    I give it an 8/10 because of the gameplay, graphics and sometimes the story is good,but not the ending and flashbacks. It doesnt deserve a 0,if you have played you know it,but neither a 10 that professional critic gives it.

    Everyone who sets 0 or 3 point, this people just never played this game even not saw walkthrough. So just play and you’ll understand that it’s a great game. And yeah Ellie has been a lesbian since 2013 when even all of this don’t starting yet.

The gameplay is extremely intense which makes you think about every single encounter and how to get the best result, playing this game on hard or above really increases your immersion into the world and makes you extremely focused on the task. Sometimes this becomes extremely noteworthy as foe and foe keep appearing, defeating them makes you feel like you can breathe again until you come across another around a corner. The score contributes to this immersion with the sound effects of you getting caught upping the risk and once again thinking about how you encounter everything. Only things I don’t like about this game is some of the character interactions with Ellie and Dina being extremely forced and someone times the story makes turns when someone is about to climax which makes me feel disappointed like **** I just want to see what happens but no now I have to do all this other **** Anyways great game great story and **** the haters… Expand

    My score of 10 is a protest against all the ones and zeroes given by clueless people that don't know how proper rating is done. Just because your favourite character was killed you rate it 0? Seriously? I would actually rate this game at 7 or 8. Joel is not a hero as many seem to think. He went against Ellies will to create a cure for the humanity. He doomed the whole civilization to live with this horrible infection. He killed so many people in his way for his own selfish reasons.

    The bad

    The story is of course the main disapointment. It seems too stretched, especially at the end. It wen't quite well actually until the game started switching from Ellie to Abby and different timelines. It was very confusing and hard to follow. Ellies part was quite good mostly but I think that Joel's death shouldn't be at the beginning of the game. Abby's part felt especially full of unnecessarily slow gameplay (if you can call walking around a gameplay).

    The good

    I played on hard difficulty and the game seemed balaced. The resources were scarse but I always had just enough to get me through different situations. AI seemed quite clever as well. Constantly flanking and without obvious patrolling patterns forcing you to move around and look for ways to use the environment to your advantage.

    Same as part one, guns feel heavy and powerful but my favourite is close combat. Can't think of any other game that does it so well. Every hit feels heavy and bone breaking. Different kill scenes depending from the environment is a cherry on top.

    Graphics are great. I played PS5's improved version but even on the good old PS4 it looks amazing. It honestly looks like magic to make a severly outdated PS4 hardware draw such beautiful high fidelity scenes. Attention to detail of the world and random small talk as you explore comes as a final polish. Technically the game feels finished. I didn't encounter a single bug during my two playthroughs. Unfortunately this seems quite rare in todays market to release a game without a regular patches afterwards that are meant to fix the game breaking bugs.

    Conclusion

    TLOU suffers mostly from the success of it's previous part and extremely high expectations of gamers. Of course many story related developer decisions raise questions however other aspects of the game were executed very well.

    PS

    Sorry for the bad grammar. I was too lazy to fix it.    … Expand

    Most disappointing sequels to one the most beloved games of the last decade. Despite the wonderful performances by Ashley Johnson, Troy Baker, and others, amazing graphics, mesmerizing game-play and world, all this can't save the game from the fundamental flaws of the story and writing.

    I loved this game so freaking much! Honestly, I was not expecting such an interesting story and amazing plots... TLOU2 was a surprise for me, and I had a great time knowing the new characters and playing with Abby.

    Seriously, don't mind with the haters, they're just a bunch of weebs. TLOU2 is a masterpiece, such as the first game was.

    The good:
    Gameplay excluding the auto-aim.
    Music
    Voice acting

    The bad:

    You think you will continue with joel or elly right ? Nope. You ll play half of the game one of the villian characters. You never understand why the story is detoriated like this. L2 is 10/10 first 2_3 hours but when the main character change it is meaningless to play. Dont waste yor money for 3 hourzs game

    Absolute phenomenal, masterpiece, superb story. Insanely good play on emotions.
    From anger to love, from hate to heartbreak and tears. Everyone who criticised this game and rated it 1 for Lgbt topics should think twice about their existence because i found one MOMENT when I thought "oh right... I get it... enough". But it didn't affected a whole story...

    Masterpiece!!! 11/10

However the game is heavily scripted and feels one-dimensional. Characters voices are decent but dialog is written by 10y olds and therefore devoid of any charm or drama. There is very little meaningful character development, and story is dull. There is too much focus on scavenging and entering pin codes which needs to be obtained by reading the notes. The first game was essentially a survival combat, but second is all about meaningless scavenging for supplies. I wonder if some people complained about too much violence in the first game so they replaced it with scripted dialog and item pickups. The whole game is about walking along heavily decorated 1D corridor, picking up notes and ammo with occasional shooting and simple platforming. The game map is basically a 1D corridor. Everything is fully scripted, there is almost no need to touch a controller (unless the game needs you to enter to pin code) - it is like watching a movie. The game has more pin code doors and lock boxes than actual enemies. Part 1 was incredible, but part 2 feels like a big let down. I am very disappointed, it could have been so much better. I played all uncharted games (and last of us part 1)- this is the worst game this developer produced. They wasted time of their games developers and players. It could have been so much better.… Expand

    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]
