about the ending.

A vaccine wouldn't necessarily save the world. It might save a few people from turning but the damage seems to already be done... and we don't even know how bad it is in other parts of the world.

The fireflies don't know for sure that killing Ellie for a vaccine would even work. It was a pipe dream. Even if it did work, only the rich would get the vaccine.
 
Some of my thought on the actual gameplay, and end game spoiler kinda
I seemed to play this differently at times, at first it was all sneaky stealth snake style, i would try and get through without using guns if i could help it. Half way through it was a case of do what ever was easiest to do to get through, if it was stealth, gun fight or just running away it worked for me. At the very end of the game it was more like Joel Rambo, doing what i could to murder those S.O.Bs that had my Ellie. At the end with the Docs I killed the one i had to, but the other 2 wasnt a threat so left them and concentrated on getting Ellie out of there, thought i had done enough killing that day. Oh and Ellie with a bow far more hardcore than wimpering/screaming Lara Croft

...

By the end of the game I had plenty of ammo to take care of the enemies... Even if you're low on ammo, those guys drop m16's with plenty of bullets to waste. I found stealthing that part didn't feel right, it was a time of desperation and action. A gatling gun at that point would be awesome. :D
 
That was one of the main things that spoilt it for me...the ai. The bad guys are looking for you and you alone. If Ellie walked in front of one while you were hiding nothing happened. Apart from that which only happened a few times its was a stunning and enjoyable game.

They should have made her hide by you in some way.

I'd imagine trying keep Ellie as hiding as you are all the time would be a nightmare to get right for a programmer. I think at one point they did have it so the enemies noticed Ellie more but then it just broke the game.
