Tengo que decir que las dos primeras horas del juego se sentía que iba a ser mas una película que un videojuego pero después de este tiempo se crea un equilibrio en este sentido. Los personajes fueron introducidos de manera correcta porque no se siente forzado nada de la historia. Estoy muy satisfecho con el resultado final del juego. Se han arriesgado mucho en todos los sentidos y eso es de aplaudir.… Expand

    Last of Us Part 2 is one of the worst games I've ever played. I've never had to force myself to finish a story before because it was so bad. man i don’t believe that I’m waited 7 years for that trash.

    developers caved in under the LGBT minority, since when did Ellie become a lesbian? why does a woman look like a man? what nonsense? I hate LGBT minorities and especially hate when developers cave in under them

    The last of us opened our hearts to allow the last of us part 2 to spit into it. If you were a fan of part 1 do yourself a favor and ignore this part. I never ever tought i would say this but they should have pulled a half life 3 on this one and never release it, just say it will come out eventually. Only negative emotions with this game including boredome.

    The gameplay is awesome but the story sucks. The trailers and its predecessor made my Hope's for this game very high but I was disappointed when I realized that they edited the in game trailers to make it seem like it had an entirely different plot, to some it may just seem like it made the game more surprising but it just made me disappointed

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 20 20 has now literally been proved as the worst year of the century. So much misfortune and sadness has been put in front of us these past months and one of the most anticipated games of the last 3 years, that game that will make us escape real life and truly immerse us in the story, delivered exactly what the players didn't want.
    Trailers contained deceptive marketing to try and show that the game was going to be engaging, inspiring and emotional like the good old days on the first game. On the contrary you are left with a character you don't want to play as, depressed, and hating the game's plot. The only enjoyable moments were the flashbacks with Ellie and Joel and when you killed those bastards. My sympathies to the gaming developers of the game that worked their hearts out to make something visually beautiful, with amazing mechanics and fluid game-play, just to be ruined it with such a horrible story.

    Ready to play new game plus so I can kill those guys all over again, but probably won't do it because that means I'll have to play as that person.    … Expand

    Probably one of the worst games I have ever played. I am not going to touch the fact that identity politics was so obviously forced on the game since that doesn't really matter nor it bothers me. But the fact that the writing and storytelling are absolute disgusting makes the game worth nothing. I wish I would have spent all these hours doing something else.

    Combat, while not terrible, hasn't added much over 7 years since the first game. Most of the game you can crouch around enemies and do the same takedown knife animation. Gunplay could've used a upgrade, which it didn't get.

    Graphics are mostly top notch, just like the first. No complaints here. Just, beautiful.

    Story is absolute crap. And for a story based narrative game this is a huge turn off. Many characters are boring or outright cringe. Many, like Abby, are out right abominations. Playing the the story in the order it even is in makes little sence. Maybe having character backstory before deaths could've helped here.

The last of us ll is that it looks like a work of art, its graphics and its physics are excellent could not wait less, between cinematics and gameplay there are no differences the graphics are great, you feel the weight of the gun when shooting and the gameplay is good, but its story I do not like, it makes no sense to kill Joel and also touch you handle the killer of your favorite character, plus I have to handle Abby for a long time longer than necessary, the game tries to make you empathize with abby, but believe me, you can't, the last of us ll was expected by the story and camouflage the story as something raw but I don't play to have fun not for a game make me feel uncomfortable handling a protagonist who is not worth it like Abby, the end of the game was disastrous, Ellie does not get his revenge supposedly to break the cycle but Abby instead got his revenge and Ellie is left alone, without his girlfriend his son or Joel, is cruel in a forced story, it was not so difficult to make a better story.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Crap writing, crap characters. To make us play as a character who killed Joel is just TRASH! This was awful. I don’t understand the logic behind any of this game it is terrible! The fighting style somehow got worse. Joel and Ellie’s personality completely shifted which okay maybe Ellie make sense because she’s older but to make Joel who was a BOSS in the last game shift him and make weak and have him make terrible choices in this game. ????? And don’t get me started on Ellie’s girlfriend who had 0% of personality except to flip flop on if she was gay or not and keep Ellie hanging on like a lost puppy. Awful awful writing. Awful character development, AWFUL advertising to make us think Joel was alive JUST TO KILL HIM straight away and then make us continue to play as the person who BRUTALLY murders him. Disgusting. I wish PlayStation would allow me to get my money back!!!!!!… Expand

    The graphics, gameplay, and the level design are fantastic. The facial expressions are also superb. However, the story really destroys the entire game. The story itself is fairly good, but the sequence and pace in which the developers decided to tell the events was abysmal. The attempt to get the audience to feel sympathy for Abby's actions falls short because they decided to introduce her after she brutally tortures Joel. The sudden cut to Abby's past when the story reaches a climactic point was also poorly timed. For the sequel to a game that was centered Joel and Ellie, the writers shove Abby down your throat and attempt to force you to like her by making you play as her for half the game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolutely incredible. Never in my life as a game left me with tears running down my face. When I first started playing as Abby I was pissed I had to play was the person who tortured and murdered Joel. After "Day 2" I had no choice but to be invested in her story. I was again upset when I had to attack Ellie and then elated when Lev stops "me" from murdering Dina. When Ellie tracks Abby down in California I was fully prepared to murder Abby but she had Lev with her and they were both broken, when Ellie is drowning Abby I literally had tears running down my face.

    GOTY for me, never has a game made me so emotionally invested in the "villain" (whatever that means), because in Abby's story Ellie is the villain, so to be able to see both sides made me rethink how much I hated Abby in the beginning. Such an amazing and unique way to tell a story.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There is no denying that the gameplay and graphics are great but for a game that is single player only the story needs to be good and it is unfortunatly utter trash.After what she does and how she does it i had zero interest in playing as Abby, i don't care what Joel did and seeing it from her view still didn't make me change my views on Joel's actions and the fact that Abbys half of the game is just trying to make you feel sorry for her which i don't.I finished the game somehow slogging through the last half but wow that ending is awful and i'm guessing part 3 if there were plans for one won't happen after the obvious poor reception of Abbys character and the total destruction of Ellie and Joel's.It may be a massive success in terms of sales but this will do massive harm to Naughty dog's future games especially after the blatant misleading trailers showing Joel on the journey in scenes that don't even exist.I wanted this game to be good but it's a massive thumbs down from me.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had such high hopes for this game. Despite all the bad reviews I wanted to give it a fair chance. Honestly, the only good parts of the game for me were a couple of the flashbacks and the mechanics. If we had the story of the original with the gameplay of this one, you’d have a 10/10 from me.

    The established characters do so many uncharacteristic things. From what I understand, Tommy has always been a stick to the plan type of guy since he left the Fireflies, but they send him out on an unplanned murderous rampage. That’s more of an Ellie trait, but this time Ellie is the one with at least a little bit of a plan. It’s like Naughty Dog just threw out everything we knew about the characters’ personalities and made up completely different people that happened to have the same names. The most disappointing part about all this is how misleading the trailers were. They straight up switched Joel out with Jesse in one of them. Maybe if they gave us the game we were shown then it wouldn’t have been so bad. Overall, if you care about the original game, don’t touch this one. But if you know nothing about the original and don’t care about the story, then you might like this one. I guess thank you Naughty Dog for teaching me to never preorder a game again.    … Expand

I suppose they wanted to try and make a work of art and used a lot of controversial topics, but they missed the point and created a frustrating, bad story. Graphics and technical features are very important in a game, but what makes a great game is an amazing story and great characters. I think Neil Druckman created a very good first game, but he definitely fell short in the second part, mostly because he wanted to create something controversial, and he ended up adding a lot of irrelevant details to a very bad and horrible story. I don't even know why the critics gave this game such great ratings. Not good, I wished I had not preordered it. All the characters are bad and empty. The only cool character is Ellie but you only play as her only 50% of the time. Big thumbs down for me. The end is also a big disappointment. No no no.

Okay it's time for me to chime in I'm not your average gamer I'm a little bit older than the majority of people that play video games I'm in my 50's so I may have a different outlook on life of how things play out compared to a younger person. I initially saw the leaks that came out and I was kind of bummed out to hear that Joel was going to be killed off but I kept an open mind that this is a fictional story and a lot of our heroes in movies die all the time. I saw a lot of people posting memes and saying a bunch of negative things. I had pre-ordered the game and said I will make my own assessment and so far the game play is outstanding and the storyline is not as bad as people are saying once you get over the part of Joel getting killed off. A lot of these YouTubers that are giving negative feedback on the game are young people and they're pretty much all jumping on the bandwagon regurgitating the same thing the last person said for likes on their videos. If you're thinking about getting the game get it don't worry about what other people are saying buy it for yourself and enjoy it.… Expand

    Naughty dog straight up lied about their game. They replaced character models in trailers to make us think certain characters would be a bigger part of the story than they really were. They then tried to make a story about how bad guys aren't always bad, but the character in question was **** and they forced them onto us. Don't buy this **** game.

I put the game down after watching you tubers explain that I’d be playing Abbey for 10 hours. I asked for a refund, and was of course told “no” since I’d already opened the package and downloaded the game. Wait until it’s $10 on steam if you’re into playing a game that makes you irritated and pissed for 23 hours. Games are supposed to be enjoyable. This is the opposite of enjoyable. The graphics are fine and the gameplay is meh, but definitely far from a selling point when the story is this bad and disgusting. 2/10… Expand

This game is a huge disappointment the first story was about endure and survive the second one I admit the graphics were great the soundtrack was amazing, but terrible story writing Naught Dog did whatever they can to make us hate Joel and Ellie, what Joel was going around killing innocent people, the people feel sorry for Abby, gave Abby better weapons, choke out people, better boss fights, better shooting games, nice to animals, as for Ellie they made her kill pregnant woman, dogs, she was just out of character, I can't believe what ND did to the characters we love and to introduce a new playable character we are forced to play, they did whatever they could to make people like Abby and hate Joel, I have never be so angry over a game, I waited 7 years for this? I hated playing this game it is complete trash never playing it again. If you have played this game, you can clearly see they gave Abby better weapons, better boss fights, target shooting at gun range, target shooting with bow, plays catch with dogs so you can enjoy playing as her, for Ellie she is going around killing dogs, smoking weed. I just want to wake up from a bad dream I can't believe ND destroyed a game I love, I will always love the first game Neil did say.

They wanted to show us that revenge never does any good by making us sympathize with the antagonist of the game but that never happened with me. I never liked Abby throughout the game because she killed such a beloved character. And while I’m talking about Joel, he was one of the smartest people in the first game as he was cautious of whoever he was with but in this game he literally went into a random person’s base and told them his actual name and I know he would’ve never done that.… Expand

And my personal favorite: Ellie holding a gun to someone and having an opportunity to pull the trigger but somehow she loses her upper hand and the situation goes to **** It's so repetitive at this point and feels like they ran out of ideas.

    Gameplay is not anything new or groundbreaking despite the focus on details. The story is very generic and not necessarily compelling to have you connect with the cast of characters like in Last of us part 1. The lack of choices for your actions is something lacking in modern gaming where you can combine a great story along with having your choices feel impactful.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Cuando un juego tiene un final agradable se vuelve rejugable, siempre deben tratar que exista un equilibrio en cuanto a lo que te dan y te quitan. 1) El papá de Abby, las luciérnagas y Marlene merecían morir? Sí, porque querían sacrificar a Ellie para desarrollar una vacuna (aunque Ellie quería hacerlo, la decisión la estaban tomando ellos). 2) Joel merecía morir? Sí, porque mató al papá de Abby y ella tenía derecho a cobrar venganza.
    3) Abby merecía morir? Sí, por matar a Joel que era como el papá de Ellie.
    Tres desilusiones:
    A) Ellie debía matar a Abby y su grupo, porque no solo lo mataron a Joel, sino que lo escupieron después de matarlo como si fuese una sucia rata, algo que Joel jamás hizo con nadie, ni siquiera con quienes quisieron hacer daño a Ellie.
    B) Para mí la peor desilusión de todas, Ellie no quedó en buenos términos con Joel. Algo hubiese reconfortado saber que lograron superar sus diferencias y que Joel hubiese muerto sabiendo que Ellie lo perdonó. Esa última escena, en el cierre del juego, si Ellie hubiese abrazado a Joel y le hubiese dicho que lo ama y perdona hubiese sido un mejor cierre para lo que significa Joel en the last of us.. Algo hubiese reconfortado. C) Tratar de hacer ver a Abby como la víctima no me gustó en lo absoluto, no disfruté el juego con ella,... No lo quiero volver a jugar estoy decepcionado y me siento estafado... Primera y última vez que apuesto por naugthy dog en compra anticipada.

    The game is fun until you play as Abbey. You really can’t enjoy playing with her, because you hate her the entire time for killing Joel. That goes for her friends as well. Honestly this game has no emotional connection to any of the characters. All the new characters have no character development. Their character development is getting revenge on Joel for saving Ellie. I just can’t see a point or a conclusion on why this game exists. The game literally total pointless story about revenge.

The games storyline does not allow you to properly build a connection or relation to her that would make playing as her better. Another issue I have with this game is the lack of multiplayer. Factions was an amazing and special multiplayer experience in the first game and brought something that you really couldn’t find anywhere else. I really wanted to love this game. I played it twice and really tried my best to relate or understand Abby but I just couldn’t get past how much I hated playing as her.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Last of Us 2 was hard to get through. The game is very intense and kept me on the edge of my seat.

    Graphics: Visually stunning. Environments look realistic with the fantastic lighting. Animations are superb. The characters have weight to them when you move. The game has some of the best looking water I've ever seen.

    Sound: This is what made the game so intense and immersive. The calls of the infected are chilling. Killing people was especially gruesome. If you injure someone they'll scream as they bleed out or gurgle through a slit throat.

    Gameplay: Here is where I felt the game fell a little flat. Combat is mostly the same from the first game, but the way in which you interact with the environment is vastly improved. Letting players go prone and able to go under structures and vehicles felt really good. The game is exceptionally violent but it does not glorify it.

    Story: I liked it a lot. There are major character developments that shake up the series. The story is depressing but in a way that makes sense.

    Overall: A 9/10 for me. I had no idea what to expect from it and thoroughly enjoyed the game.    … Expand

Вместо того, чтобы поменять порядок частей, дать сначала отыграть за Эбби и проникнуться мотивацией, нас заставляют (а это игра, где нельзя скипануть геймплей) играть за персонажа, который считывается сразу. Все ее поступки предсказуемы. И ты играешь, надеясь на глубину, а ее нет. Просто тратишь время на однообразный геймплей, который работает только в связке с острым сюжетом и переживаниями. Как только они исчезают, геймплей начинает раздражать. В итоге, получается плохая работа, которую, конечно же, защищают тем, что мы просто чего-то не поняли или слишком неэмпатичны , чтобы прочувствовать. Но история, за всей мишурой глубины, очень и очень простая с обеих сторон: со стороны Элли и со стороны Эбби. Просто в первой половине есть эмоциональная привязка, во второй ее нет.

    Концовка, вообще, раздражает.

    But let me tell you something, this game falls on a blunder that is typical for amateur hour to pull, and that's when we get to the "this is where we're gonna kill Joel", you'd expect that the writers expect Abby to monologue to Joel about who she is and why she's about to murder him. But instead it plays on the audience/player expectation to connect the dots and reach that leap of logic. In the game's story, Abby could have taken out any random Joel to suit her revenge, but it just so happens she lucked out. That's risky writing since that can come off as lazy, rushed, and amateur.    … Expand

    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.
