Fans Have Started Review Bombing The Last of Us Season 2 After Episode 2

Expert Verified By

Fans Aren't Too Happy With The 2nd Episode!

Story Highlight
  • The Last of Us season 2, episode 2, has just dropped, and fans are review-bombing it. 
  • The game exhibited a similar trend, as it was criticized for its questionable story choices. 
  • The show is also under fire for unreasonable castings, especially for Ellie and Abby. 

The Last of Us season 2 episode 2 just dropped, and fans don’t seem to like it that much. The show began with a near-perfect Rotten Tomatoes rating of over 96%, with fans and critics calling it the best game TV adaptation of all time. 

Now, after the second episode, while the critics’ rating is still relatively high, The Last of Us episode 2 is facing a massive review bombing, which has led to a significant drop in the rating to just 53%. 

Why it matters: Fans were already quite skeptical about the casting choices in the TV show, but the new episode has somehow led them to review bomb it, marking a significant dip in the review score. 

The Last of Us Season 2 is getting review-bombed by the audience

On Rotten Tomatoes, the rating for The Last of Us Season 2, which initially received a perfect score for the first episode, has now fallen to just over 50%. There are multiple reasons for the fall, but it is also related to a specific event that occurs. 

When The Last of Us Part 2 released, it also saw a similar trend. Fans weren’t pleased with some of the storyline choices, which led to a significant amount of negative feedback. However, the game still won record game awards for its time.

The show was already under fire for questionable casting choices

The show primarily follows the same plot line, but fans also raised a lot of eyebrows with the casting, especially for Ellie and Abby. Larger criticism centers around Abby, where Kaitlyn Dever doesn’t resemble her game counterpart at all.
