    Very bad game ! I don't want to play Ellie. It's ruin everything and I am extremely disappointed. "The last of us" is dead for me. Maybe I will sell my PS4 too and never return to Playstation.

    100% the greatest game story and character development of all time,
    Remember folks,
    Revenge is like shooting yourself in the head and expecting the other person to die

    Let's sum up, this ******* game should not be named TLOU2. If it wasn't named TLOU2, was named Mushroom Monster Adventure and change characters' name and face. I will give this game about 6 points. Because the plot is suck, playing this games' feeling would be like forcibly eat the **** 8 hrs by Neil's hands.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. O jogo tecnicamente é muito bom: gráficos absurdos, jogabilidade muito boa, mapa bem amplo para exploração e uma grande variedade de armas. Mas o jogo peca no enredo, como a morte do Joel que na minha opinião foi zuada e prematura e o final que deveria ter sido de outra maneira ou a ND deveria pelo menos ter dado a opção de se vinga. Tirando esses pequenos problemas o jogo é incrível! Expand

    They had a great thing going on with the first game. However dropped the ball with this one. I feel like game developers are trying so hard to stand out, that they lose track of what's most important. A few choices in the game made by the developers were just wrong. It's like they just gave the big finger to the fans of the game. Something I can't call myself anymore.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Generic revenge plot, boring story about how revenge is bad. The first last of us had wrapped itself up beautifully then this garbage came out with hideous narrative (except for the flashbacks). Storyline is set in a way that you end up not caring about the major characters. Expand

    This game has an amazing atmosphere, incredible graphics, great sound cues, and an extremely emotional soundtrack. However, it falls short on the story, as many have stated. The story begins by killing Joel, a beloved character from the first game, in a incomprehensible way.

However, it falls short on the story, as many have stated. The story begins by killing Joel, a beloved character from the first game, in a incomprehensible way. Joel is taken out of his character by faithfully trusting a group of strangers, which is uncharacteristic of Joel. This whole seems too forced and abrupt, for a character such as Joel. You then play as Ellie and are forced to commit heinous acts, such as torturing people, killing dogs, and even a pregnant woman. Whereas, the game forces you to play Abby in such a way where you are helping people, playing with dogs, and saving children to attempt to have the player sympathize with Abby. Additionally we learn her motivation for killing Joel, which Frankly, is not enough to have us sympathize with her. Ellie, regrets the horrible things she did as she: had PTSD and visible anguish for both, torturing and murdering a pregnant woman; while Abby took pleasure in torturing Joel, despite him saving her life, and in the idea of killing Ellie's pregnant girlfriend. This shows how psychopathic Abby is and makes the player hate her even more. Near the end you are forced to attempt to kill Ellie as Abby, after you kill Jessie, and presumably Tommy. The narrative is both infuriating and extremely unmotivated for the player into wanting to kill Ellie. Finally, the ending is unjustified, as Ellie gets no revenge despite losing everything and rampaging through Seattle, committing several heinous crimes. Overall, terrible storytelling and an extremely unsatisfactory ending. However, the saving grace is the graphics, gameplay, voice acting and soundtrack, which is why I even rated it a four. Expand

    Don't bother with all the trolls out there. This game is another masterpiece. Gameplay is superb, storyline is really nice (a few minor problems, but show me the one franchise in all entertainment industry that doesn't have). Once again I was alternating moments of sheer tense and terror and relief and sometimes anger, and this is all this series is about.
    It's sad to see how many haters

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This franchise is all about the story. Without the story the game means nothing. This game does have great visuals and great gameplay, but the main focus needs to be the story. The story just isn’t good and it tries too hard to make you feel sorry for people that you immediately don’t want to feel sorry for. And the ending tries so hard to make you feel sad, without making any logical sense. Apparently negative reviews aren't allowed? **** off Metacritic! Expand

    muitos reclamam do joel ter atravessado os EUA matando todo mundo no primeiro tlou, entretanto acabou morto no início do 2 de uma trágica. é necessário lembrar que toda a convivência com a ellie transformou o próprio joel, fazendo com que sentisse a sensação de estar junto a sarah novamente, deixando-o assim mais humano, mais compreensível.

    I don't have much to say about this *production* itself, cause I did not reached the conclusion that it satisfies my minimum condition to call it as a *game*; COMMUNICATION.

    Yup, that is my pathetic conclusion after I got to finish this *production* with tens of hours of my time and money. Where is all of the communication what the creators must do? At least, any of the distributor,

    At least, any of the distributor, developers, and directors should have provided enough information to the potential customers of this game, BEFORE the customers spend their valuable money and time to this *production*, but they did not and completely deceived all. And then? Nothing but self-complacence.

    Come on, they should have and could have, but did not ANYTHING. Ruined not only the *production* itself, but also the trust of the customers. What else I can say more?

I will cut ties with anyone who thinks this story is good, or it has good characters. Because I don’t like getting surrounded by idiots, as part of LGBTA it’s also offensive. Can media stop portraying lesbians as home-wreckers and trans people as angry ugly **** Revenge is bad narrative is getting old and especially in this case its plain dumb. Expand

    i loved the first game and thought it wrapped things up perfectly. When i heard a sequel was in the works I had my doubts but was open to experiencing a continuation or even a new adventure.

    However as familiar as the atmosphere was with its highlights, it failed to deliver an emotional immersion as the first one had. It felt empty.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is my first review ever. I normally don't have time to review games. BUT this game is one of the worst games I have played. The storyline is the issue, a BIG issue. I mean I loved The Last of Us 1. Everything about that game was 10 out of 10. I brought the $200.00 Ellie Collector’s edition, that's how much of a fanboy I am. WASTE of money. No one cares about ABBY! How do you kill Joel in like under an hour into a 25-hour game? I mean if he's going to die, have him go out much better than he did in this trash of a game. When you play as Abby, it's so long and pointless. There's one part of Abby's story where she wants to save some scar person so she goes ALL the way back to the hospital making it so pointlessly boring. They could have added more with Ellie and Joel, but nope lest just play as Abby because people should care about ABBY. WOW, 7 years wait for crap! And it is Crap! It's a WOKE game hardcore. I didn't even finish the game because I'm so bored with Abby's storyline. Killing one of the most beloved people in the game so early and the way he went out, total dumpster fire of a game. I hope people save their $60 and when it goes on sale, Still don't buy it. Such as massive flop! Expand

    3 попадая в мир этой игры ты не чувствуешь погружения , все отдает фальшем , в отличии от первой части . Персонажи не мотивированы , ведут себя глубо , в игре нет героя , когда я играл за Эбби , мне было очень противно и мерзко и это нельзя было пропустить , я не могу поверить что эти игры ( 1 и 2 часть) создавались одной студией , все просто потеряно и я больше не хочу продолжения .

    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]
