    This is an absolute abomination.

    Sony and Naughty Dog bribe the media to give the game glowing reviews, but the consumers see right through their corruption. What a terrible way to end the PS4 era.

    Хорошая игра, которая может держать интригу. Тебе всегда будет интересно, как закончиться новая история старых персонажей. Приятная графика и интересный геймплей затягивает на долго. Всем рекомендую.

Las temáticas son tediosas, y para gente de amplio criterio, todo en este juego es desgracia, una historia aterradora pero no en el sentido emocionante, en el sentido nefasto y falto de conciencia. Los que hicieron este juego son unos enfermos y no me refiero a el equipo de desarrollo en si, sino al capt'n crunch y a la mujer que escribió la historia, lamentable que juegos como este lleguen con una calificación qué no sea Adults Only.… Expand

    Naughty dog does it again! Don't listen to the rest of these easily offended cry babies who can't come up with their own opinion. Always try to go into something new with an open mind and make your opinion. Great gameplay and another look at the harsh realities of a post apocalyptic world with more heart wrenching moments.

They also decided to put social justice warrior cult-like ideas in the game. Some fan favorite characters gets killed, wich is fine, but the way they handled it was extremely poor and in bad taste, because they only did it for shock value. There's also less ''puzzlelike'' ways to travel through the city like in the first game. This time around, there's an industry revolutionary ''jump button'' and a rope that you can use to solve these puzzles, but they are boring and really easy to figure out wich makes these section of the game feel like their whole purpose is to artificially extend the lenght of the game. overall, this feels like a bellow average game with less features and worse story/characters.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Ok. Here we are after 7 Years. First of. I never have never done a review for a Game before. But I´m a huge The Last of Us Fan. I finished the first Part on the PS3 3 Times and the Remastered 2 Times. The first Part is not perfect. The KI is dull and the gameplay kinda repetive. But the story is one of the best and emotionally touching ones i have encountered in the Video Game Industry. And I have to say, i was massively hyped for the second Part. And now. After finishing it i decided to write my first Review to express my dissapointment. Notice: This is my personal Opinion and nothing more.
    So the Last of Us Part 2 is graphics wise a beautiful game. The Apocalypse looks absolutly stunning. It is detailed and believable. The Motion Capturing is top Tier. The Facial expressions are just great. The sequences of Ellie and Yoel are just what i expected and bring back the warm feeling i have developed for the characters during the first Game.
    And unfortunaly thats the only positive points i have for this Game. The Character of Abby is just.......... I dont know. I came never to the point where i started to sympathize with her. The game really tries to show you her perspective, for example when you see the Hospital scene from the first Game with diffrent eyes, but for me she just stays the character that killed Joel. I have no problem with Joel dying. I expected it from this Game. But not in this way. What leads me to the biggest Problem i have with this Game.
    The Story. Goddammit. if anyone of you reading this works as a Writer for a Game Studio, Movie Studio or Comics. PLEASE TAKE NOTES: SUBVERTING EXPECTATIONS DOES NOT MAKE AUTOMATICALLY A GOOD STORY! Seriously we have edured enough of this **** The Story is a classic Circle of Revenge. Nothing wrong. The Story of Part 1 wasnt Groundbreaking either. But Part 1 was well written and Part 2 is not. In Part 1 you had moments of joy, moments of grim, loud moments, silent moments. Part 2 is misery Porn. And it uses the shocks. Remember Ellie killing David in Part 1? Like we dont see the dismembered Face? It was left to your Imagination. Part 2 shows off the violence like nothing before. I have no Problem with violence in Storys as long as it has a purpose. Remember Spec Ops the line? The Phosphore Scene? This was violence used well. The Last of us uses violence in a pornographic way. Loud, vulgar for the shock effect. In the End, after all the wortk and all the killings to hunt down Abby, Ellie realises Killing is bad and spare abbys life. Like really? After loosing Wife, Kid, Father Figure, two finger Abby is allowed to drive off with a boat to live happily after? Thats your great story Naughty Dog really? Really? That is some Bull**** an edgy 14 year old would write for his "deep and emotional" fan fiction. Which leads me to my next point of critic.The dialogues. Man who is responsible for this? By god the lord allmighty. The same 14 Year old responsible for the Story? I have read FanFictions with better dialogues. Its just. The ****
    My neutral Point is the Gameplay. It is not revolutionary but. Well I guess i have seen worse. And the gameplay of the first part was also a pain in the ass from time to time.
    All in All not a bad Game with beautiful graphics, medicore gameplay that wants to much and shokes on its own ambitions. As a sequel absolutly terrible, as a video game ok. Dont waste 65 Euro and wait till its for free with PS Plus or on sale.
    And i have no idea how it got this 100 scores from the professional reviewers.    … Expand

    Graphics great. Everything else was bad. Makes you immediately hate the new characters and not care about them at all, but then forces you to play as/with them for the majority of the game. They went full GoT/Last Jedi with the story

    To be honest, I watched the full play through before the game was officially released. After the "watch-through", I have my views on the story and characters but wanted to experience the gameplay myself to feel if the "game" felt good (I've already pre-ordered and I skipped a lot of the combat areas during the "watch through").

    about 10 hours into the game, I think I have a fair idea how to rate the game. The graphics and animations are excellent. The motion capture and performance, great. The gameplay however, is quite repetitive and not really different from TLOU part 1. The jump button is over-hyped.

    Back to the story. The story is mehhh. typical revenge story with an ending that will make you go WTF? Character development is weird.. And they became all so dumb and stupid in part 2. Why is Joel making bad decisions when he is a seasoned survivor?

    Basically, if you asked me, "Do you enjoy playing this game?" The answer is, not really.. It's brutal, repetitive and the story does not make me feel good. So how am I going to "enjoy" this game? Compared to FF7 Remake which gave me laughs, nostalgia, emotional moments and great combat, I enjoyed FF7 WAY WAY more. That game gave me a good time and TLOU2 didn't.

    Definitely not 10/10 like what the critic reviews are saying. Wanted to give it a 5 but the thought of how they killed off one of the characters pissed me the hell off, and it drops to 4    … 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]
