The Last of Us Part II reviews

The first two hours were the best gaming experience of my life. Awesome vibes, everything goes perfectly fine and I think to myself ''alright, this is it, this is the peak of gaming industry''. Then it all goes to sh*t in one moment. Don't get me wrong, it's not like it's bad, but the whole story becomes so negative, anxious, depressing. The problem is that this doesn't change through the entire game and when it looks like it might get little bit happier, it all goes to sh*t again. Even the ending gives you such a wrong feeling, like there's something wrong and you can't even really tell why. There's literally not a single positive thing about the story. I guess it tries to show you the reality of post-apocalyptic world and I respect Naughty Dog for what they tried. It was risky shot and people are now hating on them.


Story aside, Naughty Dog as always raised the bar when it comes to graphics. Even on a 7 years old console the game looks just phenomenal.

Gameplay basically stayed the same, they just added few improvements, but if you are like me fan of stealth combined with action and exploring, there's nothing you can complain about.

Soundtrack is amazing.

The only thing I can really grumble about are these trailers. Why the hell would you bait us like that? This just wasn't fair and whoever came up with it should slap himself and step on a lego.

No game, movie or book ever had such a huge emotional impact on me. I feel like I bought an amazing game together with anxious and sadness. It's really well written and it has a strong message. I just don't feel like this is anyhow close to what I truly wanted or expected, but I take it as it is.

8.5/10

I keep flipflopping between Recommended and Meh ...

I’ve finished the game once and am currently in my second playthrough. However I’ve also played the first Last of Us, Resident Evil 2 Remake and Half Life: Alyx, and this game doesn’t do anything new or too special compared to those. I’m considering ending my second playthrough prematurely and spending some more time with the other games, because I’m not really enjoying it.
Adding to this, I have one major problem with Part 2: the first game had one of the best, most interesting endings and didn’t need a follow-up. Part 2 doesn’t take away anything from the first game’s ending, but also feels very unnecessary.

I do very much like the astounding amount of menu and accessibility options, some quality of life stuff, and a couple of the characters (though I don’t care about a lot of the others).
Naughty Dog have created a bold, exceptional masterpiece that expands on it's world and echoes messages that will have you questioning your own morality, and a duality path of revenge leading to empathy.

This game is everything I wanted it to be and more!
It's gut wrenching, nerve wreaking journey of some of the best written characters in recent gaming history. It's brutal as all hell and it goes ways other games would never go.
I get that some people have certain problems with the story, but to me the story is incredible. The depth to which Naughty Dog went to create believable characters is incomprehensible. Not to spoil anything all I say is - the story of this game is the epitome of the phrase "Every coin has two sides".
The technical aspects are also worth mentioning - game feels real even in the most unbelievable parts. From visuals to the sound and animation - every single artist who worked on this game deserves the highest praise.

I hope Cyberpunk 2077 will deliver, cause if not, than The Last Of Us Part II is easily my game of the year ;)
This is the best game i've ever played, i'm blown away.
