Watched the finale again….in my opinion, Season 2 on a whole was….good, not great.
Ellie was simply not written well. They write her to be pretty dumb and inconsistent. And for the most part, she’s not angry. She finds love with Dina, finds out she’s gonna be a “dad” (that scene was cringe), she’s generally in a decent place all things considered.
The scene where she’s mad at Jessie for not allowing her to defend the scar kid….was just silly. It’s a war and she doesn’t know him. Why does she care so much?
Also the scar island scene was unnecessary (i know it was cut from the game….unnecessary still)
Also the scene where Jessie was like “ you’d go through hell to find me” and she’s like “yeah i would”…….no you wouldn’t lol. You just left Jessie and Tommy to fend for themselves. You literally turned your back on them. (Which is more in line with the game version of Ellie) but she’s written inconsistently.
It’s not Bella Ramsey’s fault too. Her acting is good (not great), but she’s written like….well….badly.
I like show Jessie better than fame Jessie.
Same with Dina.
And Abby is played well when she’s on screen.
It’s not a bad season….but not nearly as good as the first one.
To be fair tho, the second game is not better than the first so……
