The Last of Us 2. I don't know, I haven't played the game yet

You might not have played the game but you are spot on. No other piece of media is as guilty of this as TLOU2. Ellie literally travels hundreds of miles and kills hundreds of people on her path to revenge, then I'm supposed to believe she has some epiphany during the final fight and she decides to not kill her target??? That target being the whole reason the game exists??? Totally ruined it for me.

"Some epiphany" is a brilliant way of indicating you had no idea what the fuck was going on.

Let me ask a different question: How does letting Ellie kill her improve the story?

So, hour zero: Ellie says "I'm gonna kill that bitch."
Hour 40: Ellie says "I have killed that bitch. Damn, that was tight. Like a cold Pepsi, that was hella refreshing."

What message is this communicating to you? What can we learn from such a story?

It's just a video game, dude. Video games are entertainment, not where you should be drawing lessons from.

As a corollary to this, yes there are some learning games, but TLOU series is not Mavis Bacon Teaches Typing.

Okay, my guy, you need to read more books. I mean this in the strictest terms possible. Your country depends on you. America is stuck at a 6th grade reading level, and you're not giving me much hope.
