The Last of Us - Ish & the Sewers

- The Sewer community of Pittsburgh is one of more compelling side stories told in The Last of Us. The way we explore the area to learn about what happened to the people there is such a great way to get us immersed into the world, and it certainly leaves a memorable mark. To prepare for the upcoming release of The Last of Us Part II, Dustin tells the story of the Sewer community, and that of the man that put it together. Hope you enjoy!

Ish the one of the most intriguing characters I’ve *never* seen lol
I see what you did up there
Same
Fr
Fr that’s so tru I hope we get to see him in a later Last Of Us game
@@diegonin5181 wow, clever.
This is why bill always say CLOSE THE DOOR.
Lmao yep
Yeah
He may read Ish’s story and learned from it before us😂
Lmao
HOLD THE DOOR
HOLD THE DOOR
HOL' THE DOOR
HOL' THE DOOR
HO DA DOR
HODOR
I kinda want Ish to have his own game, start us off in the beginning at sea, he clears out the infected form the sewers, tries to make his own base, then gathers people, sadly watches it collapse over one mistake and then see what happpens to Ish and Susan as they take the kids somewhere else hoping to find safety somewhere, maybe they somehow ended up in Jackson helping out everyone.
Ish and Susan should've been the stars of The Last Of Us 2.
It would also be cool if they could explore other parts of the world, like if Ish went back to the docks and they repaired a boat. Then went to south america or something like that and they formed a farm/town there.
This is what Last of Us 2 should of been about. Perhaps have Ish and the survivors are shown and have a rival with Tommy’a group. Could of had a 3rd group from fireflies that did successfully create a vaccine but were powerful with tanks and helicopters and unwilling to share anything.
Ish and Tommy could of made a peace to team up against the remaining fireflies and could of redeemed Joel lying to Ellie. Could of been an epic story game sequel instead of the crap we actually got
Didn’t they shoot the kids in the room that said “they didn’t suffer” on the ground?
They should make last of us games that focus on these characters like something like this " the last of us story's behind "
I'd really love if Ish, or someone else from these notes throughout the game, would show up in the sequel. Would just be a nice moment to make these notes feel more important.
I'd like that too! Naughty Dog was apparently going to put a note from Ish in the Left Behind DLC, but ultimately decided against it. Just goes to show that Ish has even made an impact on them! Lol.
Thanks for watching! :)
@@SquatchGamingChannel Thanks for making these! Love your work.
No, they think that it would be too much coincidence. Of course that was in the time of part 1 when they still knew how to write.
feel more important? NOT having closure is one of the biggest fears one would have during an apocalyptic event. The fact that you dont know what happens with Ish, is exactly the point.
@@ot4konExactly my thoughts. The world can’t be that small. It’s be too much. David and his group made sense but another coincidence like that? Nah
"they didn't suffer" breaks my heart every single time.
This was one of the sadest things in the game apart from the opening scene. I know it is only a story but Kyle and Ish's story and community is one of the part of the last of us which really struck a cord with me. What Kyle had to do at that moment with those children, knowing what the outcome was going to be, to be in that situation in real life, I don't think I could do it.
I’m replaying the game right now and I’m just hoping Ish, Susan, and the kids are okay, they have to show us them in the next game
@@TheMastermind729 not even the main characters get a good ending in "the last of us", i'm afraid you wont be seeing them again :/
Ish, boris, joel, and tommy would be an unstoppable force
I think you forgot Bill lol
3 of those people are DEAD and one is handicapped.
@@blasfuentes6295 bills more of a loner
Boris?
@@wellingtonalmeida2662 it’s a similar story told by notes in part 2, Abby solos
Huh I always thought there was a letter I missed that concluded this story, I guess some things can never be answered. I hope these stories continue in the last of us 2.
Sadly they never were... dangit
@@SquidCena the Boris the archer story was quite good, as well as the boat murders. This was the best story though
Ish is the protagonist in the beautifully written, post-apocalyptic novel Earth Abides by George Stewart. He becomes the leader of his community and it’s effort to repopulate. If you like Ish’s story in TLOU, you’re sure to enjoy his story in Earth Abides.
Might've been an inspiration for Ish in the game.
@@mattj2081 Neil Druckmann had an interview years ago where he said that’s where he got the name from.
Ohhh thought it was a shortened name from Moby Dick’s Ishmael. Being he was on a boat.
@@nerdmommy7114 I actually believe that, I am kinda foolishly believing that Ish is actually Frank(ish)
I would be a nice tribute to have an Ish cameo in the Last of us 2.
Do you really want to play TLOU2?
Ya I would want some more notes about ash surviving
@@Dervitox Yeah man, I have seen this types of bangwaggoning before. Internet gets mad and everyone hates one single thing. But I want to experience this game for myself and forming my own judgement.
I'd like to see that too! I read before that they were going to put a note in the Left Behind DLC, but it didn't feel right, so they took it out. Just goes to show that Ish even made an impact on Naughty Dog!
Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoyed! :)
@@Dervitox I won't, but I want to see the full story. Even after I saw the leaks, I want see everything about the game.
Evidence that Ish is in Part II:
-While exploring the aquarium, Abby and Owen find the yacht that Max’s family came in on. Ish had tendencies to seek refuge on boats.
-According to Ish’s surviver’s note, he, Susan, and a couple of the kids made it out of the sewers. The family in the aquarium is a father, mother, and two boys; perhaps they formed a makeshift family and the boys considered Ish and Susan their new father and mother.
-Max’s murals in the aquarium are very reminiscent of the murals in the sewers.
-the tone in the dad’s writings is similar to Ish’s optimistic tone
I’m not 100% on whether or not the dad in the aquarium is Ish, but it could theoretically be him.
Your theory just made my whole mf morning. Yes. This theory NEEDS to be trueee
That…
actually makes a lot of sense.
i honestly doubt it is him. The drawing of Ish and Danny in the classroom confirm he is dead, given the fact that one the little room where u get the wooden plank (for Ellie) there are 2 clickers that look like the drawing. (Body armour with blue police attire). Im playing through this exact section right now ;-;.
watching further in the video, im a little confused as to who the 2 clickers are.
@@Mr_M281 You originally think its him until you see a note outside of the sewers in one of the houses that explains he got out with at least one other person.
I can't imagine the disappointment the people felt for that one dumbass who left the door open and I always wonder what that person felt realizing their mistake
Walking through all of the sewers and seeing those dead kids I cried like a baby
R.I.P Danny and Kyle ... One of the best story characters I've ever heard of but never saw in the game ...
I found the whole story very sobering and moving. The game is basically presenting two questions to the audience, either survive for yourself and be alone or open yourself to others at the cost of potentially losing someone you care about. The profound thing about it is you can make two very strong cases on which option is better but you sacrifice something in the process.
The story of Ish gets me every time i play the game.
This segment really reminded me of the vaults in the fallout series
Very true. I love environmental storytelling like that. Deepens the world in my opinion!
Thanks for watching! :)
And to think without the notes being left we would've completely overlooked such a unique side story
It's sad to think that some people missed out on the story since they missed out on the collectibles, but leaving them dotted around was a perfect way to tell the story! I hope Part II has more "collectible" side stories like this!
YESSS
@@SquatchGamingChannel Ya remember Boris. That was awesome.
I have a feeling that ellie might meet ish, Susan, or one of the kids ish saved in a future last of us game. As ellie gets closer to the person, they'll slowly start to open up, and just maybe, they'll bring up ish, or Susan. Honestly I doubt we would meet ish himself. He'd probably be dead. I think it would be one of the kids.
Dude I was playing part 1 remake today and instantly fell in love with the notes left by ish.
That story was...beautiful.
Honestly it may have a bad ending but they lived life well.
And that is all that matters
There's a moral here somewhere.
Sometimes Helping really is costly. Ish opening what was originally his untapped resources to help other people is what led to the downfall of his hideout.
Yeah, I guess that's the price of being able to open yourself to love sometimes. I find it so sobering because the game is presenting two scenarios where you stand to gain while potentially sacrificing something. Should you spend your days looking out for yourself and being lonely or open yourself to happiness while having something to lose.
Ish sounds like a great guy wish we got some from this.
I took the time to read notes and get the lore on my recent play through, how cool would it be if in part 3 we meet Ish, who makes vague references to what happened in the sewer, but only players who took the time to read the note in part 1 will fully understand. God please give us part 3
Ish returns, where's my shorty?
I love the idea that he comes back and is like “yo wtf someone took my gun!”
I replayed the game a while ago and found the Ish notes and they were so interesting and entertaining... sadly I could not find them all. Thank you for making a video of it.
What’s interesting is that the story doesn’t have a definite ending. Maybe Ish and a couple survivors made it somewhere. Maybe they all died. Maybe one kid survived and remembers what Ish taught him, and carries the memory of the community with him as he grows into a leader of his own community. Maybe it drove Ish to become a villainous bandit leader. There’s a bunch of what ifs here, given what Joel and Ellie have gone through it’s not hard to imagine a thousand different stories from this.
I'm worried that Ish, Susan and the kids ran into the hunter sniper and his men just one block over from his final note.
I doubt it. Based on Ish's original first note you find on his boat, the events of his story happen a few months after the initial outbreak. Maybe a few years at most. So Ish and his people are long gone by the time you arrive.
It's hard to say how long the hunter snipers and his men have been there, but I'm sure it's long after Ish, Susan, and the kids have left.
I always thought that it was a small group of a few families, not a whole community as there wasn’t loads of body’s, and most the zombies in there were the ones that got in, not people in the group who got infected.
Mmmmm not really. I’m sure all the INFECTED (not zombies) were those who were bitten and turned. There are quite a lot of clickers, meaning they’ve been infected in the sewers for a few years. Not to mention the 10+ stalkers after Joel hits the trap door.
So it did become a somewhat whole community.
Literally the same drawing was shown in the show. That's pretty cool.
Been around since Hotline Miami, glad to see The Last Of Us now.
my favourite story in the game, was glad to see a very slight nod in the hbo series
I was happy to see the drawing in the show. I was lowkey hoping we would see Ish himself!
we’re getting ish tonight, I just know it! came back to this video to thank you for sparking my interest in him so much
Bruh, I want this to be a dlc. It'll probably be a base management DLC but it'll be good to see the rise and fall of the sewers
This easter egg in the show made my day
Your videos are always a treat to watch. They have so much effort and emotion clearly put in them. Too bad not many people see your work (in CZcams numbers). Keep up the amazing stuff man, stay strong maybe one day the algorithm will pick you up.
Thanks a lot, man! Support like that will hopefully get me there some day! I've had a taste of what it'd be like if the algorithm did pick me up, and it was mostly positive, so hopefully that's good news if it ever happens! :)
I felt so bad for Ish reading his story, he should have his own DLC story.
I loved the way you narrated the story with all the sound effects man! Congrats🖤
I loved this story so much. I was so shocked when I found the first ish note in the sewer
great video man, always loved the small connected stories the artifacts presented us with
Answering on all the comments here, wow! Love your dedication and thank you for another great video, Dustin :D
I read all the notes and I always found these little details immersing in video games
When a character only told in notes, is more sympathetic and intriguing than the sequels main character.
I loved this! So in depth and a gripping story
Need a side story gameplay on ish
Good work man love videos that explain things in games espically TOU your video came up while browsing through videos keep up the good work
This is a fantastic video and I hope it gets a ton more views, likes, and comments after tonight's episode.
It's games that have lore like this that make me want them to come out with more. I hope a last of us 3 maybe might come out. Great games. R.i.p my dude Joel 🙏🏼
Wow just wow this video was beautifuly put together.
Ishs side story and the little grave just outside of tommys dam always hit me hard.
This one character we never met, I cared more about than just about every character in Part II.
Episode 5 brought me here thank you
This specific part of the story was done amazingly well. It doesn't show you out right what happened to this group, but it does show you just enough to piece together what happened. It's my favourite side story but already done. Stuff like this leaves room for DLC where you play as Ish and try to get as many survivors out before everyone dies. Or even an online wave type survival mode with friends.
I knew I wasn’t the only one who was curious of the ish lore
More please! Really love the game story videos
Working on the next one today. Hopefully it comes quickly! :)
Thanks for watching!
Every time I see the Ish & Danny kid's drawing, all I can see is two vault dwellers :')
this is the story I've been looking for I couldn't remember what game it was in it's been eating at my mind your years
Ish should have his own game "the last of us untold stories"
Amazing video, keep it up.
Dang it! I only missed one note, and that was kyles note, about being trap. Thanks for the video!
To me this was one of the most truly eerie parts of both games. All because someone accidentally left a door open…
Damn such an iconic mystery from the masterpiece! That picture which is “ Danny, Ish: Our Protecters “ is so creepy, sad and also mysterious 😶😩
Even playing this game when it came out many many years ago I remember this story line and the man named Ish. I only comment cause watching the HBO series now here in early 2023 and it's so good (that 3rd episode with Frank & Bill made a grown man cry). In Episode 5 Joel and Ellie stumble upon this and you just see a small glimps of Ish's name and here I stumble upon this video a week or so later. Funny how things like that happen. Good synopsis on the whole Ish story line. 👍
This series of notes were my favorite
Pittsburgh is over 300 miles from the ocean. How was Ish “at sea” and then beaching his boat near Pittsburgh?
I'm hear from Delirious channel ( watch his series there great) and there was a point in the game where he read ish story and I had to drop by to make sure he didn't leave anything so I can see if the hero lived
Those same kids probably grew up to become the residents at the neighborhood that Joe and Henry encountered with a sniper in the attic.
Really good vid dude!
Nice video! A great resume!
I just want a series that goes through the multiple survivor notes/stories that’s in both games.
There might not be many, but listening to it would be better than looking up the notes on the wiki everytime you get in that mood ig.
Coming here after seeing episode 5 of the show - glad they nodded to him
Wow Nice summary . Well done.
Anyone here because of the HBO show? 🥲
Our boy Ish
Ish's story would have made a great dlc
You finally did a last of us video! yay!
Heck yeah, man! Hopefully a couple more too! Won't really have anything new to say about the stuff in the game, but it'll still get us excited for Part II! Thanks for watching! :)
If we learned the fate of Ish in The Last of Us Part III thatd be so dope. Imagine if the guy and Susan are still alive and managed to build another community. Or plot twist they founded a Firefly cell.
The next last of us should be Ish’s story. Make it open world. It begins with him crashing the boat. Eventually Ish finds the sewer and from that point on that would be like your base or camp if you were in red dead 2. You scavenge for supplies and meet people to add to your camp along the way.
I fully agree , I wish Naughty Dog would tell full story about Ish , and where he left to ? And how many years ago he left those notes
I always liked to think that ish was the sniper when you get out of the sewers
That means he's murdered by Joel
That doesn’t make any sense.
@@superderfmen he got out y'know when you gotta get to the sniper guy?
@grieving wolf it’s a year later but due to the hunters rules of not allowing kids around because quote, “Survival of the fittest.” Turns out in one of the notes Ish left behind is that he decided to become a protege to the kids, becoming more of a father figure to them. Hoped that this made you into a hopeful wolf instead of a grieving wolf for a few days :)
The Opened Door: _"I End this man whole career"_
Seems a bit late, but I like it. Good vid man
Neil Druckmann wanted to have Ellie discover a note from ish in (whatever city Joel was injured in sorry my memory is a little foggy.) But he thought it would be too coincidental so he left it out.
I didn’t pay much attention to the notes when I played thru years ago… but how did Ish get from the sea to Pittsburgh?
Ish would make for a great DLC
Never read the note where Ish got out up until now. Thought they died.
Nice!!
just got the platnium in this game and what I love his on my 100% collectable run I got so invested in the ish story line its so side what happened to the people of the suburbs and the sewers if u read all the notes really sad:/
Amazing vid
Thank you very much! Happy to hear you enjoyed! :)
Had to come back here from the show. I played the game but forgot the story!
This was nice
Can you make a video on the notes to Jules or Boris’ story from The Last of Us 2?
I hope we will see traces of Ish in Last of us series
Just noticed a C++ on the bookshelf...Game designers having some fun. 7:16
Omfg they referenced him in the show!!!! Cameo!
Its good if they put ish's story before the intro
anyone checking this out because of episode 5
There must be more hidden characters in this game
One door, one door they forgot to shut and left open and everyone almost died that’s crazy
his story is so sad wish we would meet him
Hope you make more of these videos, makes me love these games more.
Only have a few more that I can make on the series, I think. Everything else is pretty straightforward. Lol. Thanks for watching though! Happy to hear you enjoyed! :)
