    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is spectacular. A lot of people have a problem with how the story uses post-modern structures, but to me it made me enjoy the game more. Jumping through time as two characters really nails home the emotions that our protagonists go through throughout the story. Without saying too much, the story is heart stopping and the gameplay is jaw dropping. From fear and sadness, to happiness or excitement; every emotion comes to play in the epic tale of revenge and sympathy. Haters of the game failed to understand the games dual narrative structure which was used to juxtapose two strong opposing characters to help the audience realize that the two aren't so different after all.… Expand

    Игра - абсолютный шедевр! Разработчики молодцы. История, графика, боевка реализованы очень круто. Для игра как глубокая интересная книг. ЛГБТ совсем не мешает. Круто!

    At face value, the story is pretty bad. But there's some incredibly human, and nuances moments and motivation which the characters have, and this game is not to be judged the moment the credits roll.

    One of the besvideo game storiesm Also the combat is freakin' great

    Очень хорошая игра. Дракман молодец, очень хороший сценарист, знает свое дело. Геймплей пушка, графика пушка, музыка я вообще молчу. Минусов столько же как и у песни Владимирский централ Михаила Круга их нет

    Die hard fans of TLOU, I can understand why people are furious about TLOU2, but it's not that bad.

    I would say the screenplay is good but not the best route. It does create unprecedented tensions between characters, but there are many other ways to write a good story. I would say it's a lazy choice. However the execution was great, gameplay was great, and if I were not a fan for TLOU1,    Die hard fans of TLOU, I can understand why people are furious about TLOU2, but it's not that bad.

    Although I don't like Abby, the Abby line is quite good, especially the part with Lev. I can feel that it somehow emulates the relationship between Joel and Ellie in TLOU1, but it's simply not as good.

    The game is short, but with the story decision it's long enough. I honestly think Naughty Dog did try to maximize the tension inside the game, but sometimes darkness and conflicts are not the only thing we expect from game like TLOU2.    … Expand

    Creo que se mantuvo la esencia y cuidaron los detalles para los fans de Tlou 1 me gustó como se desarrolla la historia y como termina las gráficas son de otro mundo, en ocasiones puede ser repetitivo la forma de juego sin embargo las posibilidades de hacer cosas nuevas dentro de él dependen de ti y cuanto te quieras arriesgar

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.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't agree with the negative reviews here saying that playing as Abby ruined the story. To me, it offered such a unique experience. I really empathized with Abby. This created an inner conflict: I should be rooting for Ellie, the girl I stuck with through thick and thin, but Abby was kind of right killing Joel. I also saw a lot of similarities between the two. This made it so hard for me to pick a side. At the end of the game I really didn't want to kill Abby. I felt like Ellie was the malefactor in this scenario. So I was really satisfied when she let her go. The death of this character would have been too much injustice. The Last of Us: Part 2 is more than a story of survival. It's about unjust punishment that an apocalypse inextricably entails. In this respect, Part 2 is more complex than Part 1. This game isn't about wreckless killing and taking revenge. The reviewers here who rate the game badly fail to see this.… Expand

This is a very dark, sad story to be sure, but so fitting to the backdrop, with resonating experiences and lessons, and yet still it has wonderful moments to lighten the mood.
    The graphics are the very best for this generation, truly amazing. The game mechanics and combat are very good, improved from TLOU1, with my only minor complaint being the challenge to switch between guns. NaughtyDog, this lifetime gamer for decades, thanks you for creating a masterpiece that I’ve never experienced its equal!!!    … Expand

Il gioco presenta: una grafica spettacolare con le texture molto belle definite per essere uscito solo per ps4 ''ovviamente lo giocato su ps4 pro quindi quindi se lo avete giocato su ps4 normal ovviamente non godrete una esperienza grafica chi sa che o se lo avete visto su youtube o su twitch la stessa cosa.''Il gioco ci butta nel seguito del primo TLOUP1, nel corso del gioco avremo una esperienza di tutti colori rabbia, tristezza, pianti, felicita, rancore ed ecc. ecc. Il gameplay è un po scriptato in alcune scene in move, però merita tutto di essere giocato rigiocato è platinarlo.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First off, I would give this a solid 9 or a 10 but the story pacing was off.

    Abby is a good character and honestly I don't get why people would criticize the game for how Joel died. He gave up his name because 1) he got a little soft during the years in safety, 2) Tommy already said their names to Abby and used his real name to introduce himself to the group, and 3) it's his gosh dang first name, how was he to expect he would be killed for revealing that his name was Joel (which a million other people are named, I'm sure).
    I loved the game! Both of the Abby/Ellie fights were great and very hard to get through because I just wanted them to stop. It's something that I think is super awesome they managed to do with a video game.
    I lowkey thought Abby's section was better than Ellie's (just a bit). I can understand why people don't like that it isn't much related to Ellie's half. But I think it is related to the theme, the game is making you play instead of telling you what to think or feel about a character. You're taken on a ride with Abby and Lev that reminded me of the Joel and Ellie dynamic but in a unique and interesting way. As soon as Abby makes the choice to betray her people for the ones she cares about and gain her humanity back, we are asked to undergo a similar change. We are forced to ask ourselves, "Am I willing to forgive her?". If the answer is yes, then it becomes all the more painful to see the death and destruction Ellie caused from Abby's point of view. Just as soon as she was redeemed, Abby had to lose all over again. And when these two collide, they know nothing about each other and we know everything, we understand both sides. This is what made the fighting, from then on, so frustrating and so engaging.    … Expand

    It’s a beautiful game with a fantastic story told from 2 different perspectives. If you’re willing to invest and immerse yourself in the story and do not actively refuse it because of some childish resentment, you’ll definitely love this game.

    Had to make an account, because I’ve never seen as many p******s complain about a game in my life. Honestly feel like the majority of those that have left a bad review do it just to **** on the game for no reason. It was a great game. Evokes emotion. Graphics were **** fantastic. Ambience and tone made me not want to enter rooms at times. Yeah, it’s ****ty the way things started, but oh well.

    I think it was beautiful. They made you do things you didn't want to and feel things you didn't want to, you were uncomfortable much like you are in life a lot of times but it was perfect. They had to align the sequences the way they did to make you feel like you did. From anger to confusion to empathy to a sense of relief, hope and forgiveness. It was just perfect.

    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]
