    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Honestly, i love Last of Us first part. Ok u almost didnt change gameplay things - for sure its incredible hard to improve, still possible but its too hard. You got a really BIG money for this game and u did THIS? Guys this game is literally trash. LGBT Elli? Sure why not, noone cares about it, let her do whatever u want. But what the heck was that plot? You killed one of the most popular characters and expecting what? Im just continue that game, when half of game im playing on character what i hate. Next time, please, use your own brain and delete this screenwriter from this project. I finished that game just with laught. Theres no reason to cry or feel some sad, u just creat game part 1 with so DEEP and COOL plot and then u creat THIS. Imagine why do you have so bad negative reviews? You didnt pay so much for players to write that one, sadly almost all the big reviews payed. Hope you enjoy what u did, u just spit on face to all Last of Us series fans. Good job. Expand

    This is the best game I will ever play I feel. It's perfect in every way and has changed my life and my entire perspective on life, death, and pain.

It's perfect in every way and has changed my life and my entire perspective on life, death, and pain. It makes you appreciate what we have in 2020 despite all the bullsh*t because as humans we have been through the pain of these characters 1000 years ago before everything was warm and cozy like it is today (in comparison to when we were cavemen).

    Every mechanic. Every voice line. Every twist and turn in the story, is perfect and I haven't nor will I ever hold a game closer to my heart than this game.

    Going through this game and experiencing everything these characters go through, you build an actual real-life relationship with them. And when these characters go through positive or negative emotions, the player directly feels them. In the last scene of this game my heart broke, it gave me intense flashbacks to when my nan passed, and when I lost who I thought at the time was the love of my life. And I cried and cried and cried.

    This game is not for the light-hearted, it's actually emotionally draining playing a game with such intense emotion. I loved it, and I hated it, and that's life. You can't go through it with everything good, happy, and perfect. People die, get sick. People leave and leave you broken and the last of us portrayed these human emotions we all feel perfectly.

    Thank you to all the people who helped make this game possible. Thankyou naughty dog. I aspire to write a book that is as emotionally intense as the story for this game, you have all inspired me to be a better person. Thank you.

    I will actually play the game and I can say: do not believe those zero marks that the game received! They are just frustrated xbox players and prejudiced gamers who do not accept our reality today. The game is grade 10, with praise!

People are just upset ‘cause things don’t happen the way they want to and forget the games deal with loss and consequences all the time. Excelent gameplay alongside a story that shows exactly how humans feelings should work in this post-apocalyptic world. Masterpiece. Expand

    Excelente game! A história mostra a realidade de como seria na vida real uma mundo pós apocalíptico, com amores e mortes de quem mais amamos. Gráfico, trilha sonora, enredo, arte gráfica e dublagem em PT impecáveis

    Buen juego, en todos los aspectos. Quizas la historia no es mejor que TLOU 1, pero sigue estando bien contada y con muy buena cinematografía. Lo que pasa es que a la generacion de cristal le picó el potito con los temas que trata la historia, pero es un excelente juego, que muestra la escencia de la humanidad.

    It's really good. I personally enjoy the Last of us more for the world building not so much the characters themselves. This game is a beautiful Display of a apocalypse future that isn't shy of showing the reality of mankind without true leadership. I found the Relationship between each character spot on for the world they inhabit.

    "I almost feel bad for loving it." This is a quote from someone discussing the end of the game on Reddit.

This negativity wasn't coming from people who didn't like the game and wanted to vent. It came from people who have never played this game and want nothing more that to get everyone to hate it. If you think the game's current 3.6 user score is representative of actual consumer opinion, know that this game was already this low before it was physically possible to even get through half the game. So do not take this user score into account. Find a real human being whose opinion you value and listen to what they have to say about the game. Expand

    My brain malfunctioned during the entire post credit scene… Prob it’s the unpopular opinion now but I appreciate Naughty Dog took risks. Not just lgbtq theme wise but rather the main discussion point of the game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I know for some people the last 3 months of our quarantine have been rough but this game has been like a rainbow after the Storm. I have missed Ellie and Joel! The Last of Us has been one of my favorite games for a long time since then I've played it at least seven times I am so eager to finish part 2. I don't mind Ellie being gay but I feel that it is straight up in your face the entire game. If Ellie was straight and had a boyfriend constantly bumping into me I would feel the same way. The Last of Us is not a romantic love story but a "father-daughter" relationship based on trust and hardship. I feel that Ellie nor Joel's sexual preference should be a side story in this storyline. Ellie's girlfriend has less personality than a plank of wood and really could have played the game without her. We should have had more time with Joel but I also understand they needed to move the story along. The nostalgia in this game is one I hold close to my heart. I love how some things have not changed such as the way we upgrade guns, search for loot, take medicine for upgrades, and the menu and how you make medkits and bombs. I love the collectibles and how Ellie writes everything in her journal. I think naughty dog did awesome with the graphics and show how time passes but the world stayed the same.
    The handling of the characters could use some work. I hate how Ellie jumps and the noises she makes. I'm glad they kept the same type of "infected" and impressed with the new.
    I like how they opened up the map especially in Seattle up I just wish they had a better navigation system. I don't like the fact that if I miss something I can't go back. Overall I am very pleased with this game.

Следует отметить, что восприятие игры сильно зависит от от того, как вы относитесь к первой части игры. И если первая часть вам понравилась, то вторая порвет вам жопу. Если не понравилась, то она все равно подожжëт вам пятую точку. Игру можно разделить на две части, первая из них понравится почти всем, вторая - взбесит вообще всех, кого только можно. Вы будете цепляться к каждому косяку, искренне ненавидеть каждого персонажа и не понимать, почему Нил Дракман решил сделать две игры в одной, когда этого не требовалось. К проблемам второй половины игры добавляется вторичный геймплей и бэк трэкинг (на одной локации мы побываем 5 раз). По моим ощущениям, вот эти 12 часов надо перетерпеть, стиснув зубы. Но это того стоит, Нил Дракман понимал, что вся эта ненависть и общее раздражение с усталостью должны довести игрока до того же состояния, что и одного из главных героев. И вот когда ты смотришь на финальную катсцену ты понимаешь, для чего все это нужно было. Отдельно стоит высказаться о ЛГБТ составляющей. С одной стороны, в целом это очень органично вплетено в повествовании и следить за этим даже приятно (а это говорю я, белый мужщина традиционной ориентации). Вот во второй половине игры начинается перебор. В сюжете появляется трансвестит, и он до конца игры будет действовать на нервы. Как будто взяв специальную методичку, авторы упорно вдабливают нас мысль, что это нормально, и на этом построена добрая, большая часть второй половины игры. Взаимоотношения между персонажами, к сожалению, не вытягивают. Единственная пара, за которой интересно наблюдать и сопереживать - это та же Элли и Джоэль из флешбеков. Я ничего не сказал про геймплей, дизайн, графику, режиссуру и катсцены просто потому что все это выполнено на великолепном уровне, это новая планка в игровой индустрии (кроме геймплея, он просто становится вторичным из-за затянутости самой игры). И ещё кое-что перед итогом - первая часть мне не понравилась только одним моментом - это концовка, я считал, что Джоэл похоронил человечество и он не имел права так делать. После всех прочтенных записок, сцен и увиденной жести, понимаешь, что он все сделал правильно и одновременно с этим еще больше проникаешься к Элли и тому, что она хочет сделать. Если подводить какой-то итог, то в эту игру стоит поиграть каждому. Она понравится не всем, далеко не всем, но обсуждать её вы будете долго. Такого сюжетной приёма никто не ждал, для меня он сработал, хоть и пришлось терпеть, при чём долго. 8,5/10 Expand

    I am 10-15 hours in the game (Seattle day 2) on hard difficulty. I am starting to believe that this is getting review bombed by the Xbox trolls or entitled 9 year-olds that are mad that the game did not go their way.
    Don't worry guys, i hear the next one will be just Joel and Ellie hunting in the woods, nobody gets hurt, not even the animals, they just heal them back up after they shoot

    Don't worry guys, i hear the next one will be just Joel and Ellie hunting in the woods, nobody gets hurt, not even the animals, they just heal them back up after they shoot them. There, Hollywood ending for you all.
    These crybabies are even down voting positive reviews because some people actually enjoyed the game and don't share their view, while circle jerking their own negative ones.

    The game is in every way better that the first one, and yes, I've seen the leaks and the ending. I pre-ordered it after seeing the leaks. I don't care about the political agenda, i don't pay attention to it, I'm concentrating on the post-apocalyptic game. After all the internet outrage, i was expecting flying unicorn LGTBs shooting rainbows. It's nothing like that, it's barely noticeable, just the edgy children blowing it out of proportion.
    Every encounter I've had is memorable, maybe because also the lack of supplies and difficulty. I am actually reluctant to start playing it again because i know I'm gonna sink another 8 hours in it and then the day has passed.
    I don't think there is more to say about the graphics, environments, sound design, acting, and overall polish of the game, this is basically a PS 5 game for the PS 4, I just wanted to clear the story part: IT'S GOOD!
    PS: I don't post reviews on Metacritic, but i had to post this one because of the injustice this game was getting.

    People have bombed the user rating of the game, either because they did not like something that happened quite early in the game, and chose not to give the rest of the game a chance. or they are angry since its an exclusive that they wont get to play.

    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]
