    Really outstanding game. It definitely has a story that’s hard to swallow, however that not to say that it is a bad written story. Actually, these characters are extremely real, sometimes it doesn’t even feel like a movie, but more like how you would imaging people interacting with each other under the difficult circumstances this world has put upon them.

Actually, these characters are extremely real, sometimes it doesn’t even feel like a movie, but more like how you would imaging people interacting with each other under the difficult circumstances this world has put upon them. I would go so far as to say that it makes you feel anxious if you really get into everything it’s said during many dialogues, and maybe that’s the reason the game has gotten a poor reception from the fans. While the first game had beautiful moments and justifies the difficult moments with the pretext of loving someone, this game makes the effort to make you feel like you are tripping over the same rock again and again. Ellie makes her decisions with a blinded view, but unlike you’d expect from most mainstream entertainment media, she does make it cool to be wrong, she is just keeps make mistake after another and that made me feel static or stagnant. Apart from that, the gameplays feel really good, haven’t found but only one bug in the hole game. Graphics look incredible. Sounds and scenery are believable. The only down side is that you spend a big amount of time playing as Abby and only at the end of the game you are able to understand why that was made like that, but during the gameplay it can get boring.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The best game I’ve ever played, however, it wasn’t the most enjoyable at first. It was only after I had finished playing through it and understood the true meanings and messages. This is a perfect sequel to the first title, but it will only seem so if you think of the events in TLOU2 as genuine and realistic outcomes following the events of the first game. What you really have to understand is that the world of TLOU isn’t solely based around Joel and Ellie. At the end of the day, everyone is trying to survive. Joel chose to put humanity at risk for the sake of saving Ellie, and, thus, is forced to face consequences in this game.… Expand

    Hands down the best game of the console-generation.
    I can't believe Naughty Dog did again!
    Both me and GF were so sad when it ended.
    Absolutely fenomenal game!! People who says otherwise haven't played the game.
    Definitely lives up to the first one.

    A stunning game that is a masterpiece in suspense, thought provoking characters and visuals. The game mechanics are vastly improved from the original game and the immersion is intense. It follows a different path to the first game which is perfect, reflecting how the real world may work in such a desperate setting.

El juego está muy bien tiene unos gráficos estupendos de los mejores que hay, un gameplay muy dinámico y divertido, unos escenarios que sí bien no son tan buenos como los del primer juego son unos escenarios bastante buenos en los que puedes aprobechar al máximo cada función que tienes, lo malo es que en la historia flaquea bastante, al principio es una historia aceptable pero cada vez se va haciendo más confusa, aburrida,y sin sentido. El final me parece lo pero ya que ellie lo deja todo para cumplir su venganza y al final no es capaz de hacerlo, no es capaz de dejar su humanidad en momentos necesarios pero en otros momentos la pierde completamente como por ejemplo cuando mata a sangre fría a la amiga de a y en el hospital y se podría decir q también que disparo a una embarazada pero ella no lo sabía per vamos que en el final si querían terminar la historia de una formaas decente ellie tendría que haber matado a abby.

    I just finished "The Last of Us Part II", right after I finished the original "The Last of Us". I have never played on consoles before, and I bought the new PS5 with the express purpose of playing these 2 games (which are PS exclusives). I had two factors playing against the games: (a) I have zero ability playing with controllers, especially in shooting games and (b) I hate horror, survival horror included. Both factors mean I should be doubly challenged in playing both games, let alone play them to completion. And still, for me both of them but more specifically "The Last of Us Part II" was an absolute masterpiece. I am still reeling from the effects of the experience. I understand why people might be upset with it. We are creatures that need to identify the us vs them, and when that line gets mixed up, we don't like it. And this game had so many mix-ups, on so many levels, it frustrated people who prefer a clean cut security on their feelings and attachments. I felt it as so human, so deep, and so full of interloped, layered messages and meanings, at the end I was left crying for *all* characters (and I never cry with games). Games like TLoU2 are truly rare accomplishments on any medium, not just videogaming. If I had to buy PS5 and not be allowed to play any other games on it other than TLoU & TLoU2, it would still be a bargain.    … Expand

El objetivo de la historia es hacer sentir mal al jugador. Por alguna razón pretende castigarlo en todo momento con las decisiones argumentales. Hasta el fin, todos los momentos clave van en contra del jugador. Especialmente para aquellos que jugaron a la primera parte. No se pone en duda la valentía de plasmar una historia diferente, atrevida y lejos del estereotipo, o de lo que el jugador pudiera esperar de antemano. Esa sorpresa es positiva y debe aplaudirse. Pero lo que destroza la historia es la voluntad continua de castigar al jugador. Tanto castigo termina volviéndose en contra del propio juego.… Expand

    When the boundaries between the art piece and that of the audience fade, raw emotions are elicited. The last of us part one, cultivated emotions wonderfully. Naughty dog has been able to improve on this in a truly substantial way. these are their characters and the stories that they're telling are beautiful

    Juegazo. Una ambientacion brutal con unos escenarios increibles y detallados con una jugabilidad buena, La historia es brutal ( no apta para todos ) ya que te pone en la piel de dos perspectivas contrarias hacia un mismo desenlace. No quiero hacer “spoilers” pero Joel.... recordar en el primer juego su apto al “salvar” a Ellie.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The last of us parte 2 è il sequel che volevo. Tralasciando la qualità della storia che ovviamente si basa su un giudizio soggettivo, anche se io l'ho apprezzata molto.
    L'unica cosa cose che non mi ha convinto per quanto riguarda la narrazione è l'escamotage narrativo utilizzato da naughty dog per rendere lo scontro finale tra abby e Ellie alla pari, ovvero quello di far rapire abby dalle serpi.
    Riguardo al gameplay possiamo dire che c'è stato un sufficente rinnovamento. Giusto quel che basta per essere soddisfatti. Credo che basti questo per renderlo uno dei migliori e più divertenti gameplay che abbia mai provato, anche grazie all'ottima IA.
    Vogliamo poi parlare del comparto tecnico?
    Qui naughty dog si è superata, anche se ovviamente non essendo un open world è più semplice realizzare delle animazioni facciali così tanto elaborate e realistiche e un mondo di gioco così bello e affascinante.
    Uno dei principali problemi che non fa secondo me raggiungere l'eccellenza a tlou 2 sono i bug. Potrebbe tranquillamente essere un caso ma devo dire che i bug, almeno nella mia run, sono stati parecchi. C'è da dire però che i bug non sono quasi mai invalidanti, anzi spesso fanno più un gioco è serio e profondo, più quando accadono dei bug risultano divertenti. Ultima cosa: credo che assegnare uno 0, un 1 o un 2 sia assolutamente scandaloso. In più le critiche riguardavano tutte la trama, ma se si giudica un gioco in modo oggettivo non si può da fan di Joel del primo capitolo essere indignati per la sua morte e assegnare uno zero, solo perché la trama vi ha fatto schifo.
    In conclusione:
    Gioco maestoso, incredibilmente avvincente, divertente, profondo.
    Contro:
    Gameplay poco rinnovato

    Naughty Dog creates stories with video games like no other studio. They proved this with Uncharted, The Last of Us Part I and now with The Last of Us Part II. This video game challenges you as a player, it causes a wide range of emotions. Naughty Dog dared to make unpopular decisions and it paid off. I never played a game like this and I look forward to Naughty Dog's future projects.

In any story-driven game the strory is quite literally 50% of the game, which makes nailing it down very, very important. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case here. There are obviously some other things that the game does right from a purely technical standpoint -- although nothing close to the technical masterpiece that is Red Dead Redemption 2 -- but also that had its downfalls in the sense that they really didn't present anything new: it was the same boring, linear game-design that the first game had but with better graphics. The sound design is great, although narrow in its scope. THe graphics are ok, especially the characters' facial animations and the character models. The art-direction is incredibly boring.… Expand

    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]
