I STILL maintain that it's a mistake to have this series focus on Joel & Ellie instead of other characters/aspects of the setting.


Most people subscribing to HBO haven’t played TLOU. The Joel/Ellie story is the only thing of value to bring from the game to the screen!

The cast continues to get better, I still think adapting Ellie and Joel’s story is a weird choice.

 

I'm genuinely perplexed at what they would adapt from TLOU that isn't generic zombie stuff if they didn't adapt...the actual story of the game.

Well like I said on the first page... most of what makes TLoU special as a game series is taken for granted on prestige television. I don't see any reason why this is going to be any better than Y: The Last Man. It's a great comic and that show is fine but a lot of the novelty is lost in transition to a different medium.

The practical effects work and set design in The Green Knight was phenomenal, so this makes me very hopeful on this front.

UNTRUE.

 

Mainly the pacing and the intersection of gameplay and theme. I dunno that I’ve missed a ND launch for a non-remake Naughty Dog game as of Uncharted 2, maybe?

 

I tend to talk, think, and be the most critical about the games I enjoy the most, and Naughty Dog games are a pretty strong intersection of that.
