    This is the game that speaks Narrative blah, completely destroys what the beloved first game has established to cater Neil’s political views with self inserts ingame that just speaks narcissism

    What a waste. Easily the best looking game on any platform, but let down perhaps the worst storytelling of the century. Distasteful and spits of the legacy of the first game.

    Se suponía que este juego debía ser increíble y lo han destrozado con una narrativa con propaganda políticamente correcta nwo, han maltratado a los personajes más queridos y han hecho lo que han querido, todo para mal

    Gameplay and Graphics are very good. It really uses the Hardware to ist entirety.

    If the developers had just put minimal effort into Story-telling that game could have been a masterpiece. However the Story is so bad it made me cringe.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This isn't a sequel more than it's a tragedy in video game history.

    Pros:
    New 'protagonist' is a virtual evil twin of Ricardo Milos
    Saved many people from wasting money in a difficult time (please take care of your health and loved ones)
    Better looking character models
    Teaches a lesson to other game developers on how to protect their intellectual property and finances
    Cons:
    Ruined Joel and Tommy's entire persona of being veteran survivalists in a post-apocalyptic world.
    Disengaged TLOU1 fans by focusing on real world pseudo social issues instead of staying true to game lore and atmosphere. Zombies, remember?
    Destroyed Ellie's entire character arc and left her redundant in future storytelling    … Expand

    I have been waiting for years to play this game. Finally, I got it. It's an amazing game with interesting characters and plot. You must own this game. It's a game of the generation. Thanks, Neil and Naughty Dog for your talent and work. Thanks!

    it is barley a game its a really boring soap opera that is a far cry from the story build up from the original. when you have to push yourself just to get through the next part it is not a game anymore. graphics are top notch but the game is full of bugs, horrible written AI scripts bugging around or doing nothing.

    should have just made it a CGI movie people could buy, and sony and    it is barley a game its a really boring soap opera that is a far cry from the story build up from the original. when you have to push yourself just to get through the next part it is not a game anymore. graphics are top notch but the game is full of bugs, horrible written AI scripts bugging around or doing nothing.

    This game looks and sounds amazing but boring/redundant gameplay and poor Character building/storytelling really hold it back from being what it should be.

Overall I didn’t really enjoy my time in this game and wouldn’t recommend until they at least fix up the animation glitches but if your a fan of the original or even good storytelling this isn’t the game for you… Expand

    Good gaming system but, worst writing ever. They tortured and destroyed the legacy of TLOU, and couldn't even make good use out of it. This game is an insult and a spit to TLOU. Don't buy this if you love TLOU.

    Playing from start to finish with our emotions, this suite constantly oscillates between waking dreams, where the tenderness of an exchange frozen forever in the distant past will be enough to move us, and brutality of the present time inseparable from a ripe way of the cross by an implacable feeling of revenge. Making the unpredictable a norm, overflowing with creativity through momentsPlaying from start to finish with our emotions, this suite constantly oscillates between waking dreams, where the tenderness of an exchange frozen forever in the distant past will be enough to move us, and brutality of the present time inseparable from a ripe way of the cross by an implacable feeling of revenge. Making the unpredictable a norm, overflowing with creativity through moments imbued with delicacy, this suite surprises and makes us think about the consequences of our actions while mistreating us emotionally. Having refined its gameplay, now much more immersive, this part II stands out as a fabulous action / infiltration title but also and above all as a story, sometimes getting lost in some narrative stretches and other superfluous scenes but never deviating from its guideline dedicated to offering its characters a conclusion, whether happy or not. Like all creations bearing the mark of their authors, The Last of Us Part II will provoke debates, reactions, which, like its protagonists, remains terribly human. Whether we like it or not, there remains a major work here that will haunt us several days after we finish it and which we now say as the new example to follow in its field or more simply as a breathtaking, heartbreaking and magnificent story to that time.… Expand

    Neil Druckmann literally ruined The last of us. Horrible writing, literally killed the game.
    I don't recommend buying this game, the only "good thing" are the graphics, nothing else.

    I could type a long, fleshed out argument for why this game is bad, but that would be too much of a waste of time--much like my time spent on the game.

    The Last of Us II can be summed as 7 years of disappointment. The game leaves you hollow from the beginning to the end with its pathetic excuse of a plot.

    But decent console graphics and game mechanics.

    I loved the first game but this is just such a trainwreck. The story what Last of Us is known for is ruined leaving only medicore and linear stealth action for you with nothing much improved over the original game.

    7 years of evolution from first part to drop all the pros. Characters, characters interactions, side characters, etc. The only good new mechianc is dogs and they're completely dissapers in second part of the game. Unbelievable fail.

    Seriously Naughty Dog ?
    Holy sh*** the story was so god awful. The graphics and gameplay are very clean and beautiful but the story man...
    This game is pure exemple of what not to do for a sequel and destroying all character development from the previous game.

    From a technical Standpoint it is looking good, the animations are fluid and I would expect nothing else from NDog.
    BUT that's about it, the "Gameplay" is what we've seen from NDog for xth time. The same repetitive mechanics, sprinkled on top with antique buttonmashing QTEs.
    The Story is utter garbage, I love movies and games and I have seen the exact same story handled a thousand times    From a technical Standpoint it is looking good, the animations are fluid and I would expect nothing else from NDog.

    The Characters act completely different than in the first part, and the new ones are just sooo unlikable and behave like they are from planet ****
    The general Theme of the game is Hate, and that's what I should feel for this game, but all I feel is pity. Pity for the employees and the people suffering through this game that were lured in by false reviews.    … 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]
