I love how they did the deaths in this game. No dramatic speeches while someone holds them, no going out in a blaze of glory like a hero, no nothing...

Just make one wrong move and it's over in an instant. Really sets the tone for the world they live in.

Anybody can get it

I’ve mentioned in this thread before, but for some reason when this game does it, it’s shytty writing, when RDR2 did it, it was brave and realistic

Joel was the heart and soul of the franchise not a bad decision to kill him but the way the game is structured they should have definitely made his death one of the final things that happened before the game ended. Narratively the revenge story is structured so badly that it kinda wants you to emphasize with Abby but they introduce her right as she kill Joel. No a sound decision. You have to build up to stuff like that. When Halo 2 had you play as the Arbiter they took him to his lowest before they had you fight and kill humans.

Ellie kills so many people up to the final fight with abby that her change of heart feels stupid. I'm sure all those people who were in love with the 1000s she's killed now are lining up to off her now. It would have meant more if she didn't fall so deep off the
This game ruined ellie something serious mind you no way can she go on being the same character we know and love anymore and then finally they wasted a chunk of time making you play as abby someone that I don't care about.
In fact this games biggest failing is that all the new characters suck ass so even if you did want to continue the franchise going forward you nothing for gamers to hold onto now.

Not sure why Sony let them ruin the franchise like this with no contingencies. Story games that rely on single player as their biggest selling point have to be tight and well crafted. This was by no means a bad AAA title but compared to the first game its not even close to that quality storywise

Overall this reminds me of game of thrones season 8 leaves you with a bad taste in your mouth.

Oh and for all the diversity they want props for they did a good job killing all the minority characters again this time

All facts

This Laura Bailey (:takedat:) interview is pretty great. There are some interesting tidbits about Abby, and some that didn't even make the game. Like a flashback of her going to the WLF and her relationship with Isaac (breh knew her father and that's why he goes to them) :ehh:

I can kind of see this...I’m actually looking forward to playing w/ abby...I’m kind of tired of ellie @ this point (storywise)...the love interest aspect of the game was just unnecessary and I would’ve honestly felt that way if she was w/ a guy...I just don’t need any love triangle bullshyt in the middle of a zombie apocalypse

to be fair tho in TLOU1 I wasn’t particularly fond of joel or ellie even tho I liked their relationship if that makes sense...joel was an old curmudgeon and ellie was annoyingly precocious imo...but together they worked...I respected their relationship even tho I didn’t like the characters that much individually

as I dive deeper into this game tho I think I would’ve liked a way for them to have joel and ellie work together a little bit more before they killed him off...the flashbacks have done a good job tho of keeping me tied into her thirst for vengeance

nikka didn't you just play the first game a few weeks ago or some shyt? Stfu nobody care about your wack ass opinion. You ain't wait years like most of us .. the fukk anyone care about someone who just got into the series??? Then you got the nerve to say people that criticize the game haven't really played it .. you sound dumb AF

like real talk I’m not even here to defend Joel
I pretty much could care less at this point

BUT what I just don’t understand why people as y’all don’t see the bigger picture, the fact of the matter which I posted this question from the very beginning and not one single person has been able to answer
Abby‘s father did not have the right to take Ellie life and as Joel stepped into the operating room Abby father should’ve just backed off let Joel take Ellie and kept it fukking move-ing
he grabbed a shank put it in Joel face and the rest is history

Joel did not kill Abby‘s father
Abby‘s father killed himself


:yeshrug:
