    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So media is lit writing stories about how not to pay attention to user reviews LOL...
    So ignore the people buying and playing the game.. but keep listening to the crazy echo chamber that has zero to do with the people and only harm you...
    The game is amazing.. As everyone said the story is horrible.. Joel being handled differently might have made me think better but still, its bad. Its awful.. All this game does is offend everyone intentionally.
    Even Trans people should be offended.. They use stereotypes that people whom hate them think of them as..and does not represent most Trans people..and you made violent etc. Its just wrong..all of it.
    There is no way it should have a good score.. I will agree that it should least get 5.0 because everything else was just better from the first, other then, oh I dunno, the entire story/game itself..
    Im still a lil confused at whomever your internal PC voice is because of how they handle the Trans person alone (since they are trying to make it a new thing..) that which they knew on its own would draw controversy.. Why.. That is like being the people who used to say why blacks (kill them first) and no gays..) but they handled even that in a bad way..
    This whole thing is just confusing.
    (Btw these are the people driving all the companies to placate - not really change..so only feeding fires.)
    And again to leave off..media is lit writing stories about how "WE" should not be paid attention too..
    I'm saying they handled all things poorly..including PC things.. I guess your going to take my Black card too?    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Gameplay and the story was fine. The reason why I chose to give this game a bad review is because of Naughty Dog's false advertising to make us believe that Joel was alive in their trailer with the fake scene with him.
    Joel being killed off is hardly an issue to me. If anything, they could obviously not be accused of fan service because of what they did and we could sympathize with Ellie's anger throughout most of the game. However, Naughty Dog obviously chose to change the story last minute and chose to kill him off after releasing a trailer showing Joel being alive and joining Ellie, which explains the multiple delays.
    Instead, what we have is Naughty Dog deceiving us with false advertising from their trailers and Neil Druckmann had the audacity to mock our massive negative reviews for the game.
    Even though I've heard that spoilers were released, I've chosen to avoid them, like how spoilers are occasionally released for other games, movies, and TV shows.
    Naughty Dog should be investigated by the FDA and should be sued for false advertising because I'm sure there are many of us who have chosen to not see the spoilers and who are also upset that Naughty Dog sold us a lie.    … Expand

    Good graphics, great music, horrible story(and no it's not BOLD it just sucks), and boring game-play.
    this game had so much potential but naughty dog decided to allow an SJW to write the script and it's blatantly obvious, and the developers were just lazy, improving on nothing but graphics.
    do not buy this game. just watch someone else play it, your day will still be ruined for less money.

    From a gameplay/graphics perspective TLOU2 is unrivaled. That being said the story pulls no punches and will leave a lot of people upset.

    You can ruin this way.
    Anyway, Joel and Ellie are the main characters.

    revenge? Hatred?
    So what

    Why are you trying to teach users?

    Are users trying to enjoy the game at the expense of this?

    Our last ip is also dead, and we can't expect a bad dog anymore.

    way to ruin a good game with some forced edgy plot with the most bland characters and choices. Nothing even makes sense.

    1) the game is incomplete as it lacks the mp component which made the first game great
    a newer product should never have less features than the first product.
    2) the game is pretty, but the story is horrible and hamfisted.

    this game deserves all the fan backlash it is getting and hopefully it taints the studio and the creatives behind in as to never develop anything again.

    Boring gameplay (push the button 3 times to get a combo, and excessive quicktime events) neat cinematics, recycled inside scenarios, a dumb story (like... for real, you can get better fanfics on Wattpad) and a short time to beat (25hours but 7 hours of cinematics) please don't waste your money

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The graphics and music are incredibly stunning, along with the combat and animations. I personally felt the story was weaker compared to the first game but it was still enjoyable to me. I personally extremely liked the fact that you play as both Abby and Ellie. It really put into perspective both sides of the coin for me. This game works best if you try and come at this neutral; with an open mind.

    I like the way they tell the story. I saw many critics on the second main character Ebby, which is totally a fully reveal of the hatred against those women who have a body image which doesn’t fit the Standard norm....
    Shame on those player community who show such disrespect.

    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]
