    nothing in level to the 1st game. the only way it relies to do anything is by shock value. nothing new or interesting about the story. not only is the story in this game bad but it completely ruins the first game for us too. if you were the fan of the 2 characters in the first game or liked its story then just don't play this and ruin it for yourself. there is a great game behind the storynothing in level to the 1st game. the only way it relies to do anything is by shock value. nothing new or interesting about the story. not only is the story in this game bad but it completely ruins the first game for us too. if you were the fan of the 2 characters in the first game or liked its story then just don't play this and ruin it for yourself. there is a great game behind the story and i feel sorry for everyone who worked on it except the plot writers.… Expand

    The graphic is impressive, which looks like what a 3A game should be like in 2020
    But the plot is ridiculous, illogical and hurts fan's heart.

    The game dashed the hopes of many players, where in the first two hours it was fun, but after that you will hate the game and play a character that you will not like and you will hate .. As for the story, you will expect what will happen but it will not happen and the situation in the game will become much worse

    A bad script can ruin the game experience. Please care about players’ feeling when you write a plot. Especially for the players who have supported TLOU for years.

    For those of us who followed the development path of 2 right from the start, you'll recall that they didn't want to rush the game in order to avoid "Bioshock 2 syndrome" and were looking for a story worth telling. Well guess what...

    Highly disrespect the first game including the fans. This game is garbage the only great thing about this game is the graphics. Story wise literally garbage. Shame on you Neil for putting politics in this game.

The main reason fans fell in love with the first game was the bond between Joel and Ellie. And they went off to kill Joel in tye first two hours of the game?? This is the GoT season 8 of video games! Rubbish. Screw Neil Drukman and his forced agendas.… Expand

    Utterly disgraceful how the story was handled. Whoever thought it was a good idea to introduce a new character with an irredeemable act against an established and loved character should be fired.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Listen i'm not here only to either hate or fanboy over this game blindly this game was pretty disappointing to be honest.This type of games have mediocre gameplay and basically a movie that depends on the story.Unlike that last of us 1 who got carried by the story and graphics this one sadly did not.This game had amazing graphics even tho i had alot of fps problemes but i get it its on console so not that big of a deal,the animations,voice acting were really well done but in this type of game it doesnt stand out because the sotry was so bad in my personal opinion the new character abby was really trash. Its not about her being mascular(or people claiming we didnt like it because of that) i actually like that part since it makes sense for her to survive but her killing all those characters and then giving us her backstory trying to make us feel empathy for her didn't work.The worst thing was ellie forgiving her and saying she doesn't want to be a murder after all those people she killed was so contradictual.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Gameplay is quite literally a carbon copy of the first game from 2013. While that's not exactly a bad thing since the first game had fun gameplay, it shows Naughty Dog's lack of initiative to innovate or try to make things more interesting and fun.

    Scenario-wise, it's a complete joke. I understand some of the appeal they were going for, but the execution was pathetic and fell flat almost the entire time, especially in the second half. There was also pointless pandering with the addition of a completely unneeded sex scene that did not serve to enhance or move the narrative forward in ANY imaginable way. I guess Naughty Dog took a page out of David Cage's book here, and it really shows... badly.    … Expand

    This **** game makes the first game look a lot more "lighter and softer" in comparison (to quote a trope from TV Tropes).

The ONE thing you do root for (revenge and justice) is taken away from you with no choice or agency. There is no catharsis, there is no humor, there is no hope, there is no kind of light, there's no kind of balance. It's all "Audience Induced Apathy" another TV Trope).

    The Walking Dead game series had its fair share of really bleak moments, but as dark as those games got, there was always SOME kind of hope to latch on to (whether it was Clementine herself, or her surrogate son AJ), there was always some kind of humor to offset tension, those games didn't constantly wallow in despair. You could have a story about "hatred", but good god, how about some kind of levity?!    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I waited 7 years for The Last of Us Part II. I tried not to expect too much, and I was right.
    In terms of gameplay, its no wonder that Naughty Dog excels at it. It has beautiful graphics and scenery, but that only makes up a small percentage of what makes a great game, especially one with a huge following such as TLOU. The characters were piss poor. Joel's confidence, problems with his past, and badass character is taken away immediately. Ellie's loveable sidekick persona becomes weak, as she comes off annoying in TLOU2. Abby is a whole other story. I can see the direction of making the audience sympathetic to her, but it turns to **** . Almost every direction taken by Druckmann is executed horribly; Joel's death could have been worthwhile and have meaning, and Ellie's goal of revenge ends up fruitless.
    The edgy theme of revenge and hate isn't done well at all; the characters are very 1D, and for a 25 hour game, everything is so quick and predictable. Representation is expected obviously, but damn...even that was done horribly too. It isn't a well written story at all, and the characters don't receive an arc despite the journey they go through. Joel deserved better.
    It's better to think of the franchise as just TLOU1 and Left Behind.    … 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]
