    excelente juego, logra generar desesperanza y una gran angustia en el/la jugadora/a. Hay decisiones bastante arriesgadas (no todas acertadas) pero se agradece y se comprende al 100% el mensaje del juego

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story is not as good as the one from the first game but it is well told. The engine of Ellie's adventure is Joel being killed and that works; but the way we arrive to Joel being killed by Abby is not so convincing. And the engine of Abby's tale is his father being killed by Joel. And that works till' the two paths encounter each other. Then a lot of sense is lost. Graphics are so good and playability tops the first game. Plus you can play it again and is almost guaranteed it is not going to be the same experience. So it is an excellent game with a not so good (but also not bad at all) story. Expand

    Me encanto el juego en si, gameplay, historia, desarrollo de personajes por así decir. Obvio tiene sus fallas pero son nulas, quizás si se hubiese organizado de diferente forma las cosas que pasaban quizás hacia que funcione mejor todo, pero la verdad es un juego que si vale la pena jugar, pasas por muchas cosas el juego te hace sentir de todo un poco. Buen guion.

I absolutely loved it! The Last Of Us had been my favorite gaming experience since first playing on the PS3 back in 2013, and I'm so close to calling this my favorite! Expand

Buena historia la cual si la piensas realmente tiene sentido, el personaje de Abby esta muy bien construido, solo por lo sucedido con J no significa que sea mal personaje, lo que si que se nota es que han querido meter con "calzador" A los distintos colectivos , creo que quedó forzado,.

    El juego lo único que veo que quiere hacerte entender es que la venganza no es la solución a los problemas porque tras una venganza vendrá otra y con el ojo por ojo todos ciegos no veo nada de inclusión ni nada forzado.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last Of Us 2 is probably one of my favorite games to date. I was in love with The Last Of Us when it first came out and then after hearing about this I was astatic. The game had a great story and great area design/build. I also like the twist where we play as Abby, as it gives us the perspective of another character and can completely change the way we feel about the characters we have been playing to begin with. Although the ending may have been a bit sour to me, I still find the game overall amazing and an absolute must play for anyone who wants a good story telling game. Expand

Bien, hablando de la historia, creo que es buena pero no excelente, tiene momentos tristes, de enojo, escenas impactantes pero creo que le faltó ser un poco mas dinámico, pasando a la historia de abby, es buena pero pasando algunas horas se siente bastante pesada y se pierde un poco la esencia del juego, hubo algunas partes que aunque no fueron aburridas si las sentí un poco de relleno y en otras parecía que estaba jugando resident evil, otro punto negativo es que pierdes mucho el tiempo looteando, eso si quieres mejorar tus armas y conseguir los coleccionables, pero si esto no te importa puedes pasar de largo. El final creo que fue justo para los dos personajes pero fue un poco forzado el capitulo anterior antes de llegar al final. Fuera de eso, creo que es un gran juego, pero no excelente en cuanto a la historia, pudieron recortar unas horas y no pasaba nada. En fin, yo le daría un 85/100. Expand

    The game is great. Minus the Abby gameplay/storyline. I just could not get into the play as abby part. What was the purpose? To get some kind of connection to her so you can maybe have sympathy for her when she goes after Ellie? That whole part of the game was just a please lets get back to ellie portion. Went on way to long. It almost caused me to lose interest in it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Big improvements in gameplay from the first installment. The story may have gone in a direction that a lot of people disagree with, but if you just get over that fact the story that they went with is solid and leaves an interesting possibility for a future game. I loved that both playable characters had their own unique weapons, skills, and both had a distinctly different feel to them. A lot of the criticisms I had heard prior to playing the game are simply not true, I Waited for and looked for certain things To show up that people had issues with and they never came up. Definitely recommend. Expand

    Although the scavenging got old, this game exhibited masterful storytelling with a powerfully emotional punch, more so than angry movie or game I've experienced in a long time. The combat was immersive and felt great, and it is the best-looking, most detailed game I've ever played in my 30 years of gaming.

    I'm astounded by the accusations leveled against this game. At first, I was worried

    I'm astounded by the accusations leveled against this game. At first, I was worried about the negative criticisms of the story, but I wanted to see for myself. I heard Joel was done injustice by the writers, the story had big plot holes, and it was a SJW agenda.

    I dont think any of that was true. Dont let leak videos or youtubers, who thrive on controvsery and drama, inform your opinion on this game.

    Play it for yourself. You owe yourself and Naughty Dog that much.

    I am giving a nine to the game because I loved the gameplay,graphics,gunplay and old character's new stories but I will NEVER EVER give a ten to the game because they killed my favorite character Joel and to be honest his death was absolutely silly and that sucks for me but I really liked the entire game.
    But the last thing I wanna say I completely respect the other people's opinions

    The Last of Us Part II is a story about the best and worst things love can do. The first game ultimately falls apart, if you can not connect to Ellie on an emotional level.

    Is beautiful and horrifying. Sweet and bitter (mostly bitter).
    it's an experience that everyone should experience. You may like it, you may not. You may love it, you may hate it, but something is sure... You will be touched for all the things that will left for you.

    Die Story ist nahezu Perfekt.
    Das Gameplay wurde im Vergleich zum ersten Teil deutlich verbessert und an den richtigen Stellen verfeinert.

    Absolut empfehlenswert. Wenn auch nicht alles perfekt ist.
    Teilweise wirkt die Story etwas gestreckt und verliert sich zwischendrin etwas.

    Danke Naughty Dog für dieses schonungslose Meisterwerk.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Loved every second of this game. From sounds, graphics, story and character development to ellies flashbacks and Joel’s death. The development between characters and even less important ones seemed so life like. Only a 9 not a 10 because I get emotionally invested in everything and cried at the end. I got upset only because the characters were brought to life and felt so real in this game, so much I didn’t like how Ellie ended up alone after the first game she told Sam that was her biggest fear.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Astounding and emotional. It seems one aspect which reviewers are very critical of is the supposed SJW agenda forced upon players by the devil Neil Druckmann. Having finished the game just once my reaction to this is that the inclusion of a same-sex relationship, 'transgender' child, a very muscular female 'antagonist', and the like never felt awkwardly incorporated.

    Unfortunately, the above seems to be the most prevalent talking point regarding the story of The Last of Us Part II. The story explores revenge, among other themes, through Ellie and Abby, and while I do not feel that it was executed perfectly, it left a strong impression on me and has cemented itself as a masterpiece of video game storytelling alongside The Last of Us.

    The gameplay will feel familiar to those who played the original. The extra movement options, animations, and the opportunities brought by these feel incredibly intuitive and make the PS3 classic seem a step behind in comparison.

    Regarding the pacing

    Despite feeling qualified enough to leave a brief review I look forward to replaying the game, be it New Game Plus or otherwise,

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have now finally finished the game after 33 hours, and I feel ready to give my review. With every game I play, I always look for certain key points: Story, Dialogue, Characters, Details, Gameplay, Graphics, Music/Audio, Meaning/Emotion and Afterthought. For me, The Last of Us Part 2 is revolutionary is every single key point, and I don't need to write a novel about how beautiful the game is, how awesome the gameplay is or how extreamly detailed it is. No one thinks otherwise, no matter how much someone dislikes the story. The main theme of the story is "the different sides to a conflict". And it's kind of poetic, that this is exactly what is happening to the games fan base right now. To understand the message Naughty and Co. Is trying to give, there is a point to consider from the first game: The final scene with Ellie and Joel, we hear Ellie talk about her time after her and Riley getting bit. Ellie talks about her waiting to die, and we get a feeling the reason she's been this happy and positive kid throughout the entire game, was because she felt her time was overdue.
    And by giving her immunity to the Fireflies, her (and Rileys) death would mean something. Her life would have meant something. And Joel took this away from her. So when the thing with Joel happened in Part 2, her old feelings of needing her life to matter, returned. Including the feeling of impending doom/knowing you will die soon. She already had a sort of PTSD long before Part 2. When she finally reach Abby, and actually are mere seconds away from getting what she wants, and what she thinks will put the visions of Joel's bloody and lifeless body to rest, she still sees Joel. The PTSD visions doesn't go away by doing this. And when Abby is dead, then what? Will the act of killing her be the one thing that makes Ellie's life have meaning? Does she have to replace Abby with someone new, for Ellie's life to have meaning?

    The final scene is Ellie leaving Joel's Guitar, and leaving the farm. She has finally let him go. Let him rest, and now will try to find a new meaning with her life. Maybe Dina? Little Potato? Back to Jackson? We may never know, but that's the beauty of it all. Another thing worth mentioning: Neither Abby or Ellie know why any of them is after each other. Ellie doesn't know Joel killed Abby's dad, and Abby doesn't know Ellie was the immune girl. What would have happened if they had just talked about it? Sometimes the refusal to listen to each other's motivation in a conflict, can destroy entire communities and families, and if we just listen to each other, we may actually find peace for once.

    This game is great. It follows up the first game realistically and takes everything that made it good and makes it better. There was one single story beat near the end that I felt was unnecessary, so that is why I decided to rate 9 instead of 10. But it's amazing, and every moment is well deserved.

    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]
