I'm about 40% of the way through the game, I think? We went to the school with Bill to get a battery from a van that had crashed into it. Then there was a charming scene in the car, in which Ellie perused an inappropriate magazine, and then some guys tried to ambush us and we ended up crashing. That's where I am.
And whoops, I had other things I wanted to say! I was so terrified that you might spoil me that I forgot about them in the urgency of correcting your impression of where I was.
Yes, Ellie is brilliant. I missed a conversation with her - I was on a school bus and noticed, looking out of the window, that she had the talky icon above her head, but by the time I reached her, as I hadn't realised I could have vaulted out of the bus window and gone straight to her, it was gone - and I was extremely distressed. I had faith in Naughty Dog's AI companions before playing this game because they're so great in Uncharted. You're never happier on your own than you are with a partner in a Naughty Dog game, which I think is really nice.
(Ahem. Edited because I had a closing bracket and no opening bracket and it was really annoying me.)
