Part 7/13:
The divergence from the game's storyline is stark. In the original, Ellie’s feelings about pregnancy are complex and conflicted. She initially shows a mixture of worry and regret, emphasizing her vulnerability and emotional depth.

Critics argue that this misrepresentation simplifies her character and overlooks the nuanced emotional journey from the game's narrative.
