Anyone else think the story should have ended at the farm? That would have been a better ending imo to finish the game on. The epilogue felt long and drawn out by that time.

The one thing I had a bit of a problem with story wise was with Tommy. After Joel dies, he doesnt want to go after the ones who killed him at first. I feel like he went to protect Ellie. Yet at the end in the epilogue part he expects Ellie to go and find Abby alone with god knows what could happen to her. And when Ellie doesnt want to, he acts like a schoolgirl who just got dumped by her boyfriend. It was just kinda absurd. Maybe the shot he took to the head changed his personality. I dont know. 

I prefer sadder endings, so I like the ending we got, but I absolutely see your point.

Tomy was a killer as Joel was, and Ellie was. Remember the first game when Joel said he played two sides of the war. Nobody is a saint in the game. Tomy continues the cycle of hate and violence and Ellie was in two minds about it. Its the path that Ellie was going in. He also knew that he was in no state to fight after his injuries and would take months if not years to recover, or maybe never. To be able to track down Abby, the kid, the infected and any left over WLFs, Scars and any other groups there are out there he would need to be in top shape. Tbh it was probably just a set up to finally settle it between the two protagonist or antagonist (however you want to see it) and closure for Ellie.

But yeah bittersweet. I still liked the ending though.
