    The Last of Us Part 1 was an amazing experience that showed the father-daughter relationship between Joel and Ellie in a bleak world with little to no hope; however, part 2 is a cluster f** of **** storytelling.

    for movies I already subscribe to netflix. It is tiring to spend hours and hours walking while the characters talk. The gameplay remains the same as the first ... nothing new nothing interesting.

    Super linear story telling with no massive improvement in terms of gameplay which is repetitive set of ambush created in different scenarios. Poorly written story. Character development is not there at all even for new characters.

Unfortunately none of that is worth it if all that gameplay and effort leads to an awful narrative. We all understand what you were going for. You just didn’t deliver. Let’s be honest. I hope this game becomes an example to all game developers and studios. The majority have spoken.… Expand

    Slap in the face for fans of the first LoU! Yes graphics, sound design, voice acting etc are great. Technically its super impressive BUT the story and the writing are completely abhorrent this time around. This game has none of the charm, heart or soul of the first one. Do not support people that spit on your beloved characters.

    Measuring the original The Last Of Us on 'gameplay' alone it was nothing special. It was a very solid survival horror game. But it was elevated by its engrossing story, its engaging characters and the dynamic between them, and the artistic direction.

    The Last Of Us Part 2 has the same bog-standard gameplay but it now feels worse because gaming has evolved over the years and this game feels stuck in 2013.

    But the worst aspect is that developer has flushed the story and the characters down the pan. The game is a disgusting and miserable slog with horrific violence and cheap shock value masquerading as 'deep subtext'.

    Fans of the original game should avoid this.    … Expand

    Joel just die?
    Wtf
    Joel was a really good character
    The other characters were bad
    And it is because they are bad
    Not because they are LGBT
    Terrible plot
    Second game was better than that

    The Last of Us is still one of my favorite games ever, both history and narrative were the star of the show. I bought a used PS4 so that I could play this game, I've tried to avoid any spoilers that were out, and finally, after waiting for so long...

    Phoned-in plot, poor character choices, very little character development, unlikeable characters, bleak worldview, inconsistent ending - the gaming community deserved better than this, and it's actually surprising coming from a studio that’s delivered so consistently over the years.

Whatever game they were setting out to make, it would have been better to have left this franchise alone if they weren’t going to even attempt to do its story and characters justice (in fact, one gets the impression they were actively trying to do the reverse). Good graphics and game mechanics aren’t enough to save a game so story- and character-based. Does it deserve 0/10? No, not on balance, I can admit that; a score of 0 is an emotional response to the metaphorical middle finger that this game has given the fans who so closely connected with the story and characters of the game. A real shame.… Expand

    First game had so so gameplay but had an interesting story and characters.

    Okay now this game still has so so gameplay but now the story and characters are garbage. It was a chore to finish since nothing was motivating me to go on. The characters don't act like themselves and are just unbelievable.

    Whoever wrote this script needs to be fired.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This was a sequel hyped for damn nearly seven years only to be wasted by LGBTQ propaganda. This is nonsense, a game shouldn’t be tamed with left or right views but rather a good story that invokes a strong sense of attachment for the characters and their development. The anticipation for the sequel was subsequent from the good story telling of the first one. This is just ridiculous, whoever thought this plot was the best idea clearly has not learned from both Game of Thrones and Last Jedi. All of that talent wasted, you best believe I’m not buying Part III and I would like to play as either a female or male. By the way the only good parts of this game were the flashbacks. Congrats Naughty Dog, you just bought me a reason to vote Trump 2020.… 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]
