    Great graphic, gameplay is big improvement on first game BUT, story is just bad, downright discussing.

    Yo, the game is in the technical part near to perfection and the story, despite im not loving it as much as the first part, is pretty neat.

    But im gonna put a 0 here because my first review with a higher note was removed without any reason.

    I gave a negative score to this game, and then my metacritic account got banned, I need to send emails to the admins to get it back, very interesting.

    História fraca e acaba com tudo estabelecido no primeiro game, a gameplay está ali pra compensar a história mal feita

    ¡Se pasa de bueno!, despues de leer millones de criticas de taraditos desconfie del juego, pero tuve la oportunidad de jugarlo y debo decir que es de lo mejorcito de 2020, un gameplay increible y una historia envolvente.

    Si no eres un virgen con olor a queso que se queja porque en esta entrega las mujeres tienen mas relevancia lo vas a disfrutar al 100%.

    what a waste of potential...First game was just beautiful. I got all the way to the Abby part, played a good few hours with her and gave it as much goodwill as I could and just nope...the investment in this very particular type of game is far too high to support what becomes a very contrived (and sorry to say creepily wokish), petty story arc in support of palpably unlikable characters.what a waste of potential...First game was just beautiful.

And so, despite so much good in graphics and gameplay, it somehow fails in exactly the way the previous game succeeds. Perhaps it got way better after I gave up but it ultimately feels like a big ol' waste of time for slightly garbage stakes with garbage people...I really tried...I tried...… Expand

Зря только накинулись на нее из-за повесточки, ибо, если рассматривать с точки зрения "повесточки", к примеру"Super Mario", то "Nintendo" вообще сделали игру про братьев наркоманов-педофилов. Я это к тому, что игра Драккмана вовсе не про ЛГБТ, а про то, что не надо никому мстить, а также, про то, что нужно уметь вовремя признавать свои косяки и прощать и отпускать всех, а особенно, свое прошлое.… Expand

    I liked the game for its atmosphere, story, and characters. It was interesting to watch the parallel progression of stories from two points of the narrative. One branch of the story followed the path of revenge, carrying the character down, and the other the other way up. Lively emotions, lively characters. Great cutscenes. I recommend it to everyone.

    Whoever is giving this a TEN I dont know how you could. This game is way too long and get so repetitive. Some of those Abby missions were so irritating not because its Abby but rather its the repetitiveness of them. You literally do the same stuff with Ellie in similar surroundings. I know why they did it but my god they could have done it a different way. Why not just send us to the crane earlier on then send us to the island instead of all the other crap that we did already with Ellie. Trust me this game is great but its needs a haircut.

    I think I have to mention the story cause this games selling point is the story. Not the zombies, there is plenty of zombie games. Not the gameplay, there's better gameplay in many other games. Its the story. People didnt think ohhhh cant wait to rummage through a load of cabinets in this 40 hour game. No. Its the story. The story gets a passing grade.

    What a pass? How? Well Im glad you asked. Your on a revenge mission with Ellie and thats not interesting to be fair. But the killing of Joel you feel the same as Ellie. You must get after Abby. You must. We must. And as you progress through the game its goes pretty with the odd flashback with Joel in their which reminds you what your fighting for. That man that you've played as, that Ellie was mentored by and was essentially her father. And then when you come out of the flashbacks your back to the reality that Abby took him from us. Your motivated again.

    Now the story takes a dramatic turn at the theater where you play 10 hours of Abby. Huh! Thats just just weird. And you basically just play the game again but as Abby. The story just stops and restarted again. The game just stopped and restarted again. And dont get me wrong there are some great game moments and story moments in there but it belongs in a DLC or as an after game unlock or something like that. Just shoving it in there is jarring. And you play as Abby in the theater going after Ellie. Again weird choice. Maybe make that a choice. You play as Abby or as Ellie. Its a game after all

    Look its a good game but its long. The story is a bit of a mess and the way it was put together was even messier. And yeah Joel dieing sucks but thats not a game breaker for me. There is just no pay off with it. Some characters are inconsistent. Now I heard its full of SJW stuff. Yeah maybe some but thats not the issue here. This game had some ideas where to go but they skipped a few steps and now we have a game with great mechanics but the story is probably still on the second draft while the first game had maybe 13 drafts.

    Seven out of Ten. And I felt horrible playing it.    … Expand

    Oh boy! Where to start? The game fails dismally where is matters most and where the first game succeeded so well - The Story. That is what made first game Great was the story and characters (Joel & Ellie) who we watched bond and it all made sense in a great way. This doesn’t. A meandering story full of holes and characters we have little empathy for. Only nice thing i can say isOh boy! Where to start?

You essentially play as two villains throughout the game killing hundreds of innocent people all in the name of revenge. Apparently these two women have severe PTSD from watching their fathers die, yet don't blink an eye when the brutally murder hundreds of innocent men women and children with their own hands.… Expand

    1. Joels death was painful to watch. You play as a character named Abby who is running away from a horde of zombies. You are then saved by the beloved characters, Joel and Tommy. They save you on multiple occasions and eventually you bring them back to your little hide out. Now the first issue I have here is continuity with character personalities (Characteristics/traits). Joel and Tommy1. Joels death was painful to watch. You play as a character named Abby who is running away from a horde of zombies. You are then saved by the beloved characters, Joel and Tommy. They save you on multiple occasions and eventually you bring them back to your little hide out. Now the first issue I have here is continuity with character personalities (Characteristics/traits). Joel and Tommy are known to be survivors and it is clearly demonstrated in the first game. When I mean clearly, they literally show Joel being ruthless to a group of bandits that were pretending to be injured, knowing this, Joel goes straight through like a badass. However, this trait is no longer seen in the second game. He casually just walks into a room filled with people that are armed and unknown. He then introduces himself, eventually getting killed. You see Joel die in the most brutally and heart-wrenching way possible during the first act of the game (2 hours in). This is where people misunderstand the majority of why fans hate this. We are not upset that Joel died...its how he died. His death by the end of the game nearly meant nothing. His character is not the same character we grew to love. Nor was his death memorable or meaningful whatsoever. A lot of us understood the motive that was presented here for Ellie, and yes...it did make us angry and we too wanted revenge just like Ellie. But it was done in a way that was so lazy and poorly written.

    this was the worst game ever released by naughty dog!!! as a story focused game its main drawback was the bad story and extremely trash characters!!! it was a waste of good graphics and an amazing franchise! i think buying this game and playing it was a mistake and this game don't deserve to be the part II for amazing original TLOU.

    My favourite game of the PS4 era. I liked the original a hell of a lot - but this felt way better to me. The combat this time actually felt fun, and it was so fun to take people out and stealth around. And look, I get it, the story was controversial but I really enjoyed it. This is in my top 3 games of all time, probably - it's not MGS3 but it scratches somewhat of a similar itch for me.

    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]
