    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Here goes my review after playing it for a long time . The first game was really good, and the second too. What makes me give it a 0? How to mess up a whole history that has been developed for many years in a couple of minutes. The game play, the graphics , places , characters, and everything was perfect for me , but it’s hard to see how you can mess a game so much just changing the merely history , just for that , all the hard work of animators , creators and more stuff comes to the trash just for a bad ending and I wasn’t expecting it to be a happy ending , but either the worse ending I have ever seen , I might not be able to understand the true meaning to this ending but for me it was crap, I tried to defend this game from a long time but after this, all that I can say is “ buy it if you want to spend some couple of hours enjoying a good gameplay and not caring about the history then buy it . But if you are looking for a master piece history then please make your self a favor and don’t buy it Expand

    This game is incredible. The story, the animations and graphics, the gameplay, the acting... I could go on. The only issue I had with it is there was a little bit too much world building through reading notes. It sometimes felt if you wanted to experience the full story you had to stop your progression through the game every few steps so you can stop and read a note

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolute crap story tbh,Character’s actions don’t make sense and No I’m not saying this cause Joel died
    What Joel would have wanted?
    Lmfao damn you’re dumb
    Even Ellie herself told Tommy that “If it was one of us,Joel would have been midway through Seattle”
    Joel would have never forgave Abby for killing ellie,Tf you talking about
    The story is absolute bs
    A lot of things don’t make sense at all
    Joel and Tommy trust a whole ass gang and enter their lodge just like that? (keep in mind Joel didn’t trust ellie when they first met lol) a gang that is out near Jackson for absolutely no reason you trust them with your names and where you live,Wow Ellie’s story is so similar to top Characters Kratos and John Wick
    And guess what?These 2 never stopped till they got revenge.
    Did they know there were consequences?
    Yes they did
    Did they still take the revenge road?
    Absolutely and they have nothing to regret
    The game is about Forgiveness?? Lmao
    Then why did the character who forgave loses everything while the other who got revenge got away and will probably live happily ever after with lev and the fireflies while Ellie Lost Joel,Tommy,Jesse,Dina & JJ,Her finger and the ability to play the guitar which was the only thing left from Joel btw and pretty much herself
    Yeah exactly poor writing.
    You know,Those 3 characters had their enemy between their hands.
    Let’s see what each did
    Kratos:Beat the **** out of his “FATHER” till he died
    John Wick:Shot the dude who Killed his “PUPPY” instantly Ellie:AbBy i’Ll lEt YoU gO ._.
    This story is so bad lmao
    Notice how I said “Father” and “puppy”?
    Cause if Kratos was not willing to forgive his father and John couldn’t let go of a Puppy then Ellie surely shouldn’t have let Abby live.
    And you guys notice how all Males die (Expect Tommy who gets paralyzed) I just found that interesting And the story doesn’t make sense at all when you think about Our mentality (as humans)
    Pretty sure most of us would kill the hell out of Abby if we were Ellie,Cause if someone kills someone close to me and I have him/her between my mercy,I would torture them to death.
    And that’s why this game sucks.

    Bad story, for being poorly built on the current political agenda. It is bad where the first one was very good.

    Playing this game makes me suffer. Especially the plot holes in the end, that makes no freaking sense. And that “shrek woman” is the worst part of this game. I don’t know if this game is for SJWs only or what, but in conclusion it does not worth buying.

    Beautiful game, the devs and technical guys did a great Job but you don't pay 69 Euros for this game to look at the environment, these kind of games are all about the story which is absolutely horrible in every way and doesn't make any sense especially the ending, if you're a fan of the first one DON'T PLAY THIS !!!

    the story of this game is completely garbage, the fact that this is supposed to be a story based game yet the story itself is the worst thing about it is why its just not worth it. The 2nd half where you play as Abby is trash as she's just an unlikeable character all around which doesn't make the game fun. Also wtf was that ending?

    This felt like watching the rape of a old friend.
    The story was bad to say the least, and even though the gameplay was good, it couldn't save this game.

    Nothing new in the gameplay. The story wants to be surprising but in the bad way. I like the inclusion of certain collectives. Good graphics but the trailers looks better than the game. I think I'm not buying a game from Naughty Sony again...

Nothing we loved from the original game is in this one. What we earned and fell in love with in the first narrative was literally and figuratively destroyed in this fundamentally flawed narrative. This on the level of Game Of Thrones series finale disappointment. I don't mind about the political, trans, SJW elements, or even the death of a character. I thought they were all brave and engaging choices. The visuals/art of the game are incredible as well. Nothing wrong with the technical. What I have a problem is the lazy, heavy handed, hollow, and failed narrative it TRIES to pull off at the end. It blows my mind that they couldn't see this coming. Did they really think they could introduce us to a new character/narrative that is SOO good that we forget what we fell in love with in the first game and are willing to forgive the destruction of that. If Neil/ND are actually going to take their own 'moral of the story' from this game, then there shouldn't be a Part 3 or any humans dying in the hands of our protagonist in any of their games from now on. They killed their own franchise. And their fanbase. Unforgivable. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game unfortunately tried to re-write the first game... not for the better.

    Ellie was the best part of this game.

    Joel's death and showing him as a trusting person who is willing to help others is not true to his character and this game ruined everything that was great about the first one.

    I cant help but feel this game was more about virtue signalling then paying respect to the gamers who waiting years for this sequel.

    If I could give this a lower score I would.

    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]
