I would be less salty if they decided to end him a bit later during the game to make it less predictable in what direction it is heading. Making it so clear early on, that it's going to be nothing more than just revenge from here on just rubbed me the wrong way.

@@larrythepinhead5591 which is fair, and definitely doesn’t put you with the group I’m thinking of. The game isn’t perfect, I have some things I would have done different, absolutely. To me it made sense as a catalyst because it was built in a way that made sense on the consequences of the first game, and it’s honestly what I thought would happen when I tried to think about what a second game would be. The first one wasn’t happy and didn’t end happy, so I certainly expected more pain from part 2 😂 And it wasn’t revenge the rest of the game, I saw it more as a process of grief and loss. Losing him definitely pulled out anger and disgust, but I liked it. In most stories, characters die in cinematic ways, but he went out quickly, without final words, and it hit different, because it was more realistic. If that makes sense in any video game, I’d expect it from the last of us.

The reason why it's so awkward at the beginning is because of the events that transpired at the end of the first game. This scene takes place shortly after the end of the first game, and you can tell that Ellie is absolutely crestfallen, partly because she was racked with immense survivor's guilt and she desperately wanted to be the cure for this wretched world. So that coupled with the conversation at the end of the first game with Joel must've been on her mind I bet
@TheJrr71

That makes sense. I also think that Ellie didn't believe Joel at the end of part 1, but she was prepared to accept it, because she does care for him and knows that whatever may have happened, Joel acted for her benefit. Add in your idea about survivors guilt and we see how she's struggling to find a way to make their relationship work now they're in Jackson. Edit: Also, I think Joel knows that Ellie didn't believe him, so he's wracked with guilt too! No wonder it was awkward 🤣

First game: Joel to Ellie when they're arguing - "You have no idea what loss is." Second game: Joel singing to Ellie - "If I were to ever lose you, I'd surely lose myself." That is such an important connection to make between the games IMO. As far as why Ellie and Joel's interaction was awkward at the start of your play through is because at the end of TLOU1 Eliie asks Joel "Promise me everything you said about the Fireflys was true." Eliie is incredibly clever and she knew Joel wasn't being truthful as we all did when we went through that moment. Fun stuff to notice: Ellie still has Sam's transformer in her 'home. The dog you pet at 26:49 is Buckley from the first game. And the guy behind the dog playing banjo on the porch is the musician who created the music for the game - Gustavo Santaolalla. Seth, the guy who gave Ellie the steak sandwich and apologized for what he said -- he was one of the guards at the dam in TLOU1 when Joel and Ellie first connect with Tommy. When Dina and Ellie have the snowball fight, the dynamic detail transition the game goes through from close-up high detail facial animations to the snowball fight which lowers the facial details but scales the environmental details all dynamically with no break in transition -- so damn impressive. Other little things. If you hit a tree that has snow on the branches, the snow will react. When Ellie and Dina find shelter at Eugene's they are initially covered in snow, but as you explore the snow on the clothes slowly melts away. Finally - The Jaba Coffee mug is great.

I was spoiled on this major plat point before I played the game, and just knowing what happened was so hard for me that it took nearly 3 years to finally sit down and play the game. I finished last week and haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since. It’s such a powerful story. For me, as sad as I am about Joel, I think the worst thing for me is the effect on Ellie. Joel might have been able to live a fulfilling life in the end for that brief 4 years, but the pain Ellie is going through is what really kills me. I won’t say more than that, but for me it’s always what the character themselves are feeling that influences my emotional response.

Binge watching your playthrough again because I love your emotinoal response to this game. I gotta say though, I was focused on the revenge and rage. I cried like a baby when Joel died, Ellie's struggle to go into the house, smelling his coat. They really captured those moments and I couldn't imagine them any better. I understand why Joel did what he did. Even knowing Ellie was willing to give up her life, Joel had already become attached and saw her as a daughter. He saw people willing to take her and end her life and he was not going to lose another daughter. If I was in his shoes, I would have done the exact same thing. I love people and I love life, but the rest of the world can suffer if it means losing a daughter just to save them. It'd be different if it was your own life, but you're asking someone to be willing to accept losing someone you love just so others can live.

The lack of rage and your immediate mention and appreciation for Joel’s life is very telling that we’re in for a very different reaction and I’m here for it! I do wonder how much of your reaction is also affected by the lack of a big gap in between games.

Yes. A lot of people are flabbergasted at how Joel "just walked into" the situation that ultimately got him killed, citing that he always had that survivor instinct and that paranoid awareness from living hard. But they miss what you - and Eralia - point out - that its been four years, and those have been four years of peace - Jackson is secure, supplied, and full of well-meaning people - a suitable village that it would take to raise any person, any family. You could definitely say he got "soft" in those years, but peace - true peace - is what makes people soft. Man this is why I like reading comments, despite how toxic they can sometimes be. So many things that I'd never notice.

The details start with Ellie's room itself ..like you can see Joel's house through Ellie's house window bcoz she lives in Joel's house backyard. That robot is there above the table which she gave Sam. There is a PlayStation in Ellie's room which you can't shoot you know that's Sony's you gotta respect that. The aim button doesn't allow you to shoot that it will turn dark. There is a photo of Ellie's ex gf Cat above Ellie's bed who made that tattoo on her arm. And Gustavo Santaolalla makes a presence in the game. He is right there with his Banjo when Ellie pet's the dog which is the same dog at Tommy's in the first game... that's why Ellie says hello old timer. I can go on and on with the details....i hope you have found all. That makes the game 100 times more beautiful then it is

can't think of a more perfect person to be playing trough this - you are coming at it with the exact right mindset. You'd be amazed how many 'true fans' stopped playing at that moment and snapped their disc in half. how many death threats Laura Bailey received, how awful a vocal minority were about this. this isn't the only challenge this game throws at you, but A+ for how you dealt with the first major hurdle :) I'm excited to see how you react to the rest of the story.

I knew Eralia's empathy would kick in for this game. She gets why Ellie would go out to Seattle - why nothing Tommy or anyone else said or did would matter. She also gets why such a thing could happen to Joel, why the people who tracked him down would do so. Its the theme of the game. It's not "revenge" as so many people have thought it to be. Its about being able to say "i get it" to the things that every single character does - to have every character's actions and motivations be understandable - and yet for those same characters to all still be fucking miserable, due to these actions. That, miserably, is sometimes just how life is. ...not often, thankfully. This year (2023 as of this writing), a new batch of people have picked up thse games to play, as shown by channels like Eralia. It's been long enoguh since these games came out that its a new "generation" of players of these games - and i've noticed that they all seem to get it. None of the (appropriate, ironically) hatred that pervaded the people who played this game when it first released, or the year or so thereafter. It's kinda nice.

You asking why they did it is a great question. Hold onto that question while you play through this. This story is divisive and I think a lot of it is because half the people wanted to know why this happened and the other half didn't care. Wanting to know why will keep you invested in this difficult, but fascinating story.
