    yikes, gameplay copy&paste from first game, boring game, forgettable characters, story is trash in a story driven game. music is depressing. literally theres no redeeming qualities in this game

    Not hating because joel died, but the writing and scene from joel died not like arthur morgan..
    Do not buy this game until discount under $20
    So monotone, because in the first last of us, joel have ellie company, but in part 2, ellie is so boring..
    Gameplay is okay, just okay..    … Expand

    Total trash... I would say the graphics are this game’s only saving grace, but even would be a lie... At first glance the graphics look good. Upon further inspection however, you’ll find that while the game does have good animations (I’ll give it that) the GI is a baked solution, that honestly looks dated.

    Solid 10, there hasnt been a good game realeased in forever and ONE character death shouldn’t be the judge of the entire game no matter if it was ellie, joel, tommy or even dina. Its still a good game.

The first one was there to please the whole crowd with it’s great story. It was a story which could not be hated because it was basically mainstream , but in a good way. Part 2 is much more controversial in terms of storytelling. Agree or disagree with the first few hours of the game. It get’s better and better throughout playing and it has one of the most intense endscenes of all gaming for me. Music absolutely gorgeous and much darker than the first one. Fyi Mac Quayle from “Mr Robot” worked on the score too along with Gustavo. This sequel is much more creative than the first one in terms of gameplay. The fact alone, that enemies are crying for their shot friends is just terrifying to look at. Dog’s are crying too if you shoot their owner btw.. The only issue that I have with this game are some long passages throughout playing the second half of the game.

    Try this game with an open mind if you played the first one.

    One thing’s for sure. Player which did not play the first one are 100% satisfied with it.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story of this game was epic. I found myself enjoying playing as Abby as I wasn't so restricted on combat as I'm with Eille. People who are destroying this game cause of Joel death need a life. Why do you think Ellie gets revenge? Cause they killed her dog? Lol!! It's pretty obvious why she was going to make everyone pay.

The story was shocked and sad to see Joel dead... however what comes around goes around... the way of he dead are too struggling but it’s another fact to show whats the real world now... Revenge is just a way to create another revenge... Abby was not wrong for revenge... and it is also not wrong for Ellie to go for revenge... at least they all paying for the price... a changing make them different however i hope theres some DLC to explore the storyline between Joel & Ellie during the first 5 years... MUST BUY game if you had played part 1 previously...… Expand

    Beautiful game with gripping gameplay and an engaging and divisive story. A game like this only comes along once every few years and it's the kind of game that sits with you long after completion.

    Потрясающая, эмоциональная, грустная, жестокая, красивая - настоящая буря эмоций. Это путь, который игрок должен пройти исключительно сам, так как TLOU2 сложное, комплексное произведение, поднимающее серьёзные темы. Для меня игры - это эмоция. И если произведение приносит такие сильнейшие эмоции, то определенно абсолютный шедевр.Потрясающая, эмоциональная, грустная, жестокая, красивая - настоящая буря эмоций.

    I would say this game is as controversial as it is, because it doesn't take into account it's audience. First, I'd like to tell you readers not to trust the user score distribution. I reloaded the screen and it went from negative reviews outnumbering the positive, to the positive outnumbering the negative and the number of negative reviews going down by a few thousand.

First, I'd like to tell you readers not to trust the user score distribution. I reloaded the screen and it went from negative reviews outnumbering the positive, to the positive outnumbering the negative and the number of negative reviews going down by a few thousand. I don't know what's happening, but my review may not last long here. Firstly, I played this game because it's a gift. I never played the first, but I watched a full playthrough of it and it was enough to make me feel hopeful. This game... does not hit the same way the first did. If you want to leave with a feeling of relief and hope for the future, don't get this game. It's not what you're expecting. The user score for this game is actually not majorly negative or positive from my experience. It's very neutral. In between. The players are very split. That's because this is a game that is not really a game for it's audience.

    The reason why The Last of Us 2 isn't as great, is because it doesn't take into account it's audience. It has a good lesson, and it's executed well, but the lesson and execution does not fit the franchise. It was not created with it's audience in mind, one of the most basic things a game creator must consider. The Audience. Naughty Dog has gotten so absorbed into all the other aspects of creating a game that it has forgotten one of the most basic elements of all. The audience. It forces you to continue on a revenge storyline, which at the end, teaches you revenge is essentially bad. Sure, this is good for people who don't know what, but you can see from people's reactions, that the other half of the audience does know it.

    The reason why those who hate it hate it so much, is because it forces people who don't like revenge, to continue on the route to see what happens to a character they love. I review it as a 3/10 not because I don't care for the other aspects that they've put into it, but because they've neglected a basic element. Do note, I am not reviewing for everyone, simply for myself. It's spaghetti without tomato sauce, some people may like it, some may not. I don't review this to tell everyone it's bad, but to warn those who think alike me.

    If you are like me, and dislike revenge and would rather not be forced to carry out revenge to get it hammered in your head that it is bad, don't play it. Even if it's a gift. You will feel extremely frustrated and tired before the first hour is out.

    If you do believe revenge isn't so bad, or playing the game to see how they teach the lesson would be nice, I recommend you play it. You may enjoy it.    … Expand

The graphics, the animation, the mechanics, everything was awesome, the story at the beginning is frustrating but while you are playing you get more and more and more excited, but it stop when you take the control of Abby, i understand the message of the game that was, no one is safe, no one has an heroic end, everybody can die at any time, and the developing of Ellie of her decisions and her thirst of revenge while you start understanding the past of Abby, and when Ellie loses everything, God, you start to reflect with yourself, it's just, Wow, there are other things that are good and bad, but honestly if you start to think clearly what you've just played, is a masterpiece, Please if you read this, take a moment to think about it and review this game what it deserves, thanks and nice done Naughty Dog… Expand

    Simplesmente Perfeito! Concordo que tem alguns furos no roteiro, porém quem está dando nota muito baixa com certeza é por ser preconceituoso e não ter gostado da morte de um personagem importante no começo do jogo, a qual pra mim deu mais peso e profundidade para a história .

    Incredible, beautiful game. THIS IS A DIFFERENT GAME THAN TLOU 1. If you go in expecting the same story, you will be disappointed. It is its own story. Sure, it has a few problems, infected enemies are still less interesting than humans, but I firmly believe it deserves a 10/10.

    Music is very good.
    World design is beautiful
    I expected a more creative gameplay with more abilities but its repetitive and almost same as part 1.
    Main part and the worst part of game is story .it dosent even worth waiting this much.
    Tlou2 epilogue is the worst among Naughtydog games.it s so empty and it dosent answer any question about future.

    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]
