    Everything is good, except the story.

    The Story is pure Garbage.

    It a Revenge story with no Revenge at the end..

    I have no word to say how disappointed I am. Waiting for this game since I was 15 in 2013, just to see Naughty dog spitting on my beloved characters. Congratulations rest of the team, gameplay and graphics are great. I feel sorry for you even more, hope that you can find a place where you can connect your talent with some great story.

    Don't listen to all the negative user reviews - they haven't even played the game.
    TLOU Part 2 is a masterpiece and a milestone in interactive storytelling. A game that will have an enormous impact on the industry. Go play it. Now.

    The game tries too hard to subvert your expectations in the most tasteless way. The main writer simply misunderstood what the fans loved about the game. It was always the dynamic of Joe and Ellie alone, not this over the top revenge story that's far-fetched.

    This game is far from a 10/10 masterpiece, literally their trailers are a scam, joel doesn't even appear in the scenes from the trailers, they massacred all characters development for an agenda and a generic revenge story that even sh*** anime makes better

    Anyone giving any game 100 or 10 are not to be trusted. There is no such thing as a perfect video game. That said, TLOU2 has a lot going for it.

There is no such thing as a perfect video game. That said, TLOU2 has a lot going for it. It is beautifully rendered, the level design is excellent, and the gameplay is about what one would expect from a ND game. We have certainly seen this combat system before, and it is as adequate as it ever was. Where it utterly fails is in the narrative and the character development. Trying to make Abby at all sympathetic is like putting lipstick on a pig, and making the player play as her for so much of the game following her brutal murder of Joel is insulting. Ultimately it is a preachy sermon on multiple hot button topics that I could have done without. I certainly don't need a game designer to lecture me about social tolerance and the futility of revenge in a game that requires one's characters to kill many scores of people. While I won't spoil it, the ending is without doubt one of the most insulting and intellectually dishonest things I have seen written into a video game. So the upshot is this. If you are the kind of gamer who only cares about graphics and gameplay characteristics, this is a good game for you. But if you expect a good story in a narrative driven game, then my advice would be to give this game a hard pass.… Expand

There is already a medium which has perfect movement and animations: it's the Movie.
    On the other hand, the gameplay is quite boring and the game itself is far too long; the new characters are plain and uninteresting, the older beloved characters are changed to make them stupid ("Hi, I'm Joel, what's up?"). The story as a whole is completely not necessary and not believable: it's full of dumb plot twists, of "subverted expectations" and plot holes; the dialogues are trivial, futile and way too slow, too much pause, too much staring and breathing: it's just plainly boring. And when finally something happens, it should not have happened.

    The gameplay in this game greatly improved. Its intense and rewarding. Characters are interesting and complex with a great story for them. I wasn't expecting this story but I'm happy with the risks it takes. More video game studios need to take note of what naughty dog does with their story and characters

    As a stand alone game, it would maybe be a 5.. but as a sequel this game hits all the wrong notes. It takes everything fans liked about the first game and threw them in the trash. Plot holes, characters are boring, lengthy, and boring. Probably 10+ hours of the "gameplay" is pointless and the ending is pathetic at best.

    Gameplay is sound and graphics are stunning. The sound is cringy as it tends to just be the protagonist or antagonist grunting non stop which becomes very annoying.
    Not to mention blatent false advertising clearly used as damage control because the studio knew they were making poor choices with the games direction..

    The game is a worse version of its predecessor with no significant improvements in any way. Very unfortunate.    … Expand

Seeing as how the company had employees leave it makes why this game turn into hot butt butter. Visually appealing, combat mechanics similar to first, but politics being shoved down your throat with **** writing is a NO tor me dog. Save your money for Cyberpunk or UNO. Just something other than this snakeoil.… Expand

    People are just haters who take everything for granted, ND did a great job, new gameplay option, compatibility, great story telling, great caracters, made some crazy decision on scenario...
    Just one of the best game, of 2010-2020, just below RDR2 for me.

    A game that fails its predecessor; though the graphics are competent, they are nothing spectacular, and in all other facets - gameplay, story, character, etc. - it falls flat.

    This game is deceptive at every turn. Without giving spoilers I feel absolutely lied to and manipulated by this game. This is NOT what I expected as a sequel to the last of us 2. Absolute debauchery of everything the game stood for.

    Naughty Dog proved their technologies from their money. But their story has completely fell into hell. They used useful cliché but it's not right way of it. They made it too easily and they don't thought enough. They wanted game that have lesson or empathy things, but they completely failed. The lastofus2 don't have these. Rather it have peripheral violence that make people get feel ****

I don't get why games need to push this garbage narrative of equality down peoples throats. It is very obvious what they are trying to do. I'm not saying that anything is wrong with being gay or trans the problem is when you keep shoving this garbage SJW **** that no one cares about there is a clear message you are trying to convey. All I want to do is play the game kill some zombies and have a good or somewhat story that will make people who played the first game happy. But instead got nothing remotely close to that. Naughty Dog wake the f*ck up you should be ashamed of this disappointment of a story.

    For me personally The Last of Us ended with Part One, they lived happily ever after.

    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]
