    Gameplay and the technical aspects of the game is alright. The story sucks. Unsatisfying. Distasteful. The story could've went many different directions, instead they want us to spend 5 hours with a character we dont give a **** about. Why? Because she has her "reasons". She has a story too. I dont give a ####.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The visuals are incredible, the best I've seen on PS4. Solid 10/10
    The gameplay is solid, but there's nothing new since the first one.
    HOWEVER. The story is so poorly written that none of that matters. They are trying to deliver the message that the violence is bad... like seriously?
    Ellie never stops making stupid decisions.
    Abby is not likable at all. How we are supposed to like her after that scene from the beginning? And we have to play HALF of the game as the girl who killed Joel with a Golfclub like a pig.
    "Oh, look, my dad used to save wild animals and now is dead and that's why I go crazy with golfclubs"

    And the end is pure garbage. GOT final type of garbage. All the game for no payoff. Both walk away with all their respective friends dead.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It seems that there is a tendency to derail a work that has reached a peak of acceptance superior to other works.
    Stephen King is sometimes known to write excellent horror and mystery novels with bad or plain soft endings. Some TV series have been known to have won praise for its storytelling and realization, but with bad or sometimes silly endings, such as The Sopranos, HIMYM, Game of Thrones… Lately some Movies have been stained with the political agenda of Genre and LGBT propaganda...Toxic Feminism and useless political views. Examples abound.

    Now, it is the turn of what it could be the greatest videogame in its generation. But that isn.t accomplished on the second part of the story. The first one excels, but this second one...it is an absolute disrespect towards the 1st game.
    The story and the characters are so horribly written. The only thing that's truly great about this game are the graphics. And that's it. The quality of the story rivals the story of Star Wars VIII: The last jedi. And we are talking about a franchise-murderer movie.

    Score: 1/10
    - If you're looking for a great story, AVOID this game.
    - If you're a fan of the story and characters of the 1st tlou, AVOID this game.
    - If you don't like it when someone spits in your (or Joel's) face, AVOID this game.
    - If you don't care about the franchise and the future of gaming at all and all you seek are the
    graphics, buy this game.    … Expand

The gameplay itself is very nice, the areas you are left to explore are beautifully created and the suspense you feel during the playthrough navigating through the post apocalyptic world are even better then the first imo. Some people complain about the abundance of resources but I never thought of this as an issue since a major part of the game takes place the area is riddled with enemies, and you are tasked xploring a city with an armed forced marching around and in another half on the side of the large armed force,therefore the abundance of reaources makes sense. The dialogue between all characters was well written, especially during the flashbacks of Joel and Ellie.… Expand

    After playing this filth for over 25 hours, staying up two days in a row to beat it and losing hours of sleep over it I feel its necessary to express myself. I am beyond disappointed, angry, sad, sick, etc. I feel betrayed. I am left wondering why and how naughty dog thought this was a good idea for a sequel. You spend half the game (12hr) playing as Ellie trying to hunt down the people that murder Joel just to get to the girl that actually killed him and loose the fight. However before the fight (that she Ellie lost), you are forced to see Abby's side of the story and play another 12 fu*king hours as the GIRL THAT MURDERED JOEL. After dragging myself through 12 hours of Abby gameplay and losing the fight we then return home as Ellie to give up for a "while". Then here we go again, she can't just stand giving up so we have to go all the way to fu*king California to find her AGAIN. Because apparently all the way to Seattle and back wasn't enough. 2 hours of gameplay later once we finally find her we had our final fight just to pus*y out of killing her. Because apparently after killing all her friends that helped her murder Joel and killing thousands of WLF members to get to the one person that LITERALLY bashed his brains in we needed to gain some compassion. So after Ellie returns home AGAIN, with nothing to show for her adventure other than two less fingers (Abby literally bit them off in our fight) but no by all means let her live.Then BOOM the game ends. Fu*k this game, fu*k the writers, fu*k everyone that said this game was good. They are all lying sacks of sh*t. Please for me, never EVER. Buy or play this game, just pretend it doesn't exist; for your own sake please.    … Expand

    This game mostly fails for me because it utterly betrays the character of Joel. Abby, as you see during the game, is almost bipolar with her portrayal later in the game nothing like the way she is presented during the beginning. Thus, it leaves her feeling less like a character and more like a tool inserted to make us question whether or not Joel is evil or the blurred lines of good/evil.This game mostly fails for me because it utterly betrays the character of Joel.

This wouldve worked if the writign treated Joel with more respect. The best character (other than Ellie and Joel) is Owen because he actually felt compelling and at least his character stayed consitent most of the game.… Expand

One of the greatest games, destroyed by this disgusting sequel. How could you think people would like Joel to die in such a humiliating way? How could you think people would like to be forced to play as his killer for 50% of the game? 7 years in the making for a story as inconsistent and unenjoyable as a 3rd grader’a essay. Such a disappointment... yeah, let’s go kill hundreds of people and let the person who caused the most damage escape, ITLL BE GREAT!!!… Expand

Definitely not comparable to the first last of us. It's just disappointing in so many ways, but mainly story and its characters. Characters are not likable or relatable. Since this is not a movie (although at times it feels like it due to the amount of cutscenes) it is harder to play an unlikable character that you just don't root for. All in all, it's just not worth the price or the time to play this game.… Expand

    I was so excited for this game. Waited 7 years for this game and was just utterly disappointed with how bad the game was. Don't even get the main characters anymore. Instead, we get forced to play as a character we have never heard of with no character development that makes sense.

    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]
