    graphics are pretty damn good gameplay is decent. story and characters... its a poor effort. R.I.P Joel. im rating this what it deserves. having progressive trash shoved down your throat is not going to win you any gold stars and assassinating one of the 2 original games characters for what...? id imagine the reasons are not anywhere as good as you would think. this game/sequel if you cangraphics are pretty damn good gameplay is decent. story and characters... its a poor effort. R.I.P Joel. im rating this what it deserves. having progressive trash shoved down your throat is not going to win you any gold stars and assassinating one of the 2 original games characters for what...? id imagine the reasons are not anywhere as good as you would think. this game/sequel if you can even call it that at this point is utter crap. if your thinking OMG OMG a sequel to the last of us i loved that game i have to have it. this is not what you'd think it's most likely propaganda. if you still want the ability to enjoy the first game... my verdict. DO NOT BUY… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. RIP to those who enjoyed the first game. First of all, why would you kill one of the main characters of the game? We waited 7 freakin years!!! Joel did not deserved to be brutally murdered like that. Joel did not kill abby’s father out of anger or hate. (Not to mention joel gave her father a nice and quick death) Another thing is the awful game design … Expand

    I hurts to see a game made by Naughty Dog end up like this especially coming from a huge fan of theirs. The last of us part 1 was amazing and Uncharted is my favorite gaming franchise of all time so to see it end up like this hurt me so much I created a meta critic account to give it a rating. If you played the first one for the love of God do not play part 2. It'll ruin the work of artI hurts to see a game made by Naughty Dog end up like this especially coming from a huge fan of theirs.

    I literally waited to play this game from the moment i heard it was in the making. And boy am i not impressed, in every possible way this game is a nightmare from its original self. The the worst part is getting rid of beloved characters to replace them with a bunch of lgbt ones for no reason.

    The amazing first title has nothing to do with this one, which has completely ruined the story.

    El juego tiene gráficos y sonido increíble, de lo mejor que he visto a la fecha, acompañado de una historia y jugabiliadad brutal, los personajes están muy bien desarrollados, de verdad que deja con la boca abierta en más de una ocasión, un juego crudo y sangriento. Simplemente un juego majestuoso como ya es costumbre en Naugthy Dog.

    TL;DR: I stayed loyal to Naughty Dog and got burned. Don’t make my mistake and stick to the Let’s plays unless you are a die hard fan. What “professional” reviewers don’t understand is that it doesn’t matter how crisp the visuals are and how good the game play is because the story is incredibly disappointing...

Its a shame because the gameplay is incredible and I’ll play this game again on the harder difficulties but I will absolutely skip all of the story scenes as I have no desire to endure them again. The game isn’t a 0 because it is clear the fault here is not on the graphics team or the gameplay team. The story is so broken and inconsistent based on the first game... I’m incredibly disappointed but the silver lining here is that this game gave me a greater appreciation for TLOU1. I would much rather play TLOU1 with the updated graphics and game mechanics... a man can dream … Expand

    Honestly I’m just heartbroken, there’s so much that could have been here but just wasn’t. As a queer woman, the representation didn’t bother me in the slightest and if anything I embraced it. But that is absolutely not what the vast majority of us are upset about, it’s everything else. The only moments that I was genuinely invested in were the flashbacks, and I do think that’s all the gameHonestly I’m just heartbroken, there’s so much that could have been here but just wasn’t. As a queer woman, the representation didn’t bother me in the slightest and if anything I embraced it. But that is absolutely not what the vast majority of us are upset about, it’s everything else. The only moments that I was genuinely invested in were the flashbacks, and I do think that’s all the game needed to be, not this new revenge plot. It just feels like they were trying to turn The Last of Us into something it just wasn’t, and they strayed so far away from everything that made us love the first game.

    I went into this game with completely open eyes. I didn’t see a single spoiler, thought the people who had seen the spoilers were overreacting and needed more context, was keeping a completely open mind, and had this blind faith in Naughty Dog because I genuinely believed that this would be the last studio that would screw up a story. I’m just completely devastated because of what could have been. Through the game you could see moments of it, but they’re the subplots, not the main one. The only character I felt invested in or even just found interesting was Dina, and personally I just couldn’t get enough of her. But as someone who grew up with Ellie, was a similar age and really just related to Ellie, the fact that she wasn’t on the forefront of my mind throughout this game was a big miss, and it just feels like to me that they butchered her character for the sake of a message. On top of that, it felt like they were trying to hard to compare (insert name here)‘s story to Ellie’s, and it just didn’t feel natural. Whilst I could see what they were going for, they just couldn’t pull it together, with an ending that just made me ask the question ‘what were they trying to do here ?’

    My only hope for the future is that Naughty Dog can learn from this, because I honestly think it’d kill me to see this happen to Uncharted, another series I love so freaking much. The main problem they need to learn from in my opinion is that you can’t build a story around a message you want to convey, it’s the other way around. I’m still going to support them because this (for me, at least) will be the only blip on their record of fantastic games, and I do really look forward to seeing the stories of Chloe, Sam, Nadine and even Sully continue on. I do, however, think they need to leave The Last of Us alone for the sake of their fans. TL;DR: The Last of Us: Part 2 gives me the same feeling as season 8 of Game of Thrones all over again. Everything about it is perfection EXCEPT the story, which given the fact it’s a Naughty Dog game of all studios, shouldn’t be the case. And like season 8 of Game of Thrones, part of me wants to just forget it existed in order to restore the legacy of the original seasons/story    … Expand

    Parte Tecnica do Jogo é Incrivel de mais, o que cagou tudo foi a Historia, que se vc excluir o Romancesinho de adolescente, e pegar da Morte do Joel. até o Encontro da Ellie com a Assasina é incrivel, depois disso é so Ladeira a Baixo, terminei o Jogo Chorando, pra ver se meus olhos ainda funcionavam, depois de ver tanta merda

    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]
