There’s a lot of press about review bombing but in truth it is in fact the voice of the fanbase that naughty dog have just aggrieved by not doing the characters or story justice. Instead we have an empty and satisfying conclusion to one of the most anticipated games on PS4. Truly disappointing.… Expand

    Trash game and false advertisement. They took old Joel from the trailers and made him young Joel as flashbacks in the actual game or switched him out for another character. Good games don't need gimicks to tell a good story. I have no problem with Joel dying, but the scenario was ludicrous and was a slap in the face to true fans of the original.

    People that do not understand why this game actually forces an agenda on the player, probably dont know how subtle they operate and how its transmitted.
    In no game you will find it obviously stated, but it will be portraied with an underlying tone, so that the user might get used to it.
    Showing off transgender/bisexual and so on is not wrong or anything (after all we are all humans with    People that do not understand why this game actually forces an agenda on the player, probably dont know how subtle they operate and how its transmitted.

    Showing off transgender/bisexual and so on is not wrong or anything (after all we are all humans with different tastes and intrests), but the way they are presented plays a big role on why this leaves a bad taste.
    It feels forced, it doesent feel natural. If you are trans/bisexual, so be it, but do not make a big deal out of it, as if its superior or any more noteworthy than a straight guy/girl.
    Actually you do not even have to mention it. It is absolutly meaningless for any sane person anyway, because it doesent mean anything anyway.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game just has such meh gameplay, why does it deserve a 95 for its mediocre gameplay and even outright self insert sex scenes from the director. I think this game does not even closely DESERVES a 95, at most a 70. Why kill off such an important character, like an hour into the game? Why cancel someone’s death, due to leaks? Why let the game leak at all? Completely ruined the one thing this game had going for it; the story. Awful game and Awful motives. Never returning again, EXCEPT to the store.… Expand

    So much for a 10/10 masterpiece.

    It's really hilarious seeing all the fanboys who denied the leaks now upset over the plot.

    Dated gameplay. Ok graphics. Laughable plot.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Alright so where to begin with this game, when it was first announced and the trailers started to circulate it looked solid overall and looked like it was going to be a great sequel to a beloved game. However, as more and more content for the game was shown it was very obvious that this wasn't going to go well. This game is an example of trying to appeal to everyone which isn't necessarily a bad thing but the way it's executed is done poorly, they make large changes to characters that don't make any sense. Joel went from being a well-rounded and cautious individual to essentially saying "yeah lets go into this lodge with these strangers" which was clearly done just so they could kill off the character. Then you have what they do to pretty much every female in the game, they make them buff and look nothing like a female and while I can understand that not every female is going to look like what is considered conventional, but it's jarring when you walk up to what looks like this buff macho dude and then they have the most feminine voice ever. Now it's on to the story, the first half of the game where you play Ellie I'd say is genuinely somewhat enjoyable and things are running fine. The game however takes a sharp turn when Joel meets a 9 iron to the face and the story just turns sloppy. The worst part about this game is the second half where you end up in the shoes of this character that the game tries desperately to get you to like, trying so hard to make you sympathize with the character but it just doesn't work because while some of the actions Joel and Ellie have made are bad, it doesn't take away the players love for the characters. So then it turns into this hatred towards your own character and you're just hoping that she ends up getting killed somehow. Then to top it all off you have the worst thing I think I have ever seen in a game, a self-insert sex scene between Owen (literally the likeness Neil Druckmann) and Abby, it is genuinely disgusting to see and is the cherry on top for one of the worst games of 2020. If you don't care at all about the story, go ahead and try this, you'll get some enjoyment out of it as the game play is ok, but if you're like me and plenty other TLOU fans don't even give this a try.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was a huge fan of the original. I felt it had a perfect balance of left leaning themes that were not so obnoxious as to ruin an amazing story. This one has thrown all caution to the wind and has produced a game that no one who aren't pink haired college students could enjoy.

    Usually, I don't bother to write reviews, I know that most original stories coming out these days will be SJW nonsense, but when you see the sequel to such an engaging IP do this, it's sad. And hypocritical. There is a 'romance scene' in this game that is downright disgusting but Sony will allow that but if a Japanese game has a female character showing cleavage, that's censored. I will not buy a PS5 due to this game and their ridiculous double standards.    … Expand

    Story was boring. Politically correct game if that's what you dig. Combat is similar to the old game. No multiplayer included :( I'd say the single biggest let down of a PS exclusive.

    Despite all the gaslighting, subverting and signalling from this game's cult defenders, the storywriting is objectively a disaster.

It is a cynical, miserable wade through a swamp of violence and cruelty, enacted with a litany of shallow characters whose trail of bodies ultimately lead to a nihilistic ending of despair. It renders the original game pointless, and rewrites loved characters as stupid depictions as a plot device to push frustration and grief onto players.

    Stories without hope or arc, with characters bereft of rationality and motivation, with cheap and cliche scenes, that upset the viewer and leave them appalled, are simply badly written.

    The hubris of Neil Druckmann, with far too much unrestrained creative control, who was more interested in shocking, upsetting and dividing customers with bait and switch and fanfiction-grade nonsense than creating a game that everyone would love. It's simply pathetic, and the worst thing is, he thinks these people will still take seriously anything he ever produces again.    … Expand

    I'm someone who defended the game from the hate it got for the leaks, but after playing through it, I absolutely hate it. It's like they decided to spit on everything the first game stood for. The story was frustrating and unsatisfying, and the ending had no resolve. it's the video game equivalent of getting your sleeves wet while washing your hands. returned for a full refund, theI'm someone who defended the game from the hate it got for the leaks, but after playing through it, I absolutely hate it.

    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]
