Sadly, the whole community is rating low this games for the first couple hours and the last couple minutes, but everything in the middle matters, a lot.

    Я остался довелен игрой во всем, для меня она стала отличным продолжение первой части и закончила историю Элли и Джоэла

    Great game in general, I think the unpleasant aspect of it was playing as the main "villain" character but you get used to it and even empathize with both sides ot the story. It doesn't deserve all the hate it's getting, c'mon guys. 8/10 all in all, great music by Gustavo Santaolalla, improved game-play and awesome graphics for a console game.

    You have to be seriously biased or dishonest to give this game a rating of 0. A rating you would give to games full of bugs, with outdated graphics and a horrible gameplay. TLOU2 is the exact opposite of that. People have forgotten they were playing a game... but of course since half of the people who rated badly this game have only watched it on a stream, that explains a lot...

    One of the best games I have ever played. Probably the best story in a game yet. The original is a pretty bland story told perfectly, but this is a much more emotionally and structurally complex game. A game has never made me feel such deep emotions. If you didn’t like the story I recommend you try again, and at least try to empathize and care about Abby. The world building immerses you soOne of the best games I have ever played.

A game has never made me feel such deep emotions. If you didn’t like the story I recommend you try again, and at least try to empathize and care about Abby. The world building immerses you so far into this amazing world Naughty Dog has created. This is also one of the most technically impressive games to date. It’s insane how good this game looks on 7 year old hardware. The game-play is also amazing. ND took the pretty good gameplay from the first, and improved on some of the worst elements. Overall, this is an incredible game. Even if it's incredible divisive, they knocked it out of the park for people like me.… Expand

As a last of us fan I have to say I am deeply dissapointed.First of all,the way Joel got picked off in the beginning is just insane to me!I absolutely loved Joel and I couldn't wait to buy the game to see my favourite character again and how he evolved.He evolved...just backwards.The gameplay in general is just not as fun as it used to be.The AI is just more dumb than it was in tlou 1.There was almost nothing new brought to the table except for the big infected at ground zero.Don't even get me started with the ending!One of the worst endings I've ever seen!It just left a sour taste in my mouth.After Abby killed Joel not only do you not get to kill her but they make you play as her for a long time?!??!!Who thought this was a good idea????I've never been more hyped for a new game and for the game to dissapoint me this much is just insane.Save your money and don't buy the game.You're better off without the knowledge of last of us part 2.If you played the last of us 1 just let it stay like that,you will enjoy yourself more that way.This is just such a dissapointment I cannot even describe it.The ending is what made it all worse.Such an unsatisfying end.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Obra maestra, los gráficos son de otro mundo, la jugabilidad es excelente, el ambiente, la banda sonora, etc, hacen que sea una experiencia súper memorable. Los personajes son super reales, no hay ningún héroe, todos son personas y pueden morir en cualquier momento, dado un punto de la historia ya nadie es buena persona, pero podes empatizar con todos. Tiene una historia que te atrapa y si sos sensible este juego no es para vos; es "controversial", personajes lgbt, los cuales son criticados por ninguna razón, como si una persona no pudiese tener otra sexualidad que no fuese heterosexual, como si un director no pudiese desarrollar un personaje hasta ese punto. Admito que tiene fallos en la historia (y no hablo de la muerte de joel porque en mi opinión era necesario y si le pones un 0 a este juego porque no querías que joel muera honestamente no deberías ser capaz de votar en tu país xd). Ya estoy hablando solo de lo malo, el final pudo haber sido mejor aunque me satisface, y por eso le doy un 9 y no un 10, el juego no es un fan service para que los fanáticos de este juego se pongan contentos, por eso es el lo que es, por eso tiene estas reseñas asquerosas, la gente compró el juego para un fan service con joel como el héroe pero se encontraron con que no es inmortal y que es un personaje súper real. Esta es mi sincera opinión sobre mi juego favorito :D… Expand

    If you’re someone who feels entitled to a story because you payed 15 - 60 bucks for a game and liked it, then don’t play this game.
    If you’re a homophobic bigot who “doesnt want politics in his game” then dont play this game.
    If you read the leaks and didnt like what you read, actually play this game because playing it is not the same as reading it. If you like a rollercoaster story,    If you’re someone who feels entitled to a story because you payed 15 - 60 bucks for a game and liked it, then don’t play this game.

Making you play as Abby to create empathy did not work. Made more displeased. They really try to push you to like it, but FAILED.

    This is an awesome game. Gameplay wise it is much better than the first game in terms of mechanics, balance, enemy and weapon variety etc. Level design is a huge achievement for Naughty Dog, they jumped very high in this one, maybe even too high.

There is a lot things you may say about the gameplay, but for some reason most of the people don't and they don't seem to care so let's go straight to the story.
    The story is great. People who say about plotholes or smth didn't pay much attention during their playthrough, pretty much everything is explained, even things you might not care about. The storytelling sets a new mark for cinematic videogames, I'd even say that not every movie achieved so much in terms of cinema language. The story is told with the rule - show, don't tell. Pretty much every action and character motivation is shown and not told to you verbally, so you have to think and try to understand the characters by paying attention to all the things they say and do, all the flashbacks shown to you etc. Many people weren't prepared for this, especially after the first game which was pretty easy to understand. Actors in this game play their roles flawlessly and every cinema aspect from camera angles to dialogues is made beautifully. Also story structure is very nonstandard not only for a videogame but for a movie too, but I won't spoil anything, you should play the game for yourself. I give it 10 out 10 because it was one of the most unique experiences I've had in videogames. I tried to not spoil anything so you would get the whole experience for yourself because this game deserves it.    … Expand

The gameplay didn't really improve that much and the mechanics of some things were awful. The graphics and the musical score is the only thing that stands tall at the end of the day. And last but not least important, replayability. This game has zero replayability and there's no reason that you would want to play this game again. 0/10 would not play again. NEVER.… Expand

    The concept of this game should not work when you explain it to someone. Breaking down to the simplest explaination you would have to be crazy to think anyone could like it.

    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]
