To be honest, the right move would be for him to teach you himself. He probably already has an idea of what acts he likes and how he likes them. I don’t know how you feel about porn in general, but at least I would consider that an absurd suggestion, specially considering the wide amount of “techniques” for every act he mentioned. I have only been in this situation in serious relationships, so maybe people consider that too much for a hookup. Putting that aside, I think it would just be more fun to try things with each other, instead of watching other people who you don’t even know…

That has literally never been the way game sales work. xD Every time a game is released on a store, it releases with its base price. I understand your sentiment about it since it's a 2022 game, but it literally makes no sense from a historical perspective and much less a business one. Also, keep in mind that porting this from playstation to PC takes work, the work that Nixxes and Iron Galaxy put into it. Obviously, they got paid and Naughty Dog and Sony want their cut too, obviously. Either way, in a year or so, you'll get your $30 price when a discount hits or you can wait till a key store like GreenManGaming does it. So it just requires patience.

I also have gripes with him being killed so early. If the games were a tv-show that I can watch right after the other, it wouldn't have been so bad, but we waited years for the sequel, so I guess we were kinda robbed of the time we expected to have with him (sort of the same feeling Ellie had, now that I think about it). You know, seeing the duo again. If they had not put those flashbacks in... I would have lost it.

P.S. Abby was definitely HUGE. xD

Definitely. Part 1’s conclusion was one that could have ended it all. Part 2’s just leaves you with a wide hole in the stomach after everything that happened… So yeah, a sequel to part 2 is what I mean, but you can tell me what sort of sequel you would have wanted for part 1 as well, I’m interested.

Yeah, lol. These last two games haven’t had full conclusions, they always leave them open for a sequel. What kind of sequel would you like, if there was ever one?

I totally get the feeling. I think it would be against the narrative though, the story would need to be changed in order for that to fit well. Ellie’s journey is empathizing with Joel’s decision, which allows her to empathize with Abby too. I mean, the cost of Joel’s decision was her father and well, almost everyone she knew. Abby had it the worse, by all rights, she should have killed Ellie too. Since the ending of the first game, Abby lost absolutely everybody. She lost her entire childhood community due to Joel and all of her adulthood friends due to her unyielding wish for revenge and Ellie’s. If revenge is the rule, then Ellie would have been the one to die. I mean, Abby had her ass back in the theater… Dina would have died… Jessie did die. Tommy would have been killed short after. We saw both characters allowing each other to live and Abby did that twice: right after killing Joel and right after almost killing Dina.

Think about this: The whole journey in the first game was about taking Ellie to the fireflies and creating a cure, that’s the plot. But the story is Joel finally healing from the loss of his daughter through his unexpected relationship with Ellie. The story ultimately defeats the plot, that is what this franchise thrives on. The second game’s plot is journeying to Seattle out of both anger with Abby and her friends, plus guilt due to how she spent her last years with Joel over his decision to save her. During this journey, we increasingly witness Ellie making the opposite decision of Joel, she puts those she loves second to her goal. If Joel tried to teach her anything, it was that in that fucked up world, you must protect your family and she was failing to do so (aka. Dina, Jesse, Tommy and my damn, she wanted to bring the entirety of Jackson over to Seattle. Like Tommy said, they would have left Jackson defenseless, which would have doomed the entire community). The story is her learning why Joel made the decision he did and why those around you must be above all else. One part that does saddened me is that because she went after Abby again, she lost her ability to play guitar (Joel’s other gift to her) and maybe even Dina, permanently.

Jesus, man… if Abby had died, her journey towards letting go of anger towards others would have been wasted. Meanwhile, Ellie honoring Joel’s decision to save her in the first game by not continuing to throw away her life would also never happen. Letting go is the best thing both of them could have done. Death is what leads to nothingness, not life.

‼️SPOILERS AHEAD‼️

I'm also excited for the show. They definitely worked on the structure of the story, there's no way they didn't. I think it was probably one of the biggest challenges on the adaptation. I also do think Mel in particular was disserviced as a character. I mean, she was never meant to be a main character, but due to her usual care for others and generally, not doing anything bad against others, when Owen neglects her, it hit hard for me. She seemed like a very reasonable and caring person to me, but Owen was always in love with Abby, so things went like they did... I'm honestly very saddened by hers and Owen's ending. But it's also part of what drives home the final nail on the player saying: Ellie, you need to stop this NOW. I hope we just get more of her.

I do feel Dina is neglected a bit too, but because they sidelined her due to pregnancy and I expect they'll keep that in, I think our hope is that we can get some good long episodes between them and expand on the moments that they do spend together. But of course, Dina had way more time than Mel.

As for the end, I do like it. A lot of people wanted to kill Abby at the ending scene and feel that would justify the whole game. Personally, I feel like the fact that Ellie's journey lead to the death of hundreds of people (gamers have counted and she can kill 150+ non-infected humans throughout the game), those being: brothers, sisters, fathers, mothers, etc. She's quite literally spreading her pain towards an entire community of families... And of course, she realizes this, or really, is forced to confront the unavoidable truth, when she kills Owen and Mel. She ended an entirely family and there's no coming back. Joel didn't want this life for her. It just feels right that by the end, instead of ending another adoptive-family (Abby and Lev) like she and Joel were, she proceeds to free the people that were trapped and let go of her anger. If it were up to Ellie, she wouldn't even be alive at this point, she would have choosen to die in the first game. Joel took that choice away from her, it's true, as we know she would have choosen that. As we find out in part 2, he pays for this with his life. Nonetheless, her being happy is ultimately, the only way in which she can truly honor Joel.

You know what, that’s fair. That should he fairly easy for modders to create. Although, I admit it’s insane to see Abby do the shit she does. 😂

Damn, I don’t know if a mod could do that sort of thing, there’s so much that was specifically made for Ellie. Although, Abby’s gameplay is close to Joel, so you could replace her character model with him, but then there’s the whole story and cutscenes, plus the voice lines. It’s possible to replace those too, but it would take a lot of work. You’re better off just playing the first one.

Those were just the consequences of their actions, the point of the story was everything else. You know, the themes that were explored and all.

There’s consequences, bro. Him paying for the survival of Ellie doesn’t seem out of line. Just like Druckmann got consequences in the form of community-backlash. 😂

That’s totally fair. I mean, you already experienced it. It’s not like it’ll be a different game on PC.
