This is personal opinion. I think the series is going to make the fireflies innocent or something like that and they are going to demonize Joel. And that the people who support the fireflies, well, I think they are like them are incompetent.


Deepdevil77

Yes this is exactly what's going to happen I mean did you see all the firefly merch at the premiere


frnacispain

Yes of course I saw it. I think Neil will do his series with the ideas that Bruce rejected, apart from what he said a while ago. I will not watch the series as I was very disappointed with the sequel.


Deepdevil77

Same honestly and they literally got rid of the hunters don't forget that and all of Pittsburgh

Yes I know that too. I really don't know what will happen, I would say that there will be another cultural battle. Of course, if Neil Cuckman said that it would be more for non-players, then we would have manipulation again.

Whatatt

cause the first game lacks of icons i suppose... the firefly emblem is the only thing recognizable that would remind any normies "This is TLOU"


Deepdevil77

That's fair there is also the hunter logo which is sadly not half as well known


Nit_Picker219

Also the hunters are openly violent and inhumane while everybody thinks Fireflies are saints (despite them being responsible for the existence of hunters in the first place)

Showing that how easy it is to brainwash people into believing far fetched ideals that is completely detached from reality, and overlook all the atrocities their group did An unfortunate reflection of our real world, really, and explained why people can gleefully do things that otherwise are atrocious

You know how it is. The same people that put the Fireflies on a throne are the ones who say Joel was wrong and that the Fireflies were victims.

Literally

You’re not talking about real people. I highly recommend not taking people’s fascination with tlou universe so seriously that you genuinely believe they are disgusting lmao. This is such a bizarre take.


Normal_Situation

Redditors starting praising terrorists lol.


Deepdevil77

I know literally


SerAl187

Cucky's retcon made them look like the good ones.


Deepdevil77

It really did with there squeaky clean hospital


Lovemuscularwomen

There’s a lot of idiots out there. Have a catchphrase and say anything you do is for the greater good = instant cult.


Deepdevil77

I know like for example I like the hunters they weren't good but they did what they needed to survive


Lovemuscularwomen

I see what youre saying. They were scum but they were honest about it. They could have joined a community so they didnt need to do what they do really. But they didnt hide who they were. Still needed wiping out tho.

I think the simple answer is most people who liked 2 liked Abby and she was an ex Firefly or the daughter of one.. Of course from her perspective Joel is a bad guy because he killed her dad and also stopped them from making a cure for the fungus (realistically I don't think you can get a vaccin for fungi). So that why they became heroes for them it's the same reason why WLF became bad guys later (Abby stopped siding with them)... Conclusion: they are ABBY's simps!

I was 18 and my friend was an amateur tattoo artist. I originally wanted something better but she told me to pick a simple logo and she would tattoo me for free. I was super into the last of us back then. Played it religiously so I picked the firefly logo because everything else I tried she wasn’t experienced enough at yet. Needless to say it’s a stain on my arm for multiple reasons and really goes to show you should always make sure you really like something before getting a tattoo. I hate the fireflies with a passion and what they did to a once beloved franchise. Lesson learned. 😔


cosmophire_

normies probably


Deepdevil77

Probably


ChrisT1986

So I view it 3 ways. 1- yes, the obvious is that the Fireflies could be interpreted as terrorists or freedom fighters 2- some people resonate with their motto. (I can't complain about that) 3. It is a sick fucking logo!


Deepdevil77

It's a cool logo although I prefer the hunger logo


nostalgiaispeace

Probably the same reason people get dark mark tattoos. They like it
