She lost everyone. The bitter sweetness is that she didnt lose her humanity at the end. Still one of the most tragic characters to grace our lives.

[@philly_sports1558]

Why does Naughty Dog insist on making this girl's life a living nightmare? She never knew her parents, grew up during the apocalypse, never had a real childhood, her best friend and love interest was bitten, she was nearly raped, killed, and eaten by a cannibalistic pedophile, her father figure was brutally murdered in front of her, a lot of her friends died, she lost her girlfriend and her surrogate son, and she lost two fingers and her ability to play the guitar. All of this before she's even turned 20. Ellie deserves to be happy. Seeing all this horrific stuff happen to her just breaks my heart.

[@Peepbrother]

So they can make a part 3 with the she hulk most likely 😂 they basically fucked over all of the good characters from the 1st one for these new trash cans

"I was supposed to die in that hospital! My life would've fucking mattered! But you took that from me!" "If somehow the Lord gave me a second chance at that moment, I'd do it all over again." -Ellie and Joel (The Last of Us Part II) Joel would've done it all over, the *exact* same way. He lost Sarah and couldn't lose Ellie too. Ellie couldn't understand that until the end. Until she saw Lev and Abby in the exact same position. Abby was willing to do anything to save Lev, same as Joel was willing to do anything to save Ellie. And that's when Ellie finally understood Joel's choice to save her over the human race.

[@itube316]

Theoretically, she already has. Apparently, the Ellie we see at the end of the game returning to the house, doesn't have her weapons, and is wearing Dina's luck bracelet. Signifying that she just took the trip to visit that home, those things and to put Joel's memory to rest.

[@cheddaryt7502]

She completely deserved this ending but that's the denial factor that makes it so tragic. She did evil things but we didn't see them as that bad because of our perspective but when we play as abby we then understand why she isn't the good guy. She even had a chance of a better life with Dina and decided to throw it all away because, even knowing that abby spared her and dina's lives, she had to get revenge for joel. When she doesn't kill abby in the end it shows that she has moved past her vengeance and recognised that she is the bad guy but it was too late. She deserved what happened to her, it's all about perspective.

[@cheddaryt7502]

@Harry Paul Yeah but the whole point is that she is breaking the revenge. Plus Ellie lost everything but that doesn't make it all pointless because from what she lost she gained he humanity and her ability to move on from Joel's death. She was able to see and understand Abby's reasoning behind killing Joel and finally after all the wrong she'd done, stop. The story wasn't about revenge or violence being bad. It was about perspective and forgiveness and most of all in the words of Neil Druckmann "Love"

[@q-town_7739]

The ending makes sense cause she turned her back on her family to get revenge

[@Mozartkugel]

500 kills?! Well that depends on the way you play. I didn‘t kill anybody (at least humans and especially dogs) in the game if it wasn’t absolutely necessary to progress. It made the game tougher, but also made the characters feel more rational and realistic. So „my“ Ellie only killed to protect herself and focused her revenge on Abby‘s group of friends. That also made her decisions and actions in the cutscenes much more consistent and therefore much more believable. I never understand how people can play a game this way, letting their characters do things that make no sense character wise. Why would your Ellie be a freaking female Rambo?! That doesn’t make sense at all. Many years ago I showed Uncharted 1 to a class mate and he would enjoy cutscenes that are brimming with mystery, tension and adventure... just to jump around like a drug addicted monkey once the gameplay resumed? Why tf would someone sane do that? Make your character behave rationally by playing rationally! Have more fun that way! It‘s actually pretty simple.

[@arcticm5634]

It's really hard to say what this game felt like for me. Every minute I spent being Ellie or Abby made me feel like I was constantly getting punched in the stomach. The game story looks ordinary, banal, but it is narrated in a way I have never experienced in a videogame. Everything is perfect, the dialogues, the landscapes, the facial expressions.

@Minstrel🎼 hmm not so sure about that, Niel Druckman was vague and subtle about having a 3rd game, it's still up in the air yes, but he did mention that as soon as the game finished they started brainstorming ideas of a 3rd part, it's ND's biggest seller and the game is very popular i don't see why they're not gonna make a sequel. Plus i don't think they would reveal having a 3rd game so early on after part 2, not to mention working on the show itself would take a chunk of Niel's time. I'm interested to see more of Ellie's journey, her story is far from completed and i believe she would somehow find the fireflies again with her family and Tommy also in mind and how their dynamic unravels. Abby is not someone i'm keen on seeing again because i believe we had a closure in her final battle with Ellie. A prequel would work for me if it was a DLC, or maybe more of Ellie and Joel's lives back in Jackson just to give depth to their time there and help us connect with the characters we saw in Jackson.

You know, the last scene in The Last of Us Part II really kills me when Ellie says to Abby: “Go... just take him”. Made me think Ellie was talking about Joel 😔 the more I think about it, the more it kills me.

[@j0rdgubb]

She realized that Abby loved Lev as much as Joel loved her (and after realizing this, she finally forgave Joel)?? I haven't played this game, but I've seen videos and read the plot. I watched the ending scenes (last 1 hour of the game), and cried my eyes out.

[@Apocalypse87]

Ella I've read this argument many times from different people. The problem is that the Lev Abby thing isn't so obvious from Ellie's perspective. Ellie doesn't know what Lev meant to Abby, the arc or this particular part wasn't solid nor explained..Abby and Lev looked like regular survivalists like many others, they don't have the Joel Ellie relationship at all. I was defending the story for weeks, I even started a long argument with my brother defending the ending, but the more I look into it, it doesn't make any sense. The only explanation is that Ellie thinks joel is worthless and doesn't deserve a revenge !!

[@j0rdgubb]

@@Apocalypse87 I'm not trying to start a fight, but I think it's good that we bring our opinions to the table. Here's mine: Ellie loved Joel. She doesn't think he is worthless. Joel is dead, and killing Abby won't bring him back. Joel killed Abby's father, so Abby killed him. Joel was like a dad to Ellie, so ofc she wanted to kill Abby. When she was drowning her, she saw flashback of Joel looking at her. I think he would've wanted her to move on and be happy, and not get into the cycle of revenge, because he loved her like a daughter (and she knew it). Ellie had lost Joel forever, she was heartbroken and wanted revenge, but in the drowning/flashback scene you can see that she kind of gave up. She realized the fact that he won't come back, and she has to move on. Trust me, I would've wanted the satisfaction of Ellie killing Abby. I would've loved to see Joel stay alive. The ending was disappointing and I'm still sad about it. Life isn't fair and it sucks. But we need to imagine how Ellie felt. She went through stages of grief after Joel's death. She was angry and wanted to kill Abby. On the beach she accepted the fact that he was gone. And then she tries to move on.

[@j0rdgubb]

@Harry Paul Yeah it's a shame. The way it ended was wrong, but I was just trying to find "reasons". I enjoyed the story and loved Ellie and Joel together. Getting to know these characters was something special, and when they killed Joel, I was heartbroken. Honestly, I don't remember the last time I cried that much :DD It sounds very stupid, but I have to move on. I hope that Joel is in heaven with Sarah, and Ellie found peace + reunited with Dina and her son. I'm not an "OG fan", I only found out about this whole game series 2 months ago. Watched 3 hours of the first game, then lost my patience and just read the plot for parts 1 and 2. Watched Joel's death, and the last hour of the game + bits here and there. So even though I was emotionally invested in the story, I didn't play the game in 2013, and wait 7 years for a sequel that I had high hopes for. I never actually played the games. The ending devastated me, and I can only imagine what it was like for the hardcore fans.

@@j0rdgubb Don't listen to this guy. There is A LOT of positivity coming out involving this game with great "literary" analyses(very close to literary analyses I have to do at uni) that discard a lot of the arguments that state that this game is badly written. The people who dislike something are always very loud about it, but in all actuality this game is selling extreeeemely well and everyone I know liked it. The game tanked at the first day of its release (people couldn't possibly have finished it by then) and the hate train had already departed because of the leaks. Facts are that it is completely changing, most gamer reviews and videos that are coming out are actually quite positive, which makes me happy since I almost started to feel bad for liking this game, even though I was pretty sure that I know the difference between good and bad writing. Sure it isn't a perfect game but it is pretty damn good and I felt like the ending was beautiful and extremely risky at the same time. i didn't want Abby to die at all and the shot of Ellie sitting in the fog and water alone was just magnificent, at the same time I felt empty because I had come all this way "for nothing" (which ofcourse isn't true cf. Ellie's character development, which is what the game is actually about). I loved it and completely understand the people that didn't like it, BUT it is not bad or dumb writing. It is because Ellie sees the flashback of Joel from the night that she decided to start trying to forgive him that she started trying to forgive and understand Abby as well. Anyways glad you liked it :p

Despite the frustrating story telling and the way it ended, sometimes I see it as a realistic ending. Life is about how you handle losses.

I wish it ended differently but her actions and her will to get revenge is what ultimately formed her ending alone in the last of us 2

This is just perfect. I apologise in advance for writing an entire book here. A lot of people don't seem to understand what the game is about and think that everything Ellie does is ok but hate Abby with all their strength, they're missing the point. On Abby's point of view Joel is the bad guy who took her dad away, you can't simply hate on her for doing what she did to him and think it's ok for Ellie to do the same to Nora, for example or kill a pregnant woman even if it was by accident (and kill Alice which was unacceptable, that part I can not forgive lol). They're both so hurt that they're blinded by anger and they both got consumed by it by getting their revenge, and the cost of that was losing the rest of the people they loved. And be said that if Ellie had drowned Abby she would've taken her away from Lev, the same way Abby took Joel from her. Beautiful game, beautiful editing, just perfect

Aw, thank you so much I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I appreciate your comment it means a lot! ♥️

[@mimibunbun3778]

Tbh I do understand the game and Abby perspective but it's really hard to me to care about her since they showed me her too late and I still feel like Abby didn't understood why revange is bad. I know they try to show that she understands but it doesn't feel like it does. It's really hard for Ellie to kill all those people and I think we all can see that, Ellie is not meant to kill like that just for revange that really fuck her up. But with Abby she doesn't even feel bad for killing she did enjoyed killing someone in front of someone. The only time I saw her caring about something it was with the siblings. But idk maybe it's just me

[@BlehBleh24]

@@mimibunbun3778 sorry in advance again for writing another book here lol. I agree and I think that's when she started to be less selfish yk? When Mel tells her she's a selfish asshole she even cries cause she knows it's true, and I think the siblings were slowly changing that throughout the game. When she's about to kill Dina for example, Lev says her name in a "don't do this" way and she just let them leave. And at the end of the game when they're at the boats she didn't even care to fight Ellie, she actually says that she's not gonna fight her, and it's not because she's weak or anything even because they ended up having a badass fight, but she just doesn't care about any of it anymore, the only thing she cares now is Lev, she lost everyone else and didn't wanna lose him to. She used to be an asshole, but I think at the end of the game she realizes everyone died because of what she did and she didn't want that to happen to Lev too, and same for Ellie, at the last second she sees Joel sitting on the porch peacefully playing his guitar and realizes that killing Abby wasn't worth it, she would kill her and then what? Lev would've been alone and it wouldn't change anything. So yeah, I agree Abby wasn't the best, but I think throughout the game she understands that about her self and didn't want Lev to pay the price for it, like the others did. And by the way, to be honest if someone had killed my dad like that I would have enjoyed killing them too. I'm not saying Joel is wrong, he did what he did to save Ellie, that's ok, but on Abby's point of view he's the bastard who murdered her dad in cold blood, so I kinda get it why she felt relieved when she killed Joel, not saying she's right on doing that, I actually hated her for it, but I understand why she felt good about it. But yeah, every action has consequences...

[@mikemc6911]

the game did that on purpose to ellie to try making you care about abby none of the people ellie killed did she do it for revenge, she killed them in self defense after they each tried to kill her but it still hurt her to actually kill them & nora's never shown to have been killed just shown ellie hit her but told ellie after that were to find abby so cant say she was killed, even the dog gave her no choice but to kill it , they purposely hit the pregnant womans belly during ellie's campaign only showing it at the base playing as abby so it would paint ellie as the bad one between them like they already tried to justify her reason for killing joel by having that random scene with her dad saving the zebra then all of a sudden making look like that cure was 100% guaranteed to work, she shouldve killed abby tho, she's a worse person then any of them she got pleasure out of killing people showing no emotion over it just like a psychopath like it destroyed ellie to kill those people, she shouldve been taking lev with her if she wasnt gonna kill abby after all of that so some kind of karma would hit abby & he would grow up being raised by a better person, like why was ellie punished for what she did lost everything she cared about but abby loses nothing important to her in the end for what she did, ellie is a good person that they destroyed in this game to get people to care anything for abby, they couldnt even give her a good ending for rescuing abby & lev cause abby has no survival skills on her own & got them nearly killed

[@BlehBleh24]

@@mikemc6911 dude Abby did show emotion when killing Joel, anger a lot of anger, which is completely understandable when you see what happened to her dad. And like I said yes, afterwards she didn't seem to care about it, because she is a piece of shit at that part, that's even said at the game by Mel and Abby cries, she knows Mel is right and when Yara tells her she is a good person her reply was "you don't know me", but that changes at the end after everyone she cared about died because of what she did and she's scared of loosing Lev too, he's all she cares about now. I know it seems terrible to kill a 14 year old, bout after 20 years of that living hell I think people would do whatever it takes to find a cure, unless is someone close to you like Ellie was to Joel and when Marlene asks Abby's father "would you do it if it was your daughter?" He didn't answer, cause he knows the answer would be "no" and he probably would have done everything to save her, just like Joel. So I don't think that someone is right or wrong, they're just fighting for different things. Everything in this game depends on what point of view you're looking from, to Joel Abby's father was trying to kill Ellie, to the fireflies he was the savior of the world (literally) to the siblings Abby was the only one that helped them even tho they were seraphites, to Ellie she's a monster, to Ellie Joel was a father, someone who would protect and love her no matter what, to Abby he was a bastard who took her dad away, and the whole game is about that, there is no good guy or bad guy, just people with different points of view. And the idea of Lev staying with Ellie is nonsense; imagine you are Lev, your whole community that you grew up in is trying to kill you cause you're trans, you have to kill your own mother, otherwise she will kill you, your sister is shot to death in front of you and the only person who cares for you and protected you (Abby) is killed by someone (Ellie) and you go with them and accept to be raised by them and you two live happily ever after, c'mon... It's like someone had killed Joel at the first game and Ellie went along with it and accepted to grow up with them, doesn't make any sense

I’m very used to doing character studies for edits and it does kind of mean that I have to be empathetic and compassionate in understanding a characters motivations and reasoning. I’ve always recognised Ellie having a kind of survivors guilt. Which is kind of what I built the edit around. The theme is there throughout both games. Even if the guilt is somewhat secondary in the second game. But yeah I love both games and I like to think that my interpretation of the character and the game is hopefully correct! 😅

An amazing job on telling a painful, yet beautiful, story in roughly 7 minutes. It managed to get to me so well after I've had a while since seeing the end of the second game. And I think that's my favorite thing about all of it - how well it stuck with me. Which... I think wouldn't have been possible without it hitting some very real, important points that I think more people need to really think about. Everyone is flawed. Everyone hurts. And death doesn't care how loved you are, how hated you are, how young you are, how old you are... This time around, while I think it could have benefited from really showing Abby's side earlier on, I think the point was still made: Abby suffered, too. She suffered in as many different ways as she did similar ways, to Ellie. Both major sides of the story got lost in a path focused on revenge and making people hurt as much as they did. Both sides lost even more than they had at the time of setting out to do it. Both sides learned lessons... too painfully late to stop even more horrible things happening as a result of their conscious actions. Both sides gained something in the end: Abby gained a son/little brother figure while Ellie gained a new perspective that can now lead her to follow a path of her choosing; not the Fireflies' path, not Joel's path, not her blinding vengeance's path... just hers. And, while it will never remove the ghosts of her past, she still has a chance to learn from it all. And such is life. We all screw up somewhere but it isn't about that moment in time. It's about digging our way out and where we go after. It's about what we learn from it.
