Graphics and Sound

Detailed post-apoc ruins, lifelike animations. Somber guitar score. Graphics and audio: 9 out of 10.

Woke Nonsense Factor

The Last of Us Part II faced massive woke controversy over its lesbian lead, muscular female characters like Abby seen as pandering, and themes pushing progressive agendas. Critics accused it of woke capitalism with scandalous relationships and forced diversity. Backlash included review bombs for SJW elements. Woke Meter: 90%—intense inclusive focus.

Final Verdict

The Last of Us Part II grips with unflinching drama and action. Not for the faint-hearted, but a bold evolution. Survival story fans, brace yourself. 9/10 Scoops – A gritty apocalypse gelato with bitter bites.
