    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The destroyed the story that was built during the events of the first game. They killed the protagonist with afterthought reasons just because they wanted to, not because it was necessary for the story, and then forced you to play half the game with his killer. They have you watch a pregnant woman smoking marijuana. The story is inconsistent and at several points they kill men just because they are men. It is a videogame that teaches hate and it deserves nothing more than 0. Expand

    A disappointing sequel filled with a disgusting agenda: men bad, white people bad and racists and homophobes. Other than that, I think Naughty Dog should keep doing politically charged games! It's not like those racists are going to alienate their main base and sink their company in the ground.

    I'm sorry, but I can say only one thing about this game. This is a fkn piece of sh*t. I used to be a fan of Naughty Dog, very big fan. Ofc I was very huge lover of TLOU, but second part is really such a sh*t, that I threw my PS 4 Pro in garbage container and that isn't joke. I bought it only because of TLOU 2 and they destroyed my favourite game... Thank you, don't buy this piece of crap...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Настолько плохой сюжет который вдобавок нелогичный и нереалистичный можно было придумать только намеренно чтобы поиздеваться над людьми которым нравилась первая часть.
    Во второй половине игры ещё заставляют играть за персонажа который вызывает только ненависть и отвращение. Критикам явно занесли баблишка да ещё и игра рекламировалась на каналах которые смотрят дети хотя некоторым людям она своей неоправданной и бессмысленной жестокостью в кат-сценах может испортить не только настроение.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you evaluate the game separately from TLOU 1, then the work itself deserves 7 points out of 10. But! But if you perceive the game as a sequel to the GAME OF THE DECADE, then this is simply a failure.

    Joel: "Ellie? You didn’t even avenge me? It would be better if I left you with the fireflies."

    You never gave me a choice.
    You made the wrong choice.Can you do it?
    You are making the story fall into the user's fallacy.
    I wouldn't have known if the order of the game was different.

    The wait was not worth it. The crunch and abuse of countless developers during a pandemic was not worth it. The story is awfully written, there’s little logic to it and you end up not caring about any of the characters. I can barely even remember half their names. If you like senseless torture p*rn, this is tour game.

    The fact that the developers are doubling down, saying “lalala I can’t hear you” to any criticism and only listening to unchallenging praise and bootlicking leaves a disgusting feeling in the pit of my stomach. Don’t buy this product.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Finished the game. Having been developing indie video games for almost 9 years, I can confirm that although the graphics, sound design, gameplay mechanics, and the soundtrack is 10/10, the way that the story is implemented is not good at all. If you're planning to kill a legendary character(you don't actually have to), kill it in a legendary way. Joel is a character that everyone loves and cares about. People who have waited for 7 years for this game are disappointed and the game is not worth a dime from their perspective. This game is a storytelling game and without a proper story, even though all the aspects are perfect, it doesn't appeal to us. We should not be forced to play as a character that we don't like either. This game could've been at least a tiny bit better if it gave us choices at the critical points along with the story so that we could either save Joel or lose him because of making a mistake. There are many games out there that implemented the butterfly effect. No doubt that Naughty Dog could've done it as well. I guess it's all the director's fault. Expand

    Never been so disappointed about a game. What a poor story, completely betrayed the original. Of course the graphics gameplay acting are good but it means nothing with this kind of story.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I never thought I would ever say in my life that I hate The Last of us. They took everything that made the first one a masterpiece and just threw it in the trashcan. This is a failure in storytelling a disrespectful to the OG one and to us the players. Nothing makes sense. The whole game just tries to introduce us to a new character without giving it any dimension while the game tries super hard to just trash Elie for no reason. If at least they tried to give Abby dimension, character development instead of just making her a zebra savior and dog person. I can't believe they managed to ruin this game. I was defending the game until half when I saw that instead of choosing the path of good writing they chose the path of trying to manipulate the players. This is one of the most poorly written game I have ever played and the biggest game disappointment ever. I'm mad I threw my money away for that crappy game. I will never buy an ND game ever again. What they did is just so disrespectful to all the players who waited sooo long for this second part to happen. It's just a big slap in the face. Expand

Worst game I've ever played if I'd want to make a storyteller game at least they should make a consistent story and a better decision making, playing as Abby was a big mistake, it doesn't matter what Joel did you just can't force player to kill him. Enough when all the suckers saying this is mature and a masterpiece this game is horrible and just an ideology seller they poop on everything that make the last of us great Expand

    Story is all over the place, pacing isn't tight like the first game's, zero character development from main and minor cast, flip floppy character motivations, rushed deaths with no emotional impact, the game is a complete slog and drags on too far, dialogue is hit or miss, characters operate on what the story tells them to do and not by their pre-set actions and motivations, and much more.Story is all over the place, pacing isn't tight like the first game's, zero character development from main and minor cast, flip floppy character motivations, rushed deaths with no emotional impact, the game is a complete slog and drags on too far, dialogue is hit or miss, characters operate on what the story tells them to do and not by their pre-set actions and motivations, and much more.

    Nothing is coherent, there's no harmonizing quality to this, the story and gameplay aren't "married" as well as it was in the first game. Vacuum or not, this game fails on its own merits, let alone as a sequel.

    amazingly bad. gameplay is good but the story is **** its like watching the original ghost busters then watching the new one. the new one is dog **** The way that the media have handled this has been appalling as well. Anyone who doesnt like the game has been branded a trans-phobic, homophobic piece of crap when in reality its just the ****e story line.

    Neil Druckmann is an egotistical moron who ruined this franchise, and will most assuredly take Naughty Dog down along with it.

    From Crash, to Jak, to Uncharted to even TLOU1... then this travesty happens.

    A downward spiral is beginning, and this man is the source of it all.

    Bad story, bad plot, lots of visual bugs, this game look and feel like a movie, a 30 hours story that could be told in 10 hours or even less. The world is very bad designed, comparising with the first game, and look even worse in a base ps4. I finished this game and I don't get what is the point, "Revenge is bad, forgive is good"? Don't buy this game, it's a total waste of money.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I enjoyed the first half of the game, until I had to play as Abby. For the entire 10 hours of her story I hated her, no amount of pandering or attempts to make me empathize with her worked. My only feeling for her as a character was seething hatred as I realized she was going to be half of the **** game. The only way I could make the second half fun for myself was by killing Abby in as many forms as I could. Especially when you are FORCED to beat the **** out Ellie. The game looks and plays great, but the soul that existed in the first one clearly died. There was no character development that could match up to the last game. Since they added too many new characters and killed them off before they could earn my respect. I regret my decision to buy this, and I immediately deleted it after finishing. Expand

    Everything that makes this a good game is there. But the pacing and the story falls short if its potential and it treats the fans like they are idiots. There is a boring and stupid back and forth between characters and the 2 story lines that never reaches a solid conclusion in the end. The LGBT representation is really good specially Lev (I'm not sure about Ellie and Dina). But thisEverything that makes this a good game is there.

But this representation feels like they did it for the marketing and to get good reviews, awards and coverage (which I'm sure they didn't intended to do).
    The graphics are really good and the acting is top notch. The music is beautiful the sound design is dynamic.
    My honest score is 8 out of 10 but the story treated me (a real fan of the first game) like an idiot and I don't like it. That's why I'm giving it a 0 out of 10.

    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]
