    By no means can the media or high-score reviews plead for the innocence of Neil Duckman for his guilt in totally crashing down all the precious memory and love they built in the previous game. Love and desire are the healthy and happy driving force that keeps you going, hatred which is the theme of the part 2 is not something that educative, but something morbidly depressing and torturous.By no means can the media or high-score reviews plead for the innocence of Neil Duckman for his guilt in totally crashing down all the precious memory and love they built in the previous game. Love and desire are the healthy and happy driving force that keeps you going, hatred which is the theme of the part 2 is not something that educative, but something morbidly depressing and torturous. Feeling pain to treasure life isn't a method common to normal people, only the monks trying to get atonement by walking through difficult journeys. How much of us are tough enough to be like that? We are already living in a world full of pressure. It's a better way to wake our conscience with touching plot rather than forcing players to walk through fire and forget their pain, and even to beautify or praise pain, just for that you can be as numb as a sadistic killer when it gets too strong… Expand

    Naughty dog did a great job on ruining one of their best franchise. I cant believe everyone in the company agreed with the plot

    gráficos geniales (me encanto), jugabilidad buena, pero demasiado repetitivo y monótono, falta variedad a la larga se vuelve aburrido, la historia sin sentido... pesima.

    I had the same view as most of the people on here, I loved the first game, my favorite game of all time, and this comes second place and I speak true from my heart, I wasn't even going to buy the game in the first place due to leaks, but my friend bought it and we shared it, and I loved it, it was a rollercoaster of emotions, and it's beautiful, dont jump into any conclusions, and get the game

    except the "jumping" stuff they're so proud about, the gameplay mechanics are beautiful.
    other than that, for being called a "masterpiece" of the decade, the story is **** **** and the ending doesn't even make sense.
    Absolute disgrace of a so called "masterpiece".

    Being a fan of the first game, I was so excited to play this one. I preordered the collectors edition as soon as it was available and have been counting the days ever since.

I preordered the collectors edition as soon as it was available and have been counting the days ever since. On Friday my collectors edition was just shipped but was not going to be here till the following week so being the guy that I am I bought the digital version. I downloaded it Friday night and after work on Saturday I started playing it, starting right off the bat there is a lot of emotion and I can understand why people don’t like what happens. I finished the game Late Sunday night, I didn’t take time to fully explore some of the areas because I was interested in where the story was going. I really loved the game, there was something’s I thought should have been different but with all games there are some things not everyone will like but all in all I feel this game is worthy of trying. I never seen the leaks before playing so I didn’t have it spoiled for me, the story is very dark and there is a lot of violence so I can understand some people will be turned away from that but the game is one of my favorites and I really enjoyed it. The story is very interesting and shows us some different perspectives that have a lot of emotion. Naughty dog did real well with this game in my opinion. Thank you.… Expand

    I dont want to play again.

    Bad Story line ruined the game.

    As director said,

    I will begin the analysis explaining the title, I do not know the rest but where I am from the game comes 100 dollars, the base game without any extra question, lately it is turning out for me personally that I am paying dearly for the disappointments at the audio visual level on various platforms , to see it goes without spoilers and graphically short it is a spectacular game, at a sound level it is fantastic (and if you see that the song they included came out a bit expensive since it only comes out once and is the only one you will hear in everything the game) at the level of gameplay nothing new under the sun does not detach much from the rest of the games that are on the lap and personally it makes me stretch it a lot and I see it a bit repetitive, innovating does not innovate much that we say but we are going to the problem, the playable decisions and narratives, there I find a loose game, quite loose, with issues put in shoehorn and I do not know if the expression exists in their countries, it makes me a game very for the hobby (plays for current fashions). alles, the press and it is very politically correct, if you do not believe it), it can be said that the game is divided in two and that is where another problem arises, forcing empathy, specifically a game that you are going to end up exhausted by the length and how forced it is in various situations, where the premise of the trip is diluted as the hours of play go by and with an ending that at least personally leaves me quite unhappy and with a very bad taste of mouth and that at least personally I recommend you buy when its price drops.
    Very far from being the game of the year ...    … Expand

    I'm going to divide this review into two parts: story and gameplay:

    Story: No spoilers. While the previous game has a lot of problems on logics with how biology should've worked, you could still argue that those were done for the need of plot for the overall storyline, no matter how poorly those plots were presented and how bad the logic could be, it was at least a good story that    I'm going to divide this review into two parts: story and gameplay:

While the previous game has a lot of problems on logics with how biology should've worked, you could still argue that those were done for the need of plot for the overall storyline, no matter how poorly those plots were presented and how bad the logic could be, it was at least a good story that provides us to reflect ourselves. You cannot defend the story of this game like the previous one. There are simply way too many problems on how you lay out the story, the progress, and how it was told, and for a game that took 7 years to finish, at some point, someone in the whole dev team had to ask this question: is that really the way we want to tell the story? Does that really line up to the way we tell the story in our previous game? Apparently none of those questions was asked, else the story and human logic would've been more polished.

    Gameplay:
    Nothing new. Seriously, nothing new or outbreaking. Solid? yes. But nothing that really provided excitement. At least no bugs, right?    … Expand

    Ps solo puedo decir q no cumplió con mis expectativas, la historia no fue muy de mi agrado, lo de estar abriendo puerta de me hizo repetitivo, la jugabilidad se mantuvo prácticamente igual, el apartado sonoro bueno más no destacabldbueno pero no destacable, los gráficos si son excelentes

    Positive: Graphics, Gameplay, the E&J flashbacks

    Negative: the story, the new characters, the unsatisfying and stupid ending that devaluates everything you did in this game

    The fact that you are forced to play as A for 10-14 hours is insulting. I will NEVER preorder a naughty dog game again.

    A continuation of the story told my part 1, it goes beyond just telling a story and marries art, gameplay, music and cinematics to build a smoth, yet gruesome experience of loss, hate, vengeance and above all, consequences. TLOU part 2 is an achievement of the medium.

    The game is amazing, not better than the first but really keeps you on the edge of your seat and gives you that heavy dose of reality with amazing scenery. Despite what everyone says I really think people need to actually play this with an open mind or at least watch a fully playthrough. Neil and the crew at Naughty Dog did a fantastic job. I'm starting my second run on the game now.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Perfect!

    Ellie cannot live a fairy tale simply because the first game never aimed for it. It is cruel but it is true. Ellie has a much bigger purpose in all of this. She has a cure for humanity. And that's the beauty of the ending. The final memory with Joel makes her wake up. "My life has a purpose, and it is above a desire for revenge and a desire to live an ordinary life." So she lets Abby live, lets go of the guitar, grab her backpack and sets out to find her purpose. Thats the beautiful of the game. Abby gets real before that. The desire for revenge deflected the purpose and took everything away from them both. And Tommy! I believe that part 3 (if happens) will work on the redemption of Ellie and Dina in search for a cure. What do you think?    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game really is a masterpiece. I'm into survival horror much more than action/adventure, so I am surprised that anyone could have a problem with the game being "unrelentingly bleak." For me, that a bonus. The gameplay and storyline are ethically demanding and emotionally taxing. You are forced to reckon with the violence your characters partake in and from multiple angles. Becoming attached to opposing characters in the game made it truly disturbing and uncomfortable when circumstances got reversed. This kind of storytelling is more common in literature than in games, and I appreciated it greatly. Beware of all the snap judgments out there: a proper playthrough takes 25 to 35 hours, and the internet was flooded with bashing mere hours after release. On top of that, characters not behaving the way you wish they would is not a plot hole.… Expand

    My heart is broken. At first it was anger, disappointment. But now it's just emptiness.

    People have been waiting for so many years, and for what?

I loved these characters, their story from first game. All that    My heart is broken. At first it was anger, disappointment. But now it's just emptiness.

    People have been waiting for so many years, and for what? To pay a lot of money for the nice picture and long, boring gameplay, during which these "geniuses" from Naughty Dog make us watch how everything, that we loved, is destroyed?

    I loved these characters, their story from first game. All that they both went through. They are not heroes, they did a lot of controversial and bad things. But this is a post-apocalypse, people survive as they can. And we understood that. We CAN understand this all.

    The salvation of a loved one is something, that we can feel, understand, and we would do the same. Joel’s action at the end of the first game was not good or right, but we would do the same. The end of the first game was great, so why continue?

    They destroyed everything. They abused what was dear to us. They did it dirty, stupid, not logical, cheap and sterile. So stupid that I have no words. They destroyed the very essence of the characters. Deprived them of themselves. They took what they undeservedly inherited from the glory of the first game and created a terrible homunculus out of stupidity, hatred and illogicality.

    There were so many opportunities and ideas, so much could have been done in these seven years. But they did the worst imaginable. They created a stupid and empty character, a girl with a bodybuilder body (yes, there is no post-apocalypse around, and everyone has their own gym and a huge number of proteins, proteins and carbohydrates), and gave her the power to create the fate of our favorite characters. It causes the players only one desire - turn off the game and no longer play it. Forgetting her like a nightmare.

    The mere desire to fulfill revenge gave strength to overcome this stupid game, but even this will not be given to us. They were supposed to give players the right to choose at the end of the game, but what I’m talking about... "Give us your money, take this bad fan fiction, and swallow the dirt with tears in your eyes, homophobes!" But what does homophobia have to do with it? This is not the problem with this game! This whole game is one big problem. Neil **** is a problem. And I hope, that soon as many people as possible will understand this and realize how cruelly deceived all of us are.    … 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]
