    Gameplay was pretty good, not great by today’s standards, but good enough. The stealth was fantastic though it’s too easy unless on hard difficulty. Story was a roller coaster of emotional reactions...REAL emotions. When Ellie finds the guitar in the farm house and sings one of my favorite songs (I still get chills whenever I hear that song)...

    The ending (no spoilers) left a bad taste in my mouth, but I think that was the point. Final battles felt like I was being tortured with a golf club.... I was somewhat disappointed by the ending when it was over but in retrospect it was the only way it could have ended and still have been an effective story. This was one of the best and worst gaming experiences of my life.... I don’t think I will ever replay it but I don’t think I want to. This was a work of art, truly brilliant. If you left a negative review and didn’t finish or even play the game it’s very obvious to those of us who gave the game a fair shot and played it through.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As I was about to write this review and check the spoiler box it occurred to me that it would have been really nice had Naughty Dog had warned us all that this game would not only ruin the series and guarantee little to no interest in further installments, it would spoil the entire beloved first game and best-loved character. This was very similar to what Star Wars had done Luke Skywalker.

    To start, it's fair to praise both the graphical beauty of this game and the ambitious vision for storytelling. Here, Naughty Dog tries to weave a complex tale about the pitfalls of vengeance with multiple perspectives and moral ambiguity.

    Unfortunately, this could have probably been accomplished without the myriad of questionable story-telling directions Naughty Dog ended up taking. Just to sum this up briefly, The most loved character was brutally murdered early in the game in an all too convenient chance meeting with a group who was hunting him down where he uncharacteristically let his guard down to a group of armed strangers. This is the oddity that is The Last of Us 2, a game that has grand storytelling ambitions but then falls into cheap McGuffins and plot holes at key moments. The game not only brutally kills of Joel, it rewrites his history, turning ultimately ruining the character of the first game as well which makes the entire affair that much more senseless. It doesn't help that the game then forces you to play as his wholly unlikable killer for half of the entire pointless experience. Manipulative tactics are employed to try and garner sympathy for Abby, but in the end, you still really want her to get what she has coming....and in that regard, this is never accomplished either. Of course, it's understood that Ellie "breaks the cycle of violence" by choosing to show mercy, but what then for the thousands of people she killed along the way to get to Abby? It seems like after all that sparing a single life, especially THAT life just does not carry the weight or message that is hoped and it leaves everything feeling pointless and nihilistic in the end.

    Reflecting back on the ending of that first amazing game, I always thought that it was a fitting point to end the story completely. We never really needed to come back and see how they were doing four years later. I'm just going to pretend this game never happened and I have zero interest in TLOU 3 should that ever be made.

    - Graphics are amazing
    - Gameplay is OK
    - Story is ambitious, yet a complete failure    … Expand

    A story driven game with a terrible story and zero respect for the game that came before it. It's the videogame equivalent of Terminator Dark Fate, Ghostbusters 2016 and modern Starwars, rolled into one awful mess, that only paid shill critics and bots will defend.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After my first play through I thought it was a good, but not great game with a lot of story issues. Ultimately the gameplay and graphics are both 10/10 but the story just falls flat for me.

    First, the things that I liked:

    1. I loved the visuals and graphics. It's definitely the best looking game on the PS4, along with U4, RDR2, and TLOU1.

    2. I loved the entirety of Ellie's part of the game. I could honestly play as Ellie for hours and never be bored. I think she's definitely my favorite character.

    3. I liked that all the characters have motivations, are morally grey, and have motives behind their actions. That is something I've always liked and I'm glad ND decided to do that to their characters.

    4. The actual gameplay, especially the combat and the stealth, seem improved from the first game.

    5. I actually liked a lot of the new characters, especially Ellie's group. Not so much Abby's group except for Owen.

    6. I actually loved the final fight between Ellie and Abby and liked the ending. I'm ok with Ellie deciding not to kill Abby even though I felt like Abby should have died.

    7. The worldbuilding was an added bonus I didn't expect. It felt very Fallout-y, which is a good thing.

    With that said, there are quite a few negatives that also brings this game down significantly:

    1. I don't buy Joel's actions in the prologue. I find it odd that Joel and Tommy were so willing to give up their names to a stranger even if they were trying to help her. They had to have known that people were coming after him to try and kill him, so I don't know why Tommy and Joel didn't have aliases for strangers that they don't know. Especially since both Tommy and Joel know what Joel did in the first game.

    2. Abby isn't a bad character, I empathized with her and understood where she came from and why she did certain things, but I didn't really enjoy playing as Abby. So it was quite a chore for me to play as Abby for 10-12 hours straight. I much preferred Ellie, and I found it a strange decision to have all the Ellie Days first, then switch to Abby for essentially the rest of the game.

    3. I hated fighting Ellie as Abby. I guess it's mainly because I really like Ellie and I think she's a much better person than Abby is so it was frustrating playing as the person I thought was morally worse than Ellie and trying to kill them.

    4. While Lev isn't a bad character, I honestly didn't understand why the entire Abby storyline revolved around him and Yara. I found it an odd writing decision to not even mention Ellie at all during Abby's storyline, or at the very least, not mention that a "trespasser" is causing trouble in the WLF portions of the city and they don't know who or what it is. The only time we see Ellie is at the theater when Abby confronts them.

    5. Other than Owen and maybe Lev I didn't really like any of the characters in Abby's side.

    6. There were some serious pacing issues with Abby's part of the story, which I felt dragged for a while with no real plot progression to the main storyline.

    7. Not having a moment where Abby comes to realize that killing Joel wasn't worth it, especially after helping out Lev and Yara, was a missed opportunity and an odd writing choice. Especially since we could have empathized with Abby even more if she came to realize in the end that killing Joel wasn't worth it.

    8. I had quite a few glitchy moments.

    I think I'm being generous with a 7/10. Its a fun game for the first half, but playing as Abby for 10-12 straight hours is quite a chore and messed with the pacing of the game. It is a fun and entertaining game though with great visuals and gameplay. So I think a 7 is appropriate here.    … Expand

    An excellent game that pushes the industry forward.

    Graphics 10 - Nothing bad to say here, the game is an absolute crazy graphic showcase, it has stunning lighting and particle effects, but the things that stand out the most are the crazy attention to detail on every aspect of the game, like the almost disgusting representation of violence or the the ridiculous amount of details in    An excellent game that pushes the industry forward.

    Graphics 10 - Nothing bad to say here, the game is an absolute crazy graphic showcase, it has stunning lighting and particle effects, but the things that stand out the most are the crazy attention to detail on every aspect of the game, like the almost disgusting representation of violence or the the ridiculous amount of details in character models and the best animation system i have ever seen, hands down.

    Sound 9.5: Every detail on ambient sound, voice acting and VFX are damn near perfect, it always makes you feel like it's supposed to, is truly immersive. Music is great overall, but some of the songs are lacking a little bit of strength and personality, that's not to say that the sound package is not impressive... in fact, i think this is one of the best sound designs of the year without a doubt.

    Gameplay 8.5: All the systems works wonderfully, melee combat is very brutal and engaging, the interactions with the environment while fighting are breath taking. The shooting system feels great overall and the fact that bullets are so rare makes it it feel like a luxury to shoot one. Stealth is very satisfactory because level design makes every combat feel like a sandbox where you can get creative. The only problem for me is that sometimes, the repetitiveness of the game loop can be a little too pronounced, i wish there were more set pieces or moments where gameplay changes a little bit... in a 12 hour adventure (like the first game) this is not a problem, but in a 24 hour one, it can get a little too repetitive at times.

    Story 8.0: I can see why a lot of people don't like the story, a lot of parts in the game are hard to watch and play... but i just can't stop thinking this: At last! we have a good true tragedy video game! this is a step forward to the industry, i'm very happy to see video game studios trying to expand narrative to new horizons.
    With that said, the execution has it's flaws, the structure of the story can get a little confusing and negatively affect the pacing at times, and there are one or two things that failed to be completely believable to me because some characters are, well... a little out of character.

    This game is fantastic in every sense, i respect so much the approximation of the story and the message, it was risky but for me it paid off entirely.    … Expand

    "A Flawed Masterpiece"
    This is a very hard review to write - there are parts of the story I adored beyond words, and there are parts that I hated to the point of very nearly putting down my controller and walking away. And yet... I'm so very glad I never did.
    Without spoiling anything, it's safe to say that there were some pretty extreme narrative risks taken in this production. Even    "A Flawed Masterpiece"
    This is a very hard review to write - there are parts of the story I adored beyond words, and there are parts that I hated to the point of very nearly putting down my controller and walking away. And yet... I'm so very glad I never did.

    Without spoiling anything, it's safe to say that there were some pretty extreme narrative risks taken in this production. Even having reached the end, it left me not satisfied, not happy - but rather, sad, confused, empty. I spent days pouring over the experience, trying to untangle the mess of emotions I was feeling (yes, still, days later) - and over time grew to accept, then grudgingly admire, then downright cherish the experience I've just played (lived) through.

    It's not a 10/10. There are some frustrating bits even outside of narrative, and while I did enjoy the story overall, I can't help but think that something could've been done to pace it better. And good grief I would've killed for an actual choice towards the very end... But this is largely nitpicking.

    Final verdict: I don't regret a single dollar, nor a single hour, I've spent on this game. It made me feel like **** but only because it wanted me to - never unintentionally. It's certainly a game that will challenge you not so much as a player, but as a human - and I while I appreciate that, not everyone will. Yet in my eyes, the biggest testimony to its achievement is the hole it's left behind. What other game could possibly measure up at this point?    … Expand

Story beats represent the game's reward and compel you to continue the adventure.

    The graphical quality and technical skill at work are admirable and noticeable nearly constantly. It's clear the team making this game chose to prioritize small moments to reward players with technical beauty and some of the best (painstaking) attention to animation detail. While elements like gameplay and story are somewhat subjective, it's clear that exceptional technical skill made this game possible on PS4.

    People who played the first game feel like the narrative of its sequel is too forced, doesn't match the characters, and doesn't include characters they enjoyed the first time around. I would suggest that--if you are only interested in this game for the plot--to watch someone else play the game or just read the synopsis. This sequel does require you to know the general plot of the first. There are enough hints in the introduction to get you up to speed, but the rest of the story will feel a bit like reading someone else's yearbook.

    Simply put, if you enjoy shooting/combat and puzzle-type gameplay, pretty graphics, and a dramatic-for-the-sake-of-being-dramatic plot, you've got yourself a great game to spend time on.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Graphics (10)- Obviously this is a naughtydog game. The graphics are spot on and so is the detail.

    Gameplay (10)- New mechanics enhance the experience of fights and although I don’t like killing dogs (RIP Alice) I liked their addition as a new challenge to play around

    Joel’s Death (5)- His death fit well into the story and the themes it tries to tell. The only reason I find it so difficult to see and play is because I love this character so much and his death isn’t exactly pretty. When Ellie turned up I felt like I was the one pleading for Abby to stop

    Abby (7)- I didn’t mind playing as Abby. I found the parallels between her and Ellie an interesting addition and I liked the insight to the WLF vs Scars. Also who doesn’t like playing fetch. But that sex scene was weird like where did that even come from.

    Lev (8)- I really enjoy Lev and Yara’s story. Although having Lev kill his mum seemed a bit extra. Felt he had enough trauma already but I can live with that.

    Ellie (7)- I love Ellie but I probably love the first game Ellie more. Some of the decisions she makes is just frustrating like stay at the farm! Although her letting Abby go I wasn’t mad about because I didn’t want Lev to be alone going forward in the story.

    Ellie & Dina (7) - Some flashbacks being in different areas could have helped the relationship feel more real but I liked the patrol action with Dina at the start of the game a lot

    JJ (10)- We defintally know who the dad is.

    Overall that would give the game an 8. Although I enjoyed the game (as well as the story) I still found the ending and other aspects to be very bittersweet. However, my favourite parts of the game were the flashbacks, the new Ellie style of combat vs Abby’s punch infected to death technique and the guitar was also fun to play around with. The game doesn’t deserve the hate it gets I didn’t find it to be that bad. For me the origional was a 10 and is still better than this game plot wise but that doesn’t mean this game is bad.    … Expand

I finished the game yesterday and i'm so glad I approached it the way I did. I'm generally a casual gamer. I play most games for the story and, to me, a great game is one that leaves you feeling like you don't know what else to do with your life after finishing it. The way you put down the controller as the credits roll and you don't want to do anything else but pick it back up and play it again because I just can't handle the feeling of the journey being over, the dreadful feeling of having to come back to reality and live my actual life. That was certainly a feeling that The Last of Us Pt. 2 gave to me. I thought that everything about story, the characters, the pacing, the way two different stories converged into a heartbreaking climax was all just wonderful. The combat hadn't changed a whole lot from the first game but, if it ain't broke don't fix it. There were some small changes but, I thought that all of them were positive changes. The game is graphically fantastic and there are some really beautiful and really beautifully dark locations. If you've read this far you know that some people have had a problem with some of the narrative and the themes of the story but, we are all different people and, i'm here to give my personal opinion. I've never posted a review on a game like this in my whole life and, after having the experience I did playing this game, I feel hurt to see people trash it.

The combination of stealth, gunfighting and discovering also really made the experience great and never boring. I also really apreciated the story. I loved it that there wasn't even a real stereotypical villain who is just evil because he is evil. The perspective of Abby also made sense.

You fight the same human enemies over and over again doing the exact same stealth kill animations every time (get use to this face. You're going to keep seeing it) or Abby do the same shoulder grab animation every few seconds.

    The infected fights are all as shallow as the first game so there's nothing redeeming there either.
    They spent 5+ years on this **** game and the only work they put into it was this ****ty ass story that isn't presented well. Events are not show in chronological order. This wouldn't be an issue, many stories have done this and done it successfully, but Part II decides to tell you one story, switch perspectives, then give you a flash back, then a dream sequence within that flash back, then a **** flash forward and then reset the whole damn thing in another perspective. All tension is **** lost by the time you get back to the climax. I don't want to get into the story beats because someone else will cover it anyways (retarded motivations, out of character actions, filler events just to extend playtime, that **** ending, etc.)

THE CON The last of us is a narrative driven game and sadly the story goes from "okay ill take it" to bad to ultimately worse. Seriously whoever wrote this its just not good with very few likable characters and a loss of direction. Ellie is on the cover of the game and you only play as her for like half of it. Its not the follow up to Joel and Ellies adventure. Its Ellie and other characters who I could care less about with a loss of purpose as the story goes on. Honestly pretty disappointed with how dumb it turned out. Maybe if you didn't play the first game you might like the story buy comparatively its not even in the same league. If you asked me 10 hrs into the game I would have given it a 9, 20hrs in an 8 and then after the conclusion its a 7. Final thoughts Congrats on the team for making and amazing "gameplay experience" that is unmatched Shame on the group of people that decide this was a story even worth considering and then actually sticking with it… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I thought the story was great- I think the characters act as they would have before and as such won't discuss that in this review. This is exactly what I personally wanted from tlou2. I enjoyed the introduction of new characters and liked following someone outside of Ellie and Joel's bubble, who had a wildly divergent background and perspective. Dina, Jesse, Yara and Lev, in particular, were charming and I wanted to see more of all of them. I empathised with Abby a lot and while I wasn't personally invested in her love triangle with Owen and Mel, I did like the protective role she took over Lev. To me, it felt reminiscent of early Ellie and Joel interactions and I liked it a lot. Their interactions made me laugh- Lev was pretty dry and I liked it. Abby's arc allowed for a thorough exploration of Seattle and the war between the two cults that controlled it which is removed from Ellie, which some clearly disliked but I enjoyed it- it felt meaningful and interesting, from the teachings of "the prophet" and the "sky bridges" to the resurgence of the Fireflies. I loved the character designs for all of the characters and the world design was outstanding, as to be expected of Naughty Dog.

    My only issue was zombie continuity- I wished there were more zombie variants, for example, I wished that Santa Barbara and Jackson had a different zombie variant similar to Seattle's Shamblers. I felt disappointment seeing a shambler in California after the characters theorised their formation was due to the wet climate- climatic mutations would be believable after 24 years of the cordyceps existing in the world. Also, only one in-game character model existed for the shamblers and bloaters. Hitting two shamblers with a mine would make them both fall to the ground, perfectly synchronised, completely breaking immersion. The Rat King was a very cool concept, but unfortunately not very grounded in reality which might be to some people's tastes but not to mine.    … Expand

    Beautiful game. Amazing job from naught dog. I love the sound design and the mocap is top notch. My favorite part was honestly just walking. The game has such an intense atmosphere, I forgot I was playing a game.

    Esperar 7 anos do primeiro jogo , todo esse tempo, para presenciar um enredo com descaracterização total de Ellie, Joel e Tommy. Uma das minhas maiores decepções como gamer!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. es una experiencia diferente te lleva del odio que te genera el primer acto con la muerte de joel, el hecho de que un videojuego te genere emociones tan extremas es algo que habla bien del director en medida que avanzas a la historia te da la oportunidad de vengarte de algunos de los culpables te hace sentir bien cuando llegas a la segunda mitad y entras al mundo de abby es extraño pues estas usando al personaje que mato a joel es agridulce, logran de alguna manera convertir al villano que llevas días persiguiendo lo humanizan lo convierten en un personaje tridimensional, joel era la figura paterna del juego pero al mismo tiempo era un personaje que fue malo muchos años ,por amor hizo un crimen de la humanidad ,joel no era bueno ni malo joel era humano y el viaje del segundo juego es un viaje de odio,resentimiento y redención de alguna manera,recomiendo que le den una oportunidad es un viaje que no te esperas pero es un viaje de emociones que uno no puede creer que un videojuego podría generar de principio a fin.… Expand

    This is a masterpiece!!!
    Anyone who says the story is terrible either wasn't paying attention, was skipping the cut scenes or has the emotional depth of an ant. You would be hard pushed to find another game that takes you on a journey TLOU 2 does. I'm not going to include any spoilers as to why, you need to experience this for yourself, all I can say is you won't be disappointed.

    One section did seem a little too long for me but the pay off at the end was well worth the journey. The lines are blurred between the good and the bad guys and at the end I still don't know who was right or wrong. Maybe everyone was in the wrong?
    TLOU 2 far surpasses the magnificent original IMO and there's been talk of a 3rd game although where they will go with that is a mystery.

    Please pay no attention to the review bombers on here, pick this gem up and prepare yourself for one of the best storylines in a game. You won't be disappointed    … Expand

    This is easily one of the best games I have ever played. Character development in these games is phenomenal, definitely worth the wait.

    Part 1 was truly awesome, but this time around Naughty Dog sacrifice great storytelling to cater a few.

    My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined.
    I waited 5 years to play this
    And they gave me a horrible intro and **** ending
    I just want to forget about this game.

    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]
