    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. un juego que cae en la inclusividad forzando un personaje trans y desprestigiando un personaje querido por todos, matándolo de una forma absurda que rompe con las bases que planteo en la primera entrega, como opinión personal cuando algo rompe o contradice lo planteado por si mismo todo lo que continuo carece de sentido y arruina todo lo demás, esto no puede ser aceptado en un juego que se basa en la narrativa ademas de lo inclusivo que trata de ser sin importar nada parece ser un juego feminista, lgtb y todas esas idea, duele mucho.
    si bien joel no era un personaje muy bueno no merecía morir de esa forma, no tengo idea de como es que aprobaron esa idea, el personaje inclusivo pudo ser aceptado de mala gana pero aceptado, el problema es que lo trataran de esa forma y trataron de darle mas valor haciendo que mate de una forma tan humillante a un personaje tan querido para mi arruinaron todo si bien visualmente y en base a la jugabiidad están bien, no siento que sea una secuela digna y pagar por algo mal echo no vale la pena seria incluso contraproducente por que las demás empresas pensaran que eso esta bien y tienen que hacerlo para sobresalir. Una decepción total ya que si lo vas a jugar por el mundo visual que ofrece te recomiendo mil veces jugar fallout o ahorrar ese dinero que tenias planeado para comprar el the last of us 2 esperar y comprar la siguiente entrega de the elder scrolls que presenta o presentara un mundo mucho mejor en base al disfrute del mismo en ves de comprar este que se supone que te tiene que dar una narrativa que disfrutes y te atraiga al final solo terminaras jugando con un ceño fruncido durante todo el tiempo molesto por lo que te presentaron mejor ahórrate esos problemas de enojo, monetario y para el hígado ( dependiendo de como seas jugando lo que si estarás molesto independientemente de como seas temperamentalmente). Como conslusion no te recomiendo para nada el juego no vale ni gratis y si ya tienes una copia mejor realiza un vídeo destruyéndolo y consigues mas disfrute ya sea ganando algo de dinero subiéndolo a una plataforma de vídeos o mostrando la destrucción del juego a tus amigos lo disfrutaras mas.

    The game is full of activism and the goal is to show the mentality of the developers.
    Absurd graphics, very good gameplay, really cool semi-open scenery, but the really bad story worthy of an Oprah Winfrey program.

    The game may not be as great as the first version, but it's unique in its kind. You feel hatred in the game and you want revenge. In the game, each character gives himself the right to do whatever he wants from his own point of view
    In the end, it should be noted that this game did not need to pay so much attention to Ellie homosexuality

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Have read many many comments on Metacritic which share similar sentiment. I actually agreed completely while reading them but then the approach ND took clicked for me. While not executed well - their whole point with this game was to reinforce in this dystopia there is no good or bad, and that even though we perceive Ellie and Joel to be 'better' than other characters ultimately everyone is just trying to survive the same as them. The love all fans have for Joel is supposed to initially cause outrage when he is killed by this random character and then the actions of Ellie in the pursuit of revenge are slowly supposed to open our eyes to the fact that even the most beloved characters can turn into monsters. I 'think' we are supposed to begin questioning Abby's own past before we flashback to her story and then begin sympathising with her character before the final outcome of the story.

    This is poorly done by ND for a number of reasons:
    1. They underestimated how great the bond between most fans and Ellie/Joel was. Further to this they underestimated peoples idea of what Joel and Ellie's characters are. Many people complained about Ellie not being Ellie in this game. Initially I would have agreed but after some thought I now understand ND were trying to show history repeating itself the same way it did for Joel with Sarah's death. The failure with this is there WAS NOT a strong support to replace Ellie, which left the game feeling empty throughout.
    2. They forced political correctness into the equation for no reason. Flavour of the month LGBT characters were so unnecessarily present in this game. Multiple times conversations can be heard from side characters talking about their L/G lovers. I have absolutely no issue with presenting any of the characters in this way but when 90% of the romantic relationships being displayed are non-straight it feels almost like ND were trying (and failing) to be satirical and takes away from the story.
    3. The order of execution was not done correctly, at all. LOU 1 had an absolutely insane beginning to the game. 15-20 minutes of game play then BAM! Huge curveball, Sarah is dead and Joel is crushed. Fade to black and BOOM we are 10 years down the line. By comparison this game gave away the spoiler before it happened without any kind of reasoning as to why it happened. I spent over an hour after Joel was killed wondering when he was going to jump out on Ellie and yell - "Surprise!", only to be sorely disappointed. But that doesn't mean the story was bad, just that it was poorly told. Imagine the same events happening in a different order: Fade in, backstory about whats happened the last few years with Joel and Ellie, Joel and his brother prepare to go on patrol (same as any other day), run into this stranger while on patrol, save her and head to where she has made camp as its only way they'll survive. SURPRISE! She actually came out looking to kill him all along. Now we play out largely the same story from here. Ellie gets in a standoff with this mysterious stranger. Stranger SHARES her story with Ellie while still in standoff. We continue on from there. Maybe leave in the option for Ellie to kill or spare Abby at the end (really depends if a game 3 is being setup or not from ND perspective though). But holy **** how much better would the exact same plot be in this case???
    4. Also: Scrap the Ellie x Dina stuff, scrap the stuff with Abby and Owen. The love stories were both sold so poorly with nowhere near enough buildup (and more importantly, no-one cared anyway). Small references through dialogue could have achieved the exact same effect. This isn't an anti LGBT thing, its anti poor story telling. LOU1 had hints with Joel and Tess that were so much more effective because they were subtle, heck even Ellie with her female friend/crush in the DLC was done better than this - and that was DLC, content deemed not good enough to be in the main game!

    Anyone who took the time to read this, much appreciated. Hopefully I've helped others also see the game a little more sympathetically. Sadly the reality is a game with alot of potential, that falls short where it matters most, the story. I gave 6 as I think less than this is an insult to the team of creators of which most (maybe even all) 'tried' to make an amazing sequel but miscalculated slightly. I hope if a 3rd game does come they will return to the storytelling approach from the first game.

    Let me be as clear as possible, this may be the worst sequel to a video game iv ever played. The characters, terrible. The story, even worse. The only good quality this game poses is its graphics, I play on the oldest model of PS4 and it looks awesome. Other than that, bad game.

    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 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.

    With that said, lets begin and talk about whats really really problematic in this game.
    Its the inconsistancy of the characters. The characters do not behave the way from what we have learned about them in the first game. This is why the user gets the idea that the story is forced.
    When a story is forced and you sacrifice any logical character development for it (just to make a point), its only right to see a specific motive behind it that far exceeds the game itself alone. It is then influenced heavily by the authors "own view" no matter what came before it.
    Thats a death sentence for any book, story or whatever.

    The game itself plays like any other Naughty Dog that came before it. Many cutscenes, areas with a narrow path, heavily story driven. Unfortunatly the story is nothing worthwhile and i do not recommend it.

To dumb down a character just for the sake of having him lead into a trap.. Lying that the leaks were fake isn't a good way to keep business neither. I'll never buy a naughty dog game again.

Since the first hour of the published I have been playing Part II and I was in a great mood ...All combat mechanics, local character ...As a "negative" point, I can say that we had to play a large part with Abby and Joel had to die at the beginning. Otherwise I liked everything and I enjoyed it. I'm already looking forward to the next game ... Expand

    This game is a masterpiece, It's so rare to talk about the human being in a video game, however, the perfect narrative gets supported with perfect graphic, perfect body gesture, and perfect voice actors.

    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]
