    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I’ve played both games and love them both! I understand why people are upset but, it’s just a game, and although it’s not the story I wanted, I still loved it and thought it was great. A lot of people who haven’t played the game seem to be against it due to the supposed PC stuff in the game which I didn’t see much of, there was tiny bits of it in the game. Also, Abby is not trans! If that’s the sole reason on hating the game then you need a reality check, women can be muscular too.… Expand

    This game just kept breaking my heart over and over. It’s incredibly sad. It’s brutal. It goes places that almost no stories are willing to go. And even though it hurts, I can’t help but love it. Game play was solid. Graphics were absolutely stunning from the scenery to the characters and their animations. Music captured and conveyed the mood everywhere. Sound design was perfect.

    Não há como não dar 10 pra esse jogo, tudo é perfeito: cenários, personagens, detalhes minuciosos
    A história mexe muito com o jogador e por isso é um ponto forte do jogo, sem dúvidas algo incrível o que a Naughty Dog fez

    The game is awesome. The graphics are the best of this generation and which is absolutely incredible. The story is not as good as the first game but still very immersive. The combat resembles the first game but you have a lot more ammunition to get hid of the enemies. Totally a must play game.

    "Eye for eye and the world will go blind"
    The last of us Part 2 is a masterpiece of Naughty Dog, it's risky and surprising in every detail, the graphic section is one of the best in recent years, excelling with the performances of each character which reach a new level of realism , also from around the world, and the best thing, we have working mirrors, all this accompanied by a brilliant    "Eye for eye and the world will go blind"
    The last of us Part 2 is a masterpiece of Naughty Dog, it's risky and surprising in every detail, the graphic section is one of the best in recent years, excelling with the performances of each character which reach a new level of realism , also from around the world, and the best thing, we have working mirrors, all this accompanied by a brilliant motion capture
    The sound is not far behind, the screaming, the shooting and every sound in the game is surprising and admirable
    The Last of Us was made by its story and narrative, and this sequel is not far behind, delivering one of the best narratives in recent times, an incredible character development that puts us in context of the story and serves to Fond and understand them, and most importantly, humanizes them, I mean that you aren't the typical guy killing a zombies without receiving any damage, in this game, our characters are in constant danger and we see that they can suffer
    The narrative is again the strong point of this sequel, the way of telling the story is so different and so original that, even though at first it may not completely convince you, as you play the only thing you do is understand and put yourself in the shoes who you control
    A thread of events that perhaps if they were told differently, the game would not have worked.
    An ending that leaves you melancholic that even if your heart breaks it is so real to what the thirst for revenge can cause
    The game has some incredible action scenes, photographically speaking it's a visual wonder, the colors and lights are well controlled and go according to the story and the landscapes are beautiful and varied
    All this accompanied by an incredible soundtrack that at times will make you feel melancholic at times and at others that will make you believe that there is still hope in such a world, since the musical themes are like a ring finger in incredible sequences and others dramatic scenes, but the game also knows when not to put anything in the background, as in a fight that is vibrant for EVERYTHING mentioned so far
    Without a doubt a work that will play with your heart and that in the end makes you reflect and gives you a lesson with the main character
    Without a doubt a more than worthy sequel for its predecessor

    SPOILERS
    Without a doubt the only mistake of the game, is the death of Joel, he had to die in a way faithful to his character, I mean, that in the first game He would never have trusted someone he just met regardless of the circumstances, and here he gives him the name within a few minutes, in addition to being one of the best PlayStation characters, they must have made him a farewell, a scene or a monologue of the characters at the end of the game, something like a letter to Ellie talking to her or a scene from him with a good musical background that will bring us one more tear, a scene that I hope to see in a potential third and final installment
    The end of the game where Ellie forgives Abby is a more than convincing solution for this game, just think about it, there are three very clear reasons, the first and is that the cycle of revenge would never have ended, because Lev would go after Ellie, and Dinna would go after Lev in an endless cycle, the second is that Abby forgives Ellie twice and the second time she shouldn't do it, and the third is that he She realizes that she's doing the same things Abby did to Joel
    Many people dom't empathize with Abby because they say that the way he kills Joel is inhumane, it is, but we have to understand that Joel condemned humanity, although of course we still don't know this when he dies and that is why that we hated Abby at the time, but in a world without rules Abby was only taking revenge, or Didn't we enjoy torturing Nora?, because we still don't know why they killed Joel, all this narrative thread is so good because it makes us realize how bad each of us is and that we never put ourselves in the other's situation. We aren't interested in why, but we already act accordingly. One of the best narratives in history
    Even though in the end the fact that Ellie could no longer play the guitar because of losing your fingers is so heartbreaking, it becomes a great example of how the game gives a lesson because this accompanied by the fact that the whole house is empty makes you realize of Ellie's mistake and it's just fascinating how we tell it.
    I would love a DLC of Ellie going to see Dinna because it's something very sad even though it also serves as a lesson that we can lose everything if we become obsessed with something.
    I would love to o see Ellie happy after all of this, since Abby is on the menu.
    A third part is necessary to give a great closure to this great saga, as long as the quality of its games is maintained in addition, a trilogy has always sounded poetic, would be a great way to conclude with one of the best stories that history has given us, not video games, but art in general    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Hate how they deal with the characters not respecting them at all just anyone you start to like or attached to it will die instantly, can't of course talk about Joel's death and how bad it is am not saying that he can't die its reasonable for him to die but not in that way and not in the beginning of the game like this, the story is poor and doesn't make sense at all, letting you play with Abby about 10 hours that character that killed Joel is crazy and letting you fight Ellie and show Ellie as a villain, and an ending that doesn't make any sense and open so that you can make part 3 ???and i hope you don't, the only things that i liked is the graphics and the gameplay and the sounds are done pretty good and the realism in the weapons and i loved the crafting table and how detailed it was loved the face capture of the characters and how they move is really realistic… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I think I was too harsh and closed at first about this game because of the spoilers I heard about one of my favorite characters dying. As well as me having to play as the character who killed him and the story not fully continuing where the first one left off. However, after actually playing it I enjoyed even though it was pulling me around making me mad at some times. Yet, the story was unique, different and I liked it and I was able to actually start to like Abby as time went on. I understand why other people are getting upset about having to get use to new characters. While saying that there are some faults such as some characters do not have good enough character development but that can be over looked. I also feel like the continuity from the first game is a little off but thats fine if you are able to successfully create a new storyline with a theme. Overall I hope they create a part 3 and pick up on Ellie or Abby.… Expand

    Juego muy bueno, personalmente el TLOU 1 esta por encima por la historia pero no significa que esta sea mala. La jugabilidad es practicamente la misma que en el 1 salvo algunos detalles como el esquive, que sea igual no quiere decir que sea mala. Le pongo un 10 para los haters que le ponen notas bajisimas siendo, seguramente, que la mayoria que ni lo jugo.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Okay, let me start by saying as a fan of the original, the mixture of stealth and combat works great alongside the story telling once again. The exploration is a nice added bonus and the game as a whole feels like the Last of Us part 1 but better.

    Now for the reasons I didn't score this higher.

    1. The death of you know who
    2. Forcing me to play as the character who killed you know who
    3. Forcing me to play as that same character multiple times.

And what happens to those whoAs someone who values powerful stories and realistically deep and complicated characters in videogames, above gameplay mechanics, this game is a masterpiece. The mechanics are incredible too, giving you vast amounts of options on dealing with combat. But above all, the story that's being told has to do with overcoming trauma, betrayal, and attempting to heal. And what happens to those who become blinded by vengeance. It's a very realistic journey Ellie goes on, and anytime you deal with this subject matter, sad and frustrating encounters will happen, such as people you care about deeply dying. This is the violent feral world that has been established in the first game, and many people who are upset by these very realistic consequences, aka characters getting hurt or killed, are forgetting the world this game is set in. If you trust Neil Druckman and go along with the story that's being told, crying when s*** gets sad, raging when Ellie is rightly furious, falling in love when things get romantic and playful, it will only be a more powerful gaming experience. That's what is so good about The Last Of Us, how powerful it is, and this sequel knocks it out of the park. Plus it is the most gorgeous game I've ever seen. Please go in open-minded, and trust the storytelling, this game isn't about feeling good and having a rollicking good time, it's about the real human experience of living in the wasteland of the apocalypse told through Ellie's eyes, and they definitely 100% achieve that.… 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.

    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]
