    ND: Wow wtf!? Ellie's really a **** up person isnt she?

    Abby: tortures Joel after saving her life, kills jessie, cheats repeatedly with Owen, beats the **** out and attempts to murder a knowingly pregnant Dina, thinks she kills Tommy, attempts to murder Ellie. All of this done with smiles on her damn face.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. No entiendo como joel después de todo pudo confiar en un desconocido y para colmo seguirla a su grupo sin nisiquiera tomar precaución.
    Le dieron una de las muertes más tontas y simples que he visto a un personaje tan legendario como es joel.
    No sentí simpatía por abby después de lo que hizo.
    Me quedo con los flashbacks de ellie que para mí es lo que salva el juego, al igual que el gameplay, gráficos, detalles y la nostalgia.

    ¿ellie mató a un montón de personas que no le hicieron nada personal (que seguramente tenían una historia al igual que abby) para al final dejarla vivir?
    No me queda más que decir XD    … Expand

    In the game, trans teenager Lev escapes from a religious cult after he shaves his head and risks being killed by his family. Throughout the game, he experiences physical, emotional, and religious violence and is deadnamed on more than one occasion.

Throughout the game, he experiences physical, emotional, and religious violence and is deadnamed on more than one occasion.

    In 2017, Naughty Dog environmental artist David Ballard accused an unnamed lead developer of sexually harassing him in late 2015. Ballard said he told Sony and Naughty Dog about the sexual harassment, and was quickly fired and offered $20,000 to keep silent. Naughty Dog denied these allegations.

    During the production of The Last of Us 2, Naughty Dog compelled its developers to follow a grueling crunch production schedule. This mistreatment of employees led to a miserable, unhealthy work environment where 14 of the original 20 non-lead designers involved with Uncharted 4—or 70 percent—left the studio.

    Naughty Dog are an abusive employer that have wrapped themselves in a thin gauze of wokeness and rainbow-flag social media banners.

    I give their latest crunch labor product 2 points out of 10, because it boots and can be watched from beginning to end without any showstopping bugs. Also, that is how many fingers Ellie has left.    … Expand

    The main character does not cause anything but disgust right from the first minutes. At the very beginning, a huge plot hole. The gameplay has not changed much from the first part. Stealth is terrible. The game is not that it is not revolutionary; it did not do anything surprising even for this generation. Hype is not justified.

It is indeed first and foremost a political statement, shilling for progressive agenda by means of video games. How else could you explain forced LGBT themes that make literally NO sense in such a game? Gender reassigment surgeries in a post apocalytpic world, really? Graphics and world designs are OK but stroy and charatcers are terrible. Don't buy this game unless you want to have progressive & woke crap showed up your throat.… Expand

    The only pros to this game are the average feeling stealth and shooting gameplay mechanics. And even those are laughable. For example, you can go prone in the middle of a firefight and the enemies are too stupid to react to it and be able to see you.

    The graphics are probably the best part of this game. The world design and graphics are phenomenal!

    The sound design is also fantastic!

    Overall... This game is essentially a polished piece of you know what... I give this game a 2/10. A video game has to be more than just looking and sounding pretty. A video game is a piece of art and is there to immerse you into a world and make believable and memorable characters and stories and... This game fails to do that in every way, shape, or form...    … Expand

    If you haven’t purchased yet, save your money. I wish I would have listened to all the reviews from users prior to wasting my money.

    User ratings are painfully accurate, critics ratings prove they are fake. Most gave this game a 10 out of 10,. Which couldn’t be further from fact.

    This game Fully ruins its franchise and characters in one fail swoop, making it one of the dumbest decisions I’ve seen in a game. I’m surprised they slapped the fans in the face with such a disrespect to the first game. This is not a game to purchase if you enjoyed the first Tlou

    The gameplay alone is enough to give this game a 1 even without the horrendous story. The gameplay is only slightly better than it was in the first game and that gameplay was outdated then.

Subverting expectations is a cheap and lazy way of storytelling.

    They have completely destroyed Ellie and Joel's story with this abortion. Druckmann should make a PREQUEL that involves Joel meeting Tess and details their adventures/misadventures. This world's present and future is finished, though.

    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.
