    Awesome game, I'm thoroughly enjoying it and it follows on beautifully from the last game. I'd recommend playing on hard mode or above, as it really lets the survival elements shine.

The level of detail in environmemts and facial expressions is outstanding as well. Now to platinum the game!… Expand

    The graphics are amazing, the controls are smooth, it’s incredibly cinematic, and it fills the player with intense emotion as they play as Ellie seeking vengeance. What more could you ask for from an amazing first game and a 7 year wait! Overall the game is enjoyable in both its play style and story.

    Epic game! I love Ellie. The cyclical nature of the narrative is very compelling and reaches the same heights as the graphics. Must play.

    How does an amazing game get so many 0s? The game takes about 30 hours to beat, yet most people clearly haven't beaten the game. Even if you dislike the story, the art, the music, etc is still amazing. Unless you're very homophobic, this is a great sequel.

    I've read some of the negative 'reviews' here and it doesn't really make sense to me. I have the feeling that alot of these come from conservative Americans who see conspiracies everywhere (suddenly there is a hidden political agenda in this game?). Read a book, travel, become open minded and play the game again, maybe you'll love it then, just like I did.

    Incredibly beautiful, haunting, harrowing. A spectacular experience that does justice to TLOU Part 1. This game is varied, brutal, and gut-wrenching. A masterpiece. GOTY.

    A truly excellent game.

    WARNING SPOILERS TO FOLLOW!!!

    One of my favorite things about this game how it shows the story, instead of telling it.

    The Internet would have you believe that Joel getting ambushed by Abby is completely out of character. And they're right... for old Joel.

    But new Joel has lost his edge. He's not the same creature of pure survival as he was in the first game.

    The very first scene of "The Last Of Us Part II" highlights this change.

    Joel's not carrying a gun. Instead, he wears a guitar on his back, at the exact same place and angle where his rifle hung throughout ALL of the first game.

    It's such an excellent visual way to convey that he's softened... and it shows the consequences of doing so, given the life he's lived.

    The entire game is FULL of excellent visual symbolism such as this.

    Don't let the haters put you off -- this is 100% the sequel the first game deserved!

    My criticisms is the combat is a bit of slog later on in the game, and there "dog scene" was handled pretty poorly. But there's so much else good about this game, it's hard to believe it's really a "0 / 10 franchise killer" like so many of these review bombs would have you believe...    … Expand

Parece que vc está numa manifestação de antifas. Um porre, minha nota pra história é 2/10 e gameplay 8/10 pq não teve inovação, apenas um pequeno upgrade que já existia em outros jogos.… Expand

    A true masterpiece.
    Visuals & sound design are the best thing I’ve ever seen / heard in a game or even maybe a film. The story is fantastic, the writing is well done & it conveys a point, the moral dilemmas of the characters & the fact that they’re just human & they have issues & unavoidable things they must face & seeing the light sometimes too late.

    I frankly loved every minute of my 23 hour play though, and I will wait patiently for naughty dog’s next game. In the meantime I shall replay this a few times & get the platinum. I can understand why someone would not like the story & there’s nothing wrong with that, maybe they could reflect on what the story and writing is saying instead of wishing for something else or just complaining. Remember just because someone likes tuna, and someone else doesn’t, does not make either of them wrong. Overall a master class in story telling & game design, inspiring.    … 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]
