    Great work for this game, thanks developers and more.

    titanic work from the studio, a lot of details not immediately noticeable to a simple player, great graphics, matured Ellie. All this about this game, I recommend spending all your time on it to all fans of the genre.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After playing the game unlike most of the people here I have really enjoyed the game from the gameplay to the graphics. Tho not as good as the first games story it’s still really good and has some interesting story choices.
    (spoilers here)
    I didn’t mind playing as Abby at the start to get us into story however I think they should should have made the part further into the game as a dlc like left behind. I still enjoyed what it added to the world and the story wasn’t sure if it was really needed i heard the LGBTQ’s repression that was added was unneeded however it never bothered me and I usually does. Overall I really loved the game and I suggest that people get it and ignore the negative reviews and make your own mind up

The direction of this game is extremely ambitious and just goes to show how impactful and innovative video games continue to be from a storytelling perspective. LGBT representation is not nearly as egregious as people make it out to be so don’t fall for any of the BS these Gamer Karens are pushing. Gameplay is at some times clunky yet functional. Nothing groundbreaking but it worked and was smooth for the most part. As expected, Naughty Dog have excelled in the visual and performance capture department offering a diverse world of highly detailed locations with a unique cast who have the same amount of complexity and character development you might find in the Red Dead Redemption series. Was overall an immersive and emotional gameplay experience that I highly recommend to anyone. 9 out of 10 Expand

    Such a emotional ride through part II. It's a sad, rage, unendurable story. And it pitches a far more chaotic, cruel world experience than part I. I hate that what Characters have to suffer, and i reminds me of my friend who committed suicide... Still, it is a strong game to bring me such a strong feeling. Good or not, you should experience yourself.

    Me parece de lo más estúpido sólo porque no fue del agrado de una persona la historia, ya califique totalmente el juego como si fuera una basura, desacreditando a todos lo artístico que tiene el juego, y la historia que tiene por detrás.

Y más aparte, que consideren esta página lo máximo para sentirse críticos cuando hay personas que ni siquiera conocen este sitio. (Apenas yo me enteré que existía y por la cantidad masiva de memes en las Redes Sociales).
    Si bien por muchos años fue esperada la entrega, parece que no fue de total agrado para quienes ven morir a uno de los personajes de la manera más "más estúpida" posible, que según merecía una mejor muerte, igualmente, no es motivo para que cuando sucede eso digan "–¡Qué porquería de juego!". Por cierto, la mayoría de jugadores pone la excusa de "inclusión forzada" también como motivo de que fue una burla, pues bien, se respeta el hecho de que no todos apoyen el movimiento LGBT, pero se nota a leguas su intolerancia haciendo comentarios que ya ofenden, y eso es lo molesto.
    En mi humilde opinión, estoy satisfecho, no puedo decir nada más que me hizo sentir emociones fuertes, me entretuve en conforme iba pasando la historia y si bien no me esperaba muchas cosas, me siento bien, y sé que invertí bien mi tiempo y mi dinero.

    I played 10 hours of the game so far. I understand that some people might not have enjoyed some events in the first couple of hours. But we must understand that just like a book we are not the owners of the characters.

    Gameplay-wise the game is being incredible it's what was expected in my opinion. The crafting is similar to the first game with some improvements. We have the ability to dodge and that is very welcome new weapon upgrades. New enemies and improved enemies with new behaviors. The game allows you to play in different ways, you can just go all forward pew pew Rambo mode.(It's hard but possible) Or you can go full stealth with a new talent tree.

    In general very few bugs so far and very smooth and fun gameplay. (I'm playing in Normal difficulty)
    Visually speaking, I'm playing on a first-generation ps4, not a ps4 pro. And Damn it's pretty, the PlayStation fans are screaming all the time, but The game looks great. The sound is also great, I found myself deeply invested in the environment trying to stealth kill some clickers and the sound definitely helped me into the emersion.

    Story-wise so far so good a bit predictable and expected, nothing new, some cliches here and there, but good fun and interesting, not the best narrative in the world. But definitely OK.

    So far I would give the game an 89 and my seal of approval.
    It's not a game for everyone, but it's definitely a great game. If you are thinking if you should buy it or not. I would say do it.
    Disclaimer: stay away from it if you don't enjoy gore. The game is very graphic. On the other hand, if you enjoy it please use a shotgun at close range

    Questo gioco è una perla da non perdere; tutte le meccaniche del primo capitolo sono presenti e migliorare. La storia è un continuo susseguirsi di vicende e di momenti in cui ti dici “No dai e adesso?”.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I found the game amazing. Nobody is talking about the mechanics, the animations, the tone, the music, the locations, the graphics, the gameplay. Everybody is focused on the story. So the game is perfect in a game-wise sense and the story has gotten so many people affected they can't shut up or agree about it.

    That in itself is a feat worthy of praise. I am too a bit disappointing Ellie had to share the spotlight, personally I'd rather see a focus on her and Dina's story, but I can see what Naughty Dog tried to do, and their intentions are magnificent. Playing the game like a candle burning at both ends is a narrative experiment I really like, even though it hampers the pacing a bit. Having both main characters fight each other fit the story, but it was really frustrating as the player because I didn't want to do it. I didn't want to, just like the characters are conflicted about the whole ordeal. That's genius.

    Overall, gameplay, music, voice, acting, tone, setting, graphics (those locations man, oh my god). All of it is STELLAR. The experimental choices made are divisive, but I for one am grateful a AAA Studio like Naughty Dog dares to shake things up.

    See, the first game had zero expectations and hit huge. It had all the freedom to do whatever it did without anyone knowing what to expect. All these years later, people claim fierce ownership of these characters and no matter what they did, some people would turn out to be disappointing anyway.

    I love this game, I love the creators and their intentions - I only wished there was more of it.

Masterpiece , you feel you’re in a whole new level of gaming You all know the story already One thing I’m gonna say is that they could have ended the game with tommy telling Ellie about Abby’s location! And then do a part 3 where Ellie would head through that journey of finding Abby for the last time and killing her , ( because of all the images of Joel and stuff in her head) and finding a reunited group of fireflys in Santa Barbara with new ways of living unlike what we’ve seen with the WLF and the seraphites I would be comfortable with playing half game Abby and half Ellie till the point that they finally meet up and Ellie kills Abby Expand

They worked for 7 goddamned years for this and they're not like Ubisoft where they release an Assassin's Creed once a year. Joel would've died anyway, don't matter that a bunch of people kill him or some infected or he simply gets old and die. Joel's death was the most important part of the game. You know what you're gonna do. Just be patient and play the game it's beautiful. Expand

La verdad es que me aburrí un poco en la parte de Abby pero comprendí porque hizo lo que hizo, ella perdió a su padre y luego a sus amigos más cercanos dándole una motivación. Para mi el final cerró el juego de una forma única, porque al Ellie dejar la guitarra en la ventana simbolizo que perdonaba a Joel por lo que hizo y por ir en su venganza ella perdió lo más bonito que le dejó Joel, la habilidad de tocar la guitarra, la parte de los créditos donde Ellie y Joel cantan la verdad es que si le saco una lagrima, un juego increíble en toda palabra.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Cada juego tiene algunos problemas menores, esto está MUY lejos del peor juego que he jugado, y sí, aunque creí que la decisión de jugar como Abby varias veces fue una elección muy peculiar. Uno con el que al principio no estaba completamente de acuerdo, pero después de completar el juego, realmente siento y entiendo las perspectivas de Ellie y Abbie. El juego y los gráficos realmente se destacan 10/10 para ese PERO, mientras que algunas de las opciones de la historia pueden parecer extrañas a veces. Al final, creo que la elección de Ellie no es que perdonó a Abby, sino que matarla no traería a Joel de regreso. Abby tuvo que vivir consigo misma sabiendo lo que había hecho si sentía remordimiento o no "probablemente no". Para concluir, aunque esta historia puede no ser para todos. Personalmente lo disfruté, las emociones en esta historia realmente me llevaron de vuelta al primer juego, ese final desgarrador realmente me pareció justo, ESTO NUNCA SIGNIFICA TENER UN FINAL FELIZ. Se supone que es una historia oscura y emotiva y siento que está casi perfectamente hecha. Gracias. 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]
