In questioning himself he questions the entirety of the Seraphites (proper name) belief system and let's just say that this isn't a clan that has any time for that. These Scars are disavowed, a brother-sister coupling, as the brother was originally a sister but his body and soul said otherwise. It is with the Scars that the game questions convention of what most Triple-A video games aim to unravel in their stories. Abby has more going on than just Wolves and Ellie as she finds herself taking in a few young members of the Scar faction, named aptly by Wolves for the scars on their cheeks. The structure, when put chronologically is, Abby arrives, does her business and leaves, Ellie arrives too late, still murders everyone. Ellie seeks revenge while Abby goes on a redemptive arc she wasn't aware she needed nor we as those who hate her knew would be possible to attain. It is the Wolves which matter to Abby as this is the group her and the band of murder accessories (fellow accessories to murder?) she went to Jackson with throw their lot in with. When you finish with Ellie on Day 3 you've left mountains of bodies whether they are infected, Scars, or Wolves. Days here are reminiscent of seasons in the first game. While Ellie hunts down Abby in what is the video game equivalent to Kill Bill, Abby is aloof to Ellie's presence through to the end of Seattle Day 3 on from her perspective. Those three days, however, are told over again from a different perspective. As said, three days in Seattle, right? Right. The opening hours of The Last of Us Part 2 both before and after the killing have brilliant moments of levity and excellent characters on either side of the antagonist/protagonist coin it beats out many other visually told stories. To dawdle on the open-world would give a false hope that it is the wider part of the game, which it isn't, it is just one of the best parts. Seattle is told in a three-day structure where each day may very well be its own arc. To watch Joel get killed in the way that he was sucked on a personal level, Joel was our guy! This game sells the hatred it wants you to feel so fast that revenge is the only dish that need be served.įrom this, we begin one of the best micro-open-world levels I've seen in a game I was truly disappointed that each day was not its own matched experience.
When we first meet Abby her team is outside of Jackson, unbeknownst to them Abby learns this quickly and fires herself like a bullet to closing out the opening chapters of the game. Through the first couple of hours, the perspective passes from Joel to Ellie to Abby and then back and forth by the last two for the rest of the game. That ending isn't only an ending for Joel and Ellie, it was an ending (also beginning) for the game's second protagonist. As fans, the better half of the 2010s leading into 2020 was spent wondering what came of that ending. We all have a secret that our main protagonist isn't in on but is surely the topic of. At this moment, Tommy assures his brother that he would take what he was told to the grave as we have all been sworn to do, too, because we can't tell Ellie what we know about the last game. The player then has control over Joel through a short, and frankly beautiful, horse ride. Joel Miller is murdered within the first few hours of a game that begins with him telling the final moments of the previous game to his brother Tommy. From herein, spoilers will be cut loose, because to even discuss the experience the beginning hours of the game needs to be discussed.
Hot off the first game it was great to jump in where Part 2 picks up. The Last of Us Part 2 is the most Part 2 thing ever three days before Part 2 was released I finished the first game again, which I had not replayed since the game originally came out and had bought the Remaster in an online swap bundle never really intending to play it. When "Part 2" is added on to a sequel title as opposed to a sequential number many begin to wonder why it would alter the convention of just slapping a number onto the title and giving it a basic label.
