Fucking spot on. This game had me tearing up a few time threw out like Elli beat that guy in the face with the machete the emotion was so raw and real. This is when she lost the last thread of innocence she had left. From this point on in the game her personality changes. I’ve tried to be as manly as I could be throughout the whole tear jerking experience, but when they really rolled down my face was the last encounter with the firefly’s leader. First I was like, “oh fuck, he’s going to hand her over.” Then seeing him driving seated alone in the car almost confirmed my fears. My mind was racing “like where’s Ellie, I know he didn’t do it.” After seeing her in the back seat a wave of relive came over me. I mean I was emotional to a point, But that’s not what got me. It was when it pops back to the seen with the firefly leader, after shooting her in the stomach. She’s begging for her life on the floor. “You’ll just come looking for her again”. And then he finishes her off with a single gun shoot. That’s when a few tears started to fall. And once more when he lies to her at the end, and you could see it in her eyes that she knew. This game has done more for story telling in video games than any game I can remember in the last 30 years.  I’m looking forward to what Naughty Dog has up the sleeve for us next.
