    It's a polished turd. Looks nice but it's still just a turd. I hate what they did to this game.

    "The Last of Us" series is forever ruined for me thanks to this awful sequel with the worst writing I've seen.

    Loved it. Don’t agree with the ending, but every other aspect is phenomenal. This game has to be experiencer solo, which is why for the first time ever, the critics are right and the youtube streamers are wrong.

    Геймплей остался на уровне первой части, сюжет деградировал, концовка слита.

    Эта история имеет высказывание, хорошо работает с реальностью, но ее структура, повествование скомканные, порой слишком медленно развивается сюжет, но как итог пропускают части которым бы стоило уделить время.

Я не могуЭта история имеет высказывание, хорошо работает с реальностью, но ее структура, повествование скомканные, порой слишком медленно развивается сюжет, но как итог пропускают части которым бы стоило уделить время. Например, отношения Эбби с друзьями, почему они общаются, почему Эбби они дороги, может сложиться впечатление, что они не дружат с Эбби а только выполняют ее приказы. Я не могу понять ее трагедию, т.к. нет привязанности к персонажу настолько сильной как к Элли после первой игры.

    И конечно помимо повесток о круге насилия, мести, перемести в игре уделено много внимание и другим существующим проблемам. В игре очень тонко и ненавязчиво рассказывается о проблемах ЛГБТ, правах женщин. Все это мастерски вписано в игру, не режет глаза и главное является частью персонажей, не отделимо от них, т.е. сущность самих персонажей. И обойти эти важные темы никак было нельзя, нам все это заявили еще в первой части. Конечно мир в реальности был бы куда более жесток и кровожаден. Элли и Дину бы избили, если не убили после поцелуя в баре, Льва бы тоже сразу убили, что в прочем в игре и пытались сделать, а терпеть Эбби и других тоже бы не стали. В мире постапокалипсиса с правами человека туго. Но тем и лучше для нас, ведь сейчас в мире более лучшем, чем раньше и лучше, чем может нам сулить существуют такие гениальные авторы, которые могут вываливать на нас огромные философские рассуждения в играх и двигать наш мир вперед к открытости, свободе, уважению, толерантности.

    Нил Дракманн очень смелый, дерзкий человек, который безумно нужен этому миру, он делает мир лучше и запускают общественную дискуссию. Дракманн, тот кто срывает покровы ложной политкорректностис людей заблудших в дебрях старых догм и показывает этих личностей которые из-за зашоренных взглядов тормозят общество, и в прямом смысле убивают своим отношением других в нашем реальном мире, но теперь у нас есть возможность показать людям с дремучими взглядами, что они не правы. Дракманн это тот самый, один из наших спасителей, новатор, с нетерпением буду ждать его новых проектов.    … Expand

    Is it as good as the first one? In terms of story, no. But that is a near-impossible bar. But the gameplay is absolutely heart-racing. It takes what was great about the gameplay of the first game and ramps it up on every level. And even though the story wasn't perfect, I found myself completely invested - especially by the end.

I just watched a summary of the story from part 1, so I understand what happens in part 2. So I can rate the pure game without having to compare it with part 1. I played through the title on "normal" in about 21h!

    Let's anticipate the positive: The graphics, sound and the ambience of the environments are really on an excellent level. Most of the work and is definitely in the 3D models and mapping. The different areas in which you move around are quite varied and beautiful in themselves. Especially the woods are beautiful and invite you to stay. The first 2 hours of the game are very captivating and you definitely want to know what happens next.

    Unfortunately, these were all positive things that come to my mind at first go.

    Up to the point where it happens you realize how deep and touching the story could be. Exactly at that point the story stops for 16 hours. There are always flashbacks, some of which are totally irrelevant and could not really contribute to the story. What was even more annoying was the Xth review of the review. In general I find it absolutely annoying even in movies when you try to explain something by looking into the past for the 5th time. I find a constructive story much more understandable than one that looks back and forth. Many flashbacks could have been finished in 5 minutes. Many of these retrospectives were only artificially extended in an outrageous way. I often forgot what happened 6 hours ago, because I've been loitering and killing stupid enemies for hours. Of course there were always short story moments in between. But if we are honest, they were extremely rare and quickly forgotten. The last 2h were really exciting and very well staged. If I break that down I had about 4h of good moments and 17h of running from house to house and killing stupid enemies. The idea of the story is unfortunately nothing special! Person 1 kill person 2 who totally liked person 3 and person 2 wants revenge on person 1. I mean we often saw and played exactly that way. there were not really any twists or surprises during the whole story that would have been good for the story. The end was already relatively clear after 2h and came 0 surprisingly. In the end, it would have been better to add more twists and push the whole story to 6h or 8h and not extend the whole crap to over 20h. I would have preferred to have 8h of action and story all the way through rather than having to wait all the time. The part with Abby was, I think, also much too long.

    If you want to talk about the opponents and the AI, you have to say clearly that I was not challenged much. The AI of the people running with us is on the level of a toast. The AI runs into the middle of the battlefield and stands in the middle of it until you attack. Even worse are the enemies that were right in front of you and the AI that runs with me and does exactly nothing. Whether they're human or zombie. Although the AI has often flanked in battle, but that was often easy to avoid by just lying down in the grass. Often I had the problem of missing ammunition. Especially before the few boss fights there was much too little ammunition. The rat king just annoyed me, because I went into combat with barely 20 shots in total. Sure, it could be that I stopped trying to find every boring house at some point but you never know when a boss is coming. The only thing I found cool was that you could always play stealth or aggressive.

    You can't complain much about playing. The behaviour of the character while running, running, climbing etc. was really well implemented. The technique with the rope was really very good. But that was the only technique you seemed to rest on. At some point the rope throwing became really boring. The weapons in general are varied and it always makes sense to use different weapons on different opponents. The skill tree was interesting but not really decisive in the fight.

    So what can you say as a conclusion? The game is good but unfortunately story-wise much too boring and playfully much too monotonous. After a certain time you only run from house to house or floor to floor and kill and plumb. In between there were always some short story moments. The idea of being able to play the antagonists half of the game is good, but it was just annoying here and was much too long. If I use the 100% rating scale, I would give the game 69%. The game only shines graphically but otherwise only very rarely in the story.

    I wouldn't wish for part 3 in this case!    … Expand

    Jogo incrível, lindo e muito bem feito. Os gráficos são perfeitos e a história é muito cativante, ela te prende em cada momento, não é exaustiva e te intrigada cada vez mais. As outras produtoras deveriam aprender a fazer jogos como este. Tudo o que o final da geração precisava.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I feel some of the utterly scathing reviews for Last of Us Part 2 are disingenuous - but not unjustifiable. The game simply does not live up to its predecessor in terms of story. Returning characters are badly written and the majority of new characters are instantly forgettable. The ending offers no real narrative or emotional payoff making you ask yourself “What was the point?” This lack of closure makes the violence feel perverse – falling into the clichéd “violence for violence’s sake” trope.
    Where this game does shine is of course in its visual presentation. The game is stunning to look at and can be forgiven for acting like it knows it a times. The mechanics are immersive (while perhaps repetitive) and the AI is for the most part excellent. Inclusion of new in depth accessibility options feels like a real game changer which may prove to be a staple for future AAA titles.
    As a massive fan of the series' first iteration this is an imperfect game with painfully apparent flaws, which undeniably falls short of the mark. The game somehow teeters continuously on the edge of breath-takingly good and gut wrenchingly bad which feels like a feat in and of itself.    … Expand

While the graphics and attention to detail are incredible, the gameplay feels outdated as the improvements and innovations are minimal and the whole experience becomes tedious, especially in the final hours. Most important of all however, the story is simply uninspired and does not deliver as beloved characters are reduced to nothing, and the newly introduced characters are not fleshed out or developed in any way. Characters make extremely dumb decisions just to further the desired narrative and this completely takes you out of the experience. The shoehorned political narratives also do not help the game's likability in the slightest. It is also worth mentioning that some scenes in the trailers are very misleading which can only be seen as taking advantage of people's faith in ND.

Only going to say that people who are hating clearly didn’t understand the message and story that the naughty dog team where telling. Everyone is annoyed at the death of a beloved character, this death ( tho is very upsetting for Ellie and the player) leads the story down the revenge arc to then open players up to the discussion of revenge: an eye for an eye and wether the idea of survival is valid. Well done naughty dog.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I love the game. However, I just can't accept what Naughty Dog did with the main antagonist. Her origin story and character development was good but I don't feel great playing her for almost half of the game.

    Definitely it has different narrative, the first "Tragedy-Drama" game that I've encountered. It challenges the player's stance and moral regarding Hate and Guilt. Could have been better if players have the power to choose how the game ends. Well I guess it is what it is.

    Performance and technical wise the game is at the top. I have no complaints with these aspects whatsoever. Naughty Dog obviously gambled with this game. I wish they've found all the praise and criticism helpful for their next project.    … 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.
