Last Of Us 3 Plot leaked Abby gets an infection from being stabbed so many times in dirty water. Abby dies. Rest of the game is just flashbacks on how the water came to be dirty.

imagine Squidward didn't punch that guy with a pizza at the end of Pizza Delivery after he make spongebob cry

I like how Abby never even tells Ellie that she killed Joel because he killed her father... Like wtf

I don’t think I’ve seen Charlie tear into a game this much in a while

Imagine John Wick where he goes through the entire movie killing mobsters but at the end he spares the guy who killed his dog.

Game: she was pregnant, you must feel even worse Me: Oh shit double kill

"Its ok Sub-Zero, I forgive you. -Scorpion 2009

You’d at least think Abby would have shown a little mercy after Joel saved her life, but no she ain’t even got that 💀

Imagine god of war but kratos spares zeus and then goes home to play his guitar

It's sad that Arthur's horse had a better death.

The flashbacks between Ellie and Joel were more emotional than the present storyline especially when Ellie finds out the truth

Basically the main theme of the game "Revenge is bad,except the villain can have it"

Imagine Kratos finally finding Zeus, and NOT killing him.

Imagine if Tony Stark didn’t snap his fingers and had shawarma with Thanos

My favorite part was when abby said "it's abby time" and dropkicked Ellie out the window. Truly the game ever.

I think the main issue is that Abby was absolutely shoehorned. I would've been okay with a few playable segments but they hammered you over the head with her. Even gave her the most exciting and interesting sequences of the game to Abby instead of ELLIE ! After 7 years, Ellie felt sidelined..

Imagine the Bride in Kill Bill after she’s kills all of the Deadly Vipers she gets to Bill the architect of her family’s deaths and she like “you know what Bill? Revenge is bad so I’ll leave you alone.”

Can't wait for The Last of Us 3 where you play as the cousin of the soldier that killed Sarah and you have to kill Tommy

70% of Naughty Dog QUIT the company after Uncharted 4 released in 2017. Including TLOU's creator, Bruce Straley. We should have expected this garbage. Hitchhiker Druckmann just tried to pull a Konami and pretend like he was the one that created everything, he ignored Amy Hennig and Bruce Straley entirely. Your review is the best on the internet Charlie.

Imagine after Arthur's death you continue as Micah

TLoU Part 3: Some random NPC goes full John Wick trying to avenge his dog ellie killed

Ellie: kills basically everyone is about to kill main antagonist Ellie: woah I was about to lose my cool I'm sorry

If Ellie never went after Abby the second time, it would have been a way better ending

The game is not about revenge being bad, but about perspective, breaking the cycle of hate, and dealing with grief

I'm still mad Ellie and Dina didn't acknowledge the horses' death. SHIMMER DESERVED BETTER

I started to like Jessie and then thirty seconds later he's dead. And then i forgot he existed

The best part about tlou2 I thought was the flashback to Ellie and Joel at the museum. That whole part was great.

Finally someone says the truth. The graphics, combat and set pieces were amazing. Everything else falls flat completely.

Imagine not killing the icon of sin because revenge is bad

I can't wait for The Last of Us 3 where Ellie gets beaten to death with a lacrosse stick in the first 2 hours of the game.

So immature that people instantly assume you’re homophobic or hate that joel died if you say the game is bad

Normally, I like angry Charlie, but this isn't angry Charlie. This is anguished Charlie.

I don’t know... Having zombies in a golf game is a little too ambitious for me

I love how when Charlie starts talking about how beautiful the game is, the camera starts glitching around the environment, prolly some comedic timing

As much as I want to disagree, I just can't... especially the way Charlie perfectly describes all of its problems. TLOU 1 was pretty much flawless in its story and TLOU 2 did NOT live up to those standards... maybe they really should have stopped at 1.

Imagine Lee finding Clementine's kidnapper and then letting him keep her and The Walking Dead game series ends like that.

Imagine Price having a hug with Makarov in MW3 instead of killing him

My favourite part was when Abby said “We are the last of us part 2 Ellie”

I think this game was too ambitious for its own good. The separate narratives converging and the shifting of perspectives were both interesting ideas but their execution was lacking. It would have been better if the story was told chronologically, alternating between Ellie and Abby, instead of reaching the climax then rewinding three days. I get that we were supposed to get the gratification from revenge and then realize that the cost was greater than the fulfilment, but I never felt bad for killing Abby's friends because I didn't get to know them first. I also found it impossible to connect with Abby's friends during her section because I already knew they were dead. The only death that impacted me at all was Manny's, and that's no coincidence because we didn't see him die hours ahead of time. Also, I know they were trying to draws parallels between Joel/Ellie and Abby/Lev but I just didn't buy it. Joel and Ellie bonded over an entire year during a trip across the U.S. and it took them a while to even be open to caring for each other. Abby hangs out with Lev for less than 3 days, abandons the WLF that helped her survive for years, and is saying stuff like, "You're my people!" That just wasn't believable and didn't really work in my opinion. This franchise is a prime example of "less is more." Part 1's story is not nearly as complex as Part 2's. There was too much to remember/care about in the sequel. The original (and Left Behind) were tighter, more focused stories that were much easier to connect with. All that said, the leaks spoiled some of this story for me before launch. I still played it twice to experience it for myself in context. I'll never know how I would have felt about this game if I went in completely blind. I'm not sure if I would have liked it more or less than I do now. That's my take on the story but everything else in this game is fantastic, so I can't give this game too low a score either. However, since the main selling point of this game is the narrative, I can't give it a very high score either. I couldn't agree more with 55%.

I can’t decide what’s more pretentious: The Last Of Us 2, or IGN’s review of The Last Of Us 2.

"You can go zeus, just leave" *kratos*

They realized the story had very little actual substance and hastily covered it up by being as grimdark as possible so it’s impossible to actually care about the story, which distracts you from it’s lack of substance. It’s genius. Just randomly kill off 2 of the only likable characters (Joel and Jesse) for Shock Value.

Hearing Charlie talking so passionately about this is genuinely inspiring

Basically if the Punisher forgave the people who killed his family. "The Forgiver"

Absolutely legendary how the scooby movie has a higher rating than this

"revenge bad but not for abby" TLOU2

Imagine John Wick killing everyone except for the guy that killed his dog

The way that they killed off Joel is like if Obi-Wan got killed at Mos Eisley by those thugs

"The only thing we learn about Manny is that he loves his dog and he says 'Pendejo' a lot-" absolutely KILLED me

To be fair they mentioned Jesse when ellie was gearing up to leave on the farm after Tommy arrived.

The "revenge is bad" angle doesn't even work with this game because the person who gets revenge gets to walk away with a loved one, whereas the person who gives up on it loses everything.

Imagine Luke being killed by a woman whose father was a Stormtrooper on the Death Star when it blew up.

The last of us seriously did not need a sequel

Imagine if Kratos helped Gaia up Mount Olympus to go give Zeus a hug because revenge is bad.

I don't think I've EVER heard so much heat and anger in Charlie's voice.

“The real revenge was the friends we made along the way.”

I'm surprised Charlie didn't mentioned the unwanted sex scene on this game

The fact that there isn’t a single character that dies to a zombie in a zombie apocalypse game is crazy to me

Imagine playing through the game expecting an epic death for Joel, only to have a girl kill him with a Manscaped Lawnmower 3.0 that she got on sale from charlie's sponsor.

Don't let people gaslight you into thinking the game is good now

"You better close widows tonight cause your letting the revenge in" 🤣🤣🤣

Imagine this. The game starts of with you as a Abby, the story is framed as a revenge story of finding who killed her family or whatever, just some basic plot that is not uncommon to games. Joel and Ellie aren't mentioned at all. For the first section, all of the gameplay is with Abby. The Last of Us 2 is framed as a story completely different and independent from the first game, fooling the player the Last of Us is more of anthology series on survivors in the post-apocalypse rather than one whole story. You learn more about Abby, and become more attached to her character and past, as you have to Joel and Ellie. You play through like 5 hours of normal exploring, piecing together clues and following a trail of this mystery man who killed your family. Then, you come across Joel all of a sudden in the wilderness, work together to survive a horde. Hopefully making you think "Pretty cool that they did a cameo for Joel from the last game" but think nothing more of it. Then he introduces himself, and the story plays out as it did in this game, with both protagonists killing each others friends and family slowly, hurting characters you've built relationships with and cared about the whole game(s). I think that framing provides a more gripping story about revenge and actually teaches the lesson of it clearly, seeing as you may have actually cared about the the characters before they died. And this way, you actually empathize with Abby more, rather than just hating her outright from the get-go.

This isn't a sequel. *this is a million-dollar fanfiction*

Abby: "You took everything from me!" Joel: I dont even know who you are...

The sudden transition to a Manscape ad and the mention of "nose pubic hairs" was somehow smoother and more coherent than half of the transitions between scenes in the game.

the gameplay aspect of the game is amazing in my opinion, I love the stealth and such. But the story is NOTHING compared to the first game, and it was honestly the first game to thoroughly piss me off at the end.

Imagine if one of the random Storm Troopers that Han Solo killed had a kid that wanted revenge. This is tlou2

Idk how the writers thought it made sense for ellie to go on a murdering rampage in Seattle and when she got to abby she just didnt have the balls to kill her

Joel in #1: must not tell anyone who I am trust no one Joel in #2: hello group of strangers it's me Joel bash my head in with a golf club

Still mad about how this game turned out. Does anyone else remember Henry and Sam. They had 1.5 hours in the first game and their deaths were DEVASTATING!!! It feels like whoever wrote these new characters had never made a connection with another person before! Not to mention the lazy guilt trips, and even lazier attempts to make Ellie the bad guy.

Imagine if the Arizona ranger with the big iron on his hip let Texas Red go

Imagine playing hitman and killing all the NPC's but leaving the target and calling it a day.

3 years later and Charlie is still right

55% is extremely generous

The Last of Us Part 3: Hundreds of characters are seeking revenge for every person that Ellie and Abby have killed.

You know a game has fucked up when Critical releases his longest Moist Meter to date

my biggest problem with this game is that treat you like a fucking child with the story and it's themes. I get it bro, I'm supposed to feel bad for playing ellie and killing a dog. You don't have to hold my hand and tell it to me like i just got out my 4th grade english class

nah cus what if ellie said "its ellie time" and then ellied all over abbys friends

Imagine the Punisher finding the people that murdered his family only to sit down and eat a picnic with them.

Imagine if Thanos got all the infinity stones just to not snap his fingers.

''it feels like it was written by actual amateurs'' i mean i wouldn't call neil druckmann a professional

He sounds reaally passionate about this one

I'm just saying if it was Ellie who died Joel would've beat Abby to a pulp before tossing her into a horde of clickers then proceed to wipe out the Wolves.

Ok, I'm very openly gay, and I said I didn't like the story, someone still called me a homophobe.

There is something seriously wrong with people who liked this game and I don't want to interact with them in any way.

i actually loved lev, lev was honestly one of the only aspects of the entire game i liked

Imagine Taken if Liam Neeson found his daughter after torturing and killing all those mobsters but then decided to just go home and let his daughter be a sex slave because he realized that “revenge is bad.”

"I did not want to see a sequel. What they did wrapped it up perfectly in the first." THANK you.

Joel's watch only had one hole in the face fir part one, and now that he has a second daughter, it's reflected by a second hole in the watch his first daughter gifted him. I love it

I was tired of big streamers just backing up tlou2 to go with the flow, I'm happy after seeing this moist meter, charlie never disappoints

Imagine if Clementine went to confront Lilly about kidnapping her friends from the boarding school but when she got to Lilly’s boat after aggressively and brutally murdering every single associate of Lilly, she said “Nah it’s cool you can have them.” And left.

That one "journalist" saying this game is comparable to shindler's list. LMAO

I think they forgot that Joel was the best character in the game. They thought they could create a good character anytime but they didn’t realize that they already peaked.

The bar scene was actually part of a story trailer promotion they’d dropped before

This game literally makes you forget you are in a zombie apocalypse

A Korean streamer broke his copy of the game after jole getting golfed scene

One of the best rants I have heard in a long time. And well deserved. After I watched season 1 of the last of us without playing the games, I couldn't believe what I saw and knew I had to play them. The first game was incredible. This game was the opposite. Thank you for this rant, even though I'm almost 3 years late.

A disappointment that lives in the shadow of the first

When Jessie died I didn’t even know he died until like 20 minutes after

People waited 7 years for this. I won't say anything else.
