    I’m gutted with what Naughty Dog have put out here. We have been victims of false advertising and pure lies. From the trailers we were shown, we were expecting a game about Joel and Ellie.

We have been victims of false advertising and pure lies. From the trailers we were shown, we were expecting a game about Joel and Ellie. We didn’t get this and to make matters worse, the story is terrible, it’s jumbled together and the writing and pacing is so far off the first game, it’s almost like there has been a completely different team writing this story.

    The only good thing about this game is the gameplay and graphics. The level of detail that has gone into this is brilliant, at times I thought I was looking at real humans. The world of the last of us is great, but in a story driven franchise, when it’s not up to par, it will drag everything down with it. The ending of this game will leave you feeling angry and upset, there is nothing satisfying about it and nothing gets cleared up. It appears Naughty Dog have tried to do something different with this game, but it doesn’t work and it’s a mess. It feels like a big political statement and a message about revenge is bad being shoved in our faces.

    In my honest opinion I had to set the difficulty to very easy after the first couple of hours into this game just to get through it, it wasn’t a good experience at all. We was told by Neil Druckmann himself that the Last of Us is about Joel and Ellie, this game isn’t. I bought it as I had to play it as I consider the first game the best I’ve ever played. However, after this I will not be purchasing anything Naughty Dog put out in the future. Save yourself £60 and don’t buy it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I feel like this game did mostly everything right. It didn’t feel right to some people but it was actually well done. It did well in keeping with the first game’s ending and giving it a twisted continuation. It made it feel like Joel’s decision was bad and actually made you think if it was right or not. I feel as if every decision made by characters seemed reasonable because it actually did add up in the end. I feel as if it was a little shaky, which is why I can see all the hate towards it. But overall I believe it was a good game. Maybe the journey isn’t over yet. I would honestly like to know where Naughty Dog takes this. But I guess for now we wait. Expand

    Wonderful on every level, even in the fact that it splits gamers into two groups with their own strong feelings. A perfect mirror of what the events unfolding in the game do to the characters living through them.
    A true, bold, fearless masterpiece.

We didn't get to see her personality shine at all through all the anger and revenge. I loved abbys character and the idea of seeing her point of view, but i really wish things didn't turn out the way they did. It's not perfect, but i enjoyed it so it's a 7/10 for me. Expand

    Ici nous constatons les conséquences des choix de Joël dans le premier épisode.
    C'est le yoyo niveau sentiments, entre amour, haine, peur, stress, rage, détresse, ce jeu raconte une histoire forte que l'on n'est pas prêt d'oublier.

    Chapeau à Naugthy Dog pour avoir pris tant de risques et s'en être aussi bien sorti.
    Je l'attendais beaucoup cet épisode et je ne suis pas déçu.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you evaluate the game separately from TLOU 1, then the work itself deserves 7 points out of 10. But! But if you perceive the game as a sequel to the GAME OF THE DECADE, then this is simply a failure.

    Во второй половине игры ещё заставляют играть за персонажа который вызывает только ненависть и отвращение. Критикам явно занесли баблишка да ещё и игра рекламировалась на каналах которые смотрят дети хотя некоторым людям она своей неоправданной и бессмысленной жестокостью в кат-сценах может испортить не только настроение.

    I cannot comprehend the hate this game is getting. The graphics are the best in the console, and it’s a technical masterpiece that perfects everything the first game got right.

The graphics are the best in the console, and it’s a technical masterpiece that perfects everything the first game got right. The atmosphere, animations and the details are masterful, and by seeing this I am unable to understand the people that claim the devs don’t care about this franchise. Because of these aspects, the game is nowhere between a 0 or a 3, as I keep seeing in reviews. But let’s talk about the story. I do think it’s a bit weaker than its predecessor (which I consider unfair to judge now, given that Part I has become a legendary game in the PS community), but it’s still more engaging that 90% of the games out there. Very few games have made me feel such strong emotions as Part II has. It’s been a week since the credits rolled, and I still can’t get the game out of my mind. And yes, Part I is a very important game to me. I’ve beaten it many times and it’s definitely on my top 3. There was no point in this game where I felt like the original game and its characters were disrespected in any way, and even if I had I would not have any right to demand how this game should have been, as many are. These are Naughty Dog’s characters, not ours.
    But the game takes risks, and I completely understand that the way the story went is not what some were expecting. But for many others this has been a wonderful and emotional ride, and sadly our voice is not as heard.
    Anyway, although not being perfect (a bit too long I’d say), not many games have been as special as this one for me, and that adds a lot of value, so there goes my 10. The Last of Us Part II is not the game we expected, but I really think it’s the masterpiece that was needed.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Los gráficos de este juego me parecen impresionantes sí, pero el resto es decepcionante, después de 7 años desde el primer juego había mucho que contar sobre el pasado de Joel, sobre el tema de la cura, etcétera, sin embargo se han fijado en mayor parte en una nueva historia.
    Además había mucha polémica que no tenía que ver con el juego, los que conocíamos The last of us 1 conocimos un juego que se basaba en una buena historia, sin más.
    Además, los tráilers que sacaban al final resultaban siempre ser montajes, haciéndonos pensar que en el juego íbamos a estar mucho más con Joel cuando todo eso ha sido falso, nos han engañado y me parece mal porque hemos pagado por lo que nos habían enseñado, si luego resulta que todo lo que han enseñado es mentira pues se han quedado con nuestro dinero y nosotros nos hemos quedado decepcionados.
    Por otra parte, me parece horrible tener que pasarte la mitad del juego con la persona que ha matado a un personaje muy querido.
    Y el juego quiere enseñar que la violencia y la venganza no es la solución, a través de que te pasas todo el juego matando a un montón de gente que no conoces de nada y que en verdad no te han hecho nada a tí directamente, para al fin llegar a la persona que de verdad te ha hundido la vida y dejarla en paz, es decir que todo lo que haces en el juego y todo lo que pierdes, arriesgas y matas por el camino es en vano.
    En conclusión me parece que se tendrían que haber centrado en la historia del primer juego sin tanta polémica y no nos deberían de haber engañado.

    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]
