    Passable game-play with terrible story. Can't even bring myself to play it anymore. Spend 7 years making a worse game.

    While playing this game I was hooked by the story, it is a well written story, with it moments that seem forced, I'm all for diversity in a game, as long as it's done well, and having Abbie to become the playable character in the se one half was a bad move, as her character wasn't the best written, and the way they ruined everything TLU1 established hurt me as a fan, having Joel die and then ellie but it just was too over the top and the sex scenes were not needed at all.


    For the gameplay it's simple too simple with slight improvements from the first a game doesn't have to be complex in its gameplay but it has to be done well, and the simple controls get repetitive too quickly which just left me getting bored.

    it's an average game with a good story its weakness is its gameplay and force of diversity which if done right could of been amazing    … Expand

    Worst game ever. 30 fps, upscale 1080p to 4K, corridor tps, awful scenario.

    Just for the sake of good old times. Otherwise it's ruined. This doesn't exist and TLOU ended on first part.

    The Last of Us 2 was probably the most disappointing game I've ever played to this day. The gameplay and graphics are really good but you have to understand this is a sequel, not a new IP. The story of this game is absolutely disgusting and stupid which disrespects the previous game in so many ways. I'm definitely going to return the game and I really can't recommend it to anyone.

    SGW ruined this game. Its make just for Nill Druckmunn and his friends, not for PLAYERS. Awful story, politics infusion in game, new characters is very bad. Gameplay from 2013. Only graphics is pretty good. But main part of this game is STORY and it was ruined by LGBT community. 20 hours - and it is a full game?

    Joel didn't deserve to die. His character acts out of proportion in Neil's wish to get him killed. Too few Joel scenes and most of them shows his tension with Ellie. The first guitar scene and the museum flashbacks are the only meaningful art of this game. The rest are out of proportion and twisted to fit Neil's agenda. Too many plot holes for me to cover them one by one. I did my best toJoel didn't deserve to die. His character acts out of proportion in Neil's wish to get him killed. Too few Joel scenes and most of them shows his tension with Ellie. The first guitar scene and the museum flashbacks are the only meaningful art of this game. The rest are out of proportion and twisted to fit Neil's agenda. Too many plot holes for me to cover them one by one. I did my best to review some of the most blatant plot holes in my previous comments and posts.

    Gameplay-wise, it's very appealing. World building is top notch and the exploration part is painstakingly fine-tuned. Kudos to the team for creating such a commited landscapes and setting. But the story is crap, with a nihilistic ending leaving a hole in your chest and a bitter aftertaste in your mouth. I had to play the first game and currently am reading meaningful, story-centered fanfics after finishing it all just to cleanse this **** out of my system.

    New infected Shambler and Point Zero Crap blows off the realistic overview of the fungal infection. Cordyceps fungi has immunosuppression properties which allows it to bypass lung defenses, passes into the blood stream, into the CSF, and finally to the amygala and limbic system. When the fungi infects human amygdala it stimulates aggression and overrides conscious control the body, reverting the evolution of a sensible human mind back into one akin of a beast.

    So far, the four stages of infected are realistic with their behavior displaying apex predator. The Shambler and the new infected shatters the realistic background of infected firmly established by TLOU1. Such a poor decision to weave Resident Evil's monstrosity just for shock value.

    The tone of this game is very grim. I'd recommend for players who are currently having a hard time with their mental health to hold off playing this for a while. I was leaked about that early scene when I was studying for a test. I didn't flunk it but I could've achieved more. Anyway, I made peace with it and now am looking forward to new fanfictions that'd surely overcome Neil's horrendous writing.    … Expand

    The good: graphics, aesthetics, models, level design

    The okay: gameplay (not much has changed, janky AI, nothing innovative really)

    The worst of the worst possible things in the history of video games: story, plot, characters

    You had 7 years Naughty Dog ... 7 fu*king years...

    The Last of Us Part II is the sequel of the previous game "The Last of Us"
    Ok, first the gameplay,visual,music,graphic i give it a solid 9/10
    But.... for the story oh boy, one of the worst story in the gaming industry. Too much milking of LGBT and SJW community so sad...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is the biggest disrespect to the fans of the first one. The main reason fans fell in love with the first game was the bond between Joel and Ellie. And they went off to kill Joel in tye first two hours of the game?? This is the GoT season 8 of video games! Rubbish. Screw Neil Drukman and his forced agendas.… Expand

    I feel like I was betrayed and stabbed in the back. I cringed in the start, I am half way through the game and still cringing. Each step feels like the knife is being twisted and dugs deep in my heart. The environmental looks good but the pain does not stop. I feel nauseous.

    Woke culture ruins another game. First game had one of the best stories in the gaming but this one... oh boy I don’t even know how to begin. It’s like they intentionally ruined everything good just to pander to sjw culture. This game is just horrible and a big F to real gamers and fans.

    Completely disrespects the last game, wasn't fun, would not recommend
    This game had potential, but the fact this game seems insistent on being misery porn and seeing needless suffering just for the sake of it. And the fact no character ever learns from any acts taken, the fact the game tries to guilt you for decisions taken out of your hands i am left asking, why even bother making this?

I can understand why joel is die, but you should be show respect who saves abby's life. She does not mention about it who takes risk to save unknown person. Even he is enemy. Kill with one bullets his head. Then we can understand abby's situation or something. But naughtydog is using anger for joel's terrible death. So player can consentrate playibg revenge for joel's death. It is very simple and easy way to concentrate player's attention. But it's too simple so it can not contain various meaning or aspect of related characters. So concentrated with ellie, it is distinguish thing play who killed joel and make him grinded meat pie. So if you play This game, game will sucked you mind and experience what's the failure of story telling… 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]
