    Gameplay is solid, graphics are the best I’ve ever seen, but the story is slightly disappointing and dissatisfying compared to the first game but I’d still 100% recommend this game to anyone who enjoyed the first game!

    Я не могу не сказать о том, что эта игра, на мой взгляд, лучшая игра на данный момент, потому что она пропитана с головы до ног огромнейшими усилиями в разработке, огромным желанием сделать шедевр и что-то стоящее, вниманием к мелочам, эта игра просто выбивается из всей индустрии! Но моя оценка вызвана ярым недоумением и огромным вопросом: «Почему ND так сильно прогнулось под феминизм??? Под мнение меньшинств??? Откуда такое желание угодить ЛГБТ и им подобным??? Зачем???»
    Весь этот гомосексуализм они пытались засунуть в каждую свободную ячейку этой игры, а затем Нил предложил возмущённым игрокам не покупать - если не нравится. Мне жалко, что в наше время почти ничего не остаётся кроме «серой морали»!

    It’s hard for me to write this comment, since I have been waiting for this game for almost 6 years, after I completed the first part on the newly purchased PS4.
    I tried very hard not to run into spoilers before the release of the long-awaited sequel, and all these years of waiting, I carefully followed the news about the continuation of the story of Ellie ...
    I can’t say that this game, in my opinion, is the best game at the moment, because it is saturated from head to toe with tremendous efforts in development, with a great desire to make a masterpiece and something worthwhile, attention to details, this the game just gets out of the whole industry!
    But my assessment is caused by ardent bewilderment and a huge question: “Why did ND bend so much under feminism ??? Under the opinion of minorities ??? Where does such a desire to please LGBT people and the like ??? What for???"
    They tried to put all this homosexuality into every free cell of this game, and then Neal suggested that indignant players not buy - if they didn’t like it.
    I am sorry that in our time almost nothing remains except “gray morality”!

    I completed this game roughly 22 hours after release, playing two long sittings. I am now finding it difficult to enjoy any other story-driven game since completing this.

I am now finding it difficult to enjoy any other story-driven game since completing this. Everything about this game is so far beyond the rest of the industry; from the complexity, non-linearity and depth in story-telling and dialogue, to the graphical achievments including quite honestly, the most accurate animation and physics in any video game I've seen.

    The story feels more mature than the first game, mirrored by the beautiful soundtrack by Gustavo Santaolalla, and further expands upon the world of The Last of Us whilst still tethering itself to the narrative and characters of the first game by continuing the story of Ellie and Joel, now residing in a settlement in Jackson after the ambigious ending of its predecessor. The timeline begins roughly 4 years after the first game, but due to its non-linear format, we jump around events amongst that 4 year period, discovering more details about the character relationships as well as the world in general. The story is bleak and grounded in the reality of human behaviour. It is far more effective at conveying the complexities of emotion than even the first game with the use of detailed journal entries throughout, and fantastic performances specifically from Ashley Johnson (Ellie) and Shannon Woodward (Dina).

    The gameplay is based on the same style as the first game, with major improvements in movement and an incedibly enjoyable combat system, alongside updated crafting systems that allow for far more creative approaches to stealth and fighting. The puzzle solving aspect of the first is slightly more subtly implemented and is more often than not tied to exploration than story progression - eg. breaking a window to gain access to an area with a lootable code used to crack a safe, or to find and collect one of the many trading cards.

    The plot holes I have seen many state are either completely non-existent or only visible under the microscope of those weighing this game to an unfair and hypocritically higher standard than almost any piece of media I have ever heard or seen. I utterly despise unnatural, heavy-handed writing - to the point of labelling myself pretentious in my consumption of entertainment - yet at no point did I feel anything being forced in my face during this game. "This character would never have done this or that" arguments can be absolved by simple fact that - between the first game and this one - everything is there that says entirely differently.

    The only criticism I have is that I feel some of the gameplay sections in the second third of the game could have been shortened, possibly removed, and the cutscenes would have sufficed.

    Recommendations before playing Part II:

    - Play the first game
    - Play Left Behind DLC
    - Watch the 'Grounded: The Making of The Last of Us' documentary (on YouTube)
    - Try to play Part II as soon as possible after finishing those three.
    - Drop your expectations of how you want Part II's story to go and experience it as 'this is the events that occurred' instead of battling with 'how it should've been'.

    Quite frankly, I find it hard to give the game anything but 10/10 because I cannot think of a single game that comes remotely close to this level of story-telling and all round impressiveness. This is a must-play if you like entertainment and video games driven by good stories, because this one's by far the most affecting experience in a game I've ever had.    … Expand

    People should grow up and learn about story structure before criticising that thing exactly. When talking about story "manipulating emotions" is not a thing, and if it is it's what every story or piece of art does because it's what it's meant to do. I think this game is nearly perfect, I liked the first more, but that doesn't take anything away from this one.

    I don't understand why this game is getting so much hate. I loved every second of this game, from beginning to end, and I respect the Naughty Dogs writers and Niel Druckmann for making bold and risky decisions with TLOUP2's characters and it's story. I didn't know where the narrative was going to go next, and it truly kept me interested and wanting to know what happens in the story next. There are some truly epic and scary/tense moments in this game, where I couldn't believe how terrified I was to walk down some corridors. I also really love the new characters, and hope to see an expansion of the story for some of them. If you haven't played this game, and are solely basing that decision off of leaks, or negative reviews, I encourage you to do so and make your own opinion. Most of the negativity is coming from one single beat in the story, and this game is so much more than just that moment. And even if the story doesn't do it for you, the gameplay is a lot of fun. The combat has been much more polished since the original game, and it's seriously a blast to play. The last positive, but certainly not least, is the graphics. This game is gorgeous. Walking through the nature/fungus infested seattle is an incredible experience. Thanks to naughty dogs tech and some top notch acting, character's movement and facial animations are so life-like and really bring out all of the emotions that all the characters are going through. And the infected have never been creepier.

    The Bad:
    The only negative thing I will say is that I felt that some of the game did drag a little bit between cutscenes and story events. The game wants you to explore for supplies, collectables, etc. And, while I love this and really enjoy finding journals and letters of people long gone, I can also see where this can be a chore to some. If they shortened a few of these moments and some of the filler moments of the story, I think this would have been a 10/10 for me.

    The Ugly:
    I did have a bug occur twice where I fell through the floor. Wasn't game breaking and I didn't lose any progress, just an observation.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First and foremost i have to say i think it is a very good game but there are some flaws which make me rate the game an 8. The idea of telling the story from two different perspectives is great but the player has to play as Abby for too long. When I saw we went back to play as Abby i was like okay...explain to me what happened i am curious. It is explained quite quickly so I thought after a couple of hours playing as Abby that we would play as Ellie again soon. I love Ellie’s character so much and just felt like i wanted to get through Abby’s part to get back to Ellie. In other words, i felt like playing as Abby took away from the time we would get to play as Ellie. Then I started to realize that we we’re going to see Ellie again much later and that we would have to play as Abby till the point their stories meet again in the theatre. At this point we played for 10+ hours as Abby and then we even had to attack Ellie?? That part i didn’t understand, i feel like we should have just had the cutscene without the combat or the perspective should have changed to Ellie. Hurting Ellie as Abby felt absolutely terrible.

    I also felt like the game could have been improved by implementing more flashbacks and backstory before Joel gets killed. Now all the flashbacks were just painful to watch because we already knew what was going to happen, they were still good though but adding more in the beginning would have given us more of the dynamic we loved in the first game. I just loved the atmosphere and vibe of Jackson and I wish there were more scenes there. I would also have loved for Ellie and Dina’s relationship to be more detailed... how did they meet, when did Dina come to Jackson for example. Ellie also writes about her ex-girlfriend Cat, considering she is the first love interest Ellie had after Riley I figured we would see their relationship somewhere in the game but that was unfortunately not the case. Owen and Abby’s relationship seemed to be more in depth and we almost get to learn more about Owen than we learn about Dina.

    In the end these are things that I think would have made the game a bit better and scenes which would have nicely balanced against the dark and depressing nature of the game. But i do think the game is good. The final part where we get to see Abby all worn out and sad is fantastically done. Ellie found the closure she was looking for, finally. In that moment Abby was not thinking about revenge anymore, she found closure and was just thinking about surviving and protecting Lev. At the very moment Ellie let’s go of Abby she has forgiven Joel and she can think about good moments with him instead of those horrible flashbacks. That scene with Ellie in the water broke me. Her telling Abby to go and take Lev and just sitting there crying with the beautiful music coming in. And Abby glancing back at Ellie as she sailed away with Lev... that was an emotional scene. It was a depressing ending though with Ellie and Dina basically being broken up... i would have loved to see Ellie reunite with Dina and J.J and then the camera would slowly move away until we have a Birdseye view of Jackson and bam end-credits. Maybe that is to sappy but it would have made the ending a bit more happy haha.    … Expand

    The Last Of Us II is an improvement on the first in nearly every way while still keeping what made the first game special. Story and characters are well done as expected and the game plays and feels amazing. In keeping with the spirit of the first game, The Last of Us Part II has become one of the best games of this generation.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Probably the most emotionally draining game I have ever played. Naughty Dog has outdone themselves with immersing the player into their games and making you feel for their characters. The stealth encounters are on a new level of immersion and this became the most paranoia-inducing game I owned. The story is depressing the whole way through, you feel the frustration in Ellie and you continue to constantly power on but at what cost? The game is brutal and killing an enemy made me feel a way I never had towards computer A.I. telling you that you cannot pity anyone in this dog-eat-dog world. You find yourself rooting for both Ellie and Abby as they've experienced the same pain and it is the most painful experience during the end fight against each other. Peace of mind is a fictitious concept in this story and no one feels content before the game finishes, I grip on to what little amount of hope Ellie has when she leaves her home. Naughty Dog has done an incredible job on leaving players (who appreciate the story) with so much to think about weeks after they've finished the game and that's what I think they wished to accomplish with this new title.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In the genre of 'zombies' or 'Apocalyptica', the premise of killing off characters should never be off the table. It's this freedom that makes the consumer feel the intensity that these environments would realistically give.

    In this case, the writers have fully exploited this trope. But now - it's you, the gamer, who has to carry out the plot. In the first bit of the game, you have to watch a yet unknown character brutally beat someone to death. Not only that but later in the game, you have to play as that would-be villain.

    I think the best stories aren't just entertaining. They're also enlightening. This is an enlightening story. And by the end, I felt guilty and sad for Ellie. But that's OK. She's not real. But at that moment, the gameplay and story up to that gave me an opportunity to escape and feel for something.

    I probably won't replay this game for a while. I didn't feel nice and warm in the end. But that's OK. And that's why I'm rating it 10/10.    … Expand

    Great game. It didn't have the same emotional impact on me as TLOU-1, but this game is deeper and deals with more complex emotions.

    Pros: looks and plays great. Outstanding music and voice acting. Realistic characters. Some great action sequences. Attention to detail in Seattle, and the context-sensitive actions you can do. Complex story, which ended exactly as it should have. Not    Great game. It didn't have the same emotional impact on me as TLOU-1, but this game is deeper and deals with more complex emotions.

    Cons: some parts drag and the game on my first play through felt slightly long. Subsequent playthroughs felt just right, though. The narratives on the collectibles were just not as memorable to me as in the first game, like when tracking Ish through his notes, or the doctor's notes in the hospital.
    Part 2 is also a bit more emotionally draining than TLOU-1. Gameplay and trophy-hunting is a bit too easy.
    Also, no multiplayer :(

    I've completed the game twice, once on the Survivor+. I feel if you don't pay close attention to all the game dialogue and information on collectible notes, much of what the game is going for will be lost on you.
    It's definitely a game I'll return to and play favorite chapters and sequences again.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. When I first played through the last of us 1, it was an incredible experience and I became SUPER involved with the story and characters. The tension between Ellie and Joel towards the end left me wanting so much more!

    So when LOU 2 released I got it immediately and in several aspects the game did not disappoint. The gameplay, the new animations, the SHEER DEPTH OF DETAIL in the world is remarkable and honestly in terms of all that , the game is a PERFECT. I enjoyed playing it throughout. However, I cannot call this game a masterpiece, simply because of how the writers chose to take the story. When they killed Joel early in the game, I was shocked and more importantly, I was disappointed because I KNEW, no matter how they took this plot we would not be able to play with Joel and we would not be able to enjoy that tension and that dynamic with Ellie anymore. Flashbacks are NOT enough, and frankly, they could've timed Joel's death or written Joel's death much more differently, but just like that you got rid of him? Anyways, at that point I chose to accept it because well I thought to myself, it's Naughty dog right? They will probably have an insane plot coming for us now. When Ellie & Tommy wanted revenge , I was okay with the way things went on. And even more importantly, when they showed Abby's perspective from THAT DAY in the hospital, and the fact that the man Joel killed was her father, I WELCOMED that because now things would get interesting right??? Well, suddenly we're in Abby's world now! We get to learn about her life and her story during those days in Seattle for some odd reason. I WELCOMED THAT TOO, because well it was refreshing to play and learn the other side too, but honestly, the amount of game time given to her character was WAY TOO MUCH! Even though I was interested while playing with her, I don't care enough about her! Honestly what was that whole thing with Yara & Lev?! I'm sorry, in many ways it was beautiful, and in terms of gameplay I really enjoyed going through it but purely in terms of the MAIN CENTRAL PLOT, why is this getting so much time?! And I thought to myself , what is wrong with Abby? I loved when Mel confronted her about her hypocrisy, the way she killed Joel and the fact that she killed the highest # of scars but suddenly she cares about these two kids? I loved that, because when she tries to save those kids in that island , she ends up killing WLF soliders too?! What? For me that was just too much of a mess to understand. The entire plot around the two kids was just a mess in my opinion. But that isn't even my biggest frustration, after all that gameplay is done with Abby, she kills Jesse, cripples Tommy and you're playing as her against Ellie? And not gonna lie, in a way it's very cool to have Ellie as a boss but I sure as hell don't want to PLAY against her? My mind was in a constant conflict and honestly I was annoyed. After Abby let's Ellie and Dina go, I think to myself, SURELY Ellie gets back at her now? And that's exactly what happens and I'm finally on the path to get this revenge over with. However, after killing several SEVERAL people in her way , Ellie towards the end can't finish it when she has the ultimate opportunity? WHY? Why not?! Cause of her trauma? Cause she couldn't forgive Joel before he died? Well, ABBY is directly responsible for that whether he deserved to die or not! And Abby is also responsible for those images in her head, because well she repeatedly beat him to death with a golf club IN FRONT OF HER. In fact, Abby is responsible for A LOT MORE. But suddenly Ellie let's her go? I'm sorry but this was it for me plot wise. Ellie did not even know that the man Joel killed was Abby's father!

    I just cannot like how this turned out, and I believe that's all because of how the writers chose to go with this. The flashbacks with Joel felt GREAT , because I was constantly craving for that dynamic between them. Why couldn't they write Joel's death differently? Why does it have to be so early? Why is there so much filler nonsense in the middle of the game instead? For me , the way they wrote the story takes away this games HIGH potential to be game of the year. In terms of production, everything was on point and this has been one of the best games I've ever played in terms of visuals and gameplay, but the plot is poorly and lazily written and that makes me cut a solid 2 points from the score to give this game an 8/10.

    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]
