    Never have I ever seen a game with such poor writing. I’m a writer myself, and seeing such awful writing makes me want to gouge my own eyes out. Triple A games are a **** joke, don’t buy into this **** excuse for a game. I can only hope this game is buried in the sands of time, never to be spoken of again.

    Great graphics as usual. Didn't enjoy it at all. I understand there are changes to the storyline in sequels, but this isn't the Last of Us I miss and remember. Anyone want to by my copy?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a story about an apotalitic world where rules do not exist, ellie and Joel are two persons in the middle of these and they are exposed to all the dangers as much as other person in this world. I actually played the game and I really didn't like to play with Abby half of the game, less hours with her would be great, but it's good to see other views, life styles and the communities that exist in this world, and I think that is only possible playing with a character completely different. This game is about that world and not just Joel and ellie. Don't hate this game just because it's different to what we expected and give a chance.
    Thank you Naughty Dog! Another masterpiece    … Expand

    Probably my least favorite game story in the past 10 years, and the biggest let-down since mass effect 3.

    Tem que pedir pro roteirista não usar drogas antes de escrever, praticamente as unicas coisas boas são o grafico e a dublagem.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ellie being a lesbian is so forced in this game, the game is about fighting zombies not about highlighting how Ellie bangs women. Especially pissed me off when Joel dies because Ellie is banging her **** crush. Like are you serious they are forcing some love story in a game that has nothing to with that, it’s Ellie and Joel, there’s one god damn scene of them talking in the game how pathetic is that. I haven’t played more than 2 hours and I already am pissed off at Ellie and naughty dog, maybe if she wasn’t smoking weed and scissoring her gf Joel would still be alive to read this comment. And that is all I have to say on this matter.… Expand

Without spoiling anything because I believe everyone should either wait for sale or find a local place to rent this game (like I did). This game does many things right in terms of game play and graphics but vastly falls short in the story. Wish I could give it a 8-10 but honestly I'm reaching when it comes to the rating I've given. My opinion might not mean much but I felt the need to come here and give a legit review unlike the review bombing. There are many plot holes and lack of good taste in their writing when it comes to forcing their consumers to like Abby as a character, I don't hate her character because I enjoy her as a villain but I really don't like her as they try to portray her as the bad/good guy for some odd reason. A lot can be said but If you really wanna understand what's wrong with it I would recommend renting the game at a local family video (If you have one). Apologies for the lack of unity throughout my review it's pretty all over the place kinda like TLOU2. Thank you for read :)… Expand

    Note a patch on the first game. It feels like the developers, creators have bowed to political media trends. What happened to innovation?

    Do yourself a favour and don't waste your money. Worst story ever!!! Some results are not unacceptable, but the process of reaching it is too rough!
    In addition, part of the gameplay experience is also very bad. The open world design and some unnecessary stories really affect the game rhythm. I want to sleep several times during the game.

    Thanks for murdering the game I've been waiting for years. I try to pretend this isn't real, since my first encounter with the game 7 years ago was unique, I felt so connected to it and its story. This is just straight up disgusting.

    A striking story, enhanced by a captivating atmosphere and a renewed and careful gameplay.
    All for at least between 20 - 25h of game . What more requested?
    For me the worthy successor of TLOU .

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great Visuals, level design, gameplay, facial animatión. Obviusly as other reviews, in the history is kind they kill joel and that can give you a shock, also the history is about revenge which is not that original. But I dont think that is enough to make the game bad. Actually is pretty entetrtaining, no as challenging as the first one, even in survivor difficulty. i hope they introduce a grounded difficulty as the firts one.… Expand

    They didn't accept it, their mind exploded and they just decided to take down the game here. They actually haven't played it. They wrote the review the same day the game came out, but they also pretend that the game is 36h+. MAD
    The story is very good, but if you can't get past THAT moment, you'll never understand it. Many people expected something else and when they got this their brain just went *puff*

    Listen to me, the game is good. I'm giving 10/10 only because i think it's unfair from us to take down a big work that took them 5 years to develop. It's not as good as the first, but i honestly think it's an amazing game, but you can fully enjoy it only if you played the predecessor.

    Btw about the gameplay: yes it's like 7 years ago plus some little new features... yeah, so is that bad? what you expected? a change like GTA from 2D to 3D? Guys, the gameplay of a sequel 99% of the times is the same as the previous game, it's logical. The new characters are good (not everyone is good as the older ones, but to be fair, even in the first one we had 2 elite characters and all the others were just good or average, nothing that good)

    Masterpiece. Nothing short of the word. Completed the game last night and have been pondering ever since. This game makes you think about actions and consequences. It's unlike any game I've ever played. Smart story with brilliant character moments. Worthy follow-up to my favorite game ever.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Okay, so as a real HOT take some people might not like: the game is good. TLOU has never been about having a happy ending. Literally the game serves as a vehicle for trauma and grief. Yes, the first one ended with Ellie and Joel together, but at what? The cost of millions of lives. Don’t even get me started about Left Behind. Why the game is good. It is a natural progression of what is likely to happen next in the TLOU universe. Like, is it REALLY probable that Joel would get away with killing a rather large portion of an already minuscule and dwindling population? NO!! Of course someone came after him and like while I was enraged and hate what happened to Joel I was able to step away from my love/attachment to him and think critically about the powerful character development we were being given: - the game is about family and family can either be the found family (Joel and Ellie) or it can be blood (Abby and Jerry) we are given a chance to see the world of the game through different lenses and I think it makes it more dynamic and for the better. - Getting to play as who the fans primarily see as the “bad guys” and see how they view themselves as good and gain an attachment to the characters from the WLVs is kind of eye opening. (Still hate Abby tho nice try naughtydog) - THE GRAPHICS. Like we take a lot of things for granted in this game but literally the fact that it’s like playing an HD movie is insane. 10/10 detail work 10/10 art. - the flashbacks with Joel and Ellie are incredibly heartening and it was a nice addition to have in the game and helped show more of the dynamic growth of Ellie the dorky teen to Ellie as an angry angsty adult. - guitar mini game SLAPS. it’s fun to mess with and is a good break from the stress and anxiety of stealthing it everywhere. - you can pet the dogs - GAY RIGHTS GAY RIGHTS GAY RIGHTS. But genuinely, being able to play as a character who is a lesbian and isn’t a caricature of a lesbian was very rewarding and make me really happy!! The Bad:

    - you have to kill dogs and like? To be real that is super upsetting

    - I hated being FORCED to play as Abby and like I completely understand it was to endear us to her but like I hate her mf guts. Like regardless of how much “oh look she is a good person and has good friends :^)” that is shoved at us. I think if it had been more intermittent, like how we got the younger Ellie flashbacks it would’ve been more bearable instead the second half is just like “you’re Abby and you WILL cope w it” - there was a lot of potential in dina’s character and we got some of it but I would’ve loved to get to know her more outside of the synagogue scene    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The graphics are top tier but I hated everything else. The controls are clunky and combat is confusing. The story line and ending left me with more questions than answers. Hard to see anything of substance when the writers were just gunning for shock value.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I dislike this game. I won't give a higher score for game play, graphics, etc because those are to be expected as a natural part of development for this company. It'd be nothing more than a participation trophy. So my rating is based on the game as a whole. I don't know what happened here but you can feel the tug of war between the characters, world, and story. This amounted to plot holes and an overall feeling of detachment from the game/characters. It broke what I feel is taboo in story telling (though I know it's been done before) of killing a main character. Very sad effort. It also feels like things were being changed at late stages of production. The story here is just really poorly told. Sorry naughty dog but the final game really missed the mark. I won't be considering it part of the TLOU canon.… 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]
