    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Graphic wise, this game looks great compared to The Last of Us being that it was a PS3 port. Where this fails is the story. I have read people saying to give it a chance or play it through so finishing the game today I can say that the story was poorly executed. Killing Joel early on was one thing, the manner in which they did it was not thought out at all. His death comes about from him being naive now? By trusting a room full of strangers being severely outnumbered? Like seriously? He ran someone over for merely approaching a vehicle he was in due to his lack of trust in anyone outside of those he knows. The second half of the game is very boring and playing as Abby completely ruins the momentum of the story in a poor attempt for the audience to feel empathy for her. This is just a poorly written story and honestly people should avoid this game if you are a fan of the first Last of Us. To top it off the whole campaign of revenge leads to no revenge at all and Ellie just lets her go because that's what someone would do witnessing her father like figure being brutally tortured then killed right in front of you.The director Neil Drucann is openly taunting fans and completely being immature about this situation… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Good: the graphics are the most beautiful you will ever see, the gameplay mechanics are the same as the last game but a bit better, and some scenes are just amazing (for example the flashbacks).
    Sound, Ambient, Music is just top Perfect for The Last of Us.

    The (HORRIBLY) Bad: The story, and this is BAD, its a narrative game, the story is the most important thing.
    SPOILERS, Joel is killed by Abby, a new character, she is the daughter of one of the surgeons Joel killed in the first game, okay, she seeked revenge, but the writing of the story lets her do it so easy it's disrespectful to the character of Joel, he and his brother acted dumb before Joel's death, and Abby does it so early in the game, well thats the way the story starts, pretty **** but well, oh wait, the game forces you to play as her, and let her get everything she wants, oh she wants to beat Ellie and her girlfriend even though they are our favorite characters, and what's even worse, Ellie even when she nearly dies, killed all of Abby's friends and boyfriend, and encounters with a weaker Abby, she doesn't get her revenge, she doesn't kill Abby, Abby didn't even wanted to fight, and still got away, again Abby gets everything she wants despite us the player hating her for what she did to Joel, what an disappointing ending.

    What they did to Joel and Ellie is just disrespectful to the character, how they changed them to a completely new and horrible character that is Abby.

    It breaks my heart that I have to give this score to the sequel of one of my favorite games, If not my #1 favorite game.    … Expand

    Don’t listen to the hate! If you loved the characters and story from the first one you will love this one as well! And it throws you pretty swiftly into a room full of clickers so an “oh yeah I remember this” moment is imminent!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Tiene buenos gráficos, pero nada más. La jugabilidad es del 2013 y las mejoras añadidas al combate cuerpo a cuerpo no son lo suficiente como para sentirse como una renovación, obviamente es divertido (porque el primero lo era), pero se siente viejo a pesar de ser un juego nuevo.

    Pero lo peor de este juego es la historia y el desarrollo de personajes, para que se entienda mejor: estamos en un mundo post-apocaliptico, no hay comida, no hay agua y si no estas enfrentado a zombies, estás enfrentando contra personas que quieren tus suminstros, en este contexto Ellie desarrolla un instinto de supervivencia donde es capaz de matar a cualquiera que represente una mínima amenaza para ella o para la gente que quiere.
    Sabiendo lo anterior, una imbécil (Abby) que le importa más la venganza, mata brutalmente a las personas que amas, destruye la vida "tranquila" que tanto les había costado crear a todos, te arranca los dedos mientras te enfrentas a duelo a muerte justamente para vengar todo el daño que te hizo. ¿Qué haría Ellie en esa situación? la mataría, ¿qué hizo Ellie? pues... La deja ir.

    Eso no tiene sentido, ya que nunca se desarrolló a Ellie para que entendiera que la venganza no traería ninguna satisfacción, no se desarrolló para que entendiera que la brutalidad que ella y Joel llevaron a cabo en el primer juego traería consigo resentimiento, dolor y por ende, venganza y que era algo que tenían que esperar, no se desarrolló para que dejara de lado ese instinto de supervivencia.

    A mi no me molesta que Joel haya muerto, al final el contexto del mundo sustenta la crueldad y frialdad, y tu jugablemente lo estas justificando, matas a todo lo que sea enemigo. Lo que me molesta es que a último minuto y sin justificación cambien la personalidad de un personaje.    … Expand

    Perfect masterpiece IMO. I've actually played and completed the game. Currently 7% of players (the trophy you get for completing the game) have actually completed it... So how people think they have the right to review the game without playing it I'll never know. I loved this game entirely. Didn't look at leaks and didn't bother hearing other people's opinions.

Just got the game and played it entirely. This world is dark but ... That's the entire point. This isn't Uncharted, this is a different, very dark tone and they got it spot on. The game itself is perfect gameplay wise and graphics but It's clear it's the story that's on everyone's mind. *SPOILERS AHEAD* - I loved the story. Again 10/10 personally. I'm glad ND didn't give away the plot point at the beginning at it made me feel something. Anger. I wanted vengeance. Only to get through the game and for ND to masterfully display that other characters in the game had real and truly captivating and justifiable motives. Vengeance goes around back and forth between these two groups. By the end, I wanted Ellie to let it go as only someone (maybe Lev) would come back for more vengeance... Right when Ellie finally has that upper hand and Abby's life in her hands... She lets go. Perfect. That's story done right. Just because people hate the painful world TLoU2 creates, just even more emphasises how good this game world was created. People confuse the two with the game itself. Which is the biggest snowflake, pathetic adherence to other people's make believe opinions from agenda, I HAVE EVER HEARD OF IN A VIDEO GAME.… Expand

    The gameplay is just as good as the first game. While it isn't anything special it gets the job done. Animations are incredibly fluid. Once you get the hang of it you can easily pull off something that looks like a scripted choreographed fight straight out of the cut scene. Graphics are the best that the PS4 will ever see, and if this game makes it to PS5 it'll still be one of the bestThe gameplay is just as good as the first game.

Once you get the hang of it you can easily pull off something that looks like a scripted choreographed fight straight out of the cut scene. Graphics are the best that the PS4 will ever see, and if this game makes it to PS5 it'll still be one of the best looking games. "Levels" are incredibly detailed. The lack of multiplayer currently sucks.

    I won't go too into detail about that story. All I'll say is it wasn't for me. I see what they were going for but it was executed poorly. Every point I could make has already been made by multiple content creators and independent critics. While there are a minority of people hating on the game just to hate and because of it's inclusion, every negative review shouldn't be written off like they are. The ending made me feel like everything I did was pointless. There are legitimate reasons to dislike this game. There are plenty of reasons to like it.

    The game is also structured poorly. Right when things are starting to happen when you've got past the rising action and you're about to get to the climax, you're sent right back to the beginning and get another 10-15 hours of exposition and rising action again that ultimately leads back to the climax you were about to see 15 hours ago. I feel like if this game was reordered to be more chronological, it would have been much more well-received.

    Without getting into spoilers, Naughty Dogs' blatant false advertising of what this game would be cannot be excused. They could have handled the situation better, and more clearly represented what the game would be without spoiling it.

    I didn't hate the game. I also didn't love it. Some of the outrage is ridiculous. The game isn't a 0/10, it's no 10/10 either. It's a brave sequel. Just not what most people would consider a "successful" one. Things that made the first game so great to a lot of people, like Joel and Ellie's relationship is put on the back burner in favor of a subpar revenge/forgiveness plot. There are obvious plot holes that shouldn't be overlooked or excused.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. La historia es buena, sangrienta, triste y con toque de venganza. En si el juego se trata de eso, venganza por parte de Ellie y de Abby.
    Solo puedo decir que duele que hallan matado al héroe de la película, tiene demasiadas confusiones (al menos para mi), la compañía de Naughty Dog se la jugo demasiado con agregar Flashback durante casi toda la historia, tanto al principio como al final (solo el ultimo Flashback fue mi favorito :( ).
    Hay varias muertes por ambos bandos muchos de ellos fueron amigos cercanos de nuestras protagonistas, que cada vez te daba una rabia en encontrar al culpable. Pero bue ya sabemos el final...
    Lo único que queda decir es que no me duele... me quema, me lastima que hallan matado a mi héroe. Esperemos que la siguiente entrega o DLC que vallan a sacar sea algo mucho mas que solo la venganza, y tenga una buena historia como la anterior porque si o si habrá otra parte.

    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]
