    Let’s be honest, the game is close to perfection. The emotional rollercoaster you experience is like nothing else. If people don’t agree with the story, please stop reading books. Take the stories as the writer made them. The acting of the characters is so good and the switch between a cutscenes and gameplay is like it should be. Naughty Dog, please don’t never change!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I like very much this game, except the Abby part because I really didn't like playing with Joel's killer. Also I didn't wanted to play when Abby almost killed Ellie in the theather. Joel's death affects me but it isn't a reason to hate the game. If I played more with Ellie and less with Abby I would love the game. Thats why I rate this game with an 8. I hope ND release a part 3!… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Its honestly not the way to go, great mechanics, and game play, but the story is horrible, why would you lie to "us" in the trailer with young joel, and also why would you make "us" play as abby, its like you're laughing at "us". If the story was joel dying early, and then the plot of Ellie getting revenge, it would be an awesome game, but you made a weird mess by making Ellie do "horrible" things to get to abby to then just forgive her, it doesn't make sense, humans dont work like that. And also not having multiplayer was was kind of disapointing, I have heard that you might add it later or as its own game, and I hope you do great on that one.… Expand

    Odiei a forma como descaracterizaram o Joel e a Ellie continuou agindo de forma imatura, mesmo após o ocorrido com o Joel, mas em relação ao gameplay, há uma notória melhoria em relação ao primeiro jogo.

    Do yourself a favour and don’t fall for the review-bombing bandwagon hate this game has received. Have the emotional intelligence to try to criticise the “protagonist’s” choices and emphasise with the “antagonist’s” struggles. Characters live and die in this game and the ending is heart-wrenching.

    It would’ve been easy to make a carbon copy of the first game where Joel and Ellie go off on some linear adventure and live happily ever after. What part II does is brave and daring with the plot and the characters, and it’s an unique experience I hope you do not miss.    … Expand

    This was the most disappointing video game of all time. The start of game builds a not great but fairly good revenge plot for protagonist Ellie.

    I think naughty dog took a risk with the story but it definitely paid off. The graphics are amazing, the gameplay is like the first game only improved and the story is what I expected. The larger areas to explore made the world feel more alive. Full of emotion and violence. Perfect

    Is it a masterpiece? No. But it is a solid game. It evolved the gameplay from the first game slightly. The story is told in a enjoyable way even though it isn't as deep as it would like you to believe. But what - for me - keeps it from being a masterpiece besides the obvious story turns is the pacing.

But what - for me - keeps it from being a masterpiece besides the obvious story turns is the pacing.

    It takes way to long and stretches everything far too much. After a while it lead to me disassociating with the character of the first half completely and just keep marching on to end it. Different to many people I enjoyed the second part a lot more than the first. There was no story ballast left from before. The second characters story - though as transparent as the first ones - had a lot of growth that was coming to her for a long time and was catalysed by the companion characters.

    The ending isn't great either. The final fight destroys a lot of what was narratively built up and then changes the gear back almost immediately as to make the whole struggle between the characters even more annoying and futile. There is nothing in the fight that should trigger the reaction it does, that shouldn't have been triggered before. Even both characters just silently parting ways would have been more impactful.

    tl;dr: With less obvious writing and a tighter pacing this game could have been exceptional. Now it's still pretty good though.    … Expand

    Truly a human experience. This game is a utter emotional ride. Dark, bleak, depressing, yet very human. Loved the ending as well. No spoilers but if you want a game that can really bring you in emotionally then you need to play it. Naughty dog were able to make a artificial world feel real and believable.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Man I had to create an account just to confirm, yes I played the game, took my time until later on the game when I just wanted it to end, I just couldn't bear anymore the game trying to push on me to like Abby, I mean you just can't after the brutal way she kills Joel, maybe if you were introduced to her first I could care about her, but not like this, the game constantly forces the hand (Ellie killing dogs, Abby pets them, fking arms like Conan, playing as Abby against Ellie is notouriously difficult just so you despise her) even the final fight they completely change the appearance of Abby, yea you say she hasn't eated and couldn't get her roids but even then the game tricks you with another braided hair NPC that looks like her, this isn't the same person that killed Joel it diminishes your anger, the flashbacks are amazing and thats because it's the story we wanted to see, heck you can even make an entire game based on new characters and thats fine but the way they presented the new characters and intertwined both stories is so wrong I just wanted it to end, I genuinely wanted to stop playing several times, and I came here to say so, I did play the game, but this is just like GoT ending.… Expand

    To be honest TLOU Part 2 does not deserve ten out of ten. But this game cannot critisized that low. Apart from it's story gameplay, visuals, animations, musics are nearly perfect. The game was in the verge of greatness but we the gaming community treated it too harshly. I'm just giving that 10 to get that game to the place it deserves.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. At first I was trying to not get on the hate bandwagon for the game, and at a point in my playthrough I’d have given it a higher score. But after finishing the game, a few things could’ve been done better. Namely, how Abby’s group got ahold of Joel, and the structure of the game. I think they could’ve made him getting captured much more believable, even if it’s just snippets throughout the games flashbacks showing how he’s gotten kinder to strangers, and is quicker to trust them after being sheltered in a community for four years. He was essentially living the high life (or at least the kind you could live in a post-apocalyptic world), and they could’ve highlighted that in certain scenes of the game a lot better.

    The other thing would be to structure the game better, and to make it so you aren’t just hopping around a three day time period and then going in to a flashback during the flashback when you play as Abby. Aside from those major gripes, the games actually very good, story and gameplay-wise, and I don’t know what people are so irrationally angry about.    … 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]
