  • After a winding road, we finally reached Part II. Part I is definitely a game that will stick with me forever, and I'm so excited to start this next blind journey with you all. I have no idea what lies in store.
    Thank you for watching!

      Prepare yourself for an insanely emotional, depressing, soul crushing experience.
      Honestly, when you see the ending credits for this game, you are not fulfilled, you are not satisfied, you are only destroyed and yet somehow still (for me anyways) you walk away feeling like you just played one of the greatest games ever made.

    @jaysundae ปีที่แล้ว +309

    The reason why it's so awkward at the beginning is because of the events that transpired at the end of the first game. This scene takes place shortly after the end of the first game, and you can tell that Ellie is absolutely crestfallen, partly because she was racked with immense survivor's guilt and she desperately wanted to be the cure for this wretched world. So that coupled with the conversation at the end of the first game with Joel must've been on her mind I bet

    • @TheJrr71
      @TheJrr71 ปีที่แล้ว +39

      That makes sense. I also think that Ellie didn't believe Joel at the end of part 1, but she was prepared to accept it, because she does care for him and knows that whatever may have happened, Joel acted for her benefit. Add in your idea about survivors guilt and we see how she's struggling to find a way to make their relationship work now they're in Jackson.
      Edit: Also, I think Joel knows that Ellie didn't believe him, so he's wracked with guilt too! No wonder it was awkward 🤣

I would be less salty if they decided to end him a bit later during the game to make it less predictable in what direction it is heading. Making it so clear early on, that it's going to be nothing more than just revenge from here on just rubbed me the wrong way.

      To me it made sense as a catalyst because it was built in a way that made sense on the consequences of the first game, and it’s honestly what I thought would happen when I tried to think about what a second game would be. The first one wasn’t happy and didn’t end happy, so I certainly expected more pain from part 2 😂
      And it wasn’t revenge the rest of the game, I saw it more as a process of grief and loss. Losing him definitely pulled out anger and disgust, but I liked it. In most stories, characters die in cinematic ways, but he went out quickly, without final words, and it hit different, because it was more realistic. If that makes sense in any video game, I’d expect it from the last of us.

    I was spoiled on this major plat point before I played the game, and just knowing what happened was so hard for me that it took nearly 3 years to finally sit down and play the game. I finished last week and haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since. It’s such a powerful story. For me, as sad as I am about Joel, I think the worst thing for me is the effect on Ellie. Joel might have been able to live a fulfilling life in the end for that brief 4 years, but the pain Ellie is going through is what really kills me. I won’t say more than that, but for me it’s always what the character themselves are feeling that influences my emotional response.

  • @Kronx1970

    First game: Joel to Ellie when they're arguing - "You have no idea what loss is."
    Second game: Joel singing to Ellie - "If I were to ever lose you, I'd surely lose myself."
    That is such an important connection to make between the games IMO. As far as why Ellie and Joel's interaction was awkward at the start of your play through is because at the end of TLOU1 Eliie asks Joel "Promise me everything you said about the Fireflys was true." Eliie is incredibly clever and she knew Joel wasn't being truthful as we all did when we went through that moment.
    Fun stuff to notice: Ellie still has Sam's transformer in her 'home. The dog you pet at 26:49 is Buckley from the first game. And the guy behind the dog playing banjo on the porch is the musician who created the music for the game - Gustavo Santaolalla. Seth, the guy who gave Ellie the steak sandwich and apologized for what he said -- he was one of the guards at the dam in TLOU1 when Joel and Ellie first connect with Tommy.
    When Dina and Ellie have the snowball fight, the dynamic detail transition the game goes through from close-up high detail facial animations to the snowball fight which lowers the facial details but scales the environmental details all dynamically with no break in transition -- so damn impressive. Other little things. If you hit a tree that has snow on the branches, the snow will react. When Ellie and Dina find shelter at Eugene's they are initially covered in snow, but as you explore the snow on the clothes slowly melts away.
    Finally - The Jaba Coffee mug is great.

    Binge watching your playthrough again because I love your emotinoal response to this game. I gotta say though, I was focused on the revenge and rage. I cried like a baby when Joel died, Ellie's struggle to go into the house, smelling his coat. They really captured those moments and I couldn't imagine them any better. I understand why Joel did what he did. Even knowing Ellie was willing to give up her life, Joel had already become attached and saw her as a daughter. He saw people willing to take her and end her life and he was not going to lose another daughter. If I was in his shoes, I would have done the exact same thing. I love people and I love life, but the rest of the world can suffer if it means losing a daughter just to save them. It'd be different if it was your own life, but you're asking someone to be willing to accept losing someone you love just so others can live.

      2. Give it a chance because a lot of people have been saying it's good
      3. It's actually okay to feel angry because you've spent so much time with Joel. It's about how you process that anger (5 stages of grief)
      4. Disrespectful in what way? Joel was a bad man in many occasions. Just in this example. Any of the 500 actual people you kill in part 1 can have a daughter of their own like Ellie, or a father like Joel.

      That's the point of those moments. You emotionally bond to Joel when Sarah dies, and you emotionally bond to Ellie when Joel dies. You're there to share that trauma with them, and in this case also the hate for Abby.

    Wow. That was such a powerful playthrough! From your first impression of being back in the world of the last of us and your first impression of Abby (muscle mama) to your reaction to THAT MOMENT and your beautiful closing thoughts. THANK YOU!
    I wanted to rewatch part II after watching the HBO show but could not bring myself to do it. Watching along with you is the PERFECT way to refresh myself on the story and relive my own first impressions.
    By the way I am the same as you. If I already want to see a film or a show, the trailer is basically spoiling it for me. I like to go in blind once I know I want to see something. Can't wait for your next Last of Us II session.

    Love your take on this first run. You’re intuition is spot on. When you asked if they were Fireflies, I wasn’t surprised you figured it out so quickly. I mean the foreshadowing was making it obvious, but regardless, you felt it coming.

    OMG I love your coffee cup this go round! I have not seen that and I'm a huge Star Wars buff. That is definitely on my shopping list now. Watching this and hearing Joel sing this brought me to tears. It's such a beautiful song. That whole awkward feeling you got, I felt the same way playing this for the first time. I have to say, you're taking it much better than I was at the end of your part 1. You're more rational than I was, but I guess I got more emotionally attached to Joel and Ellie and that bond they formed over the first game. I literally had to pause the game and come back hours later after calming down. I was so heart broken. Even watching you play and react to it, it brings me tears all over again and every time I play through this game. I hope you continue to enjoy playing this as I will definitely continue to watch. I just love watching others play this game to see how they react and that's how I found your channel. Seeing you and others react to not only the game going in blind but also the series, it makes me really love tuning in to the channels.

I wanted to watch the second gameplay but I wanted to play it for myself first. Finally got my hands on thes second game and I'm playing along with you. I notice I often react the exact same like you. Like how excited I got when the guitar chord progressed into the themesong and when I noticed you could jump in the second game. Looking forward to not only see it through my own eyes, but through yours as well!!

    Very interested to see you through this journey! Already got some very different reactions from the norm with muscle mommy” and the very unfortunate “Joel we found you a new wife!” lol
    Most interesting is your willingness to try and understand the possible motivations for these new characters coming in and taking out a beloved character. The lack of rage and your immediate mention and appreciation for Joel’s life is very telling that we’re in for a very different reaction and I’m here for it! I do wonder how much of your reaction is also affected by the lack of a big gap in between games. I would not be surprised if others found that at least part of their loss and anger were influenced by so much anticipation and waiting.
    Can’t fair for part 2 of part 2!

      Yes. A lot of people are flabbergasted at how Joel "just walked into" the situation that ultimately got him killed, citing that he always had that survivor instinct and that paranoid awareness from living hard. But they miss what you - and Eralia - point out - that its been four years, and those have been four years of peace - Jackson is secure, supplied, and full of well-meaning people - a suitable village that it would take to raise any person, any family. You could definitely say he got "soft" in those years, but peace - true peace - is what makes people soft.
