Joel literally sacrificed the world to protect Ellie it’s honestly really sad and hurtful how she treats him when all he does is try to love and protect her
Ellie's behaviour is genuine always, thats the best thing about her character. As soon as she reacts in a angry manner, she instantly realised she shouldn't have made the personal thing going on between them public and later goes to talk to him to share her reasons for the reaction she did. Beautiful character so genuine and honest in her expression.
Jesse: Okay, let me give you a recap. You kissed Dina Ellie: She kissed me. Jesse: Which triggered Seth to call you a homophobic slur. Ellie: Yep. Jesse: You were about to fight him, and then Joel decked him. Ellie: More like a push. Jesse: And then you mad at Joel. That part confused me. Ellie: It was a strange night, man.

Now the Fireflies were awful to those 2 but what Joel did was equally awful. • he LIED to her about them stopping to look for a cure, and SWORE ON THAT LIE • years later, she discovered that lie for herself, which is arguably worse than it Joel just fessed up. • she made it very clear that she and Joel were done, and that she doesn’t need him to protect her anymore.

@@Darksyne I don't think you know what horrible is you're just biased that is exactly what good writing is their relationship is complex and Joel doesn't get to spend an eternity alive and explain everything he loves about Ellie and get back on the best terms he gets taken away before he can do those things like real people do That's why ellie was so mad that she lost joel after treating him that way until she remebers that she tried to get on good terms before died having the conversation on the porch In this scene ellies says she's doesn't know if she can forgive the firefly situation but she want to try, joel realizing he has another chance to be a father to ellie sheds a tear and nearly cries Joel is shown be a better person in general and better dad to ellie and is shown to have zero regrets even if it hurt ellies and his relationship he'd kill all those people again just to keep her safe They also showed us him singing playing guitar he taught ellie to like he said But ohhhh no a 57 year old man got to see his daughter figure in his final moments after saving a young womans life An no it wasn't poorly done joel didn't gib his name until Tommy had already said they're names to Abby Abby had saved Tommy's life Tommy and joel were in a blizzard with nowhere to go except the nearest safe building which happens to be abbys ski lodge area Within 30 seconds joel was suspicous of the group
@@johnmarston1419 literally everyone else doesn't agree. Joel deserved better than to be tossed aside like garbage. Remember this is a video game meant to entertain people and you can't do that if you kill off a beloved character because the developers want to push an agenda with a different companion for Ellie. All for an ending with no payoff.
@@Darksyne agenda?

@@johnmarston1419 it wasn't the fact that Joel died, it was how he died. They did a horrible job at killing off that character and it pissed off nearly the entire fan base. You defending it is just cope my guy.
I like how Ellie thinks that Joel did that to “protect” her. It wasn’t about that, he knows she can protect herself. Remember the rifle scene in the first game? Cuz the writers don’t. Some ass clown just called his daughter a dyke. Notice he didn’t intervene until then. Almost like he was giving her space until he had enough. Ellie would understand this, why isn’t this used as a way to heal their broken relationship. Part 2 could’ve been a story about forgiveness and acceptance. It could’ve been just as beautiful as the first game.
I really liked your theory. Maybe she does start to realise it at the end of the short as her eyes look like they cast some doubt on her outburst? Especially in a later scene which is meant to be after she attempts to salvage a broken relationship. But imo feels guilty she was t able to repair it to what it was. What do you think?
The irony is this absolutely was used to mend their broken relationship. Literally the last flashback scene in the game is a continuation of this night where Ellie goes to talk to Joel and try in her own way to learn how to forigive him.
I would have liked to have a similar story but without the revenge theme, like maybe Joel gets bit and Ellie has to figure out how to heal from that wound just as Joel did when his daughter died. I feel like the only thing Neil cares about when he wrote this was shock value. He put the shock of the story over the character and themes. It would have worked well in a stand alone tittle but this is a sequel, you just can't do this shit
These scene hurts when you realized the regret Ellie feel because they had this argument before Joel died and Ellie's stuck regreting not forgiving Joel for what he had done
Dude really cares that the kids don't see two people of the same sex kiss while in an apocalypse where they constantly see corpses, fungus zombies and death.
Dina: Yeah like you're setting such a great example! 😂 I loved Dina's comebacks her and Ellie had such amazing chemistry it's a shame it was so short lived for reasons relating to the story and so forth.
And this is one of those scenes that really upsets me why people have the audacity to respond to people who feel saddened of Joel’s death by saying, “he’s not real” or “it’s a video game” like I understand you have no empathy but this portrayal this acting, this story, really immerses you to imagine that this character could be your father or someone you love, anybody or even imagine he’s real.. scenes like this seeing the way Ellie treat Joel really opens your eyes to how important it is to love the people you care about, and not treat them like this.
And the audacity to say that saving Ellie is selfish and the worst sin ever? But it’s A FICTION GAME! The outcome does affect us. So why should we care about a cure?? We’re not in the Story 😂
Remember y'all: this may be you talking to any of your parents. Sometimes they do thinks we don't like or understand and then we we get mad at them, but nobody knows what the future is saving for us. You never know when you are talking to your parents for the last time
@@dmaxwell910901 hey if you can’t get a game to sell with a gay protagonist just start it with a straight one and then kill him and force everyone to play as a gay protagonist in the sequel😂 I’m not hating on it, I love Ellie. But I hate that they killed Joel for no reason beyond having more focus on Ellie
I mean she showed up to his place shortly after. She still didn’t apologize nor did she forgive him. She said she could try but that’s it. Makes her pretty unlikable in my opinion
Anyone who actually paid attention to part 1 would know exactly why she's mad. "Everything we've done can't be for nothing." Lost Tess, Lost Sam and Henry, Murdered Marlene, Broke Tess's promise, Lied to Ellie, and doomed the world selfishly. Ellie wanted to save the world because what happened to Riley (her first love), what happened to Sam (her new friend) and Henry. And what happened to Tess and Marlene (the closest person to her at the time).
“Kids die all the time”, remember? And so do Adults. So realistic she couldn’t stop death no matter the cure. She was going throw her life away without living the rest of it. Humans can’t save the world. Look at all deaths that have occurred this year, no vaccine is going to prevent a car accident or a plane/ helicopter crash or stabbings and shootings.
I get that, which is why Tlou 2 has that flashback of Joel confessing what happened in the hospital, but I feel like this game could’ve been so much better and with Ellie trying to forgive Joel. Remember when in one of the trailers, with Ellie dealing with WLF Joel appears? But in the final they replaced Joel with Jesse. The thing is that Tlou 2 could’ve had a good story with its concept and all, but it was poorly executed
The game socks balls, they killed off Joel and gave us an annoying brat built on the back of anger, envy, pettiness, over indulging lesbian, non logical, anti climatic asf and two bad endings. Major disappointment not even top 200
People justify everything which is the opposite of what the developers/writers wanted. I don’t know how you can justify Joel murdering a hospital full of innocent people and the only doctor who could find the cure, which ruined Abby’s life. We were pretty much told that there would’ve for sure been a cure. Like if Joel is perfectly justified then how is Abby a villain when she was avenging her father ? If Joel did the same thing he’d get a pass
@@kyra2419”innocent people” bruh did you even play the game? The fireflies are straight up terrorists that blow up a building in a populated safe zone within the first hour of the game and they were gonna kill a child and backstab Joel because their vet (not even a real doctor) thought he could make a vaccine for a fungal infection (which is impossible) with 20+ year old equipment
This was the one game that felt like a chore to complete rather than the first one. She could have said something better than that to the person who taught and kept her alive as a little girl.
So I know a lot of people find it annoying that Ellie is holding a grudge against Joel, but you all have to think of it from her stand point in the story not just as a game, they're all living in a zombie apocalypse where hundreds of thousands of families and friends were killed and then turned to kill more, Ellie finding out that she could've been the cure for saving the entire world, puts a lot of shock into you, especially when because of what Joel did just left more people to suffer and die, even though I do accept it for what Joel did as he lost his daughter and didn't want to lose another, when it comes to a story driven game, please think of how the person feels in the situation, not treat it like just a game

@@MightySoup234 I think that’s why she took his death so hardly. She struggled to forgive herself for treating Joel that way and not being able to forgive him sooner.
@@MightySoup234 I don’t think you fully understand just what Joel did to her
• he escorted her 3/4ths of the country to find the Fireflies because they were on a mission to save the world.
• he didn’t give her a choice on if she wanted to do the surgery, he stripped that from her. Now the Fireflies were awful to those 2 but what Joel did was equally awful.
• he LIED to her about them stopping to look for a cure, and SWORE ON THAT LIE
• years later, she discovered that lie for herself, which is arguably worse than it Joel just fessed up.
• she made it very clear that she and Joel were done, and that she doesn’t need him to protect her anymore.
Which is completely hypocritical of Ellie.

This one scene perfectly explains everything wrong with this game. Poor Joel.
@@cocopus its unnecessary for them to write Ellie as an unlikeable jerk towards Joel right before they kill him off barely an hour into the game. Horrible writing, horrible plot, completely destroyed everything the first game built up with absolutely no payoff at the end.
@@Darksyne I don't think you know what horrible is you're just biased that is exactly what good writing is their relationship is complex and Joel doesn't get to spend an eternity alive and explain everything he loves about Ellie and get back on the best terms he gets taken away before he can do those things like real people do
That's why ellie was so mad that she lost joel after treating him that way until she remebers that she tried to get on good terms before died having the conversation on the porch
In this scene ellies says she's doesn't know if she can forgive the firefly situation but she want to try, joel realizing he has another chance to be a father to ellie sheds a tear and nearly cries
Joel is shown be a better person in general and better dad to ellie and is shown to have zero regrets even if it hurt ellies and his relationship he'd kill all those people again just to keep her safe
They also showed us him singing playing guitar he taught ellie to like he said
But ohhhh no a 57 year old man got to see his daughter figure in his final moments after saving a young womans life

@@johnmarston1419 literally everyone else doesn't agree. Joel deserved better than to be tossed aside like garbage. Remember this is a video game meant to entertain people and you can't do that if you kill off a beloved character because the developers want to push an agenda with a different companion for Ellie. All for an ending with no payoff.
@@Darksyne agenda? I think you're the one with an agenda it was bound to happen one day
And also entertainment no media is an artwork art evokes emotion joels death amels angry so angry that you'll ignore things you disagree with and act like the whole thing is bad for reason you can't be specific about

Not all media is supposed to pander to what you want
@@johnmarston1419 it wasn't the fact that Joel died, it was how he died. They did a horrible job at killing off that character and it pissed off nearly the entire fan base. You defending it is just cope my guy.
I love how maria doesn't intervene until Joel gets in the middle cuz she knows that Joel will probably beat him to death
One swing from Joel and Seth will meet his creator lol
they did Joel so dirty in this game bro
Ellie need to get herself together.
The look on Ellie’s face after Joel walked away was like I should’ve talked to my dad like that
I like how Ellie thinks that Joel did that to “protect” her. It wasn’t about that, he knows she can protect herself. Remember the rifle scene in the first game? Cuz the writers don’t. Some ass clown just called his daughter a dyke. Notice he didn’t intervene until then. Almost like he was giving her space until he had enough. Ellie would understand this, why isn’t this used as a way to heal their broken relationship. Part 2 could’ve been a story about forgiveness and acceptance. It could’ve been just as beautiful as the first game.
I really liked your theory. Maybe she does start to realise it at the end of the short as her eyes look like they cast some doubt on her outburst? Especially in a later scene which is meant to be after she attempts to salvage a broken relationship. But imo feels guilty she was t able to repair it to what it was. What do you think?
I agree. They did not do a good job telling a good story in the second one. It feels like they tried to make a point about revenge but it fell short.
The irony is this absolutely was used to mend their broken relationship. Literally the last flashback scene in the game is a continuation of this night where Ellie goes to talk to Joel and try in her own way to learn how to forigive him.
I would have liked to have a similar story but without the revenge theme, like maybe Joel gets bit and Ellie has to figure out how to heal from that wound just as Joel did when his daughter died. I feel like the only thing Neil cares about when he wrote this was shock value. He put the shock of the story over the character and themes. It would have worked well in a stand alone tittle but this is a sequel, you just can't do this shit
I know right 😢

I can’t imagine the guilt Ellie feels after the way she treated him. It was definitely warranted, but Joel lived his last couple of years so lonely.
I love this moment so much. It hurts, but you can see from Ellie’s face after… she knew she was outta pocket
The fact that Ellie barely knew all the stuff he did until AFTER he died
ELLIE you're being ungrateful, Joel did everything for you and that's how you reciprocate

The pain in Joel’s eyes
And this is one of those scenes that really upsets me why people have the audacity to respond to people who feel saddened of Joel’s death by saying, “he’s not real” or “it’s a video game” like I understand you have no empathy but this portrayal this acting, this story, really immerses you to imagine that this character could be your father or someone you love, anybody or even imagine he’s real.. scenes like this seeing the way Ellie treat Joel really opens your eyes to how important it is to love the people you care about, and not treat them like this.
And the audacity to say that saving Ellie is selfish and the worst sin ever? But it’s A FICTION GAME! The outcome does affect us. So why should we care about a cure?? We’re not in the Story 😂
Remember y'all: this may be you talking to any of your parents. Sometimes they do thinks we don't like or understand and then we we get mad at them, but nobody knows what the future is saving for us. You never know when you are talking to your parents for the last time

He was in double danger tommy was there too.
When man says right, you know he hurting.
Anyone who actually paid attention to part 1 would know exactly why she's mad.
"Everything we've done can't be for nothing."
Lost Tess, Lost Sam and Henry, Murdered Marlene, Broke Tess's promise, Lied to Ellie, and doomed the world selfishly.
Ellie wanted to save the world because what happened to Riley (her first love), what happened to Sam (her new friend) and Henry. And what happened to Tess and Marlene (the closest person to her at the time).
“Kids die all the time”, remember? And so do Adults. So realistic she couldn’t stop death no matter the cure. She was going throw her life away without living the rest of it. Humans can’t save the world. Look at all deaths that have occurred this year, no vaccine is going to prevent a car accident or a plane/ helicopter crash or stabbings and shootings.
I get that, which is why Tlou 2 has that flashback of Joel confessing what happened in the hospital, but I feel like this game could’ve been so much better and with Ellie trying to forgive Joel. Remember when in one of the trailers, with Ellie dealing with WLF Joel appears? But in the final they replaced Joel with Jesse. The thing is that Tlou 2 could’ve had a good story with its concept and all, but it was poorly executed
Poor Joel, want to hug him 😢.

People justify everything which is the opposite of what the developers/writers wanted. I don’t know how you can justify Joel murdering a hospital full of innocent people and the only doctor who could find the cure, which ruined Abby’s life. We were pretty much told that there would’ve for sure been a cure. Like if Joel is perfectly justified then how is Abby a villain when she was avenging her father ?

Seeing this still hurts :( such a roller coaster story but beautifully told .
So I know a lot of people find it annoying that Ellie is holding a grudge against Joel, but you all have to think of it from her stand point in the story not just as a game, they're all living in a zombie apocalypse where hundreds of thousands of families and friends were killed and then turned to kill more, Ellie finding out that she could've been the cure for saving the entire world, puts a lot of shock into you, especially when because of what Joel did just left more people to suffer and die, even though I do accept it for what Joel did as he lost his daughter and didn't want to lose another, when it comes to a story driven game, please think of how the person feels in the situation, not treat it like just a game
