    Simplesmente o jogo da minha vida. Senti uma mistura de emoções ao jogar essa obra prima e ao chegar ao fim, senti um vazio inexplicável. Era como se uma parte de mim tivesse morrido. Só tenho a agradecer a Naughty Dog por ter feito esse jogo incrivelmente maravilhoso. Agora é só esperar pelo GOTY no fim do ano

    Made an account right after finishing the game just to review it because the current user rating is an insult to such a brilliantly crafted game/story!!! Willing to bet the majority of the reviews are just from the first 2 hours of the story, or due to whatever “agenda” people are complaining about. The game is amazing. The story is very well written. Emotions go all over the place. TheMade an account right after finishing the game just to review it because the current user rating is an insult to such a brilliantly crafted game/story!!!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To be quite frank, this game hurt me. It left me emotionally scarred. Joel’s death was brutal and the fact that you controlled Abby right before that segment made the whope scene even more gruesome. I felt like i betrayed Joel. So i understood Ellie’s urge for vengence. I was ready to make Abby pay. I loved the romance between Ellie and Dina and how both really loved eachother. When the change happened and I had to play Abby I was at first furious, but after seeing her interact with her friends and with other people I realised that she’s alot like Joel and Ellie and it’s not uninamaginable that they could have bern friends if things were different. I believe that one of the most touching themes of the game is the dehumanization of the enemy. Abby isn’t looking at Joel as an individual, he’s just the **** that killed her father. Ellie is not seeing the persons she’s killing throughout the story as persons, merely as obstacles in her way to revange. I think it was genius for the creators to humanize Abby and to show that she’s a person who’s flawed, but also that can crack bad joke and that can have fun with the people that she loves. In most media she would be a moustache twirling villain. I understood why Abby wanted to torture and kill Joel, if someone killed your parent, you’ll most likely want to do the same thing. Thinking that this act of violence will solve anything is wrong. That’s way the heartbreak of Ellie leaving Dina and JJ to finally kill Abby is more impactfull. In this moment Abby is more in the right than Ellie. Abby spares Ellie’s live and Ellie has everything that she could ever dream for, but she just can’t let go of the hate. The dissapointment and sadness in Dina’s face when Ellie leaves is that same as ours. Dina and we don’t want to see Ellie leave and lose this life that she managed to get after all the loss that she has suffered. Ellie’s choice to go back after Abby is not supposed to make sense, it is something instinctual, no logic or reason can convince her to stop her crusade. The final fight between Ellie and Abby, after Ellie cuta her down the pole is very emotional. Seeing Abby caring for Lev as Joel cared for her humanizes Abby in Ellie’s eyes. Before the fight she thinks about letting them go, but her need to fight her, to have some kind of resolution is greater. Only when she is about to win and to accomplish everything she wanted, she realises that it was not worth it and that the Joel from Jackson, the calm parental figure that took her to museum on her birthday and that played gee-tar on the porch of his house would be okay with letting go of the hate. The final discussion between Ellie and Joel, in hindsight, gave Ellie some kind of relief, I believe she was able to forgive Joel for his actions because she saw what Abby and herself were capable of doing for the people that they loved, so now she understood his actions better. The empty house and Dina taking JJ and leaving is the price she has to pay for this lesson, although in my headcannon they worked things out and got back together. In conclusion, The Last of Us Part II is a difficult, brutal game, that is not afraid to make bold decision that may not please some fans. It is not the safe story that they could have told. It is not a perfect game, some people will hate it. The pacing of the game can be a little jarring, but i believe that it was necessary to simpatize and to humanize Abby, which was always to goal of the game, to create a character that appears evil and unredeemable, and show that from a different perspective heroes appear villains and villains appear heroes. As a game and as a piece of art this game made me feel emotions that i didn’t expect a game to be capable to convey, for this reason and for the gameplay, sound, visuals this game is 10/10 in my book.… Expand

    This game is an insult to the first. The story it's just terrible, all the characters are forgettable and boring. Only the graphics and actions are good. But if we want that we could play other games with great graphics and actions, but we play this game mostly for the story, and the story is garbage.

    I couldn’t decide between a 4 or 5. I want to give a honest to God review. I had to sit back and look at how I felt. And I felt awful. This game isn’t one of those “sad endings but great journey” kind of feel. If all of our favorite characters names changed, you wouldn’t even notice it was supposed to be Ellie or Joel. Everyone acted VERY out of character. And not the “oh she just grew up”I couldn’t decide between a 4 or 5. I want to give a honest to God review. I had to sit back and look at how I felt.

I never felt a connection to the new characters as much as I did try. Naughty Dog made a character that was so obvious you were supposed to sympathize for. But it was so FORCED! Unlike the first one which was organic. In the first game, I didn’t even notice how attached to Joel I was until he he got severely hurt. I was surprised. I couldn’t get that spark back this time around. The story was highly disappointing and all over the place. This is just my personal opinion, but it was too long. I’m a slow gamer as it is, and this game took forever. You can tell there is a message being pushed. Whether or not you like the message I believe is a personal decision every individual has the right to make. And for those who do not like the message should not be condemned. Especially when it so upfront and obvious. On the positive side, like everyone clearly praises, it’s graphics are amazing. I was surprised I was playing a PS4 game. A lot of effort was put into graphics and it shows. Gameplay is familiar. Still good and easy to learn like the first one. And my oh my, can you customize the settings. That is nice for people who really like to control their game flow.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Only reason I'm giving this a three is because of how beautiful the game looks and the load of time put into creating this "masterpiece". The Last Of Us Part 2 compared to the first game is an absolute dumpster fire. The story was trash, forcing us to focus on new characters that we couldn't bother to give two **** about. Not only that, but it was really boring. I know everyone thinks people are joking when they say that they've fallen asleep while playing this game, but it's actually possible to do so. They disrespect such a beloved protagonist with a gruesome and unnecessary death, and then they make you play as that same character for ten hours. I get that the game is trying to make the character see the **** that Joel's actions put Abby through, but the game doesn't even offer a choice to kill or spare Abby. The one and only thing I enjoyed aside from the graphics was the phenomenal gameplay. Thanks, Neil Simp Druckmann, for ruining such a beloved franchise with so much potential.… Expand

    The game was absolutely awesome ... Everything was built up based in consequences and emotions.. it's easily gonna be a game that will never forgotten.. gameplay was great but besides all the story was a very well mix of emotions to make you fill what the characters in the game feel. 10/10 all day long screw trashtalkers.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. historia pesima que se contradice que tiene el tlou2 decepcionado completamente, podrá tener gráficos geniales y una jugabilidad buena, pero si la historia es una mierda ahí nomas queda, vendieron por el primer juego, y no me afecta que estén atacando al director en las redes por esas ideas pedorras que tuvo este juego(y literalmente meterse en el juego y escupir al personaje más querido de la franquicia y al mismo tiempo escupiéndole a los fans de the last of us con esta historia pesima) como ese final pésimo sin ningún peso en la trama la cual se contradice "la venganza es mala"
    ellie perdio todo muchos amigos a su "padre", la cuckearon y abandonaron, hasta los dedos que ni tocar la guitarra puede y abbye se vengo y todo le salio de 10 "ayyy pero pierde genteeee" (que a ella ni le caía bien y incluso a algunos tenia ganas de matarlos y yayyy el guion hace que mueran sin que ella tenga que hacer nada)

    abbye no es una victima, cuando ella se vengo de joel hizo que ellie mirara y la dejo ir solo para poder seguir haciendo lo mismo(si a ella le dolió mucho lo que paso porque queres que alguien que no te hizo nada sufra incluso más haciéndola mirar?), tuvo oportunidades infinitas de matar a a elli pero no, mata a seres queridos de ella solo para ver su reacción (y creo que con le escena del teatro queda bien en claro que abby es una sadica), si elli la ubiera matado no seria lo mismo que hizo abby bajo ningún concepto (hey amigos la venganza es mala a pero si lo haces como abby que le salio todo de 10 y nunca recibió castigo ta todo genial)

    si querían hacer algo con el tema de la venganza es mala podrían haber dejado que ellie matara a abby (y ahi abby tendria su merecida consecuencia por sus actos) y a ellie que se quedo sin nada y que no le valió la pena con todo lo que perdió o haciendo que mueran ambas y ahi el "la venganza no trae nada bueno" esta bien ya que las 2 personas que se vieron consumidas por esta recibieron sus consecuencias por sus actos no como lo que hicieron con abby dejándola ir contradiciendo todo el mensaje ya que todo le salio bien y ni tuvo consecuencias que a ella le afecte

    y ya ni entro en el sin sentido de joel confiando en desconocidos y justo estando con tommy JA o por ejemplo elli teniendo remordimientos por vengar a joel(persona la cual daría su vida por ella sin dudarlo, bueno dejo de lado la cura de la humanidad solo para que ella viva) cuando en la parte 1 defendió y dio todo por defender a joel cuando estaba herido, ni hablar el bardo que hizo en el pueblo con el final del machete al lider turbio ese hey pero ahora tengo remordimientos)    … 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]
