    Don’t listen to the haters. One of the best PS4 games. If you liked the first game you will love this one.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't think it is a bad game and honestly the worst part is that it is too short. Considering that is a sequel, it is difficult for the gamer to empathize with Abby. The story could be better, do that we have been waiting 5 years for a great story. Losing Joel at the begging is something that the gamer can't deal with and that's why we expect more from Ellie during the whole story.
    Graphics, BSO and the gameplay are great for PS4 pro and HR tv. I also expected more from the end, as having a face to face super deep conversation (Abby and Ellie) or to know more from Ellie's new life. I have been waiting 20 minutes for the final credits and we deserved a final scene.    … Expand

    Every single moment playing this game is tense, I came in with high expectations and wasn't disappointed. I'm constantly being surprised by the level of detail, the character development, the story, and its pure beauty. Its tense, tragic, beautify, and mesmerizing. I love this world so much. I can't wait to play it again.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last Of Us 2 is probably one of my favorite games to date. I was in love with The Last Of Us when it first came out and then after hearing about this I was astatic. The game had a great story and great area design/build. I also like the twist where we play as Abby, as it gives us the perspective of another character and can completely change the way we feel about the characters we have been playing to begin with. Although the ending may have been a bit sour to me, I still find the game overall amazing and an absolute must play for anyone who wants a good story telling game.… Expand

    não é melhor que o primeiro e não é perfeito, mas é um ótimo jogo. o final é discutível, tem algumas falhas narrativas, mas, que pra mim não afetaram tanto minha experiência. ele é denso, cruel, imersivo, coisas que eu gosto em filmes e jogos. a minha nota seria 8.5, mas não dá pra dar essa nota. dei 9 tb pra aumentar essa nota dos usuários que acho injusto.

    a morte do joel acho totalmente justificável já que deu um peso maior pra quest de vingança da ellie. só achei brutal demais para o que eles entregaram no final. fora que a ellie não descobre a verdadeira razão por trás da vingança da abby.

    Acho que a mudança de personagem quebrou muito o clima do jogo. estava com 20hrs com a ellie e de repente o jogo mudou pra abby. foram mais 10hrs com a abby e achei muito grande esse segmento, apesar de ter vários combates legais. se desde o começo as personagens fossem intercaladas, seria mais legal.

    o final é meio interpretativo. por que ela parou? pela minha interpretação foi porque ela estava disposta a perdoar o joel e ela viu que podia perdoar a abby tb. única critica é que poderia ter mais emoção, como, por exemplo, um último abraço deles.

    o pessoal não gostou do final, mas, achei compreensivo. o jogo é sobre o ciclo da vingança e ódio. as duas perderam muita gente. a ellie perdeu o joel e o jesse. a abby perdeu, além do pai, todos os amigos. nora, owen e mel pra ellie e o manny e o outro cara lá pro tommy. a abby vingativa foi uma criação do joel e a ellie matadora foi uma criação da abby. se a ellie matasse a abby, o ciclo iria continuar. talvez o lev iria atrás da ellie. quebrando o ciclo, o diretor conseguiria passar melhor a mensagem que a vingança não vale nada e vc pode perder tudo nesse processo.    … Expand

    Don’t waste your money, if you love last of us part 1. Story is all about deaths and There are no meaning of deaths. I wish I couldn’t play this game. Director have told “part 2 subject is hate” It is not about hate because part 2 has a poor story. I did not enjoy. Bad story is for me. Good game, if you kill someone.

    The greatest game of 2020 (at the moment). The Last of Us: Part II is a game about anger, hate, vengeance, but, above all, forgiveness. As The Last of Us (2013) was, this game is a turning point in story driven games, and only can only hope that every game from now on will continue to have this much attention to detail and cinematographic moments.

    The story was a complete let down, with so much agenda pushed into the game that it becomes frustrating...a disrespect to the first game and to joel as a character.
    Gameplay is fun but does not outweight the negative side that was the butchering of a nice well built story from the first game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is their story, not yours. Simple as that. Everyone is trying to suggest how the story should have been and how it should have ended but it isn't yours to tell. The world they live in is unforgiving and does not give chances to say goodbyes all the time and anyone could die at any moment, including the main characters which gives it the aspect of realism and logic to be honest. Even if I hated what happened to Joel, it still made sense that 25 years of his life after the outbreak was full of killings and murders that surely had to come back around somehow.

    As the story goes, I found it to be very sensible for me. Again, no one is safe in that world and every action will have its consequences and that's why I get it, especially when I was introduced to the full story and the different perspective of the tale and letting me understand why exactly what happened has happened. Even though my feelings changed from the first scenes and the last ones towards certain characters, I was satisfied all the way and I couldn't see a different ending that will make sense.

    But what was annoying for me a little bit is the pacing and going back and forth in the story which made me pay less attention to the order of the story.

    As for the game play, visuals & graphics, voice acting, motion capture, soundtracks, sound design, level design and the littlest of the details; all I can say that they are all 10/10 and really one of the best graphics and sounds I have ever seen and heard in a video game so far. Game play was so fun and intense at the same time especially the stealth.

    This game Absolutely kicks so much a**!!! not sure where all the hate is coming from unless you wanted part 2 to play it safe and just do another Joel/Elle cross the US again fighting infected. If you like the anti-hero. Shows like breaking bad, sopranos, Ozark. This is the video game version of those shows. Dayuuuuumn!! So good

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This isint about Joel, it’s certainly not about the beautiful scenery and the gameplay...

    This game is utterly boring and monotonous when compared to Last of Us ‘part 1’. The entirety of the games is spent as follows: go to an area, fight 5-10 people/ zombies, solve a simple puzzle, rinse and repeat for nearly the entire game.

    It is SO boring, the plot does not carry the weight of the game like 1 did, and the open areas would be a cool concept... if there was anything you could loot other than cloth, blades and ammo... who cares. I can’t believe that if they were going to do something as bold and polarizing as killing Joel they would also fill the game with boring repetitive sequences. I love getting to know Ellie, I love her as a character, but there needs to be more to this game. It is too repetitive... too boring to be standalone. There is absolutely no room for a sequel.

    This game is missing the heart that one had, it’s sad because it was my favorite game... 1 left me feeling something that other video games/ movies did not... 2 left me feeling disappointed.    … Expand

    Graphics are great but that's it. The story is really odd and an no point did I ever get the warm/fuzzy immersion feeling like I did in the first game. My gf used to just sit there and watch me play the 1st game and this one she was totally not interested. Total flop and should never have been made.

    O gameplay é bom, isso é o máximo que dá pra dar de elogio para esse jogo. Agora a história meu Deus que monte de bosta, 7 anos esperando pela sequência de uma obra prima e no final o resultado é decepcionante. Isso tudo é resultado da ganância desses caras que só ligam pro dinheiro, queriam tanto chamar a atenção que arruinaram tudo.

Also, the claims relate to the gameplay, it is not revolutionary, but high-quality and thoughtful. Deception in trailers, say thank you to the whistleblowers from YouTube, they try to guess the plot from advertising, as movies, as well as games, and TLoU2 is no exception, the developers intentionally add changed scenes to the trailer, so that you would not guess what will be in the game – a forced measure! Joyle's death at the beginning of the game ... did they merge the character? Don't forget that the characters live in a dangerous world, as Tess said from the first part, " Luck can't last forever!» Forget the expression leaked character, this does not apply to TLoU2… You could have made a different story, you can, but the writers did this… This game can be put 9 out of 10, but because of the most biased ratings = 0 well, this....

    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.
