Meanwhile, the Infected make their way to Jackson, raiding the settlement.
Thus, the player spends the first half of the game hating Abby.
This only changes when a major switch happens.
InThe Last of Us Part II, Joel is on patrol with Tommy when they find Abby.
The Last of Usseason 2 switches things up a bit.
Instead of Tommy,Joel is on patrol with Dina when he encounters Abby and the Infected.

Dina then travels with Joel and Abby back to the ski lodge.
Since the HBO series put Dina with Joel, this means thatEllie had to be with someone else.
The Last of Usseason 2 takes a different approach.

After Joel saves Abby, he rejoins Dina in an abandoned building.
Before seeing Abby,Dina calls out to Joel, saying his name.
Abby instantly recognizes this, with her making the connection that her savior is also her father’s killer.
However, his motivation for making this mistake differs in the video game and the HBO show.
InThe Last of Us Part II,Joel and Tommy save Abby from a horde of Infected.
However, a brutal winter storm also occurred at this point.

The Last of Usseason 2, episode 2changes this slightly.
There is no storm, but there is still an Infected horde.
In fact, the Infected are attacking Jackson, with Joel realizing that they need to help.

However, he and Dina realize that they won’t survive the journey back.
However, he dies before he ever gets a chance.
Joel’s torture and death is equally brutal in both versions of the story.
He is shot and beaten with a golf club, although HBO’s Abby takes things one step further.
InThe Last of Usseason 2,Abby beats him with the golf club so much that it breaks.
She then takes the broken handle and stabs Joel in the neck, with this being the killing blow.
In the game, Tommy is part of the events surrounding Joel’s death.
However, he is occupied with something else inThe Last of Usseason 2.
These vines alert the Infected, with the horde heading toward Jackson.
After a slow start to the season, The Last of Us pulls no punches.
Episode 2 delivers all the action we expect and breaks our hearts by the end.
Within the walls of Jackson,Tommy is forced to lead its citizens in a battle against the Infected.
Eventually, the monsters breach the city, killing tons of people.
This entire action sequence is completely original to the HBO series.
