    the storyline this all **** up

    the main characters die in seconds and never talk of them again like have no relevant any more at the end of the day

    didn't focus on the immunity of Ellie

    this looks more a standalone that a continuation of the first game

    This is how you don't do games. Looks like a rushed idea to publish this monster with uncompleted story, broken gameplay and politics every corner.
    I'd rather play the old game again for this price, than this abomination. Indie devs can do better.

    Gameplay is not bad, but not as good as it should've been after these years.
    Story is dull and just bad, it is disappointing after the magnificent part I.
    The characters were went to the wrong direction in the script.
    Graphics are marvelous, they did do a miracle with this crappy console.

    I must say that I did not play, did not watch streams / walkthroughs of the first TLOU. TLOU 2 is almost perfect in everything: pleasant gameplay, fights and their staging, well-designed locations; seriously, I have not seen a single game where the locations would be so diverse and with so many details.

TLOU 2 is almost perfect in everything: pleasant gameplay, fights and their staging, well-designed locations; seriously, I have not seen a single game where the locations would be so diverse and with so many details. So the question is, how can you make the game’s so miserable plot and mutilate old characters that people love so much that even I sat with Spanish shame from all it? I adhere to the fact that this is all just a crazy fanfiction of Neil Druckmann and Anita Sarkeesian. But to my great regret, the studio simply does not have the courage to admit the project as unsuccessful and, for example, to reissue the second part with a new plot. One can only hope that they will not develop the third part, or stop following the SJW community (which does not even play games), Neil gets off the crocodile (or what does he accept there?) and releases an adequate third part. Although even if we hope for the most positive, then the **** with which they smeared the first part and the fans just can not be washed away even by the ideal in the whole third game.

    By the way, Anita Sargsyan writes about the fanfiction of the TLOU dissatisfied with the plot of the continuation(crossed out) funfiction: “And honestly I'm putting aside that they haven't even played the game yet and have been hyped through all the years of released teasers. They just wanna be mad. They are sad. They probably hate themselves. And hate their lives and believe that gives them license to hurt others.” Why fall even lower in the eyes of the public writing such nonsense?    … Expand

    Personally, I think this game ticks all the boxes. The gameplay is amazing, the graphics are the best in this generation, and the story is jam-packed with emotion. 10/10 from me.

    They ruined the game, a stupid and poorly made story, made with the ass, all the male characters in the game are stupid and portrayed as imbeciles, nor will I say what Joel had to give in exchange for a cup of coffee, besides it has a lot of hatred for Christianity and leftist ideology of the game, the player almost doesn't play with Ellie, you spend almost the entire game controlling the Blonde-Hulk that the game is forcing you to accept that she is right, the worst game of the generation, dispenses with more comments    … Expand

    Could have been the best game of all time, but it suffered from a bad narrative.
    I got the game early, I liked the world, but hated every character in it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A lot of people came onto here to express how they hate all the "left wing propaganda" but honestly grow up and review the game for what it is. The gameplay is enhanced significantly with many things that felt missing from the first game like the ability to go prone and have more jumping sections. This game has many deep themes with i'm not sure most players have picked up on. I see a lot of people say that the story makes absolutely no sense and that they don't understand why Ellie would not kill Abby in the ending, These people OBVIOUSLY didn't play and finish the game because it was quite obvious as to why she did what she did. The WHOLE GAME was building to that point. The message is that everyone is the same and everyone has different experiences. There is no justice in the apocalypse. There is no right and wrong. That one is especially important as that is what Ellie has to come to terms with and learn throughout the 30 hour experience. She comes to understand that Ellie and Abby are the same, both attempting to get justice and revenge in an unfeeling, cruel world where neither exist. Alongside the story of Ellie coming to forgive Abby, she comes to forgive Joel. Throughout the game she has flashbacks to her time with Joel, the good and the bad. And she comes to understand why he did what he did. At the same time she is trying to understand what kind of person could do that to Joel and as she finally comes to terms with Joel's decision she realises that she is the exact same as Abby. She understands that killing Abby will no longer achieve anything because what she really wanted was not revenge, but acceptance. Since Ellie has finally accepted her past with Joel and what her life means, she knows that killing Abby will only continue the cycle of revenge and death and not achieve anything. THE WHOLE GAME HAS BEEN BUILDING TO THIS POINT OF SEEING ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE. The game is literally built for this purpose. We have 50% Ellie, 50% Abby. Two women who desperately want to kill the other. We play as BOTH and, at least I did, feel for both characters. I was genuinly invested in the characters of Owen, Mel, Abby and Lev in the second half and when I came to one of the later missions where I find the corpses of both characters alongside the corpse of the lovable dog you've been playing with the whole game I felt huge remorse and sadness because I know that I KILLED THEM only a few hours ago. Not only this between the two leads, but between the main characters and every other enemy in the game. Any time you kill someone in a group in front of someone else, another enemy will shout "NOOO SARAH" or something similar, indicating that Wolf or Seraphite that you just killed had a name, friends, family and relationships with those around them and you just ended that in a push of a button. This happens throughout the entire game. As well as this, you find notes from the enemy sides either when your playing as Abby and killing Seraphites or when you play as Ellie and killing Wolves. You find notes from them detailing experiences and lives they had. The entire game is building towards the final moments where Ellie finally realises why other people made certain decisions.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bro come on, the new gameplay mechanics are fresh and new for a PS4 exclusive, the graphics are sick, and the cinematics are like a movie, pretty unique graphics.

    Now. The Story is bad, really bad, I mean why would you kill one of the best characters in the entire videogame industry like that, Joel deserve a better death, I mean Joel was old of course, but he was a complete badass, his death was something stupid, Naughty Dog have some unique stories but this one here is lame, like if they try to make you feel bad for Abby, I mean why would anyone feel bad for someone who is not relevant.

    The story could be better if Joel didn't die in the beggining, maybe later in the game like protecting Ellie or something like that.

    Naughty Dog literally spits on our face with a story like that, the director and the company give us a lot of hype for something so dissapointing, the only good thing about TLOU2 is the graphics and new gameplay otherwise is just another bad history.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well, my opinion about this game is just a view of this Elly story.
    I like this game, it's something new, gameplay, grafic and music are beautiful.
    But not a Story.
    When I start to play this game I think "That it is, yes! I wait for it so long and now I can enjoy it"
    But no..
    Just look at the start of story, poor Joel, I know, he must die, but not like that, not at the begining, hell no.
    Abby story sucked.
    The plot could be built differently, I was disgusted to play for Abby, I do not understand why we were given control over her.
    It was an absolutely superfluous story in this game, it was possible to mitigate the motivation for killing Joel in 2-3 cutscenes.
    Throughout the game, I could not express Abby's compassion. I liked Owen more, who was never disclosed as a character.
    Ellie’s motivation at the end of the game is not clear, why, for what?
    Thx for game Dog, but it's the poor END of this story...    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The only good about this game are the graphics, animation and feel of gameplay but what made the frist game so great was the story which got totaly butchered in Part 2 joal gets killed like a total idiot and tommy also acts as if he never encountered any steanger gives away all information just like that which gets joel killed, and Ellie is turned to a completly psychopath in emo coating, joel taught elie bever to seek revenge and she litterly spits on everything she learnd from him.
    Not gonna lie Abbys part was and felt more human and in touch with the previous story than ellies part which is sad, ellies part litterly made me cheer for Abby, ellie was just annoying and over all the game goes so much into griddyness that it is not real enjoyable to play after a few hours as ellie which is the first time i felt like that playing a video game, this could have been executed much better with a much better outcome but no it also just showed how rigged rating systems are and awards.    … 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]
