    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have actually played this game through the beginning to the end. I’m not just some fan that’s watched a bunch of YouTube videos coming here to throw around ‘SJW’ and give it a 1/10. This game is great. Not comparable to the first, but great. The main big gripe I see with most reviews is the death of Joel. If you played the game, you would know why Joel met his demise. Put yourself in Abby’s shoes. If someone killed your father, you would go out of your way to end this persons life. That is exactly what Abby did, and in a way she’s justified in her actions even though I do have love for Joel. Joel killed her father. Abby's entire backstory is painted throughout the entirety game, so you come to understand why she feels the way she does. At the beginning of the game, I hated her. But throughout the game as you play through her sections, her backstory is fleshed out so you get a better understanding of her actions and reasonings. I came to like her almost as much as Ellie by the final scene. Joel was selfish for killing everyone at the hospital to save Ellie, but I also understand why he did. Also, for the plot holes. The only one I keep seeing is about Ellie wearing a gas mask. Again, if you played the game, you would understand because this is brought up about halfway through the game. Joel tells Ellie to always keep her mask on near spores Incase they run into another survivor. Ellie’s immunity is still a secret in this game. Towards the end of the game, after playing as both Ellie and Abby for hours and hours, I came to sympathize with the both of them. They were both doing what they thought was right because of the death of a loved one, even though Abby kept sparing Ellie’s life but Ellie could not let it go and kept going on her revenge quest which eventually in the end made her lose most things she loved. There are NO SJW themes in this game whatsoever. There is NO cult of Christians that are going around killing people because 'they're gay' like most leakers are saying. Abby has the body structure she does because ever since the day Joel killed her dad, instead of sitting on the sidelines and doing nothing she's been training every single day non stop for the day she meets Joel. I would give this game an 8.5/10, but Im giving it a 10 on here to offset the people, most who haven't even played the game, giving this game a 1 for something they know nothing about. This is explained in the game. I felt bad for Ellie towards the end, but that was the predicament she kept putting herself and the people around her in over and over again. If you set out for revenge, you best dig two graves.… Expand

    To appreciate the storyline you have to be a mature person, so if you are not save your money and don't write unnecessary reviews.

    - GAMEPLAY The gameplay is just awesome. Naughty Dog has mixed the gameplay mechanics of The Last of Us and Uncharted 4, added new animations and made everything faster and smoother. You have the impression of being in a movie.

    - GAMEPLAY
    The gameplay is just awesome. Naughty Dog has mixed the gameplay mechanics of The Last of Us and Uncharted 4, added new animations and made everything faster and smoother. You have the impression of being in a movie. I tried doing things like jumping over an enemy from a roof and it actually worked. The silenced gun allows you new tactics, for example you can grab one enemy, threaten another with the gun and kill both silently. These things are not explained, so you have to find out for yourself and I find it simply amazing.
    There are multiple enemies, with different guns, abilities etc. Dogs make stealth missions more interesting.
    Now you can jump, lie down, go under a car or hide in grass so there are more possibilities to defeat enemies.
    Often the areas are very large, making the game a kind of mini open world.

    - GRAPHICS
    I played the game on standard PS4 and the graphics are just amazing. It looks like a new gen videogame. The level design is awesome, every house is different from the others. Facial expressions and animations are the best ever made in a video game so far, it makes it more realistic and makes you identify even more in the story.

    - STORYLINE
    If you expect the usual story where the protagonist saves everyone and becomes a hero then don't buy it. The story takes up some themes from the first The Last of Us, such as the fact that nobody is perfect, everyone is human. Joel and Ellie may be heroes for us, but they are enemies of other people. To emphasize this, they show us the story from other perspectives.
    The main theme is revenge. But it is much more complicated than that. It is the description of human psychology and its evolution over the course of events. The narrative, as for the first chapter, is spectacular
    I don't say anything else to avoid spoilers

    - A. I.
    Alive. The world is simply alive.
    The enemies talk to each other, communicate, look for us, despair if one of their companions dies or if they are injured. When you kill someone, you feel it on your conscience. It is so realistic.
    Dogs simply act like real dogs.
    Your travel companions are real, they talk to you and keep you company. You never feel like you're in a video game.
    The only stupid beings (deliberately) are the infected, which do not reflect and appear clumsy.

    - SOUND
    I finished the game and am continuing to hear the music of the game on spotify. Perhaps for personal tastes I preferred those of the first chapter, but these are perfect for this darker video game.
    Ambient sounds are made with impressive precision and quality. If you have surround headphones, use them and you will realize that what you have in front of you is not a video game, but a real world.

    - DETAILS
    Details are the things that make a great video game, a masterpiece. They might not have put the squirrel on the tree, the rat in the bathroom or the floating plastic bag carried by the wind. But they did it.
    If you kill someone on the snow, the blood is absorbed by it and, being hot, it melts it.
    I tried to get on one thing (I can't say what) completely by chance, and there was a real cutscene for this. An impressive attention to detail
    There are other details that I let you discover for yourself, also because some of them are real spoilers.

    - CONCLUSION
    In my opinion, The Last of Us Part II is at least the game of the generation.
    It may not be a game suitable for everyone, but if you love a powerful storyline, full of emotions, surrounded by an exceptional technical sector and gameplay, then it is the right game for you.

    This games is very, very very good. The history is amazing. gameplay is wonderfull. The grafics and ambiences(RTS ON) is equal a movie. the best seller from games. You don't like? You play? ..So congrats for your opinion. For case the justice, this game would like received among 7.0 ou 7.6. But many notes below 4.0, typically to harm without any foundation

    Probably the best game I've ever played. The story is incredible, exraordinarily mature; it can be liked or not but it certainly establishes a new standard for the storytelling.
    The gameplay is perfect, with stealth and chaotic moments perfectly alternated.
    This is an absolute masterpiece, maybe the best game for this generation

    People are mad that this game “throws away everything the first game leads up to” but it does not at all. The story doesn’t pick up where you’d expect it to but over the course of the game you’re brought up to speed on what happened in between where the first game leaves off and this game picks up. I’m guessing most negative reviews didn’t play far enough into the game to know this andPeople are mad that this game “throws away everything the first game leads up to” but it does not at all.

A Ellie foi assombrada pela imagem do Joel sendo morto, aquela imagem motivou ela a fazer tudo o que fez, mesmo sabendo que a Abby teve um motivo forte. No momento final, quando ia matar ela, veio na cabeça dela uma imagem boa, como se fosse um alívio, e com isso conseguiu deixar pra trás a sede de vingança.

    Mano, que história foda e complexa. Isso é uma obra de arte, e como toda boa arte ela reflete sobre a realidade.

Ningun juego de esta generacion logro hacer en mi lo que hizo the last of us part 2, me mantuvo siempre interesado en su historia, me creo emociones encontradas, ademas de tener un exelente gameplay... despues de terminar la primera mitad del juego con Ellie y empezar a jugar con Abby pense que se habian cagado en el juego, pero ese sentimiento solo duro unos 15 minutos. La historia de abby fue muy buena, para mi concepto llego a tener momentos mas epicos que con Ellie, por ejemplo la pelea en el hospital contra el primer infectado, el momento en el que escapabas de la isla. En fin al momento de ir a pelear contra Ellie llegue hasta sentirla la mala del juego.

    Definitivamente el juego quedo abierto para una tercera entrega. Ojalá y así sea.    … 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]
