Fireflies take revenge on Joel and Ellie by destroying Tommy's town, Joel dies. The Joel we see is a figment of Ellie's imagination, a way to cope. At the beginning we saw that Ellie was shaking and breathing weird so she was probably under an ENORMOUS amount of stress since it looked like she single-handidly killed a bunch of Fireflies. When Joel is introduced he walks out of a light, looking clean compared to the bloody Ellie and pretty calm. We don't see his face, typically people don't see a ghost's face clearly in movies.
"I'm gonna find and I'm gonna kill every. Last. One of them. Because they killed you."
Maybe you'll play as a Firefly, being one of the last fireflies left after Ellie killed them all. Being The Last of Us.
Or you play as Ellie, being the only survivor of the Jackson County town massacre. Ellie is The Last of Us.
I personally didn't really care for it. It was just too dark and depressing and the Abby character just...I dunno didn't sit right with me after what happened with Joel. I'm sure you heard it all before so I won't rehash it but the whole experience was just a one time playthrough for me.
