    I give it a 5 because in many categories this game is a masterpiece. The graphics are great, the music is heartwarming, and the gameplay has been improved. But the story is bad, it doesn't compare to the story of the first game, it doesn't capture its tone or mood.

    The first game had sadness, desolation and melancholy ... but also hope, there were gray scenarios but also colorful

    The first game had sadness, desolation and melancholy ... but also hope, there were gray scenarios but also colorful scenarios. This new game does not have that mixture, everything is gray and violent, perhaps with the exception of the flashbacks, but they do not fit perfectly.

    Druckman made a risky decision and he failed. He made decisions without limits (for example Bruce Straley) and he did not tolerate any criticism that told him that his decisions were not in the right way (from the Nuaghty Dog workers themselves neither from the testers). Directors like Druckman are successful once, but not always (because no worker will tolerate those conditions).

I didn’t mind the twist about Joel but it’s the presentation that seriously pissed me off. Only two things very good about this game are - 1. The graphics is breathtakingly beautiful and 2. Naughty Dog absolutely nailed the atmospheres. It's a 5/10 for everyone else. But for me it’s 0/10. I just don’t want to play this piece of **** ever again. Expand

    Although there are a lot of trouble in this game, I still see it as a good game after I pass through, the scene and the action inside is so beautiful, so many details, we cannot deny naughty dog's hard work, even they had been changed a lot by Nile.

    It would have been perfect if the Abby play part had come out in DLC, not in the main episode.
    At least if the user has given him a chance to choose whether to play Abby.

En el primer titulo el sentimiento que nos hacia sentir Naugthy Dog era amor, mejor dicho amor entre padre e hija y este segundo juego nos hace sentir odio, por eso toda la parte de Ellie se sentía satisfactoria, porque ese odio que nos daba el juego iba con los responsables de matar a Joel.
    en conclusión The Last of Us part 2 es en pocas palabras el mejor juego del año por darnos un mensaje que la mayoria de las personas no captaron, que es que en un mundo destrozado ya no importa nadie no importa si te estabas preparando para ser papa, para ser mama simplemente se trata de sobrevivir como puedas, que en el universo e The Last of Us no hay buenos ni malos, ya no hay humanos simplemente personas y que sin un sentido de vida la vida no seria vida

A good guy here and a bad guy there. No, that's not how it works. You can't say Abby deserved to die more than Ellie or the other way around. They're both good people just trying to survive in this **** up world. They both became obsessed with this whole revenge thing and they almost forgot who they really are. They're not evil.

Work with light is on high level. Nevertheless I would like to notice that we were waiting this game for 7 years. So THE GREATEST minus is absense of new gameplay mechanics. When i was playing this game my fillings was like im playing well made remaster of the first part. So there is literally nothing new, i mean fundamentally new mechanics. The second minus about the plot. When i was playing the first part i was filling the synergy between myself and the character im playing for. In this part i cannot do this. Even trying to force myself. Maybe if Naughty Dog wouldn't concentrate on things which are not deserve it, so plot could be much better. Now i can say that there is the worst plot and charactets created over the past 5 - 6 years. So we have high quality game from the point of view of technical part and the worst from the point of view of storytelling. It feels like "someone" has decided to sacrifice a good story in favor of imposing his worldview. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Well I will be something of the most direct, I am from Peru and I did not know whether to translate this into English but well, and after the game I could say that it is a masterpiece, I did not know where to start for me the characters are not sincerely forced since Everything has a purpose because it is the story of each one since it feels that not everyone or no one is the bad guy because each one has done too many things like Ellie thanks to his "revenge" that in the end he does not end up doing it and that's when Most of them complained to Neil Druckmann but no one realized that he also wrote the first installment and that it is politically correct for me there is nothing wrong that depends on each one, honestly Ellie's part I did not enjoy it much since I felt that It was wrong and there was a lot of repetition in eliminating enemies, I feel it unsatisfactory and too repetitive, but the game with what it wants to represent is quite good since The Last of Us Part II is what hatred wants to represent. To the depression we had over the ending and the death of Joel, like when Ellie finds herself overwhelmed by not killing Abby, but not many came to understand the ending and that's what bothered others, Ellie gets to learn the lesson where forgive Abby with Lev and in the end Joel, I feel that it was a good ending and just oh that it is also a lesson for us.

    The best game I've ever played, honestly. Nothing even comes close to the level of detail, polish and quality of storytelling. This game hit me hard like nothing else had. It made me love the first game even more and deepened my investment in this franchise tenfold. This is a divisive game, but you need to play it yourself, don't rely on the opinions of people who've never even touched the game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the best games I've ever played, and definitely the best story in a game.

    Technicaly, the game excels and surpasses its predecessor in many aspects. The jogabillity or controls are good, but not perfect, but just as in LoU, they work very well to break the monotony and give some action between the cutscenes. The visual, animations, and expressions, on the other hand, are just perfect and far better than I would ever expect for a PS4 game.

    But the story and characters are the best part of the game...

    I had low expections at start because Last of Us (part 1) ended in a way that didn't leave much were to go afterward, and I've also read that part 2 would be a journey of vengeance, which could be very empty. Well, it is not. The core of the game is about how complex the characters are and how broken or wrong they can be. Nothing in the story is black and white and even the worst enemies have reasons.

    I see there are lots of bad reviews of the game, but reading through them I can only understand that people who wrote those were not intelligent or adult enough to understand the plot.

    Last of Us part 2 makes the player do terrible things. It then gives the player control over the (at the time) antagonist and understand that she has a whole lot story and motivations of her own and to show how big and bad were the consequences of Ellie's actions. And this is simply a great decision from Naughty Dog...
    While we are used to games depicting the worse villans and faceless enemies, LoUp2 makes you care for, or at least understand, every one of them.

    I actually liked to play with Abby more, because her journey was to ascension while Ellie's was to damnation.

    That was hell of a way to tell anything you think and do might not be true and just. The things you do for the greater good or selfish desires can easly lead to others and innocents doom. It' s a very good way to say that people who believes that no one can possibly disagree with them for any honest reason is dangerous and pathetic for a stable and peaceful commnity too, just like Thomas Sowell said once.

    The last of us part 2 is not only outstanding in graphics, gameplay and acting, but has a story that invites you to go on the same arc as the characters.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The main problem that people had with this game is that Joel Miller dies, and that whole game revolves around Ellie seeking revenge. People have been saying that the only theme of the game is “revenge is bad”, and it is such a simplistic narrative to base a game around. But for me, I found this take on the revenge narrative to be really refreshing. I have seen the idea of “revenge is bad” done multiple times before, but usually in those stories, the audience has a clear idea of who is in the right, and who is in the wrong. In the Last Of Us 2, Neil Druckman provides the audience with all these sharply written characters, each with their own individual motives, and lets the audience decided who is in the rights. For example, Joel killed Abbys father because he was going to kill Ellie to try and develop a cure for the cordyceps virus, so Abby tracks down and kills Joel, which then motivates Ellie to seek revenge. We have all these different characters with their own motivations, but none of them are necessarily the right motivation. Each of these characters is caught in this cycle of violence and self destruction, to the point where it becomes incredible difficult to distinguish who is good and who is bad.
    I loved how this game set us up with a cliche protagonist vs antagonist story, but then abolishes these labels as the story continues. When the game began, I was supporting Ellies decision to kill Abby and make her pay for what she did. But as the story continued, we see that Ellie actions have equal, if not greater consequences, than the actions of Abby. Just as Abbys action of killing Joel was cruel and inhumane, Ellies actions of Killing all of Abbys friends just to gain revenge was also inhumane as well, hence the cycle of violence. I loved how this game actually let the player decide who’s actions are justified in this game, rather than face feeding it to them.
    The best part of this game was trying to figure out the motives of each character, specifically Ellie. We see Ellie pretty much destroy everything in her life in the peruse of revenge. Whilst it was really sad seeing Ellie loose Joel, it was heartbreaking to see her lose all of her other loved ones. We see Ellie choose revenge over her loved ones time and time again, because she just cannot shake the guilt of loosing Joel. Just as Joel’s decision to save Ellie forever damaged their relationship, Ellies decision to leave pushes away those close to her to continue to seek out revenge forever damages their relationship. The game provides an ugly, brutal and heartbreaking perception of the life of these characters, and I though that it was written to perfection.
    However, there was one major problem I had with the game, and that is when we shift to the perspective of Abby for the rest of the game. No matter how interesting a sub plot to a story it, if it doest relate to the main narrative, it is ultimately a waste of time. This is the case for Abbys Plot line. Whilst there are some off handed references to Ellies story, the majority of Abby story involves her interacting with new character and experiencing a story that is completely unrelated to the original narrative. I found it really hard to relate to Abby and her side characters because they just seems irrelevant, and for that whole segment I was just waiting to get back to Ellies side of the story. I think Neil Druckman was attempting to humanise Abby and flesh out her story, but embodying this concept within an unrelated plot line just feels frustrating.
    Which leads us to the ending of the game, where Ellie ultimately spares Abby's life. Despite popular believe, I really liked how this story ended. Throughout the entirety of this game, we have seen Ellie take up every opportunity to get revenge on Abby, regardless of what it cost. Time and time again Ellie has lost herself to revenge, and towards the end of the story, we see her final chance to walk away from this destructive lifestyle, as she is holding Abby under the water. For me, this moment was so powerful and tense, and I found myself hoping that Ellie would end her destructive cycle here and spare Abby in this one moment, and that is what she does. Even though Ellie has lost so much and sacrificed everything just to kill Abby, it is only as her own self destructive cycle of violence is about to end where she sees how little meaning is left in killing Abby, and decides to use this final moment to turn everything around. Up until this point, the player had no hope that we would ever see the same Ellie that we have known to love, as she has become this cold hearted monster. But this moment acts as the smallest bit of hope for the player to hold on to that the real Ellie isn’t lost after all. I think this is a good game because of these deep, powerful, though provoking themes, and I think it is an excellent example of great story telling.

    O que dizer de The Last Of Us Part2, Como não gostar de um game que lhe apresenta vários sentimentos bons e ruins, claro que há situações no game que não gostaríamos de ter acontecido mas isso nos mostra que nem todos saem vivos de uma situação, game demonstra uma rivalidade em que depois não sabemos qual dos lados ficar, um game que retrata muito bem a vingança e suas consequências

    "The gratest videogame descepcion"
    Yeah you must think is so exagereted, but this time Naughty Dog screwd a AMAZING videogame saga
    TLoU 1 is a great game, but this crap doesnt deserve the name of TLoU, they just get rid of Joel killing him, faster than a rooster sings, this game disapointed me and hundreds of thousands of more people, absolute sh*t, also the ellie character desingn was ugly, but the mechanics are great, that is something i must admit, also is boring, with awful writing, and repetitive.

    The community deserve something better.

Before I get into one of the worst stories ever. The gameplay is very average in today's modern gaming generation. There are minor improvements from the first game and enemy AI is dumb as ever. There are more cut scenes and walking than actual gameplay. SPOILER ALERT..... they destroyed all of your favorite characters. They dumb down Joel's character on purpose to make him weak and stupid. In the first game he was very smart and had a ton of experience. He didn't even trust a guy that was sick on the road. He chose to run him over. Later we find out that stranger on the road was not sick and it was all a set up. They do everything to make you dislike Joel and continue to spit on him. They have a trans female/male shoot him in the leg and torture him with a golf club right in the first 2 hours of the game. They spit on him literally. They made Ellie unlikable and a selfish human being. She kills everyone and continued to blame Joel for saving her life. She cared so much in saving humanity because she has the immunity but instead she became a lesbian and chose not to reproduce. Let that sink in. She even let's Abby the one that tortured and murdered Joel in front of her get away with it. Abby also bit off two of Ellie's fingers. Her letting Abby go is basically saying Joel deserved dying. A loveable character who is the main character of the game. There was no justice for Joel. This game robbed everything from you just for shock value. The current narrative of destroying the male character to make the female character rise is very weak story telling. It is disrespectful to both genders. Females even hate it. Worst of all the pacing of the story is horrible. You literally play as Abby the character we hate for half the game. They tried so hard to make us like her but none of it worked. This game is a waste of time and money and should have never been created as a sequel. The critics are liars and they don't care about what the fans want. They only care about their political narrative and force you to like something that you will never accept. Then they insult you by calling you names because you don't like the product they are praising. They are the worst kind of human being. Trust the gamers that actually love playing the kind of video games you like. Those are the ones who you should listen to. Vote with your wallet and avoid this dumpster fire. Why care for a game created by a studio that is run by Neil Druckmann who is a male feminist and does not care about the fans and the people he works with. That's why 75 percent of Naughty dog left the company due to how he treated them. This game is created by people that don't care about you and backed by people that hate you. The game wasn't made for the fans and gamers. Vote with your wallets and avoid this at all cost. Especially how they are trying to trick everyone with false advertisement into buying this. Look it up on YouTube. Don't trust the shill media. Watch the negative videos about this game and you will see the truth. Long live Joel and RIP to The Last of Us franchise. Expand

    Tip. Esto es algo que creo que no está de más mencionar, si eres un jugador casual y quieres que te guste este juego, como para estar de el bando de ambos personajes ( Ellie y Abby, las dos protagonistas ) y entenderlos de cierta manera y no odiar irracionalmente a un personaje por sus acciones en el juego a tal grado de ponerle un 0 como reseña ( de ahí la calificación de los usuarios ) tal vez jugar el primer juego no sea la mejor opción, ya que lo quieras o no desarrollaras un posible cariño incondicional hacia los personajes, aunque lamentablemente te estarías perdiendo de uno de los mejores juegos de la década, o hasta de la historia... Pero si eres lo suficientemente maduro para no hacer lo que mucha gente hizo en el lanzamiento de el juego te recomiendo que vivas la experiencia completa desde el primer hasta este último juego, es una completa locura, una hermosa experiencia.

    It’s true craftmanship to push the limits for the PS4 this far. At times it feels next-gen even though it runs in 30fps the animation is smooth, the combat is raw, the sfx is brutal, the voice acting sets a new standard, the storytelling is great (even though it I prefer the more straight forward tone in the first game I appreciate all the attempts to craft a modern approach.

    It is for those who want to play a good stealth, survivor game with really deep story.

    Pros:
    Excellent graphics, sound and music, voice acting, narrative, game play.
    Cons:
    none

    The biggest surprise was the accessibility options. I was planning to buy it with a price drop but half a month before the launch I heart that there accessibility options. I am visually impaired individual so I wanted to experience a game in a more accessible way. So I’ve pre-ordered the Special Edition so as to show the developers how important is that for me.
    I begun playing the game on 19 of June and I’ve stopped playing on 15 of August. I used the TTS options, the one that makes a sound for enemies and items if you enable it and the high-contrast mode (enemies red – allies blue).

    Outcome:
    It is the 2nd game in witch I have a platinum trophy, and I’ve played a lot of games.
    It was the first time I was playing with my back in the chair. Usually I play with my face 3 inches away from the screen.
    I could read for the first time all the documents (thanks to TTS).
    I have died less times than in other games but every time I was losing I was feeling safe.

    Many thanks to the developers I wish more games were so accessible.

    Finally, a lot of people criticize the game of hidden agendas and other things. I have to say that this is simply a game. If someone wants to disagree with the creators he/she can do that through out civilized ways.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I looked at negative reviews about this game, many complained about the plot, but to be honest I liked it, they showed that there is not specifically good and evil (here everyone decides to milk themselves), of course it's a pity that the "dogs" killed our beloved anti- hero (based on the first part) and gave way to a new character, like Dina and Jesse, but I'm used to this change (although it took more of the game's half). This game gave me mongo emotions that no other game has given me, for example: When Joel is killed or when Ellie enters an empty house and tries to play “If i ever were to loose you”. Sometimes these moments break through to tears ... In the gameplay component, I did not see so many new mechanics (breaking glass, crawling), but it feels nice enough. As for the continuation of this wonderful series of games, I think that TLOU 2 is concluding, yes there are plot holes, such as (what happened to Abby and Lev, Where did Dina go with JJ (maybe there is a note and I overlooked it, if that I will take this into account in the future), where Ellie went, she may wander around the mainland or went back to Jackson, but I think that for part 3 this is not enough, maximum DLC. From me this game gets 10/10, but not everyone will like it ( I did not take into account the moment with homosexuality in this game, if I am neutral about all this) and I advise fans of the series to go through this (in my opinion) MASTERPIECE!

    If you think that there needed to be more or clearer reasons for the events in the game to have happened, or the actions were simply out of character completely, that's understandable.

    I just want to say that we are all different, from our upbringings, morality and virtues. This game pushes that to the limit.

    Let's use Dunkey and Yahtzee as an example. They are both very honest in their reviews, and might like or dislike games most people may think are the opposite, but they seldom let public opinion scare them off from being honest about what they like or dislike.

    Yahtzee hated TLOU2. Dunkey loved it. Why are these two seemingly honest people saying two different things? It's simple, really: They are two different people.

    They fundamentally uphold different standards when it comes to rating and enjoying games.

    Yahtzee thought it was a horrible time, with uninteresting characters and a prime example of developer crunch.

    Dunkey thought it was a good story, with most of the actions the characters take being in-character, and the ending was the best course of action the devs could have taken.

    So who's wrong? Neither. They're both different people, and like different things. and when we compare that to the rest of TLOU fans, we start to have a revelation: What works for some people won't work for others.

    I just love it

    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.
