    Naughty Dog lied to us. The final game is very different from the E3 2019 trailer. This is unforgivable.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spoilers. This game is probably one of the worst stories I have ever experienced. Honestly I am so disappointed with naughty dog and I just wish this game never existed in the first place. First of all, there was absolutely no need for a sequel because the game should have just ended with Ellie and Joel arriving at Jackson. If they really wanted to make a sequel then they should have just made a DLC where they don't kill Joel like its nothing and make a completely new character which shows up out of nowhere. The thing that makes the game so bad isn't just the fact that they killed Joel but the fact that they made Ellie dislike him because he tried to save a childs life. Why would you make her dislike him when shes too young to even decide for herself? Whats even worse is that naughty dog puts 8 hours of gameplay with Abby, the character that shouldn't have even existed and that is utterly despised for murdering Joel. I find this part truly disgusting because they tried to make us have sympathy for her? Why the **** would you do that naughty dog? This part of the game just makes me hate her more and makes me feel 0 sympathy towards her. I honestly wish someone questioned Neil Druckmann when he was making up this story, if he was actually sane at the time of creating the storyline. Lastly I beg you not to play this game if you wish to continue liking the last of us franchise because the sequel ruined it for me. Thank you naughty dog for ruining a game that was amazing.… Expand

    Except the story... Unfortunately the most important on this game was the story...

    The horrible screenwriter and the horribly reported sequence of the plot are unreasonable character psychology.

    Sorry but the storyline is in relation to Part 1 .. not the same. Its so random in some corners. The feeling of Part 1 was a few times more intense and im sorry that i must say, that im not Happy with the existence of Part 2. If Part 1 stands alone, it would be a way better story.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. TLOU2 is a perfect example of an overly cocky studio trying to be woke.

    I at first thought their take on violence was very intuitive and new,but after completing the game I have to say that in theory it is great but poor in execution.

    Because of their grueling take on violence the entire game is just grey and dark and frankly not fun to play.

    The first game was the same but what drove you and gave you hope was the father daughter relationship of Joel and Ellie.

    That very relationship that drove and was the silver lining midst the horrible world of The Last of Us,was stripped away from us in the first two hours of the game.

    The real problem was the way they did it.

    Spitting on Joel´s corpse just seemed like Naughty dog were angry at the character and just wanted him gone.

    Then even worse you NEED to spend at least 10 hours playing as Abby,Joel`s murderer.

    You are supposed to understand and sympathize with her because Joel was the "real" monster.

    She killed him after he saved her.

    Not to mention how stupid they made Joel and Tommy,in the first game they were both super cautious and could spot an ambush from a mile away,and now when they are older and wiser they just gave out their real names to complete strangers.

    Throughout the game Ellie kills every person that was in the room when Joel was killed EXCEPT THE ACTUAL PERSON THAT DID THE KILLING.

    The writing is sloppy at best,character motives are non existent and it is JUST A BAD STORY.

    Now the game play is great,the music,the level building the graphics all beautiful.

    Most journalists are trying to pin the hate of this game to gamers being ant-trans or anti-LGBTQ when that could not be further from the truth.

    Look at The Last Of Us:Left behind DLC or at Life is Strange.

    Fans simply feel betrayed, the thing that made the first game so good, destroyed in the first two hours of the game.

    RIP The Last Of Us,you deserved better.    … Expand

    Critics can't give the game a negative reviews for risk of being called intolerant, ignorant or homophobic.

    I always thought there shouldn't be a sequel. This one lacks respect for the first TLoU as it's far worse than I imagined. My main gripe is with the story, the attempt to try out a sympathy project at the expense of a beloved character, setting off a pointless revenge plot with a bleak theme and tone for the game was uncalled for and unnecessary. The flashbacks were worth the purchase butI always thought there shouldn't be a sequel. This one lacks respect for the first TLoU as it's far worse than I imagined. My main gripe is with the story, the attempt to try out a sympathy project at the expense of a beloved character, setting off a pointless revenge plot with a bleak theme and tone for the game was uncalled for and unnecessary. The flashbacks were worth the purchase but they angered me more as to what had happened. It also proved to me that TLoU is nothing without the father daughter dynamic that Joel and Ellie shared. As for the sympathy project, I see how they tried to reflect the first TLoU through Abby's story but it felt cheap and the revenge plot was triggered by such forced and lazy writing that I was literally left shocked and in disbelief. Ellie's story in the sequel was hollow like her character with one hundredth of the charm of her prequel self. Abby's story was better and I would've enjoyed it had this been another game. Humans are tribal beings and cannot be expected to feel the same way for every group. The ending was pathetic for not allowing options since a second play through could've made me choose differently even though I doubt it. This sympathy project bites off more than it can chew.… 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]
