    God, what a terrible disssapomtment. Why would you force players to play as the person who kills off a beloved character FOR LIKE 10 HOURS. Literally killed all desire to finish the game so instead I just watched a play through. After seeing the terrible ending im glad i didnt waste more of my life on this trash. What a joke.

    The story is blend and unrelatable, character makes questionable decisions, the only refining point is a gameplay

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is called Part 2 for a reason, a reason so obvious that we all blindly believe that the game will continue where the story left off in the first game. I’ve had a lot of imaginations of how the Part 2 may turn out to be, but boy, I’m not good at writing essays, I only get like flat pass for my english subject, but I can NEVER write something as bad as TLOU2. Remove the part 2 from the title, replace it with TLOU: The Journey of Abby or something that fits. The false advertisement with this game is so stupid that it’s not even funny at this point. First the trailer baiting us to believe that we at least get to play as Joel or have a short sequence to roam the world with him, which is exactly why I didn’t cancel my preorder, but ND lied and spits on my face.
    Then we have the misleading title. What’s next ND? Uncharted 4 Part 2 where we hunt down Nathan and smash him with a baseball bat? ND and The Last of Us part 2 can go straight to hell and rot there together. My brain refuse to believe that this is the sequel to a near masterpiece I’ve played years ago. At this point, I just hope Sony can listen to us the consumer/gamers opinion, just fire ND, I don’t care if it’s Naughty Dog or Neil Druckman that you’re going to take action against, take away their privileges for making video games in the future. I’d rather spend my $60 to buy 10 random game cd keys for $5 on eBay, still able to find a broken ass game with better story than this game that took 7 years to develope.

    This game is a bigger disappointment than I am to my family. 1/10 for the hardwork of the team.

    El juego ah dejado más que desear.
    Un título que prometía una historia digna, o así fue lo que se planteo en TLOU 1 una historia increíble.
    Uno de los temas que hay que tomar bastante en claro y que merece un 10 son los gráficos, los gráficos están pulidos a detalles muy buenos, buenos ambientes y banda sonora. El juego ocupa un excesivo uso de aprobación po la comunidad LGBT+ el juego es

    El juego ocupa un excesivo uso de aprobación po la comunidad LGBT+ el juego es muy bueno, pero su historia no.
    Un juego donde al principio se enseñó a no confiar en nadie, a porque se vive en un mundo desolado y peligroso.
    No sé profundiza en su precuela , claro es más humano y apoya a las emociones eso hay que tomarlo en cuenta ya que en la mayoría de decisiones hace parecer más humano todo con más sentimientos.

    En Fin Un juego con gráficos 10/10 y una historia de 3/10

    I'm saddened that I'm so disappointed in this game. This has one of the worst stories in a video game and one of the worst endings. The visuals and soundtrack are the only good thing about this game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. the only thing new gameplay wise is a jump button and being able to go prone...and maybe hiding in some grass. The graphics are amazing tho and it is one of the most technically impressive games ive ever seen and the performances by the different voice actors are top tier. Which is sad because they story is just terrible. Watching Joel die and then being forced to play as his killer for half the game ruined the experience for me and I cared very little about any of the characters that Abby interacted with during my time playing as her.

    This game could have been a much more enjoyable experience if they had changed the pacing of it all. everything was out of order and you never got time to develop any sympathy or feelings for any newly introduced characters. Other then that, just a very decent game. I'd wait for it to go on sale if you're going to purchase it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The inconsistency of Joel’s death. He drove over a guy pretending to be hurt. Ellie was kidnapped by cannibals. He wouldn’t just trust some random people. Also if the theme is revenge is bad, then how come it all works out for Abby, but Ellie who elects not to enact revenge loses everything. You’re forced to play as a character you dislike. They try to force you to like her, but it fails. And there is no payoff. A giant tease to avenge Joel, or get some closure and Ellie can’t even play the guitar anymore. It is a horrible story Expand

    Honestly, one of the most disappointing games of this year. I was genuinely hyped for this game and all I got was a below average story with shiny new graphics and the same exact gameplay with some minor changes. Overall a easy pass would not recommend.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Final horrível, destruiu tudo q tinha construído no primeiro game! Morte do Joel foi ridícula, o final foi ridículo, enfim, otima jogabilidade e ótimo gráfico, mas a história de perde toda hora por causa dos relacionamentos dos personagens! Era meu jogo favorito, mas esse foi realmente decepcionante, ao invés de impor ideologia de gênero, criaram mais ódio. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The writing for established characters in the previous game is inconsistent with their actions in this game, like in the beginning hours where caution well seasoned survivors Tommy and Joel walk themselves into a trap all the while Joel, who has explicitly shown in the previous game to be able to tell the signs of an ambush, assumes nothing of the encounter. The only saving graces of this story focused game is the graphics, and the Gameplay mechanics do little to evolve in comparison to the previous game, while keeping in mind that this game has had 7 years of development to improve upon them.

    From the moment this game starts it doesn't feel right. It's like when a movie franchise changes directors and everything feels a little off. Except this game has the same director as the first game, but is absolutely horrific. I don't care how good the graphics are or that the gameplay is decent (not anything super special). The pure disrespect of the characters and franchise as a whole,From the moment this game starts it doesn't feel right.

I don't care how good the graphics are or that the gameplay is decent (not anything super special). The pure disrespect of the characters and franchise as a whole, and the blatant lying and manipulating from the developers makes this game deserve a 0/10. Anyone who knows even the smallest bit about screenwriting knows that this is not the way to do it. Beginning through end a complete disaster. I don't understand what went through the minds of everyone who worked on this game, and how no one was able to see how awful of an idea this was. This game made me dislike Ellie, and makes me wish she was actually sacrificed at the end of the first game. Joel deserved so much better. This franchise went from perhaps the best game of all time to perhaps the worst game of all time. Thank you for completely ruining this franchise for all the fans. There should have never been a sequel; it should have ended at the first game. Expand

    Plot is awful. It doesn’t seem to be a sequel to the masterpiece that was the first game. The first game was an epic story and expanded to the “left behind” DLC. It left us wanting more. After 6/7 years, I’m utterly dissatisfied and wish that they didn’t attempt to make a sequel

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The last of us 2 has taken the beloved characters of the last of us and totally disregarded the characters they built, and disrespected the main character we played as in the first game. The gameplay is the same as the first, except the cut down on the environment puzzles that broke up the action of the first game. The graphics are of course top notch but they are overshadowed by the terrible writing and disrespect to the beloved characters. 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]
