None of the side characters have any meaningful development, the plot goes nowhere, the ending is trite and unsatisfying, the gameplay is incredibly repetitive, and it's genuinely not an enjoyable experience. The first game set a standard of beautiful story telling, and this does the opposite - quality story telling has been set aside in favor of making a political statement. It doesn't matter how sympathetic I am to the cause, or how much I stand for the right to use your platform to make a statement -- when you sacrifice the quality of your product for it, you're just a shill.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Over all I gave it a 2.

    I was so mad when I started to write this review I was going to give it a 0 but to be fair the graphics are fantastic, but that is about all I can say good about the game.

    I will be completely honest, I have not yet completed the game but I know how it ends from the many reviews I have read. Knowing the ending of a story does not spoil the experience for me so I often read spoilers on games and movies and still enjoy them.
    I doubt the ending will bother me as much as it seems to have bothered everyone else but I will not know that till i get there, If i get there, there are so many other things to hate about this game I don't know if I will even bother finishing it

    The game mechanics are stale at best and frustrating most of the time There is no real improvement over the first game, the crafting system is almost identical and in some ways worse. I was always full of supplies with the exception of 1 item. sometime it was tape, sometimes it was alcohol but you can bet it was always something just way to scarce on every level. It was the same with ammo.

    I get it you have to be smart with your supplies to make it thru a level but if that is what they were going for they failed, you don't have to be smart with supplies. you just have to know what they are going to be shorting you on any given level and don't use it, you will have plenty of something else to get you thru. What is the plan there? is it supposed to be fun to fail at a level and replay it once you know what supplies they will give you? it does not force you to come up with a strategy to get thru just get lucky or replay after you have the answer.

    The Infected are not hard to fight, just time consuming, the bosses on the other hand are ridiculous, for me at least it is more about luck then skill to beat them, run around and hammer them with whatever you find till they die. again no real strategy there just try try again till you find what you need to kill them.

    And for god's sake could you please continue more than 1 second before you are killed. I mean come on, If i learn i need pipe bombs or the flame thrower to kill it why cant i restart the fight with the knowledge i learned while it just killed me. No, continue smash, no time to re adjust you setup, just right back in it. They don't really let you play your own way. I like to play stealth as much as possible but you are forced to run and gun so much. they have the leveling system set up as if you can play thru the game in different ways but you really can not. you have to stealth where you have to, and you have to Rambo it in other places. no real choice.

    I fairly deep into the second 1/2 of the game ,or so I assume based on what I know, and the one thing i can tell you is who ever was in charge of character development should be brought in for a performance review.
    in truth it is not fair to blame 1 person, everyone had to know this game would be hated by the "Last of US" fans, the story and characters are so bad, no one at naughty dog could have miss it. (naughty dog in lower case on purpose, you guys and gals have a lot of work to do if you want to get a "N" and "D" from me again anytime soon). It is sad, the first game was so good, it seems improbable that the second one could be so bad.

    I played the "Last Of Us" several time. I would go back to find more hidden items or just relive the story. everyone you met in the first game had depth. you felt that the character was pulled from someones real life event or felling, It was not just Joel and Ellie, everyone in the game felt real, you loved some people, you hated others, but everyone had a reason for who they were.

    Last of Us Part II could not have been worst.
    I don't care about anyone in this game. I don't even hate anyone, It is hard to love or hate the flat cardboard cutouts they are calling characters
    Joel and Ellie are flat, there is just nothing there, if it was not for the 1st game I would not care about them either.

    Everyone else in the game is as deep and the letter or number I assume they were assigned in the story outline they should have just named them all 1.2.3 or a.b.c. There is just nothing there.

    On the up side if you cant write a good story you can always cram some woke character traits into your characters so you can call everyone a "phobe" or "hater" if they complain. making a character gay or trans is not the same as making a character real or deep, it is just a cheat,

    Before you send the woke police after me, I have nothing against gay, bi, trans or anyone for that matter (I am sorry if I forgot to mention a group everyone is loved and respected
    I hope I used all the right words to describe people in this section. everyone should be who they are and is respected as a person not for their pronoun.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The last of us 2 is a mess of a game. The gameplay itself is extremely dated and doesn't build upon the first games mechanics, making them feel stagnant in comparison. The story however, is worse. I dont hold any grudges to the game's developers or writers, but the story is just horrendous. First off they killed off a fan favourite character in a very unceremonious way, almost abandoning what his character was built on. Second they force you to play as a new character who's only "connection" to the story is killing joel. The whole motivation of ellie's development was revenge on abby for removing her father figure, the same way joel removed her own father. But the whole game is a bait and switch. Nothing comes out of the story other than the death of a beloved character, the mutilation of the character we protected throughout the first game and nothing else. It was all for nothing, no pay off, no satisfaction of killing a character who essentially tormented ellie, all for nothing. I hated this game, I hated playing it, the seraphites hardly show up, despite the trailers implying that they had a large role to play. And the infected take a back seat.
    I wasnt expecting joel to survive to the end of the game. But they proved how little they cared about the characters and the fans with this atrociously written, virtue signalling game. All in all?
    I hated it.    … Expand

    My issue is the gameplay. I play games because I want to feel a sense of accomplishment by defeating the game. But games like last of us or red dead only focus on the story.

    The gameplay introduces a couple of new mechanics but remains essentially the same. Some of the levels do drag a bit, and without a solid story to push you through, the game becomes boring in parts.

    The graphics and sound are outstanding. While some of the characters might be flawed and/or unlikeable, the voice acting is great as expected considering the talent involved. Sadly, it’s not enough to make the experience a good one.

    Finally, the game was advertised as something completely different through deceptive advertising, false statements from the game makers, altered game footage and obvious manipulation/censoring of early reviews.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In a community of multiplayer experiences and competitive gaming, single player/story driven games have always been my favorite. Of course, I have always loved diving into a game like Valorant or Overwatch or even a fun party game from time to time but story driven games will always have a special place in the world of gaming. Instead of being explicitly told a story, games allow us to come along for the ride. For The Last of Us 2, this is arguably for the worst. Although a technical and visual masterpiece, the story leaves the player manipulated into cheapening everything from the first game. The player is made to feel guilty for a murder that never was forced upon the player in the first game in the first place. Then the player is made to sympathize with a new character. I get it but I also don't care because the story is poorly paced and manipulative in how it portrays its characters. Ellie is demonized by the decisions you are forced to make and Abby never has to make said choices that would make the player feel conviction. It feels less like this moral grey area the writers thought they were making and more like forcing their feelings of the main characters onto the player. The writer's described their intentions as to "make the player question everything from the first game". This game made me really question every decision involving the writing in the second game. Neil Druckman and the writers really threw away what is otherwise a beautiful game with their heavy handed, shallow story telling that ultimately makes for an unsatisfying sequel.… Expand

The combat and game play shine but the story is one giant sequence of torture porn where Ellie is turned to a monster, Joel gets the most undeserving and horrifying death and Abby is just one of the most horrible video game characters ever written. The Last of Us Part 1 is a masterpiece. This game spits in that games face and curb stomps it into the ground.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. En un juego como The last of us no puedes solo fiarte de tu jugabilidad y gráficos a la hora de crear el juego, en este tipo de juegos la historio llega a ser mucha mas importante que los anteriores, por ende, este es el aspecto del que voy a basar mi comentario y puntuación... En resumen, simplemente en The last of us part II la historia no logra las expectativas que se tenían y muchos van a querer que este juego quede en el olvido.

    Para comenzar, es increible como pueden terminar con la historia de un personaje tan importante de una forma tan simple (la muerte de Joel fue como la muerte de un NPC de un videojuego cualquiera), ademas, no se da la oportunidad de jugar con este personaje a pesar de ser el actor principal en la primera entrega, solo los primeros 5 minutos del juego montando a caballo. Por otra parte tampoco se permite visualizar al personaje por mucho tiempo, ademas de no poder jugar con el, el personaje no aparece por mas de 20 - 30 minutos en la totalidad del juego. Sin embargo, es entendible que no se le diera tanta jugabilidad a este personaje, pues fue el papel principal en la primera entrega y era el turno de Elli, ademas tampoco se debe complacer a los fans en todo lo que piden, pero esto no justifica lo que la franquicia acaba de hacer con uno de sus personajes estelares de una forma tan ilógica.

    Ahora bien, en cuanto a la nueva protagonista lo que se puede decir es muy subjetivo, pero obligar al jugador a pasar la mitad del juego con un personaje que en la primera parte del juego adquiere todo el odio de los que jugaron la primera entrega, es también algo ilógico, ya que solo hace que el jugador se canse del juego e incluso poder llegar a abandonarlo sin completarlo ya que es un juego bastante extenso. No se si la intensión de los creadores era hacer sentir pena por la nueva personaje (Abby), o intentar tenerle cariño o aprecio como usualmente pasa con los personajes de videojuegos en los que hay una gran historia, pero puedo decir que obligar a jugar con un personaje no va a hacer que se le aprecie, son las acciones que realiza a lo largo de la historia lo que si lo hace, y simplemente haber matado un personaje estelar no va a permitir tener empatia con este nuevo personaje de la entrega. Se puede decir que los creadores no supieron implementar bien este personaje en lo absoluto.

    Por otra parte, si nos vamos al final del juego tampoco se entiendo lo que los creadores de The last of us part II quieren acá, no se puede comprender como se pueden pasar tantas horas de juego intentando buscar una venganza para al final dejar ir y al parecer perdonar a la persona que se persiguió por tanto tiempo, ¿acaso intenta dejar una enseñanza o algo por el estilo?, porque en videojuegos como este, esa no es una de las metas que deben tener los creadores en mente (es como querer dejar un buen mensaje al final de jugar todo GTA V), no se que pensó el director de este videojuego al redactar el final. Como deje anteriormente, no se debe complacer a los fans en todo, pero este no era el caso, y los creadores no supieron como hacer las cosas bien a lo largo del juego y mucho menos en el final de este.

    Para finalizar se podría decir que The last of us part II no logro cumplir las expectativas tan altas que dejo la primera entrega, esto debido a no saber continuar una historia con una buena calidad, a pesar de que el en la primera parte se dejo la posibilidad clara de poder continuarla de la forma adecuada, incluso matando a Joel (de la forma adecuada, en el momento adecuado y sin obligar a jugar con el asesino para "encariñarse" con el).

    En un juego como este la historia es lo principal y debe ser el factor mas importante a lo hora de la calificación.    … Expand

Если бы это было отдельной игрой, а не продолжением первой части, то было бы не так плохо, ведь те персонажи, которые нам полюбились, или безжалостно "убраны", либо изменены настолько, что являются полной противоположностью, не тем, чем были в первой части. Вместо этого всего в игру напичкали новых героев, на которых тебе похкр, ну нету к ним привязанности. Финал - отдельная песня. Элии убила 100500 человек, ради мести Эбби, но саму Эбби так и не убила? Да, нам показывали, что она сама просто мстила Джоэлу, но это видели мы, не Элли! С чего бы ей вдруг было её щадить? Ладно, кому-то сюжет может понравиться, не спорю, кто-то увидит в нем глубокий смысл, но я так не считаю. Кроме посредственного сюжета в игре присутствуют баги, но стоит отметить, что многие мелкие детали, как записи в дневнике, создают свою атмосферу. Графика не на последнем уровне, саундтрек неплохой, на этом все.

    The narrative for this game is just a mess. Tells a tale of two people who sought revenge. One of them seems to have no issues with it and is perfectly fine emotionally. The other one develops ptsd and shows clear emotion. Game makes it way too obvious it wants you to like one character and not the other.

The devs have pushed the Ps4 to its limits and I was in shock and awe how great it looked. The story however is slow, full of many nee characters which dilute the game down so much. I didn’t really care about Dina or Jesses love triangle that was pushed on me. Boy oh boy, section two playing as Abbey was a snooze fest. Neil Druckman, I don’t care about two sides to the story gimmick. I savagely executed 100s of people in the game, who had no links to Joel and the only person you cannot kill the Abbey!!? Wtf

The graphics, and game play were great, but I was here for a great story and it fell flat on it's face. Everything with Ellie was great, and the story was advancing beautifully... and than I had to control Abby? The person who killed Joel? The person who I've been trying to kill for over a dozen hours? Am I supposed to emphasize with her, because I didn't. The entire story portion of the Abby story was awful and everything felt unbelievably forced. The ending had no resolution... zero. Ellie travels across the country, giving up her girlfriend and "son" and doesn't kill Abby? Zero resolution. I spent 25 hours for nothing essentially. Joel was dead and Abby was alive in the first 2 hours of the game, and at the end it was the same exact thing. I don't know what Naughty Dog was thinking. Maybe they wanted to try to be "deep", but this has been a huge disappointment for me, all due to extremely poor story telling. I am going to delete this from my system and pretend like it doesn't exist. The first game was a masterclass in both game play and story telling, and while the game play was top notch, fans of the first should not be able to get over how poorly the story was told in this. They said they would not make DLC and now I'm happy about that. I hope they let this series go because it's a shame what they did to it.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It is unavoidable that the theme is how NaughtyDog deals with the stubborn relationship in 1.
    However, it is difficult to tolerate the present work, whose humanity and affection before the pandemic disappeared from the root.
    Negative emotions are too great to make Joel a foremost player by putting Joel on the forefront.
    It seems like a consistent theme from the previous work, and I will never be convinced by the sequel that lost sight of how to convey the theme.

    Elie wants to forgive Joel's sin
    Elie wants to forgive Abby's sin
    A player wants to forgive Joel's sin
    Feeling that the player wants to forgive Abby's sin (high difficulty).

    Everything is off.
    Personally, I think that players cannot be immersed in the last Erie's disappointment unless everything is tied with equality.
    Even if Ellie's disappointment is shown from a bird's-eye view, I can't feel the weight of Joel's death, and above all I can't feel the weight of the gameplay.

    Do you want to draw opposite ego?
    Do you want to draw Ellie's forgiveness and liberation?
    After all, it's just an unpleasant game experience

    TLOU1 Suspension bridge through action game The player's emotions that increase effectively cause a chemical reaction with a scenario that draws two distorted love

    TLOU2 wanted the player to build a complicity relationship with the character through an action game, and to create an immersive feeling in a scenario that makes you feel guilty and disappointed, but the script is too bad and it is not functioning.
    I think what Neil tried to do was an experimental and interesting idea. If all went well, I think it was a great gaming experience. However, the result was the worst game.

    He completely betrayed his fans by immersing himself in the best gaming experience of the previous game.
    It's just unpleasant and bad taste, and what remains after clearing is the feeling of emptiness and fatigue.

    I used the previous work as a tool to evoke this **** feeling. And I don't feel the need at all. Nothing is convincing.

    You don't have to create what your fans want.
    However, it is unforgivable to insult the fans who supported you and the story of Joel and Erie from the bottom of your life.

    The volume and making of the gameplay part is wonderful, and it can be said that it is an orthodox evolution of the previous work.
    That's not enough.
    It's painful just to imagine playing the second lap because you're forced to play a game that violently tells a story or violates player feelings. This is an incredibly horrifying flaw in the game.

    Good gameplay, yet an horrendous story, the worst narrative I've ever seen and a terrible ending. There could've been so many things ND should've done rather than this game.

    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]
