    If people give the game a 0/10 because they are crybabies and can't handle what can happen storywise in an apocalypse and hate the story, so I'm gonna give the game a 10/10 just because I can.

    I totally have no idea what the screenwriter is thinking. I think he probablly never play 1 before.
    Also , I have to say Im not discrimination on the homosexuality.
    But he really put tooooo much, that really make people feel really bad of it.
    Especillay he put it on a character who you gonna hate so much in the very beging.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The ending is just sad and unsatisfying. Ellie loses so much and doesn't even get what she did everything for. She lost Joel,Jesse,Dina,Tommy hates her for not going after Abby and she lost the ability to play guitar,which reminded her of Joel. What happens to Abby? She gets her revenge at the cost of her friends. If she was shown to also reflect on how it wasn't worth it I wouldn't want her dead and would be at peace with the ending. Another problem with the game are definetly the order of the flashbacks. If the game was in chronological order it would have been so much better. Joel's death would have had more impact as we get to play through all the flashbacks instead of it just being for shock value. The most enjoyable parts of this game were the flashbacks that remind you of the first game. I don't know what happend to this game and why it turned out like this when their previous games were so good. The graphics on the other hand look fabulous and the atmosphere is very cool, although compared to the PS3 The last of us not that impressive cause Naughty Dog's games look good in general. As a standalone game this is a 7, as the sequel to a game I loved so much its a 5 at most as it disrespects Joel in the worst way possible,characters behave strange and the writing is just.... wack.

    Part 3 could be about The rabbit that Ellie killed.
    A revenge play for the rabbit's family to kill Ellie.

    Thank you, you really hit the energy of 2020 and made it a nonsensical s....show. The critic reviews being all positive shows how deep these nerds are in the pockets of the developers. The actual user rating reflects how much of a slap in the gamer communities’ face this game is. From the deeply immersive, emotional and exhilarating the wonderful adventure we got to enjoy in the first part. Now it plays on bland revenge without any emotional depth and a non captivating narrative.

    Silly and childish love triangles with focus on sexuality and confused spoiled halfgrowns. No news on the virus, the cure, improve the characters we got to love from the first part, but u decided to butcher them. I am beyond sad.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Its an good game. Maybe not the best but the love and the love for the detail is what gives the game something very nice ... The first part with Elli to the cinema where Abby came was a 10 out of 10 After that the Part with Abby wasnt relevant to the story. Nevertheless, the game was nice from the graphics and the atmosphere was also generated very well . I would be Happy when a third Part comes in the Future.

No gastare el tiempo de las personas que lean ésto con montones de argumentos de porqué es una mierda la historia del juego, solamente diré que no tiene sentido, que la muerte de Joel era necesaria, peeero pésimamente ejecutada, que Elli después de todo lo que pasó en el juego deje viva a la Abby es simplemente estúpido y por último en ésta mini crítica, el hecho de que exista una persona transgénero en un en un mundo post apocalíptico es simplemente estúpido, osea, con todo lo que está pasando van a haber los recursos necesarios para hacer ese tipo de cirugías?? Cuando el tiempo que se gastó en operar, los insumos y todo lo que conlleva la recuperación despues de la operación es un sin sentido total. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First of all, I want to say Naughty Dog - we are not bots!
    I have been waiting for this game for many years.
    This game has a completely messy plot. A lot of uninteresting flat characters that do not bother you. The story is trying too hard to show you: “Look, these characters are good with dogs! Do you still think they are bad? Look how good they are with the kids! And one of them is actually pregnant! ”
    But this does not work at all.
    The ending of the story is so bad and completely meaningless. You kill a lot of people to avenge the death of someone you love, except for the damned killer. The player has no connection with the characters, because they behave so stupidly.
    What is the message of this story? Is revenge bad? So, why did a character who did not take revenge lose everything, but a character who actually took revenge got a damn new family?
    So disappointed at how a naughty dog ​​ruined my favorite franchise.

Visuals and atmosphere are nothing in a game you cannot even finish. How these "Reviewers" gave this game a 10/10 is mind boggling, Either they were paid off or are afraid of getting blacklisted by Sony and ND.

    The game director can't make a compelling story to save his life. He was a Hitchhiker on Uncharted 4 and The Last of Us 1 and tries to claim credit for those games.

    Neil Hitchhiker Druckmann is a saboteur!

    if this is a TV series or movie, I think it's fine, but for a game, you have to control a character who is give you strong negative feelings one second before then you have to control that character, no matter what happens next, this kind manipulate really disgusting.

    I will say I understand many of the points people are making regarding the story however not with the critic scores they are giving due to those points. Not agreeing with the story doesnt mean it's a bad story, the story is objectively well written and perfectly executed. It makes you feel intense emotion and a bad story cant do that.

    Play the game and make up your own mind and dont listen to a single one of these 0/10 reviews.

Who decided on this sad excuse for a storyline? So many characters that none of us care about, so much disrespect to the first game. I cannot comprehend how anyone would let this lazy writing pass. Did Naughty Dog seriously think this was good idea? I’m angry, we waited for YEARS. But I have to say, the graphics and gameplay were incredible. Such a shame the outlandish story offsets the visuals. Boo hoo. Should have done better. Disappointing, irritating mess. Expand

    In the first place - the game is great. If you really want to feel intensity of it, do not wantch anything on internet as it spoils all the fun and ruins the moment of surprise. It is similar to Game of Thrones - if you knew how Rob Starks wedding would end, it would not be same as when you watched it without knowing how that wedding ends.

    Este videojuego ha sido toda una experiencia, desde la música, los paisajes, los personajes bien desarrollados.
    Se nota las motivaciones de los personajes y te hace sentir empatía con ellos, el final es uno de los mejores finales que he visto en un videojuego, The Last Of Us Part II será un juego del que se hablara por algún tiempo.

    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]
