    A great game that builds on the world of the first game. Yes it has its views but if you can look past that and enjoys the world and story that Naughty Dog has buildt then I fully believe you can enjoy this game.

    После 10 часов игры могу сделать вывод, что все очень очень круто. Я доволен игрой и считаю ее лучшим, во что довелось поиграть в этом году.

    Having finished the game 20 minutes ago, I must say I really enjoyed this piece of art. It is a really worthy sequel that is even netter than the first game. I highly recommend it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is the best game that I played so far, honestly. Plot is just not for too sensitive ones, and seems many of gamers overestimated their expectations a little...

    For me Joel would never die in another circumstances. He sacrificed ENOUGH in previous part to make his death another drama. Its hard but realistic.

    And like it or not, it's a new world.With lgbtq and emancipation. With strong characters, not genders. And resisting changes could lead only to closed perception.    … Expand

    As far as the LGBTQIA+ representation is concerned, I feel that it’s refreshing to see. I’m sorry that the protagonist doesn’t fit the Male Power Fantasy, but honestly, that is becoming old and tired. Clearly it speaks more about the player who is uncomfortable than it does about the quality of the game.

    Naughty Dog has given us something special. A piece of art that is not only forward thinking and progressive, but thought provoking. It holds a mirror up to parts of reality we choose to ignore because it’s easier to bury your head than face ugly truths. Please do not listen to all the negativity. Play it, all the way through, and come to your own conclusion.    … Expand

    The game have a strong and extremely intense history! Ellie is a great and powerful female protagonist, she may be one of the greatest female (if not the best) characters ever made in all types of media (and one of the greatest characters made of all)....

The way the story builds up and gets more and more intense gradually is bizarre and I love every minute of it! Abby, even though I hate her for what she did, is a great character as well, I love how they designed her and the gameplay using her is completely different because of her body structure and strength!

    I love with all my heart all musics that plays throughout the whole game, they used musics of three of my favorite musicians: pearl jam, tash sultana and Shawn james..... I can't even begin to explain how the tracks played throughout the game makes me feel

    Finished my second playthrough (Survival difficulty on the first one and Suvival+ difficulty on the second) a couple of day ago, took some time before writing this review so it won't effected by initial feelings and thoughts.
    in short, I loved it, I am giving it 10/10 because I like to rate games on a scale of 1 to 5, in a way that it shows the level of the general product on all aspects,    Finished my second playthrough (Survival difficulty on the first one and Suvival+ difficulty on the second) a couple of day ago, took some time before writing this review so it won't effected by initial feelings and thoughts.
    in short, I loved it, I am giving it 10/10 because I like to rate games on a scale of 1 to 5, in a way that it shows the level of the general product on all aspects, a perfect score doesn't mean the game is perfect in my book.

    I will start with the easy stuff and advance through the harder and the more controversial stuff.

    Technical quality is top of the industry both in graphics and audio, it isn't a surprise but this achievement is even more impressive that the game is on the Playstation 4 console that is almost 7 years old at this point. But the more impressive part is the attention to details that makes this game so immersive.

    Gameplay is much improved over it's predecessor and level design is simply amazing with some influence from Uncharted 4 and Lost Legacy. it's nothing revolutionary but it's a natural evolution of a everything that was in The Last of Us. New types of enemies added to the game and older enemies are refined and feel more unique than before, with a well done AI that made my experience more challenging with the higher difficulty like I wanted.
    I also like the slight change in gameplay throughout the game, although at the start it felt like a startover, it quickly picked up and was refreshing.

    All the extra options and accessibility in the game is simply amazing, I haven't used them but the amount of stuff you can modify in the game from a custom difficulty and changes to HUD all the way to modifications that change the experience drastically that can be count as cheats for some people that have no need for those modifications. This is an amazing addition and I hope more singleplayer game will take note and implement stuff like that, I love when we get more options to choose how we want to experience a game to suit us.

    I personally liked the story and think that it truthful for the first game, but I do understand why this is so controversial and understand why some people are upset with the story itself and not necessarily the level of writing. Story about the cycle of violence is nothing new, like most other things unfortunately, so the execution is what matters here and in my opinion I think it was well done although a bit flawed. Naughty Dog used the fact this is a game and not a movie or something else to enhance the story by dragging the player to do things he doesn't necessarily want to do. I can't recall when I experienced that in a game before, I might have but usually I feel rewarded by story in games and that what makes this game standout for me.

    side note: I remember that the first game was planed to be a single game and after it was release Naughty Dog said they will make another game only if they got a story that they want to tell. Well that was that story they wanted to tell and I respect that a lot because they took huge risk here and all the controversies show it, I hope people will accept it and move on instead of try to bully the developers to give them what they want. I do think it was a bit blown out of proportion as a result from the leak.

    to conclude, I do recommend this game a lot, it's brilliant in all the technical stuff and the gameplay is very good. you might not like the story itself or certain parts of it, but give it a chance even when it's hard especially if you liked the first game. This is something you got to experience for yourself if you are a fan of the first game or those kind of games.    … Expand

    Es muy buen juego de sigilo , la historia genera sentimientos diversos Lo único que no me pareció bien fue algunas partes de la historia pero una historia no es para ser como uno quiere si no que te sorprenda
    Para mí es GOTY

    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]
