    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Truly pathetic.. first y'all go on with your false advertising.. inserting Joel into scenes wich don't exist or he's model is just swapped out for Jesse's with the same exact **** line... You knew people weren't gonna buy this dog**** if you told them Joel dies at the getgo by playing a bit of golf with that mother****** Abby.
    Yes Joel needed to die for the story to work but he didn't need to die like this.. you guys literally dumbed him down just to serve the plot.. the Joel I knew and loved would never have trusted Abby enough to go back to her mansion and neither Tommy nor Joel would've uttered their names like "hi my name's **** Joel I killed the fireflies we live in a city downhill oh some big guns y'all got there you have ammo?here take mine and shoot me in the goddamn leg".
    And it wasn't just Joel.. Ellie is extremely unlikeable.. alongside with Dina and Jesse.. on Abby's side is the same **** unlikeable characters and even tho I felt ok with Owen's character the pacing and the timing of them flashbacks were so dog**** that by the time we got to them I couldn't care less and was already over the fact that they died and just wanted to get back to Ellie or just **** finish the game..
    Ellie's and Dina's relationship feels as forced as homework felt in the 3rd or 4th grade.. not because they're both females.. swap Dina out for a male character and it still would've been utter garbage...
    I ain't even gonna talk abou the ending cuz that **** made me wanna wash my eyes with **** Griffin acid from the Witcher because that game was actually amazing.. but rn as the metascore stands this **** is better than TW3...
    This game proves that good graphic doesn't make a good game.. I also like how youtubers had to mute certain sections because of copyright.. like you know people are gonna make content so why make the half of it **** copyrighted...
    The only two characters that were decently written were Yara and Lev and none of them **** matter at the end..
    0/10 for this hot **** garbage game.. would've given it a 1/10 if Abby would've **** died or Ellie atleast.. they cant both live we want closure ... And yes I say Ellie because by the end I hated her just as much as I hated Abby and would've had no problem if she died... **** Neil Druckmann and **** Naughty Dog! Waited 7 years for nothing..    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So much here is good. this is the best looking game on the PS4, probably ever. The use of difficulty settings, etc was done amazing, and the gaming industry needs to apply this to future games. It allows total customization on how you want to experience difficulty, rewards etc, and it's very well done.

    The game makes a huge mistake when you have to play as "Abby", after killing the character you probably love the most as a fan of the series. At times I felt manipulated as a player having to perform forced actions that Abby makes, The "Scripted" action of killing the dog as Ellie, felt very forced, and then introduced a weak story around it. The story felt cheap, poorly written and forced. I was not invested in Abby's character whatsoever, although I will admit she has the best combat scenes in the game.

    The ending was poorly written, and very gut wrenching, and did not make any sense at the end. Narratively speaking it was very bad.

    I give it a 6/10 because graphically its beautiful, plays okay, but gets repetitive.    … Expand

    MOST DISAPPOINTING GAME EVER! This is The Last Jedi of video games. It's the Terminator: Dark Fate of video games. This is a story based game first and foremost where the main characters are very important. The game play comes second. So the story is what makes or breaks a game like this. We all fell in love with the story and the characters in the first game, but in    MY SCORE: 0/10

    MOST DISAPPOINTING GAME EVER!

    This is The Last Jedi of video games. It's the Terminator: Dark Fate of video games. This is a story based game first and foremost where the main characters are very important. The game play comes second. So the story is what makes or breaks a game like this. We all fell in love with the story and the characters in the first game, but in The Last Of Us Part 2 you hate the story and the treatment Joel and Ellie gets. Both their characters gets destroyed. Joel and Ellie are totally out of character in this game and doing things that contradicts everything we've learned about them in the first game. The new main character is totally unlikeable and a complete failure.

    The music is good, the graphics are good, the voice acting is good, but it all comes down to the story and that fact is that the story is a complete failure. Naughty Dog has a done a game for themselves and the woke crowd on Twitter. The game is not for the fans of the first game. They took all the things fans loved in the first game and destroyed them and replaced them with a progressive agenda.

    My interest for this game died about 2 hours into the game when there is a key event in the game that will upset the fans. Prepare to get your expectations subverted. After that I was not engaged in the story at all, I didn't care what happened and the attempt to get you more involved in the story backfired totally. For the rest of the game you really are just hunting down people to get revenge and in the end that is also a failure because the ending is not at all what you want as a fan. The developers totally missed the mark on that too.

    DON'T BUY IT! CHECK TWITCH OR YOU TUBE INSTEAD!

    Last of us was my favourite game for years. And I had the voice in my head telling me how can they pull that again.
    Well Naughty Dog and Sony, You did it!!!
    Thank you so much for all your efforts and hard work, you created a masterpiece. Be proud of what you created. You have again touched my heart and sparked that flame your first game gave me. This is why I game and I Thank you

Locations - well it’s mostly one big, unlike the first part where there were four seasons of the year, cities, suburbs, even the sewage system in which the survivors once arranged a settlement. Almost all locations can be cleaned by shooting opponents if you do not miss to often (passed on an average difficulty level) Closer to the middle of the game there is a feeling that you are watching an uninteresting series and are already ready to quit, but still you want to find out what happened in the end since you already started.

    To co zrobili z Joelem, a i jak poprowadzona została po tym fabuła przekracza ludzkie pojęcie. Chyba pozazdrościli twórcom "gry o tron". Pokazali, że da się zepsuć coś epickiego bardziej jak zrobili to nawet twórcy GoT w 8 sezonie.

    30+ часов на высокой сложности.
    Геймплей логично эволюционировал, ощущается приятный импакт от стрельбы, сочная боёвка. Рекомендую тоже проходить на высокой сложности, чтобы игровые механики раскрыли себя гораздо сильнее - активнее использовать окружение (отступать, прятаться, использовать весь арсенал).
    Уровни довольно комплексные, любителям зачищать углы есть где развернуться. По    30+ часов на высокой сложности.

I'm shocked at how obsessively it tries to make me sympathize with Abby, seeing her as a victim, while taking so many kills and brutality for granted. But even with Ellie, there is never an option except death. Why do all the characters have to attack me in key scenes? I just want revenge on Abby and leave countless piles of bodies like it's nothing. I am always the invader and the aggressor. I find the justifications for my actions very disturbing and the permanent twisting of the facts in the question of guilt very troubling. And all this in a game world where humanity is perishing. The graphics, the technology and the storytelling are simply terrific. A really super development team had to implement an unworthy story, whose main character had to compulsively cover all minorities of our current time. Sad.… Expand

    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.
