The Last of Us Part II Spoiler Discussion Thread

I’m sorry I can care less about Abby

fukk her
fukk her story
fukk her father
and fukk everybody riding with her

I’d rather play a clicker - make a bunch of noises and walk around in circles then play that uninteresting, generic bytch

BTW
if they come out with part 3 unless it’s a prequel that revolves around the characters of Henry and Sam they won’t be seeing my money

I always said way before we knew they were making a sequel that this would of been a great idea for DLC for the first game after Left Behind, Nothing too crazy in terms of length, maybe 6 hours worth split into a few segments over the 10 years after the outbreak...Joel/Tommy during the initial stages, Joel/Tommy traveling as raiders, Tommy leaving for the fireflies

I thought the Left Behind DLC was going to be this and was low key disappointed when it was announced it was going to be more of Ellie, I ended up liking that one anyway.

A lot (not all) of people are truly lost because ND didn't spoon feed them everything, even though most everything is spelled out. I honestly think some people rushed through the game too fast just to have a take on it, and didn't process everything. So many points are being thrown out that are being directly refuted by the game itself.

I fw hard8, but I watched his review, and he was saying he hated the 10 hr Yara and Lev "side mission", because he just wanted to get back to the theater, while discussing so many character traits for Abby he wouldn't have gotten without that section.

I hated that Troy Baker put out his statement, because it almost said Joel was dying from jump, but I really feel like it applies. I was put off by the leaks, but in the context of the story it made sense. But I feel like too many people were stuck on Joel from the beginning of the game, and it tainted their views on the rest of the game. Ironically they were Ellie through most of the game themselves At this point if somebody still tries to call Joel the hero, I gotta take em with a grain of salt and I'm still pissed off about that scene, because that's my guy, but actions have consequences

Exactly. I don't like Abby....but its a logical fallacy to say Ellie deserves vengeance but Abby doesn't.

Btw, do we know anything abot the Rattlers besides them being demonic as fukk? I read one letter in SB from 1 dude that wasn't going to let them take him back. And that was it. Was there more letter I missed?

Because all I know is that they take people prisoners and eventually leave them hanging on a beach to die

I'm fine if that's everything we are supposed to know, but still curious if there's more.

I didn't get much, even the notes were from people escaping and shyt. I'm pretty sure they were just bandits. I approached most encounters stealth first, but I finally went guerrilla warfare on those bytches. Cause maximum carnage then dip out until they lose me. Stuns, trap bombs, molotovs, incendiary shotties, and melee. The last one begged for mercy after I let her go head up her melee weapon vs. my knife When you hear them get folded as soon as the prisoners get out "RUN "

Yeah by that point you know it's the last fight so fukk saving resources and just go all out.

Making people explode with arrows

I didn't use/craft those near enough the next playthrough with all upgrades

I don’t understand people saying Joel wouldn’t have gotten caught by Abby and her friends. Joel is older and has been playing guitars in Jackson for a few years. He’s been removed from the brutality of the outside world, and has gotten accustomed to basically living in luxury. Him saving Abby is consistent with his character’s personality. Joel wasn’t just going to let a young woman get eaten alive and not help. If you think he would, then Joel isn’t the sweetheart you think he is then. Jackson also takes in stragglers. Not to mention it basically happened on the fly. Tommy and Joel ran into a horde, so did Abby. They both find each other, and at that point it’s all about survival and making it out, by the time everything calms down Abby and her crew realize who really is in front of them and do what they had to do. It’s not completely improbable IMO.

You literally get a flashback at the end showing you that Ellie and Joel were on good terms/mending their relationship by the time he dies. That’s one of the motivating triggers for Ellie’s reckless rage. Like even in first hour of the game, Ellie tells Dina she’s going to invite Joel to watch “Curtis and Viper 2” the night of the day he gets offed

I know it’s a meme, but shows nikkas don’t know what the fukk they’re talking about

Yea it would have been better focusing on Ellie. All that loss can't even play the guitar anymore, her last connection to Joel

Let me preface this by saying i haven't played the game but "watched" it so take what i say with a giant grain of salt.

I think the two main points that don't make sense are Joel being careless and dying as a result. Him dying is cool but they basically caught him slipping which is not consistent with the character.

The second part is the ending of course where she went through all of the journey killing many on her watly and in a flash decides not to kill abby. I understand she was broken and fukked up by the end but thos is over the top. I don't see a person or character not going through with it. She should have given up along the way. This part should have been a choice. Or they should have found a better reason for ellie not to kill abby.

Joel made similar mistakes in part 1 . He trusted Henry and Sam without really knowing them ...they could have easily killed Joel and Elly.

On another note, Marlene is the only good looking chick in this game
