    Star Wars, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, теперь вот еще и Last Of Us - все к чему прикасаются современные SJW диграданты и прогнувшиеся перед ними разработчики и режиссеры - превращается в дерьмо в угоду политической повестке.

    Помимо, всем очевидного сюжетного провала - (все та-же, набившая оскомину история про сильных женщин - нелепых, пустых, неинтересных - Мери Сью, и да если    Star Wars, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, теперь вот еще и Last Of Us - все к чему прикасаются современные SJW диграданты и прогнувшиеся перед ними разработчики и режиссеры - превращается в дерьмо в угоду политической повестке.

    Скучно, тупо, затянуто, сделано без уважения к собственным персонажам и фанатам этих персонажей - ценящим. Не тратьте время на эту политическую агитку имени Дракмана/Саркисян.    … Expand

    This game is not what i hoped for. I found official trailers were misleading (specially in reference to one of the main characters) and game play is pretty much the same as the first game , no major changes there except the jump button. Story is just OK specially from Chapter 7 onwards, the main quest stopped making sense, from there on it really felt like a sub-standard side story /This game is not what i hoped for.

I think they ran out of ideas of how to make this game into a 20+ hours adventure so they just dragged the story in senseless manner.
    Overall this game is a massive disappointment. I should have waited for this to go on sale :(    … Expand

    The dumb end of the game.
    I am very sorry that due to low ratings, we are more unlikely to see such bold games from the studio. And there will be something like the Hollywood Uncharted.

    The truth of the matter is that this game is sanctimonious, destroys the characters of the first game, has immersion-breaking plot holes (in terms of character choices and actions) and is ultimately driven by ideology. This game almost seems designed to annoy and upset fans of the first game... it's tragic.

    As everyone know by now, this is a total disappointment. I'm really glad I watched a stream and did not pay for this "game".
    Wait, why do I get a 503 error when I try to score the game a low score? Metacritic is fixing the vote once again.

    They seem to have forgotten what made the first game good.

    The story is disjointed nonsense and the characters decisions don't really make sense.

    The game is honestly kind of depressing.

    -Story 1/10: Probably Naughty Dogs weakest story by far, its comparable to GoT Season 7 & 8 or the
    new Star Wars Trilogy. Very basic uninteresting Revenge Plot.

Sadly its a shame how the Devs treat their old    -Story 1/10: Probably Naughty Dogs weakest story by far, its comparable to GoT Season 7 & 8 or the
    new Star Wars Trilogy. Very basic uninteresting Revenge Plot.

    -Characters 2/10: The Characters are developed decently, they have natural conversations
    (sometimes to much imo) during the Gameplay and their emotions get conveyed
    really well. Sadly its a shame how the Devs treat their old established Characters, it
    feels like a kick in the balls to the fans and a cheap way to set up the weak plot
    (Disney Luke Skywalker is an easily drawn comparison) and all new Characters are
    very unlikable.

    -Gameplay 5/10: The weakest point in The Last Of Us was always the Gameplay. Sure some ppl like
    it, but its avarage at best and pretty boring. TLOU2 doesnt innovate here, but
    improves the established System a little bit, with some decent quality of life
    changes.

    -Graphics 9/10: Not much to say here, the Game looks insanly good. Only negative is the frame-rate.
    Ppl should wait till the PS5 release to get the optimal experience out of it.

    -Level design 2/10: Holy **** are these Levels "just there". They look beautiful and all, but are so empty
    they are very linear with almost no 2nd path or something to explore. Even some
    Call of Duty Levels are more interesting.
    -AI 4/10: Improved but very dated, feels like Im playing a stealth game from 2014.

    Fazit: I would give the Game a 4/10, from a technical point the Game is solid, but the Gameplay and Levels leave much to be desired and are never the selling point of the Game. What remains is the story which can in some way be interpreted as an attack to the fanbase (yes its that bad and the leaks were 100% accurate). So I would only suggest this Game to the few people who liked the 1st Game not for the story, but for the Gameplay.

    edit: I'm shocked and disgusted that Naughty Dog and Sony managed to pay this Game up to the rating of a Zelda Breath of the Wild. Shame on you, shame on the industry and corrupt press, Im actually speechless and disappointed.

Joel is murdered such a casual way very early in the game and then the half of the game we play as her murderer. At some point we're even trying to kill Ellie.

    No one wants a woke game; this is like an expansion for the first game, as the gameplay is exactly the same; the only thing that changes is the story about the protagonist trying to kill the other protagonist during the entire game... until she decides not to kill her at the last second...

    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]
