you ever think about tommy and joel's profound bond, knowing that they relied solely on one another for support and confided in each other, only to drift apart and remain estranged for many years? it's fascinating to me how they managed to reconcile and rebuild their brotherly connection. considering joel's death, even though they already reconciled and had an even stronger bond than before, sometimes i can't help but wonder if tommy regrets their separation, especially how his last words to joel weren't "nice," and his decision to leave him behind to join the fireflies and go radio dark on him. i feel like these thoughts are running inside his head, so it's no wonder that tommy spiraled into a state of anger and impulsiveness. losing his loving and protective older brother would have had an intense impact on him, leading him to isolate himself from everyone he ever knew just to immerse himself in grief.

ok but this moment is very wholesome because you can feel that vergil really wanna meet his possible future grandkids, and judging by the pain in his voice, it made him think of not being there for nero as he grew up (the same way his dad wasn't there for him and dante). vergil is fully intending to return to the human world to get close to nero once he is ready.

i know vergil has a small screentime in the whole devil may cry franchise but man he really had one of the best character developments in all video games. he lost his mother at a very young age, had a traumatizing childhood and spent it all feeling weak, worthless and guilty by thinking that he failed to protect his mother, so in result he made it his life mission to seek power endlessly while closing himself and his feelings off, becoming completely obsessed with getting his father's power. he convinced himself that being weak means losing the people he loves, therefore he was pushing dante back and refused to let him come with him because he was in fact afraid to lose him just like how he lost his mother, and not because he had no value to him. he knew dante wasn't ready to join him in entering the portal so he made him stay both for his own safety and for humans to have someone who could preserve them from mundus and the other demons. you can feel that his fighting with dante back and forth is just dante trying to snap vergil out of his desperate need for power, and the thing is, vergil is obsessed with power to protect what he has left, his brother.

at the end of the day, vergil finally was able to realize what he was missing from the past and that his true strength comes from his human side. he felt the weight off his shoulder been lifted since he doesn't seek power anymore and he has found it with staying with his loved ones. dante has always deeply cared for vergil and felt the great loss of losing him when vergil got stuck in the demon portal, and years later it broke dante's heart seeing vergil as a puppet to mundus, he regretted not being there for vergil. but he made it right when he accompanied vergil to the underworld, and vergil was appreciative of that and showed it by smiling. for the first time; he wasn't left behind. he was happy that their sibling rivalry turned into a healthy sparring session, happy that he reunited with his brother and happy that he found out he has a son who's as strong as him. i have always felt like vergil's character was judged cruelly throughout the years when he's in fact an amazing character. i'm genuinely glad we got a satisfying closure.

Tommy Miller ~ TLOU // TLOU Part II

thinking about tommy and damn his ending is genuinely so tragic and his future is uncertain. the fact that he spent the entire time mourning the loss of his brother despite making up with him in the first game and probably still regrets abandoning joel all those years before because of what he and joel did. i know a lot of people dislike tommy because of the way he talked to ellie during the farm scene, but his guilt just got better of him and made him react that way. it wasn't cool at all to chide ellie like that, but his losses made him bitter and he saw ellie's refusal as an extension of his own failure. he blames himself for everything and knowing that he himself can't go after abby makes his desperation when talking to ellie all the better. i personally feel that moment made tommy a complex character, after joel died, tommy asked for ellie to be locked up so she doesn't have to be subjected to the path of revenge because he genuinely cares for her and wanted to protect her. the development and the changes he goes through between the theater and the farm scene is very realistic, which is why i feel his frustration was understandable. he had made a great life in jackson and it got ripped away from him. he lost his beloved brother (and probably must feel like he's a shitty brother for not being able to save joel as he was executed in front of him), his wife left him, he lost his eye and can't even walk anymore, he's broken mentally and physically and i can't blame him for being so angry and blindly seeking vengeance, he went from a kind, gentle man to someone who's consumed by bitterness and revenge due to the trauma he endured. i just sympathize with him.
