Whether revenge is bad or not isn't really the message, since tlou2, just like the first game, isn't making a moral judgement on the decisions characters make.

Which is why the player isn't given a choice, much like the first game. 

I think the direct message revenge is a never ending  cycle  and just leads to more pain and suffering. like if abby didn't want revenge she would have not lost many of her loved friends and  same with ellie, basically meaning revenge is bad which the results are clear as day in last of us 2. In the end ellie realized that killing abby won't help heal her pain and revenge is not good. 

Whether revenge is bad or not is you colouring the meaning of the actions taking place, which again is the reason why the player is not given a choice in the final decision. The choice you as a player would've taken defines how you view revenge (in a holistic framework of what revenge is etc) during a sequence when the main character finally accepts the limits to how she is dealing with her trauma.

Ellie most assuredly isn't make a moral call either.

I wish ND would make that rumored/teased space IP or a new Uncharted :(

I think they are making the teased space ip and Last of Us part 3, someone else is making Uncharted, more than likely Bend Studio.

Didn't Bend confirm they're working on a new IP? I'm confident TloU3 and a new Uncharted are in the works though. I'd like the sci-fi speculation to be true too, but I'm good with anything.
