A bereaved father himself, writer Dan Lipscombe dives into the complicated, grief-led emotions that drives Joel's actions at the end of The Last of Us.

On April 28th, 2024, the National Forum of Music in Wroclaw will once again become a place to celebrate the art of video game music, featuring scores from The Last of Us and The Last of Us Part II." - The Game Music Foundation.
Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."
They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.
I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.
Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"
They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.
That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.
The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.
All they had to do was make a basic online mode like their previous games. Instead they wanted more money and choose to go live service which makes games worse in my opinion.
What a waste of time and money, what a shame.
I can't wait for season 2 so they can kill Joel off in the first 2 episodes!! Then it will be just Abby and Ellies revenge plot!
Something is telling me that this won't happen though because it wouldn't make sense, oh wait
Not sure why they didn’t just make Factions 2. There was no need to make it a live service.
TLoU Factions was a great addition such a shame they couldn’t be bothered to remaster that for PS5 considering the crazy high price tag of the remaster of a remaster…
This is something to be celebrated. This studio is smart and they get it, even factions 2 wouldn't've have been worth the time. I am surprised they didn't just remaster the first one though, but actually how popular was Factions?
Not really an impossible decision, he loved her
Also the Fireflies were incompetent assholes who saw him try and do CPR on an unconscious person when they clearly looked distressed. They told Joel about how this one person could POSSIBLY get a cure out of Ellie despite performing no other procedures, studying her or taking blood samples. They had no real plan to distribute the cure and would most likely use it more as leverage against FEDRA with them being terroists (they blow up checkpoints killing civilians) and also they marched Joel out of that hospital at gunpoint without any of his gear after treating him like shit and were most likely going to kill him outside.
He did the right thing, I don't even know how this is a debate sometimes, the world in TLOU universe is gone and I don't think a cure would totally fix it.
I maintain that there's a reason the game begins and ends with a group attempting to murder a child as a sacrifice for the survival of humanity. It's the conundrum of trying to sacrifice humanity to save humanity. Killing Sarah didn't save humanity and neither would killing Ellie. We, the audience, are supposed to assume the cure would have worked. The reason it's questionable in the world of the game/show is to show that the Fireflies, like the government and military at the beginning of the outbreak, are willing to murder a child on a gamble. The cure would have worked. It wouldn't have saved humanity from itself.
I mean it's a post apocalyptic world. Everyone will make very difficult and selfish decisions. For Joel, Ellie is like a daughter to him. Would anybody else in Joel's position and bond with Ellie have done the same? There is no good or evil in such a world, everyone will do anything to survive and protect those they care about.
I think Joel made the right decision and Ellie should've made the decision herself instead of being forced to at adult age. But no, they decided to go ahead with the operation of a clueless child for a chance to save humanity with absolutely no guarantee. From their perspective, it was the right decision. From Joel's perspective, it was the right decision for him and Ellie. Again, no right or wrong, no hero nor villain in such a world. It's everyone for themselves. Survival of the fittest.
All Marlene had to do was tell the Doctor to infect mothers during child birth to get a generation of people born who were immune. The hard part would be finding volunteers. Then again I don't remember the Dr. explaining things to Ellie before he was going to kill her.
