    - Femifacistic game. Open opression of men.
    - LGBTQ propaganda.
    - Disgusting plot.
    - Step back in gameplay development.

    + Beautiful environment, my compliments for this part of developers and artisis, sry for that.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Completely undoing the brilliance of the first game in every way Possible. Rather than a revenge story for Ellie, druckmann and his team of utter **** have made this a revenge story for Abby, who is Abby you may ask, well apparently she's some superhuman badass with arms like a silver back gorilla, who managed to take down The chuck Norris of videogames Joel, also she kills Tommy and absolutely destroys Ellie too. A ridiculous origin from a last of us 1 character with the least screen time. I cannot understand how Druckmann and his sheep completely balled this up. Worst sequel to a game period… Expand

    Game looks amazing, quality is fantastic (no bugs or glitches or something) but that´s are the only things the game has to offer for you if you enjoyed the last of us story.

    Story 3/10 - None lovable characters.
    Game-play - 5/10 Story killed the game-played for me.
    Graphics - 10/10 beautiful scenes.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The story is awful, so is the decision to sacrifice the relation between Joel and Ellie to establish Ellie as a strong woman, therefore butchering what elevated the first part to its success,
    just to seamlessly move on to playing as his murder. The visuals were impressive, but the gameplay was lacking. The first part was a simple game with a great story, this one lacks the story.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is nowhere near deserving of anything above 5. I’ve chosen 3 because I think its bastardizes the series but would probably more aptly give it a 3.5, for two reasons:
    The game is a technical marvel and graphically is very impressive, the best ND looking game to date and one of the best looking games of this gen. The game also includes unlockable flashbacks with Joel and Ellie and these are what really give the extra .5 I would realistically give and also why the game is only a 3.5. If the whole game had more of Joel or Elie or introduced new characters that had such a deep and well thought out relationship as Joel or Ellie, Part 2 would’ve been fantastic. Unfortunately, beating Joel with a golf club 2 hours in dashes this. As soon as we take control of Abby, the one who murders Joel, the story becomes confusing and jumbled, with multiple flashbacks and jumpcuts and is very hard to follow. Abby herself is unlikeable and very hard to find any sympathy for. The other characters are forgettable and have no defining characteristics that make you want to find out more about them, apart from Dina, who makes sense because she’s Ellies partner.
    Ellie herself is less likeable, constantly hating on Joel and the majority of males to be honest, she’s simply an **** even to Dina but I immensly enjoyed the interactions she had with Dina and the small respite in the game with her and Dina living in the farmhouse was really cute and did go someway into exploring Ellie’s response to intimacy and romance.
    The ending, the point I will end this review on, is atrocious. The whole game is revolved around revenge, of course. Ellie tracks down Abby after getting seperated from her earier in the game, leaving Dina and Dina’s baby behind (obviously, not their baby, Dina was impregnated by another character earlier but then they broke up). Abby has been tortured and beat and is essentially being crucified, on death’s door. Ellie frees her and they both go to a nearby dock, to escape via boat. Ellie then threatens to kill Lev, a boy Abby has been travelling with, if Abby doesn’t fight her. This devolves into a fist fight (in a world where guns exist and Ellie actually has a few on her person and in a world where survival of the fittest dominates), where Ellie gets the upperhand but then let’s Abby leave with Lev, despite murdering her friends and 100’s of others and the whole point of tracking Abby was revenge for Joel. Ellie then comes back to the farmhouse to find Dina and the baby gone and tries to play guitar, only to find she can’t as she lost two fingers in the fight with Abby. One more cutscene plays, where Ellie says in a flashback at Jackson, the starting area, she can’t forgive Joel for saving her at the hospital, credits.
    Let’s hope and pray TLOU3 is never made or if it is, with Druckmann far away as possible. If he and the other management who made devs work 100+ hour weeks for this game leave, I wish ND the best on their next game, otherwise, people on the bottom of the ladder, get the hell out and don’t look back.    … Expand

    The game is far to long and story telling is all over the place trying to force you to feel things for characters you dislike and have no interest in the game is a convoluted mess which is a shame cause it’s a beautiful game to look at.

    Игра определенно имеет план развития, но она совершенно не мешает погружаться в сюжет и проникаться прописанными персонажами.

    This 2 points are for graphics and gameplay, and nothing else. They completely dismissed the lovable relationship between Ellie and Joel, and replaced it with awful SJW stories, nobody in their right mind simpatizes with Abby and nobody cares about the transgender character in this game. This also proves that you can NEVER trust any journalists review, Im looking at you IGN.

    This game is nothing like the original and I do not appreciate what Nate Druckman has done to it. The fact the games industry allowed anyone to publish good reviews of this game is exemplary of the poor ethics in games journalism, and the opportunism displayed by Naughty Dog. Not worth the time to even watch, let alone spend money on.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Neil Druckmann, that’s you game and of course you can destroy any characters as you wish. It’s also our game, but how bad you are and you’ve destroying our hopes, dreams and 6 years’ waiting. Yes, you are killing people’s hope. And even worse you let us to play the **** who killed our hero. Who the hell is Abby and who cares? And no one will even care about Owen and his girlfriend have been killed, no one at all! What’s wrong with you! And how could you do this to us? Disappointed.… Expand

    This is a pile of dog **** Coming from a hardcore fan that bought the PS4 just to play part 1 and had Part 2 on pre-order for the past 2 years. The story is garbage, the main cast is ruined and Abby is the character nobody wanted or needed. Never buying a Woke Naughty Dog game again. F* you naughty for ruining my favourite game.

    In certain parts, the game is a masterpiece, but in history context, I think that Abby's character was played too much instead of watched. From the middle to the end, the history loses itself, but it's still a good game, I think that the negative reviews are a little exaggerated... but what can I do about it!?

    A great deception. Although I liked the first game but it was not perfect, this new game only improves the graphics and fails in the rest. An ilogical storya and repetitive gameplay.
    Graphics: 9/10

    Story: 0/10

    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]
