Near end of the game I wanted all the characters die in horrible death.

the truth? near the end of that game i felt like something in me had died...

 

[squarealex]

I loved that adrenaline but I can see the abym at the same time

It's a 4 year old game, hell it's getting a remaster even, cmon with the spoiler stuff folks. Don't report my posts in the Tomb Raider I-III Remastered OT as spoilers, lol... Op you're sick though.

 

[The Fuzz damn you!]

Oh… NeoGAF is an incel forum now?

Fuck off with this shit. You can appreciate the brutality of the moment and the respect the creators have for the psychologies of the characters, sure, but to non-contextually “love” it? Nah, save that shit for your therapist.

 

[Carmen Winstead]

Feel you on that, OP!
Also used to do that to the wife after a long & stressful day of work. Keeps the heart pumpin.

Can't do it no more though because she's gone for good now she said. Wonder why she left me for that geezer teacher.

Weird take.


That being said, by that point I liked Abby more than Ellie though.

I felt that too. She gives an awful first impression, but I find her a lot more bearable in her part than Ellie, which is... A very unlikable character.

 

[Topher]

That's pretty common. My parents liked me more when I was little too.

 

[MagiusNecros]

Yep. Exactly. Wouldn't surprise me if they chose the name Abby since the characters is just muscle(all Abs). I feel like the overarching plot would have been better if Abby was a RE3 Nemesis kind of character that was a more advanced form of the Cordyceps virus which could easily explain why they are a hulking mass of a person. Game seemed to want to push a very poorly written revenge story. And if the theme of violence is bad was the point I'd much prefer a Incredible Hulk game instead. Lots of destruction only to be left with sadness and regret. Unlike the Hulk though the characters are far from being an angry and scared child that wants to be left alone.

The plot you get is just a post apocalyptic world filled with a bunch of terrible people. In the long term I think the mushrooms are gonna win the long game. It's rather curious when you get down to it. The virus enhances aggressive behavior and both characters are so narrowly driven towards revenge that they may as well be infected already.

It’s been awhile, but didn’t Dins have it coming?

 

[Del_X]

Shit story with shit plot convenience and I'm tired of dweebs putting on rose-tinted glasses. Pregnant idiot Mel opting to go get shot for Ellie's "character" development is awful. Spending like 45 minutes looking at shit in a museum for an extended "playable" cutscene is garbage. Let's see what else - "oh yeah I guess I won't kill you now lol."

Druckman is a hack.

 

[Saber]

Thats the type of intelecto dementum Cuckman cause on people.

Either is "you all sour", "you're problematic" and other name calling if you disagree. See if this shit happened to GoT or Days Gone.

 

[farmerboy]

"Love" might not be the right word OP

Thank you

It's human nature (and not necessarily a positive aspect of it) to find satisfaction when a character gets what one deems to be righteous violent comeuppance.

Having said that, I don't think Dina deserved that kind of treatment, so, no, I didn't love it.

 

[Putonahappyface]

Do you also love that scene in American History X?

Which one?

 

[Slimboy Fat]

I get the impression this game appeals to people whose mental state is not entirely normal

Sony: Lets remaster those deaths.

Meanwhile.....

Meanwhile.....

A corpse should be left well alone.

 

[BaldingAshCrimson]

Someone needs to ask Dina's face model, if she went to high school with OP. There's some history we are missing out on...

Anyway, no, but I am one of the few people that was/is 100% on Abby's side
And didn't endlessly whine about my "fictional daddy" getting killed by a "T slur", that wasn't actually a "T slur".

[Boss Mog]

The only scene I love in that game is when the pregnant girl says: "You're a piece of shit Abby and you always have been".

 

[balls of snow]

The scene before that was cathartic though. Im sure the number of people just letting Ellie murder Abby over and over again was in the millions. Once we got that out of our system, do we understand the futility of it all.
Godamn Druckman

The disappointment of this game still hurts to this day

 

[Danjin44]

The only scene I love in that game is when the pregnant girl says: "You're a piece of shit Abby and you always have been".

I still like to know genius idea was it to let a woman who’s that far in her pregnancy outside thats filled with infected and psychopats.

Don' underestimate pregnant women.

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

It was excellent, as any other scene in the game. I don't understand why people hate Abby so much when she's basically a female Joel, with the same cycle of tragedy, shady life, mistakes, and redemption arc

 

[H4ze]

I played TLOU 1+2 this month for the first time, back to back and they amazed me.
But because of the story and cinematics, the gameplay is utter shit and I wish I would just have played them on easy.

Well, the fight was between Abby and Ellie, and Dina did come at Abby from behind with a knife...etc So, it's only logical that Abby would want to change the bone structure of Dina's face to the point where she'd need plastic surgery to be recognizable...etc.

Besides, this is the third time Abby lets Ellie live.
1. When Ellie came after Joel and Abby's crew had Ellie on the floor.
2. When Abby and Lev are contemplating what to do with Tommy and Ellie and Jess come storming in.
3. The fight scene above/linked in this thread in the OP

I finally found the spoiler tag option after 2 years, nice and hidden under "more options". And I only saw it by going on a desktop. Wouldn't have found it via mobile the way I usually post.
My infraction points should be waved.

"No, Eiknarf! You posted a spoiler on purpose!!"

No, I didnt. The spoiler option should be more visible like in other message boards where spoilers are expected
