The Last of Us Part II (PS4, June 19, 2020) Video Game • Page 66

Yep! So cool they actually made it an actual scene.

 

I’ve played the game twice and I think I’ve missed that truck both times haha

 

damn

 

I don’t love Druckman saying the cure definitely would have worked. I get why it doesn’t really change anything but it feels like yet another choice of the past two months to slowly but surely remove as much subtlty from this story as possible.

 

I always just assumed it would have worked. Not based on any knowledge of how vaccines work or anything. Just the way that recording Ellie hears says the only person who could have done it was now dead.

 

which is already quite the accomplishment

 

I always assumed there was a chance it would have worked, and that most importantly in the moment Joel believed that himself. I guess I just feel like there are enough stakes in that already that I don’t need the fully binary “1 girl vs the world” choice for it to hit really hard. I also like the nuance of the fireflies more or less being the good guys but willing to kill a 14 year old on (only) the chance it could save the world. Feels more true to the world he created if both them and Joel are kind of good and also kind of bad, even in the singular situation of the hospital.

 

Abby at the theater

 

I mean, I feel like anybody that doesn’t know the game would assume Abby has got to be back in the finale in some way.

 

It is absolutely a spoiler lol. I just saw it, it's the "I let you live and you wasted it" line

 

I haven’t seen the clip. But does that spoil anything? Thinking Abby wouldn’t show up would be odd. And that line doesn’t actually reveal anything we didn’t already know. It’s technically a spoiler for show people as they don’t know for sure Abby is back. But from an actual perspective of, does that clip actually reveal anything beyond a character’s appearance? Which makes sense to appear. Like, again, spoiler in the way we would not be discussing this in the show thread, but sounds like a big nothing burger if someone sees that clip.

edit: like, Ellie’s goal has been to find Abby. Of course she’s in the finale and at a location Ellie is.

 

What Abby does just before that line will definitely be a spoiler. I assume the leak shows that too?

 

I only saw a compilation of clips so idk how much leaked, what I saw was just her holding a gun and then saying that line.

 

Oh I just saw the person that made the video said they accidentally got the episode early through Apple TV's season pass thing so it's possible the whole thing out there.

 

Clip I saw was a side by side comparison to the game, of when Abby has a gun to Tommy's head (tho you can barely tell it's him) and Ellie has her hands up

 

Yeah I didn't see that part

 

The tv show ducking sucks conpared to the game. The actress they chose for Ellie can kick rocks down a river for all I care. They suck

 

Lol

 

Love to be a normal guy

 

You can’t even say fucking and post that shit?? Get out of here lol

 

Very insightful.
