You might not have played the game but you are spot on. No other piece of media is as guilty of this as TLOU2. Ellie literally travels hundreds of miles and kills hundreds of people on her path to revenge, then I’m supposed to believe she has some epiphany during the final fight and she decides to not kill her target??? That target being the whole reason the game exists??? Totally ruined it for me.
You might be sympathetic to a recent video essay from Door Monster’s Kyle who definitely has a bone to pick with TLOU2 (and other recentish pop culture hits)
The Last of Us 2. I don’t know, I haven’t played the game yet
