    Incredible game. Doesn't play it safe and in turn rewards you with a mature story, expertly written. 10/10 across all categories

    En un apocalipsis, donde hay constante peligro y escasez de recursos, hay muchas prioridades antes de tener una relación sexual.
    El problema no es la preferencia sexual, es el hecho que haya escenas eróticas sin venir a cuento y que se use a una minoría para ganar la aprobación fácil de descerebrados.
    Un argumento sobre su sexualidad muy forzado que te saca de la historia y del juego constantemente y que no te haga disfrutar plenamente de las mecánicas e historia (básicamente la historia es que la prota se enamora de la tía que mató a su "padrastro", y se ponen a meterse mano y fumar porros en un apocalipsis zombie. tiran por el suelo la historia de la primera parte como que matan al protagonista de la primera y no le dan importancia al hecho de que ella sea inmune).
    Sobre los gráficos, la entrega anterior fue impresionante en comparación a los demás títulos, en cambio en esta segunda entrega no me parecen tan impactantes (solo en las cinemáticas se esforzaron) pero igualmente el diseño gráfico de los zombies son pésimos en esta segunda entrega).
    la IA de los zombies es similar a la de juegos como minecraft (puedes hacer que te sigan varios y dar vueltas al rededor de una columna o subirte a un andamio de metro y medio y ya no te alcanzan, realmente no hay ningún peligro) pero podrías decir que son zombien y no razonan, pero igualmente los enemigos vivos tienen una IA del año 2000 (le puedes clavar una flecha, te escondes unos segundos y se olvida te ti y se va con la flecha clavada. puede también verte claramente y si te escondes antes de unos segundos, se olvida de ti enseguida. y esconderse significa ponerse de cuclillas detrás de un arbusto de medio metro y ya)
    .
    pero diría que lo peor es la cara dura del guionista y/o del director que engañaron con los trailers.
    .
    pd: mucho éxito en ventas pero ebay (y todas las páginas de 2º mano) está saturada y lo puedes pillar fácil por menos de 20€ con una semana de uso (llegué a ver una subasta a menos de un día de cerrar, de uno en edición coleccionista a 17€) y cada día que pasa está más barato.    … Expand

    Мнение о The Last Of Us 2
    Одна из лучших игр современности, как по геймплею и сюжету (повествованию). Не понимаю хейт этой игры, из-за sjw? Там повестки 10 минут за всю игру, и то она никак не мешает сюжету. Не понравился сюжет и финал? А кто тебе сказал что игра тебе должна приносить радость?

Эту игру можно не любить, я могу понять, что вам она не понравилась, но поливать ее говном это бред.

    Primero quiero decir que es muy triste que muchas personas den malas calificaciones sin siquiera jugar o criticar sobre el progresismo del juego, que está muy bien implementado ya que a diferencia de las últimas películas de Disney, donde te arrojan toda su agenda política a la cara, este juego que enseña con el ejemplo sin darle más importancia.
    Este juego es increíble, la historia no es mala, el único problema son algunas malas decisiones, que personalmente me encantaba jugar en este momento, pero al final hacen más daño que bien.

    First I want to say that it is very sad that many people give bad ratings without even playing or criticizing about the progressivism of the game, which is very well implemented since, unlike the latest Disney movies, where they throw their entire political agenda in your face , this game that teaches by example without giving it more importance.
    This game is amazing, the story is not bad, the only problem is some bad decisions, which I personally loved to play right now, but in the end they do more harm than good.    … Expand

В игре отличная графика(хотя ничего прогрессивного нет), приятный геймплей, в частности боевая система, однако это же не call of duty или battlefield, это сюжетная игра, а в TLoU2 сюжет просто слили(как и любимых персонажей первой части) .

Compared to the character she was this change of character is very contrived, and frankly, unbelievable. They turned her into a one dimensional killing machine for the sake of fulfilling their story objectives, with no regard for the audience or the previous character that Ellie was. They could have made this story work but they failed, miserably. I am completely aw struck at the positive reviews this game is getting. People are ignoring very serous issues with this game. What is really sad is that the user score for this game is way over inflated because M e t a Crit. deleted thousands of negative reviews.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. When I saw the user score at first I thought it was review bombing. I played the game, the graphics and animations are the best I’ve ever seen in a video game. The story is the worst, it is like they dumbed down the characters we love from the first one. The plot armors are countless to keep some characters alive and kill some characters off pointlessly to steer the story the way they want to term the story as unpredictable or bold. You can see where the story is going and why Joel was killed right from the start because he was talking about that incident at the start of the game with Tommy. The story was not interesting. Not to mention it is false advertising by showing Joel and replaced him with Jesse in the game. Ellie killed hundreds of people to get to Abby then unable to kill her because revenge is bad? Well, she killed tons already, why not kill her too that’s the one responsible. This game sucks.… Expand

    A BIG LET DOWN.
    This game is the perfect example of why politics shouldn't be included in video games, at least not in this awful way, game director opted for shock value instead of a good, compelling story, plot holes are laughable, characters are unsympathetic, plot is idiotic at best, there is zero to none character development often character act NOTHING like their previous version,    A BIG LET DOWN.

    ON TOP of everything previously mentioned, FACTIONS (online MP) was excluded of this game, for whatever stupid reason, to include more pointless characters or identity politics.
    Do yourself a favor and skip this sorry mess.
    Wait for it to be free on PS+ or pick it up from a bargain bin a couple of weeks from today.

    *pokes head out* Is it safe yet? Has the hype and review-bombing cooled off? *looks around* No? Ah well, let’s just try to ignore it for the sake of giving my own review. “The Last of Us” was one of 2013’s most well-received video games, and it’s a title that has been hailed as one of the greatest video games ever created. It took me several years to get around to the game and play it*pokes head out* Is it safe yet? Has the hype and review-bombing cooled off? *looks around* No? Ah well, let’s just try to ignore it for the sake of giving my own review. “The Last of Us” was one of 2013’s most well-received video games, and it’s a title that has been hailed as one of the greatest video games ever created. It took me several years to get around to the game and play it myself, and when I did, I was legitimately worried that the hype would oversell the final product, but thankfully, it didn’t, and the original game remains fantastic for me. It’s one of my personal favorite games, and while the prospect of a sequel was exciting to me even before I played the first game, my hype thrusters went into overdrive once I actually played and beat the game. The more I saw of the game, the more excited I got, and the more I was hoping that the sequel would blow me away like the first game did. And I must honestly say, this sequel did blow me away!
    “The Last of Us Part II” knocks it out of the park in all aspects for me: visually, this is by far one of the most impressive-looking games that I’ve seen thus far, with stunning animations and an all-around fantastic design that perfectly captures the bleakness that surrounds the game. Down to the littlest details, the visuals shine, and it’s truly a technical achievement. It’s very rare that I find a game that can invoke my fear of heights and give me anxiety, but kudos to the visual designers for being able to do that. From a gameplay perspective, I think the game is consistently tensing and heart-pounding, whether you’re moving stealthily or engaged in a one-on-one boss fight. Even in its slowest sections, it never fails to put you on the edge of your seat, and while this might seem like a weird descriptor of a game like this, the gameplay does feel…really fun. The writing, as controversial as it already has been, is honestly one of my favorite things about the game. I think the story is extremely layered, and even though it’s very dark and depressing, there’s a lot that I can appreciate as I continue to think about the game. Even after finishing it, I still feel like there are layers I’m continuing to unfold and new ideas popping up in my head, and I think that the game’s handling of a story that’s constantly at conflict with itself is really fascinating. The characterization is great, I love the old and new cast all the same, and I think the writing is lifted by some of the excellent performances from the game’s cast of actors. These actors give some mesmerizing performances, and it’s quite a wonder to behold. Top it off by a light but impactful score from composer Gustavo Santaolalla, and you’ve got a game that really can do it all.
    Usually, this is the part of the review where I talk about the negatives of a game, and honestly, in this case I can’t, because there really wasn’t anything that detracted from my enjoyment of “The Last of Us Part II.” What I will spend this time doing, though, is giving a bit of a warning: I know this game has been very controversial so far, and you can probably tell by the user score, but it’s received a lot of criticism, which doesn’t totally surprise me. This game was always going to be divisive, and given that the story centers so heavily around moral ambiguity, it’s going to be polarizing and constantly at odds with itself. Some elements of the story will leave you conflicted and, at times, probably really angry. That said, though, this is a game that’s very layered and it often begs for you to read into every little detail that you can. For better or worse, even the most controversial aspects of the story have purpose in it. My advice if you want to get the most out of the game: take nothing the game gives you at face value. There’s always something to unpack here, so if nothing else, don’t immediately write off the game because of some of its controversial elements.
    All in all, while “The Last of Us Part II” might not exactly be for everyone, I think this is yet another amazing adventure from Naughty Dog that lives up to the standard they have set for themselves. I personally thought it was just as good (if not, dare I say, better than) the first game, and even if you’re put off by some of what you’ve heard, I highly recommend you at least give the game a fair shot. It’s polarizing, but it’s worth it to see what side of the fence you sit on with it. For me? I thoroughly enjoyed this game, and it’s gonna stick with me for a long, long time.

    Absolutely loved it. Can't wait for part 3 one day.

    Seems another generation of games ends with a last of us. perfect send off for the ps4.

    It also seems like loads of people are hating on the game. If someone's review is 19th of June, then they obviously didn't play through the entire game or even close to it.I would like to state it does feel a bit weird at first to see Ellie so (understandably) angry and sad.. but the second half of the game tells a tale too.. one where you think about your actions in the first half with more weight. It's a very unique story and brave. I loved it.. but I think you need to be older than 18 to appreciate it.. which is probably where of these reviewers are going wrong.

    Furthermore, LGBTQ is represented in this game, however it feels natural and not slapped in your face repeatedly. No one should care that Ellie is gay (TLOU DLC showed this). If you do its surely your own fragile masculinity causing the issue here.

    Personally I think anyone with a discriminatory review should be banned and deleted.

    Either way, this game is a must play for the ps4.

    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.
