Pq que encheção de saco Joel morreu infelizmente mas vcs esperavam o que de um cara que já matou muita gente e bateu de frente com diferentes grupos? Não foi uma morte fraca, ele não foi idiota em confiar na mulher, o cara tinha 4 anos resgatando pessoas e cuidando de uma cidade (E QUEM FALOU OS NOMES FOI O IRMÃO DELE) Foi uma cena dolorosa O JOGO É THE LAST OF US NÃO THE LAST JOEL E QUEM TÁ DANDO NOTINHA BAIXA FALANDO DE BUG E ROTEIRO SAIBAM QUE SUA HOMOFOBIA TÁ ESCORRENDO PELO CANTO DA BOCA    … Expand

    What I want to tell you is .. in final part of the game, the situation that Ellie chose to leave Dena and revenge Abby.
    I think many of players want to choose by themselves which way they want to go.. leave Dena and family for revenge Abby or stay with Dena.
    Because I think many of us think that Ellie should leave bad memories behind and start over again before things get too late.
    Because in the end, the things I saw is very lonely and too sad for me and really feel pity for Ellie too.
    Don't get my opinion too serious but I wish the game go this way, the way that players chose their result.
    thank you so much.

    Siempre finales felices, venganzas terminadas satisfactorias,historias de un bueno y un malo con la victoria siempre del protagonista.

    Este juego muestra una cruda realidad, si, un personaje legendario puede morir a palos, pero eso es lo que lo hace más real y más humano. Abby también es humana, tenía sus razones es lo que intenta transmitir el juego.

    Ellie decide no acabar su venganza porque iba a intentar perdonar a una persona que literalmente había obligado a la humanidad a escoger un camino pedregoso y accidentado por amor.

    Abby perdono la vida dos veces a Ellie, porque también estaba intentando redimirse. Ellie no debía matar a Abby ya sirvió su venganza matando a sus amigos.

    Lo que quiero decir, es que la vida es así, una puta mierda y es lo que transmite esta historia. Un golpe de dura realidad en la frente, que nos haga caer en la cuenta de que todos somos personas con nuestras motivaciones,errores.
    Que la vida es injusta, muy compleja y que en ocasiones luchamos por causas que provocan más daño que bien.

    Por eso a pesar de algún agujero en el argumento(y alguna parte tediosa) este juego me parece excelente en todos los apartados,innovador, arriesgado. Se aha atrevido a hacer lo que ninguna serie,película,juego no ha querido probar por miedo más que justificado dado lo que le está ocurriendo a este.

    Romper los esquemas y darnos una historia,dura, cruel, injusta,compleja,sentimental,incongruente en ocasiones como la vida misma.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Mis expectativas eran altísimas por lo tanto que me había gustado la primera parte, aún así el juego me gustó. Tiene muchos errores como el problema de que mucha gente no llega a empatizar con el personaje de Abby (me incluyo). Partes que pudieron durar más como la de Santa Bárbara y hacer menos duraderas otras que no eran muy relevantes para la trama principal. La muerte de Joel pienso que aunque a muchos nos dolió sirvió para dar un hincapié inicial a la historia, pero pudieron haberlo hecho de otra forma, ya que Joel no confiaba en nadie y de repente confía en alguien que acababa de conocer. El final es desolador y profundo, me deja pensando y lo va a hacer por bastante tiempo más, eso es lo que a fin de cuentas me gusta y me da tristeza. También me pareció interesante la forma de contar la historia y como esta se va desarrollando junto con los escenarios, gráficamente es excelente tanto como en la jugabilidad y la banda sonora también. Los personajes me gustaron, tanto los nuevos como los de antes. La relación de Dina con Ellie es de lo que más me agrado y el nivel de detalle del juego como por ejemplo lo del libro de astronomía en la casa de Joel para poder hablar con Ellie es impresionante. La fotografía del juego, cada imagen y cuadro me encantan. Con sus errores y todo es un muy buen juego.… Expand

    I went into TLOU 2 completely blind, without any spoilers, trailers, gameplay, leaks or anything out there before the release day. Personally, I prefer experiencing games, series, books and movies this way in order to enjoy the full experience as the creators meant it.

    Back to the game, I am a big fan of the first game, I played it 4 times. I got the second game on release day and I loved it from start to finish. I wanted to explore as much as possible and It took me around 37 hours to finish it. After it, I wanted to see how the gaming community feels about it and how similar or different my thoughts compare to theirs. I started by watching critic reviews that turned out to be unanimously positive. After it, I proceeded to check the user scores and to my surprise it was averaging at 3.5 on Metacritic with more than 20k reviews in less than 2 days. This spiked my curiosity to understand this discrepancy, so I decided to read and listen to many opinions along several platforms like YouTube, News Articles, Metacritic.

    It took me almost a week to go through the most relevant opinions I found. The majority of positive reviews dedicate time to analyze the different aspects in the game like story, technical achievements, innovations, gameplay, artistry, and so on. All this detailed analysis made me appreciate the game even more. On the contrary, the negative reviews rush to rant the one or two aspects they disliked and score the entire game based on that, which I consider it is an unrealistic way of evaluate a game so full of details.
    For what I could see, you guys are the ones to blame for ruining the story for yourselves by over analysing teasers, trailers, leaks, and info out there. I don't need to delve into a review of the story myself. There are more than enough objectively made video reviews that show the master craft in the making of this game.

    All this brought me to my conclusion and my updated score. I fully respect that we all can have different opinions, but when I see that 80% of user reviews give the game a 0/10 after just a few hours of it being released, I cannot trust what people are saying. The story can be interpreted in different ways and subjectivity has a big presence here, but that will not negate the professionally developed piece of art this game is. I am part of the digital entertainment industry and I appreciate all the hard work put behind this amazing game.

    I recommend this game to anyone willing to go through a mature realistic depiction of a post-apocalyptic world full of danger.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I pretty much enjoy ND games, and the first TLOU game is such a fantastic experience. So for this game I had high expectations coming from ND. I´m gonna shortly address the graphics, gameplay, music, sound and fun factor, those are an absolutely 10, the game is fun, graphically it´s the top for the PS4, considering how old it is, the actors do their fantastic job, and the music is exceptional as always. Story wise, it´s something completely different from what I expected as first, and personally, the story got me driven.
    Yeah, the story is dark, very dark, they show us a human tale, full of flawed and crooked humans in despair in a world turn into **** ND tells us that there are no Hollywood tropes, nor a good versus evil plot, and shows us that humans are full of shades.
    This story absolutely picks up where the first one left, and continues to its ultimate consequences, wither we like it or not, the events told in this game are very true representation of people´s strugges in a post apocalyptic world.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Impressive ...

    I waited 7 years for this game and it was all I've ever waited for. Every detail of every inch of the game is perfectly made, every move of Ellie and Abby is so realistic, in combat and when they're just walking or crawling, also every wolf, scar, runner, clicker, etc. is a unique character, with a name and with a sense of where he is standing and the people around him, they even piss off when you kill their dog; when you kill them you can see where the bullet went through, remove extremities or see half bodies after you blow them with exploding arrows or mines. Playing this game has changed everything I've known about single player campaign, which was tough after ND's Uncharted 4.

    The story played with my emotions so much, although the first part began with Joel's past and how he got to be the man who meets Ellie, when we play as Joel we get to see the bond growing because of the attachment we get towards Ellie and how in just one year he radder save her than the entire human race (kinda like the ethic debate about the train going for one or ten persons), whom we watch how his skull is smashed right in our eyes (Ellie's eyes), by a woman that then I have to play with further un the game. This is spectacular in two ways, starting with the idea of Abby, where they work in this grey personality, not black and white, that nobody should be judged as the "good guy" or "bad guy". Second, and most important, Joel made the decision of whipping a hole group of people to save Ellie (beautiful to think about because there's an argue in the game about Ellie saying she wanted her life to matter, but to Joel Ellie's life mattered more than anyone else's), this makes Abby be obsessed about finding and killing him, which she does, making now Ellie go after her. This is pretty basic, but here's the magic of the game, the path Ellie follows for revenge is dark, torturing and killing, including a pregnant woman, they use Joel flashbacks to make you feel her pain, but every crappy act she makes we can see how she's losing to the anger and not being herself (we can see in a fragment of her journal saying "Seattle still hunts me", not regarding Abby, but her own acts), after the theater scene it seemed like it was over, but the game continues to a perfect end. When Ellie is fighting Abby, just about to kill her, two things happen, we see a Joel flashback in a "is this what he'd want?" kinda way and, more importantly, Joel killed to save Ellie, Abby killed in revenge and Ellie was about to do the same, maybe the Lev was going to seek revenge against Ellie, but she stopped, she ended the Talion law, she put and end to the dark path she was going, which left horrible consequences like Tommy's leaving Maria and Dina leaving the farm and life with Ellie, she even lost the ability to play guitar.

    Gameplay: If you loved the gameplay in the first one, you'll love this. It's very similar, and if you want to play the whole game like how you played TLOU, you probably can. However, combat, traversal, and stealth have a more agile feel to it, thanks to added features such as air kills, squeezing thru tight spaces, dodging, and more. New enemy types and smarter AI ( for allies and enemies) really gives this game a more strategic and nerve-racking feel.

    Now, for the big one; the story. Without spoiling anything, the biggest thing I can say is that this game shows and handles Moral Ambiguity better than any other piece of media I have ever seen. The way it shows you both sides of the coin is something I wish more storytellers get into. It throws away the terms "good guys" and "bad guys", and leaves you with "people". People who do what is necessary and right for them. It truly shows what cruel acts in an especially cruel world can do to a person mentally, and how far hate can push someone to the edge of reason. A tragic story that will elicit plenty of emotions and reactions, and one that will be discussed for years to come. Not only does this get my vote for GOTY and the game of the generation, it gets my vote as one of the most brilliant pieces of media that has ever been made.

    Extra: The accessibility options are also next level, so plus points for that. My blind cousin was able to play a video game and for the first time, he got as much out of it as I did. These should start a trend for future games.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've never written a review for a game on Metacritic before, but I feel compelled to do so for this game. This game is obviously Naughtydog's magnum opus and I'm a fan of Naughtydog. I think they have made great, great games. TLOU part 1 was among my favorite games ever -- especially the factions MP. Of course, I was excited about this game when it was announced. I had heard of the leaks and eventually was curious to see what all the fuss was about -- because people were making a FUSS. I found a reddit thread that purported to describe what happened in the game. I read it. After reading it, I thought two things. The first was that it seemed too implausible. I hadn't seen any gameplay footage or pictures, I just had this reddit thread to go by. The second thing I thought was that even if the core of the leaks were true, I didn't worry because I knew Naughtydog would make this a great game. I brushed it off. Now here's my review of TLOU Part II. Off the bat, it was great to see Joel. You immediatley notice how beautiful the game is. Bravo. The animation of the horse riding seemed a bit clunky (at least in the beginning) but nothing to fret about. The game takes its time to develop the story, which, for fans of the series, is not a problem. You're glad to see everyone you loved from the first game show up. The new characters were a welcome addition -- but this is where I have to add the caveat that is, at this point, highly unoriginal, perhaps often overhyped, but nonetheless crucial. There is one character that, despite having spent hours playing as her, I did not care about. Let me digress by telling you that I've completed the game in 3 days of owning it. It came out last Friday, and it has been officially a week at which I am now writing this review. So I sat on it. And thought about. And thought about it some more. And my conclusion is that, while Naughtydog definitely tried something highly ambitious and different, the game ultimately collapses under its own weight. I say this hesitantly. The game was fun. The gameplay mechanics combined with beautiful graphics really made for an enjoyable experience. The boss fights were some of the most fun of any game. But I have to be realistic here. Those who purchased this game are majoratively coming directly as fans of the FIRST game. Why? The story. The gameplay is, for the most part, the same. Everyone expected updated graphics. The story is what brought people in droves to this game. So what happened there? Well... I'm not sure. I had seen interviews with the game director and other people working on the game and I can't help but feel like I was mislead, if only by a small bit. The first trailer surely made it seem like Joel was going to be okay. But towards the release, I expected him to die. Again, Naughtydog can't mess this up right? Then comes *that* scene. And..... oh, wow. I was speechless. My girlfriend who was sitting next to me watching me play, who knows almost nothing about the first game other than a brief synopsis I told her, was almost equally horrified. It was an absolutely terrible thing to watch. I told her the amount time you spend as that character in the first game and, although he made a terribly selfish and stupid decision, you grew to love him because of how much he loved Ellie. And that death .... that was worse than anything I saw in Game of Thrones. That's saying quite a lot compared to what they did to Robb Stark and Theon Grayjoy in that series. Joel's death was absolutely horrendous. I couldn't get it out of my mind throughout the entire playthrough and even after it. Given this extreme impact, when the game forced me to play 12 hours as his killer, I was so disengaged with Abby's character that after some time, I just wanted to fly through it to get to the end. Ellie's part in Santa Barbara probably contained the most fun encounters in the entire game, so my engagement was revived at this point. It was challenging and forced me to use Ellie's abilities to the utmost. And then there's the ending, which..... was ok. It was just ok. It wasn't impactful. It didn't hit me with some wise "lesson" that I think the developers were trying to hit me with. It was just.... gray. Bland. Tasteless. Even days after I completed the story, I'm still unsure how to feel about it. So at this point, I don't this taste the ending left in my mouth is going to wash away and I may be looking for something more significant when there isn't one there. The endpoint is that I'm ultimately dissapointed with how it all turned out as a complete product. And there was no MP, which again, was insanely fun in the first game. Oh well. This is as honest a review I could have given. I obviously don't care about the sexuality or gender expression of any of the characters, which I know was a cause for some to negatively review the game. That's a very dumb reason to give a game a bad review. It was how the story felt like it dedin't even have wings to spread.… Expand

Yes, the game is depressing and in many ways horrible (the story, not the game), but it is also really really good! Is the gameplay perfect? No. Is the story perfect? No. But it is still so, so good! I hate what happened in the beginning of the game, and I wanted Ellie to find and kill Abby. But then you play as Abby, and oh my gosh! I kinda ended up loving her! Not what she did, but her, as a character. And sweet little Ellie! I feel for her and my heart kept breaking for her as the story went on. This game suprised me in many ways, and had me in tears many others. Seriously! Play it, and try to stop being offended that Joel died. This game does not deserve zeroes. There have been games I personally don't like that I can still appreciate for the game it is. And this one is gritty and dark and depressing, but also beautiful in a dark way and wonderful and heartbreaking and deserving of love.… Expand

    The first 10-15 hours are MARVELOUS, playing Ellie as a badass grown up woman is so exciting. Then the game take you somewhere else by making you playing Abby, the girl that you HATE and want to kill.
    BUT after a few hours, you begin to UNDERSTAND and FEEL, why your so called enemies are doing what they doing and that manipulation is, on it's own, AWESOME

    First, you don't give a damn about killing dozens of strangers, but after you're lived with them, after fighting with them and had the privilege to know them better, your feelings become confused about them. And that's just the beginning :)

    This sequel has all the wonderful ingredients of the first game. The story is violent, but meaningful and the scene is really touching (the interactions between Joel and Ellie are SOOO GOOOD!!).
    The gameplay is almost FLAWLESS (maybe better than MGS5).

    I really encourage all Last of Us 1 gamers to buy this one and to MAKE THEIR OWN OPINION of the game and especially the story.

    I LOVE this game, despite some minor questionable choices (some characters are just here to check boxes.. and maybe some of the flashbacks are not necessary.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Game is pretty great. It does have its story issues but overall it's a great piece of work. I guess they could have done the major twist in a slightly different way, maybe reshuffle the order of play from Ellie to Abby. That said I actually loved the Abby part. Ngl originally I wasnt a fan since it felt like I was forcibly pushed out of Ellie's story, but the more I played with Abby the more I liked her. It wasnt even about me 'forgiving' her for killing Joel, she was quite a well-rounded character.
    The end is quite dark and leaves this stale feeling knowing that Ellie, who we have rooted for since the first game, does not get a happy ending but thats the good part about this game, it's quite realistic in that sense.
    My only big criticism is why on earth has no one realised that killing Ellie in the first game would have been such a stupid idea and would have most likely destroyed any potential for a vaccine???    … 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]
