Ellie killing the pregnant woman and then covering her belly as she died was brutal. No way to know if those 2 adults were guilty of anything other than being associated with Abby (whose guilt is also open to debate), but the baby was innocent and Ellie panicked and didn't even try to save it. In that moment, she really came across as a mad person on a senseless quest for vengeance that will result in more unnecessary human death. Jesse is already on the list. Death that is acceptable to her as long as she avenges Joel. Hard to be in her corner at this point.
Having not played the game and not knowing what happens next, it's hard to say how I feel about the ending. It's certainly possible that Ellie is actually dead. It seems obvious that we will spend at least a small part of season 3 seeing the world from Abby's POV. The only thing we know of that Abby has done wrong so far was to kill Joel, which was her own vengeance for him murdering her father. She's morally no worse than Ellie, possibly better.
This story is good at blurring the lines between good and evil. I suppose when you play as Joel or Ellie in the video game, it's like you are that character and you live and die with the decisions the game is requiring you to make. You believe that you can charge into dark buildings with potential zombies and raiders because that's how video games operate and ultimately killing a person like Abby is the task you've accepted when you play the game. When you are watching the show, you feel more like a third party observing someone else making these decisions, so psychologically there is a little bit of a difference and it allows a TV viewer to be more judgemental over the character's actions.
I'm also annoying about the predicted 2 year wait for season 3. Not sure if that blame gets assigned to TLOU team or to HBO execs, probably the latter, unless the writers are just really slow about getting the story together. It's certainly not unique to this show but it does kill momentum and this is a frustating place to leave a story in limbo for that long.
Maybe I'll pick up TLOU2 game and play it out on the easiest setting.
