    Sony's GK will ruin our games, they can give Zedal 0 point, they can give halo 0 point, and they can give TLOU2 10 point. If you click into those account who give TLOU2 10 point, you will find that they only have 1 reivew. I'm here to against them, to protect our games.

    Wasting characters, false trailer, and ruined one of the best game series. My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined.

    I finished the couple hours ago.
    GOOD:
    GRAPHICS, it's a triple A game in 2020 of course it's looks beautiful. LEVEL DESIGN, the world is designed well, it allows a lot of exploration and it is always rewarded by getting new weapons, equipment or resources. SOUND, the sound is amazing. Shooting, punching explosions and other stuff sound really good. DIFFICULTY, the difficulty    I finished the couple hours ago.

    SOUND, the sound is amazing. Shooting, punching explosions and other stuff sound really good.
    DIFFICULTY, the difficulty customisation is perfect, you are able to adjust the main characters, the enemies, the environment, resources and so on.
    FLASHBACKS, those were good and I feel the game should just start with them and the story in them was actually well written and told.

    BAD:
    GAMEPLAY: it's just the same as 7 years ago, no improvements but also hasn't got worse, but yeah I think some new features would have helped the gameplay. It becomes tedious after 10-15 hours.
    LENGTH: the game is way too long, 25-30 hours for this story is ridiculous, 15-20 hours would have been enough.
    ACCESSIBILITY OPTIONS: yeah most of the things in there are useful options that can help people, however there are option that make no sense and seem to be put in for the journalists that review the game. There is an option that makes you invisible when prone, another option lets you stay under water without drowning, you can turn weapon sway off which makes certain upgrades useless and makes you feel like you are playing a trained soldier rather than a teenage girl.
    BUGS, for a triple A game, there are so many bugs, I had to reload entire levels or restart the game on several occasion because the game was soft locked and I couldn't go on because a NPC didn't move to a certain spot.

    WARNING SPOILERS
    STORY, the story is complete trash. I don't know who the people are that believe this story is well written or well-told.
    CHARACTERS: The characters are introduced by name, like Jesse, Dina and so on, there is often no background to them, no story on how they met or how they ended up where they are. Every character that dies in this game dies after couple of scenes and isn't mentioned anymore people like JESSE and MANNY who are obviously important to the story, they die right in front of Ellie and Abby and they aren't mentioned after all, not a single word. Character development is awful, everybody but YARA and LEV are replaceable and unlikeable. YARA and LEV's story is nice and has some emotional and deep scene throughout their missions, especially the island scenes.
    STORY ORDER, the order how the story is told feels backwards, Ellie kills these people like Danny, Jordan, Nora or whatever the hospital girl is called, then 7-10 hours later they are introduced when the player takes control over Abby. When people found out Danny is dead, they were mad and sad, as player I didn't care I knew nothing about that guy there was no connection. The order would be a lot better if the player would play Abby and Ellie each day, starting with Abby then Ellie "chasing" after her, so with Abby's missions we would get to know the "villains" we kill playing Ellie, but yeah none of this happens. Killing any of Abby's friends felt like killing any other enemy in the game, just another faceless character.
    PURPOSE, the whole story is about revenge constantly showing the player revenge is bad, it is a cheap way of story making and it showed in the writing.
    I have nothing against Joel being killed I feel it had to happen his actions needed consequences but it was badly done as Joel had 3 scenes before being killed. I have nothing against Naughty Dog's approach of making female lesbian characters and Abby's design, I see the media using this a reason why people don't like this game but it isn't.
    The reason why people don't like this game is because it isn't made for gamers but for the journalist and reviewers. Accessibility options killing off the entire gameplay and the whole LGBT thing they are trying to do just shows me they are trying to please "video game" journalists.

    In the end the game itself wasn't terrible as many people want to make it sound but it was certainly wasn't good either.

    So disappointing. First game had an incredibly deep story line that had me hooked the whole way. This one was shallow, guided by the principal of "ram my wokeness down your throat". Nothing pulls you out of the immersion of a game like that does.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The complete disrespect and insulting ways that Naughty Dog went with this sequel is beyond any redemption. What they did to Joel is DISGUSTING. The writing is so bad, that I actually had to pause multiple times because I was so frustrated. The whole game is pointless because Ellie doesn't even get her revenge. It's a slap to the face of the fans that have been waiting SEVEN YEARS and it makes me sick. The visuals and gameplay are great. That's about it. Anyone with a brain will not enjoy this game. Shame on you Naughty Dog.like this **** game.… Expand

    Forced the player into a disliked character, and gave me the role for more than half of the game time, and the preview also gave me fraud. Sony Congratulations, you have a traitor. Microsoft said it is super cool.Thank you naughty dog for feeding us a poop.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't know where i should start:
    -The first game was awesome for it's time , a nice father-daughter story in the middle of an apocalypse trying yo survive and make allies. Even the Prequel DLC had a good story too, everyone loved those campaigns still to this day.

    So... what's the problem with this "sequel" ?
    The first minutes are good and shows us how the protagonists re living after the first game but in a couple of hours.... boom
    They kill the most beloved character of the franchise, because of a "girl"? Who wanted revenge against him for killing his father in the first game.

    So the game make us want to take revenge against that girl and his crew and we do.
    We kill almost every friend of her as she kills some of out allies too, and in the end...
    WE FORGIVE HER ??!!!
    I don't know who exactly was the dumbass who write this ending (actually i think we all do) but .You makes take revenge against all of her friends just to make us forgive Her for killing Ellie's father figure ?
    That's the most stupid plot i've ever seen .
    If you're gonna make a revenge story then we should, idk....
    ACTUALLY TAKE REVENGE

    Also , the journalists try to defend this game with one single argument: " If you don't like the game then you are all homophobic "
    Seriously People ?
    The game has GOOD graphics and GOOD music.
    But come on , The Story ending it's Stupid

    Take as Example for a Revenge story the Destiny 2 Forsaken plot:
    They kill a beloved friend of ours and we swear to take revenge with our hands. So we go and kill The Barons( The ones who helped the antagonist to kill that friend ) , then in the end our character and an ally are in front of him about to kill him , but he asks
    " The light between light and dark is so thin, which side are you on ? "
    That makes our character doubt but we stil point at him with our gun , in the end , the screen goes black and we hear a gunshot.

    We don't know if we did kill him or our ally did, but we know he is now dead , and that gives us a relief completing our Revenge Crusade , we later have to deal with the consequences of killing him but it's still a good plot.

    I don't know why ND had to make such an bad ending. It could 've been a good game ...
    So sad ended this way

    PD : Was that s3x scene so necesary for the plot of the game ?
    So sony doesn't allow anime tiddies but allows this kind of scene ? WTF is wrong with them ?    … Expand

As a player, I've some feelings in this character, and I can't believe that naughty dog just wiped him off like that. This is just heartbroken. The mechanics, graphics, music, etc, were good in this game, and I have nothing against the politics or homosexual contents in this game. But, the story, I think they could've done a lot better.

    I played days nonstop 25~ hours and formed an opinion on this game without spoilers. And PC players who are not able to criticize and of course THINK how much time and people have been spent on this project. English is not my native language, so I can say something incorrectly.

    1. Story continues the first part and is very connected with it. Ellie is now a girl and she has a new partner, Dina.
    She is now not a kind girl, ready to help everyone. She became tougher and more careful (reminiscent of Joel from the first part). In general, she has matured and she quickly changes in the course of the plot and this "development" affects the end of the game.
    Dina is not a terrible character. She has her own character, motives. It seems there are no problems, but she does not reach the previous partner Ellie.
    There will be familiar characters, and many new ones that I did not like at all, but these are spoilers.
    I won’t talk much about the plot, the only thing I will say. He has many flaws and some things are incomprehensible to me, but he continued the story and the ending made me think about some things for a long time
    2. Gameplay is as excellent as in the previous part. Shooting is even more awesome, and sounds .. I recommend everyone to play with headphones, which would plunge even more into this atmosphere
    The animations are beautiful. The smallest details in the spirit of Red Dead Redemption 2. That's all I really liked and I'm very pleased with the gameplay.
    3.I live in a country in which same-sex relationships are prohibited and people are greatly humiliated for that. But I am not against it. Anita Sargsyan helped Neil Drakman, which makes me unhappy. But what is harmless here.
    The game gave me almost always positive emotions. So despite the unfair assessment of both users and critics, I put 8 points    … Expand

    A huge disappointment. I was so hyped for this game, but unfortunately, it never met my expectations, or even got close to it tbh.

There were way betterA huge disappointment. I was so hyped for this game, but unfortunately, it never met my expectations, or even got close to it tbh. Problems like the unaceptable plotholes and completely unbelievable decisions and actions made by characters throughout the game just so the writers could force the story they created forward was one of my biggest problems with this game. There were way better ways to send the message that you wanted to send, but for some reason, after 7 years of development, this was the best you came up with. ND showed a complete lack of respect for our beloved characters. They also disrespected the fans with false expectations and misleading and fake marketing strategies, making us think the game is something that it really isn't. They thought that making us play half of the game on a side-quest just to make us like and care for unlikeable and boring characters was a good idea. Let me tell you, I hated every second. No matter how much you try to make said characters look like good people, they ain't. The ending of the game also feels very unsatisfying, not only for the choices the characters make, but also because the entire message you tried to send was very contradictory when you look at the end each character had.

    Not all about this game is bad tho. Just like in the first game, the music is insanely good and fitting. The graphics are also insane, next gen stuff. Animations, acting (for what the writers intended), the overall art-side of the game is really good, it really brings the entire TLOU universe to life, even more than it did in the first game. There are also very enjoyable moments every now and then, mostly in the first half of the game, which makes you wonder what this game could've been if the writers actually cared.

    Overall, I rate this game a 6/10. What made TLOU a great game, my favorite game of all time, was its story, and this game doesn't even come close to it. Production wise, this game really good, which makes it even more sad for me, because this could've been such an incredible experience, but, at the end of the day. it was just so unsatisfying.    … Expand

Without spoiling anything (as if that’s possible anymore) this new sequel is nothing more than a grotesque politically driven satire of the current liberal world view. A forced mean spirited shock drama influenced by the worst of the SJW agenda. Don’t let the gleaming media “critic” scores fool you this games average is grossly inflated.… Expand

    The game itself looks really nice however as a fan of the first game I feel that the story of this game dose not come close to part 1 , there is no bond with the new characters and no loyalty to the old ones, it's a revenge plot where you fail at getting revenge

    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]
