    Habe mich jahrelang auf einen zweiten Teil gefreut und geblieben ist pure Enttäuschung!
    Die Story nimmt nicht an Fahrt auf sondern plätschert wie purer trash vor sich hin. Bei diesem Teil merkt man wie die möchtegern Fachpresse aus fanboys bestehen

    Pool of ****, graphics that's the only good thing about this, everything else is either mediocre or down right awful. The history is a bad movie, Joel (protagonist in the first game) died in a ridiculous way, the history is very very forced, pushes you down your throat sealing.

    The Last Of Us was one of the best gamed I have ever played. The Last Of Us 2 is one of the worst games I have ever played. Naughty Dog has no clue what made the Last of Us great. They have lost too much talent in recent years and we are left with this trash.

    Positives : Gameplay - Graphics (X2) - Cutscenes - Acting - i guess soundtrack ? ( didn't feel anything special)
    Negatives : STORY ( story with all capital letters, yes ) - unlikable characters - unnecessarily long
    Note : 0 point reviews are trolls but this game surly has it own flaws...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Hi from Russia.
    Я поиграл в эту игру. Что нужно знать:

    1. Если рассматривать эту игру отдельно от первой части, то она нормальная.
    Хорошая графика, лично мне нравится физика. Боевая часть тоже классная. Но сюжет как в call of duti. Никакой. Нет персонажей за которых ты будешь переживать. 2. Почему я поставил такую низкую оценку? Потому что я играл в первую часть. Сощдале по свинки отнеслись к нашим чувствам, господа. Они за первый час игры убили полностью уважение к себе. Дело не в нестандартных отношениях между людьми. Клянусь, если я встречаю на улице (или мой знакомый, знакомая) нестандартный ориентации, мне абсолютно все равно. Вот ровно. Но когда это пытаются мне в голову протолкнуть на уровне шедевра первой части, простите,    … Expand

    Naughty Dog has always been at the forefront of games when it comes to the visuals, and this game is no different. Shame it was functionally ruined by the story.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game was impressive in regards to its visuals, sound design, voice acting, scenery and game play. What brought this game down was the story and more specifically its execution.

    It opts to go for the bleakest possible outcomes in every scenario. It glorifies its misery. It cynically and naively assumes the worst of humanity out of literally every single person left in the world.

    The game wants you to understand there are multiple sides to every story/person but in doing so, it forces that down your throat while almost ignoring all attempts at developing other parts of the story. An example of this is when Abby kills Joel towards the beginning of the game without (to the knowledge of the player) any reason. This immediately makes the player despise the character, regardless of what justifications they may have in the future. It makes the player completely unable to empathize with Abby getting her revenge. But it constantly tries to make her more likeable and more human in most of her scenes, while at the same time making Ellie and Joel look as bad as possible.

    Then there's that ending. Put simply, "revenge is bad" but only if you're Ellie. Whereas Abby gets hers and more.

    The entire game is just the player watching helplessly and annoyed as the characters make bad decision after bad decision that you don't want them to make. It removes player agency entirely,

    For a story-driven game, the story was a let-down.    … Expand

    Not only did we all knew from the trailer that the Part 2 will be about Ellie's revenge but also you all wanted to play again as Joel? Just let the old man die already and be with his daughter... I bet he wouldn't want to live another 24 years (altogether 48 years) with that **** apocalypse on his head. If the world turned into the same messed up place as the one in The Last of Us, then I would literally kill myself few seconds later.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As a huge fan of the first game (and it's DLC) I'm crushed. Yeah, the graphics are good (personally I thought RDR2's were much better and that was three years ago) and it's pretty smooth. Gameplay is the same as the first game, but you're in it for the story, characters and relationships, all of which goes out the window in this game. Everyone feels out of character, acts out of character, and there's no arcs or growth. They're just miserable, and the game makes sure you are miserable too. Violence was expected, and I'm typically more than fine with it, but a lot of the time it felt too over the top and had me flinching.The plot makes no sense at all, with huge plot holes, no arc, and having everything out of order feels sloppy and disjointed. Also, playing as Abby is a **** slog. They show her brutally kill Joel before giving her a "sympathy arc", which just solidifies me hating her before she gets a chance. Why is she important? We've killed so many as Joel and even more as Ellie. Who gives a **** about her father? The first game was about redemption, how you can always find something to live for, and how even the darkest paths can be turned off of. The first game ended with the player weighing the question of "was Joel's choice acceptable?" But this game doesn't allow you to sit with that anymore. The uncertainty of if Ellie knows and is going along with the lie or actually believes him is thrown out. This game literally has the director lookalike spit on that story's dead body. The relationships from the first game are gone. The characters are gone. The message is gone. What's the point. The ending doesn't even complete the story and just leaves you upset and unsatisfied. What a **** waste. If you haven't condemned your 60 bucks just look up the intro and the museum scene and save yourself the ordeal of the most disappointing game I've ever played.… Expand

    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]
