Also, in the comic book Ellie's like "oh arcade cool!" and then in LB she's like "Oh, arcade! cool!" Idk, that's why I asked cause it felt like a continuity error reading it after I played the dlc. And when we go back to it in LB there are no bodies. Well it's interesting too because in the comic in the arcade there are a bunch of dead bodies laying everywhere. Ellie was drawn to the machine in LB because of what Riley had told her about it in the comic (plus, they had turned on the electricity in LB, whereas they hadn't in the comic.) I don't think it's a continuity error or anything. Riley then helps frustrated Ellie to finally "play," it in that scene. Well, in the comic, they find a busted machine, and in Left Behind, Ellie finds another one, hoping it would work this time, but it turns out to be busted again.

Like if the comics were a prequel to Left Behind, then why did Riley explain that video game twice to Ellie as if it was her first time hearing about it? And the same thing happened in Left Behind. In the comic book, it was the first time Riley mentioned her favorite video game to Ellie. It's kind of confusing though, like in the arcade. Like we need to accept star wars prequel trilogy or matrix 2 or 3.

In the end all we can do is to accept that she is gay. They will never make so that Ellie would have a boyfriend because they said that she is gay + making her having a male partner would feel like something of a fan service, not a real life thing. She is gay, and we all have to deal with it.Īs for the future even if they make Ellie reappear in TLOU 2 (if there is a TLOU 2), they will never make her to be in a relationship, because they think that is unimportant. But that is just me.īUT Druckmann already confirmed that she and Riley are gay, so all my previous statements are invalid. I'll go on a limb here: i am straight male that loves girls VERY much, but if i grew up in their world, with no family, no special love or care, little to no friends and then met some boy that would do all those things for me that Riley did for Ellie.well shit i would have probably kissed him as well.

I mean she stole those water guns form general Dickhead (or from somewhere/someone else), traversed entire town full of soldiers and gave up her dreams of becoming a Firefly just to be with Ellie. Well.that went out of the window.Įven when i was playing LB i thought that Ellie kissing Riley was something natural because to her, Riley was the only person that ever cared about her. So that her "gift" wasn't just a giant waste. I admit that i was one of those that hoped she would start a family, have her own biological children to spread her immunity. But if there was no controversial kiss, i would have never know. She is just so not that stereotypical gay character that we see in media these days, and maybe she was even written that way. But with Ellie i just don't get that vibe. I could spot someone is homosexual from a mile away (the way they interact, behave, sometimes even dress). Now this well sound very homophobic of me, and i'am sorry for that and apologise but in real life i have a lot of gay/lesbian friends. And i also never got a feeling that she killed David's men in main campaign easier, because she has no feeling for males, or (like some put it) because she doesn't loves them.

Plus i never got that that feeling that Ellie was looking at that poster with skinny girl in TLOU anyway differenty than she would if she was straight. Replaying LB unfortunately didn't change this view as much as i wanted it to. And to just find someone of the same gender that loves you (in sexual way) in this post apocalyptic world when 60% of world's population is gone.that seems like a long shot.Īnd even altough Sam and Ellie were only friends (well Sam was probably having a crush on her), i never ruled out a possibility that they could have become something more, given time. With Ellie.i dunno.i just have a hard time imagine her walking around Tommy's village, looking for her next girl or having lesbian magasines. I mean Bill is clearly gay, he had gay magasines and i think no one would argue that he is only interested in men. First I never thought about Ellie's orientation to be same as Bill's.

Heck, even Ellie's page on TLOU Wiki says that she is gay! Developers didn't make 180 turn and totally changed her character, they only added something that we didn't now, TLOU was pretty much tabula rasa regarding her sexual orientation so they had some solid fundations to explore that part of her in LB.Īltough i need to admit that i had a hard time coming to terms with this idea. If Neil said she only likes girls, then she only likes girls. So goodbye those theories about friendship kiss, bicurious incident, girls experimenting (altough all those suggestions are valid and real life because some girls experience them all the time) or bi/pan options. Well if creators said that she is gay than i guess she is gay.
