    El juego me parecio exelente, tanto en jugabilidad, graficos e historia. Creo que la historia esta bien enlazada con la primera parte.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First game is a good balance of good gameplay(50%) and good storytelling(50%), this second one is only gameplay, graphics, the monsters designs and little details are really good and some parts of the game, but half way on this game, the player is forced to play something that they don´t want to, this second half of the game is like a punisment for the players, and the worst part, force to feel something, just because the story requires it, and after all the time that you put in the game, the player is NOT REWARDED IN THE END. The storytelling is messy and you cannot belive that the sameperson that worked on the first game did the second one, when the story is soo bad that it takes away your will to play it, that is not a masterpiece.

    Vale, al haber JUGADO Y ACABADO TLOU parte 2, opino que el juego es bastante bueno, bien es cierto que hay partes de la historia donde se hacen largas, aburridas.

El gameplay en mi opinión, me gusta que sea como el de la parte 1, ya que si hubiesen cambiado mucho la mecánica de juego no se sentiría como si estuviese jugando tlou, aunque eso creo que es más subjetivo. Por parte de la banda sonora, creo que está bastante decente, pero esto ya es algo subjetivo. El desarrollo de personajes la verdad es muy incompleta y creo que nos han introducido un personaje muy importante de una manera bastante precipitada y pienso que no llega a tener un buen desenvolvimiento. Pero aun así pienso que no es un hecho que no nos deje disfrutar Tlou 2. ¿Se merece esos 10 de los críticos? No. ¿Se merece esos 0 de los jugadores? No. Expand

Good gameplay, it had its very interesting moments, if you ignore the history; it felt really forced all of the "cycle of revenge", there were ways more better to represent it, im sure of it, the graphics were truly beatiful, but since this is a story-driven game, im focusing on this aspect for my rating, i expected more tought on the history, since this is an AAA, good game,but not an 10/10.

    História densa, motivações e escolhas dos personagens são complexas e isso enriquece a história.

What's more, I dare to say that it seems everyone is bought, no one asked how there is not a single negative comment in "crític review" section or how almost every single comment are 9 or above? In addition to how they are oddly contradicting the points that true fans complain about: the characters (Abby mainly) when there is a comment saying how we hate their poor introduction, their story and development, there are 4 or 5 more saying that they love the characters, when we complain about how the story mocks and spits in the face of the first game, they all shield themselves with the cheap excuse of: "If you don't like this game, it's because you're homophobic"
    I´m pretty sure all of us who played and loved the first game never cared that Elie was gay. On the contrary, I loved the character, but no, they had to play that dirty card, blaming the community for being intolerant, just because the game was influenced by a person (I'm not going to say her name but I think everyone already knows who she is) who ruined the story just for wanting to put a progressive psychology in our brains, something that was very useless by the way, since the points where they try to be inclusive and make us understand the characters fail so brutally that nothing matters and makes us think that this script was written by a monkey on a desk.
    A very bad game, a very bad introduction, message, story and character development, but, above all, a very bad treatment not only for the fans, but also for the workers who suffered terrible working conditions for nothing. The game´s tittle is "The Last of Us", I think it fits perfectly, because I hope that this game will be "The Last of Them"

I would give this game a 9/10 almost a 10/10. The only things keeping it from a 10 are small things really, one being that I feel the game is a bit too long and drawn out, although well paced. For a linear game having more open areas was fantastic (especially early on in Seattle) however sometimes areas were unnecessary large and a chore to search, especially when nothing useful is found. I also felt the game was too easy? Maybe because I'm already used to the mechanics from TLOU1 but I played on hard and would rarely die. Also ammo and resources were more easily found than TLOU1 meaning I always had a health kit or was able to craft one. Anyway, moving past those niggles, this game is fantastic in every other way. I completed it a few days ago and I can't shake it, I'm constantly thinking about it, I'm even dreaming about the game and characters. There are things that happen in this game that will make you so angry. And thats the point. Its a revenge story. Get mad at the person who wronged Ellie, don't get angry at the game or the writers. The writers aren't there to pander to what you want, or what you think would be best for the characters. You're along for the ride, and wow is it a wild ride. You have to allow yourself to feed into the game and it's story.

    Slight spoiler here. There is a huge narrative shift in the second half of the game. And when this happened I was with a large portion of people hating on this game. I HATED what the game was making me do. I was thinking to myself 'no way am I gonna f***ing play this'. But I did. I'm glad I did. I surprisingly found myself investing in this portion of the game and if I'm honest, some of my favourite moments are from this section (mainly talking about the epic boss battle in the hospital, WOW). I still didn't love this section, but I appreciated it for what it was and why this was happening; It was essential for the telling of this games story.

    This game as I said before, is one hell of a ride. I originally was 100% behind Ellie and her revenge mission. When she succeeded in the first revenge kill, I loved it, I was cheering her on, 'die b*tch' I remember shouting at my TV. As the game progresses, and you follow Ellie and other characters, things happen etc etc, I then found myself later on on the game BEGGING Ellie not to do things, seeing the consequences first hand, seeing what it was doing to Ellie and the people around her. When I finished the game my mum asked me 'so, out of 10 what would you give it?' And at that point right after finishing it, I genuinely didn't have a rating. That's not because I did or didn't like the game. It's because it is so much more than a game, its a beautifully crafted story that for the time you are playing through it, you are just fully immersed in the world. I was still mulling over events, reeling from certain plot points, wondering about the characters.

    I apologise if this review is written really badly, I don't really do this often, but I felt like I needed to honestly tell my experience with this game.

Here we go the last of us for me was the greatest game ever made and it is my all time favourite whilst playing it I grew to love the characters and there was always hope. This games story is bleak and depressing. The gameplay is great the visuals are great but I'm sorry the story is bad. Joel is not a stupid person and would have never of fallen for the setup but to kill him off in this manner was terrible. The game then forces you to play a character I hated and by the end I found mo satisfaction at all by letting baby go who I really hated. This is the last jedi of video games and I will.never but a naughty dog game again Expand

    This game’s story felt rushed and pointless at times and over-cumbering and drawn out at others. They make loved characters into monsters with no redeeming qualities.

I so wish Naughty Dog would have gone with a prequel to this game than a sequel, following Joel after the death of his daughter and his loss of humanity would be an interesting story to play. This game’s narrative left a bad taste in my mouth and feeling exhausted by the constantly shifting story that didn’t seem to know where it was going. Expand

El introducir personajes por cuestiones "políticamente correctas" y hacerlo el actor de todos lo actos mas violentos (e innecesarios) posicionando al mismo como uno de los personajes mas fuertes y poderosos. Donde para incluirlo y darle un origen con sentido tengan que incluso cambiar la pigmentación del cirujano que aparece en el primer juego rompiendo la continuidad para darle un minimo de coherencia y engañar a aquellos que no recuerdan esos detalles. Cuando un videojuego solo tiene como unica identidad la propaganda de inclusión y está se realiza con un argumento pobre y forzado, no es sorpresa que a muchos fanes y jugadores no les agrade, y si el mismo director piensa que el videojuego tiene como rol principal el el de "enseñar" politizando a sus jugadores en lugar de lo que siempre fue el objetivo de todo juego ENTRETENER. lamentablemente no veo futuro a un the last of us 3 y de corazon si su tercera entrega llega a ser una propaganda interactiva, prefiero que la misma muera dando como recuerdo que se debe hacer (the last of us 1) y que no (esta entrega) Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Contras:
    - La historia está llena de hoyos argumentales, clichés y un final predecible desde el capitulo 1.
    - Los personajes simples y sin carácter cosa que hace que no te puedes encariñar con ninguno.
    - Final sin sentido e incongruente con todo el desarrollo de la historia, todos esos meses y años siguiendo su venganza para dejarla escapar solo porque si.
    - Esos incómodos momentos en los que te "obligan" a jugar con Abby, un personaje que simplemente odias y te da igual su pasado, ya que todos tienen una historia triste en ese mundo post apocalíptico, no tiene nada de especial.
    - La IA sigue siendo igual de deficiente que en el primer juego

    En lineas generales, todo lo que hice bien tlou con su historia y personajes, lo arruinaron en esta segunda entrega

    Pros:

    - Gráficamente aprovecho todo el poder gráfico que pudo a la ps4.
    - La jugabilidad es casi idéntica a la del 1 y diría que es incluso mas fácil pero aun así sigue siendo entretenida.

    Bueno, pero se pudo haber aprovechado mas

    - Los perros y los enemigos gritando los nombres de sus amigos, como para intentar hacernos sentir mal fue una buena idea, pero mal implementada ya que después de la primera vez, llega a aburrir
    - La dimensión de los mapas a explorar que te hace pensar que tienes libertad de exploración, pero fue una mentira porque de todas formas debes explorar de forma lineal.

    A video game with one of the best stories ever told, with some of the most memorable, relatable characters, and a gameplay experience fitting for the retirement of a legendary console. It took balls from Naughty Dog to deliver the story the way it did but, in my opinion--it paid off.

    You don't need to take my word for it and rush off to spend $60 on it right now. Keep an open mind and wait for a sale. In the meantime, play (or replay) the first game. Revisit the characters and their motivations. You will not regret it.

My point is that this game will make you cry, all the deaths have meaning no one is safe from loss and sometimes vengance is not the answer. Losing someone you love is heartbreaking, and ellie going on this journey to get revenge for joles death is understandable but by the end you the player realise its wrong.

Game-play is also improved. For me, this is the best continuation. Most of the haters of this game are: 1) People who had spoiler content about game for themselves before its release
    2) Or people who did not understand the main message of Neil Druckmann. Revenge never leads to good. Revenge only destroys you. And it is perfectly conveyed in the game.

    Do not listen to anyone, but rather play yourself. The game is definitely not as terrible as some haters write here. For me, this is a great game.

    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]
