    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I firmly believe and after having played the game 3 times, which is a very good game, its technical and sound section is perfect, its gameplay is as fun as the first, but this one perfects it excellently, the music is magical and always transmits everything a splendid feeling, the story, I think it is good, maybe it is not a masterpiece like the first The Last Of Us but it is very good, I understand that the player does not like it in the first instance, I hated it the first Once, but after playing it a second time and analyzing everything, I concluded that if it really transmits so many feelings to you and in such a faithful way, hate, courage, violence, sadness, tiredness, just magnificent. Maybe Abby's character is the worst of all, and that's what makes me give her a 9 instead of a 10 but I sincerely believe that Naugthy Dog did an excellent job for the rest. My only point against it is that Abby's development was not the best it could have been, maybe if they had presented him before seeing how he kills Joel, the player could have better sympathized with him.
    In short, The Last of Us Part 2 is a very good game, I could say that it far exceeds the first The Last Of Us in most sections.
    the only thing that remains just a little below is in the field of history, just a little.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I’m a huge naughty dog fan so this one hurts but it needs to be written. The original was a masterpiece so I could not wait for a sequel. 7 long years later and finally it’s here. The game is visually stunning, the gameplay is similar to the original with a few new additions and a few items have been removed. The major issue with this game is the story. I feel as gamers that we develop a relationship with the main characters that is far more deep and complex than that of characters in a movie. As a grown man I feel that it is in our DNA to want to look after and protect the people in our lives and we fully experienced the ups and downs of doing this in part 1 when playing as Joel. They have taken that from us. Wesley on we witness one of our favourite game characters being beaten to death with a golf club. After everything we went through we wait 7 years for this! The enthusiasm to play the game instantly drains from the player. We’re then forced to play as the person that murdered our favourite character. We do not want to play as this person. We want them dead, erased from history like this sequel never happened. The series is ruined. There will be zero interest in a 3rd title and I’ll have serious doubts about ever buying a naughty dog game again that from us… Expand

Game mechanics graphics are top-notch but the story Joel dying like a wimp and from the first game Joe never trusted anybody and to be put in that situation in this game basically dumb down Joel as a to knock him off the game the message to me was everything Joel did didn't matter to her and I let the other person go at the end just means that they'll come back and try to kill Ellie it was leaning towards Revenge story that fell flat at the end… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Technically the game is pretty decent but I personally was disappointed caz of main story. It repeats 1 part like killing crucial character. No doubt Joel deserved be dead considering what he's done to people before but the fact that he and Tommy told unknown people their names so easily makes me sad. The whole story of Abby is garbage as for me. The only thing you want all the game is to kill her but the game tries to change your ming unsuccessfully. She kills her ex-mates for Lev so easily and without a doubt like a butcher. There is a long break between 2 story lines of Ellie and Abby so can loose the story line. They should have mixed chapters or show Abby's story before Joel's death so we can understand her feelings and actions. However we just want to kill Abby as fast as we can. That's why people confused about the epilog when Ellie decides to let Abby go. We just can't take it. Well in my mind it should be 2 dialogue phrases to choose for Ellie talking with Joel in the night. The first means she won't forgive him and all of the well-known thing happen and the second phrase ( unlocks after passing unlucky ending perhaps) whe she forgives him and they go together nex morning in patrol (happy ending). This would be the logical continuation of the last of us part 1. I'm very sad about what I've seen. Like separate game it's OK but considering 1 part it's total garbage in terms of the story and how it failed...… Expand

    Poor gameplay, stupid plot and motives. Everybody sick and tired from feminism propaganda and “women power”. 4 points tanks to beautiful picture and hard work of artists, otherwise it deserves 1 out of 10. P.S. I am a woman.

    What an emotional rollercoaster ride. The story perfectly displays raw emotion in it's most primal form. The characters were all stellar. If you were expecting a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.

    This is not a movie, it’s video game. Play it and you’ll see why I have this a 10.

    I can also see why people are mad that Joel died the way he did but you guys do realise this is a survival world not a Nickelodeon show.....

    Additionally, people are complaining about the LGBT aspect of things. What LGBT aspect? Ellie likes girls and that’s the end of it there, nothing is forced.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spoilers. This game is probably one of the worst stories I have ever experienced. Honestly I am so disappointed with naughty dog and I just wish this game never existed in the first place. First of all, there was absolutely no need for a sequel because the game should have just ended with Ellie and Joel arriving at Jackson. If they really wanted to make a sequel then they should have just made a DLC where they don't kill Joel like its nothing and make a completely new character which shows up out of nowhere. The thing that makes the game so bad isn't just the fact that they killed Joel but the fact that they made Ellie dislike him because he tried to save a childs life. Why would you make her dislike him when shes too young to even decide for herself? Whats even worse is that naughty dog puts 8 hours of gameplay with Abby, the character that shouldn't have even existed and that is utterly despised for murdering Joel. I find this part truly disgusting because they tried to make us have sympathy for her? Why the **** would you do that naughty dog? This part of the game just makes me hate her more and makes me feel 0 sympathy towards her. I honestly wish someone questioned Neil Druckmann when he was making up this story, if he was actually sane at the time of creating the storyline. Lastly I beg you not to play this game if you wish to continue liking the last of us franchise because the sequel ruined it for me. Thank you naughty dog for ruining a game that was amazing.… 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]
