    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Although the game did feature Joel’s death in the most dishonorable way possible, it fueled the rest of the game for greatness (if that makes sense). What I mean is: Joel’s death was a tragic event in the story, but it didn’t ruin the whole game. It was delivered amazingly and really had a lot of suspense leading up to it. Now the gameplay/graphic design was outstanding, there weren’t a lot of frame-drops, and the combat was energizing and exciting. Whether you were fighting someone with a bow, a sledgehammer, or even an attack dog, the game delivered gracefully. I do understand the idea of the game being pandered to an “SJW,” kind of audience, but it wasn’t really forced into my face like a lot of other reviewers. In the end I’ve really enjoyed this game, and would play it again in a heartbeat. 100 (btw I’m not some bigwig who got the game early, I got it the same time it came out.)… Expand

    Games are so subjective. I love this, but others won’t. You have to play it for yourself. For what it’s worth, the story is a tough watch, but then it’s not meant to be comfortable. I enjoy the game play and the environment is amazing. I can’t fault this game.

This one added a few things, like crouching and obviously the environments are beautiful, they dared to have a lesbian protagonist and let you play with a villain...

    So as a mainly social gamer I don’t have the time to play a million games and the majority of the time I definitely don’t complete the game. But I played this through and finished it. So I guess that sums up how I feel about this and pretty much any Naughty Dog production. Well done!! Again

    The OMG, WTF moments continue and they're great! Just like The Walking Dead, there's some deaths that are shocking and sad, but that's the story and I personally liked it.

Impossível um game que possui ao menos 26h de gameplay ser totalmente escrachado antes mesmo de um dia passado do lançamento. Iniciei a história e - ao menos até onde pude ver - essa continua sendo uma produção a nível da Naughty Dog, o que já diz bastante por si - é uma pena que gamers de outras plataformas não possam compartilhar dessa experiência. Espero que a repercussão dessas opiniões aqui não impeça alguém de comprar o produto e que - assim como eu - consiga aproveitar o que de bom vendo sendo preparado por uma empresa competente a pelo menos 7 anos.… Expand

    Naughty Dog again proves that it can rise to expectations. With The Last of Us Part II, the studio maintains its prestigious status with a continuation that keeps intact the shades of the original, although it fails to completely overcome it. In parallel, it attempts to resolve a multi-faceted conflict that is impossible to cut, judge, or limit to spectrums as simple as "good" or "evil."Naughty Dog again proves that it can rise to expectations.

In parallel, it attempts to resolve a multi-faceted conflict that is impossible to cut, judge, or limit to spectrums as simple as "good" or "evil." Although character characterization is commendable, sometimes they feel without growth since they make the same mistakes over and over again. The outcome is grimly satisfying (in a sick and odd sense). The result is a visceral delivery supported by its combat, stealth, and world-building. Part II reaffirms how far the medium has come and the impressive craftsmanship behind its creation.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Forgive me if this review is hard to understand. I'm not the best at writing. This is my personal take on the ending and why I believe the ending was fantastic. Ellie gained her humanity by not killing abby. She didn't kill someone out of revenge. It took ellie hitting rock bottom to realize that this viscous cycle of hatred just needed to end. It was over. Killing abby wouldn't bring joel back.


    Abby and ellie go through the same experiences, just at different times and they handled the situations differently. Abby got her revenge in a brutal way.... but she still felt empty. Killing joel wasn't the solution she thought it would be so ultimately she decides to go back and help Lev and Yara (the queen) as a desperate attempt at some kind of personal redemption. Also, her nightmares about the hospital continue after killing joel.... implying that getting revenge truly did not give her the closure she thought it would. Ellie murdering abby when she's just trying to take care of lev at this point (which is similar to joel taking care of ellie) would have taken everything from her. She would have lost every part of herself that made her human. She would have lost herself beyond redemption. She saw a chance to keep a part of herself (her logic, common sense, human decency, hope, humanity) by not killing abby, and she took it. She realized that the cycle had done nothing but cause death and loss to both her and abby. Abby lost mel, Owen, Nora, and Alice. Ellie lost joel, jj, jesse, and dina. And in a way, abby and ellie lost a part of themselves. Abby lost basically all of her humanity by actually taking revenge. Ellie lost a bit of her humanity and her common sense. She abandoned something she wanted more than anything (a happy family) just to continue the rage cycle. However, she didn't do the same thing they did, which gave her hope and humanity. She didnt continue the viscous cycle. She became better than abby and the other WLFs. She broke the hateful cycle. She made a choice to save what little bit of herself she could. In that moment, it wasn't a game about loss anymore. It was a game about hope and human decency.    … Expand

    Ellie is still the amazing character from the first game that we all remember and love. And with everything that happens in this game, you feel for her and understand her choices. You may not agree with them all the time, but you can understand them.
    Joel has a key part throughout the entire piece. The scenes with this character are the most heartbraking and heartfelt in the game.
    Open mindedness is the key to this game. You just have to experience the whole thing to judge the game. In the end, you definitely won't regret it.    … Expand

    I have played the first The last of Us on PS3 and I wanted to replay it on PS4 before Playing Part 2, I loved the first TLOU and the DLC left behind is a short but meaningful story, I finished my second playthrough of the first game the day before i started playing part 2 and I was glad I did that.

Part 2 is exactly that, a continuation of the first game but it has better but familiar gameplay and you feel at home with controls. Many dialogues can be missed if you haven't played the first like when Ellie tells that they once met a guy called Bill who used to plant bombs all over his town or when she was captured by people who used to eat their victims. Great acting and the story isn't obvious, never felt to know how it would go on. The game makes you feel many emotions and makes you even stop playing it because you don't want carry on, you don't agree with what is happening but this is the beauty of this game, within hours or minutes it makes you feel opposite emotions and makes you hate yourself for hating certain characters only because you didn't agree with them because of the lack of understanding and knowledge of their background and motivations. I loved the story but what I loved most was that this game brought up so many emotions, not all positives but also negatives, that i can't say many games are able to do so. Part 2 goes deeper in the story and gets better gameplay to the point that the first TLOU looks like a demo, just a taste of what ND wanted to tell and show with this games.… Expand

    Its just an interesting game on my part, it let's you know in the world we living, even heroes die, just like in game of thrones. So however painful your favourite characters killed off are, you can use that to judge a game, but it is what it is. P.S: Majority of those posting up here haven't even played a quarter of the game before the posted on here. It's just sad.

    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]
