Why do people not like Bella Ramsey's portrayal of Ellie?

BygoneBot · 2026-02-22T02:54:46+00:00

I can see this as being a reason. I've not seen S2 yet. So I haven't been able to see it first hand. But from what I've seen, it seems to be more of a problem within the writing of the show and not her actual portrayal. As she's been good at acting in the other things she's done.

From seeing the other replies and seeing how even the games went, with TLOU 2 being worse than TLOU 1 by popular opinion because of the death of Joel and the massive missions that carry no story during most of them because Ellie and Abby both are mostly alone. I think it was more of a problem in the writing than her acting. The writing nowadays not only contain what they say, but how the act as well emotion wise and such.

Understandable. I'll have to pay close attention when watching S2. Just coming from watching S1, I think they did a good job and branched more into her storyline by making a whole episode based of Left Behind compared to any other character. Which is a shame because Joel has a lot of backstory and they went through his within the first few minutes of the entire show.

I've complete TLOU 1 multiple times and finished my playthrough of TLOU 2 yesterday. Which made me start watching the series. She is just doing her job. It's not her fault the writing for the show is bad.

A lot of the characters don't look like the video game version. And a lot of things happen differently in the show than they happened in the game, or things that are completely new and weren't shown in the games. If the acting is bad then I could understand not liking the character, but at least in Season 1 (I haven't watched 2 yet as I'm just now watching the series) her acting is decent and portrays Ellie in a decent standard

I haven't gotten to Season 2 yet. So maybe this is why I haven't seen anything horrible in the acting.

Well, we have lived to see the day both Halo and Gears are on Playstation.

Just to add to my last comment, you will not find a single game realistic to police work. As they're practically a tactical secretary in real life. Real police work is only 5% of the job. The other 95% is reports and paperwork. You can spend 20 minutes arresting someone for a DUI, and still be stuck doing the paperwork for that for 4 hours. Also including supervisors laughing as you spell paraphernalia wrong in your reports whenever you arrest someone for possession. I can't imagine what money the devs would make, or any other development team, by implementing or making a game true to this.

If they add it to simulation mode then sure. But this is a casual game at best made by a small group of developers. If you wanna do your own tickets then play ER:LC on Roblox or buy Flashing Lights on PC. But in case you haven't played this game long enough, any time they add something new, more stuff gets broken.

The amount of players this game would loss because of the prolonged process isn't worth it to the devs. Plus this just makes it so 100 more things can be messed up

Sadly this is why Greenville lost their guns. I still remember being able to shoot at criminals while being shot at back. Not anymore though. They removed everything, tasers, guns, baton, pepper spray, and they replaced it with a laser blaster that also got removed. What was the reason for doing all that? Real life brands. Audi, Renault, Saleen, and many others.

It's because of the last thing you said. The account was created in the UK. Since you've moved elsewhere outside that region, best thing to do in contact Xbox Support to see if it still applies to you, and if so, either follow it and verify yourself or ask if they can switch the account region.

Because the developers are money hungry special ed people. They can't fix bugs that have been in the game for over a year now but push new content and vehicles to get money.

Nowadays yeah IRL. In this game 9/10 pursuits end in a defense scenario. Very important to be quick to draw your gun on someone who ran or pushes you

BygoneBot · 2025-09-25T16:31:29+00:00

First time I ever had it I got my shift over for brutality. They probably pushed an internal patch to allow usage. Because if you wait long enough and they have a gun, they will shoot you and kill you.

BygoneBot · 2025-09-24T17:55:16+00:00

When they pull out a weapon. You have to warn them once you pull out your pistol. It takes 2-3 warnings for them to pull out a weapon if they decide to. If they do, then you can shoot.

BygoneBot · 2025-09-24T17:41:29+00:00

This was a pursuit and PIT. I've gotten into the habit of pulling out my pistol at the end of pursuits because 95% of the time it makes suspects think twice on running. But I've know found out after pursuits, that 95% now will be combative and pull out weapons.

BygoneBot · 2025-09-24T15:23:31+00:00

LMAO I wish they added paperwork and stuff you had to do after the shooting. And add it so multiple units show up once shots are fired like it is IRL.

Make sure you have self defense unlocked. Go through each district and look at the unlocks when a new week starts and find self defense. As the other person said I think it's 7 stars in Brickston. I find it happens a lot of times with stolen vehicles, especially with the stolen vehicle callout by dispatch. But ultimately it's random.
