This maturity, according to Mazin, is reflected in her performance and in the way the character of Ellie has grown alongside her<\/strong>. &#8220;They were like my child. And then, you have to let them grow a little and become their own person,&#8221; Mazin explained. This change in the dynamic has allowed Ellie to appear older, complementing the narrative, which explores what happened in the five-year interval.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Last of Us Temporada 2 | Tr\u00e1iler | Max\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GgXa5PZFXx4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The critics have responded positively to the second season, giving the series a score of 9\/10 in their review. <strong>GameSpot notes that the season is a deep exploration of morality, maintaining the quality of the video game adaptation<\/strong>.
