Before you comment: 1. "There are barely zombies" yes because they said IN show they gather in cities and for the most part avoided areas where zombies showed up. It's 20 years in. If you want dumb survivors, watch Walking Dead lol 2. Yes I added a sin instead of minusing it on two occasions That's my bad. Spent weeks on this video but I tend to always miss a sin on the sins videos haha. Thank you for pointing that out though! 3. Don't come in here with that "wokeness" comment. You'd probably be gay too in a zombie apocalypse. 4. I like the show! Watch the first 30 seconds of the video before you think otherwise lol 5. Yes I realize Ellie in TLOU2 came from Wyoming NOT Wisconsin. I reused footage from my sins on TLOU2 and forgot about that fact. Still though. Ellie traveled 1k+ miles without issues, and that's thr total point of my argument lol

Hank wanted to live, not survive. He did other things which wouldn't have enhanced his survivability, but setting the table for dinner, indulging in nice food, picking up hobbies etc. meant that his psyche wasn't destroyed in all them years. It was a fully-fenced secure compound with clear warnings that trespassers would be shot, traps, clean roads.. was idyllic. The grass wouldn't have made a difference because had anyone seen the base then they'd deduce it was inhabited and protected.

What does it for me is the that their first idea wasn't to draw some fluids, run tests, figure out and see how the fungus reacts to her and reverse engineer a cure but rather to cut her open and see what they could do. It's even dumber when you realize she's the first immune they've had, possibly the only one they'll get for the foreseeable future and the first response is "We think she developed immunity from her mother being infected with her and we also think she has hormones that make the fungus think she's already turned ergo let's cut her open and find out."

One thing I want to say about the "Fire Fly/ Fed" alliance over Ellie is that it seemed obvious to me that the Fire Flies were going to use the cure to grow their own position and power not to mass produce for the masses.

Incorrect. Ellie is the only known immune person in the franchise. No other immune people have ever been confirmed or referenced to (other than that moment when Joel lies to Ellie and tells her there's an entire group of immune survivors). You're talking about a misconception about one of the tapes found at the university. It states that "in past cases", but it was referring to past cases of infected- not immune; followed by "The girl's infection is like nothing I've ever seen. The cause of her immunity is uncertain." in the same recording.

To be honest, Joel removing the baseball bat from him should have been a sin because that caused him to bleed out more . If you have a object in you, it's better for you to keep it in so you don't lose any blood. That's why it's smarter to keep it in then bleed out like he was in the show.

No fecking way an overweight prepper is solo lifting the valve and some how putting in the bolts at the same time. It's physically impossible. Those pipes need to be 10k rated (10,000 KPA) and those are also 300 lbs, it takes three people to move a pipe and they don't keep may spares, one breaks they just order a new one and it's there in less than 24 hours.

With the infected slowly approaching Tess, the show runner explained that the infected react with the intent of spreading the fungus. If their target acts hostile or attempts to flee, it will use more force to transmit (running and tackling). If the target isn’t resistant, it will react more calmly (walking and…kissing I guess?). But either way, it will accomplish its goal or die trying

Stitching is to prevent scars and foreign matter from entering larger wounds. Unless she went in and sewed up the arteries, reconected the walls of his organs and sanatized the whole area, all she did was gaurantee internal bleeding. Especially without a drip tube to allow for blood puss etc to flow out. Honestly it would have been better to just allow the wound to stay open and monitor for infection

I figured there would be sin's for the weirdly placed bite marks on ellie, riley and anna. I get that the struggle scenes with the sprinters are chaotic, but if you notice, none of the infected get anywhere near where theyre ultimately bitten. Also, something to keep in mind. Earlier in this episode you make note of the bite chart in the background of the Fedra Building where the little boy was killed, how it shows you the infection rate is dependent on where you were bit, right? Face/head is 5-15 minutes. Arm, hand, torso 5-12 hours, and the legs being 12-24 hours. Anna was bitten on the thigh in her fight with the infected, so when you take into account the info-graphic, there probably wasn't enough time for Ellie to become exposed to the fungus through the Umbilical Cord the way everyone thinks. However, it is how she became infected. Anna killed the sprinter with the switchblade first, then immediately used it to cut Ellie's umbilical cord after finding the bite. She didnt sterilize the blade, so, I'd say she probably got infected that way.

I also love the conversation they had both in game and in the show about giving her the gun and keeping themselves safe with it. Super responsible dad move even though their situation was fucked

I feel like Ellie’s “Cure” wouldn’t honestly change a thing about the world and the world they live in. It’s not like the Infected don’t go out of their way to attack her, we see that multiple times that regardless that she’s immune, they still go for her. With the amount of infected there are, the only thing they need to worry about is just not being Torn apart which Marlene even tells Joel will happen to her. The thought of a Vaccine is a great thought but it’s meaningless when the best it gives is False hope

@tallest4eva

Жыл бұрын

That's incorrect. It is already established that most infected die after a month or so. Only a small proportion of them continue to evolver to become clickers and possibly bloaters. Therefore the cordyceps need a constant supply of infected humans to maintain their population. If a vaccine can be created and mass manufactured and disseminated (a gargantuan task in any scenario), then without new infected, the infected population would slowly dwindle, and potentially collapse after a few months. It just becomes a matter of attrition. Right now, with new people able to be infected growing their numbers, the attrition works against humans.

Another thing I can't wrap my head around. Why would you do a deadly operation on the sole immune "specimen". Normally, they would at the very least try gathering samples in a non-intrusive, nondeadly way. Tissue samples, blood samples, urine, and anything that can be analyzed while leaving the source of the sample alive, kicking, and able to provide more samples. I feel it would be doubly true in this case, as they wouldn't have a second specimen to analyze after that. Would I be in the same shoes as Joel, I'd probably end up doing the same thing, if not for fatherly instincts, at the very least for not wanting to "sacrifice" the sole freakin' immune person known. But yeah, your point is good too. It's very unlikely a cure would bring any infected back to humanity, as pretty much everything is replaced by fungoid tissue, meaning that the actual threat to people's life is not solved. Unless they find a way to eradicate every infected, their numbers still mean that the world can't really recover, immunity to infection or not... Scientists' time would have been better spent finding a good fungicide than a vaccine in this case.

the creator said in an interview the infected don’t have to spread the infection violently if you’re not trying to stop them from spreading it. since tess wasn’t fighting back the infected just calmly spread the fungus to her through her mouth. as for why tess didn’t fight back my theories are either she was in shock or trying to stay calm to not get attacked or the cordyceps was already taking hold of her brain and limiting her movement.

The initial task was for Joel and Tess to escort Ellie to the building we see Tess die in. Considering Marlene was injured during the gunfight and she was wanted by the military it made more sense to task two smugglers she worked with in the past to get Ellie to the firefly group. Obviously nobody could've anticipated what would happen to that group or predict that a reasonably small trek would turn into a cross country journey that would take months.

One thing ive always found odd in TLOU, are the fireflies, not just one thing they do but, their entire group. Theyre shown in the show and the game to actively attack and provoke save zones, to be essentially making things up as they go in terms of their plans regarding researching the infection, all with a barely existing leadership role. Its amazing they lasted as long as they had, but it really makes me question just how likely they would be at not only making, but testing, further testing and distributing a vaccine that they dont even know is plausible to work or exist. Like, had they decided to work with what remained of the government, CDC and military rather than putting what remains of the US population at risk with their attacks and destabilization, they probably would have been far more successful in not only finding out why Ellie was immune, but also in attempting to recreate her immunity in other test subjects, to then figure out a proper vaccine or even just a counter measure/suppressant using the mutated strain of the fungus (think the virus suppressant Antizin from Dying Light)

If I’m not mistaken, the generator Bill has runs on natural gas (how he got his stove going), so he wouldn’t be using watered down gas 10-20 years later if he tapped into a gas line. If he was truly a “prepper”, he’d have that and not one that goes off gasoline. I have a Generac installed for our house that kicks on automatically when the power goes out (so nothing is interrupted/flickers). It runs off of natural gas - only thing we do is check the oil regularly and make sure we have parts on hand in case of anything going awry. We were able to run it a week straight during the ice storm a couple years ago without ever worrying about gas … powered the whole house, allowed us to cook, stay warm, run hot showers, and house our neighbors and their daily needs. Definitely the way to go for such things. I’ll never go back to a gasoline generator. So, thought I’d put that out there, because not a lot of people know that there are generators (like ones hospitals use) that are big and run off a natural source that one doesn’t have to scour all over for when it comes to residential use. Considering Bill’s stove was already tapped into a gas line (as we saw with the flame on the stove), it only makes sense a Generac equivalent is what he has setup to power everything that long. Definitely feasible as long as one maintains the unit.

I think the most impressive thing about this show is how much impact some of the characters that only had a brief appearance had on the show. Ibu Ratna (the Mycologist from Jakarta) made such an impact that I was still actively thinking of her even by Episode 9, the Ellie's FEDRA instructor from Episode 7 made me want to learn more about the day to day structure of the organization. The kid who got shot by Ellie in Kansas city made me think about the consequences of mistakes made in fear, and him begging for his mom and freaking out over his legs in the moment felt like such a realistic reaction. Marlon and Florence and their short little scene up in the mountains felt like such an oasis of comfort, and I found myself wanting to see more of them even though I knew in the show it wouldnt make sense. Anna of course made me wonder if she was part of the same group as Frank, as they were escaping around the same time and Frank mentioned a large group that was thinned out. All of these characters were only in the show for 5 to 10 minutes at most, but they added so much richness to the world and story of the show. I've never seen a show utilize minor characters in such a strong way before.

i just now realized what made left behind even more heart breaking was that when ellie realized she was immune she had to kill riley

@@LangkeeLongkee yeah Joel and Tess do go outside regularly. I wouldn’t be surprised if they rarely went too far outside of the Boston QZ. Joel does have that one stash at the grocery store or whatever it was. But I highly doubt it was that far away from Boston.

@@runningthemeta5570 they did though. Because Joel and Tess didn't meet with Bill right outside the QZ. They said that in the game. Bill doesn't leave his town, the place where he takes Ellie right before they go into the town is where they meet him. Right outside the barriers he put up is the furthest he's willing to go, Tess and Joel regularly go all the way to a town that has enough infected traffic that Bill has enough to use as a defense and others that he clears out cause it's even too much. Including clickers. I'll give them a pass on the bloater. But nothing else.

@@LangkeeLongkee again. It’s still not that far from the QZ. In game Joe says how he never went to Lincoln before the event of the game. If Bill still lives in Lincoln in the show, it’s only about a five hour journey. So again, still not that far.

@@runningthemeta5570 he said he never went in

Bill was powering his generator from Natural gas. Remember in the show he went to the Gas Plant and charged the lines. Those lines may have been how he was able to do so much.

This is really well done....i just finished the season..its cool to see ur perspective about the series and its awesome to watch such a breakdown ...esp in a long format...really long....lol...something to listen to whilst im at work tmr

Mr. Adler changed after Joel saved Sarah and put her in the truck with him and Tommy. There was no way to tell how long since he’s been bit, but after they got in the truck and drove off, you can then see him running out of the house and attacking a neighbor that was outside as Sarah watched. That could have been within the 5-15 minute mark he was bit.

48:12 you can kindaaaaa argue that Clickers have somewhat of an armored head, and since Ellie could’ve stabbed the neck where the spinal cord would be (now mycelia). Imo it would sever the connection of the mycelia just like the spinal cord would, if you were to get stabbed there, resulting in killing or immobilizing the clicker.

Its also cannon in the game to shiv a clicker in the neck for an insta kill.

@@Bigmiquimby yea, that’s what I had in mind, since in Pt 1 & 2 you see both Joel and Abby, stab clickers with the shiv at neck level or in areas where it would harm the brain directly

@1:07:36 Penicillin is actually supremely easy to manufacture and concentrate; both on a small scale and a large scale. It does require some special chemicals, but nothing that couldn't be acquired or manufactured. The hardest of these in a post-apoc situation will likely be ethyl acetate. But since it's just more fermentation, and you have to ferment for the penicillin, I think we got this when SHTF. All you really need to make that is ethyl alcohol and some vinegar; but this stuff is manufactured now on industrial levels pmuch everywhere, so they wouldn't be hard pressed to find some, it lasts basically forever when properly stored in cool-dry places away from light and oxygen sources. For starters, all you need is a small set of bread and time. The bread does need to be inspected after growth for the correct fungi and no toxic fungi, but that can be basically ensured in a controlled environment aging room. You're looking for a blue-green color. More thorough tests should be done, but these are more complicated. Penicillin was first extracted without these tests, however, so it can be done safely. All you need is one from the set, this starts the culture. Once you have a culture, just keep the culture alive and you don't need to do the bread step again. To do this, all you need is plant matter, but higher density calorie is better. Just pull seeds from the culture, start fermentation runs, strain, then extract the penicillin using the ethyl acetate. Honestly, for this group of starving demi-cannibals, the hardest part of the entire ordeal is going to be the bread step. But there are other potential starters of this mold and really all it takes is just one and you can feed the culture from dissolved grass clippings.

When I saw “when SHTF” I knew you were OG. You’re not wrong re penicillin, I had a friend so worried about post Brexit shortages he learned how to make his own fluoxetine. Crazy times

1:14:00 I can actually explain the building going up in flames like that. Even a well-maintained building will age, and the wood will take on a quality known as Matchbox wood. Matchbox wood doesn't take long at all to start burning. I should know. Unfortunately, my childhood home burned down. It wasn't even five minutes before the entire house was up in flames, so I can only imagine how fast a 20-year-old neglected building would go up.
