“Before embarking on a journey of revenge, dig two graves.” this is really the perfect proverb to illustrate The Last of Us 2.

I'm super curious about your comment around Abby being mostly off screen. I feel she was a huge presence from the start in the game but I might be more biased cause I know the ending. She is definitely a main character in the game to the same level as Ellie.

Yes, Abbie is there, but without saying too much (there are spoiler rules to follow) I can say that they have moved things around a bit.

But I have a press conference article out soon where the Craig, Neil and the cast tell more about it. 🙂

I'm really really looking forward to watching and reading the press conference article after. I'm happy you were able to give a sneak peak of what's to come already in this post.

Hey, the press conference article is up now. Mind you, it is a paid article, but you can use a free sample or the referral system to unlock it. It will also unlock for everyone after 4 weeks. They also adress the thing with Abby there. In any case, here it is.

It was a very fun press conference. Pedro, Ellie and Isabela created the "Spoiler Groan." Hilarious. 😂

2 years ago, I wrote: "Heightened by a real-life pandemic we’re emerging from. Our shared trauma is explored in HBO’s live-action adaptation of an award-winning PlayStation 3 (PS3) video game from 2013." Your review of season two solidifies how much I'm looking forward to seeing it.

A great read, Eirik! I’m finishing up season one now, actually. Late to the party, but I will be ready for season two.

Thanks! Had to take it down and republish the article due to a typo that refused to be corrected. But now it's good.

Yes, get to season 2. It's near-perfect!
