    Best game i have ever played! First game made me cry! I have never feel like that

    The first game honestly first time playing through was life changing and I have loved the game ever since. I have been non stop thinking about the release of the second game and honestly it did not disappoint. I loved it all the way through and once again the game made me feel something I don’t feel often.

    A harrowing, emotional experience. Raises the bar for story telling and gameplay. The art direction, animation, cinematography and graphical fidelity are unsurpassed in the industry. A must play for anyone calling themselves a gamer, or anyone ready for a pure no excuses style story about redemption, heartache and the horrors of revenge, violence and PTSD.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This franchise has set a new standard for me in the future of gaming. No movie nor game has made me feel the way this game has. The exploration on each minute character tells their own story and you get to see that. Whether you're reading a note from a broken family or hearing your enemies scream in anguish as their closest friends since the outbreak just got slashed to death. To having to survive and killing any human, animal or infected to survive, you can really immersive yourself in it. The fluidity of the combat and the agility of your character is something I greatly valued in this game. The new ways of surviving and utilising the equipment you have at your disposal is very refreshing and strategic too. I couldn't of wanted more in a game, and I am keen to see where things go from here. Expand

    Game and graphics is just one of the best things I've ever seen In my life (and I'm a Pc player), you can kill an enemy and watch his face while you're staving a knife over him (THAT kind of detail).

    About the plot, I didn't care too much about what people said that game is just made to make LGTBI happy and all that.... you don't really care too much about that when you are enjoying
    Game and graphics is just one of the best things I've ever seen In my life (and I'm a Pc player), you can kill an enemy and watch his face while you're staving a knife over him (THAT kind of detail).

    About the plot, I didn't care too much about what people said that game is just made to make LGTBI happy and all that.... you don't really care too much about that when you are enjoying yourself killing and surviving with Ellie or even Abby. Story is very well written but is an adult and kind of sad story (as one of the best movies you've seen)... Naugthy Dog made one of a hell violent game but with a price... so they decided to make players think about deep stuff as revenge... or losing someone special.

    10/10 for me , Ellie is one of the most human characters you can find out there.
    And if you don't like the plot it's still lot of fun to play

    A worthy successor to one of the best games ever made. I kept myself totally spoiler free and it was my most memorable gaming experience since part one. It’s a very rough ride, but well worth seeing to the end. It’s a mature game and I would not recommend it to anyone underage.

    Anyway, highly recommended to give this an honest chance!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the best stories I’ve ever played. Gameplay is fun too. I feel for those who are upset about an important character’s death, but think the story rides that death so well to make an amazing game. Getting to see the reality that “the bad guy” (Abby) is facing through playing as her really blew my mind. I’ve never played a game that did something like this. I obviously was a little upset with playing as Abby at first, but I learned that she was a human too living through her own experiences with love and loss. In the fights between Abby and Ellie I really couldn’t choose a side, and at the end when I was tapping square to stab Abby I had a hard time doing it. It’s all quite bleak, but an interesting look at the reality of humans and their quests for vengeance. I respect the opinions of people hating on this game, but If the queer themes get to you I recommend trying to be more empathetic. If these themes ruin the game for you you’re probably a bigot who can’t look past people loving each other or being who they want to be. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Juego magnífico, tanto por sus gráficos, jugabilidad, personajes de historia. Lamento mucho el odio generado, creo que esta gente no sabe que pueden hacer mucho daño a otros. Tanto por los comentarios homófobos, tránsfobo y Anti-semita. Es genial que te guste personaje pero decir tal barbaridad no tiene justificación
    Por suerte pude disfrutar el juego sin spoiler y tener ideas ya en la cabeza y poder sentirlo por mí misma. Lo dicho, todas las opiniones son respetables pero dar notas tan bajas reconocer que no es realista, simplemente pataleta.

The story is completely understandable, the world in which the characters live is totally **** up. The choices they face every day are so extreme to us that they evoke extreme feelings. My grandfather was a veteran of World War II, he told me various stories without details. This game like no other shows that the order of the world in which we now live is very fragile. The current situation in the world shows that we cannot appreciate what we have. The message of this game is: dialogue, compassion and forgiveness. Expand

    the game is brilliant because it shows impartially all that cruelty and genuine feelings of the world of last of us !!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is the best-designed storyline of all the games that I played. I have not experienced such emotions and sensations from games before. Each protagonist and all their connections are revealed as much as possible. Experiencing each main character. The authors raised the theme of the circle of cruelty of malice and hatred. The outcome of the story is very realistic, it is not always possible to get rid of the void after loss. The main thing is not to stop and will learn to let go and put up with these losses.
    First of all, for me, this is the best game for its plot, authorship and graphics. Authors can start creating serious scripts for films!

Tlou2 desarrolla ese gameplay exquisito y aunque es un tanto repetitivo, nos ofrece muchas horas de eso que tanto nos gustó en la primera parte. Su historia, si no te gusta, pues se convierten en una excusa (como en la mayoría de los juegos) para disfruta del juego, y si te gusta mejor, lo convierte en una obra maestra.

    En mi caso, el gameplay me pareció impresionante, y técnicamente altísimo, la historia pudo ser de otra forma, no es mala, solo no es lo que hubiesemos esperado, pero es arriesgada, diferente, novedosa e impredecible. Bien vale la pena pasar por esta experiencia, que aunque puede ser decepcionante y desagradable, es única en lo que transmite y plantea, y eso bien vale el dinero y el tiempo.

If you go into this game with story/character expectations, then you will be disappointed. This IS NOT The Last of Us 1.5, this is an entirely new, more realistic, more human, game. Go into this game

    I will focus on the story. If you go into this game with story/character expectations, then you will be disappointed. This IS NOT The Last of Us 1.5, this is an entirely new, more realistic, more human, game. Go into this game with an open mind, and it will stay with you for a LONG time afterwards. Characters you hate at the start (one in particular) are so well developed that you understand, if not like them, by the end. The same happens for the hero characters, you will disagree with their actions throughout the game, and your opinion on them will be changed, because they are painted as real humans, making real human decisions, some good and some bad. The game is made up of morally grey characters, unlike most games made up of black and white characters.

    All the above isn't just good or bad writing, but excellent writing. The story is fantastic, gut wrenching, spellbinding, and most importantly real - or as much real as it can be in a post-apoc setting.

    People are calling this game of the year, I'm calling it game of the generation.

    the gameplay is quite similar to the first game with slight improvement and all new mechanics, making it quite fun to play. The story is also great, it does a great job of immersing the player into the role of Ellie. I do understand why a lot of people are mad, but if you want to appreciate the game you've got to actually open your eyes to the story. overall its a great game

    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]
