    It is a really well made game when you look at the graphics and how the story is delivered. But I absolutely hated the story and what the company did to 2 of my favorite gaming characters. At the end of the day I'd rather play an 8bit game with a good story and mechanics. I hated the game don't waste your money and the ending is the worst part

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game looks great and plays pretty well would have preferred 60 fps would have made the experience better. BUT the shocking story line where you make what feels like basically no progress for hours just makes the game uninteresting. Also forcing you to play as a character you hate for 10 hours is unbearable, they try and make you connect with ABBY so you understand why she kills Joel but they do it in a way which makes Joel look like a complete idiot by going into a room with unknown armed people and just outright say his name. this is a completely different character to the first game who as, weary extremely cautious and overall a great survivalist. They clearly don't listen to there audience if Neil Druckmann had even seen the PSX 2016 crowd reaction to Joel appearing then how in the world could he think the script he wrote would be accepted by most of the fans. what could have bee the best sequel to a game in the past decade was ruined by agenda pushing and forcing players to do things they don't want to do. I'll just forget this game and pretend it was never released and it ended in part one and Joel and Ellie just carried on surviving. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Everything that the first game construct was brutally demolished by a shreded blong hair monster.
    The game throw away everything especial in the last of us series ( the amazing plot, the char development etc ) and tried to make a non manicheist story that ended in a frustrating gameplay.
    Besides ,the game also make the player hate long loved chars due to non sense decisions the made
    Resume... dont spend your money in this game

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Look, if you liked LOU1, this is NOTHING like it, I LOVED the first game and this is literally on a different planet.

    The story is a boring revenge plot filled with unfulfilled characters and a story forces all the nuance that was once found in the original LOU to be squeezed out of the game to fit thier boring revenge plot storyline.

    The pacing of how the story is told is horrible, with long winded parts of the game rehashing obvious character motivations tied in with other characters that felt completely wasted. If you're a big LOU fan and have been waiting for this game, I reccomend you wait till it goes on sale or borrow it if you can to play it, that way if you end up hating it as much as I do you won't feel like you wasted a lot of money.

    Ending is super boring where nothing is achieved and you felt like you did nothing as Ellie. Joel dies in the stupidest way which is super out of character for him I mean he could of survived by using a fake name or not saying anything at all. Naughty Dogs behavior in trying silence the community is disgusting and shows they're in denial. Failure of a sequel

    A square bashing simulator with a terrible story and disappointing ending. Beautiful graphics but nothing more than I would expect from any triple A game, for reference Anthem had beautiful graphics and world building but that still warranted a low score.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A beautiful looking game and am pleased to be back in this world. However, the way they killed my boi Joel, who we followed through the first game is pure wrong. It is not like him to drop his guard like that and just describe who he is and where he lives, that’s my first problem. The second is that I did not care at all about Abby, I wanted her dead as soon as she killed my boi, and they they had the audacity of playing as Abby for 10+ hours and guilt shame us into thinking that she’s this angel for looking after a bunch of kids. Ellie has remorse for the ones she killed Abby does not. Good game **** Abby! Expand

    While Having amazing graphics and attention to detail the game in general feels like its trying to be red dead redemption 2 but failing miserably ar it, the gameplay feels outdated and clunky at times, the story is unsatisfying and all over the place, the characters act like anything but human.
    TLDR this game offers nothing new besides the graphics and what it takes from other games it does poorly

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Where do i start.... well how about waiting for 7 years to experience Ellie and Joel on another wild ride. How about being an hour into the game and having all of that hope dashed. That's what naughty dog did. It's like Druckmann was watching the walking dead and taking pointers for shock value. "oh wow look at how people responded to Negan!" Shock value story telling is cheap. Am i really supposed to believe Joel, a guy from the first game who runs over a person looking for "help" because he assumes it's an ambush, is like "oh howdy partners, y'all should spend the night at our settlement and stock up on our resources even though I don't even know you? I initially defended this game when the leaks came out because i had trust in Naughty Dog because of past games. Never would i have imagined a company of this calibre would put out such a garbage piece of storytelling. I understand killing Joel his story was winding down anyway, but to do it an hour into the game just deflated the whole entire experience for me. And not only that you have to play as the person who kills Joel for like 8-9 hours. Who made these decisons??? mother of god man it's mind boggling. They also skip any funeral or memorial service for Joel which in honesty could have softened the blow a bit. But i didn't even want to continue but i kept playing anyway. Got to a point where Ellie is caught basically in a hurricane on a boat, nearly drowns so she can go kill a member of the wolves and when she does she almost dies if i remember correctly and Tommy saves her and then they're back at the theater.........do you see where i'm going the story is all over the place it's messy and unnecessary. This game could have cut a bunch of mindless moments where you're just going around and getting dialogue events in the stadium as Abby for instance. At least give it a trophy for getting those events but no it doesn't matter. The ending of the game was also hot garbage. Ellie is living with Dina after nearly dying at the hands of Abby(who you play) and Abby says to her "if i ever see you again i'll kill you." So cut to ellie and dina living in an old home on some farm and Ellie is still feeling the effects of Joel's death to a point where it scares herself and dina. So ellie decides "No i have to finish it." At this point as a player i was like "finally let's go kill her."
    Side note lev and yara and their mom seemed like a completely pointless story line altogether because when you go to confront his mother she's already dead at the hands of Lev.
    Anyways ellie sets off to California because magically Tommy overheard that Abby was spotted in California. Santa Barbara to be exact, so she goes there rinse repeat, take out "rattlers" and get to Abby. So you finally reach Abby and Lev and her are both tied to their own crucifix basically. So Ellie cuts them down, Abby begs for her life and Ellie is ready to let them go, but she changes her mind and decides to fight Abby to the death. Ellie gets the upper hand and starts drowning Abby and lets her up and lets her go and they sail off into oblivion. Ellie goes back to the farm to discover Dina isn't there. She tries to play guitar but Abby bit off two of ellie's fingers during the fight so now she can't even do that anymore. Ellie leaves the house and the game ends. I've never felt more empty playing a game it was meant to feel a certain way but it backfired miserably. The whole Scar story line seemed wasted as well, we could have discovered they had some crazy beliefs but most of them burned sadly because of incompetent wtiting. Playing this game makes the entire events of the first game seem irrelevant, why not just kill Joel off when he landed on rebar? No, you guys made us like and care for him and took him away for shock value. Graphics and gameplay are good but thats about it

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Gráficamente, es lo mejor que tiene PS4 hasta la fecha, con mecánicas innovadoras y una banda sonora digna. La historia es algo desconcertante a veces, y creo que todos estamos de acuerdo con Ellie al principio del juego buscando una venganza. Pero mientras más indagados en la historia, más nos damos cuenta de que la venganza de Ellie no es necesaria y que está poniendo en peligro la vida de su gente.
    Llegando al final del día 3, nos enteramos que Abby sigue a Ellie, mata a Jesse y a partir de ahí nos damos cuenta del porqué de sus acciones porque literalmente nos ponemos en sus zapatos.
    Duratne el enfrentamiento en el teatro y durante la batalla final, el jugador sufre por ambas, porque desarrolla un cariño que no desea que sea destruido, y hubiera reinado concluso con ambas prácticamente ilesas, pero a Ellie no le bastaba y por querer buscar más, terminó perdiendo lo todo.

    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]
