    In my opinion the story is not that bad but there some scenes which don't need to be in. The second half of the game is a bit boring because nothing really important happend there

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game I've been waiting for the most is just ruined. The plot is complete nonsense. Devote so much time to the gameplay, a character that you make hate from the very beginning of the game. I was not moved by her story. I just wanted to kill the whole game. And you didn't let me do that either. Expand

    Disappointing in almost every way. Same old boring Naughty Dog gameplay... and where the first game was propped up by an amazing story, this game’s story is absolute rubbish. In a series built on narrative excellence, this is an unforgivable sin.

    Argumento ridículo para un juego ambientado en un mundo post apocalíptico... Nada tiene que ver con la historia original tienen la reivindicación femenina y el lesbianismo.
    Parece que lo políticamente correcto es lo único que cuenta en este momento, y eso no nos gusta a los fanáticos.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Naughty Dog assembled a masterpiece with this story. For those who say that this is garbage and full of plot holes, i'm sorry you’re just not mature enough to play this game. It pictures realism, and how almost nothing goes according to planned as we see in the majority of movies. The game leaves you with a bitter taste in your mouth and at the same time a glimpse of hope, as Ellie walks away without two fingers in a road to try and redeem herself. I really hope other game companies inspire themselves and look forward to creating more games such as this, it’s not every game that leaves you thinking for days after you’ve finished it. 10/10 Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Один из самых сильных сюжетов которые я видел за всю свою жизнь. Тема ненависти (жажды мести) и последующего "прощения" раскрыта просто потрясающе. Игра вызывает сильное эмоциональное опустошение и чувство несправедливости, из-за этого многие игроки (даже те кто не играл, лол) считают что игра плохо справляется со своей работой, только вот, главная цель игры как раз и заключается в этих вещах. Особенно разочаровало меня то, что многие люди не поняли концовку, называют ее ужасной, хотя те кто хоть немного думал над историей, поймут ее, и восхитятся какую работу проделали сценаристы. Для полного анализа потребуется как минимум отличный эссеист, а на этом сайте слишком много ограничений для действительно объективного обзора, уверен что скоро мы увидим что-то подобное, а я пока пойду рефлексировать после концовки.

I am so disappointed that this is what ND decided was a good route to take a beloved story. The graphics are gorgeous, gameplay is so-so (if it ain't broke don't fix it), but the writing is so out of touch with not only its own franchise but its fanbase. ND is a studio that's specialized in stories, so I'm weighing story the heaviest, but the plotlines for TLOU2 feel comparable to S8 of GoT. I was so excited for a badass female lead but was left with dissatisfied and heartbroken that they'd trash their own characters they spent years building up for a new barely fleshed out villain. If you want some basic shooting and crafting this is the game for you, but if you're expecting a well thought out and sincere story then it'd be best to skip this one. The character dialogue while exploring sounds is incredibly bland, hearing Ellie and Dina talk sounds like the sort of basic messages you send on Tinder. Characters are introduced then randomly killed off and never mentioned again, the writers introduce you to this psychopathic villain and then force you to empathize with them afterwards. The cult that's highlighted in the trailers just exists, it's never explored. It pulls the pregnancy card WAY too many times and kills people for shock value, which is a sign the writer really has no idea how to write a compelling plotline without nixing your favorite character. This whole game feels like I read a Tumblr fanfic, fells asleep, and woke up 20 hours later. Companies will keep producing crap so long as we keep paying for it, and they'll keep trying to charge more and more. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolutely amazing. I don't think it's any problem at all the fact that Joel died. It moves the plot forward, creates new conflict, etc. Not everyone's has a happy ending, plus the LGBT+ representation makes for a game with lot of diversity. Thank you for making this, I appreciate it. And I hope the rest of the people do too. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Геймплей не сильно изменился с времен прорывной первой части. Добавились прикольные фишки с залезанием под машину или в брешь в стене, чтобы спрятаться или занять более выгодное место при перестрелке.

    Сюжет очень хорош до момента, когда нужно проиграть весь сюжет за Эбби. Это ещё 10 часов игры за персонажа, который неприятен в связи с определённым поступком. Да, за эти 10 часов она уже не кажется такой ужасной, но по началу Эбби вызывает только отвращение. Концовка просто замечательная, хотя много кто говорит, что она слитая. Такое чувство, что в разные игры играли.Атмосфера выдающаяся. Думаю, тут никто спорить не будет.

    Я играл на фэт версии плойки и графика меня более чем устроила. На пк с железом 2013 года игра с такой графикой бы никогда даже не запустилась.

    Музыкальное сопровождение бесподобно, как и в первой части.

    Удобное управление. Если вы слишком криворукий для геймпада, то купите эмуль, но это никогда не сравнится с обычным дуалшоком.

    Дубляж неплохой, но, как заметил Алексей Шевцов, в озвучке нет мата. И из-за этого портится один момент связанный с Эбби и Львом. А также актёр, озвучивающий Джоэла поёт по-английски с диким акцентом.

    Физика и анимации тоже хороши, за исключением нескольких незначительных моментов моментов, никакой топорной анимации нет.

    Багов очень мало, оптимизация великолепная.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Over the 20 hours of gameplay and exploration, including the tense moments of encounters with new infected creatures and new cults/groups was amazing. The music in tense, sad or happy which made certain situations brilliant, music sometimes can break a game, but the style of music was just right. The story, it’s clear that it is very difficult to creat a new character/characters and try to create empathy for them like the community care for Joel and Ellie. However, once seeing Abby’s POV and seeing who she was and what she has been through and lost in the past, also showing why she killed Joel does create empathy for her. Now in the 5-8 hours of seeing abby’s life and showing the journey of the days 1-4 also including the past sometimes, it’s worked what the game developers wanted to happen, at the end I didn’t really want to kill Abby, due to seeing her perspective and seeing who she was. Now with Ellie the flashbacks where Joel is there really is very effective and sad and the way his face pops up every now then shows the fact that Ellie now misses him and wishes she could have spent more time with him. The end flash back including the bar flash back really made me get emotional, tears, because to find out that they only just wanted to work everything out, but it’s sadly the day before Joel dies, it just hurt. This game has done really well to show emotion for characters and also I think it has a moral of the story, sort of like how this one thing made Ellie lose more then what she went in with, she lose Dina and JJ (we think), Tommy and his wife broke up, Jessie dies, Ellie loses two fingers so can no longer play certain keys on the guitar, and sadly most of all she chose to lose time with Joel by not forgiving him and realising cons of what he did but not the pros. Not all endings are happy, but this ending was furthing the point of what I said more or less (which is good and emotional). Overall a hugely emotional game, I am defo gonna play this game again just not now as I have to take it all in. I hope that a part 3 does come out in the years to come as I would love to see where Ellie goes and what people think of her at the city. I hope you all enjoy the game, also when playing it you real should read the notes found and listen to the dialogue and take it all in! Thank you for another great game Naughty Dog hope u bring a part 3. her eyes Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Buenas tardes! Antes que nada es una lastima que haya personas asi, cuando quiero comprar un juego siempre miro la opinion de los jugadores, esto por que creo que es mas veridica (hay muchos rumores de que ciertas companias sobornan a los criticos) pero veo que no es asi. El review boombing que esta recibiendo este juego es horrible. Personas que a las 3 horas de que haya salido el juego ya estaban calificando esto con notas como 0, 1 o 2 sin haber ni siquiera terminarlo. Para todas esas personas les dedico un buen dedo del medio y les deseo que se vallan a la m****a.
    Ahora con el juego:
    La historia de the last of us, aunque no es perfecta, sigue siendo maravillosa. Los personajes tienen un arco que supera a muchas series de televicion. Ellie recorre un camino en busca de venganza por la muerte de joel. Pero no voy a contar mas que eso. La banda sonora sigue siendo increible, con una mezcla de los clasicos con canciones nuevas, todas con una guitarra o un banjo. En resumen suena increible.
    Los graficos creo que son otra de las maravillas que nos ofrece este juego, por suerte uso auriculares pero aun asi podia escuchar el ventilador de mi ps4 a punto de estallar.la jugabilidad es el punto bajo de este juego, si bien no es mala ( aunque a decir.verdad es bastante buena) no propone casi nada nuevo mas que las mecanicas de sigilo.
    El diseño de niveles es bastante parecido al primer juego durante la mayor parte: llegas a una zona elevada-ves el lugar donde tienes que ir-bajas y matas a todos los de la zona hasta que pasas a un lugar inospito-cinematica. Y asi la mayor parte del juego.
    En resumen The last of us es un juego hermoso, triste, pero hermoso. Es un juego que no se merece este nivel de review boombing, que tiene mucho para ofrecer y que invito a todos a probarlo.

    Okay, yeah, something happens in first 2 hours of the game. But there are still good gameplay, best graphics and masterpiece story. Game is showing Joel’s and Ellie’s story from other side and it was unexpected from Naughty Dog. They knew that fans of the original game will hate sequel, but there was a small chance that people will try to understand the new story.

    Reasons why people are hating this game.
    1.They think that everyone must be immortal.
    2. Playing as Abby - Abby is very good written character but people are hating her because she *khm* (Although, she had a very good motivation)
    3.IT’S A FREAKING TREND TO HATE TLOU2 - I don't know why but that’s true. Some people are rating 0 on metacritic only because of leaks, they didn’t even played it.

    What we love most about first part? Joel’s and Ellie’s relationship. It would be awesome to see that in second part, but we didn’t wait 7 years for that. We were waiting for a game with best graphics, gameplay, story and we did get that! Plus we got a small, fantastic episode of good old Joel and Ellie.
    Why can’t you just put aside emotional luggage from the first part and just play?
    This game doesn’t deserve fu**in deserve 4.4...Naughty dog doesn’t deserve this hate...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I’ve had time to think about #TheLastofUsPartIl and I had seen a few spoilers before jumping into it and while it saddens me to have seen them I wasn’t gonna let it bother me From a visual standpoint this game was nothing story of one of the best games I’ve ever seen, The music might be only 2nd to Red Dead Redemption 2. The music was absolutely incredible and really knew how to hit the mood. From a character standpoint Joel and Ellie were.. well, Joel and Ellie. Dina was a very well put together character and it was a trip watching,
    Tommy go more and more mad as the story went on. Especially near the end, Jesse was a great new character was well to see. There are too many other characters to talk about in a review so I’ll just say. Some of them were hits and some were misses #TheLastofUsPart2 

    Now Onto the story itself... Is the story better then the first game... no... But that’s OK, because overall the story was while flawed at some points. A very enjoyable story for me. I think playing as Abby went a little too long but that’s OK.

    Seeing Ellie develop as a character throughout the second game as well as in the ending, realizing that no matter what she did wouldn’t change what happened or make her a better person showed true character development for her.

    My final thoughts. I really want to give this game a 10/10 But as of this moment I just can’t, maybe after a second Playthru and sitting down on it I can. But the graphics, sound and character were all great and the story was while flawed a good experience Overall. 9.5/10. Since 9.5 is closer to 10 than it is to 9. I’ll give it a 10

    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.
