    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Story was engaging and had plenty of heart within it. I thought some of the plot points were great and was a display of how low, revenge can bring us down. The flashbacks shown gave context and filled in the 4 year gap and had some of the most touching parts of the game and contrasted with the visceral and brutal revenge narrative. Gameplay has plenty of freedom when approaching each encounter, exploration felt rewarding as it gave notes for side stories and supplies to help with upgrades, ammo and crafting. World design and level design is phenomenal, the music is somber and but also was blood pumping tensity. My main gripe is the momentum lost at the end of Ellie’s section of the game and switches to Abby’s story, however I became invested with her drama and found her story more interesting than Ellie’s which in the end left me wanting both characters to survive as they both have lost nearly everything. Abby’s section should’ve been trimmed a bit but I understand why it was there. I still really enjoyed the game. 22 hrs of gametime… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the best games I’ve ever played. The issues that divided the fan base early on were just idiotic. In a zombie apocalypse there is no happy ending and things should not play out the way “we want.” I loved the way the game took two approaches and became a huge fan of Abby and her story. A powerful story-driven emotional - and sometimes stressful - experience. A ton of value even with one-time play through.… Expand

    I really don't know why this game is getting so much hate. The enemy/companion A.I. is rough (even on hard difficulty) and the game feels too bloated, but other than that this is a high recommendation.

    Weil ein liebloses Aufwärmen von Part 1 uns erspart blieb.

    Allerdings sind manche Rätsel zu simpel und einige Passagen einfach zu ruhig(Keine Dialoge, keine musikalische Untermalung). Wodurch mein Blick wiederum auf das stimmige und detailverliebte Setting gerichtet wurde(Absicht?).
    Mit der gleichen Hingabe für Details, wurden auch die Dialoge geschrieben, die Cutscenes inszeniert sowie der Score komponiert.
    Abgerundet durch fesselnde Charaktere und einer, von Gewalt und Chaos geprägten Geschichte. In der die Abgründe des menschlichen Handelns ihres gleichen sucht.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bueno, The Last of Us no era el juego que necesitaba una secuela, pero aquí está, y se hace presente.
    Técnicamente, cumple con sobresalientes en todos los apartados, llegando a extremos enfermizos de perfección, tanto en audio, texturas, iluminación y sombras, animaciones, colisiones, renderizado, y un sin fin de trabajo realizado por una empresa que por su ambición puede llegar a cegarse.
    Narrativamente hablando, tampoco es de los mejores juegos de la generación, puesto que la forma en la que se cuenta la historia no ha conseguido transmitir a todos los jugadores las emociones que se nos hacía sentir. Entre los fallos destaca el ritmo lento en ciertas zonas, el uso de flashbacks en partes donde no brillan como deberían, la construcción de los personajes tan lentas... Es una narrativa algo extraña, no vaga, pero de lejos la mejor.
    Está constantemente manipulándote para que cambies de opinión respecto a las decisiones de los personajes, pero la historia de que "la violencia es mala" es algo que todo el mundo sabe. Existe una dualidad que el primer juego no tenía y es que, durante el gameplay te enseñan por enésima vez que "la violencia es mala" mientras que en la historia te enseñan que "la venganza es un juego de tontos", haciendo que el juego se pueda dividir en 2 narrativas distintas y que no encajen bien (disonancia).
    La historia, sin embargo, quiere contar algo importante que, al igual que en el primer juego, no es original pero sí está bien escrita. Con personajes realistas, dos protagonistas igual de importantes e interesantes, el uso de flashbacks para contrastar las emociones de la protagonista, representaciones de colectivos que se hacen necesarias en juegos AAA y que se hacen de manera natural...
    Se trata de una historia de venganza para Ellie, sí, pero también de amor, y de lo que puedes llegar a hacer por amor a un "padre", de como te ciega, de las consecuencias de cada uno de tus actos, del perdón y de la desolación.
    También es una historia de venganza para Abby, y de perdón y redención.
    No es para nada una mala historia. Sabe lo que quiere contar, lo hace y lo hace de manera brillante.
    Otro de los aspectos positivos de este juego es su banda sonora, que si bien no brilla como en el primer juego, es igual de importante y de profunda en esta secuela.
    En el primer juego, los temas traían oscuridad, violencia, tristeza y nostalgia, pero también daba tonos esperanzadores y cálidos. En esta segunda parte, los temas muestra el odio de la protagonista, la desolación, la desesperanza, y la falta de luz. "- En qué momento dejamos de buscar la luz" dijo Abby, y ese es básicamente el tono del juego y de su música.
    Pero la BSO no solo es música extradiegética, también encontramos la guitarra, elemento con gran importancia narrativa en el viaje de Ellie, su enlace con Joel y lo poco de musicalidad que le queda a un mundo post-apocalíptico.
    En general, no es un juego de 10, tiene sus defectos muy remarcables y de los que Naughty Dog seguramente aprenderá, pero tiene virtudes, muchas virtudes, y es un juego que destaca en medio de FIFAs o Assassin's Creeds como AAA. Ha dado un golpe en la mesa y sin duda ha hecho cambios y ha tomado muchos riesgos y decisiones las cuales no todos los fans iban a aceptar o si quiera entender. Es un juego que brilla, pero puedes ver sus grietas e imperfecciones. No sería capaz de "suspender" a un juego que es mejor que la mayoría de cosas que salen estos últimos años, y creo que con el tiempo la gente sabrá valorarlo más por lo que es y no por que hizo llorar a los Gamer™ y a los inmaduros enfadados.
    En fin, que sois muy tontos si creéis que esto es un mal juego.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ставлю минус лишь по двум причинам:
    1.Трансгендер.Левая повестка в игре имеется,но ее очень мало.И я могу оправдать спокойно тему про шовинизм, волосатые подмышки,а также накаченную Эбби.Все это спокойно вписывается в лор этого мира,но не трансгендер.Человеку,который находится в религиозной секте в мире про зомби,когда надо каждую секунду думать о том как выживать персонаж размышляет о своей гендерной принадлежности.
    2.Разрабы очень кичились перед выходом игры то что противники будут между сбой общаться,называть имена друг друга,но даже когда нам в первый раз показали геймплей,там все противники были одинаковы.Так и в игре у группировки под названием шрамы/серафиты всего лишь 3-4 модельки противников. Ты убиваешь одинаковые лица.
    Это пожалуй все СИЛЬНЫЕ минусы этой игры.Сюжет,геймплей,левел дизайн,гейм дизайн великолепны.После концовки игры ты морально опустошен,это великолепное чувство.

    I sincerely just fail to see what is so bad about this games plot. I wouldn't argue that a lot of the plot depends on very deus ex machina moments, but I think that's true of most video games and films. Every Uncharted game has been absolutely littered with it, yet somehow it's just now become a problem. Either way, I love the plot in it's entirety.

    Nobody who wrote a negative review has finished the game yet.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let me get this out of the way before my review:

    Based on trophy statistics, only 25% of players (as of 6/27/2020) have finished the game. Let that sink in while you read this...

    - If you are looking for a game that gives the player the choice to change the outcome, this isn't for you.

    - Want a game that's wrapped up nicely with a bow that leaves you feeling the stress and tension resolved? Definitely not your game.

    Last of Us Part II is a story of revenge and its consequences, pain and regret. It doesn't pull any punches, and doesn't let the player feel like the "good guy" for their actions. There are no true heroes or villains, every person in the game has their story and life. So many games have you playing a protagonist you're meant to live vicariously through. They make you feel like you're the hero, and any dire actions you must make to achieve your goal is justified by what you've set out to accomplish.

    One of the biggest points of controversy in this story is actually why I praise it so much. Having the player see first hand the consequences of their actions gives wait to the story's message. Just because you like a character and have spent so much time with them doesn't mean they are inherently good, just as playing against another character doesn't make them bad. Ellie and Abby have both hurt innocent people and have brutally murdered at the expense of the innocent. They have also helped their enemies, friends, and strangers. These characters are human, they are imperfect. Not heros. Not villains.

    Let's tackle the elephant in the room: Joel's death. I felt this wan inevitable. Joel is the sole reason the world does not have a cure. The Fireflies wanted it, Ellie wanted it, but he couldn't let it happen. Just because he was (relatively) good to Ellie doesn't mean he is safe from the world around him. Eventually his actions were bound to catch up to him, and it just happened sooner than most players expected.

    I won't dive into the technical aspects of the game, as it seems everyone agrees that this is a visual masterpiece. Gameplay is solid, and players are given solid choices to be as stealthy or violent as they care to be. I'm not gonna touch the "SJW" non-controversy as it in no way detracts from the game, and it's a lazy argument primarily made by those that actually haven't finished the story.

    I highly recommend the game. I do feel like there's a bit of room to expand upon stealth, and that's the only reason I don't give it a perfect 10.    … Expand

Then came the part with Ebby that I hated mostly especial when i had to fight Ellie. Then came the secend part with Ellie I wished not happend, because I hopen she left her revenge like Ebby did. When I found Ebby and Ellie wanted to fight her no matter what, I hated Ellie. Ebby was broken and I didn't wanted to fight her. I was happy they stoped fighting and both gone there way.

The story really picks up after [spoiler] and the action also becomes a lot more fun! One of my favorite games of the year, any fan of the horror/action genres should give this a shot.

    Во мојот живот како гејмер сфатив дека многу ретко имаме луксуз да почнеме игра која се
    поврзува со нас на друго, подлабоко ниво. Игра која ќе нѐ промени. Игра која откако ќе ја завршите останувате да гледате во црниот екран со кастот без да трепнете со граден кош полн со измешани чувства незнаејќи дали ви се плаче, смее… дали сте среќни или тажни, дали во моментот сте напнати или ви олесни што конечно дојде крајот. Игра на искреност и човечност, лаги, закани и убиства, игра на избор и каење, простување и омраза. Тоа е The Last of Us Part II, последниот бисер на студиото Naughty Dog.

    | ЕПСКО ПАТЕШЕСТВИЕ
    Многу е тешко да се опише убавината на игра од ваков тип без да се направи спојлер на приказната. Затоа многу од работите ќе ги скокнам за да не ви го уништам задоволството во играњето.

    Приказната продолжува неколку години од каде што застана претходниот дел, а е скоро 25 години од првиот заразен. Ели и Џоел се стационирани во Џексот, Вајоминг во мало комјунити кое се спомнува во првиот дел. И како во секоја приказна, тргнувате на стандардна обиколка која ќе отиде во непредвидена насока. Од тука Ели тргнува во потрага по тие кои ѝ згрешиле, а со тоа и вашето патешествие.

    Инетересен момент е тоа што ТLOU2 изобилува со ретроспективи кои не се обични синематици туку мисии што ќе треба да ги играте. На таков начин се објаснуваат голем број од прашањата во однос на врските помеѓу карактерите, а ги има доволно и се напумпани со емоции и адреналин. Овој начин на раскажување прави да се внесете во приказната толку длабоко што почнувате да оформувате свое мислење за сите карактери… да ги судите, браните, живеете со нив.

    Голем дел од наративот ќе го дознаете преку дијалози. Многу морални дилеми и размислувања се протнуваат низ навидум неважните муабети со другите карактери со кои играте или ќе влезете во конфронтација.

    Одлично и ненаметливо е скоцкан системот да ви објаснат каде и што треба да правите. На пример во еден момент гледате со двоглед во далечината каде што треба да одите, нема никакви индикатори со стрелки или хајлајти на екранот туку преку разговор со другиот карактер кој е со вас дознавате што треба да се случи и да направите. Доколку погледнете во тој дел ќе се провее разговорот, доколку не… тоа е, останува некој друг да ви раскаже.

    | УМЕТНОСТА Е ВО ДЕТАЛИТЕ
    Совршенство! Деталите во играта се неверојатни. Сите зони, пејзажи, куќи, полиња, штали, рушевини, искинати сајли и цевки, сѐ е неверојатно реалистично. Ќе бидете прошетани низ сите годишни времиња. Од зимскиот Вајоминг, до зелените предградија на Сиетл во кои природата си го земала својот дел и обраснала сѐ што може....

    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]
