    Complete and utter trash. Yes, they put effort into it, they put millions of dollars into it. But it still somehow managed to be total garbage. I'm convinced that they spent money on fake reviews - I don't think game journalists, of all people, are beyond accepting a deal of "I'll give you the game before it's released, you give it a 10/10, and I'll give you $100,000, just sign this NDA".

    For me, this game is good. The story is not as good as in the first part but it still have something to share happiness, sadness, tears.

Didn’t expect this kind of cheap story. Ellie is completely a boring character but she was not in the first game. Joel is dead & you have to play with abby. I mean seriously???… Expand

    This game is a dysfunctional disaster. This is like to go to the Dyatlov Pass. The craziness of this story climaxed when 70% of the dev's crew preferred to give up the lifeboat, even facing a prelude of one of the worst economic recessions ever seen.

    The Worst game of all time. It makes you fight your beloved characters. You can't connect with its new characters and it makes you play as someone you hate for more than half of the game. :-|

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. TL;DR: You can pass on this one, watch on youtube if you wan't to know the story.

    =======================================================================

    Great graphics. nuff said, One of the best looking PS4 game.

    Gameplay, its the same with minor improvement from the original game. And after you play it for 20 hours, it become boring and tedious. AI still dumb

    Story, well its revenge story, bad one that is. Compared to the original game, this one feels unlike the unique "human" side of the post apocalyptic story the original game had. And this game even try to drag the playtime to agonizing hours of playing character you don't know and probably don't care at all. All i want is the dynamic relationship between elie and joel which -fortunately- i still can enjoy through the flashback scenes.

    Overall, i feel disappointed, i wish the leak aren't true, i refuse to beliefe it from the bottom from my heart. They throw away what i love from the first game and give me cringy coming of age revenge story. Mediocre naughty dog, mediocre.

    Gameplay 3/10 (nothing new, same old thing, generic stealth mechanic)
    Graphics 9/10 (One of the most beautiful PS4 game ever)
    Story 3/10 (This score for the flashback scenes)
    Replay value 1/10 (Play it once means you done with the game, hell you dont even need to buy the game to enjoy the story)

    Verdict 4/10 - I just wasted $60 for experience i can enjoy from letsplay youtube video.    … Expand

    This game is a huge let down.. I found myself pushing through it just to finish it. There is nothing here to keep you hooked and you don’t feel attached to the game like you would if you play the first one. I played the first game through 4 times and still play the multiplayer. I will never play Part 2 again and I am upset that they profited off me buying it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I get people are mad about some choices in the story, but negatively bombing the reviews on Metacritic is just silly. Why give the game a 1 out of 10, while the game is great! It looks stunning, combat is great and responsive, I love the way you get extra skills and unlock more branches as you go by finding books and exploring the map is just plain fun. The only thing I dislike is your follower standing in the way sometimes. I think I’ve played around 6 hours now. 90% of reviews were made without even playing the game. People are just too stupid to get their own opinion about it, so they board the easy hype train and write a negative review without playing it at all. Well, play it yourself to find out if you like it or not. Don’t just negatively review something you haven’t even laid your hands on yet!… Expand

    The Good:
    -Graphics are awesome
    -Dog you can pet -A lot of accessibility options for people that are blind for example. -Gameplay is alright. The Bad: -The story completely drags the experience down as a whole. The new characters that are introduced don't really have or give us any reasons as to why we should care about them the same way we cared about the previous game's    The Good:
    -Graphics are awesome
    -Dog you can pet
    -A lot of accessibility options for people that are blind for example.
    -Gameplay is alright.

    The Bad:
    -The story completely drags the experience down as a whole. The new characters that are introduced don't really have or give us any reasons as to why we should care about them the same way we cared about the previous game's characters. It tries to pull off this extremely serious tone but it does it so much it reaches a point where it becomes the most hilariously absurd thing i've ever witnessed with a friend. If you're in for a great story, you are better off elsewhere as it is simultaneously unsatisfying and unrewarding.
    -The game really isn't that challenging or throws punches at you. It always feels like you're being lead by the game, instead of having the player adapt to the game's difficulty itself. There's literally a option to "Skip Puzzles"

    The Ugly:
    -The gameplay while it's alright, the maps are huge as hell, which means it takes a lot of time to really clear out an area. This can be boring if you just can't get into the game, or in my case, aren't laughing with a friend at how hilarious the prone system is.

    -The prone mechanic is broken as can be. It takes away all the challenge of stealth and reached a point to were i would fire literal loud GUNS at people and yet they still couldn't find me. Incredible.

    Its very clear Naughty Dog put a lot of effort into this game, there's no doubt about that. The way they've been going about it though in terms of arguing about it with the people online is...really bad. There's some hints of a good game buried in here somewhere, Maybe if the gameplay improved since the previous one, or if some of the story elements were changed. It's not the worst game ever, but it's certainly not good.

    5/10. A Shallow experience, that yields unrewarding results and an ending that leaves an outcome nobody really is going to like....at all.    … Expand

    I was not able to sleep yesterday...I wasted ₹4000 on a really really bad game. The game's visuals and gameplay is outstanding but the story makes me go mad. I didn't know any spoilers about the game. Excited. Hyped. Thank God I got the physical disk. I am going to sell it but I really feel bad for the one buying the disk. I will say that person that the game was TRASH before handing it to him.

    They kill Joel in the first couple hours. The destroy established character development and to rub it in, the game director self inserts himself **** one of the characters. A complete disaster.

    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

    I’m a few hours into the game and so far I’ve enjoyed it. I don’t know why people dislike it so much. I feel like so many people haven’t even played the game yet and still left bad reviews. If you played this game for an hour or two and you dislike it, fair enough, your opinion is valid, but if you’ve only played like a few minutes I think you’re opinion isn't completely formed yet.

    Takes a huge dump on everything that made the first game good. A way overhyped title that in no way has a better plot or depth than games like Detroit become human or Red dead redemption 2.

    Dumb game. Really dumb game that panders and plays with emotion but with zero gain from the story. Clunky controls and overused mechanics

    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]
