(Spoilers) Did you missed this post-credit?

[BlackTorito]

After reading an article, it seems like me, and a lot of people presumably, has missed that the Main Menu screen post-credits, it’s actually the Catalina Casino, thus, Abby and Lev reached Santa Calina with the Fireflies.

 

 

I genuinely thought this was The Resort from a back perspective somehow, and didn’t give it too much thought.

I totally missed it, but it kinda ruined my interpretation, in the end it seems that the two are sailing to Catalina Island, where the Fireflies say they’re located and all of that, but i was thinking, what if Abby were to shed her past as a Firefly completely to start a new life? after all, her time as a Firefly and a Wolf has only caused her pain and suffering, but now that it is confirmed that they went after the fireflies, i don't know if i like this better

I thought she had made contact with the people who kidnapped her, they asked where she was and she gave them the exact address and all, moments later she's attacked. But based on this, I guess she actually did make contact with the Fireflies.

It can be confusing if you're not familiar with the Catalina Casino, especially since the resort in Santa Barbara is also referred to as a "tall, round building" in the game. But yeah, Abby and Lev apparently made it to the Fireflies.

I also assumed that but although the buildings matched the mountainous terrain didn't look right to me so it's an interesting theory that looks like it could be right

The way the whole game went, I wouldn't be surprised if the Fireflies shot them on sight.

Hopefully, they can find some peace now. The same goes for Ellie.

I like that she pursued the fireflies, it ties in with her story well, firstly she’s going after what her best friend/lover wanted to do, they were going to leave the wolves and do that anyway, and she’s carrying on her fathers legacy, both Abbi and Ellie were both consumed by rage and revenge for so long, it’s good that she now sees clearly and her life has meaning again, that’s essentially the story, of how both of them overcome their loss and hatred, I was praying Ellie would let her live as she was drowning her, they’d both endured so much, Ellie just wanted to win, she did and then did the right thing by letting Abbi live, it was a good story and a good game.

we all have our own interpretation of the game and it’s closure I guess, but I’m sound with how it all happened, it was essentially a masterpiece, just one players opinion

[snakebit10]

Count me in on one who missed it. It makes sense to me though that they made it. Honestly when I got to the end and she cut Abby down from the pillar and Abby told her about the boats. I was hoping either they all set their differences aside and left together or just wen their separate ways. 

 

Honestly if there is any dlc (they said no plans for dlc) I hope it focuses on Abby if they do. I really don't know were they could go with a sequel. I hope they work on a new IP for the next game.

[Bizurke2003]

I didn't realize that it was Catalina either until I listened to some spoiler podcasts that brought up that fact.

[jdizzle0420]

I wouldn't mind some DLC (I know they said there won't be any)

Spoiler

where it shows Ellie going to look for Dina and Abby trying get to the Firefly camp.

A major game without DLC!? Slightly more interested to play this now.

they'd prob save Ellie looking for Dina or "happiness/love" in LoU Part 3.

It's going to be made. Druckmann said he wanted Ellie to eventually find happiness at the end of her story even though in this world, its hard to find.

 

So that definitely didn't happen in part 2. Soooo part 3. Id also prefer them do more Last of Us. at least a 3rd.

I’m almost 100% sure, that, no matter what happens in 3rd part, Ellie is going to die for the sake of humanity. 
 

She now knows what Abbys was looking for, it’s a matter of time that someday she will do “what is right”, as thats what she wanted to do in the first place. Maybe get a bit old with Dina... and then sacrifice herself, when the time is right? Who knows.

If there's anyone still alive that can make a vaccine.

 

I guess they can always conjure someone, a traveling doctor from Canada or something.

Based on this image thats why I believe a third game would be Abby and Lev meeting the Fireflies and find out they are still looking for a cure, and Abby is like "I know the immune girl and can get her back here" and so Abby and Lev go to find Ellie and bring her back and basically Abby ends up giving her a chance to make her life matter which is what Joel took from Ellie. Third game about redemption, I also feel like Abby and Ellie have a mutual respect for one another and would end up being friends if they had a third game and go this route. And maybe Abby would end up making the same mistake as Joel and doesnt want to give Ellie up cause she cares about her. But I hope they go that route somewhat.

^ That's a really good idea!

Based off the entire game's story, Ellie definitely didn't find a crumb of peace. The game was designed to break Ellie into a million pieces and for her to stay that way while Abby does what Abby does best. She does anything she wants, has no regrets and reaps the rewards. So much for revenge is bad.

She’s wearing Dina’s bracelet at the end (she wasn’t in Santa Barbara) which implies she’s already been to see her and JJ and that she’s heading back to Jackson to be with them. (ND decided to leave out a scene where she takes a toy for JJ with her to make it more ambiguous). Her leaving the guitar behind is a way of saying goodbye to Joel, so I think that implies her PTSD won’t be as bad.

 

I disagree about Abby. I’m sure she regrets losing all her friends, and probably blames herself for it since she let Ellie go.

[Erkawest]

I think that TLOU3 will be about the Rat King's son seeking revenge and hunting Abby down for killing his father.

That's not what Abby is about, though. She had her revenge and it didn't make her feel better. Her obsession with Joel cost her everything and she is still haunted by her father's death – until she meets Lev and Yara. I think the message is pretty clear: revenge will consume you, if you let it.

Sorry but no. She did not have any regrets about killing Joel. Not a single one. She had no regrets when she went after Ellie the first time. She never though 'shit I shouldn't have killed Joel'. No she wanted revenge AGAIN. She got exactly what she wanted, she knew exactly why Ellie did what she did and even in Santa Barbara she didn't make any sincere apology to her or anything. Not even a thank you for saving her ass and most importantly her precious Lev.

I must admit I didn't see the bracelet thing which means you are probably right about Dina. But she didn't 'let' Ellie go because she regrets anything. She let her go because Lev was watching her about to slit Dina's throat. And no doubt if Lev wasn't there, she would have slaughtered all of them without thinking.

Isn’t that exactly what Joel did though? He (we) slaughtered everyone without thinking. I don’t think some people reflected on what he did, I mean, yes, we loved Joel and Ellie and bonded to them so we seem to light off what he did, but, outside of that picture, Joel it’s a freaking monster.

 

Not to mention he blasted an opportunity for the vaccine. And I’m saying opportunity because who knows... maybe Ellie could have died for nothing, and then, Joel could have slaughtered them all anyway.

I didn't say that. I don't think she regrets killing Joel, in her mind he got what he deserved. I'm just saying torturing her father's killer to death didn't fix anything for her, and she knows it. She realizes she can't change the past, but she can still help Lev and Yara.
