    Details I Found During Ellie's Day 1

    Posted: 16 May 2021 06:28 PM PDT

    I've done posts like this in the last regarding details I found in Jackson and on The Farm, and I figured I should do one for Seattle. I was originally going to do a massive post for both character's three days in Seattle, but that'd be a LOT, so I figured I'd break these up.

    This one concerns Ellie's Day 1, as said in the title. This section honestly contains my favorite detail in the game now that I've found it. Hope you all enjoy!

    • At the "Fuck FEDRA" Gate, you can walk up to the spray painted message right next to the gate and hit triangle. If you do this, Ellie will talk about how if someone were to tag a FEDRA Gate like this in Boston and get caught, they'd be "beaten, or worse."

    • If you ride around the open area for a little bit after initially marking up the map, Ellie and Dina will have a conversation about what it was like growing up in a QZ, why FEDRA bombed certain parts of the city, and whether or not Ellie would've become "another asshole soldier" if she had stayed in Boston.

    • If you attempt to open the door to the WLF hideout inside the Barkos pet store before finding the key to that door, there's a change in dialogue once you actually find the key. If you've attempted to open that door, when you find the key, Ellie will say something along the lines of "this might be for that pet store we were at earlier."

    • This has been pointed out a few times, but it doesn't matter whether or not you go to the courthouse or the synagogue for the gas first. The gas tank will be empty, no matter which location you go to first.

    • Sometimes when making a stealth kill, Dina will whisper some sort of quip, similar to how Ellie does it. I've only noticed her say "shut up," where as Ellie has a variety of different things she'll say when grabbing and killing an enemy.

    • If you find the gas in the synagogue, there's a funny bit of dialogue where Ellie will say "oh, hell yeah!" in reaction to getting the gas, and Dina will admonish her for her language. Ellie will say that she found the gas, to which Dina replies, "oh, fuck yeah!"

    • This is a gameplay detail, but the gas can indicator on the HUD will be empty if you don't have gas, but will turn white (or, presumably, whatever color your HUD is) once you have the gas.

    • You can fire your gun inside the synagogue, but you cannot shoot the Torah or the Hebrew calendar you find after finding the gas. I originally thought you couldn't shoot at all in the synagogue, and wanted to see if my memory was correct.

    • Once you're in the bank vault, Ellie will just say "thanks dude" to the skeleton with the shotgun even if you don't pick anything up. I'm on NG+ and I've got full shotgun ammo, so I couldn't pick anything up, but she still said it as if she did pick up the gun or the ammo.

    • When you kill Jordan, there's a prompt to hit square, but you can also hit triangle and Ellie kills him all the same. I found this one out by accident.

    • After clearing through the waves of WLF and getting out of the school, you can find a note that carries Isaac's new mandate to kill all trespassers. At first, I thought this was an old mandate, but the note talks about sending "additional units to find the other woman," and instructs Jordan's team to be at the FOB by the end of the day.

    • After this first encounter with the Wolves, you can hear Ellie quietly hyperventilating. It becomes more and more pronounced once you sprint with her.

    • After leaving the school, you'll come across this apartment where a runner has just killed someone. This runner is upstairs. For some reason, this runner won't make it's presence known until Ellie makes it up the stairs, even if Dina goes up first.

    • This is more of a general thing, but there's a real shift in the tone of the dialogue after the shootout at the school. In the open world, it was pretty light hearted and fun between the two girls. Afterwards, Ellie seems a bit standoffish and closed off, especially when asked about Joel or what happened in the chalet.

    • There's a gas station where a WLF patrol is supposed to attack you, but it doesn't spawn in until you interact with a work bench in their garage. Across the street, there's a bookstore with infected inside. If you lure the infected out of the store before the patrol spawns in, the patrol and the infected will attack each other when the patrol does actually spawn in.

    • You can go into that book store after all of the commotion, and you'll find a section selling LGBTQ+ books. Dina will comment on the rainbow flag hanging in the store, a copy of Sorority Sisters that she finds, and a poster about a book called New Recruits, featuring two guys looking very affectionate with one another on it. Every time Dina makes a comment, Ellie will remind her to keep looking for supplies.

    • This is a long one, and my favorite. In the tunnels of the train station, there's a collectable called Locker Room Note. On one side, someone named V writes that if Dewey can get them a soda, the code to a door in this area is theirs. On the flip side, you see the note is on a torn piece of a newspaper article. The article is titled "MIRACULOUS SURVIVAL IN SUBURB THOUGHT ABANDONED" and is about how the military found an entire group of people surviving in a suburb while the neighborhoods around them are being overrun by CBI. These community members "unanimously credited their survival to one woman" who claimed she "had a vision" of the catastrophe. The members claimed that this woman "guided them" through the darkness. I believe this is the story of the Scar Prophet.

    • In the theatre, if you go onto the balcony and find the soldier's things before turning the power on, Ellie will be worried that someone is living there. If you do it after, she'll remark that it must be the soldier's belongings.

    • Also in the theatre, you have to turn the power on to get the keys. Also also, there's a line that she says, "I hope you were a better soldier than an electrician," that changes based on what you do. If you find the note on top of the radio and then go turn the power on, she says it as she finds his burnt corpse. If you turn the power on and then find the note, she says it at the radio.

    • When Ellie brushes the dust off the guitar, you can actually see clouds of dust kick up off the instrument.

    EDIT: I've linked to my previous posts about Jackson and The Farm

    A hero's death

    Posted: 16 May 2021 09:24 AM PDT

    Ok so am I the only one that thinks Joel DID get a heroic death? Most people are pissed because they felt Joel was thrown away like an NPC as a plot device and didn't die in the typical heroic fashion like other video game characters do.

    I see a bunch of people saying he should have died protecting Ellie but isn't that exactly what happened? He saved Ellie from the fireflies who were gonna kill her without any guarantee that a vaccine would be made. He even mentions to Ellie that despite knowing it was a shitty thing to do, he has no regrets.

    You could also interpret Joel's "say whatever speech you've got rehearsed" as him realizing Abby is probably some ex firefly. I remember Troy even mentioned Joel was thinking in his head "you could hurt me all you want but at the end of the day, the girl is alive"

    He learned to move on and cope with Sarah's death, found a true purpose in life, rubbed salt on the wounds of the group that has him pinned down after his leg was blown off, didn't give his torturer any form of satisfaction by taking it to the point that Abby was forced to take off her jacket and gloves. That sounds like a heroic death to me. Also, his death is what motivated Ellie to move and from her past which she was obsessed with.

    The conflict between the WLF and the Seraphites in Part II offers a different, new perspective on Joel‘s decision at the end of the first game!

    Posted: 16 May 2021 04:31 PM PDT

    I think one of the most interesting aspects of Part II are the many events that make you ask over and over again if Joel did the right thing by saving Ellie from being killed to make a cure. And while it was certaintly a fucked up situation that cost many lifes, we can all agree that Joel's main reason to save Ellie's life was the unconditional love and the strong bond that developed over the course of the first game. Joel was willing to do it, to give Ellie a chance to live a better life, no matter the consequences that would come.

    A few weeks ago, I thought about the conflict between the WLF and the Seraphites that we see escalate in the three days we spend with Ellie and Abby in Seattle again. And while it was always clear it served as the parallel to the cycle of violence between Ellie and Abby, another way it can be seen could be that it's supposed to show a vaccine couldn't have healed the humanity in the world of "The Last of Us".

    Just look at it from this angle: The WLF and the Seraphites couldn't find a solution to share a very large territory like the entirety of Seattle. What do you think would happen if various factions get wind of the Fireflies having a vaccine, perhaps in a very limited amount? All "The Last of Us" games have established that a huge amount of people have gotten used to violence and killing, they see it as completely normal, the only solution or even as entertainment (the Rattlers for example). While not everyone is like this (look at the Jackson community) Part II has shown that it is hard for most to get out of the cycle of violence, a cycle Ellie and Abby have sadly also fallen into before letting it go.

    It is possible that it could have sparked hope among the people and made everything better, but it also could also have made everything even worse, to a point where they destroy themselves entirely, just like the WLF and the Seraphites did.

    Times and Distances help

    Posted: 16 May 2021 08:18 PM PDT

    I'm working on a detailed timeline of P2 and I wanted to run some numbers by the community to see if you agree. I'm look at travel times for the three long trips Ellie makes from Jackson. Here are my thoughts:

    • Average horse walking speed is 4 mph (Google is source)
    • The number of miles a horse can travel in a day varied widely in the sites I looked at (from 20 to 100 " if it's a fit endurance competitor"), so I went with an average of 50 miles/day
    • Jackson to Seattle is 880-935 miles depending on route, so I figured about 18-20 days for Ellie and Dina (plus Tommy and Jesse separately)
    • Jackson to Salt Lake City is about 260 miles, so I figured about 5 days for Ellie and Joel to travel there separately. They were both pretty motivated, so maybe 4...
    • Jackson to Santa Barbara is about 1050 miles; there's no evidence a horse was part of this journey; I used Google Maps, which says it would take about 330 hours to walk, so about 22 days (if she's doing 15 hour days, which by her appearance and determination, seems reasonable) (not factoring in the time hiding from the infected, so the actual journey may have been more like a month)

    Any feedback is much appreciated

    New Game plus

    Posted: 16 May 2021 06:30 PM PDT

    I finally got around to buying part 2 last week and just beat it. For ng+ does it delete my original save file from my first play through or does it make another save file for it, much like Spider-Man miles morales ng+

    Who managed to complete a Grounded Permadeath playthrough? Rate it on a scale of 1 to 10 in terms of difficulty?

    Posted: 16 May 2021 12:32 PM PDT

    Alright, I've got to wonder how many of you guys had as much trouble as I'm having in my playthrough. In my defense, I had stopped playing the game for several months, so I've got no idea what the enemies' patterns are! I'm close to the end of Seattle Day Two with Ellie (though it feels like I died like a hundred times before getting there), but it feels like there are enemies everywhere. All it takes is one glance at me, and it's free real estate. :)

    It's definitely a 10 for me. What about you?

    Ellie's Tattoo

    Posted: 16 May 2021 11:00 AM PDT

    Hey pals! I'm thinking about getting Ellie's moth (just the moth) tattooed on myself. I'm curious if any of you who have gotten her full tattoo asked permission of the original artist first? I feel like that's common courtesy, but I'm not sure if Natalie Hall gets messaged constantly about that tattoo and if she's cool with it in general. Just curious to hear your guys' thoughts!
