It's amazing how a stupid progresive idea **** a videogame, how the **** you kill the main character of the first game that easily, it's stupid this kind of "new ideas" and how can you feel empathy to people you even know,I came to play an apocaliptic game not to see Barney season 5 Expand

    I just imagine that this sequel does not exist. Just forget, close my eyes. Good luck with that.

    Awful...just awful.

    The story makes no sense and does not fit with the first game. Then you have all the SJW stuff being shoved down your throat...do not buy this game, waste of money

    They kill of your favourite character Joel from the first game in the most sadistic way possible only 2 hours into the 30 hour game then force you to play as their murderer Abby for a whole half of it in an attempt to make you somehow sympathise and justify their reasons for doing so. The other half of the game is played as your other favourite character from the first game Ellie who acts uncharacteristically throughout going on a violent murder spree across the country trying to find and get revenge on Abby for killing Joel. You are forced to play as abby to beat up Ellie her pregnant girlfriend Dina and are only spared because Abby is stopped by another character called Leg and when the final showdown happens at the end of the game the Abby is uncharacteristically spared By Ellie making the whole game up until that point all for naught. As Abby & Lev row off into the mist in a boat Ellie breaks down in the water and goes back home only to find Dina & the baby no longer there because Ellie chose to go get revenge instead of staying with them despite never actually getting it. The game ends with Ellie trying to play Joel's song as the the only reminder of him she has left but cannot hit the chords because Abby bit two of her fingers off in the last battle. In the end Abby who you will justifiably hate with a passion lives happily ever after and Ellie who you understandably love is left with nothing and no-one by their side.

    Don't buy this game if you don't want to suffer from serious dissapointment and depression

    What pisses me off is that more than half of these user reviews aren’t even from people who have played the game. They’re just haters who wanna talk **** about the game.

    They really focused all of their development time on the graphics. The story and characters are HORRIBLE. Keep your politics out of videogames!! They really got rid of the best part of the last game- Muiltiplayer- for this crap!! Please don't let Drukmann do this again.

    So, even part 1 looks overrated in 2020, but for 2013 it was really good. The only thing that cool in part 2 is graphics and animations. Also cutscenes looks great. But gameplay, main plot is disgusting. I wonder how this game rated by critics almost like rdr2

STOP rating anything that you never even try to understand at all.

    tbh they could have made a The Last Of Us remastered remastered, because this game doesn't do it for me. If naughty dog only applied those new graphics to the old game other people would have a better time playing it again.

    the game is heavy, anxious, it takes you well, gameplay is at the top, it absolutely amazed me. the story is you think, it hurts you, but how it does it! emotions like these I haven't felt in a long time. it's not a game with a nice ending, but it's with an ending made as real as possible. absolutely to play.

    To start with the positives, this game is good looking.

    That's all for the positives, given it's visual appeal i can't call it "complete" trash but it is certainly trash. The story makes no sense, nothing is happening for any discernible reason and the ending is god awful, i cannot understand how they would let something like this get to a final cut it deserved to be laughed out of the

Gameplay wise it's even sparser on mechanics than the first game, it'll take you no more then a few hours to completely finish it, incredibly restrictive and lacking. Not really a game at all more an interactive movie that has the already mentioned worst story you could ever imagine. Anyone considering buying this game i highly recommend you give it a week and it'll be reduced to $20 like no mans sky, this is a game to avoid at all cost.

    Graphics, and controls were a total joy. Story is very bad and monotonous. Kinda like watching the walking dead season 100. Naughty Dog is very keen to dissapointing in round 2. They did it with watchdogs and they dis it again for the last of us. imo still a game to have just wait for price drop as it currently js not worth it as is.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I absolutely love the first last of us. it is probably my favorite game ever. but part 2 has nothing to do with the first game. sure there are some flashbacks but the plot is a revenge story. not a story about the ending of the last game. the best part about part 1 was the relationship between Joel and Ellie. but part 2 removed that. and the characters don’t really act like they did in the first game either. i liked the game but only when there is meaningful cutscenes or gameplay. and the combat gets really repetitive through out the game. the graphics are absolutely gorgeous. but this game isn’t a masterpiece, it’s a good game. but it is nothing compared to part 1.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is graphically stunning. However, the story is lackluster and frustrating. The actual game play without the story or the graphics is good, but nothing incredibly memorable.

    Story 2/10
    Game play 5/10
    Graphics 9.5/10

    That being said the lighting, environmental details like snow falling off trees or keeping snow prints, the facial expressions during stealth take-downs, and the overall graphics were some of the best I've ever seen. Credit must be given when due.

    Unfortunately for me, the level of importance is weighted in order from story, to game play, to graphics. Beautiful games are nice, but the story is what captivates me and keeps me invested. The game play makes living the story or fun. And this one just fell short of my mark I was hoping for story wise, a lot.

    Specifically my irk with the story was the Chaotic and unorganized nature of feeling. Getting rid of a beloved character in Joel without a real sense of ability to bask in my efforts left me feeling as annoyed as Mass effect 3's original ending. Not to mention the fact that we don't even get revenge on Abby! I'm forced to play the a character that kills one of my favorite characters and then I hate her and get no satisfaction option? What is this Game of Thrones Season 8? The only silver lining was bringing in Dina for a love interest as well comedic relief between her and Ellie but she couldn't fill the hole from an entire prior game by herself or make up for this hogwash of a story.

    Terrible game. Not enjoying the experience at all. 11/10 would not buy it again. If I were given a choice either to play this game to save myself or give myself a lobectomy, I choose the lobectomy then proceed to do a lobotomy to myself

    Thing is: in most aspects, story aside, TLOU2 is a good to very good experience. But the story feels forced, unrealistic und uses violence as a self defining excuse to fill in logic gaps.
    I didn't spoiler myself before and i don't mind characters gender or sexual orientation (Horizon Zero Dawn was excellent). But i do mind poor character desogn and unsatisfying story decisions.

    2 points, 1 for the poor team who worked on it. And 2 for the graphics and music. And absolutely no points for the writing team who conjured up this hot garbage.

    Great graphics. Everything else depressing & unfun. I’m great with LGBT characters. But regardless of their sexuality or orientation, this story was just bad.

    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]
