    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've only played for 6 hours, but it's a boring story with boring characters. I don't care about the sex scenes, and the graphics are Naughty Dog Level, but it seems like a rushed/forced experience that lectures you more than anything..… Expand

    I'll be brief.
    Technical masterpiece, a story failure. No more comments, could not hold my anger until the end of the game.
    Just disapointed

    Not a big fan of how naughty dog decided to go along with the story, but the game looks great, has fun combat and is not as linear as the first one. Though the first one is much better.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Se avete sempre voluto giocare nei panni di Micah Bell in red dead redemption 2, o avete sempre sognato un simulatore di golf degno di questo nome e se amate le storie di vendetta dove alla fine di una lunga sequela di morti fra uomini donne e bambini il protagonista decide, illuminato dalla grazia di padre pio, di risparmiare la persona reale oggetto della vendetta, allora questo è il gioco che fa per voi!!!! Immergetevi in un meraviglioso mondo post apocalittico dove le uniche brave persone rimaste sono gli zombie. Godetevi una trama coinvolgente quanto quella dell’ultima stagione di Game of Thrones, espedienti narrativi intelligenti come quelli di Star Wars rise of sky walker, personaggi costruiti con la stessa cura e attenzione delle comparse in 50 sfumature di grigio e un finale che vi farà rimpiangere quello di how I met your mother. Giocate nei panni di Ellie, l’amata coprotagonista del primo gioco e divertitevi a vivere una sequela interminabile di traumi e orrori che la segneranno a vita. Potrete giocare ( e dovrete) anche nei panni di Abby, figlia di un npc casuale del primo gioco (a quanto pare molto importante), e unica persona in tutta l’apocalisse ad avere una scorta segreta di steroidi e anabolizzanti. All’inizio potrete non amare lei e i suoi terribili amici, ma dopo svariate ore di gioco..... continuerete a detestarla, ma poi.... la odierete ancora di più. (Seriamente perché dovremmo giocare nei suoi panni?). Godetevi una storia avvincente e per nulla contorta e piena di cliché, intervallata da interminabili flashback, che sottraggono solo tempo prezioso per finire questo supplizio. Intendiamoci, il gioco è meraviglioso da guardare, con paesaggi incredibili e grafiche mozzafiato, anche il gameplay è molto divertente, o almeno finché il gioco non ti chiede di pestare brutalmente Ellie usando Abby e le sue manone da scaricatore di porto. Ma ora basta denigrare l’aspetto di Abby, in fondo non è giusto odiare qualcuno per il suo aspetto; infatti Abby è splpersoorribile,… Expand

    Extremely disappointing. The game is just some propaganda with pretty graphics. Awful story with characters turning worse and worse. I especially hate the character of Abby.

    More game is not better. Game starts really dragging around hour 30 so much so that flashbacks, while annoying distractions from gameplay at the start, become welcome breaks at the end. Also, why take out the multiplayer from the first? Nothing gained from that loss.

    The first one was good, so what's wrong with the second one?

    Well, the story is terrible, and for a game that's all about the storytelling, this can't be a good game. If you order a chicken sandwich and the bread is great but the chicken is nasty and stringy, that's basically what this game is. I don't know why the critics gave this such high scores.

There's really not a lot you get to do in this game either. It feels like I'm being forced to go through the motions just to see what happens next. I kind of wish this "game" was just a movie or something, because at least then it would be condensed into 2 hours of suffering and probably be a lot cheaper.

    Also, for a company that calls itself Naughty Dog, you would think they would know how to program realistically moving dogs in their games. Unfortunately, I saw multiple occasions where a dog would somehow pivot and turn without moving its legs, like it's a freakin' M1A1 Abrams tank. I am pretty sure I've seen more convincing animation in games from 10+ years ago. Hopefully they'll at least patch that nonsense.

    Not recommended!!!!    … Expand

    Get woke, go broke. A terrible follow up story to the first game, completely destroying any emotional ties you had with the main protagonist. Minimal improvements to game mechanics. TLOU 2 is waste of time to invest in, and should be viewed as non canon fan fiction, along with Game of thrones S8 and the The last jedi.

    It's visuals are gorgeous, the gameplay is super tight and Naughty dog has made some very nice improvements to the formula. The animation work is masterclass.

    The story is also very powerful, please try to go into it with an open mind. Naughty Dog is not trying to push an agenda, there is nothing wrong with having a main character be gay. If we do not allow games to explore real world topics and issues, then how can we expect the medium to ever be seen as something more than a childish past-time?

    No, the story is not bad. No, the characters are not poorly written. Most people who've reviewed this game did not even play it, for god's sakes.    … Expand

    Visually, the game is stunning (and no, not brave... just stunning). Everything else is ****. The most important components of a game like this (story and character) are exceptionally lacking. Under no circumstances will I purchase or pay any attention to a third installment.

    This game was honestly one of the most disappointing experiences I've ever had.

    I was a huge TLoU fan and was extremely excited for this one, but they've seriously dropped the ball here.

    The gameplay feels very dated, the story is laughably bad, and they have fixed the reviews to try and sell to uninformed people. This is a hard no from me, and if I could give it negative points, I would.

    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]
