Sony The Last of US Part II (PS4)
Everything that I've done. It can't be for nothing. Five years after their dangerous journey across the post-pandemic United States, Ellie and Joel have settled down in Jackson, Wyoming. Living amongst a thriving community of survivors has allowed them peace and stability, despite the constant threat of the infected and other, more desperate survivors. When a violent event disrupts that peace, Ellie embarks on a relentless journey to carry out justice and find closure. As she hunts those responsible, one by one, she is confronted with the devastating physical and emotional repercussions of her actions.

Okay, let me start off by saying I knew what I was getting into when I bought this title. It certainly carries a lot of controversy behind it, but it also carries a ridiculously high pedigree to go along with. The developers, Naughty Dog, are known for pushing the graphical fidelity of any PlayStation game they develop to their maximum limit, and often back it up with smooth gameplay to go along with.This title is certainly no exception to that rule, graphically it's one of the best looking titles on PS4, looking fantastic on the PS4 Pro with the environments absolutely bursting with detail. They truly did go all out to paint a post-apocalyptic landscape that is teeming with flora and some fauna to go along with, it's absolutely jaw-dropping to look at and there's ... MoreOkay, let me start off by saying I knew what I was getting into when I bought this title.

They truly did go all out to paint a post-apocalyptic landscape that is teeming with flora and some fauna to go along with, it's absolutely jaw-dropping to look at and there's a fair amount of it to explore when the game truly begins to open up.Gameplay wise, it's quite good too. The combat is visceral and there's nothing more satisfying than getting stealth kills and not having to use your limited supply of ammunition. There are moments in the game where the action can get very intense and as the game itself opens up, you have some form of exploration between destinations. I wouldn't say it's open world or a sandbox by a nautical mile though, but it does its job and does it well.The game does pick up from the previous installment, and sees the return of Joel and Ellie, the protagonist and deuterologist of the first game. It is also quite LGBTQ friendly in terms of character development to boot, which is great. It makes all the characters seem much more human and believable. The voice acting is top notch, the actors and actresses reprising their roles and the new ones who stepped in to the studio all did a fantastic job of conveying emotion.It's the story where the game truly begins to falter. I'm going to come out and say it right now, this is no masterpiece of storytelling. This is where the whole thing almost falls apart. The story leaves much to be desired, I won't say how though as I wish not to spoil it for those who haven't played the game yet, but trust me, it's not nearly as satisfying as it could've been.All in all though, the game itself is solid, all the foundations are there, but it could've been so much better than what it is. Somehow the game feels less than the sum of its parts. Don't let my opinion deter you much though, like I said, it's a decent action/survival horror game that serves as an absolute graphical showpiece on what the PS4 is truly capable of, and basically serves as one of the systems major swan songs. If you can overlook the flawed story, you'll be in for a good time.

I loved the Last of Us. I like this one. Technically this game is a masterpiece even when compared to Next-gen games. The graphics, music, sound, animations, etc, are all industry highs and the team who made this are to be applauded. The gameplay is more refined than the first game and it leads to more flexibility in how you choose to take on your enemies.Unfortunately the story is much weaker than the first game and the characters are much less interesting than the first game which makes repeat play through a bit more of a grind than in the first. Additionally the pacing isn't as tight. TLOU2 suffers from a lot of tedious fights.

In this one it felt like they took that final hospital sequence and stretched it out to a lot of the games. You'll go from one section fighting a large squad of enemies, open a door, and the next room has just as many as the section you just completed.But overall this is a good game. It just falls short of the overall greatness of the the first game.

What's good - Excellent graphics, gameplay, character models, exploration, environments, combat, stealth, music, upgrading, & the Joel & Ellie flashback scenes brought a tear to my eye, they were the heart & soul of TLOU. What's not so good - The story, it's depressing & convoluted, Joel's death felt rushed, the pacing was too slow at times (especially with Abby's gameplay), too many cutscenes (sometimes 3 or 4 in a row) & loading, Abby flashbacks with Owen are boring, we really don't get to spend enough in-game real-time to learn to care about these characters in advance, too many "endings", the game could have ended sooner but it went on a bit more, two unnecessary boss fights between Ellie & Abby, just needed the one boss fight at the very end. Overall, it was a ... MoreWhat's good - Excellent graphics, gameplay, character models, exploration, environments, combat, stealth, music, upgrading, & the Joel & Ellie flashback scenes brought a tear to my eye, they were the heart & soul of TLOU.

Overall, it was a good game, ND got so many things right, & I love the whole Last of Us universe, but the fractured relationship between Joel & Ellie felt like I missed a Part 1.5, also, the Bonus features such as turning on Infinite Ammo & Crafting felt odd for a survival horror game, it would have been better if they had put in a "gameplay mode", that allowed you to skip the cutscenes automatically, I would also like if they added the ability to lockpick vehicles for more items & collectables. It took me just over 33hrs (I skipped as many cutscenes as possible) to complete the game, & I found 197 items & collectables. I would rate the game a 7.5 - 8 out of 10.

[Potential spoilers within this review]Knowing the mixed reviews this game had before I played it may have colored my perception of it, but I still found it to be overall enjoyable with some elements holding it back.Pros:-I was a fan of the story. Even though there were some inconsistencies with certain story beats compared to the first game (like Joel's personality/habits as an example), I appreciate that this game tried to do something different and tell a different kind of story.-Although they didn't feel that varied, I appreciate that the game had more variety of enemies when compared to the first game.-The graphics were amazing and I felt more immersed in the game because of it.-The gameplay was a bit more polished compared to the first game, even if ... More[Potential spoilers within this review]Knowing the mixed reviews this game had before I played it may have colored my perception of it, but I still found it to be overall enjoyable with some elements holding it back.Pros:-I was a fan of the story.

I was annoyed by the rewinding of time to play as a whole other character that I didn't feel much of a connection to. This made the game feel like it was outstaying its welcome.-As mentioned before, there were some inconsistencies with story beats such as Joel revealing his identity or the way the main story ended before jumping ahead in time.-Some of the open-world sections were a bit too open-world for my taste. It just felt like I was constantly scavenging and it slowed down the pace of the game.
Re-Played this last week and my god what an experience. I feel the same way thr first time I played 3 years ago. Mad, sad, happy, scared, nervous. So many emotions come out of me while playing this game.On top of the amazing captivating story experience. The gameplay is topnotch, its like if Resident Evil and Metal Gear had a baby you'd have stelth action horror game. Its so satisfying to pop up outta the shrubs and stelth kill infected or pop out the grass and snipe an unsuspecting human npc.The music and voice acting is also outstanding, gustavo santaolalla & mac quayle provide a haunting, emotional heart pumping soundtrack while ur fighting for survival or simply having a tender moment between characters.Anyway, I recommend anyone picking this game up and ... MoreRe-Played this last week and my god what an experience.

Finally got around to playing this "could have been masterpiece." I tried to put my preconceived notions aside based on all of the videos I watched on YouTube trashing the game and I was pleasantly surprised. The graphics are top-tier, possibly the best of the generation. The animations and character models are amazing and sometimes you forget they're not real. It is brutal though. The gore and killing is extremely graphic and it is like that throughout the entire game. Savage. Some of the encounters or battles that are pertinent to the story are awesome as well. They will really leave an impression. BUUUUUT... There are a lot of dumb story decisions that were made by the Druckman (game director) and after really analyzing the events, it is pretty dumb. And this IS ... MoreFinally got around to playing this "could have been masterpiece."

And this IS a game that you play for the story, so don't get it twisted. This one isn't about the gameplay. It's basically a movie, with some genuinely bad decisions in the writing. This game also has a lot of LGBT agenda throughout. It is painfully clear within the first 2 hours where this game is going. But if you shut your brain off and love anything Sony/Naughty Dog put out, this is quite the experience. It just could have been an objectively god-tier game for everyone instead of just a masterpiece for some. Missed opportunity.
This game is a masterpiece exploring the consequences that our actions have and the trauma people endure for and with each other. Without spoiling anything the game focuses on Ellie and how her relationship with Joel has changed in the 5 year following the first chapter in the series and it is handled masterfully as both a heartfelt coming of age story as a father figure becomes more understood by our heroine and a dark reminder that our choices define us and we can corrupt ourselves with those choices in pursuit of a goal.The gameplay loop is the most well refined and fast paced stealth gameplay I have experienced. Enemies call out to each other, respond to your actions realistically (no "must've just been the wind" with an arrow in their face), and even have ... MoreThis game is a masterpiece exploring the consequences that our actions have and the trauma people endure for and with each other.

Enemies call out to each other, respond to your actions realistically (no "must've just been the wind" with an arrow in their face), and even have unique tricks up their sleeves depending on their faction, weapon type, and the presence of allies. If you enjoyed the first game then you will assuredly like the new more refined experience as it fixes and tweak many of the issues that were a problem in the previous game (forced combat sections, limited mobility/verticality, and stupid enemy AI).A true defining moment in game story and mechanics.5/5
The gameplay is great. Graphics are great. The game length is pretty good.Here's the concern: The first game is a practical masterpiece. The second game was hugely anticipated. Unfortunately, certain decisions around this game will be a tossup with players. Whether these decisions bother you or not, it will depend on if you're willing to take the plunge on this game. I gave it a shot cause it was a few bucks brand new. And I feel like the game was polarizing to many folks because of these 'certain decisions'. But for the price, I finally had a chance to experience this game and get it finished.The best I can do is 3*. Just because the game is unfortunately the kind that has divided the community that played, known, and loved the Last of Us. And I would prefer ... MoreThe gameplay is great. Graphics are great.

This game was absolutely INCREDIBLE! Without a doubt this is one of the best stories i have ever experienced. The story was extremely unique and thought provoking, and it made me feel the full range of emotions over the course of its runtime.In conventional narrative fiction, there are ‘good’ characters and there are ‘bad’ characters. While this structure is good at creating easy to consume stories with likeable protagonists, it is not a true reflection of reality. In real life, no one is entirely evil, and no one is entirely good. Everyone has their own motivation for why they are acting the way that they are.What i love about this game is that every character acts in a way that they think is justified. In doing so, conflict is created and characters in ... MoreThis game was absolutely INCREDIBLE! Without a doubt this is one of the best stories i have ever experienced.

While this structure is good at creating easy to consume stories with likeable protagonists, it is not a true reflection of reality. In real life, no one is entirely evil, and no one is entirely good. Everyone has their own motivation for why they are acting the way that they are.What i love about this game is that every character acts in a way that they think is justified. In doing so, conflict is created and characters in different groups all begin to hate each other. The game does a fantastic job of showing how even though we humans may split ourselves into different tribes and groups, fundamentally what we all want is the same. The game’s message is that violence is never the way to resolve conflict, as no one ever wins when violence is involved.Overall i would highly recommend you play this game. It had a profound impact on me, and it very likely will have a profound impact on you too. Don’t let the bad reviews discourage you. Allow yourself to come to your own conclusion about this incredible game.***THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF MY SPOILER REVIEW!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!***At the end of the first last of us game, Joel made an extremely difficult and consequential decision. He decided to save Ellie, and as a result prevented the creation of a vaccine and caused the deaths of millions of people around the world and possibly doomed humanity to extinction. This act was incredibly selfish and could easily be interpreted as evil.This game deals with the consequences of that decision. It explores the paths of two characters, Ellie and Abby, characters who were on different sides of Joel’s decision.Joel kills Abby’s father, who was trying to create a vaccine that would save humanity. This is something that Abby cannot forgive him for, and so she seeks revenge and murders him. From Abby’s perspective, Joel is the villain and she is entirely justified in her decision to kill him.Ellie obviously loves Joel, as he saved her life. In response to his murder, she views Abby as the villain, and seeks revenge on her and her crew. She travels to Seattle and ruthlessly murders all of Abby’s friends in her pursuit of justice. She becomes increasingly deranged throughout her campaign, and you as the player are forced to do some incredibly morally reprehensible things as her. I found this to be incredibly thought provoking, as it demonstrates how one violent act begets another, how the cycle of violence is continuous and how it is very difficult to break.For the second half of the game, you are forced to play as Abby. She realises that killing Joel hasn’t actually made her feel any better about the loss of her father. She realises that violence will not make her feel better, and she refuses to join the WLF’s attack on the seraphites. She instead decides to save the lives of two seraphite kids who have been shunned by their community. This segment of the game shows how all humans, regardless of tribe (WLF or seraphite), are fundamentally all the same. The war between the WLF and Seraphites at the end of Abby’s journey shows that no one wins in war, and everyone loses. It demonstrates that violence is never the way to resolve disputes.Right at the end of the game, when Ellie confronts Abby, she realises that killing Abby won’t bring Joel back, and that Abby’s motivations are just as valid as hers. She spares Abby, and the game ends.While i understand much of the criticism directed at this story, and i recognise that it isn’t for everyone, i had an absolutely incredible experience playing this game. At its core, the game teaches us that violence is never the correct way to handle a situation. It does this by exposing the player to some of the most horrific violence imaginable, to demonstrate the severe consequences that it can have.If you have made it this far into my review, i just want to say thank you. I don’t normally write reviews for games, but this one stuck with me for a while after i finished playing it, and i had to get this off my chest. This game absolutely deserves all of the game of the year awards it received, and is easily one of the best games ever created.
I recently purchased The Last of Us Part II Standard Edition for my PlayStation 4, and I have to say, I am completely blown away by this game! The graphics are absolutely stunning, and the gameplay is incredibly engaging and immersive.The storyline is also one of the best I've ever experienced in a video game. It's emotional, thought-provoking, and keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. The character development is superb, and you really feel invested in the fates of the characters as you progress through the game.One of the things that I love most about The Last of Us Part II is the attention to detail that the developers put into every aspect of the game.
