The world of The Last of Us Part II doesn’t just reflect Ellie’s grief — it carries it. This video explores how the game’s environments shift with her journey, and how the world around her seems to decay, mourn, and collapse in tandem with her.

This is The Architecture of Sadness — where broken buildings tell broken stories.
