Interesting the violence did indeed turn some people off.

95 metacritic. Same score as the first game. They fucking did it again.
Never doubt Naughty Dog.

Doesn't matter, he's irrelevant.
95 meta might as well be 100 meta, cause we all know the reviewers only give those to Nintendo and R*.

I think 8/10 was correct score for first game. It was good looking, not too great to play, great story. Maybe 8,5 and not 8

Critical Analysis: The Last of Us: Part 2 - Play Diaries
Here's Play Diaries' review of The Last of Us: Part 2.
www.playdiaries.com
Final Thoughts:
The Last of Us: Part 2 is an utterly breathtaking experience from start to finish that has you questioning everything about the concepts of justice, revenge and how far you’d go for them. But combined with brilliant gameplay, you get one of the most complete gaming packages at the end of this outgoing generation. An incredible bow from Naughty Dog to the PS4 cycle.

Who the fuck wanted this to be 25 hours long? It's slow sneaking game stretched for 25 hours..... The only single player games this long that I like and don't get bored are souls games and some rpg games. 25 hours is just too long for single player sneaking
edit: ohhh it's one of those threads right? no criticism for saint last of us? Oh cmon.... ehhhh. I loved the first game. Just think it's gameplay was not the highlight at all. And 2nd one being 25h simple revenge story sounds meh

Yeah but Colin Moriarty who has the biggest PS podcast and the biggest computer game patreon in the world didn't get one and he is way better at this than some Aussie youtuber with terrible taste in games.

Test du jeu The Last of Us Part II sur PS4
Sept ans, c'est le temps qu'il nous aura fallu attendre pour enfin découvrir de quoi a été fait la vie de Joël et Ellie après les atrocités qu'ils ont vécu et enduré. Sept ans à imaginer comment Naughty Dog allait pouvoir concrétiser (ou non) les fantasmes de millions de joueurs resté...

Well think about this....I didn't like original Horizon Zero Dawn so there is pretty good chance I'm not gonna like the sequel but my opinion is irrelevant to people who did enjoyed the original game.

I'm going to predict 97.
Technically flawless, excellent gameplay, and appealing directly to the religion 90% of reviewers adhere to will getting them self flagelating with excitement.

There are many games where I loved sequel but disliked first game. Like Evil Within 2 for example so Your argument is invalid.
Besides - he liked The last of us1 and he says he even enjoyed gameplay. He just thinks it's not very good gameplay.
Watch his reviews. I think he is a very good reviewer. Not everyone have to love the game because it's the great the Last of Us.
I know this forum has a boner for naughty dog but cmon. Show some respect - not everyone has to have the same opinion

Seems the ones who didnt like it, thought it was too violent and dark.
To me, this is a good thing.

He is the best reviewer in the game at the moment, especially when it comes to appreciating great gameplay. He is irrelevant to metacritic sure, if that's all that matters to you then you're just a lost cause Sony fanboy.

Ah, I see you've found that one negative review you can now parade around as being the only true review because it justifies your preconceived feelings about the game.

Don't bite the bait people. Here is a mountain of W's. Why focus on a fart in the wind? It's statistically irrelevant, a futile exercise of no gain. Remember, engagement = you already lost.

Playstation bashing? Are You fucking kidding me? If I am critical it is because I love gaming. I have ps4 and I love it. Great games on it. Even replayed uc4 recently and love it.
Fuck off.
It's always like this - if a person dislikes something or shows a sign of criticism, then some guys search his history, analyze his posts just to drag it out.
I don't give a shit if it's xbox or playstation. I had 360 last gen and ps4 this gen and I love both.

It is the first review that popped out on my yt feed for some reason. Then I came here and saw that the game is praised. How is any of that my fault? We all know the feeling about this game was very negative in the last month

He is a paid shill, one week pushing Warface, the next Destiny..... He has no clue about gameplay.

from me? I love the first game. I am skeptical about most stuff but that has nothing to do with this.
The thread is sony fanboy hell. What is wrong with You. We all agreed yesterday but today little criticism is a hate crime?!!!
I will still probably buy tlou2 and enjoy it. It's just the first review I've seen

If you had any decent games on Xbox or PC, you wouldn't be here trying to pull down a masterpiece..... shows how bad things are when you're not on PlayStation. Go look at the spec sheet for Xbox Series X..... how many Tflops does it have again? I nearly forgot....

That's a fair point, but reviews from people who didn't care as much about/disliked the first are valuable to people who share that viewpoint, to see if the sequel fixes the issues they had.

They better substantiate a statement like that.
Update: Of course they didn’t explain themselves. A fluff statement that sounds profound without anything to back it up. Aiming for a box-quote.
From the review:
”The general consensus is that the narrative did the bulk of the heavy lifting in TLOU, with many finding the gameplay fairly stock-standard or underwhelming. While Naughty Dog certainly doesn’t reinvent the wheel when it comes to TLOU2’s gameplay, the mechanics feel a lot more refined this time around. Gunplay feels tighter and heftier, and melee combat is thing of violent beauty – hacking an enemy with an axe has never felt more brutally satisfying.”
This is why I don’t trust most reviewers/critics.

This is exactly the one that had a wording on it that gave me goose bump. I love games that question the very nature of established and followed morales, rules and justice.
I know this game will be 10/10 for me as narrative is almost always leading the way for me in such games.

If people can't deal with the violence Kotaku should send another tester.
With this argument all Tarantino Movies would be 2/10 and the majority of Tarrantino movies is about revenge and blood being spilled to imaginatively SLAY the prejudice, hate, slavery etc...

You are fucking stupid. How am I a fanboy of any system. I have 360, ps4 and good gaming pc.
And how am I "Pulling down a masterpiece" are You nuts?! I just posted link to review that's not mine. It's good to be critical. For exmple, I loved original Gears of war trilogy but disliked 4 and 5 but I am a microsoft fanboy ?!
