Everyone will be playing the game as someone they hate, wishing they could play as the character they're trying to kill.

I dont understand who thought that was a good idea, it effects the enjoyment of the game.

I can see why the turnover at ND during development wasn't just crunch, because leaks constantly painted a picture of an internal power struggle and creative differences among staff with people just being super indifferent with game by saying "It'll still be a great/fantastic game."

A lot of games go through crunch, but a lot of people make it through because they love the product. This tells me people hated the direction of the game and crunch just made it not worth it.

She's also willing to slit the throat of a completely innocent pregnant woman, which is some extremely demonic shyt, I dont see how we're gonna connect with her.

She seems like a straight up monster while joel did what he had to to survive.


Ok but look at it from here eyes, you came thru and killed everybody in the lab to save some goofy bytch, they were innocent in all of this...

Now who is the monster...

So without any additional spoilers/details, in the most simplest way possible can someone tell me at what point you play as this new character? You start as her or is it later? And roughly what sorta percentage of the game are we playing as this buff bytch?

I saw this brief synopsis of the story and everything leading up to the ending makes sense so it has to be true:



Ellie and Dina basically are spared by Abby and despite Dina trying to move on after she gives birth Ellie has to get revenge for Joel getting his head caved in by Abby. Ellie putting on Joel’s jacket at the end is a set up for a third game which will probably take another 6 years if it even comes out.

I don’t know exactly but everyone’s been saying about 50% in. Maybe even earlier.

As in you finish as the new chick?

they could of legit had this EXACT same plot with her killing Joel for the same reasons, but still have you play as Ellie as the whole game tracking her in Revenge for Joel, not sure why they had to be extra with it and make you play as Joel’s Murderer, “subvert expectations” culture keeps fukking with all my favourite media :francis:

They’re saying that you play as Abby after she kills Joel so yes you do play the remainder of the game as Abby

20+ minutes


This video repeats a few of the cutscenes in the beginning but at around the 20 minute mark they show the scene were Joel gets killed, the scene where Abby and The Last Airbender are scouting a location in the epilogue and then the cutscene where Abby fukks up Ellie and Dina and spares them.

It seems that the ending is the same that in one, they just change the characters for new customers for 3.

He ain't have a choice, first off it's the fire fly faction so they were likely going to kill him anyway, second off it's really their fault they sent them in there with no weapons themselves. This man just bodied half their faction in there and they thought shyt would be sweet, they SHOULD have killed him then in there
