    The game is worth trying to play it at least. Don't believe the couch critics who "passed" the game on Youtube.

When you pass , think about it for a couple of days. I did not immediately realize that this game is the best in the past few years.… Expand

    This game raises the bar for the entire industry for its phenomenal storytelling. Having completed my second playthrough I can say with confidence that this game truly is a masterpiece.

    People give this game a lot of slack, but I have to say I really enjoyed it. In fact, I enjoyed it way better than the first. As depressing as this story was, it shows you how crooked humanity is.. Humans being the core problem, even more than the virus and enemies itself.

In fact, I enjoyed it way better than the first. As depressing as this story was, it shows you how crooked humanity is.. Humans being the core problem, even more than the virus and enemies itself. If the world really had a disaster such as this, I genuinely believe this would be the outcome. Humans killing each other off one by one, battling for power, not having empathy, and not caring who they destroyed in their path.

    I haven't played a game as immersive as this since the last of us 1. This game took me on a roller coaster of emotions. From shouting at the tv, to crying like a baby. With gaming being centered around paywalls and microtransactions, I can really appreciate the effort that was put into creating this. The story from start to ending, I loved, as frustrating of an experience as it was. Bravo to Naughty Dog    … Expand

    If you liked the first game, you will like this one (with the 2 points I said at the start), if you didn't like the first game, there is no reason for you to like this one. The game still a game about love and humanity, open your mind and you definately will enjoy it.    … Expand

    The game is phenomenal. Bought it digitally on launch and loved it from start to finish. Most of the hate I've seen online seems to be coming from incels and misogynists.

    Stealth game play is wonderfully fluid and the graphics were nerdgasmic on my OLED. Never seen a game look so good, even on my gaming PC. Truly a technical marvel.

    PS4’s swan song and one of the best games ever made IMO. The atmosphere, tension, narrative and attention to detail is one that is rarely seen in video games. I can understand that some story points might not resonate with everyone but I thought it was amazing. Can’t wait to play this on 4K (hopefully 60 fps) on the PS5. Thank you Naughty Dog.

But one.of the deaths caused by Joe on the first game did always strike me as very absurd and gratuitous, something unnecessary that harmed humanity more than getting Ellie out of the building. This didn't made me dislike Joe, but made me question his decisions. Having this decision to bear such dramatic consequences on the second game was one of the marks that made LOU2 a more mature and deep game than the first one. The first was like a road movie with less definite villains, the second like a revenge movie with hateful villains. LOU2 made the players understand that everybody had unacceptable losses in a destroyed world with a broken society where the strongest and first to attack had, most of the times, higher chances to keep on going with their lives. In the end, Joe didn't have to die, but also didn't have to kill a skilled doctor in a world without even unskilled doctors to begin with. That doctor could still work on a cure without Ellie, and no revenge would be needed, and no new revenge would come after the first. But, then, we wouldn't have a game to play and talk about. In the end, LOU2 is mature, have an engaging story, and characters that you first have to make an effort not to hate, then you learn to forgive when you empathize with their losses, and then you learn to care about and root for them. On both sides. Not everything is perfect, of course, but the game didn't deserve the review bombing it took. I bought it on pre-sale, something that I rarely do, and probably got the best value I had from a pre-sale game in my entire run with the PS4 and Xbox, since I have both platforms. Highly recommended a completely enjoyable is you're willing to play it with maturity and empathy for all characters.… Expand

    Fantastic game! I played around 23 hours and as a huge fan that completed the last of us part 1 I was like "maybe a 6/7 out of 10" and that was mostly because I felt the story was drawn out and Long. Because the attention to details are so impressive that event though Combat hasnt changed that much IT feels so much fluid and intuative. But things made sense in the end.

    Definitely don't think all games need to be this dark, but I wouldn't mind if more examined the mental consequences of killing.

    Easily one of the best games of the year. And of the generation.    … Expand

    Excellent game. For me, best game I've ever played (but I know this part about "best" is related to opinion).

    But about the game, is amazing. The story, the mixed feelings, the emotions, the tension and the relaxing moments. Also, very good attention to details, colours, shadows and every technical stuff. Of course there are bugs, as any big software has. You can argument if it is    Excellent game.

    You can argument if it is above expectations or masterpiece, but there ir no way it is a 0-to-6 score. All those low notes is only biased by appartment-boys that's only Marvel's fan where everything is predictable, where revenge is successful and men are the heroes. And of course, happy endings.

    ! Soundtrack - I listen to it separately from the game and even when I write this review, it was the same with the soundtrack from the first part.

    A interactive misery simulator that holds up to the previous title, and then breaks through the barriers of current AAA games. Only to be review bombed by people that never experienced the full game. A testiment to the future of storytelling and what video games strive to be.

    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]
