    **** game. Plot is all ocer the place and characters dont act like they are suppose to act. Way too many subvert expectations moments during the game and also too many jump scares or close call situations.

    At first I thought it was the coolest game I'd ever played but then the story got worse and worse, and the ending was extremely bland, stupid and with a terrible aftertaste. Not buying the next Naughty Dog game, even if it looks good. 1 point for the extreme effort that went into the game. -10 for the story and the smug, elitist and pretentious stance some developers took.

    Great Gameplay and visuals, but i want an interesting story and i get a poor characters with a poor plot.
    I prefer to replay tlou1 rather than this.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. From a technical point of view, a great game. Graphics, detail, music, everything is on top. The developers did an amazing job. They put their heart and soul into the game to make it a masterpiece.
    But one man with his own ideology just killed all the efforts of the Naughty dog team. The game's plot is absurd. Throughout the game, we try to impose the ideas and motives of other people's characters for us. They try to justify their actions.
    And in the middle of the current game, I couldn't bring myself to play for a hostile character who killed one main character and kills the second.

    I'm a fan of the first part of the game. The worst thing is that this main person brazenly lied to the fans. The game trailers don't match the game itself. We were tricked from the very beginning to buy the game. Because the trailers promised us a continuation of the story of Ellie and Joel. But there is nothing of this in the game. I spent my money because of Neil Druckman's blatant lies.

    I give the game 1 point. Only because of the love and respect for the Naughty Dog team.    … Expand

    Не смог переварить геймплей более 3 часов. Сюжет и наигранность персонажей достойны номинации на малину.

    If played as a stand-alone, one can always pretend to get to know the “new” characters Joel, Tommy, Elly, then, I would give the the game a 6. It has a complex narrative, albeit some and some dumb ass decisions by some characters, but what the heck, maybe that is what they are.

    When played as a sequel, you can hardly recognise the choices and careless attitude shown by Joel and by Tommy. Elly may have change, she was just a child in LoU-1. Perplex by the lack of survival instinct and destructive life choices, OK, maybe. But it feels like one of those films where you just cry watching ”for crying out loud, are you mental?”. Stupidity forced on you (decided for you) by the Naughty Dog script, that is not a game you enjoy playing.

    Action is repetitive, most combat goes about the same way. The undestructive knife was not very fun, why bother with other weapons.
    Amazing graphics and facial expressions.

    All in all / a boring game to play that forces you to take decisions that feel stupid, instead of the brilliant morally complex decisions from LoU 1.

    The last of us part 2 is like having the most beautiful girl in the world only for her to have a 0/10 personality. Just because it looks good doesn't mean it is good, like a reviewer stated it's a story about right and wrong written by someone who thinks they're always right.

    Amazing gameplay let down by a poorly written storyline with plot holes.

    Since this is a single player game, story is quite important so without it, it's a mess

    Stupid story line. Character build is poor at best. And the mechanics are not smooth, it's like a wanna be TR but not as believable. I gave a 1 because the graphics were pretty good. But very unsatisfied with the game as a whole.

    La historia tiene problemas muy graves nunca se toma el tema de la cura no exploramos nada significante sobre eso y la única vez que el tema es expuesto es en cartas, audios y nunca hay algo concreto.
    Una de las incongruencia muy grandes es porque Joel ayuda Abby si nunca Joel es de ayudar a otras

    personas en el primer juego nos recalcan que Joel tiene una mentalidad fría, frívola y calculadora que piensa muy bien las cosas y no hace nada si no tiene un propósito para el o para elli y ahora se justifican en decir que los personajes maduraron; eso es una forma estúpida de argumentar que los personajes maduren.
    De que sirve el tema de la venganza si en el juego te dedicas a matar a lo que se te ponga en frente osea una cosa está justificada y la otra no; la venganza se podría haber hecho diferente de que elli aprendiera porque es mala venganza un ejemplo:
    Como cuando al final del juego Abby ayuda a un niño a bajar de un poste que elli al matar a abby viera el caos que a causado las consecuencias de lo que ha hecho de que sirve ir a matar a abby de nada ella mato a un hombre que era como tú padre que te cuido mato a un amigo tuyo (aunque su muerte me valió queso) hay veces contadas que en este juego un personaje me intereso la única vez que siente dentro del personaje fue cuando elli intento tocar la guitarra con los dedos cortados porque en ese momento elli se da cuenta que perdió su humanidad que se ha vuelto salvaje y que nada es igual    … Expand

    but this garbage of a sequel? Jesus. They didn't even take account the experience of the characters in the 1st game. Minor spoiler:
    Joel spent 20 years in that Apocalypse and its pretty much all thrown to pieces
    The story writing is horrible. Ellie didn't kill abby because of her she wants to retain her little bit of humanity in? bullsh!t why did she kill strangers who are unrelated to abby then and felt nothing about it but when they confront she suddenly changed her mind? "oh its because ellie saw that child and she got reminded of joel" that's pretty much **** **** m8. abby didn't even know that child and she killed her former friends in the WFL to save that girl who she had no remorse in killing in. there are lots i can point out but jesus chirs,t neil **** 7 years of writing for this? why didn't you re-hire bruce straley so he guide your stupid decisions making this game.    … Expand

    Soo, I love the Graphics, mechanıcs and all of that, but not the story line. This game was had some much potentıal. They really risked the game, even we get a equal story to the The Last Of Us 1, we love it either. But no. Make the Joel dumb for his Dead. 25 years of pure apocalyptic survive experiance at the first game he was like, '' I trust nobody,being extra leery'' In the Part II like, '' Hello my name is Joel Miller and this is Tommy Miller, we come here from Jackson''. And then Like '' Oh you have friends in a place, nevermind I don't have experiance let's go'' And instantly dies. We don't care about Joel died. I already waited lıke few years thinking '' Probably they are going to kill Joel'' but we care about how he died. Like dumb, 15 years old boy won't do that and Joel like Nevermind let's go! He would be killed next to Ellie because of saving her.Another thing Neil showed us Joel in State Of Play first, I was like Let's go! Joel is here. And he died in first hour, Jessie says Joel's exactly same lines like Bruh. Waited 7 years to play this game and they created a Netflix story line. Like showed a muscular woman, girlfriends you showed Okay! I do not want more but no in 2013 Netflix was not that popular so we get a masterpiece story, now 2020 Netflix storyline. What about Abby huh? They did not show her. I was playing, 20 minutes later some woman showed up like Hello. We played she like more than Ellie. When the half of the game showed up like you are going to play 10 hours of Abby Really. And then play 30 minutes of Ellie and Abby again REALLY. They showed a npc dog, we forced to kill the dog 5 hours later We see the past of the dog, I really do not care! Joel should see some Sarah flashbacks. They forced to hate Joel and Ellie. But no, not Joel.This game had soo much potential... They ruined everything.And they like we did not expect that much hate Really.At the First game killed that doctor with flamethrower, I did not think a second. They forced to kill him and then, Joel be like. '' Oh, I killed a man, hope they don't have daughters or something.'' They forced something, we all did. Ellie killed the pregnant woman they don't give us a change ıt was cinametic and then they expected Hate Ellie look what she done. Oh look Joel he killed his father what would you do? Hate Joel bruh. They tried this in Uncharted 4 to Sam like he showed up like nothing and let's go he is my brother where he been for 4 games, but they ruined in The Last Of Us Part II . Second game that I was hyped after God Of War. God Of War was a masterpiece but not this one. Joel said Literally in The game '' See, There was a sequal, Wasn't as good.'' Good old tricky Joel. The second director said we open the gap for The Last Of Us Part III, please don't do that just don't ruin anymore. Naught Dog was a hero all his games was unique, absolutely amazing but not this one. One more, The Walking Dead Season 1. Joel was Lee, Ellie was clementine. Lee died, Joel died. Telltale make a incredible storyline even the Season 4, they don't created a Netflix story they created a masterpiece. No more things to say.

    Dize a lenda que sempre cag@m no 2. Eu não acreditava até conhecer TLoU2. Literalmente desrespeitaram os fãs do primeiro jogo. Acabaram com o jogo. Não adianta mudar a forma como mudam as notas. Ficou claro que o público odiou e não dá para confiar nesse sistema. Vou fingir que esse jogo nunca existiu.

    A cinematic story-driven game that is designed to leave the player feeling absolutely regretful they paid for this experience. It was a chor to complete. Abandons complete everything from the first game.

    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]
