    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So, I just finished the game and I have mixed feelings about it, the graphics, design are incredible, although the gameplay is not very different from the first, because with all the time they had could have added more elements. Let's talk about Joel, I understand that the idea of he ​​dying could happen sooner or later, but the way it was it seems that they wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible just to fit Abby into the plot, they could have written a better story about how he would die. Gameplay was good in the beginning, but oh boy, how did it get repetitive, an infinite loop to do the same things over and over again, and getting Abby to forgive Ellie twice is kind of stupid isn't it? at that moment, in that world, it was a beginner's mistake and everyone knew it. Now talking about Abby, I don’t think it’s all bad to put her on the plot or even make us play with her, but man, what a boring gameplay, in the first moment until 1 hour after starting to play with her I wish I had stopped to play, just one key moment was to kill that infected giant, which was different and really interesting, why after all this time there is just few variations of infected? They tried too hard to make a good plot, and forgot the rest that could be much better. I finished the first game 6 times, and in this one I have no desire to play again, It's heartbreaking to see how they ruined the story, I don't care about the political agenda, but how hard you tried to do this and forget about everything else, so there’s no comparison with the first game, my grade is based on the first game it’s a 10 and this is a 2, so don’t keep thinking that gaining 95 of the critics who gained early access to the game is better than us who paid $ 60 on it . My expectations were high, TLOU will always be one of the best games for me, but this one is close to the worst, The best reviews are from IGN Japan, Game Revolution, your real grade from the Critics should be 70… Expand

    In my opinion, it is one of the best game in 2020 year. When I was playing the last of us 2, I felt a lot of unexpected emotions. Naughty dog, great job!

    [SPOILER FREE REVIEW]
    The game's story is indecisive at large, a lot of people love it, a lot of others hate it.
    The intro of the game is by far one of the most amazing entry's in video game history that I've seen with the amazing cinematography which seems to be inspired by Hideo Kojima's famous MGS5 one-shot cut scenes.

    The story itself is all about revenge, it's dark.
    The game isn't meant for everyone, the story it entails is dark and heartbreaking.
    There are some character deaths which has sparked controversy, which I myself personally found amazing as I filled up with hatred to continue the rest of the game.

    Personally, I love the story, but even if we take away the entire story and just focus on the game play, I would give the game a 7/10. The game on Survival is BRUTAL, It's exciting and makes you come up with hundreds of new ways to play the game. If you see a user score of 0/10 or 1/10, you should best leave it ignored, the amount of graphical achievements, art direction, game play, animations, they're way beyond anything I've seen in gaming.

    This game has surely surpassed technical leaps, to give it such a low score is disgraceful.
    While I do think the first game is better than the second one story wise, overall my experience in Part 2 was a lot more fun due to it's flashed out mechanics.

    This story is all about moral choices in a world that is cruel and you should ask yourself....Would you personally end the cycle of revenge?

    Just cause the game has characters that you love, doesn't mean they're safe, nor should they be perfect as people want them to be, and that's the beauty of this game, it's real and raw with emotion.

    It's a masterpiece for me, not meant for everyone.    … Expand

    DISAPPOINTING. I made an account just to give this game a review. How could they go from such a good first game to such terrible second game. The graphics were ok. The pacing was terrible. The gameplay was ok. The story was GOD AWFUL. The story was so bad I wanted to just stop playing. I’m actually mad I even wasted my time finishing this game. Going to try and get a refund.

    Terrible pacing, story and writing. I can't believe Naughty Dog took a sh*t on my favorite game of all time. They actively deconstruct character from the last game and make them do/say stupid thing to tell a pitiful story. if you love the first game, don't play this. You're gonna very disappointed

    Great graphic and animation, I had quite a lot of small bug but it's a stable game.

    This is a flawed game with an unsatisfying ending to it,

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don’t like the decision Naughty Dog did. Real hard what happens after 2 Hours playing the Game. It’s disgusting and annoying what they have done to one of the best Videogame ever!
    If we talk bout how it’s look it’s brilliant, no discussion for that; but there Is so bad and character and storytelling; also the message behind all don’t compare with the end and part 1. And how the Producers act with us Fans! We made the rich and big; not only the Games; The Uncharted Series are amazing and one of the Best Games worldwide, also The Last of Us 1!! But you also need a Community or Fans out there; and probably sometime you should listen to them! For me it is one of the worst storytelling Game ever. Charactertelling - >1/10
    Story -> -1/10
    Gameplay -> 3/10 but for 7 years to less innovative

    The Last of Us Part II should have been developed as a new IP instead of a sequel. TLOU2 checks all the boxes that a mediocre game is expected to have:clunky controls, cliche story lines and longer than it should have been.

    لا انصح بهذه اللعبة لانها بها شذوذ جنسي واخلاق سيئة يتم تعليمها وغرسها في الاطفال والشباب

    Only redeeming quality of this game was that the gameplay stayed the same as the first game, which should have been improved on considering the 7 year development gap. It's obvious that the studio left as it reflects in the writing and character development. Good job in destroying a world gamers loved, I'll be doing my best to pretend this game never came out.

    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]
