    Huge disappointment from TLOU, and the worst part of this game came directly from the story telling.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Muchas espectativas en un comienzo , pero bastante decepcionante al jugarlo.

    Mis puntos de acuerdo al juego:
    1.-La muerte de Joel:

    Empezare por la muerte de Joel, en el 1er juego se nos habia demostrado que el tipo no confiaba mucho de cualquier persona, tanto que le costo agarrar confianza con Ellie. Y de repente en la parte dos conoce a una tipa como si nada, en una situación para nada forzada para que se apoyen un poco, y sin dudarlo va a acompañarla donde esta su grupo nada mas conocerla, y termina en su muerte.

    2.- Los amigos de Ellie:

    El chino, es muy poca la información de el porque es tan amigo de Ellie, a la vez que solo es un personaje de relleno el cual despues de morir, no se le hace mencion alguna y pasa a ser olvidado rápidamente.

    La novia de Ellie, no tengo problema con este tipo de relaciones, pero tambien una cosa es saber justificar su relación, la construcción de su amor es bastante baga.

    Los demas, no hay mucho que decir, es lo mismo que lo anterior, pero peor.

    3.-La historia:

    En resumen esta se basa en la venganza, pero al final todo termina que la venganza es mala, tirando todo lo visto en el juego (Ellie mataste a medio mundo para no hacer nada al final). Y tambien que justamente que la 2da protagonista sea la hija del medico que mato Joel en la primera parte es bastante forzado.

    No es un mal juego, pero es mas recomendable jugar el primero.    … Expand

    I certainly loved the first game, but after 7 years of waiting, when I finally finished the Part 2, I realized, although it has one of the best graphics of all time, but undoubtedly is a piece of trash from the point of storytelling and a completely time-wasting experience، and I wish it never existed...

    Спасибо, что удалили мою оценку. Я всё ещё считаю игру парашей. Люди, которые говорят, что её нужно оценивать за глубокий сюжет- недоразвитые дети, которые до этого играли только в Майнкрафт и ксго.

    It's really a pity, that a 10/10 game with superb storytelling got review bombed so badly, by people driven 100% ideologically, who - in most cases - didn't even play the game, just blindly dropping 1/10 or 0/10 "bEcAuSe hOmOsExUaLiTy bAd aNd sToRy wEnT nOt ThE wAy i wOuLd lIeK huRR dUrr".

    The negative reviews of this game are mostly by people who haven’t even played the game and just want to jump on the hate bandwagon. Objectively the game is at least a 7 due to how technically impressive it is. Top tier graphics, animations, sound design, accessibility, acting performances, enemy AI, physics, and gameplay systems make this an incredible game worth experiencing. The storyThe negative reviews of this game are mostly by people who haven’t even played the game and just want to jump on the hate bandwagon. Objectively the game is at least a 7 due to how technically impressive it is. Top tier graphics, animations, sound design, accessibility, acting performances, enemy AI, physics, and gameplay systems make this an incredible game worth experiencing. The story can be hit or miss for some, but it is not objectively bad as it has little to no plot holes and is well written for the most part. It may be a little disappointing for some if you were expecting a repeat of the first game. Regardless, I think this game is not deserving as much hate as it has gotten. The plot and characters are engaging and invoke many emotions in you, while also challenging some of your instinctive emotions and feelings. However, the tone of the story is very dark, so it may not be for everybody. The gameplay and level design is superb with some very intense enemy encounters due to Naughty Dog crafting some of the best AI I have seen in a game that seem like real people. Graphics are stunning. Animations are lifelike. Gameplay is fun, responsive, and intuitive. Sound design is phenomenal as well with gun shot effects in particular being very well done. The infected are scarier than ever with improved models and even better sound design than the first game. Sound track is also great and suits the themes well in the game. Overall, despite me being a little disappointed with the direction of the story it’s hard to talk bad about this game when it does so much right. I would give the first game a 10/10 just because I preferred the tone of the story better and I liked the characters a little bit better. This game I would give a 9/10 due to some pacing problems and darker tone of the story with less appealing characters. Definitely recommended this game though.… Expand

Its amazing how    There's a lot to say about this game because there's so many different things that make it enjoyable to different kinds of players. I'll just briefly mention the 3 most important things that just make this game stand out (in my opinion).

    1: The sheer visual quality of the game.
    This game is beautiful. The quality of the graphics is honestly one of the best out there. Its amazing how even running on a PS4 it can push the visual this far (I have the standard PS4, not the Pro). Many times while playing I would just stop and just look at the scenarios, at the way the water changes how skins look, how the plants move dynamically in such a natural way, etc. Everything looks really, really good and really, really real. It's not an open world game, you have specific paths to follow in each part; so the developers were able to focus on every tiny detail of every tiny corner in the game. The characters look phenomenal from a technical standpoint. When I played the first The Last of Us some years ago I was blown away by the visuals, and now, years later, I felt the same again with Part II, even with high expectations. I would pay for this game again if I could play it on a high end PC.

    If you find enjoyment in things simply for their aesthetic value, this game is gonna make you really happy.

    2: Really fun gameplay.
    This game is simply fun. The combat evolved a lot from the first game, but it still feels like playing The Last of Us. Even if you don't care about the story, the game is still very entertaining (even though some cut-scenes might feel a bit too long or boring if you're not here for the story). You have a real sense of risk-versus-reward when choosing how to approach enemies. Resources are scarce like in the first game, and sneaking, distracting and ambushing enemies is extremely rewarding and and at the same time nerve-wrecking. Most of the time while sneaking I was at the edge of my seat, listening to steps and movements, nervously planing each new step, trying not to be seen. But when you fail being quite, the combat just becomes brutal. The fights are really intense, being it a ranged gun fight or a close contact combat. Enemies are smart and sometimes unpredictable, but the human enemies' A.I. can just sometimes be a little dumb, but not to the point where it throws you off, while combating the zombies is pretty much like it was on the first game (with a feel surprising exceptions, no spoiler though). You also have puzzles to solve to get through some parts, but they are not too complicated.

    3: Most importantly, the story.
    The is where this game stands out the most from the first one. Yes, the visuals are a lot better and the gameplay is more fun, but the story is what makes Part II a proper sequel. I feel like this game is a lot more mature, and the path the writers chose to follow with this story is a lot riskier than what we saw in the first game. Riskier, but so well executed. The writing here is so much better crafted than many movies coming from Hollywood. Characters go through real development (especially Joel), while keeping the same traits that made them unique in the first place. The game drags the player into the characters' shoes, and makes us feel the same pain and burden anyone would be subject to feel in such a post apocalyptic world. Loss is real, and so are the small accomplishments from the characters throughout the game. The theme of vengeance is as present and intense as the theme of forgiveness and acceptance, and every character's decisions are organic and relatable in a way that their actions and and motivations make them feel more human than the realistic graphics were able to. Even the parts that are not surprising or unexpected carry a weight that makes them memorable. The simplicity of the very end of the game makes it perfect. All the internal struggles and battles, the plot twists and narratives that were so carefully written, conclude in a simple, yet beautifully executed end. The way I felt finishing this game for the first time was similar to the way I feel when I finish a good book: first, that weird emptiness inside caused from the realization that it's over; second, the sudden appreciation for every single character we got to know so deeply and every single event we experienced with them. Amazing gameplay and graphics don't cause this feeling, only experiencing a good story for the first time can cause it, and this is what makes this game unique.

    This game is brutal, and yet so beautiful. It was the perfect way to end the PS4 generation, and it just blasts my expectations for the PS5 generation through the roof.    … 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]
