    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The graphics and gameplay are amazing, i love the combat and overall the ame was amzaing until the end. I didnt mind playing as Abby because everytime something bad happened to her I loved it. But I cant bekeive the ending, Ellie should have won that first fight or they shouldve given us a choice, She had weapons and everything but because the writing is so bad she didnt win.The second fight was comeplete garbage she shoudlve just ended her but no, 7 years of waiting just for that man, wow. I trusted ND and kept my pre order but for them too kill Joel and not let us get justice is stupid. Scew Naughty Dog and screw Neil Druckmann.… Expand

    Terribly amateurish narrative, uninteresting main storyline, lost all the atmosphere, main motivation doesn't work.

    The Last of Us Part II is such a beautiful game. It includes unique storytelling, compelling developments and takes risks that are all worth it.

    It's a great game with a fantastic story line. Sure some parts are grindy but they absolutely nailed the atmosphere. If you liked the first game there's a good chance you'll love this game too

    The game is completely pointless. Gameplay and graphics mean nothing, such things can be enjoyed in many games. When you buy a game and even more when you buy a sequel, the story and development of the characters are the heart of the content. The 2 most loved characters, not only from this game but from this generation of games, have seen no development. At the end, there is nothing to be happy about (nor is it understandable). If you just want something new to go through just pick another game.

    P.S. Critic reviews are literal garbage, the only decent thing in this game are graphics, no masterpiece whatsoever, just expectations and hype.
    P.P.S. An update: The game should have been more about the video game part ( zombies and characters we love) not one more kids book life lesson. Repeating myself here most likely, but this is what most hate about this game.    … Expand

The fact that the entire story is contingent on retconning established lore instantly makes the story a failure.

    Other than Jesse, the game also fails to make the new characters likeable. Dina feels like she’s just there as the token lesbian partner. Abby is just an all around badly written character. Her motivations are cheap and the game’s attempt to make you sympathize with her falls flat. Lev’s character arc is a hamfisted sermon of identity politics that does not make sense in the context of the post-apocalyptic world.

    A lot of people have compared this game to The Last Jedi and Game of Thrones: Season 8 in terms of how badly they butchered their characters. While these comparisons are apt, allow me to make another. The Last of Us 2 is a marginally better version of The Order: 1886. Both have great graphics, sound effects, and music. However, they suffer from an underwhelming gameplay loop and their stories are badly written. Actually, I would argue that The Order: 1886’s story is more digestible because at least it does not retcon established characters.    … Expand

    Luckily didnt see spoilers or get influenced by other people before I played this and made up my own mind. In my opinion the games story reflects the saying "If you're going after revenge then you may start digging two graves" and it does this beautifully. Theres also a difference between playing a game yourself to the end and watching someone else playing it, you dont get as invested.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Muy bien diseñado, excelente ambientacion, gráficos y jugabilidad, pero lo mas importante fue lo que me disgusto, la historia.... Es imposible llegar a sentir empatía por abby cuando asesina al protagonista del priner juego como un perro, creo que el fan service es malo en abundancia, pero a veces es un poco necesario, como espera naughty dog que los usuarios tomemos la idea de una muerte tan miserable para joel, almenos algo que trascendiera, pero sobrevivir a todo tipo de infectados para morir de esa manera, y despues ponerte en la piel de abby solo hace rogar por un boton para suicidarse, es imposible sentir empatia con abby de la manera que esperaba neil, creo que the last of us 2 sera recordado por haber sido repudiado en la comunidad, opacando todo lo bueno que tenia para ofrecer en los demás aspectos… Expand

    The only reason this doesn't get a 0 is that the game looks beautiful and the animations are really high quality. Also, the combat is just like the 1st game. All the rest is trash.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After finshing the game yesterday i can finally write this review with a clear head.

    In Short TLOU2 is in my opinion one of the best PS4 games if not the best PS4 game of all time, the story is extrememly well written and the characters are very well grounded, the graphics are stunning and the gameplay copys a lot off the first game with added elements for example the ability to squeeze through tight gaps and enemys calling out to flank you.

    People are rating this game 0/10 after joels death. the reason for joels death makes narrative sense is as you play joel in the 1st TLOU you follow one man willing to do anything for Ellie his surrogate daughter (in a way). But as you play as Abby in TLOU2 you can see joel in a different light how he selfishly mowed down a huge majority of the Fireflys to save one girl and ruin the chance for a cure along with killing Abbys father.

    At the time where it cut to playing as Abby (The villain) i was wanting to get through it as fast as i could to get back to playing as Ellie, but whilst playing you notice there are obvious similarities between both Ellie and Abby, they are both stuck in a love triangle (Ellie with Dina & Jesse, Abby with Owen and Mel) both groups of people have someone who is pregnant and both characters parents have died.

    on the ending - at the time i was upset Ellie spared Abby but looking back on it i can understand why she did, these two characters and how much damage they have done to each other with nothing to show for it. If Ellie did kill Abby she would of spared Lev (Because Lev spared Dina and Ellie) and the whole cycle of revenge would of began again with Lev and Ellie (An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind).    … Expand

    Gameplay is almost identical to Last of Us 1. The only new mechanic is the use of a rope every once in a while, not a game changer. The story is awful. So many holes in the plot. Another failed liberal agenda.

Still, solid gameplay, interesting universe set up, it still deserves a 5-6, but when your game is plain out story, they mad a poor decision for shock value.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. No entiendo las criticas a este titulo, como le gusta a la gente llorar por la muerte de Joel a las 2 horas de juego. Dicho esto, procedo a hacer mi critica.

    La trama principal trata sobre la venganza y de como una persona se auto-destruye cegad@ por la venganza, es un titulo muy adulto, la cual niños de 15 años no entenderán.

    El Gameplay es exactamente el mismo que el 1 con pequeñas mejoras como el tumbarse en la maleza, esquivar a los infectados con el L1, para mi este apartado es lo peor de este titulo.

    Los personajes son humanos con sus altibajos y sus puntos fuertes, son todos humanos, no parecen sacados de un videojuego.

    El primer flashback con Joel, se me ha caído una lagrima, porque fue muy tierno todo y no me esperaba volver a ver, ha estado bien que nunca jugaras con Joel,

    Y el final me ha gustado, es muy simbólico, dejando la guitarra que le dio Joel como diciendo que ha pasado pagina.

    Ojalá con el tiempo la gente se quite la polla de Joel del culo y vea lo buen titulo que es este TLOU 2, porque es un titulo de notable alto, valiente y con huevos a contar su historia sin tapujos.

    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]
