McShea really can sound like a moron at times

His misinterpretation of Joel in TLOU is pretty bad; I'm not sure how he thought some of the things he did.

Yeah his assumption that Joel might have had drug dealings before and that's why he's coming home late is just dumb, there was nothing to suggest Joel was that shady. Tom clearly didn't get the character or understand him very well.

I personally think Joel is one of the best videogame characters I've seen. People constantly praise Ellie and while she's good and all, she's very predictable or repetitive for 3/4 of the game. Joel is a much more nuanced and conflicted character who gets a lot of nice progression. You see him go through a lot throughout the game and how it shapes him

I didn't find Ellie all that interesting in TLoU. I'm not sure about Left Behind which seems like it should really flesh out her character, but TLOU was very much Joel's story.

It's nice to see these opinions, although I very much do love both Joel and Ellie as characters, I find that The Last of Us really is his story and that he is a little overlooked compared to Ellie. However, Left Behind gives a hell of a lot of context to the core game in regards to Ellie, it really does open her up as a character.

Nothing outside of my own imagination. But my goodness would I love to see a ghost or something, anything unexplainable, just anything to give me hope of an afterlife. You know? The fear of my death and lack of existence has constantly been at the back of my mind for the last 4 fucking years. It constantly makes me feel like crap. I wish I could let myself believe in some type of spiritual purgatory, it would be so damn relieving. So yeah, no ghosts or weird shit from me.

It's all energy, which can't be created or destroyed or some shit like that. Combine that with "time" which we have no understanding of and the dimensions that we can't perceive, and you have more than enough reason to believe in all that stuff.

Honestly such theories as those are my only hope. As small or as inconceivable as it is, as long as some form of my consciousness lingers on I'll be happy. Furthermore, Bannana, I know there's no afterlife, or at least not in the sense often glorified by all types of religion. It's the lack of purpose to nature that haunts me, we often say to find our own purpose. But why? No matter what I do, I'll end up at the exact same destination as everything else supporting a consciousness, and with that in mind people will often say it's the adventure that matters and not the destination. But if the destination destroys the adventures and rips it out of existence, leaving you in a void of nothing, then the adventure really doesn't matter does it? Well, at least not to me anyway.

Well it doesn't matter what the destination is. Have you ever been unconscious? Just imagine that for eternity. After my first operation I can say that I'm not afraid of death. And when my time comes I welcome it.

If you were to spend eternity in heaven, it would most likely turn unbearable after the first 10,000 years.

Everything you experience while unconscious is produced by the brain, being dead means the death of the brain. So no, it wouldn't be an eternity of dreaming. You don't seem to understand me however, I'm not scared of nothing. Death will destroy my entire perception of the world and I'll no longer exist in any form, so I don't fear what I can't possibly percieve. I do however fear what it means. Furthermore, as I said, if the destination wipes out the adventure then why does the adventure exist? It's nothing but a creation without meaning, we are all nothing but a coincidence with grandiose self-worth. That is what disturbs me. There is absolutely no point to our existence. We're nothing but little tiny blips on a big radar of nothingness, we're constantly trying to understand what the radar means. But we'll either kill eachother or be wiped out by other means before we even come close to understanding just 0.1% of the universe and its nature.

stay off the drugs son

I've never taken heavy drugs, I don't even drink alcohol. These are just things that haunt my thoughts when I heavily reflect upon my life, and it creates a very subtle but horrible tinge of depression that I'm constantly looking for some form of information or a possible epiphany to relieve me of my rather depressing thoughts. I'm just looking for a purpose to live, and distracting myself from prolonged self-awareness to avoid these thoughts is the best I can currently do. But sometimes I relapse, like now.

Get on the drugs, man.

I expected that as a response, still funny though. Copious ammounts of sugar, caffeine and numerous other common day stimulants are my drugs. Furthermore, they're too many as it is, all of them subtly effecting my perception of life. Plus when I was taking sleeping medication I kept upping my dose, eventually resulting in urinary retention and suicidal thoughts. So yeah, my addictive personality probably wouldn't blend well with the majority of heavy drugs out there.

@solidfish30: your mom and grandmother aren't gonna be around forever so you need a serious income for when your on your own, that's why your freedom lifestyle isn't gonna work and you have not offended me at all im just trying to get you to understand this

You do realise we have backups in case of emergencies right. If my mother dies under the age of 60 I'll have a million dollar payout, plus I'll inherent everything. Now I'm not saying my plan is bulletproof, but it's pretty damn solid, I've thought this out pretty well. Well, not just me, but my mother too. Like I said I'm incredibly grateful to her, I'm an only child, and my father died when I was 3 and a half. So my mum has dedicated her life to making mine as simple and easy as possible, and once again, I'm eternally grateful. So, you may dislike me for my luck, and you could call me spoilt. But to me that is a little trivial, I'm a well rounded person, or at the very least I try to be and I help in anyway I can. In general I'm as selfless as I can be, and I'm pretty happy to be living the life that I currently am. Of course there will be road bumps, but nothing I'm not confident of being able to handle.

@solidfish30: so basically what I got from this is, im not spoiled I got money from my uncle for doing nothing, and Im so upset by death im just not going try in life. Grow a pair bro people have it so much worse than you do in third world countries believe me everyone has to work or else your not gonna support yourself its just a fact

Why should I have to work to get money? Why shoud I have to sacrifice the only thing I have just to fit into society? I understand how society works, and I respect it, but I also hate it. So I'm sorry if I've offended you, but I am in no way hurting anyone, and am choosing to do what I want in life. Hell, I'll more or less be completely independent if my plans go through, and I hate relying on a government institution to fund me. So, as far as I'm concerned, you really have no right to judge me. I try my best not to judge anyone, and look at all situations logically. Also I'd just like to add that I don't think of myself as intelligent or especially educated, there are many things I learn on a daily basis and I am still very young. I will inevitably gain new life views and find appreciation in things I don't currently. Of course assuming I live a long healthy life.

@solidfish30: I find this description extremely irritating, and if you're not just straight up lying for your own enjoyment and making people that do this unwillingly look like mooks, you are a portion of the population that doesn't deserve the money hard-working people earn. This is appalling.

Why should I work hard for money, I have different beliefs to you. I don't live for society, I live for myself. I don't harm anyone in the process, and am setting up my financial situation so that I'm not relying on an institution like I currently am. I live in Australia and am getting paid by the government to do a business and administration course. I don't enjoy it, but I get freedom to follow my interests and I'm always trying to better myself as a person. Either way, sooner or later I'll be living off rent money, so I won't even be dependent on an institution to fund my lifestyle. I don't know how you percieve me, but I don't think of myself as anything special. I'm just lucky, and my goodness am I grateful to my mother specifically for supporting me. Me, my mother and grandmother all support eachother, all of our pay comes together to fund our lifestyle. Furthermore, as I said we are currently in the process getting a constant stream of rental money. We're planning on selling our house and buying two seperate properties with a renter already in line.

So I don't understand how I irritate you, for one you have no actual context of who I am as a person. You know absolutely nothing about me, in fact you're outright judging and generalising me. I'm not too ofended though, it is difficult to convey tone and emotion through text, I try my best to articulate myself, but I can see how I might come across in a smug manner.
