    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am playing this on PS4PRO. Watching a transgender not known by Joel getting his confidence and then killing him was RIDICULOUS! A total disrespect with the character and the fans. Oh graphics are fine, but after almost seven years it is the minimum we expected. And worse, you get to play as this trans! The story moved from heroism and loyalty to a teenager soap-opera.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Simply amazing. Graphics, animation and game play is so nice I've enjoyed every minute of playing it and planning to do so few times again. But the strongest thing on this master piece is the story. I cannot recall any other game which would be able to trigger so many different emotions in me. Of course, we all love Ellie and Joel after first game and secretly hoped for them to be main good heroes of the second part, but after finishing I'm so glad this game took me to different area. Oh, how uncomfortable I felt when started to play as Abby and how surprised I become when started to understand all her actions with the backgrounds. As well as I was stunned when Ellie showed her darker side by going directly for revenge in any cause and realizing it's consequences after. Part two gave me beautiful experience of how some things can be more than just straightforward good vs bad, every single event can have more points of views depending on who is experiencing it.… Expand

    An absolute rollercoaster of emotions and anxiety. You literally feel immersed into the characters and their lives / roles inside the incredible & beautiful environments. I believe it to be a masterpiece of a sequel, and the immense detail and design put into the game is phenomenal. 10/10

    It has the same gameplay of the 1st game and the expected graphics of a PS4 game: 5 points.

    It butchered an already developed character (pun intended) and has a sub par plot riddled with identity politics. Its a game that feels nothing like the 1st: -5 points.

    Total: 0 points.

    Horrible game. Would not recommend. Why did they think this would be a good story. I was so mad through the entire play-through. This game has no redeeming qualities.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I find it hilarious that people who complain about alleged "Reviews bombing" post reviews here that say nothing about the quality of the game and even admit that they only rate it to go against others and to manipulate the score, but whatever...

    Tlou2 hast good graphics and gameplay like its predecessor, its sound Design ist formidable, like its predecessor, and its really good at creating tension, like its predecessor. And here begin the problems, even for the stuff that's good there just isnt an awful lot of improvement compared to the original.

    Tension ist good, but where the first game switched between light and dark moments, adding contrast and therefore amplifying the emotional effects, Tlou2 for good parts, especially towards the end, is just all dark and the missing contrast makes you go numb rather than keeping you on the edge..

    However it is the story where things just fall apart, ND tries to convey the message that "vengeance is bad", which is cliche af and everyone already knew, but hey. They try to drive this home by splitting the game into a part where you play as Ellie from the first game and a part where you play as Abby, a new charakter who is introduced to us by means of her smashing Joels head in. And then they try to make you feel sympathy towards her... Yea, it just doesnt work.
    See, questioning the purpose of the fight and the status of the "villain" by making you play as him worked in Assassin's Creed 3 because you played as Kenway BEFORE being told that he was a templar. It made you question the evilness of the Templars by showing you that they believed themselves to be doing the right thing, because you believed yourself to be in the right while playing as him.
    Tlou2 introduced Abby by having her kidnap, torture and kill a fan favourite character from the first game and then makes you play as her going all "yea she has reasons and you should like her", well guess what it doesnt work. Matters arent helped by her being an unlikable ****
    It could have worked if they had put her part in the beginning of the game, having you hunt down her fathers killer without knowing who that is, and then after revealing it switching to Ellie, but the way it is it completely fails at what it sets out to do and the Abby Part is just dreadful to go thru as you have to play a charakter you despise.

    So the Story begins rather well, then turns to trash then gets somewhat better again and then culminates in an extremely unsatisfying ending. Glorious. And I paid money for that.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Después de terminar el juego y dejarlo reposar un par de días, mi nota final es de 9,6.
    A mi tampoco me gustó la forma como se desarrolla la historia y la manera como te manipulan pero después de un tiempo reflexionas y aprendes a vivir con ello, ahí empiezas a disfrutar la historia de verdad. En jugabilidad y tecnicamente es un 10/10. La historia y la narrativa 9/10. Aún así, entiendo a quienes se han cabreado aunque no considero eso suficiente como para venir a llorar aquí a colocar 0 o 3. Lo mejor es que quien esté interesado en el juego lo juegue y se haga su propia opinión.    … Expand

    Visuals and gameplay are entertaining enough but as most will say the story is just a big screw you to the player. We go through all that revenge plot to be scolded and told "NO, violence is bad mmmkay"

    No commitment to the characters we fell in love with in the first game. Forced SJW agenda. A very poorly written, generic revenge story with massive plot holes. An absolute middle finger to the fan base and one of the biggest storytelling meltdowns we have ever witnessed.

    Jogo cirúrgico, belo, me fez lidar com sentimentos terríveis. É triste ver as pessoas tacando hate por causa de duas mulheres adultas tendo cenas românticas por no máximo 10 minutos, e uma mulher mais forte que João Pedro de 15 anos, que deu nota 0 para o jogo. The Last of Us II realmente não é para todos, porque nem tudo mundo vai saber como lidar com os sentimentos que o jogo passa. BtwJogo cirúrgico, belo, me fez lidar com sentimentos terríveis.

    Extremely disappointed, in ND most of all, for allowing this insult to be published as a game under their brand, as a continuation of TLOU1. After 7 years of waiting, I would have expected a better plot than "Naruto vs Pain". As a big fan of The Last of Us 1 and a huge fan of the Uncharted series, Naughty Dog really blew it with this one. I was used to very good story telling from them. ItExtremely disappointed, in ND most of all, for allowing this insult to be published as a game under their brand, as a continuation of TLOU1.

    Una historia inconsistente y una falta de respeto al desarrollo de un gran personaje como lo era Joel, no empatizas con Abby al jugar con ella, al contrario es como si quisieras brincar las partes en la que la controlas, es como si alguien se hechara un pedo en tu cara y todavía te restregara el culo en el rostro

I think the Game can still be saved with a dlc where the player gets to find Abby or something.… Expand

    Amazing graphics and gameplay but a huge swing and miss on the story side... the game gives me the impression its story could work if the game manages you to care for these characters but then gives you just not enough time to grow on them. Its already only a +- 20 to 25 hour game, split into a two perspectives story with so many characters you barely know there personalities etc... sureAmazing graphics and gameplay but a huge swing and miss on the story side... the game gives me the impression its story could work if the game manages you to care for these characters but then gives you just not enough time to grow on them.

Not even talking about that insanely unsatisfying crappy ending that feels as if they thrown it together on the last day. Deff not the masterpiece the first one was and the gameplay alone is not enough to carry it to a passing grade for me....… Expand

    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]
