    It's just so bad. I loved Last of us but this is just bad. The graphics are good but that doesn't compensate with the bad and illogical writing, and coupled with SJW-washing. It's just sad how political correctness reached gaming.

    The Last of Us part II es un juego que desde su anuncio por ahí del año 2016 me mantuvo muy emocionado y siempre al pendiente de cada actualización y trailer que lanzaban y por fin despues de una larga espera el juego se puso a la venta hace poco más de una semana y tengo muchas cosas que decir al respecto, todo será libre de spoilers.
    Empezaré hablando sobre los aspectos positivos de    The Last of Us part II es un juego que desde su anuncio por ahí del año 2016 me mantuvo muy emocionado y siempre al pendiente de cada actualización y trailer que lanzaban y por fin despues de una larga espera el juego se puso a la venta hace poco más de una semana y tengo muchas cosas que decir al respecto, todo será libre de spoilers.
    Empezaré hablando sobre los aspectos positivos de este juego para posteriormente explayarme con aspectos negativos sobre el mismo.
    ASPECTOS POSITIVOS.
    1. Puedo casi asegurar y dar fe de primera mano de que el juego en lo que respecta al apartado gráfico y técnico es de lo mas sorprendente que podemos encontrar en una consola de sobremesa:
    *La inteligencia artificial es casi de sobresaliente ya que saben reaccionar bien a los tiroteos sobretodo en máxima dificultad y eso hace que los enemigos sean mucho más letales e impredecibles que en la primera parte. Hay una mayor variedad de infectados con caracteristicas únicas como por ejemplo los chasqueadores de toda la vida, acechadores, gordinflones y una que otra sorpresa por ahí que prefiero que descubran por si mismos, por otro lado, del lado de los no infectados tenemos tambien buena variedad entre Serafitas, Lobos y Rattlers cada uno de ellos con cosas únicas y que los diferencian del resto.
    *La banda sonora sigue siendo fenomenal, para esta segunda entrega el maestro Gustavo Santaolalla regreso para darnos esa dosis de melancolia y suspenso que solo el puede darle a los juegos de The Last of Us. El audio de igual manera es brutal, el sonido de los infectados te pone los pelos de punta y las voces de los enemigos son demasiado claras hasta el punto de poder intuir de donde provienen, tal como si nosotros estuvieramos presentes.
    * Las físicas del entorno son probablemente los mejores hechos en un videojuego a la fecha, desde, balas del francotirador de Tommy yendo por el agua, las pisadas en la nieve, la forma en la que los cuerpos de los enemigos reaccionan a proyectiles en zonas especificas, las formas de morir, los charcos de agua, los paseos a caballo, etc, todo demasiado cuidado y pulido hasta el punto de sorprender de una forma totalmente genuina.
    *La variedad de armas y mejoras es mucho mayor al de la primera parte, tanto Abby como Ellie poseen armas diferentes y mejoras de skill totalmente adaptadas a la personalidad de cada una.
    *Los momentos a lo "Naughty Dog" no escasean en este título, ya que contiene escenas a la par de las persecuciones epicas en Uncharted 4.
    ASPECTOS NEGATIVOS
    *La historia del juego es muy cruda tal cual como pudimos observar en la primera entrega, sin embargo en esta ocasión se sobrepasarón de la raya en muchas ocasiones hasta el punto en que puede ocasionar molestias en el jugador y sobretdo hasta en el fanatico mas empedernido (como yo) de la saga, todo derivado de una historia que pudo ser contada de una mejor manera y que intento mucho pero a la vez no logro nada, fuera del aspecto de la supuesta "inclusión" la cual a mi punto de vista puede pasar completamente desapercibido la historia se toma demasiadas libertades que al final no fueron bien implementadas. No me malentienda, la historia durante las primeras 10 horas es completamente aceptable y con un buen ritmo, sin embargo, durante la segunda mitad del juego se va todo al caño logrando que el final del juego te deje helado y sin palabras en el sentido negativo.
    En conclusión The Last of Us part II es un videojuego enorme que se vio manchado por la forma tan mala en la que desarollaron la historia, siendo probablemente uno de los mayores fracasos narrativos para Naughty Dog.    … Expand

    Este juego es genial e incomprendido, quizá a mucha gente no le gusto la forma en como se contó la historia donde recurrieron a muchos flashbacks pero una vez que lo terminas y logras unir todas las piezas de la historia puedes comprender completamente los motivos que tenia Abby para matar a Joel y que ademas no fue un camino fácil de recorrer ya que le llevo 4 años encontrarlo.

    Por otro lado Ellie logra desquitar su odio frente a Abby pero la razón por la que la deja ir es simplemente porque entiende que ahora ella es una especie de Joel para Lev.

    Quizá el tiempo le dará la razón a The Last of Us aunque por ahora exista un repudio sin sentido.

    Del resto de los apartados (Gráficos, jugabilidad, ambiente, dificultad) sobra decir que es un trabajo estupendo y que esperamos pueda ser un estándar para los juegos de próxima generación.    … Expand

    Technically, the game is a masterpiece. It has some of the best performances ever seen in the game before. However, where it falters is how it structures its narrative. The game's entire length is not justified by its content by including drawn out sections that could have theoretically worked in delivering its themes but hurts the narrative's pacing in practice.

The game's entire length is not justified by its content by including drawn out sections that could have theoretically worked in delivering its themes but hurts the narrative's pacing in practice.

    The characters, while brilliantly acted with impeccable nuance, are tragically unlikable; an observation that could be attributed to flaws in writing. There is no chemistry between Ellie and Dinah and this permeates to the rest of the character relationships as well.

    The game at least plays better than the first though, but that's not exactly a surprising thing to see. It could have benefited from a few more gameplay innovations though as the gap between the two games feels less than the actual seven-year distance it has.

    But the strongest detriment that ruined my experience is how jarring the narrative dissonance in contrast to its gameplay. For a game that has elevated in technicality that borders on the uncanny valley of realism, to see characters display emotions only in cutscenes and not in gameplay is deeply off-putting and instantly shatters thematic consistency. I hoped that by this time, Naughty Dog - who are well-known as crafted story-tellers in this medium - should have found the way to resolved this ever-living conflict. But I guess we're still far off from that.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am a TLOUS fan and I can only give my most sincere prise to the team. I love distopic stories such as “The Road”or “The Walking Dead” TLOUS2 is just simply a master-piece.

    What I like the most is the astounding scenarios, characters, they way the trolled us in the trailers to not spoil us anything and...how they have changed the way I see the main characters.

    I started hated Abby (Abbigail) for killing Joel while I finished the game loving her (forbiding her for that action) and hating Ellie.

    This video-game toys with you psicology and simply shows how simply you can get killed. In TLOUS2 there are not “Potions”, “Phoenix Down” or super-heroes. They are as much realistic as they can so you will see lots of characters being killed in a very simple and realistic way...that’s life my friends...

    Furthermore, TLOUS2 triesto show the scale of grey colours people have. There are no bad or good people, it is just depends on the side of the coin/team you are seeing.

    It is super-sad that people are complaing about this game because there are LGTBQI+ characters or people of other color or religions. Thanks Naughty Dog for being so brave and create such a master-piece.

    The end is just amazing...    … Expand

    People hated Abby because she killed Joel, but Joel killed her dad. What would you do if someone killed your parent?
    Ellie letting Abby live at the end also makes sense, she's trying to forgive so it doesn't eat at her for the rest of her life.
    Overall fantastic game and ready to play 2nd time through.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Everyone is hating this game because they kill off Joel. But you have to appreciate the game for what it is. A beautiful, dark and twisted revenge story. And nothing else would drive Ellie, or you as the player for that matter to hunt down someone to this length. It was really the only choice and it works brilliantly. As a massive fan of the first game I was devastated by Joel's death. It made me cry I will admit, but it made me realise how dam good the writing is to get that much of a reaction from me. This game is a dark, ponderous reflection of humanity and what hatred can be for motivation. And how that can affect someone afterwards. You have to accept the game for what it is, and not see it as less because what you didn't want to happen happened. This is the best game I have ever played. And that's big as a huge fan of the first game. If you remove expectations for what you wanted the game to be, then you will love it. This is a masterpiece. Graphics are unlike anything i have ever seen and the amazing story has been finally matched with gameplay that does it justice. Well done naughty dog, well done.… Expand

    for me, someone who loved Tlou's story and characters (the gameplay not as much, it needed all the things that this game polishes) this is just perfect. I rate 9/10 only bc there's a detail with the ammo that I don't like: When you improve any guns magazine it doesn't allows you to have more than 12 bullets (regarding to Abbies pistol) so if you improve the gun's mag, you'll still take 10 for me, someone who loved Tlou's story and characters (the gameplay not as much, it needed all the things that this game polishes) this is just perfect.

Makes no sense. Other than that, I just live this game from the very beginning, the load screens, music, designs, levels, guns, aesthetics EVERYTHING! Don't let the bad reviews bring you down form playing this masterpiece. I'm PRAYING for a trilogy, even though the ending doesn't leave any loose ends. May Naughty Dog's survival be long and their death be NEVER...you'll get it when you play it.… Expand

    This is a genuinely well made game. Hats off to ND. Sure, there are sections where the game felt like it was dragging - this happened in the second half, where i wanted to proceed further with the story while the game kept throwing more enemies and levels at me. This is my only complaint. Apart from that, this game is phenomenal.

Joel’s death was gruesome and grim just as it should be—The Last of Us is a terrifying world and the characters are beaten down by it. Anything else would have been doing a disservice to the bleak world NaughtyDog created in the first game. Everyone is entitled to their opinion of course, but I think NaughtyDog went a bold direction and explored what it means to be vengeful, what the cost of violence is, and how even those we grew to love in the first game are flawed and corrupted by the world and what they see around them.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Я в восторге от The Last of Us Part ||, во время прохождения ни одна другая игра (конечно же кроме первой части . ) не давала мне таких эмоций. Геймплей довольно интересен и разнообразен, особенно эта физика и взаимодействия с предметами, когда ты можешь задеть маленький кусочек стекла и он упадёт, заденешь ветку и снег с неё начнёт сыпаться, что очень сильно дополняет и без того хорошую атмосферу. Насчёт навыков, они мне не понравились, от силы только половина из них даёт реальные преимущества, а вторая совершенно бесполезные, да и подобных навыков в играх достаточно много. Стелс здесь хороший, видно что они пытались сделать его разнообразным, но если честно я ни разу не воспользовался дымовыми гранатами во время боя, поэтому он чем-то необычным не отличается, просто не плохой. Очень хорошо чувствуется пистолет и стрельба, благодаря довольно натуральной раскачки оружия, очень громкому и мощному выстрелу, добавили немного новых механик, такие как лассо, плавание на лодке, добавлены новые виды заражённых, что делает геймплей разнообразнее. Вообщем, с технической и геймплейной части, эта игра отлична. А теперь начнём про сюжет, он шедевральный, многие считают что он просто про месть, но это не так, он про то к чему приводит насилие за нисилие, вы рискуете потерять всё что вам дорого, убить тысячи невинных жизней, и стать зверем, чей разум затмён жаждой мести и ничем более. Сейчас начнутся спойлеры, кто не прошёл игру, не читайте дальше.
    Когда нам показали смерть джола, я просто сидел молча с открытым ртом, и у меня по лицу шли слёзы. После это я и вправду хотел мстить. Но когда, мне объяснили все мотивы Эбби, то тут начинается раздвоение, возникает не понимание за кого ты, тут нету плохих и хороших, у всех свои мотивы, за это мне и понравился сюжет, ты сопереживаешь обоим. Naughty Dog отлично показали, что Элли превратилась сама того не замечая, в зверя готового убивать всех ради достижения своей цели. Нам показывают, то что насилие за насилие, приводит к ещё большему насилию, и к потере того кто тебе дорог. А эта замечательная концовка, в которой мы знаём то что главной мотивации отмщения, была тайная ненависть к самой себе из-за того что при жизни она не простила Джоэла за то, что тот спас ей жизнь, а в последний день перед его смертью, она в последний раз оскорбила его. И больше она никогда не сумеет простить его, ведь он мёртв. Поэтому она пытается отомстить с такой сильной ненавистью и оправдаться. Из-за этого у неё на душе чувство недосказанности, которое она навряд-ли когда нибудь сможет заполнить. Я считаю то что тем, кому не понравился сюжет и концовка, не прочувствовали их или не поняли. Всем советую поиграть в этот шедевр (при чём желательно в темноте.) и полностью проникнутся этим сюжетом, ведь он гениален.    … Expand

    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]
