    The Last of Us Part II shines through and is destined to be one of the best games ever.
    It is the best movie and the best game, all in one

    The score gap between actual gamers and the fun police says it all.

Anti-fun trash from boring people trying to make games more about current politics than fun and fantasy, praised by an industry of "game journalists" flooded by non-gamer humanities degree failures who don't realize they're just entertainment product reviewers who are only supposed to be appraising how much fun actual gamers will have with the game.

    When "game journalists" (failed art reviewer wannabes) give unanimous perfect scores for political reasons, you can pretty much throw the game in the trash. It's the tedious political "art" that "game journalists" would rather be reviewing than games, since they aren't gamers and don't know how to do their jobs and review an entertainment product for the intended audience.

    Sony's home office needs to go back to Japan and stop listening to California and political fart sniffer "game journalists" who refuse to realize they're just product reviewers.    … Expand

    They present a game that revolves around revenge only so there's no revenge. They pretend that all the characters that died were in vain. Imagine if Kratos forgives Zeus and then goes home to play the guitar? it's a idiot

    Visually, the game is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen. Unfortunately every second with any of the characters in this game is just a miserable experience. TLoU wasn't a feel-good comedy or anything, but the characters had a good balance of charm to get you excited to play through the game to see where the story goes next. In TLoU2, I am dreading every time a cut scene comes on.Visually, the game is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen.

    I don't mind that the gameplay hasn't been overhauled all that much, but the story f this game is just so awful that it feels like a chore to play through. Very disappointed.    … Expand

    Weak game with poorly developed story. But still my score is zero because they had 7 years to develop and it still gets bad like that. Except the gameplay that is very good, but the rest is just more of the same.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is actively miserable to play. Any investment that you have is actively exploited by the game in order to make you feel guilty or depressed. This includes whatever investment the player might have had in The Last of Us, since the characters from that game are completely ruined within this game, both in terms of characterisation, writing and their actual fate within the narrative.

    They removed Joel, a man who learned to find hope amidst a hopeless world by protecting the people he loves, by unceremoniously killing him with a golf club. All the lessons he learned and the new life he had resolved to lead are now completely meaningless, as only a single hour into the game he's just dead. While this creates a powerful emotional catalyst for Ellie, setting her out on this story does nothing but harm her character.

    Ellie herself becomes a nearly emotionless assassin hellbent on getting revenge for Joel's murder. This is not done in a way that makes it any more interesting than the countless revenge stories we've seen before. It's incredibly ham-fisted. But the worst aspect to this design choice is that it sucks more of the fun from the game. Ellie was a bright-eyed, fierce girl with real bite and personality. The player's desire to protect her and see her interact with Joel were the driving force of the plot in The Last of Us. It's why many people put up with the clunkier aspects of the game, the story really patched it up. But now? Joel's dead and Ellie is miserable. The aspect of hope is completely absent in this game, leaving the player with no motivation to continue playing. It is a complete slog to get to the end of this game, and you're constantly left questioning the motives of the developers rather than the motives of the characters. The journey has already committed to being hopelessly grim from the first hour in.

    The new characters in The Last of Us 2 have been pretty harshly criticised, and I would argue that this is completely justified. None of the new characters have stuck with me. Compared to the very natural and realistic dialogue from its predecessor, these new characters feel stiff, emotionless and robotic. Some of them are quirky for no reason and in ways that feels intentionally obtrusive, some of them simply have no personality to speak of, and some of them are simply annoying. Abby in particular is a egregious case, since we spend almost half of the game playing as her, before we even understand why she killed Joel. And in the end it simply turns out that Joel killed her father. Her father was a man that was actively trying to kill Ellie, and Joel killed him to defend her. Meanwhile, Abby killed Joel just because she wanted to. The game demonizes Joel and tries to get us to revaluate his character, but there's really not anything to think about. There is no real moral quandary. Joel killed Abby's father to defend someone he loved. Abby killed Joel because she was bloodthirsty and wanted revenge. Abby is unequivocally a worse person than Joel, which kills a large part of the game's message.

    The reason that the characters behave unnaturally, the setups are so flimsy, the plot holes are so numerous and the world is so hopeless, is because the game has to happen in this way for us to be provided with a message: revenge is bad. Revenge makes you equal to the person you have killed, or it makes you more like them, etc. This is a valuable life lesson for everyone to learn. However, it is something that can be told to you in a far more subtle and understandable way, and is something most people learn when they are 12 years old. This is an 18 rated game. People who have no understanding of basic human morality should not be playing this game, which has full-blown nude sex scenes within it. it treats the player like a young child. The message is also undermined because the gameplay requires you to remorselessly kill hundreds of people to reach the ending, only to be told that killing is wrong. This only makes you view your experiences as even more pointless.

    In the end, Ellie is left completely alone. Joel is dead, her girlfriend and child abandoned her, she didn't take her revenge and simply gave up on Abby, and she can't even play the guitar anymore. She walks off into the distance, solemn and unfeeling. And I am left to stare blankly at the screen and wonder why I was foolish enough to have any emotional attachment to this game whatsoever. The payoff that I was waiting for never came.

    This game accomplishes a 2/10 only by virtue of its stunning technical achievements. The game looks gorgeous and plays serviceably. But if you take out all the aspects of this game that rely purely on budget, this game is left with nothing to stand on. Those things are undercut by being the delivery system for an awful, half-baked, virtue signalling, obnoxious, childlike story with bland and unlikable characters, ridiculous decisions, and an oppressively bleak and grimdark atmosphere.    … Expand

The brutality of humankind is never ending, always reaching. Honestly one of my favorite parts of the game was Ellie's Journal. Fantastic writing that gave great depth into her character. Now with Abby's purpose to show the viewer/player that Ellie and Abby are not good nor bad. We are all **** killing other ****. I will be playing this again and again because the characters and story are addicting and I just love the tone. Endure and survive are out the window… Expand

    As a gamer who loved the first Last of Us and was anticipating this sequel, I have to say that I'm very disappointed. I give it a 1 only because the actors and graphics were phenomenal. These actors made their characters come to life. However, everything else was saddening. The story and characters are boring and forced. I can't believe they released this garbage sequel.

    As a huge fan of TLoU and someone who identifies as queer, this game is a slap in the face. This game cynically weaponizes gender identity to normalize violence against transnormative and homonormative people. A gross misappropriation of LGBT culture by TERFs masquerading as allies. If Neil Druckmann truly wants to be an ally to LGBT culture and queer normative folk he should resign IMMEDIATELY.

    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.
