    Excellent - there's a lot to take in after playing through the whole experience.

    Yes, it's understandably divisive in terms of what the story takes you through. Many feel uncomfortable with the game's direction, including myself halfway through for a period of time, but that's what makes Last of Us games stand out from others on the market. I believe it will only age well. Like the Game
    Excellent - there's a lot to take in after playing through the whole experience.

    Yes, it's understandably divisive in terms of what the story takes you through. Many feel uncomfortable with the game's direction, including myself halfway through for a period of time, but that's what makes Last of Us games stand out from others on the market. I believe it will only age well. Like the Game of Thrones universe, the world is muddied with shades of gray moralities among the characters - many of which aren't likable or understandable at first impressions. That sometimes changes over time and sometimes not at all. The game-play, combat, graphics, and scope have improved greatly. AI is not the smartest, however.

    I hope some of the gaps in the game's timeline can be played in a future title - there's still a lot of untouched potential based on the can that was opened up with this story. Don't miss this game; but also if you give it a go, try and play through to the ending. The gaming world needs more games of this caliber of immersion & story-telling.

    Historia agridulce y me gusta lo agridulce, el guión presenta bastantes incoherencias y el final me ha dejado con gusto amargo, pero es sin duda una potente historia emocional con el mejor gameplay que se ha visto hasta la fecha.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Desde la historia se siente rápida y no te da tiempo para entender el por qué de la situación, hoy sábado 27 de junio lo termine y puedo decir que es un gran juego, está a la par del anterior
    Muchos se quejan de la muerte de Joel, que esperaban? Una muerte lleva de gloria, elogios, un monumento a Joel? Me temo que no se dan cuenta de lo falso que son ese tipo de muertes, ¿que Joel no fue precavido y se confío?, No se si entendieron la historia pero bien claro se dice que en Jackson siempre se aceptaba gente nueva, Joel obviamente ya no era el mismo desconfiado de antes, ahora se tuvo que adaptar a su nuevo hogar

    Ahora el final, un final muy agridulce, ya qué Ellie termina sola y dejando atrás a Joel (dejando su guitarra y tocandola por última vez) está claro que Ellie se dio cuenta que su venganza solo la destruyo, no le causó nada más que perdidas, dolor y sufrimiento. El por qué dejo viva a abby fue su acto de compasión al ver y pensar en Joel otra vez, ya que ella antes de que muriera Joel le dice que quiere perdonarlo por lo que hizo, lo cual nos lleva a abby, Ellie como no pudo llegar a perdonar a Joel lo refleja con abby perdonandole la vida

    Este juego tiene muchisma filosofía y pensamientos abstractos, pero con un poco de atención los llegas a notar y disfrutar el juego bastante, no deberían dejarse llevar por reseñas y jueguenlo ustedes mismos para que tengan su propio apreciación del mismo

I LOVED the first game, I played it 3 times and had months of time spent on the Multiplayer (Which i truly hope they add back in). I enjoyed TLOU2 though, even though I was upset with Joel dying so fast. He's still in the game for more time than I expected and I loved those moments. Playing as Abby is actually enjoyable no matter how much I though I'd hate her, aside from "The Fight with Ellie". Really the only 2 things I feel could have made this game better is 1. if there was a factions mode released with the game because I love how satisfying the kills are and 2. If they would have given Abby a better character model, she could have been prettier and a little less manly and this would without a doubt be a 10/10 i wont knock a point off for Abby being so ugly lol But because it doesnt have a MP mode ill dock a point since it released with the first game. The game is actually fun to play, visually stunning. Gameplay and sound are forsure better then the first, the story has its ups and downs just like life itself does. Theyre truly alot of beautiful moments in the game and alot where youre like damn what the hell just happen, it has forsure made me never want to put the controller down though. I dont understand what all the hate is about man, its kind of sad honestly because its easily one of the best games I've ever played TLOU1 is still the GOAT but this one improves on Part 1 in a lot of ways.

Graphics, quality,sound,etc,amazing.The story is completely fine,nothing wrong.I would like to explain why.A beloved character from the first game gets tortured to death by ABBY.This part made people mad and I understand cause I was pissed to,but as I got deeper in I really felt the urge of getting revenge and everyone knows what they were getting there selves into since this was a revenge story;moreover,playing as Joel's killer also made people mad,which I understand,but isn't it interesting to see Abby's part of the story and see why she did what she did.Overall I enjoyed the game and would recommend playing it.Let me know your thoughts on my review.

Juego muy muy muy esperado quizás eso a veces juega en contra y se tienen espectativas más allá de las que uno puede obtener en el producto final , en el ámbito gráfico y jugable es de 10 nada que reclamar unos pequeños fallos que no afectan la jugabilidad, lo jugué en difícil para aprovechar mejor la inteligencia artificial del juego lo que me pareció bastante bien los enemigos eran más fuertes y aprovechaban más el entorno para franquearnos, lamentablemente el punto más bajo es la historia , está mal construida nos obligan a jugar con Abby justo cuando ya teníamos el desenlace de la historia pudieron haber hecho capitulo intermedio entre ellie y Abby y quedaba mejor , nos hacían empatizar con Abby y entender la motivación que tenía por matar a Joel pero no , nos hacen jugar con ella como si fuese un juego nuevo eso no me gustó y lo peor es el final uno quiere hacer "justicia" de cierta forma ya que uno siempre es héroe o víctima en su propia historia y se nos prohíbe esa sed de venganza o de querer hacer justicia por algo que se nos arrebato de manera tan abrupta es el único pero ya que en los otros ámbitos es excelente muy entretenido Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pero la mayoría de las quejas se centren en la muerte que le dieron a Joel, por una razón básica: el juego no es solo una situación, es una acumulación de momentos, sensaciones y acciones que dan un todo. Y que nadie sea capaz de ver más allá me asombra en cuanto a la poca crítica objetiva que hay al respecto (sobran los que se quejan de la muerte de Joel pero sobran aún más los que se quejan de la sexualidad de las personajes)

    Abby es una mujer que quería vengar no solo la muerte de su papá sino también reventar al tipo que dejó sin cura a la humanidad. No podés empatizar con ella? Perfecto, a mí es un personaje que no me gustó, no me identifiqué en ningún momento con ella, pero la clave no es amarla sino entenderla: qué haría uno en su lugar? Acaban de matar a tu papá cometiendo uno de los peores crímenes para la humanidad de paso, QUÉ HARÍAS? Yo te puedo asegurar que siendo Abby lo que le haría a Joel sería peor que lo que le hizo.

    Todos amamos a Joel, y a mí me quebró su muerte. Fue muy fuerte, pero ahí es donde empieza el verdadero argumento del juego: la venganza de uno se convierte en la venganza del otro, y así se crea un ciclo de violencia y muerte que no tiene fin. "Ojo por ojo quedaremos todos ciegos" dice un refrán, y acá quedó más que claro cuando al final Ellie queda completamente sola, Tommy está quebrado y completamente solo.

    No olvidemos que no es "The Last Of Us 2", sino que es "Parte 2". Qué significa eso? Que no es una secuela para ver cómo puede llegar a seguir la historia, sino que es la parte de una historia global que nos faltaba aprender, nos faltaba ver las consecuencias de lo que pasó y entender a su vez que lo que estamos haciendo ahora también tendrá consecuencias que en el caso de Ellie serán brutales, nada favorables.

    En fin: ojalá la crítica pudiera ser más global y reflexionar sobre los errores que cometió el juego.

    Easily one of the best if not the best told stories in video game history. I empathized with the characters on both sides of the story-something a binary good versus evil environment doesn't foster. Motion capture, dialogue, emotion, meticulously recreated setting, musical inclusion- in a word, "immersive."

The story is something you will be digesting for a few days after finishing it, but what is most impressive for me, are the risks Naughty Dog took on the narrative side. I'm not giving the game a 10 as I think a few parts were unnecesary and would be a definite 10 if the game had 3 o 4 hours less of gameplay from the second part.

    Congrats Naughty Dog, and thank you.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This review contains spoilers. The Last of Us 2 is a true testament to how not to make a sequel for a game. While gameplay received better animations and such, it mostly remained the exact same and becomes monotonous and predictable over the 25+ hour story. While it’s not bad, you'd hope for a much bigger upgrade or overhaul of crafting and other gameplay mechanics, but many remained completely untouched. But the gameplay isn’t what causes this game to be a failure in my opinion, because that’s not what people really play TLOU for anyways. People play for the characters and story, which is nothing short of disappointing and misguided in this game. The utter lack of respect toward previous or even new characters prevents the player from getting invested in them, and the game fails to utilize the one relationship the player was already invested in going into the game. Instead they demolish that relationship, and never really show it getting back to anything of what it used to be. Most other characters in this game are stagnant and replaceable, and while they have good performances, fail to make me care about them in a meaningful way. That is, until they get brutally murdered on a quest for revenge. By the end of the game I was so numb to violence nothing shocked me anymore, and I’m not sure what the game was even trying to say through all this violence and misery. What I do know is that I feel devastated for Ellie and deep hatred for another character. I truly hope Naughty Dog lets this franchise die in the pit they dug for it. I absolutely loved the first game, but this train wreck wants me to feel depressed for nothing. Some of the lessons it tries to teach seem so stupidly simple I asked myself if I was even hearing it right. All I can hear now is the ringing in my ears after listening to one of my favorite games get pillaged and massacred in the name of “Subverted Expectations”. Do not recommend Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game really took me on a emotional rollercoaster. With the death of Joel I was immediately in rage mode. I literally paused the game for like 30min and I wanted Abby dead. Through the whole game playing as Ellie that was all on my mind and I didn't care to kill anyone. The game really makes you feel this as it shows flask backs with Joel and Ellie (real tough) and kinda made me more upset. But through the journey you take a lot of lives and you can see it starts to way on Ellie and it did for me as well. The game take you through killing majority of the crew that killed Joel until you end up killing Abby's lover and and the woman bearing his child and her. This takes a big toll on Ellie. Through all of this Ellie isn't the only at risk. She puts her lover Dina and close friend Jesse. Dina is actually pregnant and I believe this is why it was so hard on Ellie knowing she killed someone that was pregnant like Dina. The story doesn't end there; it then makes you play as Abby. OMG at first this pissed me off. Personally I let her die a lot on purpose but as her story was revealed it was just sad for both her and Ellie. Abby is the daughter to one of the fire fly doctors that Joel killed at the end of the first game that also wanted revenge. Overall this story is great and not in the way I anticipated at all. This isn't perfect and sometimes the enemy AI is clueless or extra hard for example the clickers would still react towards me being to close though they can't see. Unless there's something I don't know I don't understand that part. Gameplay is still what the last of us is supposed to be but I wish the stealth would've been better or more options. This was a great representation of the cycle of hate and revenge and a long story at that. And I'm glad I got to experience it with avoiding spoilers.85/100 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]
