    A worthy, but disgusting follow-up on the first game. I loved it from start to beginning.

    I have just finished the game and I cannot put into words what I'm feeling. This has been such an intense and awesome adventure, with very much to say about the things we do for love, which may not be correct all the time. If I say anything else I would be spoiling, but this game raised the bar for the upcoming games and generations. Thanks Naughty Dog for this masterpiece.

    Все плюсы великолепной технической и звуковой задумки The Last Of Us Part II, полностью нивелируются абсолютно ненужной историей, которую решил продолжить режиссёр и сценарист The Last Of Us, Нил Дракманн. 8.5/10

    One of the best games that ever created. The gameplay is just great and addictive. I loved the story and I think that’s better than the first one. The graphics are arguably the best that we’ve ever seen on PS4 and the sound’s amazing. Also Gustavo Santaolalla and MAC Quayle made a magnificent soundtrack that fits perfectly well in the game.

    Never have I played a game that has moved me so emotionally as this one. I have felt anger, discomfort, excitement, fear, empathy, sorrow and all the while, enjoying every second of it.

    Before I pre-ordered this game, I was quite concerned by what people were talking about the story. So I made the tough decision of reading the leaks and finding out what happened.

    Before I pre-ordered this game, I was quite concerned by what people were talking about the story. So I made the tough decision of reading the leaks and finding out what happened. Once I got that out of the way, I went ahead and got the game on release. I started playing it with very critical eyes. I was prepared to hate the characters and the direction. Instead, I was disarmed and won over, a couple hours in. The performances and writing was masterful. I was instantly enthralled by the world I was thrown into. I had a lot of reservations about Abbey, until the last 10 hours of the game. I was pleasantly surprised by how it manages to shift your opinion of a woman who you are geared up for hating. A character that from the very beginning, is seen as a villain. You feel like a pendulum of emotions, as the game grinds to it's very emotional finale. I felt my own morale compass being put into question, as I felt guilty for siding with one character to the next. It was the kind of inward thinking that no game has ever evoked in me. And it's because of this, it's an undeniable masterpiece.

    This game without a doubt, has the most intense and exciting gameplay I've ever enjoyed. It manages to make you feel vulnerable and powerless, while giving you about a hundred different ways to kill enemies. When you get a killing streak, with near perfect flow, it can be the most satisfying thing. It reminds me of Hotline Miami and the brutal, fast paced decisions you have to make, while running through an arena of enemies. The crafting and looting are almost identical to the first game, with a bit more depth. I have to admit, looting is not my favourite thing to do in any game, but it feels necessary in this case.

    I've played a lot of games through out the years and this one will probably stick with me for a long time. It's easily one of the best games I've ever played and I can't wait to jump back in for a second play though. My advice is to play this game, knowing as little as possible about it. Ignore the haters and enjoy this game for what it is! The PS4 was made for this game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First I will say if you enjoyed the gameplay from the first last of us game then it’s more of the same here. The game has about the best graphics on ps4 next to red dead redemption 2. The gunplay is fast paced and the enemy AI is more smart than last game unless you mess with the accessibility options, the use of the new skill trees are interesting slightly but it’s more of the same as last game you collect supplements for upgrades for both abby and Ellie. So if you enjoyed the last of us 1 gameplay then you will enjoy the gameplay the enemies or infected are a little more intimidating. Where the game goes wrong is it’s story they try to force you to like a character that just is not an enjoyable character not because of the muscles or anything but because they went about the story in the wrong way. I think that if they would have been better off at the very least putting the story in a different order and also gave you a choice at The end of the game but all the characters were so out of character. Joel and Tommy would not have done what they done no matter what they pretty much told abby and her group everything but their blood type. This is where the story fails I had a hard time even finishing the game I played for a good 30 hours and uninstalled the game twice and am trying to trudge the A second play through just for trophies but it’s probably my least favorite naughty dog game of all time.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bueno, lo que opino sobre el juego es que es una Obra Maestra, primeramente voy a hablar de las gráficas, jugabilidad, los puzzles, y otras cosas más. Este juego tiene las mismas mecánicas que su antecesor The Last of Us, por lo que si te gustaron las del primer juego estas te van a encantar aún más, los movimientos son realistas, el como reacciona Ellie a cada golpe, situación, es bastante bueno y natural, la manera en como podemos buscar suplementos para poder sobrevivir es genial, no lo sientes pesado ni repetitivo, en las dificultades más difíciles (Sobreviviente +) se nota el como los NPCs aumentan su inteligencia, te escuchan más fácil y logran verte desde más lejos, no llegan a fallar balas y quitan demasiada vida, por lo que este juego logra hacerte sufrir por ahorrar suministros y municiones, logrando que uses tu lado estratégico, los infectados se ven mucho mejor, tienen muy buen detalle al mirarlos con la mira del rifle de caza, son más resistentes y difíciles. en los ambientes tranquilos la exploración no llega a enfadar, es más resolver acertijos para obtener suplementos y piezas además de munición y recolectables, le da un giro a la acción del juego para que veas que no todo son guerras entre bandos e infectados. La mejora de armas es mucho mejor, muestra lo que hace en cada arma, desde limpiarla para disparar más rápido, hasta añadir piezas para mejorar su daño, el como al recoger munición no se lleva el arma sino que solo le retira las balas. UFF chulada de juego en Mecánicas. Bueno pasemos a la historia.

    HISTORIA

    La verdad la historia de este juego me hizo sentir tantas emociones que el primer juego no logro, el que tengan una vida segura en Jackson me diice que aún en tiempos feos, puede haber paz, amor, compañerísmo, sociedades, entre otras cosas. Bueno vamos a lo pesado, el que hayan asesinado a Joel (Protaginista del primer juego) de una manera tan poco heroica y de manera brutal, me hace pensar que en ese mundo no hay sobrehumanos ni héroes que no se puedan asesinar como a cualquier otra persona, el que Abby (antagonísta de The Last Of Us Part ll) haya encontrado a Joel y lo asesinara de forma tan brutal con un palo de Golf, nos dio muchísima rabia, pero esto era necesario para querer seguir con la historia, saber que va a pasar después. En lo personal, la muerte de Joel se me hizo muy bien planteada y es como el fósforo que encendió la mecha. Al principio nos puede dar rabia y tristeza, pero conforme lo vayas pensando y vuelvas a pasar el juego entenderás que es una muerte necesaria. el juego con Abby la verdad es que me pareció bastante interesante ya que nos dan su punto de vista y nos explica el por qué asesinó a Joel de una manera ta brutal y sin piedad, el gameplay con Abby es bueno, de hecho creo que tiene más acción que con Ellie, en lo personal me gustó más la forma de ser de Abby, es más alegre y empatiza más con las personas o sus compañeros,luego está la parte de la pelea con Ellie siendo Abby, sinceramente la primera vez que supe que tenía que casi matar a Ellie me dieron ganas de vomitar, ansiedad, enojo, y tristeza, quería dejar de jugar ese día, no me lo podía creer, pero dicho lo anterior, creo que ese era el objetivo del juego, hacerte sentir emociones que ningún otro juego te hace sentir (En mi opinión). Lo único que le quitaría son las horas de juego con Abby. y bueno el final, sé que después de lo que Ellie recorrió para volver a encontrar a Abby, las personas que asesinó y lo que sufrió, es demasiado para dejar con vida a Abby, pero creo que el Flashback que tiene justo antes de ahogar a Abby de Joel tocando la guitarra le recordó a un Flashback que sucede un momento después en la historia y creo yo que hacía referencia a este, que es después de la pelea en la cantina, se encuentra Joel tocando la guitarra y llega Ellie para hablar de lo sucedido, Ellie saca a flote el tema de Los Luciérnaga, renegando de por qué él no dejó que ella fuera la cura para todo el mundo, así su vid podía llegar a tener imporancia, a lo que Joel responde que s tuviera otra oportunidad de cambiar las cosas, volvería a hacer lo mismo, en ese momento Ellie le dice: "No creo poder perdonarte por eso, aunque me gustaría". Esas palabras son las que creo yo recordó con el primer Flashback de Joel tocando la guitarra y lo aplicó a Abby, no puedo creer lo que hiciste, pero te perdono :´( Por eso Ellie la deja con vida y deja que se marche, aprendió a perdonar. Lo más triste que pasó en todo el juego no es la muerte de Joel, sino que es cuando Ellie pierde todo lo que amaba, perdió a Dina y JJ, perdió la posibilidad de tocar lo que ella más amaba, la guitarra, y quedó totalmente sola, algo a lo que ella le tenía miedo. Pero resultado de esto, llegó una Ellie más madura. En pocas palabras y porque ya llegué a los 5000. JUEGAZO¡¡¡¡    … Expand

    This game has made me feel things that no game has ever made me feel before. The story dragged me in and its emotional impact still lingers after having finished it over a week ago, what a ride.

    It is however not a perfect game. In my opinion the game is a bit too long. Not because of the story, but because of the gameplay. The gameplay hasn't changed too much from the first game and    This game has made me feel things that no game has ever made me feel before. The story dragged me in and its emotional impact still lingers after having finished it over a week ago, what a ride.

    It is however not a perfect game. In my opinion the game is a bit too long. Not because of the story, but because of the gameplay. The gameplay hasn't changed too much from the first game and while the fighting sequences (which gameplay-wise have received the biggest upgrade compared to the first game) are an absolute blast, the mechanics of finding supplies, upgrading your weapons and your character are dated and get old quite quickly, I was done with these things about halfway through the game. You will find yourself going through each room, opening each drawer, each locker to find supplies or pills. These are currencies which you spend in order to upgrade your load-out or skills or craft weapons. The skill tree doesn't make much sense and the weapon upgrades are unexciting too. Half of the time I didn't know what to upgrade and wasn't really excited to upgrade a weapon. I wish they had innovated more in these aspects of the game as that would have lifted the experience to a higher level again.

    My main point of criticism out of the way, the graphics, animation and visuals are absolutely amazing and all combined are probably the best I have ever seen in a game. The sound is equally great, the music excellent. The acting and the way characters are made alive blew my mind over and over. I just cannot get over how great all these aspects of the game are.

    In conclusion: While all other aspects of the game are pretty much a 10/10, for me it is somewhat lacking in gameplay which unfortunately lowers my score for the game a bit. All in all this game is a masterfully crafted piece of art and one that will be in my mind for a long time to come. I'm incredibly thankful for everyone involved to have made this game, for me it has been an unforgettable experience.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In my Opinion a story game needs to be able to trigger feeling to be of high value, same with movies. Part 1 was able to do it and part 2 is at least as good as part 1 in doing it (in my opinion). The plot of Part 2 is almost completely filled with sad events whats probably one cause why people are upset about the game. Especially Ellie gets confronted with these events and the end of the game gives no relieve (No Happy End). Additionally there is a second character the player gets to play that is completely new to the last of us and was never seen in part 1. But in the end the game tells a beautiful story and shows the actions of Ellie and Joel out of a completely new perspective.… Expand

The gameplay is slick and has so many accessibility options that it meets the needs of anyone who wants to play. It more than lived up to my high expectations, it broke my heart, it terrified me, and I loved it.

    Naughty Dog has for the most part succeeded in the difficulty of making a compelling sequel. Their use of psychology throughout the intertwined narrative of both Ellie and Abby cannot be passed off as “lazy writing”. To make the player walk 5 miles in the shoes of the villain Abby after you as Ellie have wreaked revenge soaked havoc on her friends and faction for the death of Joel isn’t something I’ve experienced in gaming. It’s clever and effective. By the end of a 25-30 hour campaign, you have 2 characters on opposing sides of the same coin in a story that deals with not just revenge but the morality of right and wrong and the effects of action and consequence.
    The motion capture is fantastic, the Ellie and Joel flash back scenes are beautiful. New characters are charming but be warned, this is not a story for the faint of heart. Emotions will be tested, your heart will be pulled out whilst you get kicked in the guts.
    Gameplay- not much new in terms of innovation but a more effective jump button allows for some new traversal options as well as squeezing through gaps to make those encounters a little more exciting.
    Prone position has been added which can give players a tactical edge.
    A plentiful arsenal. Both players have a well balanced array of weapons to master.
    Upgrades system has been simplified and crafting and scavenging remain a key component.
    Environments are very detailed and beautiful to look at. There’s the photo mode if you are so inclined.
    New game plus.
    Array of difficulty settings for those inclined to punish themselves.
    Accessibility options are huge for players, I have seen visual and audio adaptation demos. I know that these settings are something that the disabled gamers have praised.

    I can see why this game has had some negative scores, yes it’s a hard pill to swallow. Yes Joel is killed early on. Yes Abby’s character model can be distracting at first, you need to suck it up and follow the story, get into it, listen and feel. It’s the only way the game will have meaning. Expectations will be subverted. I hated that phrase on Star Wars last Jedi, which I’m still not happy with but it does work here.
    If part 3 is made I will give this a 9. I wasn’t 100 percent satisfied with the ending. I would have liked a little more on what the future held for Ellie.    … 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.
