    One of the greatest games I have played in a long time. I went into it completely blind, no spoilers, only seeing the first ever trailer for Part 2.

    If you've been spoiled by now but haven't played the whole game, I truly recommend you play the game before leaving that bad review or hating on it. As the days go on I'm seeing more people complete the game and more positive reviews coming in. (Not saying you're in the wrong if you don't like the game. But don't be someone who leaves 0/10 before even finishing it)

    Anyways, highly recommended imo.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have to say it was a reality shock when I played the game, naughty dog ​​really made me realize that not everything is a fairy tale where there is a hero who does everything right and saves the world in the end, she really did a good job demonstrating how cruel the world can be, I always waited for a different ending with joel and ellie together, but that wasn’t it, that made the game more real, the real reason ellie didn’t kill abby wasn’t because of a moral lesson but because she realized that revenge only generates more revenge. the gameplay is almost the same as 1 but improved in everything

    Even though the game was incredible there were some bad points like: * artificial intelligence, honestly naughty dog ​​promised something revolutionary but ended up making the intelligence end up being a little laggy * the game makes my ps4 look like an airplane turbine, if you don't have a ps4 pro, know that the game suffers from some bugs like flashing textures and framerate drop * They focused a lot on humans, it really is not a big problem since the gameplay is good and brings incredible moments but the game forgot that they are in an apocalypse with a lot of infected * Items are not scarce, they promised more immersion in the game but it helps you at all times, when I played I always had a full inventory because I thought so many * The difficulty, both ellie and abby are super sodiers, they can take 50 shots and still stay alive, that takes away some of the realism even though the game had some errors it was a good game, maybe not the best of the year but one of the best    … Expand

    A phenomenal game, beautifully put together. It will go down as one of the all time greats. In every sense, a worthy ‘part II’ to the original game, improved in every way, but with a much more complex story to tell.

    Part II does something I’ve never seen in a game before in the best possible way. The combat is gripping, the environments and attention to detail is fantastic and the motion capture and acting is masterful. Plus I can’t remember any game where someone’s seamlessly taken their shirt off.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game was probably the biggest letdown in gaming for me other than Fallout. I won’t lie though the graphics and sound of this game were incredible. The gameplay was chill kinda like the first one but they’ve added stuff like a pointless jumping mechanic. But honestly I never cared about TLOU 1 for its gameplay because I was completely engrossed in the story. This one was not the sequel it deserved. Anyone saying if you don’t like the story you are homophobic or transphobic is using these marginalized communities to hide behind the horrible story telling and poor character development. This story is about revenge and anger and you’re telling me it took Naughty Dog 7 years to come up with the only way for Ellie to realize the devastation of revenge by killing a pregnant woman?!?! Mind you that same woman wanted to go fight while being how many months pregnant? Do better. You don’t even sympathize with Abby’s crew cause there no reasonable backstory for them and are not relatable. The game is not re-playable and there’s no multiplayer. Not worth $60 imo. Although I did enjoy fighting Ellie in the theater and the different ways she would take out Abby with a shotgun!… Expand

    It's not a "game" anymore, more like an amazing and hard experience. If you can’t accept the story, don’t strain yourself, cause it’s not your game, so move on.

When I play a game like this, the most important thing is the campaign and here is rubbish, in addition to killing the most important character in the franchise in a stupid way and trying to highlight the sexuality of some characters as if it were important, I feel that in this game executives reached out to be "inclusive" still on the technical side I can not complain much, compared to the first game there are not so many bugs, only enemies sometimes do not detect you even if you are in front of them.… Expand

    I really don’t understand the majority of hate towards this game. Maybe people are too attached to some of the characters of the first game (which understand as the first game incredible) and are upset they aren’t involved as much as they’d like, but even so I enjoyed the new characters enough that I didn’t mind that some others took a step back.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What a great game! The graphics, The gameplay. Incredible! And my thoughts on the story?
    I love Ellie and liked Joel, but what he did at the end of the first game was a hard decision but a wrong one. Killing Fireflies who fought for a future and a Doctor who was so precious in these times was unacceptable. It was tough how he got killed, but frankly, it was only a matter of time before someone demanded revenge.

    So it was Abby. I have to say I didn't like her in the beginning, but in the end, I did. And I was glad that she survived the game thanks to Ellie. Both paid a high price for their revenge.

    For example, after Joel Ellie lost her Horse Shimmer, Jesse, her ability to play guitar, her relationship, and almost Tommy. He lost an eye and his leg is ruined.

    After Jerry Abby lost her Dog, Alice, her love Owen and her friends Manny, Mel with her baby, Jordan, Leah, Nick, Nora, after being tortured by Ellie? Nora lived after we hit her three times with the pipe because Ellie returns to the theater and says: I made her talk.

    Anyway, it was a tough and long journey. Can't wait for part III. Thanks, Naughty Dog.    … Expand

    I loved the emotional aspects of this game! I also loved the graphics and the great use of them. At first I was angry with the choices in plot writing, but it came together wonderfully. Anyone **** clearly hasn’t actually played the game and is pissy Joel died and characters were gay.

    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]
