    TLOU2 is basically TLOU1's gameplay and setting, with the idea of "What if none of us could make a story without training wheels," - and it turned out the training wheels were jammed.

Joel did not deserved to be brutally murdered like that. Joel did not kill abby’s father out of anger or hate. (Not to mention joel gave her father a nice and quick death) Another thing is the awful game design … Expand

    They cry about major events happening too early, "the game barely started", and forget completely about the fact that it's not it's own story but a direct continuation of where the first one left of.
    They keep referencing the first game but dont seem to remember absolutely anything from it. Joel and Ellie have more than just a farther and dauther relationship. They've saved each other's lives countless times.
    You are mad at Joel's death. Ellie hates Abby. You are supposed to hate Abby.
    This is not a happy sunshine trip down to Lala-land. It's bloodthirsty vengence crusade. There are no villains here, no hero's. Only one's justice.
    Take PewDiePie for example, the game opens where the first one ended and he acts surprised barely remembering the ending, whenever gay Ellie stuff comes up he goes "ew" and turns away.
    Gay Ellie was established in TLOU and Left behind, it's nothing new but now its beeing called SJW trash and political.
    I've yet to see this 'political' stuff everyone talks about. Then Mr. Pie goes on to just completely ignore the story and talks over everything while just trying to whore over the graphics.
    No one could enjoy the story this way.
    If this is the average player base it's no wonder its receiving such negative reviews.
    Alzheimer bigots and racists plague the reviews and most of em probably dont even own the game or don't remember the first one and just follow the big man's lead of hating on it.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is, by far, the worst game that I have EVER played.
    Let this statement sink in.

    I have been playing video games for over a decade now. PlayStation 1, PlayStation 2, GameBoy, N64 up to this date. It is mind-blowing because I never felt the urge to create an account just to rate a game bad. I thought that everything has it's own reasons, but this game is different.

    While TLOU1 is a masterpiece by itself with incredible storytelling, great character development, and an emotional connection, TLOU2 became like GoT Season 8. Something that should have NEVER existed like that in the first place.

    If I wanted to play revenge with **** storytelling, I would've played GTA Online because no story is better than this piece of garbage. They not only killed Joel "just like that" with an absolutely trash story leading up to that, they also turned a great character like Ellie into a one-dimensional revenge-seeking character that can't be seen as anything else but that.

    The most ridiculous part are the "journalists" that are rating this game as an absolutely masterpiece. It is an absolute dumpster fire and it shows what's wrong with gaming journalism. Unreliability.

    There has been a Korean streamer who's reaction sums up the game perfectly. He put the disc out, got a scissor, and just cut the disc. This is TLOU2.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The inclusiveness of this game is the least of its problems. I did not care Ellie was a lesbian in the first game and it didn't bother that Abby is transgender, even though it feels a bit forced. My problem is that everything that had a meaning in the first game, doesn't have one anymore in this one. I feel like Neil just gave us a huge slap in the face with Joel's unnecessary death and how pointless it was. This game made want to quit when we were forced to play as Abby right after killing Joel and the having to fight Ellie. The ending was the worst I've ever experienced and made me feel like Ellie's entire journey had no meaning after forgiving Abby for literally killing everything she loved and letting her go. I'm tremendously disappointed and heartbroken. The jump button was basically useless and the visuals were fantastic, which saddly is the only good thing about this game.

    The last of us should never have had a sequel, not like this.

I know that ND games are more inclined towards the story but this game’s story is just......bland. The characters you knew in the first game feel so different from what they were. It’s like they are copies of the original. The game also also lets you play as another character after 10 to 12 hours in the game. This feels so out of the blue that it kinda takes you out of the game. The ending is...underwhelming. It is anti climactic. I will let you guys figure out the rest. Disappointing.    … 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]
