    My name is Elik, I'm from Russia. The last of us 2 is that game from not many games which takes for the soul! I have never experienced such a range of emotions. The game made me look at revenge from the other side and I am sincerely grateful to the developers who put their soul into the game and brought me a lot of pleasure! Thank you so much! Спасибо!!!

    the game is a very good successor ignoring the critics of loa haters without reason it is a very good game in gameplay and many more aspects that make it one of the best ps exclusive but what I do say is that even if it has several errors that does not mean that it is a bad game

    Loved it. Don’t agree with the ending, but every other aspect is phenomenal. This game has to be experiencer solo, which is why for the first time ever, the critics are right and the youtube streamers are wrong.

    The game is awesome. I don't care what you guys say but it is. If you could understand what the story meant maybe you wouldn't feel like it. I mean the whole reason for Ellie's quest is symbolic. If you don't like this game at least for its story, I don't know what to say

    This is a great sequel and worthy of your time,from gameplay to story and everything in between .Lots of negative reviews posted within 5 or 6 hours yet it’s a 20 to 30 hour game ,so obviously trolls and haters on here .Solid 10/10 from me.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us give you a lot different feelings, and can make you angry, sad, etc. But the story and the anti-revenge message would be more poweful if Ellie killed Abby in the ending and abandoned the girl in the boat, and after that returned to home without any friends, and wife, and family.
    So the game is a masterpiece, in graphics and history, but pay $60 dollars for it isn't worth    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Over all those issues, I’d like to rate this game 10 out of 10. I loved to be Ellie and follow her emotions. Users can find lots of scenes that reminds them about the part1&dlc. The graphics&guitar sound was awesome. Also the enemy’s AI(with various action while searching&fighting)and fighting actions were cool. Increased useable weapons were interesting. Also while the adventure time, users can do lot more actions (like using rope, jumping around, and etc.) than we did in part1. The idea this game wants to tell us about was great. Playing this game with some open-minded heart will give you the best experience.



    — SPOILER ALERT FROM THIS PART—



    I understand why people get mad about the story. Joel’s death made them not just “angry”, but more. Just like Ellie did. It was definitely directors’ mistake that they didn’t realize how much people do care about Joel and how much they’ll gonna be frustrated. Directors should’ve notice that user’s anger won’t lead them to “be Ellie”, but lead them to stop the game and score the lowest. But I can also understand why the story happened like that. I didn’t searched about the leaks, so during the playtime was the time when I knew Joel’s gonna be die. The sadness, anger, frustration, and all of my emotions... while I was looking on Ellie’s face... it made me to be her. But yeah, if I’d heard about the leak(that Joel gonna die, and not just dying, but with a golf club.), I won’t be able to enjoy the game like i’m doing now. I’ll start the game with full of anger about Joel’s fate and thinking about this game is a total **** or I’ll just enjoy the part1 over and over, not buying this game, making my own story of Joel&Ellie. I totally understand why users are so upset about this game, but I also think that if there wasn’t the leak, user’s score won’t be that low. Without a prejudice, people might be angry(with the same rage as now) but also they could be able to immerse themselves in a story. By linking themselves with Ellie, by being her.

    About the ending, I totally agree with the directors. Make Ellie kill Abby, just like the users wanted to, but then what? Will the revenge make Ellie feel better? Is that really an answer? There was always an “unusual” endings in this series. In part1, Joel’s selfish decision was the ending(to say in a bad way). But why not this time? I loved the idea what this game wanted to say. It’s painful thing to accept that idea, but I did.

    I’m Korean, so I don’t know how international users think about LGBTQ+ and any other issues in this game, but I do know that it made some of Korean users get mad. But is that really a thing to be mad just because you can’t shoot Jewish thing, main character is a gay, and the Queer flag is in the game... Like, for REAL?? I think some angers go to the wrong way, not make them to be Ellie but be some socially-mentally immature people. It can’t be a reason or an excuse to rate this game low. I think the game made a society where we are living right now. Sure there’s no infected, but there’s various people living with us. Some users should see the character/people not as their identity, but just as a human.

    The gameplay was great just as I wrote it in the intro. I hope people could see this game not with some colored glasses.    … 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]
