killed the previous main character and is widely successful to make you like this character. I mean, by the end of it I didn't want Ellie to kill Abby or Abby to Kill Ellie. And the gameplay is a blast… Expand

    The Last of us Part 2 pushed the industry in a new direction. The amount of emotions I felt playing the game was something I never felt before and for that alone I recommend the purchase of the game. The graphics are amazing and gameplay is similar to The last of us 1 however everything is turned up to a new level.

    This is an absolutely incredible game. The haters can hate all they want. I do understand why people would not like a game like this game. To play half the game as the person Ellie is supposed to kill is difficult. But the conflict which I experienced inside my own mind was nothing like anything I have experienced. I think this sets up part 3 beautifully.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There are good games, and there are bad games. Then there is this game.

    I must congratulate Naughty Dog on it. In terms of how it looks it's fantastic. On how it plays, it's.. iffy. On the Storyline........... wow, I just dont understand what you were thinking.

    So, let me explain Character in Story.

    In the original, we have an Anti-Hero. Joel defines this by being the hero of our story but by being pretty much amoral... that's to say he clearly believes whatever he does is right, screw everything else. Secondly, we have his Sidekick and/or the secondary character, Ellie. It's our hero's job to protect her. So, what we psychologically learn from this is that we care ABOUT Joel, we care FOR Ellie.

    Now, I'm not launching into some anti-feminist/trans/woke (delete as appropriate) rant here, but the problem is you've given us a lead character that we care FOR. I, as a fan of Naughty dog for many many years now, was fully aware that this game was to be played as Ellie, and that was fine because I enjoyed Left Behind (oh, to the weirdos who didnt know Ellie was gay.... play more games/do your research). However, I need more from a hero in a Story than "oh, you were the person I looked after in the last one". So why should I give a **** about Ellie? Because I'm supposed to? Yeah, not how it works. Perhaps this game should have been the next one, because all the flashback stuff suggests you could have built an entire game with Joel and Ellie where it becomes more comfrotable to play with Ellie and show that she is now fully self reliant..... but no. Here we are, the girl can now stealth her way though 99% of the game (a mechanic that makes zero sense but w/e), well thats just fantastic. Thing is, everybody loved Ellie in the original, but we all knew she needed Joel, and that's what we were there for. What you have created here is a Rey Skywalker level Mary Sue.

    So is the idea "hey, they care about Joel, lets kill him and then the player will want revenge, and they'll definitely want to get it as Ellie"? Well, F that. The only character to logically put you in control of is Tommy, but no, Mary Sue to the rescue.

    Anyway, the other lead. Yeah, she killed Joel, aka THE ONLY CHARACTER WE ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT. So why in gods name should we care? The guilt trip of "oh, Joel killed her father"........ please, please, please understand this: The Character we care ABOUT did everything to protect the character we care FOR. So we (the player, the Joels) do not care who we killed or if they had children, it did not and does not matter to us, Ellie matters. These consequences are nothing to us, so it's no wonder people hated Abby from the get go. Regardless of her image and so on, whatever she looked like, we would not like her because, oh, *Spoiler Alert* she killed Joel.

    Also, Abby's whole story is boring. Like.... chick flick boring, like aunt Patty and Selma's holiday slideshow boring, like the Giant machine that dug the Mont Blanc tunnel: BORING. All just sideways angst. And then there's the..... ummm, "sex scene?" (Could only have been more hideously uncomfortable if Owen spat on his fingers to lube up). You guys know kids play video games right? And parents buy kids video games and dont care what they are right? And hugely popular games are always wanted by kids? And zombie killing games are wanted by kids? All these small children, exposed to that? I'll just say it: "Naughty Dog, Bad Dog, Bad Bad Dog".

    The Scars were stupid, pointless and designed to be in the way (hey, just put zombies in the way, we'll care more)

    The Rat King was cool, but the battle was exhaustingly repetitive.

    Aaand finally. Don't make people kill dogs. Just don't. It's unwanted. Zombie dog? Sure. Healthy dog? No thanks.

    Take it as a lesson learned. Bring back Joel. That lovely window of time between his daughter dying and the Boston QZ is ripe for some zombie killing and army man murdering. A rampage of bittersweet joy. Oh. Hope. Hope is a whore.    … Expand

    1) story is HORRIBLE absolutely HORRIBLE. 2) playing as Abby sucked the story right out of me I honestly wanted to stop playing at first I wasn’t as excited anymore so Naughty Dog thought they had a good idea but it was a terrible idea to make half the game about a character who killed one of my all time fave characters. 3) way too many cut scenes WAY TOO MANY. 4) sex in a game was a nice touch if the girl didn’t look like Sylvester Stallone.     … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Jugue en PS4 y le platiné (sufriendo), para poder analizarlo mejor. Al poco tiempo de iniciar el juego, este se volvió tedioso y aburrido, el tiempo solo se alargaba y el final se veía más lejano, por eso, o terminas jugando por hacer valer tu dinero o eliminandolo.
    Sobre la jugabilidad, es la misma que en el primer juego, con un par de novedades insignificantes como el uso de las cuerdas, el uso del caballo en unas partes del juego o el uso de la guitarra.
    Sobre la banda sonora, el juego brilla por su ausencia, se escuda ridículamente en Future Days de Pearl Jam (que suena como 3 veces en el juego) y Take On Me de a-ha. Por ahí se logra distinguir un par de veces una canción similar al del anterior juego, pero en cortos lapsos de tiempo.
    Sobre la historia, fue pésimamente ejecutada, al inicio la historia se basa en muchas casualidades, tantas que pierde realismo o, al menos, credibilidad. Ocurre que JUSTO Joel hace esto y JUSTO tal persona lo encuentra y JUSTO luego ocurre tal cosa y ahi JUSTO Ellie se hallaba por ahí. Además de que los personajes pierden su esencia, Tommy y Joel de ser expertos contrabandistas y sobrevivientes, se reducen a ingenuos e inocentes, lo que produce que terminen (inconcientemente) en la boca del lobo. Además que, al parecer, según el juego, solo hay un Joel en el mundo. Ya que, los hechos se dan luego de que Abby escucha el nombre Joel, sin considerar que podría ser otro. Luego, está la villanía de Ellie y la imposición de Abby al jugador, y es que ND convirtió a una joven aparentemente lista y calculadora en alguien realmente estúpida (cegada por la ira y el capricho), inoportuna y sin sentido para construir y desarrollar a una nueva (Abby) que, habiendolo perdido todo, es más valiente, por momentos más humana y que tiene un futuro más allá de la venganza. Todo esto demostrado (forzadamente) en los hechos del juego, como cuando Ellie pierde el control de las situaciones, simplemente por estupidez, las cuales terminan en las innecesarias y crueles muertes de Owen y la embarazada Mel en el acuario y en el pequeño (y fallido) escape de Norah en el hospital. Sin embargo, demuestran con otras escenas que Abby es más humana, "buena" e inteligente como en las escenas con los perros, cuando deja vivir por segunda vez a Ellie, a pesar de su enojo, y cuando se desvía de sus labores para ayudar a Lev y Yara. Por otro lado, se observa un innecesario énfasis en las orientaciones sexuales de los personajes como en las escenas entre Dina y Ellie y algunos diálogos con Lev (Alice). Esto puede resultar insultante para un jugador conservador o religioso, ya que, o estás totalmente de acuerdo con el colectivo LGTBQ o recibirás un escupitajo descarado por parte de ND con este juego.
    Finalmente, el juego cierra de la manera más absurda posible, retomando forzosamente la venganza de Ellie, lo cual era necesario ya que de otra forma el juego no tendría desenlace. Para que, nuevamente, JUSTO al final Ellie tome un poco de consciencia, decida romper el ciclo de venganza y deje ir a Abby, habiendo destrozado ya su mundo. Quedan Abby como un personaje redimido y con futuro y Ellie como un personaje en decadencia y fracasado, de manera que ND destruyó a su personaje principal.
    En resumen, es un juego incompleto con partes absurdas, demasiado forzadas e incoherentes. ND se burló de su público, con los trailers engañosos, la inserción forzosa de Abby, los comentarios soberbios de Neil Druckmann y los reviews engañosos de la mayoría de revistas y críticos. En conclusión, el juego traiciona a la anterior entrega y a la base de su éxito y muchos jugadores caen, inexplicablemente, ante el hype que levanto el juego antes de su lanzamiento. No merece el GOTY ni los puntajes perfectos, habiendo juegos más esenciales que este prescindible.    … Expand

    Its sad that people who didn't even play the game put on a rating and ruin the chance that others will even try it out. Also the game itself IS NOT BAD there are just a lot of unsatisfactual events that happen, its a rollercoaster of emotions and sometimes it makes you feel like sh** but the game itself is amazing so DO NOT trust the ratings, try it out for yourself you will not regret it

Игра стала намного менее очевидной и однозначной, а также повысила градус мрачности до предела. Для многих это оказалось перебором: большинство людей, неискушенных лучшими авторскими драмами оказались не готовы к тому, что сиквел The Last of Us будет столь беспощадным к игроку. Опустошение, депрессия и практически полное отсутствие светлых моментов явно дают понять, что Нил Дракманн не старался угодить всем игрокам.… 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... You will witness the boundaries of gaming expand. You will witness a true masterpiece.
