    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Allow me to preface this review by saying, there's a lot to unpack here. First, let's address the principle game-play, and more superficially, the visual artistry and fidelity. The Last of Us Part II really takes the original recipe, when it comes to combat, navigation, and general ease/deftness of movement, and refines it into something far more palatable for the current generation. that said, it's no reinvention, there's nothing revolutionary in it's realization, but there are some added spices that make it all the more enjoyable. Namely, the ability to dodge, go prone, and jump; simple quality of life improvements that actually make a world of difference in keeping things immersive and grounded. combat feels visceral, and supremely brutal, in its affect. Though even with this nuanced approach, and however immersive the character models and their wonderfully realized range of realistic expressions, conversations, and movement might be, enemies you encounter are often painfully oblivious on any difficulty. This often stands in stark contrast to the gravity of the situations you, Ellie, and Abbie, find yourselves in as you lurk about, head on a swivel, desperate to remain undetected by deadly enemies, before you realize that they must all suffer from severe vision impairment, as merely squatting far enough away in broad daylight, in direct line of sight, renders you nigh invisible. This is not to say that there aren't brilliant, spontaneous and organic moments to be had with this game's combat system, there are, and i find that these things largely balance each other out, but there is a certain amount of accompanying clunk, as much present today as it was on PS3, with the franchise's previous installment. Now, how all of this is presented, the way it looks, sounds, and behaves; gorgeous, simply immaculate. This is truly one of the most beautiful and articulate renderings of a world you will see this generation, the same could be said of the accompanying ambient environmental sounds as well as score. There's no lack of small lovingly, and painstakingly placed detail to just stop and marvel at. i found myself just taking moments to casually walk about and appreciate what it was i was seeing and just how authentic it felt. Not a title to be missed in this regard.

    Now, with regard to plot, theme, characters, and all that entails; I've read a lot of staunch opinions on this subject and can't say i agree with the vast majority of them. i won't presume to invalidate anyone else's opinion, but here are some thoughts, bearing in mind my opinion of this game's overarching story is, without a doubt, positive: our reintroduction to Joel and Ellie from the early hours of TLOU2 is the natural evolution of a relationship built upon Joel's decision from the previous game. A tremendously far reaching, and understandably, if not entirely justifiably, selfish decision to save someone he loved. A decision that Ellie ultimately discovered the truth of, shattering the trust between them. We see, and become aware, indirectly, of the weight placed upon Ellie in knowing that in some way the world and it's people may well have been doomed to suffer because of her. we see the resentment of being alienated in not being given a choice one way or another, perhaps she would have given her life if it meant a chance for a world that could recover. I'd like to think the old Ellie would have. this transformation into a darker shade of herself becomes apparent in the deftness and subtlety of storytelling and the supreme talent and quality of voice acting and motion capture. Like so many others in the world, Ellie became a person haunted by the irrevocable past. When, after Joel's death, she embarks on a quest for retribution, she is not herself, as so many have noted. but this is not some inexplicable change of character, rather the seething influence of grief. Ellie and Abby are foils of each other in this regard, and her role as a playable antagonist is not some device aimed at attempting to cajole pity or sympathy for the person or her actions, but to highlight what has always been evident: none of the central characters, not Joel, Ellie, Dina, Jesse, or Abby are "good" people, anymore than they are "bad" people. They have all done great and terrible things, to survive, to protect someone, to take control of their lives. The added perspective asks us to examine our all too common and selfish preconceived notions of what is right, wrong, or justified and to consider that perhaps there is no right answer. Everything that was lost by both Abby and Ellie by the end of their stories, all the pain visited upon them, was the direct product of their actions. That Ellie ultimately broke the cycle of aggression by sparing Abby does not rend meaning from experience. This was never a story of revenge, but an examination of the fragile and all too common human condition. This was not a perfect game, but it was truly meaningful and worthwhile.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. To put things in context I want to clarify two things up-front: 1. I absolutely loved TLOUS. An amazingly amazing adventure. Fabulous characters. Easily in my top 5 of the greatest games of alm time. 2. I don't care about the LGBTQ agenda. I know it's been unnecessarily pushed in this opus, but this didn't discourage me from looking forward to playing the game. Alright, I am going to be as concise as possible. I have created an account specifically to express my opinion and my absolute disgust over what happened. When I saw the leaks a couple of months ago I couldn't believe my eyes, so I canceled my preorder and waited for a review w/ spoilers before making a decision on how I should use my $62 (taxes man).

    Verdict: Neil Druckmann is a psychopath. This individual has a serious neurological/psychological problem. Not only he does my boy Joel dirty and makes my girl Ellie miserable, but his ultimate goal is to make you feel bad about everything you do. Making you feel guilty, ashamed, humiliated and desperate. For example when he forces you to kill pets, or when he makes you kill a pregnant woman (the pregnancy thing appeared three times btw), or when he makes Ellie want to play guitar with two missing fingers...this is pure degeneracy at this point. Games are supposed to make you go through a lot of emotions, including bad ones, but what Druckmann and Gross (name suits her like a glove) make you do is pure perversion. They should never touch a scenario again. Druckmann when he has full control over a script is dangerous.    … Expand

    Hard mode rewards exploration while not making stealth mandatory. Carry limits ensure you at least try every weapon or craftable piece of your arsenal. Combat is enjoyable with crafting and skills allowing you to play in your preferred way.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm not going to mince words with this review so let's get a few things out of the way before i get into the game. If your negative review is based in any way on the mere existence of LGBT characters, f*ck off. Your opinion of the game and your worldview are worthless. With that out of the way let me get into the game. Yes Joel dies early into the game, this game doesn't give plot armor to main characters. They are mortals who can easily be ambushed and killed. I should also mention that the theme of this game was stated to be hate, and so what better to drive that point home than a "pointless death" of a lead character early on. Ellie is left reeling from witnessing the death of Joel and does the thing that I think most people could relate to on a primal level, goes for revenge. Here is where I want to address one of the main critiques of the story I personally have seen. Yes the major arch of the game is a revenge plot. That is an archetype and completely fine for a game. It even plays heavily into the common truism that "Seek revenge and you should dig two graves, one for yourself." With that being said, the sheer violence and in your face behavior of the storytelling puts this in a league of its own. The deaths in this game are brutal, the killing nondiscriminate. It is this very violence that further drives home the point being made here. Yes revenge can be deadly, but moreso it doesn't take away the trauma of loss. It is this realization that Ellie has at the end. This is why she doesn't kill Abby. This narrative decision is far bolder than simply having her kill the character, and in my opinion far more impactful. Some will see that statement and argue that all of the killing done to get to that point is made pointless for this reason. What they would fail to understand is the killing was pointless either way. Ellie successfully taking revenge would not vindicate those she lost, nor would it justify the senseless loss of human life that led to that point. Ellie, like Abby and Tommy, let hatred consume them, and that cycle of hatred caused them to lose everything. Even Lev experiences the same consequences of hatred, though it is due to his love for the one who hates him that inevitably causes him to lose everyone dear to him. That is to say that the consequences of human prejudice and hatred are cast upon both perpetrator and victim equally. The cause of the war between the WLF and Scars is left it seems purposely vague to accentuate the fact that the constant deaths on either side are casualties of hatred. I could go on and on with intricacies of how layered the narrative of this game is, but it would likely fall on deaf ears. It seems that the majority of the community doesn't appreciate this form of storytelling, and frankly we are worse off for it. That being said, everyone is entitled to their opinion and in my opinion this game is an absolute masterpiece. It perfectly contrasts the themes of the first game, which was the stated intention, and delivers a heart wrenching story worthy of your time and money. I would say that the main takeaway of this game is that humanity is its on greatest enemy, and society (at least this post outbreak society) is doomed to destroy itself. There is hope presented at the end of the story, almost an homage to the hope presented in the first game, as the fireflies are said to be gathering numbers again, and who knows, with time perhaps they could rebuild. I know this review has been long winded, but I feel I must add that I do not intended to imply that if you did not enjoy the themes of the game you are lesser in any way. This isn't a "rick and morty fan" type review where I feel as if the people hating on the story are simply too stupid to understand its complexities. I think people understood it quite well, but being that it stands in direct contrast with the first game they don't enjoy it as a sequel. I'm giving this game a 10/10 for the emotional journey it dragged me on over the past few days.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is not a 10. But this game does not deserve the trash reviews it is getting. Half of these reviews make valid points but give scores that make no sense.

    Positives:
    -one of the most beautiful games on ps4
    -gorgeous environments and animations
    -the gore is great
    -fights are super fun and exhilarating -beautiful scenes and character moments throughout the game
    -very emotional game, some moments made me feel the same way i felt 1st watching the red wedding. I can say that only got and this game have ever affected me so much.

    Negatives :
    -the 1st game had a lot of sad moments and aspects however the beauty of joel and ellie's relationship made it all seem worth it. Last of us 2 is in need of some of these moments beacuse otherwise the game is just too sad and kinda broke me.
    -while some story moments aren't what i would've envisioned or liked to see for this game I can still respect them and make sense of them. Even if I dont like them doesn't make them wrong.

    Those that still hated abby at the end of the game really weren't paying attention. No one can say they didnt feel conflicted when playing as joel in the hospital during the 1st game. Playing as abby felt the same way. The entire time playing as her somehow made me somewhat care for all of the characters that were part of joel's death at the start of the game. By the end of it, i didnt want ellie to leave diana for revenge.

    Overall this game took over my life for a couple of days where i could only think about playing it. I dont know how such a game could ever be a 0/10 for anyone even with its faults    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I cannot believe ND went this way, I'm sure many other reviews that given insight into why this game is bad, so I'll sum it up with a few points:

    •Joel dies in the most stupidest way, and is portrayed as a dumbass, same with Tommy.

    •The game forces you to play as an unlikable character that you will NOT want to play as, that killed Joel all because of "being woke".

    •The rest of the time where you're not playing as the BS character, and you play as Ellie, it's either in flashbacks or a BS storyline that turns out to be totally pointless.

    •The old characters either end up dying, injured or alive but stupid AF, same with all the new characters, it's like ND grabbed people that really didn't want to act there part.

    •The ending is **** Ellie goes on a killing rampage where she murders hundreds of people for revenge, only to get to the person responsible for all her pain, what does she do? Let's her go. The whole entire plotline (or lack thereof) revolves around revenge, yet she doesn't get revenge.... huh?

    All in all the only thing I can give them credit for is animations, sound track and visuals.

    The gameplay is the same, and the story is a massive crap on what was a 7 year period to wait for what should've been a perfect game.    … Expand

    If you love the first one, you will like this - however it's a 1 and done and I won't replay it as the story has no replay ability.

    I loved the first one and was going into this unsure - the gameplay is fun, the graphics are good and the sound is good.

    The story is not good - I ended up skipping cut scenes as the story didn't make sense and chapter 6/7 dragged on far too much.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What I do not understand about this game is the logic behind the actions of the characters. Let's take Abigail as an example. Her father was killed by Joel in the first game. Her reaction was to take revenge on Joel for murdering her father. Due to the post apocalyptic nature of the game there is no society, ergo it can be argued that what Abigail did to Joel is a logical reaction to what Joel did to her (indirectly via killing her father). The game goes on and you see the characters interact with each other in various ways. The voice acting is top notch. The visuals/gameplay are all top tier. I will not be talking about the technical aspect of the game any further since that point has been stated many times by thousands of people. My gripe is with the story and how the characters act. Let's talk about Mel first. Mel is a pregnant woman who chooses to go to the front lines during the part of the game where you control Abigail. Why? You are pregnant?????? You can physically see her huge belly. What kind of backwards thinking is this? Not only are you endangering your life and the life of your unborn child, you are risking the life of Abigail and Emanuel (and the dog too). This is not the type of game that can allow this type of logic. This is not metal gear. During this mission they get into a car crash, fire fight with the cult, and fighting the mushroom zombies. At one point in order to get through an area Abigail boosts up Mel and you see her slamming her belly onto the metal thing she is trying to climb. You can hear it. I do not understand how this works? The other, and last, thing I want to talk about is Ellie's mission to get revenge and kill Abigail. Fueled by rage Ellie goes on a crusade and proceeds to kill many people, including the pregnant Mel and her unborn child, in order to reach Abigail and end it. This is the part that i do not understand. Ellie shows mercy and tells Abigail to leave. The moment this happened all the lives Ellie took were for nothing. Their deaths meant nothing. Their deaths were as insignificant as the deaths of bugs hitting your windshield. What was the character thinking at the time? Hopped up on all that adrenaline from losing two of her fingers (which is scientifically impossible for a human to do but I digress) how can she make the choice to leave Abigail after all that. I understand that games are subjective not objective, that means what i do not necessarily like someone else will. Yet I find that there is a line somewhere that separates subjectivity from objectivity. Things like plot holes and continuity errors should be objective not subjective. I find how Ellie acts to be illogical. It is true, hatred only begets hatred. And while crude the term "Revenge Bad" is inherently true. The problem lies with how the characters decided to act on these statements. Abigail disregarded the reason that Joel killed her father and acted on her hatred. After Ellie is sparred by Abigail, she makes a conscience decision to act on her hatred and try to kill Abigail. If Ellie wanted for the cycle of hatred to end then she should have stayed with Dina at the farm. The moment she went out of her way to find Abigail, killing anyone and anything that stands in her way, she should have had the resolve to see what she was doing through. Imagine john wick killing all those henchmen and goons and after reaching the guy that killed his dog he just spares him. That feels off doesn't it? Imagine Kratos reaching Zeus, after all the killing that he did, and he just leaves. This is what happened in the last of us part 2, Ellie leaves Abigail free. This is not the same girl from the first game. It is disappointing. if you enjoyed the game then I am glad that you had fun. I just wish that I did too.… Expand

I honestly think it's ridiculous how much negativity this game is receiving. I especially think this game is receiving unfair negative reviews from honestly, homophobes.

    The gameplay is genuinely superb. There wasn't a moment where I felt fully captivated in each encounter and had a variety of options to approach. The combat system is great and provides even a small-thrilling challenge even on moderate. No game is really enjoyable if you can go through the whole game with barely a scratch.
    There were moments where I got jumped by scares and felt anxious to press forward. I loved the thrill the game provided. Most of all the game provided fluid close quarter combat. I found this to be one of the game's best new mechanics. Being able to dodge melee enemies and counter attack felt really fluid and fun. The game provides you with enough creativity when approaching different groups of hostiles.

    The story was captivating from beginning to end. In contrast to most user reviews, I grew emotionally attached to the characters. I personally was satisfied, yet unsatisfied with the ending (but in a good way). With the way the game unfolds and plays out, I felt like Naughty Dog took the best approach to end the game. I felt quite similar to the first game's ending. The characters have a lot of depth and growth as the game progresses. I found the direction of the story to be great! It was unorthodox, in that it sowed the present and past to tell a great emotional story.

    Despite what other reviews say, this game deserves the score that Naughty Dog worked so hard for. 10/10. I genuinely am saddened by the negativity user's are giving it just because the story may have not gone the way they wanted it to. Especially the negative reviews that are bashing the game solely because it contains a homosexual couple. I’m also under the impression that a lot of people who reviewed the game also didn’t finish the game. I felt like it was an authentic aspect with the characters, in no way did it feel forced. Most user reviews act like the writers pooped the bed and just developed a "fund-raiser" game. I think Naughty Dog did a phenomenal job. No game is perfect and will satisfy you in every way, but this game was extremely enjoyable and gave me a lot to think about when I wasn't playing.

    This game definitely deserves your attention and a full play through. Do I think this game is perfect? No. However, I do think this game deserves the high score with all of its production qualities, story telling mechanics, and enjoyable gameplay. I very much enjoyed this game and would put this in my PS4/Xbox One generation top 3!    … 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]
