    I’ve been waiting 5 years for this and I can’t tell you how disappointed I am. I can’t believe the creators of the original game created this one. The story-telling was just dreadful and the fighting system was similar to the original but was overall monotonous.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I believe that in most offline games the story is more important than anything else. In The Last of Us: Part II the graphics were amazing, game-play was slightly better than the first game, but the story... It was just so disappointing, The last of us is Joel and Ellie, this isn't the last of us anymore. Ellie lost everyone around her and I had to wait 3 years to see that happen. Never in my life have I called a game "disappointing" but this fits the tittle, I seriously wish I never played this game… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let’s first start off by saying that this is a good game worth playing. The sound, art, music, voice acting, characters and graphics are all spectacular. And the story is pretty damn good too. It feels like a natural progression of the first game, even if I don’t 100% agree with some decisions made in the story. There are a lot of flashbacks that it kind of takes you out of the game. Also, you can spend so much time walking around to find stupid items that have absolutely no effect on the game and the puzzles get old quickly. I will say that combat is good enough and the enemy/allies AI is pretty amazing. My biggest problem with this game is you play as a character named Abby for a good half of the game. I like Abby as a character and her story is really good. But no matter how much you play as her you never fully embrace her because of a choice she makes a little less than a quarter into the game. Her character/story would have made for a perfect spinoff game in my opinion. Overall this game is good and worth the time. And contrary to other reviews, this game doesn’t try to push an agenda or try to be some SJW propaganda. Anyone who makes that claim has not played the game at all, or at least finished it.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ужасная история! Ужасная игра! Там настолько все пропитанно феминизмом и "сильными женщинами", что среди лошадей в игре есть только кобылы. Где мужеподобная страшная баба убивает всем полюбившегося героя в первые часы игры. Персонажа просто сливают в унитаз, как и весь адекватный сюжет. Геймплейно ничего кардинально не поменялось, разве что он стал более однообразным и унылым. Были забавляющие мелочи вроде трясущегося словно мошонка рюкзака (в собаках вообще видели как ткань ведет себя в реальной жизни?) Глюков со снегом, тупым ИИ, и прочими вещами. Страшные как моя жизнь персонажи, чего только стоят эти азиаты, меньшинства и НОСИЩЕ беременная-лесба. Сюжетные повороты в стиле "Ой Джоеля убивают на моих глазах плохие люди, я вас всех убью! Ой нееет!" И пам, она уже просыпается в своей кроватке, естественно ее никто не тронул, нам же еще за нее играть. Я дропнул игру после нескольких часов, стало просто невыносимо терпеть тупость тамошнего сюжета, и всей творческой импотенции авторов, в их жалких попытках угодить меньшинствам и выехать на повестке феминизма, заправив туда дегенеративную мораль про МЕЕЕСТЬ. Нила Даркмана нужно гнать ссаными тряпками! Этот бездарный еврей слил всю серию, выпустил свою "Андромеду" от мира Одни из Нас. И всех кто причастен к этому дерьмовому сюжету!… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Visually it really is a beautiful game, stunning scenery and detail in every shot. But I’m afraid anyone who enjoyed the story and characters of the first game will be sorely disappointed with the direction of this one. It seems as though the team at naughty dog have taken it upon themselves to look at everything positive from the first one and flip it on its head. The Story choices just seem bizarre and nonsensical, having a certain beloved character be beaten to death by the most macho woman I’ve ever seen and then have to play as said character just made me want to quit right there, playing as Abby was horrendous after killing Joel I Had no sympathy for the character no emotional connection, I just can’t get my head round why the people at naughty dog thought this would be a good idea. All in all visually it’s beautiful but I’m afraid that’s it’s only redeeming quality because everything else truly stinks, I just feel sorry for fans who’ve waited over 7 years for something that is truly terrible.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm so disappointed with this overpriced horror show. A complete deconstruction of the first game and the characters you developed a connection to therein. Just a complete brutality to basically every character new and old, and the whole franchise's reputation.

    Joel announcing his name to a group of strangers he already seemed suspicious of despite knowing that people could be looking for him after what he did was so forced and out of character. Ellie walking in on Joel getting beaten to death, GUN IN HAND, and not immediately shooting Abby was also incredibly ooc. Poor writing, not just in the overall story but also in terms of the characters is literally used as a gratuitous stepping stone, AKA a shameless excuse to get to all of the brutal, gorey violence.

    Noy to mention it ends in a bleak way with no silver lining at all. Compare that to the way the first one, while bleak in nature still had its nice moments. Its moments of "ya know what maybe this hellscape is worth sticking around for." But this game? I'd get more enjoyment shoving fingernail clippings up my a** hole.

    Don't get me wrong, I expected it to be bleak. The tone of the game is post-apocalypse. It revolves around death and the ugliness of man and yes yes it's all very grim. That kind of prepares you for how this isn't going to be a totally happy story. But everything they built up and established in the first game is just burned to the ground.

    All the gameplay is basically the same as the first with some exploration buffs and NPC tweeks, companion AI feels clunkier now but a lot of the interactions between your people and between enemies outside of cutscenes feels very fluid and natural. That said, a lot of the stuff that's good about the game is done in flashbacks to when Ellie was younger. The actual current story they're telling had potential but the executuion is poor.

    The game is trying so hard to get a specific reaction while blowing holes in why and how you should feel that way. We are supposed to empathise with Abby just because we are exposed to her when we're forced to play as her? We are supposed to think bad of Ellie when she killed Mel after Mel attacked her first instead of just pleading "I'm pregnant!"?

    Abby killed the man that saved her life brutally and mercilessly. She wasn't able to empathise at all with why Joel might have done what he did, but you are expected to empathise with her? She even goes on to have a similar, protective sort of relationship with Lev as Joel did with Ellie. Maybe not in a parental way, but the parallels are still there. It really could have been a good story had they spent more time on the gap years rather than jumping straight a timeskip and Joel's very premature death.

    All of this and the fact that the ending is not at aaaaall worth it makes this feel so incredibly soulless. They wanted to go down the route of "is there really a good guy in this kind of world?", and that idea could be incredible. But then they butcher the execution. Force you to play as the character who beat Joel to death for a massive portion of the game, and leave off with a terrible ending.

    Ellie stated in the first game that she's most afraid of ending up alone, and they did that to her. She suddenly realises that killing is wrong after slaughtering countless men and women to get to this moment with Abby. She is in the middle if drowning her and suddenly lets her live. This woman killed Joel, almost killed Dina. In fact, upon hearing that Dina was pregnant from a battered and bleeding Ellie, she says "Good.", and proceeds to almost slit her throat only that Lev stops her. But Ellie suddenly forgets all of that and lets her leave.

    Ellie goes back to Dina only to find she has left already, goes into a room and sees her guitar in its case. She pulls it out and learns she can no longer play the way Joel showed her all those years ago because she had her fingers bitten off during the struggle with Abby. She props the guitar up by the window, almost as if in memory of the man who taught her to paly, and leaves it behind. She has no use for it now. Ellie walks through the field outside, alone. Joel dead. Tommy partially paralysed but his characterisation definitely got massacred. Dina gone. Cut to credits. Game over.

    There isn't even a slither of happiness in this game. Was the lesson "revenge is bad"? Because if so, they should have rolled the credits as soon as Abby killed Joel and told players "if that made you uncomfortable, do not seek revenge." In big writing before rolling the credits.
    Either way the ending would leave you shifting uncomfortably with a bad taste in your mouth.

    Neil Druckman should be ashamed of the false advertising via trailers and "10/10" reviews that sprouted up after all of the leaks. Just wait for how quickly the price drops on the PS Store to see how poorly it did. And even when it's cheap, don't subject yourself to this trashfire.    … Expand

There are several new characters none of which are particularly likable and some who are straight up detestable. Gameplay wise, not much has actually changed from the first game, despite what trailers had led us to believe. Above all, the main problem with this game, is even describing it as a game. Calling it a game suggests there is some level of enjoyment to be had from playing it. When in reality The Last Of Us Part 2 is a thoroughly unpleasant experience all round. I wasn't even sure how to rate this experience. a 0 might seem like i'm just another person trying to "troll" the game (a term seemingly used only when people disagree with your personal dislike of something and a way for them to try invalidate said opinion) but it came down to this. Is there ANYTHING about this game that i feel would make me want to go through "playing" it again? would i recommend it to someone who might enjoy it even if i didn't? sadly the answer to both of those questions is no. The Last Of Us Part 2 is poorly written, with no significant gameplay changes, but above all is simply not a pleasant experience to slog through. Fortunately my old house mate works for Sony so i didn't have to pay to "play" this game.… Expand

They absolutely spit on the legacy of their series, their fans, and their beloved characters. Joel, the most untrusting, cunning, and cautious person, allows a bunch of **** goons to sneak up on him, then proceeds to allow them to kill him with a **** golf club without fighting back whatsoever. Then Ellie, a girl who's murdered entire villages, does not avenge his death after going through absolute hell to get the chance to, and allows the **** character which is Abby to get away. It's like the writers were on crack when they wrote their beloved franchise into the ground.

    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.
