Ellie vs Riley’s reaction to being bitten really says a lot to me about Ellie and why she has such survivors guilt. Riley seems to have accepted it immediately, but Ellie is angry and upset bc I really think she wants to live. Not saying Riley doesn’t want to live, but she seems more at peace with dying. Yet Ellie is such a damn survivor, but the fact that she’s outlived so many people makes her feel guilty.
One thing that seems to stay consistent with Ellie and her arc is the how integral her (survivor's) guilt is to her character as well as how her instinctual reaction to immense stress was to opt for violence. She is partially responsible for her & Riley getting infected, and she reacts by destroying inanimate objects with a pipe. She puts Joel's life in danger by getting tracked and is almost killed by a cannibal pedo, and she reacts by obliterating his face with a machete in a frenzy. Her father is taken away from her before she could mend their broken bond, and so her reaction escalates to such horrifying degrees... until she manages to snap herself out of it. Some view the ending of Part 2 as needlessly bleak and depressing, but when I look out that window, past the guitar, I no longer see a wild girl plagued by survivor's guilt... I see a mature woman who has _finally_ started to heal.
i love how right after Ashley says she is a completionist and needs to get every little thing, she completely walks by the first gun w four bullets in it and nobody else even notices
Yes and it's the best thing ever! I gatta say a HUGE thank you to Ashley, Neil, and all of naughty dog. As a lesbian, having that in such an amazing game... Like this little beautiful badass main character being gay.... It was just everything for me! Love it.
@@fallenaasimar3878 me too!!!! ❤️ that representation is just so fucking important!! And she's also so beautiful, n that doesn't hurt. Lol like, I def wouldn't kick her out if bed! Or cascina (aka Dina's face model) for that matter. Lol
When Ashley said, "Lemur!" At 2:02:12, the Critter in me melted. She saw Liam's name. This was fantastic, and I can't believe I didn't know this existed until now.
25:00 This scene where they find Winston's shack is very similar to where they find Eugene's pot farm in Part 2. The photograph of a younger man in both, Ellie and her paramore in both, the taking of alcohol and drugs in both. It's a very direct connection.
@@LanderProduction Thanks. I played both games and DLC together. I found so many intentional or coincidental nods between them. I always cringe when Ellie loses her shit at the cannibal joke from the pun book in the DLC. If only she knew about her run in with David, I'm not sure she'd find it so funny anymore. Perhaps the loss of her sense of humour is a symbol to her loss of innocence.
@@johnluvsluna There are so many hidden gems in this story, you always find something new to think about when you replay the game. Yeah, there's a big change in her after the Winter Chapter but she'll always be the stubborn and funny little girl we know even though reality hit her hard, hope is always near
43:04 Why does this feel so Ellie? XD I’m just imagining Ellie and Joel playing on a PS3 and Joel saying there was ammo back there, and El just responding exactly like this “There was?!” *Enemy charges* “Oh, fuck you!”
I just keep thinking how weird it would be for Ashley Johnson and Troy baker, to play their own game, and being like hey that’s me I remember when we did that on set. Idk I just think it would be really crazy
@@fire_playz5110 ********SPOILER ALERT******** Laura bailey aka Sarah is so amazing. N of course Laura also plays Abby in part 2. It's crazy that the same actress who plays Joel's daughter also plays his killer. AMAZING.
@Tim C I would delete or edit that comment but I don't wanna n accused of dirty deleting so I'm going to leave it. Correcting someone is fine, but maybe you should work on HOW you approach them. Really wasn't any reason at all to be rude. A conversation would have been much nicer.
@@canniloni I know it's a silly little fact but I like sharing it lol. Like you know you have a real friend when they can teach you the correct sound to make while burning alive. Lmao. We all need a Liam in our lives. Hell we all need an Ellie and Dina too! ❤️
but in The Last of us part II, in the conversation between Dina and Ellie already tells how she got the tattoo. Ellie's ex-girlfriend got the tattoo, Kat.
This is so nice and somehow special to me. I played part I and I didnt particularly have this connection to Ellies as many havem than I played Part II and my goodness, I fell in love hard with her. Replaying Part I again I see her in a wholke different light and actually now I absolutely adore her.
Coming back here after Part 2, now we know who Chelsea plays; Nora. So low-key we got a Riley/Ellie interaction in Part 2, or at least how Riley/Ellie would be if Chelsea got the part. (Minus the torture scene lmao)
not gonna lie, watching ashley johnson content over the past few months made me realize that almost all of ellie's characteristics, mannerisms, and personality are based on ashley.
But sadly if she had Ellie would be so different, maybe no tattoo bc she's be with Riley n never met kat, maybe no finding out she was immune. Ellie would probably have become a Firefly. Probably never would have met Joel, which means none of game 1 or 2 would happen.
after I beat the game of remastered I felt so curious so I played left behind the way I think it started was when Joel fell and got stabbed and we were at the mall as Ellie i ddint finish it i will be soon
@@LanderProduction well they are the salt lake crew, but left behind happened about a year before joel and ellie get there, so who knows where they were before that. probably isn’t intentional, i just think it’s interesting there’s two fireflies named mel in the game.
One thing that isn't mentioned is Factions - the multiplayer of The Last of Us (and Remastered). I'm actually very curious how that impacted the ability to have a Story DLC like this. Factions offered players an evergreen gameplay loop. If you liked combat, you had an infinite system to replay it competitively. So with that, Left Behind wasn't exactly the next thing after the story. Players were able to keep playing the gameplay in Factions multiplayer. I wonder it became easier to pitch this Story DLC to players, since it wasn't their only avenue for more TLOU gameplay. They could go to Left Behind for more Story, and right back into Factions if they wanted more gameplay. Also, I think this DLC plays so differently depending on how you frame it. I first played it in the order of release. But then I replayed the game so that I stopped at Winter, played the DLC, then continued the game. It really hit Ellie's story more directly. By the end of the game, you feel even more that this game is her story. RE: QTE's - totally agree with Neil. They are such a great way to connect the character's actions to the player's body. When Naughty Dog has me spam triangle to get through a door while a Bloater rushes for me, I spam that button! It's a great tool to physically connect the player and the character. Naughty Dog is great at using them too. One more - I love the contrast between the two stories, and how they play off eachother. With Riley, you see Ellie living for something, enjoying life; then you flip to with Joel, and you see why she's fighting so hard. She's so used to risking her heart and losing (even when she wins, like the kiss, she ends up losing -- every happy memory turns to pain and trauma), and she's just refusing to let go of Joel. And finally, Neil totally reminds me of myself - trying so hard not to backseat game but struggling to watch screw themselves over.
I know this is a year ago but I just need to say. If you wanna ask and answer about everything around the game then make it an interview video, it will still be an interesting one. But if you make a playthrough then I would expect them to focus on the game and, if anything, comment and give facts about what's happening in the game. Sometimes, Ashley and Neil were concentrating on the game then had to answer a question, it feels uncomfortable to me
24:10 Come ooon Ashley you can do it!! Oh god why do they have to be soo much formal? Relax girl, you're not talking about the 2nd world war, it's just a videogame, yeah maybe the 2nd best game of all time (Mgs2 is the 1st one for me) but it still is just a videogame, just relax! Ps: Please guys do not hate, I love her, she's an amazing actress, she's just awesome. Just needs to be more relaxed, and less formal. That's just my opinion.
@@Fidolorous thought you meant for Ellie and riley cause same till the end of the dlc and then I was sad I knew it happened it's just sad to see it unfold
If you talk thru the cut scenes, there's no reason to play it. Just discuss the game. What's the point of totally ignoring the game, while "playing" it? LOL!
Malcolm Drake, It's true that they should have paid more attention to the game. I guess it's because they must have played it a hundred times but it was good to hear some behind the scenes secrets 😛
Hey idiot, how about you stop hating on him just because he made one bad game. Like honestly, he just makes one bad game and you're such a hater that you disrespect the guy who MADE THE FIRST LAST OF US!! Oh, that's right, you're so dumb that you forgot about that didn't you?!

You're right Ivon, Survivor's Guilt can be devastating
