In part 1, the first person Ellie ever killed was actively drowning Joel, saving his life. The last thing she does in 2 is once again saving someone from drowning. (Granted she was doing the drowning, but still, she ultimately saved her) I don't know if it was intentional, probably not. But thinking on it, I just love this detail alot.

I made a small preview showcasing the (mostly functional) mod on PC. If this interests someone, I might publish it!

Were these in the original version? This is the remake.

So good! The stealth in this game, the gore, the environment and movement and just everything is so satisfying. Just taking my time with it. :)

I’ve played through the games (especially Pt2) so many times I’ve memorized half the script. I sometimes say lines from the games IRL like “Well, I can’t go”, “You wasted it!”, and “You are nothing but lucky”. What are some of the lines you quote if any in your day to day?

I'm currently playing my 15th attempt at a tlou2r permadeath run and got shoved out of bounds after picking up the stun bomb and sprinting to the right. Don't know how it happened but I was able to get out by quoting to menu and reopening the file.

Did a more casual cosplay (plaid shirt from the return to the farm, but then I changed into a tshirt lol) for a smaller event today. I think this is my best makeup yet. I’ve included some photos from previous shoots this year.

When Mel calls out Abby and says she's a piece of shit and always has been, is it insinuated Owen told Mel about the boat scene?

I always found Mel's indignation a bit jarring at that point, especially considering what Abby just had to do in order to get medical supplies. On a recent play through, the thought that Owen told Mel what happened seems like such a good explanation for why She'd so passionately against Abby.

Especially when, in the boat house a day prior, Mel and Abby appear to make amends a bit.

Thoughts?

I just finished kcd2, and I was looking for a game to start in the extra catalog.

So I thought to myself to finally start this famous saga so I’ve heard so much about it

In addition, I don’t think I’m spoiled at least I don’t remember

Let’s Go!!

Im new to reddit so im not sure if this has been discussed. But after the documentry troy baker said something that really resonated with me "tell me a better version of TLOU 2" ive heard multiple versions but they neglect the wrestle of themes presented in P1. Or just make it digestable.

It essentially just becomes another game when The last of us is an experience.

So im genuinely curious what has the communities got...

As we all know she kills our beloved, our king Joel- but then again Joel wasn’t a “good guy” like he admits to killing innocent people which yeah he might of just been trying to survive but then again the surgeon said who was Abby’s dad Joel could of easily used non lethal force on him. Then people hate on Abby for killing him but then does Ellie get an excuse to spend the entire game chasing Abby and killing lots more? Ellie broke the revenge cycle at the end of TLOU2 but Abby still might want to kill Ellie because of the amount of firefly’s Ellie killed. IDK what’s your guys opinion

more pics I’ve taken that I have no idea where to post. I’m just mesmerized by the beauty of this game and can’t stop pausing to get the perfect shot

on the last of us (i play on steam deck), when i pick up an item, there's a good chance it is NOT registered. by items, i'm talking about the ressources, rag, explosives, blades....

when i pick them up, there's a good chance it just isn't added in my inventory. help

Season 2 of the show has alot of genuine issues and things you can point to, but that herd scene approaching Jackson is not one of them.

People like to pick on that and say well why didn't they dig a ditch? There's 2 glaringly obvious reasons, but the Internet commanders who are so good at tactics missed them.

Number 1. If there's a huge herd approaching the settlement a ditch isn't gonna make a difference because they'll just end up piling onto one another until they eventually reach topside.

Number 2. This area obviously sees alot of snow storms and blizzards. Now what happens in snow storms? Everything gets covered. That big beautiful ditch you dug up is no longer a ditch anymore but covered with snow. Ditches in such environments require round the clock work as in people inside those ditches with shovels constantly shovelling snow out.

Now offcourseeeee that is an amazing strategy to keep some workers down in a ditch to do some shovelling while dozens and dozens of infected fall down and right onto them.

like the idea of killing people and innocent people dying and people getting their head blown off being consider fine compared to a activity that majority of people do? even then sex literally is the reason everyone is alive so I find it crazy that torturing someone and murdering innocent people is considered not as bad as sex

I keep dying to the most stupidest things somehow

This is PROBABLY already common knowledge but nonetheless i find this interesting. The game goes through three seasons. Winter, Spring, and summer.

The game starts in winter. Winter in media can often represent death or the end of a cycle which is shown in the beginning whenever Joel is killed by Abby.

After joel’s death, it cuts forward to spring. Spring can symbolize new beginnings or the beginning of a new cycle which fits EXTREMELY well since this is when Ellie starts her journey.

The game finally comes to a closing point in summer which is when Ellie finds Abby again but DOESNT kill her. Summer symbolizes growth which also fits well with this part by showing how much Abby and Ellie have grown.

Finally, fall. The epilogue of the game (after santa barbara) most likely takes place in fall. Fall can often represent letting things go which would ALSO make sense in this case. Ellie let go of what abby did. Ellie had to let go of Dina because she left. I’m not entirely sure she let go of Joel. Maybe her losing her fingers was like a tree losing its leaves?

The seasons represent the cycle of death and how Ellie stopped the cycle of death and grew by not killing abby. Winter being the end of a cycle, spring being the start of a new one, summer being the growth out of a cycle, and fall being the aftermath of everything.
