    Игра не без грешка.
    С недостатками в сюжете и внешнем виде некоторых персонажей.
    Геймплей решает,но и сюжет в целом неплох.
    Не 10 из 10, но свои 8 баллов я пожалуй оставлю.    … Expand

    Incredible storytelling that forces you to examine yourself and your preconceived ideas on virtues, morals, justice and revenge.

    I have played the first part and it was such an amazing experience but the second part has not done justice for it's name sake.

    I invested one week of my life in this game and I'm disappointed and feel that it was a terrible experience

    Very good game point of view of story. The story is even more complex as in Part I. I have some ideas what to do different in storyline, but overall it is very good game.

    An absolute waste if my time, this game doesn't even come close to the first one. I wanted to play this game for ellie and joul not a golf game with ma'am and incredibly uninteresting characters with horrible pacing that left me confused to what I was even doing for the 2nd half of the game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Never in my life have I ever liked/felt sympathy for a newly introduced character who savagely kills my favourite character. Never in any book, any movie, any tv show and any game. I don't know why these developers felt that that would be a good idea. And then they expect me to play this murderer for the next half of the game... uhhh nope. I'll try to get her killed instead because I don't care about her.

    And that long prolonged sex scene. It's obvious they only added it and purposely made it as gross and disgusting as possible to troll people... their audience... their paying customers... wtf. Do they want money or not?

    Trash game. I won't be preordering the next one which is where most of their sales came from.    … Expand

A fair warning that this game is very bleak and depressing so if you are prone to that maybe skip this one for awhile. It is a complete $60 game with polished gameplay, a good written story, and definitely memorable characters, buy it and try it for yourself.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game does not deserve a 0/10 rating but it's definitely not a 10/10 Masterpiece either. The gameplay is quite cinematic and fluid , but doesn't do enough to distinguish itself from the revered first entry it's absolutely a 7/10 for me , the story is where this game falls apart characters from the first game make some questionable decisions not resembling their previous choices and the new characters the game introduces aren't memorable or well developed enough to have an impact , also the plot is needlessly bleak and let me tell you this is not an easy game to play , its downright harrowing at times and that goes for the ending too which is bleak for it's own sake nor there's any feeling of contentment and not to serve the story in any meaningful way , it has to be a 5/10 for me and for a series that was revered for its amazing story that's a disappointment,.The first game is my favorite game of all time and I'm sad to see this is where they took they took the story… Expand

    Beyond Good and Evil. Another masterpiece by Naughty Dog, huge amount of details, excelent gameplay and above all a story that will make you love or hate for the characters, everyone has their reasons. It's a game about vengence and dealing with the consequences. Last of us Part 2 makes you believe you can either be the hero or the villain.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have mixed feelings about this game, the graphics are stunning and the gameplay is great however the story could've been written a lot better than what was put out, literally a slap in the face to the beloved characters of the first game and the fans. However this story had some amazing moments when it came to the Ellie's flashbacks with Joel, and listening to Ellie play the guitar. The game felt very realistic while in combat which was amazing... but the time i spent playing as Abby felt so dragged out i kept taking constant breaks, it seems like the game tries to make us all like Abby but for most of us that was never the case. Also part of this game just felt like nothing but a message, please keep politics out of video games and let people enjoy themselves.… Expand

    Great game, very thought provoking. Before you hate on this game, I implore you to play through it yourself and think through why you don’t like it. If you’re angry at the game, you’re proving the game’s lessons correct. Keep your heart and mind open while playing and you’ll have a eye opening story.

    El juego está excelente en cuanto a mecánicas, detalles, jugabilidad, paisajes y "realismo". La historia no está mal del todo, de hecho es muy buena, lo único que hace que reciba malas críticas es que tiene un argumento diferente al que se esperaba ya desde hace años de su anunciamiento.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After thinking about why I utterly disliked this game, I could only reach one conclusion.
    In the first game as Joel, I could put myself in his place and picture myself doing the same, anything to save Ellie in the end.
    But in this game... A LOT of the things the characters do make NO sense to me.

    Maybe this is one of those games that would benefit from multiple choices in the ending, I dunno.
    I could NEVER let Abby go, and I never really enjoyed playing as her, it felt completely forced "revenge is bad", witness the other side, etc, shenanigans.

    This game is a sequel, I wanted to see things from Ellie, Joel, Dina and their friends and settlement.
    Even Joel's death didn't bother that much, life in the apocalypse is tough and sometimes the worst enemies are people, I get it.

    As Ellie, I'd probably never leave Dina alone with the baby, but I understand Ellie was suffering from severe PTSD, so... ok I suppose.

    But then, by the end when we find Abby, I wouldn't even cut her loose, I'd just stab her in the gut while she was in the 'pillar' and walk away...
    Or if Ellie insisted in a duel, I could do that and the game could end with either one dead.
    Or just shoot her after she took us to the boats and sail away probably shooting Lev as well... I wouldn't wan't any Abby's friend around.

    TL;DR: There is no way in my mind I can see Ellie (or myself as Ellie) not killing Abby or die trying.    … Expand

    Well, where to begin. The Last of Us Part II is quite the complicated game. First things first, the graphics look out of this world. The fact that it’s running on a PS4/PS4 Pro and it looks like a next gen game, is just amazing.

The Last of Us Part II is quite the complicated game. First things first, the graphics look out of this world. The fact that it’s running on a PS4/PS4 Pro and it looks like a next gen game, is just amazing. Now, subjectively, this games story isn’t badly written, it’s just very badly paced and and feels like it isn’t in the correct order. Reasons being that in most story’s you have a rising climax. In this game there is a rising climax, and at the midpoint where the rising climax gets even bigger, in this game the rising climax drops down completely at the midpoint, and is like this for a good few hours, until it immediately rises back up again. It goes up and down a few time’s before the ending, making this game, from a subjective standpoint, bad. But, for some reason, for me that didn’t effect me. I was still engaged with this game, I still wanted to play it, I wanted to complete my goal as Ellie. I was utterly and completely hooked on this game. And, to this games credit, once I finished this game and the credits rolled.. I sat there, motionless. I didn’t feel sad, nor did I feel anger, happiness or anything of the sorts. I felt empty. I felt completely empty. And no other game I have played made me feel this. And, also this game is by far the most emotional i’ve been playing a game. I cried and sobbed A LOT, and if you loved the first game like me, chances are you’ll feel emotional all through out the story also. Another big issue this game faced was its pacing. It’s all over the place. Like I mentioned. At around the mid way point, instead of the action getting more and more, it dropped, and you became less gripped by the story. The first 10 or so hours of the game will have you gripped, and you won’t want to stop playing, but after that you dont feel as engaged as previously. I feel if the game was structured in a different way, it would have been much more fun to play, and have you gripped through out the whole story.

    Moving away from story. The gameplay in this is absolutely phenomenal. Every encounter you play whether it be against humans or the infected, you always have this feeling of dread or fear while you hide (or go guns blazing, depending on your play style) around the tall grass or under the cars as you try to get a sneak attack on someone, or something. The gameplay is like the first game, but better. This game flows much better, the gun play feels better, stealth has been built up on, and like the previous game, it gives you the feeling that you are in an apocalypse with little ammo.

    Of course, there is a moment that has divided the fan base. I won’t tell you what to believe, but all I will say is power through to the end, it way change your thoughts, or solidify your thoughts. If you’re a fan of this game, you’re either going to love it, or despise it. I happen to be the former, it’s a wonderful piece of art and one of my favourite games, as well as its predecessor. If this game wins GOTY 2020, I’d say that it’s well deserved. Well done naughty dog, you did it again.    … 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]
