    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is amazing, in apocalyptic games, we almost always have an ending with some kind of silver lining or hopeful future, not with this game. The ending hurts, and it's supposed to, we watch Ellie destroy both herself and everything she had trying to track down and kill Abby, it was only at the last second she realized she had become a monster and was about to traumatize Lev the same way she was traumatized by Abby. But it's too late, Dina left her, she'a all alone, and to top it all off, she can't even play guitar anymore, one of the key things that still connected her to Joel.

    Fair warning to anyone reading: 99% of the negative reviews were written on the day it came out when it was impossible to have beaten the game, and the vast majority of those reviews are due to the queer representation the game shows, which they did a phenomenal job of.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last Of Us Part II is a game where you play two different characters, one you love right out the gate. The other you hate with a fiery passion. This game shows you two sides of the story of revenge and how it affects people on both sides. This game you would definitely have to give it time and see what the story is trying to tell you and understand the character’s motive, Abby. Great gameplay and scenery making me be in awe of such an amazing game with a story with believable characters and heart breaking scenes! This is one of the best games I’ve played and I look forward to another game in the future if they choose to do so! Expand

    If you go into the game expecting a story similar to the first, both in terms of theme and in the characters then you will likely not enjoy this game. if you go into it with an open mind it could be the greatest game you've played in your life

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. me parece un juego fantástico mejora muchos aspectos del primero , siento que el agrado del modo historia es subjetivo aun así considero como fan el juego se ambienta en un mundo post apocalíptico no en el mundo de my little ponny (sin ofender a los fans) me refiero a que muchos eventos suceden por la crudeza en la cual este juego se desarrolla tiene puntos muy buenos cambiaría pequeñas cosas pero lo considero un 9.5 o 10 el juego es una montaña rusa de emociones y es sin duda algo que debes jugar no ver para poder transmitir los sentimientos me parece grandioso y considerando todo lo que esta pasando actualmente en el mundo y aun con esto que el equipo de naughty dog se esmerase en no seguir aplazando la salida del game lo agradezco demasiado este juego nos dividió a los fans en intolerantes y haters y en quienes pudimos conectar con la visión del equipo tratándonos de saltar todos los spoilers por los que fuimos bombardeados sin duda deben jugarlo Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game does so many great things in terms of its gameplay, setting, music, graphics and all you could think that make a great game. But I cannot stop being conflicted about the gameplay section with Abby, at first my immersion into Ellie was broken because I had to play as the character that did the most atrocious thing in the world of tlou and its first hours of gameplay were the most boring in the gameplay, but then it picks up the action you get more shocking scenes and interesting combat but I still didn’t grow to love or hate Abby, I was just in the middle after we finished playing with her. The begging and the ending of the game are one of the most impactful pieces of media I have experienced in my life, the ending makes you feel at peace, conflicted, accomplished and empty it is truly amazing. The gameplay is 10/10 graphics 10/10 environment 10/10 but the story is a 7/10 if you didn’t play as Abby that long at best it would have been a 9 because it has some pacing issues. I get where ND was coming from as to humanize the enemy but I just feel that her character from her appearance to her actions should have been more humanized like make her more attractive not this John cena type of girl with braids and make her actions not that brutal as to sympathize with her because why would we care for Joel’s killer. If Abby wouldn’t have been playable for that long the story would have been a masterpiece FOR ME, but still that’s why I give it an 8/10 because the story is beautiful but Abby could have been approached differently.

    The game is amazing .
    The music , plot , gameplay, area design are near perfect and the humans who try to kill you are smart almost like real human my only problem with the game is the fact that it makes a lot of noise on my PS4

    Best videogame I ever played if I was not interested in the plot.
    This time Naughtydog has crossed the limit without having passed it.

    To the prospective player:

    This game is a masterpiece. While I am partial to the first game, this game will challenge your perspective on morality, revenge, and justice which will shake you at your core.

    To the whiners out there:

    If you wanted a game that was all sunshine and roses, and had perfect outcomes for all the characters even though it is no mystery that this series is bleak and harsh, you are being ridiculous because you should have known better. Go play uncharted, it is certainly the more "light" game Naughty Dog puts out for those that have separation anxiety from main characters and want everything to work out perfectly for everyone.

    I was very well entertained. Sure, the story isn't everybody's cup of tea, but if every producer would just do fan service we would have a lot of predictable stories with happy endings.
    The gameplay is as usual very good (at least better than e.g. in RDR2) and for me the journey was exciting and varied.
    If you liked the first part and can live with it if the story doesn't continue

    If you liked the first part and can live with it if the story doesn't continue according to your own ideas, I can give you a clear recommendation.

    By the way, I have never understood how you can play through a game with more than 25 hours duration (somehow it must be fun) and then give 0 points.
    And I don't even want to start with homophobic morons...

    esse jogo e simplesmente lindo, uma historia bem desenvolvido onde mostra os dois lados da moeda, em diversos momento fiquei emocionado com a historia, momentos de tensão, de felicidade, de ódio, tudo isso somando ao que possivelmente foi o melhor jogo que já joguei em toda minha vida, deve seus erros, mas foram erros que não impedirão a historia de ser linda do jeito que foi

    The Last of Us 2 is a masterful game that takes you on an adventure filled with complex human emotions and decisions.

    Amazing graphics possibly the best looking video game ever combined with some of the most visceral and satisfying combat with a story that is highly debatable makes this a 9 for me.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is awesome game. Great graphics and great story in my opinion. Some people have criticized this as bad only after a couple of hours of playing or because they have read the spoilers. Sounds in the game is very good and music is incredible. This is for me a game of the year.
    I recommend playing to the end and then giving your opinion on the game because there are a lot of different flavors and styles for different games to play and you shouldn’t stare too many reviews just because you have to actually play and then think about what you liked.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For anyone debating purchasing this game...DON'T! This is by far the worst sequel to any game ever. Waiting 7 years for this game just to have the director of the game give a big **** you to the fans who supported him. Who cares about the game play or graphics when the whole story sucks. Stop trying to make excuses for this garbage game, for people to go as far as to say that people who hate this game are homophobic, sexist or xbox fans...really ? I'm a woman who supports LGBTQ community and Playstation fan and I hate this game. The anger lies in the fact is they completely deceived fans in the trailers and gave no fan service. Don't waste your money on this. Being forced to play as Joel's killer... what were they thinking...this entire game had me yelling at the TV.. nobody asked!!! 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]
