    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let me preface this by saying I have watched an entire playthrough of this game because I was afraid to buy it.
    I was right to be afraid, I was in love with tlou, they ruined the characters. Joel OPENLY states his name in a room full of strangers.
    There are so many plot holes in this game. I wont be buying it at all. Ridiculous.    … Expand

This game is getting a lot of hate and it doesnt deserve any of it. If you cannot empathize with people or attempt to understand their emotional trauma there is no point in you playing this impactful game. This game is literally about Ellie losing herself, and in the end, regaining some of her humanity. She is crippled by grief and past trauma, and you watch how much it affects her and her relationships. She does find her redemption and it is beautiful.

    I hope naughty dog is not affected by these bad, troll reviews. The game was amazing and emotional in ways i cannot explain. it was just magical.

    The only negative i have is because i got a little bored wondering around and looting some of the larger areas.    … Expand

    I can’t understand why such negative feedback from users. The game shows what was done with love for detail. With a story that makes you empathize with different angles and does not leave the player on the sidelines. Significantly increased locations and their sizes, improved combat, crafting and leveling.
    In any case, this game is worth playing!

    It's as close to perfect as a game can be currently. Gameplay is immaculate, graphically stunning, audio is on point and the story is magnificent. It builds on the first game and improves in every aspect. Don't believe the comments about pandering, or pushing agendas because it's just not true. One of the best games I've ever played

    Das Gameplay ist wie immer gut, aber was bringt mir ein gutes Gameplay wenn die Story von hinten bis vorne nicht stimmt. Das Grösste Verbrechen der Entwickler war es, den Joel und Tommy wie kleine unerfahrene Schuljungen in den Hinterhalt raten zu lassen, so misstrauisch und vorsichtig wie der Joel im ersten Teil war.

    We don't deserve such a disgusting storyline and such alternative heroines. Why don't developers give the player the choice of who to play for and which side of sexuality to choose. Like in the game "Detroit" (kille or not kill humans).

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm sorry, but the story of this game is brilliant. I simply cannot comprehend how people say it's bad. I think a lot of people can't get over Joel dying. There is a difference between something that you don't like happening in a story, and the story being bad.

    The Last of Us 2 brings another point of view to the table. A point of view in which Joel isn't actually such a good guy. He did things in first game that weren't that great, he killed a lot of people for selfish reasons. This game shows us BOTH points of views, Abby's and Ellie's. We see a lot of character development from both of these characters. Their stories intertwine and we realize that they are... almost the same. They both went looking for the same thing: revenge. Only to find out at the end that it's just not worth it. All that came from that revenge was pain, and death, and loneliness. I found it super interesting the way they told the story from Abby's perspective. I liked it. It shows us the world isn't always black or white.

    The game also shows us a lot of flashbacks. The moments shared between Ellie and Joel were simply wholesome and beautiful. The last flashback we see at the end shows us Ellie was angry at Joel after she found out he lied to her. She would have prefered to die to find a vaccine, she said that that way her life would have had a purpose. She ends up telling him that she doesn't think she can ever forgive him, but that she wants to try. That was the last time they saw each other. In my opinion this is what made her look for revenge. It wasn't because of Abby, it was because of herself. She didn't forgive him before he died, and that was eating at her inside.

    The end is bittersweet, but I really liked it. My interpretation of it is, when Ellie returns after sparing Abby's life, she finds out everything that she's lost due to her hunger for vengeance. But to me it really feels like she is... finally at peace? It feels like she finally forgave Joel. And at the same time, forgave herself.

    This game is simply a 10 for me. As I said, I really enjoyed the story. But the graphic aspect of it is simply outstanding as well. The music, brilliant. The characters, brilliant. The gameplay is very similar to TLOU1, but it's still fun and it works. They made some small changes that were needed as well. I don't know, maybe I'm just too positive, but I personally couldn't find any flaws in it.    … Expand

The writing in this game is one of the worst writings in history, the character development, the situations, the editing, everything is just BAD, really BAD. The gameplay's ok, graphics are just amazing, animations are hands down the best in the market, but no one plays this game for that. The plot is just cheap, the characters are just dumb, they didn't respect the first game at all. The Abby story is just there for the sake of being there, she doesn't have something to say, they forced a purpose with the Scars, all the Hospital part to save someone she just met just to see her die after in a crappy cinematic, it's just sad, sad to see how the developer doesn't even care of what they made you go through just to kill a character that didn't even have to be saved in the beginning, it's just BAD, BAD. I was so disconnected with the main plot that I didn't even think the sniper was Tommy when it was so obvious, and it's the only time you connect something, and it's for nothing and has no sense, Manny being there, Tommy being there, you being there. Everything in this game happens because it needs to happen to move the plot forward. It's lazy, bad, and disrespectful.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game was extremely disappointing. I was really hoping naughty dog wouldn’t go the cheap story route of having Ellie go on a revenge rampage for Joel’s murder. It was predictable and unsatisfying. I also didn’t like how the game tries to make the gamer feel bad for Abby, the girl who murders Joel. Even with her backstory I found her very unlikeable. I also didn’t like the political correctness naughty dog shoves down your throat. I’m not saying you should be offensive but they really want to get patted on the back for their political correctness. Lastly, I didn’t appreciate all the religious profanities and religious slander. I can’t tell you how many times the main characters say JESUS. I am a Christian and tolerate all the f-bombs and violence they throw at me, but there’s no need to isolate a specific religion. The only good things about the game is the amazing gameplay, level design, and visuals. Definitely not enough to save a terrible story especially when the first Last of Us story was phenomenal. Characters' decisions didn’t make sense either. Like how Abby not only spares Ellie and Tommy’s lives at the beginning of the game but also near the end. That just wouldn’t happen in an apocalypse. Let alone twice. Not worth your money. They should never have made a second game or they should have gone with a completely different story then the one that they gave us.… Expand

Perhaps this is not a masterpiece in terms of building a story, but not a single game has yet caused such a storm of emotions and empathy in my head.

    Gameplay has become even better since the time of the fantastic first part. It’s really interesting, sometimes funny and exciting to play.

    The only right option in the case of The Last Of Us Part II is to buy this game and comprehend it on your own, without the help of anyone else from the side, because it will arouse completely different emotions in every person's mind.

    Objectively evaluating the product, I would put 9/10. For someone it might be 8/10, and someone will refuse to accept this story because of their own views and put the game 0/10, but my emotions and impressions do not allow me to put this game score below 10/10.

The gameplay improves upon its predecessor in almost every way—environments are richer, enemies are smarter, combat and traversal are much more fluid.

    The most polarizing aspect of this game is obviously the story. In short, The Last Of Us Part II is not interested in fan service, period. Naughty Dog took a big risk with this story in that they decided to stay true to the bleak brutality of the post-apocalyptic world, creating nuanced, morally ambiguous characters. Not everyone gets a happy ending. Actually, no one really gets a happy ending. But what else can be expected in a world ravaged by disease and violence? Without a doubt, The Last of Us Part II offers one of the most thought-provoking stories ever told in a video game.

    The truth is, just because people are upset over a major character dying, doesn't make this an objectively bad story. It's actually the opposite—the fact that people are so angry means the game did its job. We're supposed to feel angry, and depressed, and disgusted, and hopeless, and disappointed. The biggest strength of this game is its ability to make players FEEL. That alone makes it one of the most impressive pieces of storytelling —in ANY medium— in years.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have finished the game, but I feel such a crushing sadness after finishing it. I think I understand the intent of the developers, but don't think it made for an enjoyable experience. The first game, though desolate, was a beautiful mix of sadness/joy/excitement and ended with me feeling hope. In general, I felt good while playing Part I, and I ended the game feeling good as well.

    With Part II, I felt miserable playing as Abbby. I think the intent was for us to bond with her and sympathize with her, but despite the attempts, I just couldn't. I understand what Joel did in the first game, and don't think Abby was entitled to her revenge at all. I get her tribulations, but her Dad was kinda crazed and I don't feel warm towards Abby and her character arc.

    The violence was also way too much! Perhaps that was the intent? But had I known that, I wouldn't have played it. I feel as though this game was the equivalent to a situation where Voldemort wins at the end of Harry Potter, and then Hogwarts is burned and the Death Eaters win. I would not have wanted to read a story where that version of events played out! Similarly, I was so horrified I had to play as Abby, and beating up Ellie made me want to turn the games off and watch the ending summarized on youtube because I would have needed closure and to know how it ends. Good for the developers for doing what they felt was the right creative intent. This game made me feel bad, and I feel worse off for having played it.

    Some good though, because I think it's important these reviews are balanced. Graphics were amazing, and I DID like the gameplay. Just the story and characters I hated...This is why the ultimate score is 4. I think 0 scores are stupid and too emotional. But I would not recommend this game, and I would not have purchased it had I known how things were gonna play out.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So please let me say this to start. This review will contain MAJOR SPOILERS for this game. If you don't want to know what happens or haven't played it, then please don't read this or any reviews that say this too. Now onto my review of this game. I'm giving this game a zero and I would like to give you my opinion as to why I'm scoring it this low. First, I would like to start off by commenting on that controversial trailer that a lot of people, myself included, are mad about. First Naughty Dog puts out a trailer that deliberately has Joel, a much loved and beloved character in this franchise, in a scene where he seems to rescue Ellie and states to her, "What, do you think I'd let you do this alone." At that moment so many of us were relieved to see that he was alive and well and it gave us the hope and assumption that he would be in the game and that we would be able to play as him or at least go on an adventure with him and Ellie again. Sadly, this was not the case by far and the trailer IMO was an absolute lie to deceive players in thinking he was in the game and had a much better and different role than what he did. Joel gets killed a little after two hours, that's right, a whole two hours into the game, and dies a vey ugly and violent death. You never get to play as him, use him in any way and they (Neil Druckmann and Naughty Dog) completely abandon this great character and just spit on him, both in the game and with their writing, to push him aside to promote other SJW and political agendas.

    You play as Ellie for most of the game and yes, the graphics are the best I've ever seen, the voice acting is excellent and I actually had some fun playing as her. The problem I have is that the game seems to drag on a little too much for my taste, seems redundant in gameplay by doing the same tasks over and over again and just isn't was fun as the first game. The Ellie we knew is dead and buried and we get a very angry, somber and not so funny Ellie as we loved from the first game. I actually don't mind this as I understand that time and bad situations can and will change people. Ellie is a badass and kills a lot of people in her quest to find Joel's killer and avenge him.

    You do get to meet new characters along the way and IMO they are nowhere near as charismatic and interesting as any character in the first game. Bill, was hysterical as the wise cracking, badass acquaintance of Joel and in this game, we get boring, uninteresting characters who you don't connect with as emotionally as any character from the first one.

    The worst of which is Abby. She is the one who kills Joel and everything from how she was designed, her personality and how they just jammed this character down our throats was just way off. You don't once, not once get to play as Joel, Tommy or even a dog, but are force around the 15th hour into this game to play as her for a very long time. The director, Neil Druckmann, in doing this tries to get you to understand her point of view in killing Joel and tries so desperately to make us sympathize with her, but fails miserably. Once Joel dies, we didn't even want to continue playing as the shock, anger and overall confusion just killed our interest in this game. I played on because I wanted to give the game a fair chance but just couldn't do it anymore as they forced us to play as Abby. So many people are upset about this and I understand why. The game is all about revenge and in the end, Ellie doesn't even kill Abby, but lets her go, just walk away free and clear and it makes the whole game pointless.

    You spend hours and hours playing this game, killing hundreds of people to avenge Joel and in the end, they say who cares and just abandon the story altogether. The writing, character development, and plot and so much of this game was wasted by bad writers and a director who clearly lost his way. Neil Druckmann with his own words said that the heart of the Last of Us was all about Joel and Ellie. He said the relationship was the center and they would never do anything to break that bond and he lied. He flat out lied and gave us an horrendous and watered down story to push his own political beliefs and agenda. No men allowed and female empowerment all of the way. You never once play as a man in this game, but play as Ellie, who is awesome and then Abby, who no one cares about. He panders to SJW culture and caters to them but not all of the players and everyone who loves the last of us. This game gets a zero because of that. They abandoned Joel's character and every great thing they did with him and just cast him aside like he never mattered; all to put the spotlight on Ellie and other characters who never come close to Joel. This isn't me hating on women or anything like that, but me hating on people pushing their agendas down peoples throats and giving us no choice but to like it. They lied in their advertising and failed in this game. Don't buy it or play it if you loved the first game.    … Expand

    Este juego me encanto, las emociones que te dejan, querer matar a un personaje y después amarlo, odiar al protagonista. Es algo que ningún otro juego se atrevería hacer, esta es un juego bastante realista y la mejor versión de como un apocalipsis zombie se desarrollaría a largo plazo. Sin duda uno de los mejores juegos de este año.

    If you loved the original characters you will be seriously disappointed with this sequel. Creative director Neil Druckmann has trolled loyal fans by delivering the complete opposite of what they wanted. Joel and Ellie might as well not be in this game. If you really cared about those characters (like I did) then give this a hard pass. The level of narcissism shown by Druckmann is unfathomable. I cannot imagine how he was allowed to derail what could have become a billion dollar franchise. This game will be bought by many loyal fans and like me they will feel betrayed by the false advertising and the blatant lies that tricked them into parting with their money. Sure the game has pretty graphics and smooth game play but beyond that it is soulless. It desperately attempts to be clever by forcing you to commit acts of atrocity and then preaches to you about how awful this is... it’s moronic, patronising and simply fails on every level. The female writer that delivered the brilliant original had no hand in this utter garbage and it shows. I will never buy anything remotely connected to Neil Druckmann ever again. I sincerely hope that his career is over. Don’t waste your time or money, Ghost of Tsushima is coming out soon and then CyberPunk is following later on this year. My advice is to save your money for what are much more likely to be quality entertaining titles. Or if you really need an apocalypse fix and haven’t yet played Days Gone, it’s definitely worth a look, it’s the entertaining sequel that this game should of been    … Expand

    The sequel? It feels like it was written by someone who had an agenda as their primary motivation rather than creating a good story.. (Reminds me of East German Theatre prior to the collapse of the wall). It feels forced, illogical and the main moral "point" completely misses the mark based on player's experience with the original.

I myself was fortunate not to see any spoilers beforehand, but it was geared up to be one of the worst sequels of the decade according to others. I’ll say this: TLOU2 is absolutely astonishing visually and gameplay wise. I felt immersed in the world they created with no mission marker, compass, etc. The graphics and land are crafted beautifully and the new ways Ellie and characters can navigate the world are creative and ever changing.

    But let’s get to the meat and potatoes, the story: This game will only be impactful if you go into it with an open mind, in my opinion. It seems to many other players went into it having an agenda for what they wanted to happen, coupled with the fact they played as another character they had no intent of understanding, or cared enough to understand, which made for some bad reviews. Personally, this is far from the truth. The story is about redemption, revenge, love, and forgiveness, and as the final credits roll it leaves the player emotionally drained from the past 30 hours of unbelievable twists and turns. Ellie’s quest for revenge and tearing down everything in her path prove to be haunting to those she kills...and to her. In some areas, this game rivals its predecessor.

    However, this game is not without flaws, and I can see why some do not favor this over the first one. The game slows in some areas, particularly as you start the second half of the game, and I can see why so many put down their controllers and gave a negative review, but I implore you to keep playing. I ask that you keep an open mind to the second half, and I promise that the end result will live up the same as the first game.

    Finally, and I feel the need to add this because it because many have complained about this: TLOU2 is not a happy game. Every once in a while their are heart touching moments of hope and joy for the characters, but it ends up either being short lived or destroyed in front of them. The first one, while obviously not joy of a story or setting, had love and hope coated throughout the plot between Joel and Ellie, which made us feel more connected with them. Not this is not to say you can’t relate to any of the characters in this game (I felt more connected with the characters in TLOU2 than the first), but there are very few moments of joy after the first three hours of gameplay. have been gaming for over 20 years, and I have never felt as emotionally drained, conflicted, or flat out sad for characters in any game besides this one (including the TLOU1). If you are looking for a happier ride, keep looking, but if you want a a game with compelling parallels between two sets of characters that continues to captivate and impress until the credits role, this game is right up your alley. I see why some did not like it and I respect their opinion, but in my eyes, in most areas, this TLOU2 rivals the first, and did not disappoint in its 7 year wait.    … Expand

    mi reseña de TLOU2 es muy simple es un juegaso buenas gráficos, historia medianamente pero lo enriquece el juego. no soy de esos tipos que dicen que el juego es una "basura" si ni siquiera haberlo probarlo.

    The story is actually quite amazing. It is a deep look into the meaningless and seeking in a post-apocalypse world. Almost every character's motivation and action revolve around this theme.

    People doesn’t see how great is this game, if you played the game you will see you start to doubt what is right and what is wrong, so it is a good game it’s not like the first one but it doesn’t mean it’s a bad game I really enjoyed playing it I recommend it.

TLOU: Part 2 brilliantly closes the story of two lonely individuals, told in at least, two parts.… 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]
