    Gráficos lindos, gameplay muito boa, pena que a maior parte do tempo apenas andamos, quando começa a ação fica bom. Enredo lixo, estragando tudo o que foi criado no primeiro jogo para dar lugar a agenda ideológica, se resumindo a um jogo de propaganda apenas.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Im in the middle but more on the low end of this, i get the message they were trying to convey, but man it was handled poorly. If you love Joel and Ellie from the first game, youre shocked when you play this game because they lose literally everything. All i wanted was a continuation of their relationship based off the ending of the first, but its barely touched upon. Meanwhile the other half of the game is playing as a new character and trying to get you to grow and like this character, but shes boring along with the characters they introduced with her story. Ellie and Joel is "The Last of Us" and i feel that this "Part 2" doesnt stay true to that.… Expand

That being said I along with many other people had a problem with the story. Yes I hated it when Joel died, yes I hated playing as abby but the biggest problem for me was the ending.the lack of a choice is the absolute worst thing by not letting me decide if I wanted to spare abby or not it made the 2 things I disliked about the game that much worse maybe I would have spared abby or maybe not but l wasn't given the chance to figure it out on my own.… Expand

    The game has amazing graphics, amazing cinematic and not bad gameplay, but has a terrible story telling , but we all know graphics are that important like good story so i give only 4 . Hopefully they delete this part and creat new part 2 because it's sucks .

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was pretty hyped for this game. Now, I feel like I have never been so much lied to. First part of the game is as good as the previous TLoU. However, the more you play, the more the game trailers turn out to be fake. In the middle of the game you get to control the character you don't even care about and actually want her to die. All the joy is gone and it's just mindless rushing to the end of the level. What's worse, it has never been stated in trailers until the plot leak. Naughty Dog edited the trailers so as they do not resemble the actual game plot at all. I feel personally insulted with the way the developers advertised the game and the terrible abomination they finally delivered.… Expand

    Cara que decepção,esse jogo podia ser o melhor da geração mas conseguiu virar umas das piores continuações,deram mais atenção pra uma npc do que para os personagens principais do primeiro jogo,o cenário é bonito mas com muitas falhas que não tinha em Uncharted 4 ou The last of us 1,o combate é bom e o tiroteio também mas o principal que era a históriaseles destruiram

Nothing like I had hoped it would be,the game forces me to kill hundreds people and dogs then at the end when i finally have someone i want to kill they are protected by devs. Looks amazing but nothing else was that great, I had big fps drops and a couple crashes, I felt that I was not as free to go where or do missions as i had hoped for, I really wanted the combat to be changed or more offered i found it got old for me very fast, the way characters we have known just felt different/behaved differently then in last game. In the end i really thought i would be blown away from the story of the game and i was left disappointed.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story proves Joel made the wrong decision at the end of the last game. Joel doomed humanity but at least you could say he gained a daughter but no he dies thinking that Ellie hates him until the end. Ellie loses everything and ends up alone which makes her story pretty pointless. Abby’s story was so boring I almost didn’t want to continue playing, literally nothing about her worked.… Expand

    the worse of all, is that the Gamer Community is indeed: a very toxic group, that still has lots to learn about things like; respect, minorities, and other things that goes against their opinion, which ends being the perfect "Shield" for Drunkman and the company to use this to justify their terrible work here    … Expand

    Last of Us 2 is a beautiful game whose potential was squandered by poor narrative design. Ignore complaints about LGBTQ matters, or who dies when, or ‘agenda-pushing’. That is all nonsense that distracts from the fundamental flaws of this game which are:

    Pacing. (Severely padded gameplay, slow pace with nothing to show for your time and sudden complete halts.) Order of events. (This game    Last of Us 2 is a beautiful game whose potential was squandered by poor narrative design. Ignore complaints about LGBTQ matters, or who dies when, or ‘agenda-pushing’. That is all nonsense that distracts from the fundamental flaws of this game which are:

    Pacing. (Severely padded gameplay, slow pace with nothing to show for your time and sudden complete halts.)

    Order of events. (This game often shows scenes or has you play events out of order and suffers for it. It manages to spoil itself within twenty minutes of starting the game and interrupts high-tension moments with many hours of past events that no longer matter.) Character development. (Or lack thereof. They come close to it for one character, briefly, but it rings false (and is called out as such by another character) due to that character otherwise always presenting as self-centred, callous and ruthless. Other characters start at Point A and never leave it or change in any way. Characters in general do not learn from their mistakes, big or small. Some characters have sudden, unexplained personality shifts.)

    Chemistry. (There is none. This likely due to all of the above factors. A couple who come close are let down by bizarrely awkward lines and sudden topic changes, as though a clumsy editor cut whole chunks of conversation out. The main ‘romance’ starts at the beginning of the game and tries to sell us that they totally love each other, because... they just got together. Frustratingly, only a few minor changes could have fixed this.)

    Plot. (The story is simple and that isn’t always a negative thing. But, when the story is simple, sub-plots become critical. This game really only has one sub-plot, towards the end (which was well done). The lack of it throughout most of the rest of the game makes the (beautiful) world around you seem empty and pointless. The simple main story is laughably predictable (when it doesn’t spoil itself outright) and utterly fails to engage.)


    Ultimately, this game is boring. Don’t bother buying it. Find some poor fan who is giving their copy away and try to just enjoy pretty skyboxes and passable stealth combat mechanics.    … Expand

    2020 is a trash year with covid-19, but this game is a **** mistake because of too many superfluous moments where the story is in breakdown moments or where the moral is that more angry tou are more you have possibility to become lost and felt lost when I played this game. The worst thing thing I hate about this game is that at the end Elllie have to kill someone who hurt her by past and the **** is that Neil Druckmann didn't give choice to Ellie to kill or not. That my **** question, why didn't you, Neil, do that to players? this should have done a really better game. To finish, if you just want a 10/10 graphic with 9/10 in action game, this could be yours but if you want a really part 2 of the last of us with a respect of the legendary first opus, this couldn't give the same fellings. If you remove this game's name, that seems a truly other game however much bad that good    … Expand

    The direction they went with this story completely ruined the franchise. Plus the demo they showed at a conference completely suggested the story would go differently. Gameplay is great and much like TLOU1.
    Graphics are incredible.
    Level design is nice.
    Music is good.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. never experienced a game where I the player had so much **** hate at the **** writing and ideas and ideologies and even the message, like I want to Ellie to feel what I felt when I popped up a **** wolf with a shotgun to the face.

    disgusted but furious like **** man, we live in a world of endurance and surviving if ain't them its me, and I chose them.

    yeah, I get it revenge was so **** written poorly that they made me feel like why in the **** are you making me hate this?

    why are you making me play as Abby?

    do you think I would care about her after hating her guts for 12 hours?

    like i am a big **** **** i would not pet a dog i just saw her **** kill Joel after he saved her life.

    AND THE BS DEATH OF JOEL ? AND ABBY AND ALL THE GANG OF HERS ARE SOMEHOW FORGOT THAT THEY LIVE IN A WORLD OF APOCALYPSE? LIKE MAKING TOMMY GO ? ELLIE GO ? like make Ellie find the body after they are done not that poor writing of " We are good people **** killing a human is the worst thing ever, but you get over it after killing a ton, since she is one of the "the best at killing scars"

    like I would get it if they said they were fireflies to Joel, like I would be so **** messed up about it that I get it, what Joel did was wrong, but to make Ellie lose everything and spit on my **** face with a **** fan fiction writing like this is just a big **** you from Neil,

    JESSE. AND **** TOMMY ? LIKE HE WENT TO KILL THEM SO ELLIE WOULD BE SAFE NOT FOR REVENGE IN THE FIRST TIME!

    all the male characters where done dirty, like manny dies Abby doesn't care after 5 seconds, Jesse dies no one cares, Tommy somehow **** survived and i **** wish he died since they did him **** dirty.

    but oh boy Ellie just ****ed up and killed a pregnant woman who didn't say anything to save her life, like the first thing she said

    " how we know you wouldn't kill us" **** just **** say where she was since you obviously hate Abby ! and do the gamble of hey we let her live so she must be not going after anyone other than Abby ! and yeah is am pregnant btw so think about that before killing me. and ellies way if interrogation?? like everything doesn't make **** sense.

    oh yeah, let's talk about how Dina was cut off half of the game and made the game playing as Ellie alone. even Jesse split was retarded, like dina just told you she will not go back without ellie ?? so leave her alone to go after Tommy ? why take the gamble ?

    lev and whoever her name was kinda great if it weren't for the laughable idea of lev going to bring his mom and killing her, in self-defense or not that arc was so **** stupid. oh yeah, let's go for the way the market the game.

    they did the cult dirty. the were **** great, but they didn't have any impact on the story in any way what so ever, like they marketed the game as Joel and Ellie adventure for revenge for the Jackson attack from that cult, but hey that what was they showed us for seven years and made us believe and they **** lied to us in the face in the trailers, i didn't know jack **** about the spoilers other than it was really **** bad, but i still had faith that it will be worth it. and avoided it for months.

    Ellie going after revenge after seeing her having PTSD and Dina being done about it is cheap and **** stupid.

    breaking the cycle bs doesn't make sense since she could leave them for dead.

    and all i know that ellie didn't see what Abby is about other than she is the one who killed Joel.

    the whole thing was a big **** you from Neil for the fans, like saying this game was unique and had a really deep story is just, opinion, i care about the game that is why i am happy to see people enjoyed the game but for me the ending was...

    like i felt nothing, i didn't cry, get angry, or even felt anything, just a feeling in my tongue, as if Neil made me clean his ass after taking a ****.

    on a final note, ASHLEY CAN **** SING HOPED THERE WAS MORE OF HER SINGING!

    that take me on was so wholesome man, and that song that Joel wrote god man the feels are real, the birthday flash back was what i wanted Neil, just give me 12 hours of ellie and Joel breaking apart from each other and her asking and seeing her going from our little ellie to this ellie, no Abby **** no need for that message of "an eye for an eye" like do u really think making us feel for Abby and then just saying "yay ellie **** lost everything wonderful deep story Neil good job"

    like what is this broke the cycle crap man ? like what the **** dose it mean ? we live in a world of death and darkness, no one cares other than there own group, Abby being the daughter of the doctor is so **** cliche, like make her vague in a good way show us the dark 20 years of Joel and what he did while talking to Tommy or " Joel had a gf said in an interview" to his gf, like show us what Joel did was really ****ed up in a good way.

    all i can say amazing at everything, the only thing was wrong was Neil druckmann "message".    … Expand

    The main characters were JOEL and ELLIE. The way in which Joel was killed so fast and without mercy, I think the character deserved at least a better ending.

    The fact that they introduced a new main character and that you have to play with her more the 50% of the game is a little bit disgusting
    I understand that this game was dark and based in anger, even though that, I think that fans wanted a better story with the MAIN characters. All that gay stuff and in the case of Lev is irrelevant for me actually. I only wanted a better story and develpment for Joel an Ellie.    … Expand

    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.
