    Jedna z lepszych gier jakie grałem, a grałem w duża ilość gier. Rzeczywiście zakończenie może budzić emocje ale to jest wizja twórców.
    Do mnie przemówiło zakończenie jak i cała gra. Deweloperzy naprawde się postarali ta gra to poezja.

Considero que es un juego sólido, con un gameplay perfecto que mejora muchísimo el anterior, si bien no es mejor, si la considero una digna secuela, que trata de enmarcar la venganza y las consecuencias, si bien su historia segun muchos es mala, lo veo como un muy buen cierre, ahora voy a platinarlo.

    Pd: La muerte de Joel es lo mas cruel que vi jamas, muy realista e impactante

    Minor improvements in terms of gameplay from the first part , no multiplayer as of now , story is the weakest part . The middle part of the game feels a bit boring and you are forced to play as characters you have hardly any emotional attachment to . Overall ok but wont miss much if you feel like skipping it at least until its on ps5 with multiplayer .

Even though this game gets a lot if hate for its storytelling the story is great as well as the gameplay What people don’t understand about the ending is that Ellie had nothing to gain from killing Abby and everything to lose. Her obsession of getting revenge consumed her emotions and she lost everything she had up to that point. The death of Joel causes her to lose her humanity, Lose Jesse, Lose Dina, Lose Her relationship with Tommy, Hell she even lost her fingers and can’t play the guitar anymore. Her vengeance would be pointless because it would solve anything. So it’s a great story and and hopefully people will understand this story in a couple years Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is incredible because it did not tell the story that I wanted, instead it told the story that it had to. They really did a good a good job making a point that actions have consequences, as a result of the actions of Joel in the first game (killing that doctor who he didnt know, in a pure rampage of hate and selfishness) Abby kills Joel in the same way he killed her father. Even further that quest for Ellie in search for revenge ends up killing her friend Jesse, crippling Tommy and ultimately losing Dina and Potato in a last attempt of revenge. Even further she loses her fingers by Abby, rendering her useless when she has to play guitar, the thing she remembers Joel most.
    Abby´s quest after killing Joel is simmilar to his victim, after doing incredible harm to the victim´s family, she feels guilty and tries to regain her humanity through the innocence of a child called Lev, sound familiar? This kid stopped her bloodlust from killing Ellie and Dina, giving her a chance to live her life once again, but its hate that ultimately makes Ellie´s worst fear come true, she ends up alone.
    What I did not like was how they treated Joel´s death, it could´ve been better if he had put up some kind of fight, killing some wolves before he gets shot. Also the order of the flashbacks felt a little weird, which takes some point for me, the game is not perfect but it sure as hell is incredible.
    Graphics are out of this world, the fact that I felt disgusted by every infected, by every wolf that Ellie killed with her dagger is awesome.
    Gameplay is significantly improved with stealth, going prone and making distractions never failed to make me smart, also the jumpscares and tension this god dam game made question if I could continue playing.
    Overall the game is incredible, but not perfect, a solid 9 out of 10.

Not an enjoyable experience, especially if you played and liked TLOU1. The graphics are good and the environment is amazing, but the story is so bad there is not a single moment of feeling great. The devs were blinded by trying to create something people would talk about that they forgot a game is not the same thing as a movie. I suppose they wanted to try and make a work of art and used a lot of controversial topics, but they missed the point and created a frustrating, bad story. Graphics and technical features are very important in a game, but what makes a great game is an amazing story and great characters. I think Neil Druckman created a very good first game, but he definitely fell short in the second part, mostly because he wanted to create something controversial, and he ended up adding a lot of irrelevant details to a very bad and horrible story. I don't even know why the critics gave this game such great ratings. Not good, I wished I had not preordered it. All the characters are bad and empty. The only cool character is Ellie but you only play as her only 50% of the time. Big thumbs down for me. The end is also a big disappointment. No no no. I gave it a 1 because of the graphics and environment design which are very good, but aside from that I wished I had not wasted so many hours playing this. Expand

    This game is amazing. The story is smart and beautiful. I think a lot of folks hating on the story didn't give it a chance and/or didn't stop to think what the developer was trying to accomplish. If the game had been a straight up linear tale of revenge, it wouldn't have been interesting. The artistic approach the developers used took me on a roller-coaster of emotions. I think the developers were very conscious of how the player would feel at various stages in the game and used that to heighten the story.

    It may or may not go without saying but the visuals, combat, controls, and interface are all outstanding. On these merits alone the game deserves a play through. I give huge props to their art/design/animation teams. They put some serious love and care into the designs, and it shows. The voice acting, as expected, was also exceptional.

    I do think there is some time towards the middle of the game where the story stalls out a bit, but with some patience things picked right back up shortly after.

    I don't want to throw out words like "masterpiece" or "perfect", but I will say this game was EXCELLENT. The ending will sit with me for a while and this series has a spot in my hall of fame.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. WARNING: THIS IS A VERY VERY VERY SPOILER FILLED REVIEW

    People who hate on this game and refuse to play it because of what happens at the beginning have never actually watched and/or read Game of Thrones and it shows.

    This story is in no way shape or form, a happy story. Everyone has become so accustomed to happy endings or things going exactly the way they want it to. This is story is tragic, depressing, violent and brutal, sickening and it. Is. Brilliant. From watching Ellie slowly slip into madness as she runs through Seattle on her Quest to find and kill everyone involved with Joel being murdered. The scene where Ellie is at the hospital beating the **** out of Nora for information on Abby. Ellie killing Owen and Mel and then realizing that Mel is (or was, at that point) pregnant. Her fight with Abby in the theater begging Abby not to kill Dina because she is pregnant as well. ALL of that is a story of what revenge REALLY does to you.

    With Abby's story, I was **** pissed at the beginning. I was screaming at the top of my lungs and then later on I am forced to **** play as the character that I hate? No no no no no. **** that. But I kept playing and you start to slowly understand everything about why she did what she did. The story humanized her and I hated that when the ending came, I was pissed that I loved it.

    Neil Druckman and everyone at Naughty Dog are sick in the head. They make you care about a character that you are supposed to hate down to her core. Or at least care for her to SOME degree. (I'd be lying if I said I didn't die on purpose MULTIPLE times during the Abby and Ellie fight in the theater just because I wanted to see Abby die.) But at the very end... I didn't want that. I did not want to see Ellie slip into a place of no return. If she actually went through with it, darkness would have consumed her and then Last of Us Part 3 would have just been about Lev getting revenge on Ellie or some **** So I believe the ending was perfect.

    This game does not deserve the flack it is getting. It's is a tragic and depressing story and everyone needs to stop wining about it. 10 out of 10. Hands down.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I very much enjoyed this game. I liked the combat and I felt that the characters were realistic. I have gripes with Abby and how they presented her, but I appreciate her role in the overall themes of the game. It's heart-achingly real in how it portrays trauma and Ellie experiencing intense guilt. I found her and her relationship with Dina an accurate portrayal of an LGBT+ relationship. I understood their motivations. Their love despite the pain around them inspire me and I feel that it's realistic.
    However, a lot of people are upset about the lack of Joel. While I enjoyed Ellie and Joel's banter, it makes so much sense for Ellie's personal growth to have him die. I don't think the way it was done was great, it certainly could have been rewritten or redone, but I think that it needed to happen.
    The experience was overall pleasant and I hope that others can have as much fun with it as I have had. Please look past the hate and see what a visual masterpiece it is. Appreciate the overall themes and character building, if nothing else.
    To Summarize:
    10/10 Graphics
    9/10 Characters

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My two biggest issues with the game are actually not what most people are posting.

    Firstly, the story is too stretched out and insanely boring at sometimes. Turning into a walking simulator for hours upon end.
    And secondly, you are forced to play as one of the most hated characters I think I've ever seen in any game ever released.

    The ending, in my personal opinion, wasn't really that bad. By the time you reach the fight with Abby, the game has drained you as a player so much, and the characters have gone through so much, that NOT killing Abby feels more conclusive than actually killing her.
    And at the very end, when you can't play the guitar and you walk away, it feels like a sad ending done pretty well.

    But throughout the entirety of the middle of the game, the general gameplay and story is just so boring, stretched out, filled with loopholes and absolutely stupid character decisions that I had a hard time finishing the game. I often stopped for breaks just to chat to family or friends because the game was so morally and emotionally and mentally draining.

    Overall, there really isn't much to love or talk about in this game. It's just a sad story that pushed the sadness to the forefront and left no room for good writing.

    Insanely good graphics though. Gameplay was somewhat flat but pretty decent. Accessibility options were a huge plus. There are so many options to help out any type of gamer.

    4/10 for me.

    If Ellie was gonna lose everything anyways why not give us the revenge that we wanted? honestly what a punch in the gut to fans to not even give us the satisfaction of vengeance. I think ND was gonna tell their story whether others liked it or not. Letting Abby go was honestly such a big F you I just sat there on my chair pissed that i spent about 30 hrs into this game and didn't even get the satisfaction of killing abby or the very least killing Lev aint that some BS. F you ND & Neil Druckman.

The fact that there were so many plot wholes and so much incoherence on the development of the story is infuriating. I cloud not mind the fact that Joels dies, I honestly could, but to TURN HIM INTO A VILLAIN that's where you lose me. To degrade him and his essence the way they do is just disgusting. I am not saying that I am mad about him dying, but THE WAY that is what makes me mad. Then they put these flashbacks that just made me sad and angry because I KNOW I won't see him again. Then, the fact that Ellie literally looses her essence and that they try to make us see her as the enemy? like Abby is a good person?!?! like what the hell!!!??? And the next thing I am saying is WHY I HATED THE WHOLE GAME. They made us play like 12 hours of Ellie, we see her do things that are wrong, she tortures, she kills, she gets herself in this revenge mode that blinds her of her principles and moral. THEN WE HAAVE TO PLAY 10 HOURS AS ABBY, an awful human being that just killed Joel, that doesn't regret anything she does. And we are supposed to feel empathy for her? like she is a good person? she thinks that because life hit her hard, she has an immunity card that gives her the right to act the way she does. She doesn't regret killing or torturing or simply putting people at risk. And this is the part where Ellie is different. We see REGRET and SADNESS and ANGER towards everything she does, she KNOWS its wrong. And that is because of Joel, all the things that he taught her, because she becomes the human being he wanted her to be, a good human in the messed up world the live in. Thats why we see remorse in her actions. We see that she feels sick because of what she does. And all those moments when she acts like a "crazy person" are because of the emotional state she is in, she is in greave, she is blinded because of all those emotions, and most of the things that she does are in self defense!. Also, She defends her friends and would never turn her back on them. Abby doesn't care, she is a selfish, badly developed character. Joel and Ellie deserved more and that is just a FACT. I feel so bad for giving this score and this review, but this game is so bad that I just have to. Expand

    Naughty dog straight up lied about their game. They replaced character models in trailers to make us think certain characters would be a bigger part of the story than they really were. They then tried to make a story about how bad guys aren't always bad, but the character in question was **** and they forced them onto us. Don't buy this **** game.

    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.
