    - Superb sound
    - Suberb OST
    - Mediocre - game mechanics (but I am fine with that)

    A story that is not worth mentioning!
    I am no hater, neither I like to discredit their hard work but what in the hell did they do?
    Its not about gender, not about Joel but about HOW they implemented this whole **** story into this game.
    How in the hell could that happen?
    Where are the internal critics that overviewed the story?
    WHY DID SONY do nothing?

    Its a shame this game mutilated itself.

    Anyone who gives this game a 0 is NOT legit. Even if you hated the story, or the characters, or the gameplay, there is no way this game deserves a 0, or is "the worst game ever".
    I also see a lot of homophobes/transphobes out there hating on this game for having lesbian/trans characters. Let me just tell you that even if you do not like such themes, they are barely in there at all, it's

    That said, I personally really loved this game! I did not read any reviews or the leaks or anything, so I went into it blind as can be, and it was shocking and brutal and I loved every second of it!
    This game really made me think about who all these people are and what their reasons and motives are. If you want a game to blindly shoot and kill stuff, just play something else! There's a lot of story here and things that can be quite hard to stomach. It's definitely not an easy game to just play and have a good time with. It's a game that will haunt you forever, in the best ways.
    Much love to the developers, you did an AMAZING job, all my expectations were exceeded!

    Really disappointing! I agree that games need more diversity in them. But TLOU 2 just slaps you in the face with it, the story itself is just really bad and makes no sense.

    Best thing about it's predecessor was when you finished the game and the credits rolled you knew you would be playing it again in the future. I don't feel I will be playing this game again.

    I expected more from Naughty Dig.

Die Spielzeit mit rund 25 Stunden ist viel zu lang vor allem da der Part sich mit Abby sich wie eine unnötige Nebenquest anfühlt die mit der Hauptstory nichts zu tun hat. Für mich fühlt sich jeder Nebencharakter belanglos an sei es Diana oder Jesse sprich ich habe keine Bindung zu irgend jemanden aufbauen können wie es im ersten Teil war. In dieser Story sucht man vergeblich nach Emotionen aber dafür findet man reichlich Gewalt und man sucht auch vergeblich nach Licht da das Spiel gefangen ist in der Dunkelheit . Als Fan des ersten Teils ist das hier eine pure Enttäuschung. Expand

    Part ll it’s such a great game, but it’s not the master piece that they said at first.
    The gameplay, animations, characters and other things are just fantastic, and this is enough to have more than a 4.5 rate. It is really sad to se all that negative rates just becaise people did’nt like the way the game ends and the destiny of some characters.
    If you have’nt play it , i just wanna say

    Игра отличная, возможно даже тянет на игру года. Конечно в плане сюжета хуже первой, типичный сюжет про месть и слегка затянут. ЛГБТ пропаганда есть, но она настолько мизерная, что этого почти не заметно. Моя оценка 8.2/10

    The graphic atmosphere is great but the processing of the story is also disappointing. Play if you have not been waiting for seven years, otherwise frustration is inevitable.

    So much salt on here! I can agree with some of the points people are making, but honestly, its not that bad. I enjoyed it, and you should judge for yourself. Typical revenge story, but I like how they make you feel for each side.

Neil Druckmann fails to eliminate his prejudices and beliefs from a project that has nothing to do with them. If the negative reviews from the users are once again silenced, this will repeat over and over again. There needs to be a risk in creating a sequel to a successful game, and this is the only way us users can ensure that. No matter how you look at it, The Last of Us name was used for a different purpose, perhaps to further a movement or to ensure progressiveness in video game titles, but no matter what, that approach to the sequel took away from the passion of the directors for the video game itself, and more for its possible effect on society. Perhaps if they truly wanted to help as many people as possible, they would have delivered a high quality game in a time of need for everyone. This game is not only a disappointment, but an injustice that should somehow be corrected. To anyone that is reading this and thinks that the game does not deserve such a bad review score (and it really doesn't - it's a pretty good game) all I have to say is that this is just the only punishment that we the users can dish out. If we were to stay silenced, this would always repeat. And perhaps the amazing team that worked on this game's visuals, animations, soundtrack, and programming might be better off in another company, as their skill has truly not went unnoticed. If we somehow impact Naughty Dog studios with this bombing, those talented people will go to teams where their talent will enhance the strong base provided by a well-written story and message, instead of being the only good thing about an otherwise sub-par game.

    This game is a masterpiece. The representation is amazing. Shame on the crybabies who are mad because they didn't get a generic game like every others. This will revolutionize the gaming world. Thank you naughty dog, I never felt, cried and empathized so much during a game.

    I thought this was a great game. I enjoyed the story, wasn’t super thrilled with ending though. I think the writers should have allowed you to have a choice instead of making it for you. The game was a big step up from the first game. The message that the delivers game by the end is abundantly clear. Overall a great game, not better than the first story wise but superior gameplay wise.

    This perfect 10 isn't to offset the numerous 0's that were review bombed. Its a 10 because its as close to perfect as a game can get. It might not be a story for everyone, but to say its anything less than a masterpiece is just silly. This game moved me in ways no game has before, and that includes the original. As soon as I was done, i restated. Amazing.

At the expense of the game itself, I liked it, there are shortcomings of the type: the death of the main character at the beginning of the game and the subsequent death of the heroes, not fully disclosed. I understand people who put underestimated grades, since they did not expect this particular game. But Naughty Dog play very well with the emotions of the player, which I undoubtedly like.

    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]
