I live in Seattle and adored playing TLOU2 in my home city. Was a total trip playing set pieces in areas where I used to work downtown.

I could get nitpicky about a few areas that didn’t really make sense (and I’m still not really sure where the Seraphite camp was in act three given geography or what our actual aquarium looks like inside) but given how much I enjoyed the game I didn’t really care.

In theory, the Seraphite island is supposed to be Queen Anne + Magnolia after flooding separates them from the mainland. But you can read lots of internet posts talking about the issues with that, like https://www.reddit.com/r/lastofuspart2/comments/1kzicba/figu... .

Magnolia used to be an island in Puget Sound. They dumped fill into the area of Seattle we now call Interbay to connect it to the mainland where Queen Anne is.

It doesn’t make sense for Queen Anne to be an island, it is connected by a ridge to the rest of the mainland. The topography doesn’t support that notion.

Thanks for the info about Magnolia and Interbay. I did not know that!
