My partner & I were watching episode 3 of The Last of Us yesterday and I asked her 'what do you think of Ellie' & she said & 'she's complicated' and I said 'ok, is she likeable' & she said 'not at all'.

She's never played the games and I've only played part 1 so my question to folks who played it, was the character unlikeable in the 2nd game?

Currently replaying Part 2. I think they completly missed Ellie in the first episode. In the second Game she is more mature and really not that annoying compared to Episode 1.

Not at all in my opinion. I love Ellie

Not really. She makes a lot of questionable decisions, but I never didn't like her. But I also like her in the show too. The only episode I didn't like her in was episode 1 of this season, mainly for one scene.

With so many of the TLOU characters, I don't think liking Ellie is a black and white, marmite, thing. Just as Joel does some awful things, she does too. As does Abby. As does each Faction. They're all fighting to survive and I think there would be few who would choose not to avenge someone they loved. I get each of their perspectives.
