So far my only real complaint is how F'ing annoying Ellie is. In the game she had her moments, but she wasn't the constant downer TV Ellie is turning out to be. If I were Joel I would have ditched her ass by now. Plus it's just bad storytelling, as Ellie being pretty upbeat despite circumstances is what eventually starts to wear down Joel's defenses and gives the later scenes where she has to face reality and come to grips with just how shitty everything that's happened up till that point really was such weight as she overcomes and pushes through to save Joel. Druckman is already draining the impact of that role reversal and character growth moment.
