saw your tlou2 thoughts and as someone who didn’t agree with the direction tlou2 went thought i’d explain…

the main issue is that the story doesn’t trust the player enough to let them come to their own conclusions. yes the idea is to have you sympathize with abby, but they try so hard to do so it comes across as forced and ingenuine (ellie met a zoo animal so abby must also have cute interaction w a zoo animal! abby plays w dog so ellie must kill that same dog!) I went into the game wanting to like Abby, and I don’t think that Joel shouldn’t have died! But I don’t need 15 hours of gameplay to appreciate Abby, in fact, the further her section went on, the more I distanced from her because it became so painfully obvious that the game was trying desperately to suddenly make me like her. The comparisons they attempted to draw to Ellie felt shallow and the entire 15 hour section felt crammed in and something that could have been handled so much more efficiently and thoughtfully.

Abby has done absolutely horrible things (murdered countless Scars as part of a malicious military group whose seeming sole purpose is to kill anyone who intrudes on their territory, relished in the opportunity to kill a young pregnant woman, knowingly had sex with a man cheating on one of her only friends, these aren’t even including the joel situation) I won’t deny that Ellie has done horrible shit as well, and I don’t agree with her Seattle/SantaBarbara rampage. But to see so many people and the narrative itself uphold Abby as the “better” person is so strange to me?

There are many more issues I have with tlou2 but this was the big one for me. I think a lot of tlou2 critics aren’t taken seriously (you just don’t like it bc you don’t like strong female leads! you just don’t like it bc you don’t get it! you don’t understand how bad revenge is!) instead of leaving room for open narrative discussion. I still think it’s got some truly beautiful moments but the story overall left such a bad taste in my mouth. Apologies for this stupidly long message, feel free to ignore but just wanted to offer up my thoughts.

This has a lot of the same points as the longer ask I just posted I just wanted to say I get you and I think these are valid points.

I think a critical look at the characters should show that neither Abby or Ellie are “good” or “bad” and there’s not a hero or a villain in this story, and it’s reductive to place them in those roles. But perhaps the game does try to say that Ellie is the loser and Abby is the winner at the end?

My initial post was specifically about seeing lots of comments that I see that say “I hate Abby because she killed Joel” which I think is a lot less justified and nuanced than the kinds of takes in my inbox.

there is just something about santabarbara!ellie you know… there’s just something so seasoned and older about her… there’s no nervous rizz or giggles whilst kissing with her like there would have been in jackson, but straight up heavy strap deep inside you and a hand clutching your cheeks. “yeah. look at me when you take it. you like bein’ fucked like this, huh pretty girl.” 🤭
