The Last of Us Part 2 - Ellie and Dina Live on a Farm with Her Baby // All Farm Scenes

[@VideoGameSophistry]

When I first played through here - I was CONVINCED that this was just a dream....that Ellie and Dina had died on the floor and this was Ellie's final moments. I just feel like it's so contrived and forced. Sheep are dope though.

[@redboy09100]

[@fildariusv7045]

No one can predict the journey that is life. Ellie couldn't end the suffering, the nightmares of the death of Joel, she though that killing Abby would bring her peace, but then, after remembering the last great conversation with Joel about forgiveness, she knew the pain would not go if she killed that girl, hell, maybe it would never dissappear. What was the point then? This game is about vengeance, but not the kind that makes you say “OH YEAH”, no, this games shows how Abby and Ellie, consumed by vengeance, lost everything.

[@ChristianJayTheCTrain]

@@michaelgilbert2911 I feel like that's too easy of a story for Naughty Dog to tell. But honestly, I think the game could wrap up the series perfectly because of its ending's ambiguity. Maybe Ellie went after Dina (who probably went back to Jackson since that's the closest thing she has left of a family) to try and make things right. But then again, maybe she'll continue to wander alone until she finds a new life for herself. Afterall, she left her last memento of Joel behind in one last effort to let him go. Maybe she'll avoid Jackson if it reminds her too much of him? Either way, the ending can spin out into whatever you want it to be and I think that makes it perfect.

[@ijhamid]

Agree with setting the scene for last of us 3 but don't think Ellie will die. It will most probably be fireflies would have found a way to make the vaccine without killing her. But of course story will be told in naughty dog style!

[@thelongertheiconofsinisone6570]

[@luccav.432]

That's the lesson the game tries to pass, that vengeance doesn't give you anything, just take from you, Ellie went after vengeance, she lost friends, two fingers, her family, and now, she is alone; Abby went after vengeance, she killed Joel, then Ellie killed her friends, the ones she most loved. If you played Red Dead Redemption 2, you probably remember Arthur saying: "vengeance is a fool's game", this is a lesson to take for life: vengeance gives with one hand (sometimes), and take much more with the other.

@@ala1178 That doesn't even make sense. What did I decide? Nothing. I didn't create the characters or the hostile world they live in. The writer did. Then acts like they live in 1950's Kansas, not a post apocalypse war zone. Why is Jackson fortified, manned by armed guards and have armed patrols working in shifts if you can just live safely on a farm by yourself, like the good old days? He put these characters in a place where they're completely exposed, visible for miles to hordes of runners, which are a thing they introduced at the very beginning of the game (thanks, Days Gone), marauding bands of humans, which they stated are still attacking Jackson and they're out there making a ton of noise to attract things that hunt by sound. It's utterly moronic. The only sane part about it was Dina packing up & leaving for somewhere safe. Since the only reason the farmhouse existed was so they could copy the end of RDR2, when they go after Micah. Tommy is Sadie, Ellie is John, Dina is Abigail, Potato is Jack and Abby is Micah. Their farm even looks like Beecher's Hope. It's about as original as mud and makes as much sense as a Joe Biden speech.

It’s symbolism. It reinforces the idea that this quest of revenge consumed her so much that she lost the last thing that Joel really gave her. Also, with time, she may be able to play again.

mfinite Joel started to see Ellie as the daughter he lost, wouldn’t you do the same if you were in the same situation? On Ellies case, she set out to do one thing and that was revenge on the ones who killed her father figure. Ellie already killed everyone, letting Abby live at the end just make her previous kills worth nothing, just senseless killing. Just like I said in a previous comment, finished what you said out to do. At least her kills will have been meaningful

[@mfinite689]

@@nickpillow5692 Joel still racked up a bunch of dead bodies. Let's not pretend he's a saint here, but because we have a connection with him from the first game we're willing to give him a pass. From Abby's perspective she's just going after the man who was tasked with delivering a girl and went back on his word killing her father and a lot of other people she cared about in the process. Is Abby's motivation for getting revenge on Joel "evil intent" or "justice"? Then is Ellie and Tommy's breaking into a WLF base killing a lot of people that had nothing to do with Joel "evil intent" or "justice"? It comes down to the connection you have with the characters that skews your perspective, even though they all essentially did the same thing.

[@chubchubpotatoes4983]

What I love about the scene with Tommy is that it’s like the angel and the devil on Ellie’s shoulders, Dina (The Angel) represents how she just wants to move on and live a normal life, while Tommy (The Devil) represents part of Joel that she can’t let go, she feels guilty for not being able to save him and being responsible for Jesses death and Tommy’s crippling. Then Dina and Tommy go outside to argue which represents the two sides of Ellie that she doesn’t know which to listen to. Say what you want about this games story but this scene was well done

[@imankhan1999]

yeah...but I heard from somewhere that Joel wouldnt have done what Ellie did...cause he wouldnt have put everybody around him in danger just to get his revenge...he didnt even kill that fedra guy who killed Sarah but who did and probably tortured him aswell was Tommy, so you cant really say that this lust for vengence is a part of Joel...I see it more as just Ellies idea that if she gets her revenge everything somehow goes normal for her...

[@ATMPAUL2FUNNY]

The ending of the last of us 2 is sad and heartbreaking, but HERE IS WHEN THINGS GET VERY INTERESTING. Ellie leaves Dina to hunt down Abby one last time, she’s wearing Joel’s old jacket and she doesn’t have on Dina’s “lucky bracket”. As she lets Abby go and returns back to the farmhouse, Dina and jj and all of their stuff is gone. When you return to the farmhouse, Ellie doesn’t have on Joel’s coat, but she has on Dina’s bracelet and she looks more healed from her physical wounds. So most likely she read her personal journal, which says that Dina and jj are welcomed to live in Jackson, which was a letter by jesses parents if “things haven’t or don’t work out in the farmhouse”. Most likely Dina left a letter for Ellie and she returned back to Jackson. Making up with Dina and tommy and Ellie returns to the farmhouse one last time for old memories. She attempts to play the guitar one last time. Even though she lost two fingers, they have healed but she can’t play the right notes. I believe Ellie cemented and left her last behind her, trying to deal and get over her PTSD from Joel’s death. Ellie leaves the guitar at the farmhouse as a to say, she’s moved on and has to live her life. She I believe Ellie is still with Dina, and at the very end scene, Ellie is seen leaving the farmhouse, for good hopefully and returning back to Jackson.

All they had to do was let her have Dina. It's okay she didn't get her revenge, she got some kind of closure with Abby, but why the f did they take Dina away from her. Literally the only good thing she had and she lost absolutely everything. She should have gone back to the farm with Dina there and she sings her a crooked version of Take on me (she sings that to her in the beginning in a secret cutscene). The song would have fit perfectly. I have a love-hate relationship with this game, because I loved the whole thing, the game was amazing, but that ending... ruined the game for me.

You're missing the lesson of the game. The first game was about love, this was about hate and its consequences. It was about the ultimate price of revenge.

[@Montesama314]

Let's remember Tommy's character backstory. Tommy was a man who saw his own niece die in front of him. He left Joel, HIS OWN BROTHER, for years, because he felt that running around just killing people to survive was wrong and wanted to seek a better cause. He left the Fireflies because he realized their quest was pointless. Years after that, he ended up in Jackson, and tasked himself alongside Maria, to protect hundreds of innocent people. Tommy Miller should therefore be a man who not only understands loss of people close to him, but ALSO understands that wasting time chasing the past and killing because of that past is pointless. So why the hell is Tommy Miller, OF ALL THE FUCKING POSSIBLE PEOPLE, the one who is GUILT-TRIPPING Ellie, HIS ADOPTED NIECE, into wasting her time on a pointless revenge quest? Who wrote this forced bullshit?

They should have change that revenge shit. Maybe in the beginning go with revenge. But after seeing Dina getting hurt because of her she chose not to go through for fear of that. This scene would be perfect for that choice. Then we see Tommy confronting Ellie maybe saying how Abby is hunting her down. Ellie instead of revenge killing decides to stop Abby for fear of the safety of the people she love. It gives the satisfaction for the fans to kill Abby and it gives a reason for Ellie to not have any revenge shit.

[@bartholomewbigby9627]

JJ is the embodiment of both Jesse and Joel. They live on through him. Ellie should have turned her revenge into making that kid have the best life he could ever have. In my opinion, when Abby spared Dina and Ellie, that should have been the end of the revenge story with Abby. There should have been a mutual understanding that both were just trying to avenge the people they love. Instead, Ellie had to mess it up. I understand psychologically why she did it. I understand that she couldn't let go and needed clarity. But she HAD clarity in the baby. JJ was the clarity. And she couldn't see that, so she lost everything. Totally devastating. I hope part 3 includes an epic quest for Ellie to get Dina and the baby back, and then maybe a flash-forward to older JJ and we play as him. I don't know how plausible that is, though. It seems like Ellie inevitably and permanently ruined her own life.

[@sgtmian]

i mean, i think she did see that, but she couldn't sleep because she was haunted. she kept scaring her child because she kept reliving her trauma. i'm sure in her mind killing abby felt like the solution to her problems, which to her, was hurting her family.

Personally, I think it was because when she saw the flashback of Joel at the last second, she probably thought of how he’d feel. She thought that he wouldn’t have wanted her to go through with something this cold-blooded. It also was the fact that even though Abby was the one who took Joel away from Ellie, Ellie realized that she would be doing the same thing to Lev that Abby did you her, and would truly be no better than Abby. Basically, Ellie came to a realization at the very last possible moment that taking revenge on Abby wouldn’t bring an end to her emotional suffering. Only she could do that for herself.

This is how the game should have ended. Sure we don't know what ultimately came of Abby, but that's kind of the point of how meaningless and ultimately unfulfilling revenge is. Ellie has a happy farm life but is haunted by the past and the monster she had become due to her need for revenge, and has no idea that Abby herself is a prisoner suffering as well. The message of revenge being pointless would have been just as poignant without the cliche final fist fight. Would have also made the flashback of Joel and her making amends more powerful as Ellie is now with her wife and child, and then she could have played the guitar for her child in remembrance. Am I looking too much into it? Yes.

What a bad ending.

[@audreysturdahl1153]

You're looking into it more than the writers did which is a problem

[@NomastiAfricanWarlord]

No, I agree this is how the game should have ended. Personally I would have liked it if Ellie had to make a choice between saving Dina or going after Abbie in some dramatic fashion, and she ultimately chooses to saves Dina. That or they could have made it a choice. In choice A, you choose to go after Abbie (Dina dies), you kill her and then you have the tragic ending in which Ellie can't even play the guitar to remember Joel, showing how pointless and self-destructive her quest for revenge was. In Choice B, you save Dina, Abbie gets away, and Ellie is haunted by Joel's death, but ultimately she learns to live a peaceful life with her new family and the ending scene is her playing Joel's song to Dina and their child. I honestly don't understand why the writing decision was made to show how pointless revenge was and yet not have the act of vengeance take place. I mean she already slaughtered several dozen people, if not more, to get to Abbie. She gave up everything to kill Abbie. Then she just decides not do it? That's not really how the human mind operates. Sunken-Cost Fallacy alone would have made her see it through. Part of me is wondering if they get Abbie alive in the hopes she'll be in DLC spin-off or sequel. But given the reception her character has received, I don't see it happening.

People going "Ellie should have killed Abby" then two days later "This is where the game should have ended.."

If Tommy never pulled what he did, this WOULD have been where Ellie's story ended. Amazingly enough, this was the kind of ending Joel wanted most for her, sitting there with the baby talking about how she'd teach him guitar one day and tell stories as they look at the oncoming sunset. This is the ending Joel wanted for her. But it's not the ending Tommy wanted for her because he wanted Joel avenged, completely disregarding what Joel may have wanted because of his own want for vengeance, so he roped Ellie into it again causing her to lose everything.

The theory is Dina and Ellie and JJ are in Jackson happily as a family why? When you went to Santa Barbara you did not have Dina’s bracelet.

Also in the epilogue you have no weapons no gun holster nothing she doesn’t have blood on her side area like she did. When she went into the house nothing was there Ellie didn’t even say anything. Also when you are with Dina at the farm there’s a note on the table from Jesse’s parents saying their more than happy to let them stay at their place in Jackson. Lastly when Ellie returned back in the room with her gutair it was there once she tried to play it she realized she couldn’t anymore this means if she wanted to continue on with her family she would have to leave Joel’s past behind and move on. After she left her gutair and was simply walking back to her family that’s the theory which honestly there’s no way it could be wrong too much evidence that supports it it’s like a secret ending.

Laughed out loud, dude, I need a laugh after being flung into depression after this game. Thanks 👍

Rachel Ross good thing tlou crack videos exist

[@DazzTLOU]

I don’t know if anyone noticed but when Ellie said “I’m the herding master” (10:35) It immediately reminded me of the time she said “I’m the brick master” in TLOU Left Behind when she and Riley were exploring the mall 🙁

[@milssx.o]

thats the point

If Ellie just decided to let go & not go after revenge once again then wouldn't Abby have eventually died a slow death on the pole thing where she was chained up bcos Ellie wouldn't have set her free

[@Chemical_Argentum]

To all of those who are judging Ellie for abandoning her family, let me just tell you that vengence is a powerful emotion, and it can really eat you from inside.

23:12 That's not a song so I played the song on my guitar by looking at her fingers.

[@danielsalvo8022]

[@tywatchesvideos]

[@bandonkadonk]

ellie: *does nothing* creators of this game: yeah let’s kill joel so that ellie goes to find abby and on the meantime kills her close folks and let’s make her not even enjoy it and then finally at the end when she can kill abby, let’s make her NOT kill abby and everyone she loves is gone, yup she deserves that

[@thelegendlink8111]

amen to that

[@consuelohilario4687]

Joel: *does nothing* Creators: Yeah, let's have him tasked to deliver a girl across the country, get him to rack up his kill counts on both humans and infected, meets some friends along the way and kill them off, get so close to developing a vaccine that can potentially eradicate the infection, save millions of lives and make him NOT do that and keep Ellie alive while leaving humanity to struggle on a never ending apocalypse and have him labeled as the man who doomed his own species. Yup, he deserves that.

And take her fingers

this farm looks too clean and safe, that no infected or hostile survivor attacking such place with no high walls or security, I thought this was a dream sequence, but it's actually real.
