I have to go with Carson.
It's a tremendous story. I enjoy the open-ending(ness) of how Ellie and Joel's potential conflict is (un)resolved. I really don't want to see a sequel to that story. Some stories are better left untold.
However, I think there are plenty of other stories to tell in TLOU universe as we know it. I would have loved a DLC of Ish's tale (I thought the DLC of Ellie's pre-story sucked), but looking forward...Joel's story between --SPOILER BELOW---
the death of Sarah and 20 years later would be cool to explore. Or the story of the Fireflies' birth. Or a completely different narrative involving trying to rebuild a community a la Tommy at the power plant. Or maybe even a story involving being hunters would be cool. There's plenty to explore aside from Ellie and Joel.

I thought Left Behind was fabulous.
TLoU is lightning in a bottle, and ND's chances of replicating that magic is slim to none. Move on.

You know what, I like what you're saying. So often something is forced. And I did like the "twist"/open-endedness. Much like The Lady and the Tiger (short story we read in high school). And without harming the crux of the story (Joel and Ellie), there are MANY stories to cover, like the brothers you run into. I'd like to see their story leading up to before they die.
But I was aware of some quasi-leaks. I guess my implied question was more about whether anyone could confirm anything. I think, if done right, Joel and Ellie wouldn't be ruined. And besides, I'd like to see if/how the cure is found or society moves on. Worst case, I could do some fanfic or something haha.
