    Tragedy is to destroy all the pretty things for people to see.
    A touching story about loss.
    When I saw Joel defends Ellie , I felt completely shattered and my heart was broken. Because it became a memory.

    Il gioco perfetto, probabilmente non esisterà mai un altro gioco di questo livello, un capolavoro che deve essere giocato. Meno di 10 non merita.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us Part II Review - Martin A.

    The Last of US is a cautionary tale of what would you give up to save 1 person.
    In this case, the world is infected. The only person you love has to die to produce
    a vaccine to cure the world. While the 1st game is a tale of love, the sequel is the
    payment that is required.

    Joel has sacrificed the world to spend more time with his makeshift daughter Ellie.
    The lie that saved Ellie is the same lie that cost Joel his life. Abby is the
    daughter of the doctor who was killed by Joel. Now Abby is fatherless and a payment
    is needed.

    Right from the start of the game. The story constantly asks the question; Is it all
    worth it? From the 1st part of the game, it constantly poses "What if it doesn't
    work?" What if the sacrifice goes in vain? I believe that if Joel had time to say
    goodbye to Ellie. Ellie would have refused the operation. Which is why Marlene
    rushed the procedure.

    Joel didn't get the chance to confess his love. That was the one thing he couldn't
    say but found a way to express it through travel and bond. That is why the game at
    the end does not give you a choice to not kill the doctor and at the time, my self,
    have even said "I would have killed him too for Ellie."

    I have always said "What's the point of a cure if the world is broken? What good
    would that do? I would rather save Ellie." I've reasoned with my self to save her.
    Now, I'm seeing my own reflection right back. My own agreed decision with others
    and how ugly it is. The infection only got worse...

    It is very clear that Ellie did not feel the same way about Joel when revealed what
    Joel had done. It was only later on after "squandered" years of Ellie not talking to
    Joel that it was too late. She loved him as a father figure. She needed time to realize
    she had been saved out of love instead of the her fantasy of being the savior of the world.

    Ellie was not given the chance to forgive Joel which sets her off on her journey for
    blood but every step of the way she is 1 or 2 minutes behind. I was also expecting
    Abby to be somewhat of a monster. Instead, she was surviving like Joel. She was looking
    after kids. As Joel, she also developed a mother figure with Lev, a young boy similar in
    age from Ellie the 1st time around.

    Abby and Ellie are two sides of the same coin. Abby is a Joel. Strong, older and looking
    for love. I have no doubt that Ellie and Abby in another world that we call normal, would
    have been friends. The proof at the end when Abby is done fighting and simply just wants
    to save Lev at the cross. To be honest, I was expecting a boss fight. Instead I got a
    pity fight. No, not Abby, Ellie. Even at Abby's weakest, she still gave Ellie a fight and
    almost won.

    Ellie realizing that her win would only be in vain. Me in tears, seeing what shed had become.
    I only wanted to save her, was this better? Was this worth it? At what cost? Ellie returns
    home only to find out that she has lost everything if not, everyone. Ellie has become the
    worst of Joel. Is she even Ellie anymore to me?
    Looking back, I never questioned if killing the doctor was ever wrong. I don't think ever regretted it either. Now, I understand why Abby and her gang hated him. He killed him and screwed the world. I think back to what Marlene said right before the surgery "And what if this was Abby? -If this was your daughter, what would you do?". The person I was rooting for was a monster all along... The story forces us to walk with ghosts. We see only their love and perception. This game has managed to enraged most people who have played it and I hope they all come around to what I've realized. The unfortunate consequences of every decision. I understand why it's called Part II and not The Last of Us 2. This is not a continuation of the miss adventures of Ellie and Joel. It's another world. In this world, Ellie exists and she is not untouchable. If only we all could have let her be special; she would have lived longer in name. A fallen savior, left alone with no purpose; was our choice at the end. This game, like it's prequal before, is a master piece. It doesn't hold your hand and expect you to expect what everyone wanted. Instead, it asks us. What have we've all done? The Last of Us Part II Gets my 2nd ever 10 out of 10. A brilliant story, game play, design, and amazing cast of characters. This game is a must play for those who even are remotely interested. When asked if a sequel would be made on The Last of Us. Neil Druckmann - "Only if the fans really want it." Thank you for reading my review. I hope you all have a safe journey.    … Expand

    The Last of Us Part II has been the most anticipated game of the generation by PlayStation 4 users. And one thing is for sure, it is a title that has not left, nor will it leave anyone indifferent. As I mentioned at the beginning, it is not an easy game to review.

    That makes me very self-conscious when doing an analysis without spoiling. For this reason, I recommend reading, after the game is over, my review with spoilers to understand my point of view about this game.

    As in the first installment, despite being excellent in the audiovisual section, none of its elements represent a revolution or the discovery of gunpowder. Only the story, specifically the way it is told and developed, deserves a separate mention.

    Similarly, what makes it special is the harmonious conjunction of a series of symphonic elements executed with exquisite perfection.

    The Last of us Part II is a cruel and uncomfortable journey full of mixed feelings. It was not the sequel that maybe we expected. But it is the sequel we needed.

    It is an essential title for lovers of the genre and for those seeking courage and something different in the way of posing and developing a narrative. It is a cruel, crude, wild game and, above all, complex in existential terms.

    It is simply a MASTERPIECE.

    (ESP)

    The Last of Us Parte II ha sido el juego más esperado de la generación por los usuarios de PlayStation 4. Y una cosa es segura, se trata de un título que no ha dejado, ni dejará, indiferente a nadie. Como he mencionado al principio, no es un juego fácil de analizar.

    Eso me cohibe mucho a la hora de realizar un análisis sin hacer spoilers. Por ese motivo, recomiendo leer, una vez acabado el juego, mi análisis con spoilers para entender mi punto de vista sobre este juego.

    Como en la primera entrega, pese a ser excelente en el apartado audiovisual, ninguno de sus elementos supone una revolución ni el descubrimiento de la pólvora. Sólo la historia, en concreto la manera en que se cuenta y desarrolla, merece mención aparte.

    Del mismo modo, lo que lo hace especial es la conjunción en harmonía de una serie de elementos sinfónicos ejecutados con una perfección exquisita.

    The Last of us Parte II es un cruel e incómodo viaje lleno de sentimientos encontrados. No ha sido la secuela que, quizás, esperábamos. Pero es la secuela que necesitábamos.

    Es un título imprescindible para los amantes del género y para los que busquen valentía y algo diferente en la manera de plantear y desarrollar una narrativa. Es un juego cruel, crudo, salvaje y, sobretodo, complejo en términos existenciales.

    Es simplemente, una OBRA MAESTRA.    … Expand

    Parts of this game are a 10/10 and fantastic. Parts of this game are a 0/10 and an unbearable chore. They made horrific decisions and they ruin the experience of the game. Fortunately, the ability to use the accessibility options to make the unbearable 10 hours a bit easier salvaged parts of the experience.

    A lotta people have a problem with Abby, saying she's a sh*t character, so I'll address just that.
    What makes her a good character is the fact that she tries to seek closure for the death of her father through having compassion for the scars, who were once her enemies, Abby continued to have nightmares until the point where she decided to go back for the scars(Lev and Yara).
    It was at this    A lotta people have a problem with Abby, saying she's a sh*t character, so I'll address just that.
    What makes her a good character is the fact that she tries to seek closure for the death of her father through having compassion for the scars, who were once her enemies, Abby continued to have nightmares until the point where she decided to go back for the scars(Lev and Yara).
    It was at this point where she stopped having nightmares, and had one dream where she saw her father being happy.
    This correlates to the closure Ellie had in relation to Joel's death by showing mercy to Abby, seeing a happy, healthy Joel sitting down. Abby being good to the scars and helping them, especially at the end when she was carrying Lev to the boat correlates to the previous game where Joel was carrying Ellie out of the hospital, where they were about to kill her for the cure. Ellie giving Lev and Abby a chance to live was just a way of naughty dog showing us that the legacy of Joel and Ellie in some way is mirrored through Abby and Lev. So imo think Abby was a very important character and helped us to see the bigger picture.
    Most people just can't get over the fact that Joel died. Hence slander the story without giving it a very very very in depth look. Tlou1 is a story with happiness on the surface with grief, sadness and a lot of questions underneath While,
    Tlou 2 is a story with misery on the surface but peace, redemption and freedom underneath. Please look at the story with a different lens, not just with the "why did they kill Joel" lens
    People just wanted revenge, but TLOU2 is more than that. It teaches the player that peace can be found, and forgiveness is tho only way through which one can find peace.
    Ellie was going through PTSD, so was Abby.
    It was only through forgiveness that both of them were able to at least find the door that leads to their peace.
    There's no objectively good or bad guy in the game, but everyone in the game, at some point does good or bad things and the story writing in this game exhibited that perfectly!
    Looking at things critically, Joel wasn't a 'good' person.
    He was a selfish man, who killed an innocent doctor who could have found the cure to a disease.
    Joel's actions basically rippled through and led to everything happening in TLOU 2 Joel tried to seek closure for her daughter's death through Ellie, and through that, ended up making selfish decisions which in Ellie's own words, prevented her life from meaning something.

    TLOU 2 took a very ambitious and bold step that you rarely or never find in gaming. Naughty didn't want a cliche where Joel died in the arms of Ellie while saying his last, well coordinated words.
    Naughty dog made the game unpredictable.

    And this is why you should actually play TLOU2.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us: Part II is a good game and while I don't think it's as bad as people say, I don't think it's as good as critics made it out to be either. It is a much weaker game than the original. While there are 10/10 aspects of this game for sure, there were a few aspects that didn't really work for me.

    The great:
    Graphics - 10/10 (Pretty self-explanatory)
    Gameplay - 10/10 (While gameplay might seem outdated to some, I thoroughly enjoyed it)
    Level Design - 10/10 (Levels so large with multiple paths to evade/escape enemies
    Acting - 10/10 (Ashley, Laura, Troy and others fantastic, as expected.
    Nostalgic Flashback Sequences between Ellie and Joel - 10/10

    The good:
    I do like the story to this game and I like what the writers were going for however, I think with a stronger writer this game could have been amazing. I did like a lot of characters (Ellie, Joel, Lev, Yara, Dina, Jessie, Tommy, Owen and even Abby.

    The not-so good:
    I don't have a problem with Joel dying the way he did, he was never a good guy and it makes sense that former fireflies would be seeking revenge for what he did at the end of the first game. However, I do have a problem when his death is not set-up properly. Joel and Tommy walking into a room full of armed strangers seemed out of place and contrived if I'm honest. There was just barely any suspense leading up to his death.
    I think Seattle Day 1 for both Ellie and Abby could've been shortened down at least half, as this really affects the pacing (However, Seattle Day 2 definitely improved this, in my opinion).
    i also don't understand why Joel is seen by everyone as the only villain in this game either. I wish the game demonstrated how both Joel and the Fireflies were both villains, as neither of them asked Ellie's permission as to what she would like to have done.
    Mel was an awful character and I had no problem seeing her get stabbed in the neck by Ellie. I thought she was so stupid to go out on a combat mission whilst pregnant.
    I liked Dina, Jessie, Lev etc. but I wish they were fleshed out more so I could care about them even more. That being said, all performances in this game were fantastic.
    The Santa Barbara section was also too long, especially when I thought the game was coming to an end. Speaking of that section, I had no problem with Ellie sparing Abby at the end, it just didn't make sense considering the 1000s of NPCs she killed before then, whilst showing no remorse for any of them.

    Overall:
    As a huge fan of the original, I did enjoy this, and it is a very fun game to play. However, I feel that the writers, Neil Druckmann and Halley Gross, had good ideas but they needed a stronger writer overall. I would recommend this if you can get it at a sale price. Considering how divisive the game is, I can't be sure if you will enjoy it or not.

    I was never a huge fan of Tlou, but I WAS a big fan of Joel and Ellie. This game does NOTHING to fill that void. The gameplay is a improvement overall and the visuals are stunning, so I can see myself recommending this game at the very least. But if you're looking for a coherent story, there is NOTHING for you here.

    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.
