Naughty Dog creative director Neil Druckmann confirmed that Ellie will be the only playable character in The Last of Us Part II. Earlier the developers said that Joel is alive.
What do you think about this decision? I don't ask for the character choice or something like this, but, as for me, the ability to switch to another character (no matter, Joel or someone else) for a mission or a part of the game, even short, is great. We have this feature in the original TLOS, why don't they make it again? And I miss Joel...
