Roasted Mushrooms Edition
S2 finale less than 5 hours away
/tlou/ - The Last of Us general
let's drop the explosive barrels right next to our walls before we blow them up
Are there actually Abby and Ellie shippers out there? This is their fucking hand size difference
yup
And you can't convince me otherwise
Yes, there's plenty of them
Abby is female and theoretically within Ellie's dating pool, but Abby is also manly enough for a guy to self-insert as her
I’m glad the issue has finally been settled, and we can all stop talking about it
Reporting in
Why does everyone blame Druckmann for ruining TLOU2, when Halley Gross also wrote it? Surely she is also the problem
Is it because she’s not Jewish?
Cast him
I blame Druck for including the Judaism promotion and the biased ham-fisted Israel-Palestine commentary, but I think the rest is good.
And glad the show removed those things
She'd fuck her up...
Biased in which direction? The WLF do not come off well at all
I remember she created the pregnant Dina subplot just to get rid of her for a good portion of the game.
In more than one way!
at least the WLF live more like civilized, normal people
while the Seraphites are backwards religious savages who don't tolerate an LGBTQ minority, and the only good sympathetic Seraphites we meet are ones who abandoned the others
history of the conflict is muddled such that it no longer matters who or what started it, when in reality the pre-Israel Jewish settlers definitely started it
Asianbros....
just stop watching the slop. it's that simple.
R/AsianMasculinity might be seething this week.
Abby going AWOL and killing WLF soldiers is depicted as a good thing tho
If the game was pro-Israel, it wouldn’t endorse killing Israelis
Oh n-
Oh and the Judaism promotion factors into the bias too
Dina is the most morally pure, wholesome character in the world and is the only non-Seraphite who expresses their religious identity
weird unskippable synagogue section while nothing comparable is done for Islam or anything else, or even to elaborate on the Seraphites' beliefs
Yeah because it isn't explicitly pro-Israel, it's trying to be a nuanced both-sides commentary, but since Druck is from Israel it still can't help but lean in favor of his side
This would be #problematic if people care strongly about Lev's actor actually being trans, but would work well otherwise
only retards were debating it. Everyone else knew the cure would work the first time they played the game
In another world...
be honest with me teevee, is this watchable? the downey got girl is so ugly i think that alone might ruin the show for me. but besides that, is the show good? heard there's an entire episode centred around a gay couple with gay sex scenes in s01 that wasn't even in the game, so i'm thinking it's probably woke nonsense
vaccines for fungal diseases barely exist in real life
literally stopped reading. This is a proof you're all NPCs. There's nothing going on in your heads. You keep repeating this retarded argument despite the fact it makes no goddamn sense. You have cordyceps controlling humans which is like a million times more implausible than a vaccine for it based on known immune person. Stop fucking coping. This is a video game. You didn't actually doom humanity
It's a worse version of the game.
There's a solid chance Part 3 involves Ellie and Abby having to forgive each other and become reluctant allies for at least part of it.
They won't be friends or anything more but could be present together during gameplay like that
Yes it's watchable. Bella is ugly but it's balanced by Moner also being there most of the time.
The gay couple in s1 were in the game, though we didn't directly see their relationship, it was only talked about after the fact. Their episode replaces a section that was very gameplay-focused and might not have translated well to TV
Will Ellie kill anyone other than Owen and Mel (and maybe some more Infected) in the finale?
I predict no, they are determined to miss the point of the game in this regard
This season was a let down. Tommy was a let down. They did nothing with him. Jesse, while good casting, was also a let down and they also did nothing with him. Even Gail who had this hyped up shit with her husband ended up being literal nothing burger.
The only good thing about Season 2 was the introduction of Moner and Kaitlyn, and Abbey was barely in it.
Also wtf is with Ellie killing only 1 person so far? If the theme is still revenge is bad then theyre doing a bad job because she has hardly shown any anger or blood thirsty revenge this season. Im guessing in this finale episode shes going to finally go on a killing spree? Otherwise season 3 will make no sense.
that's what i thought, the game was quite good tho imo so that doesn't mean the show is bad
fair enough, might give it a try
You've never played the game.
It's possible the finale will redeem this version of Tommy and he will say something like
I'm not just here to bring you home, I'm here to get Abby
Followed by a bunch of kills
But if he doesn't then yeah, that's my biggest complaint with this adaptation, how they've neutered him and he barely seems to care about what happened to his brother
she killed two tho
they're all literal gay non-white communists in the series
if that's your thing then by all means
I'm not watching the show so I have no idea if they adressed it, but is Tommy on the loose or are there any indications that he left Jackson? I haven't seen anyone talk about him past the second episode.
Who was the second kill?
Nora
the first one? Only six times
Tommy doesn't bolt for Seattle ahead of the others, and for no good reason there's a 3 month time jump after Joel is killed, robbing it of the sense of angry vengeful urgency where Tommy and Ellie both leave while their faces are still bruised up.
Tommy and Jesse both followed in order to stop Ellie and Dina and bring them home, but only Jesse has shown up in Seattle so far
Inb4,
A cure wouldn't have even happened
Joel was objectively right /wrong
Ellie was objectively right/wrong
Abby was objectively right /wrong
The Jews are responsible
Shills
Trannies did this
Its not even good
Talking about this story is an absolutely insane act of futility. It's the same points over and over and over since 2020.
Yeah well youre clearly not dumb enough to misunderstand it like me so youre wrong.
Oh yeah. But she deserved it and was a direct retaliation for them killing Joel. Im talking about the hundreds of people (and dogs) she should have senselessly violently killed by now so they can pull the "violence solves nothing" lesson by the end of the story. TV show Ellie hasnt done anything questionably bad so far like in the game.
huhh.... jews!!!
It's odd how they spent multiple scenes back in Jackson showing Ellie doing combat training, when it turns out she's not really getting into melee fights with anyone.
Unless grabbing the one guy from behind and headlocking him counted...
someone post the pic of Dever warming her magnificent brapper by the fire
The chopped of us
You can do it Elleh
me in the back
show can do a dark moody visual there, but not for when it was most important
reeeeeee
Seriously they fucked up the scenery of the moment so badly it's unreal
It's so grimy and claustrophobic in the game while it's bright and squeaky clean in the show
And the lack of a staircase leading down to it means Ellie's eventual PTSD flashback will have to do something else and probably be less effective
Ngl they really should just finish things by season 3, not to be a hater or anything but extending the story to a fourth season it might be too much, you can only do like 4 or 5 episodes out of the Farm and Santa Barbara at BEST
Craig Mazin is not a good writer
Whoever said he was?
I agree and hope they do a longer season 3 and conclude the Part 2 stuff there.
BUT they could easily stretch the epilogue to 7 episodes if they wanted to
episode showing Tommy adjusting to his disability and how he learned Abby and Lev's whereabouts
have Abby and Lev's arrival in Santa Barbara, contacting Fireflies and getting captured be a whole episode instead of just ~10 minutes
episode showing something ???? happening along the way during Ellie's trip to Santa Barabara instead of just having a time jump teleport her there
and so on
This guy touches kids guaranteed
It's a harmless joke and people wouldn't think anything of it if they weren't trans obsessed
It's a harmless joke
Okay, but wtf is it doing in tlou2?
Still no Shamblers
Yep and they've 99% confirmed they are doing the Rat King next season, which is cool but probably eats up the entire Infected CGI budget so still no shamblers and no bloater/s there either
In game
Ellie gets mad at dina for not telling her about it.
Dina:i didn't want to be a burden
Ellie: well you sure as hell are now
Then ellie walks off and they dont talk for the rest of the day.
in show.
Wow im gonna be a dad! Great news!
What the living hell was he thinking? "Haha wow im just glad were all having a good time"
Doesnt kill anyone
Is now le wholesome
Theyre going to change the ending entirely for Ellie in the show, arent they?
They still kind of did the burden/unease over putting pregnant Dina in danger thing in the next episode though, when they find the pile of scar bodies. It wasn't totally neglected
I unironically love both games!
Quads confirm they are good. Same.
My biggest complaint about Part 2 is how at the very end Ellie doesn't put the guitar back in the case lmao
Same. I really wanted people who didn't play the game to see how good the story is. Its annoying to see them change it so they still wont experience the story i love so much.
My wife
Housewife Moner for season 4
I'm watching from here
What should I expect for the finale?
Santa Barbara Ellie stinks btw
At what point in Part 2 did she ever not stink?
Nice revisionist history you got there.
That makes it hotter!
Both look kino. What's the problem?
Imagine being her and pretending this moid's weiner feels good when you'd like nothing more than to be back in Seattle scissoring Dina. Imagine being all like "damn anon i like your cock and your fat unwashed body, i'd totally fuck you even if it wasn't a coomer animation that some faggot posted without so much as the sauce".
Nothing's wrong with either shot, it looks like the show did a good job replicating it.
The "problem" is the ugliness of what will happen once Ellie reaches her destination there
Maybe they are making her chilled out so that the viewer stays on her side, if she killed 100 people then everyone would think Abby was the hero of the story.
where's the torrent
doesn't air for another 37 minutes
what about the latest episode of the walking slop: the dead show
no idea what you're talking about nigga
can't wait to see my girl in the finale
Too fat
sometimes it looks like the walking dead unironically
then you get a joel and ellie flashback and stop looking like TWD
Why does every mainstream normalfag show have the exact same snow siege scene?
