    I didn’t think it would surpass the first but wow, it really is the best game I have ever played. I don’t understand all the zeros. I think to enjoy and understand this you need to realize that this isn’t good vs evil and you have to have a level of emotional intelligence to fathom it.

    Without fear of retribution, I can honestly say The Last of Us Part II is one of the most powerful, poignant pieces of media/cinema/literature/entertainment/storytelling I have ever experienced.

    It's an incredibly intimate piece of literary work, and it needs to be analysed in that way. Well-written; beautifully nuanced, smart, impactful, hard-to-swallow and thought-provoking; even    Without fear of retribution, I can honestly say The Last of Us Part II is one of the most powerful, poignant pieces of media/cinema/literature/entertainment/storytelling I have ever experienced.

    It's an incredibly intimate piece of literary work, and it needs to be analysed in that way.

    Well-written; beautifully nuanced, smart, impactful, hard-to-swallow and thought-provoking; even more so than the first game. Ashley Johnson delivers another powerhouse performance in her work as Ellie. Laura Bailey and Troy Baker too, deserve an abundance of recognition.

    I don't think there's an argument to be had that this game, on a technical level, is masterful. The level of detail is off-the-charts incredible; the sheer-quality and craftsmanship on display is unparalleled by anything/everything currently on the market. The gameplay, environments, level design, editing, cinematography, sound mixing and soundtrack/score - beyond fantastic.

    If video games weren't already considered an art-form, they are now. The Last of Us Part II is this generation's apex mountain for video games. It's an extremely well-told tale of obsession; balancing themes of hope, humanity, vengeance, violence and acceptance. It's dark and deeply depressing and painful, but it's perfectly poetic and powerful all the more.    … Expand

    For me, the main criterion for any film or game is how much it engages me and how long after the end of the story I think about various scenes or plot details in general. And Last Of Us 2 - gave me a lot of food for thought and had a very strong emotional effect. Not to mention the visual beauty of the game, its crazy attention to the details and awesome soundtrack.

    This is easily the best game of the year, and probably the best of its genre ever.

While there would be much to say about the superb graphics, the beautiful environment and its skillful use in mood-setting, the challenging but fair combat (which can be tailored to your preferences), and the crafting system which hits the sweet spot between being too simple and too tedious, the real star in this game are the characters and the story.

    Contrary to what some critics say, the story of this game actually takes the ending of its predecessor seriously and explores its ramification. You get to know characters affected by these events, and the game makes you care deeply about them — so when at some point they clash with our protagonist, you really don't know whom to root for. The game also makes you actually care about minor characters on (almost) every side of the many conflicts in this game, which leads to many gut-clenching events which often made me pause the game to reflect on what had just happened.

    Oh, and — time and again — no one gets the easy way out. And this is where the game really shines and literally earns its “mature” label: When a story starts with the supposed hero slaughtering doctors and nurses in a hospital, who are on the verge of doing nothing less than saving humanity, an ending along the lines of “we killed the baddies, now everything is fine and everyone lived happily ever after”, which you see so often in movies and games, and some fans apparently expected, would be juvenile and rather empty.

    This game is not juvenile and empty. It is mature, and it actually has something to say. It elevates gaming from pure entertainment to art (that happens to entertain hella lot!).    … Expand

    Одна из лучших игр десятилетия (а может и более того), которая гордо становится в один ряд с такой классикой, как Half-Life 2. Красивая, жестокая, яркая и безумно трогательная история, где в мире полном чудовищ, главными монстрами становятся люди. Достойное завершение эпохи PS4.

IT IS THAT YOU CANNOT BE DUMBER.

    What I do not understand is that Metacritic, to the useless as you leave or enter the page, I really wish you all the worst in the world and, seriously, you should get to work or study you need.

    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.
