    Amazing game! People are hating the game because of the attachment they have with the characters and I was attached too from the first game, but this is a apocalyptic world and a very real one too. Support the people who want to create something new and real.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For me it is an incredibly game, the gameplay and the graphics are incredible, in my opinion I think that it is not receiving due recognition just for not pleasing everyone, the message of the game is clear: revenge will never bring you something good, you can lose everything even life, the simple fact that they killed joel has become a target of negative criticism when that gives you a lesson: every action has a consequence and sooner or later it will come to you, it also seems incredibly ridiculous that they are offended by the LGBTQ + theme as if they forgot that in TLOU 1 Ellie kissed her friend,stop being childish and immature, they enjoy the game! Because the game is a damn masterpiece… Expand

    Amazing visuals and a story that raises the bar for other video games. What a roller coaster ride. If you enjoy a game that grabs you by the feelings and keeps shaking, this is the game for you.

    Melhor jogo da geração disparado!!! Gráficos lindos, expressões faciais incríveis, dublagem fantástica para a língua portuguesa!!!! Alem de tudo isso, uma historia que te faz refletir sobre vingança e se o que voce esta tanto lutando para conseguir vale realmente a pena! GOTY de 2020 na minha opinião!

    This video game is a masterpiece. I can’t imagine I could love the antagonist of the game so much. Fantastic storytelling. I just want to thank Sony interactive entertainment, Naughty Dog, Neil Druckmann, and all the people who has a part in creating this masterpiece. I just want to thank Every Last One Of Them.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A harrowing, dark and unexpected sequel to an incredible game. It's a challenging and layered narrative that shines a strong light on the importance of perspective and empathy. Once playing through the game and finishing the story, it's apparent why you were shown both perspectives first-hand. Many of the criticisms leveled at the game and the "lack of revenge" against the so-called antagonist are very surface-level and blind to the deeper levels of story and motivations at play.

    Overall, an incredible journey and experience that I enjoyed thoroughly.    … Expand

    I am giving 9 out of 10 just because I don't like abby but I like the overall game and why the developer had made us play as Abby for 10 hours ?! They marketed as a game with only one playable character that's ellie why did they changed it ?!?!! It's stupid but still the game is a masterpiece !

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Such a disgrace to the previous game. This was supposed to be the continuation of the first game, which the false advertisement showed us. Everything I liked from the first game, the relationship between our two main characters, the depth of their personalities, the story of hope in an uncertain world, all of it was taken away. The franchise was all about the story, you would think ND knew that since he co-wrote the first one, but no. He just threw it all out the window within the first two hours of the game, and then tried to make us feel sorry for a despicable side-character through the 2nd half of it.
    Even if we ignore the plot holes and inconsistencies throughout the gameplay, the story still feels forced and poorly written. It tried to make us feel guilty about violence even though it gave us no choice to avoid it. The message it tried to convey was soo dumb.. like we didn't already know revenge was a bad thing. I hated the Abby gameplay, I actually considered quitting many times but I kept playing with the hope that this story would turn out to be one of Ellie's nightmare.. which would still have been a better plot that the one we were given.

    Thank you Neil Druckmanm for ruining a franchise with so much potential, at least it will serve as an example for future game developers.

    I'll give it a 2/10 for the graphics improvement, and out of compassion for the people who worked hard on it during 5 years.

    If you liked the first one, don't buy this game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I thought the story was awesome and playing different characters with opposite perspectives was really powerful. By the end I was hoping for the opposite conclusion than in the beginning. I started to find some of the gameplay a bit repetitive and not much difficulty in solving puzzles but overall still very enjoyable. What I really enjoyed in the original game was the multiplayer and it's really a tlou2 factions that I want to come out. I'll be back to tlou1 factions in the meantime.… Expand

    The game is very immersive, for many people it can contain difficult subjects to understand, however if you are open-minded and without social prejudice, it undoubtedly gets a lot out of it and leaves you with that lump in your throat that is already typical in Nughty Dog. It is a masterpiece.

Also, the character that kills him, we have to play as?! Why play as an unlikeable character? One plus of the game, the graphics are amazing! The gameplay, not so much. I never liked the rigid running style of the characters and it's even worse here. I can go on but you know this game is trash. 1/10… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Everyone can agree that the gameplay graphics and environment are stunning. But yet theres a lot of controversy about the story. Most people seem to neglect the fact that ND said it was going to be a game about Ellie, not Joel and Ellie. Too many fans don't seem to leave the first hour and a half of the game in their minds. They watch Joel die and then that's it for them, they spend the entire game thinking it's a run of the mill revenge story and they dont comprehend everything that's playing out in front of them. It's also seems like none of them even pay attention to the fact that Joel is still by your side throughout Ellie's journey through the game, whether its flashbacks, dialogue, or just those little moments where you know Ellie's hurting. These "fans" who bash this game don't even seem to take notice of character growth throughout the game. They don't seem to take notice that this adventure takes everything out of you and Ellie. It destroys her in emotional ways she didn't think she had anymore, and actually sickens her physically at a few points. Then you play as Abby. One of the most well written characters I've seen, phenomenal from her voice actor to her story. You're supposed to hate her at the start, but anyone in the world should realize that she's doing what almost anyone would do. You learn her backstory, how she was raised by a very caring man, how his death affected her (side note: Jerry was the the dark horse character I didn't know I'd care about this much, and it was rough when you could tell that making the cure for mankind was weighing on him because the thought of taking a child's life wasn't something he wanted.). Anyways, you watch Abby grow after the events in Jackson, and you watch her grow more than any other character in the game. She starts to understand that there's more to the world than what she sees and you can tell she understands the consequences of everything that's happened when you finally make it to the end of her journey. I've seen a lot of people say the story falls flat but, they couldn't be more wrong. I've never played a storyline game that runs you through the wringer the way that this one does. The year isn't over, and with the PS5 coming out soon, I can see it being challenged, but there's no reason this game should not win Game of the Year. It should get Game of the Decade too. And the writers should be acknowledged more for the genuine piece of art they laid out for us to enjoy. The actors should be praised for the absolutely masterful way they portrayed their characters and the developers and soundtrack people and anyone who I'm forgetting to mention should all be acknowledged too. You all truly gave us something worth the wait, something I plan on playing many more times.… 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]
