The Last Of Us Part 2: 10 Biggest WTF Moments
3. The Seraphites And Their Twisted Beliefs
It’s hard to pick a particular moment where the Seraphites made us go WTF, as there’s actually a whole load of them!
This crazy religious cult are a huge antagonist throughout The Last of Us 2, and while we don’t find out a whole load about them, we know enough to know that they’re one of the most screwed-up factions the series has introduced.
Perhaps the biggest WTF moment comes early on when you encounter the ‘Scars’ for the first time. Ellie spots a group of these new foes in the distance, stringing someone up by the neck in a park. Then, before you know it, the Scars are stabbing the dude in the stomach and disembowelling him as well. It’s a hugely shocking section, and you quickly realise these are not dudes to mess around with.
There’s plenty more terrible things the Scars do as well. They try to kill Lev just because he shaved his head, and they’re quite happy to ‘clip the wings’ of someone too – which turns out to be code for pinning them down and smashing their arm to bits with a hammer.
Lev reveals later too that the Scars are going against the teachings of their mysterious founder, twisting her words and using it to commit ritualistic sacrifices and ‘free’ those nested with sin (aka ripping out their intestines).
