I got goosebumps like six times during this. A game comprised of wonderful, horrible moments. (Alice forever good girl)

Easily the most advanced game to date as far as general "feel" and fluidity goes, with a phenomenal, layered story about trauma and absolutely impeccable performances, especially from Ashley Johnson who, like, holy shit, right??? Maybe the best PS4 game, which is saying a LOT.

Dr(.)Uckmann basically calls himself an evil genius for 1)7 years of straight up false advertising 2)offing a protagonist for cheap shock value in the most nonsensical way conceivable, and 3)trying to get people to empathize with his killer by giving her the exact same "ruthless badass teams up with LGBTQ-kid and overcomes past sins and traumatic loss"-arc. Yeah, neil. Brilliant stuff. Technically, this game is as gorgeous as expected. Everything else just hurts like a golf club to the forehead.

Naughty Dog and writer/director Neil Druckmann have created the best narrative experience in a video game to date. I could stay in this world, with these characters, for thirty more hours, as they try to find solace and meaning in a burnt-out shell of a world. The gameplay is perfect; linear, unavoidably, but with a huge variety of compelling playstyles. This time, puzzles are satisfying and quick to complete. Couldn’t say it about the first, but I’ll say it about this one: masterpiece.

Nothing is played safe; likely the most daring narrative decisions in video games and without a doubt the most powerful, uncompromising interactive experience on a thematic level I have ever played. The heavy focus on complex themes and deeply rooted character work will surely leave some players angered or upset, but that is a risk Neil Druckmann and Naughty Dog are clearly willing to take and the game is all the better for it. This is something special. Story debate https://youtu.be/rf7JWMkzvHY

Everybody who calls this story lazy or bad must have been on shrooms. This is the first game to reach an actual movie-like quality while simultaneously making decent use of the game medium. Ya'll should start watching some of the all-time great movies, and then you'll realise just how far behind games have been until this point. It's only a 5 because I watched it instead of playing cause I'm not fond of modern ND games. But as a movie? Kojima, take notes!!

The Last of Us Part II is more of what I love and hate about video games simultaneously. The gameplay is improved but I feel like it's about 6 years behind. The plot gets out of zombie-cliche no. 74 but falls into contrivance far too often for comfort. The game is still focused on character and it gets that mostly right, though I do have my complaints. The biggest complaint is that it still feels embarrassed to be a video game which is why most time feels like it was spent on production design.
