Spoiler. The point where Joel was impaired and as I played as him I could visually see his movements slowing, and his aim becoming shaky it became a very real to me. Also the suspense when he fell of the horse and not knowing if he has succumb to his wounds or not a very interesting experience from a video game. Also during the scene where the player can see the shadow of the doctor who is about to kill Ellie I actually found myself rushing past soldiers to come to her aid as if there was some time countdown HUD in the top of the screen. A excellent emotional story here. I found playing as Ellie very interesting. The entire play style of the game was turned around and I died a lot. I liked it. This company creates video games that have the same weight as a movie in my opinion.

[@GenGamesUniverse]

+Shacoy King I felt with Ellie, it was a lot more challenging but when you got to the final part where you realise what Ellie is going to go through in surgery, that makes it more of the whole "Well guess you are sorta my daughter now" unlike the "You are treading on some mighty thin ice!" part of the script when Ellie tells Joel about how she knows about Sarah.

The Breaking Bad of video games. Addictive, emotional, climactic, consistently good, beautiful character development, fantastic acting, makes you laugh, cry, cheer, and barely any video games (games in this instance being compared to other TV series) provide the same experience as it did once it's over.

31:20 over the years I've watched this documentary many times. This specific scene, the way it hit me in the game, and then watching it here, watching the real life performances of Ashley and Troy, just the utter power from their eyes and expressions, together with the subtlety of expression on their voices.... Oh man, time sits still for many moments with these, it is truly impactful. I was born in 1984 and began playing videogames when I was six. I could hardly imagine back then the soul sucking impact and realism could achieve. And this game is probably one of the all time hallmarks of that. Cheers.

[@anthonyschliesman5582]

That acting scene between Joel and Sarah is actually a good example, not only of pride, but of putting too much emphasis on Method Acting. Stanislavsky (the guy who founded sort of the goals and steps to acting) was interpreted by the American group that came back as being purely memory or experienced-based. They took the emotional and mental side of his work and concentrated on from the inside out, taking memory and using it to back an emotion. What the director here did, and what Stanislavsky ultimately came to the conclusion of and based his teaching on, was working from the outside in. Using action to start the ball of the scene rolling and create emotion, intentions, and difficulties and let the scene play out from the outside actions inward to the emotion. "I need you to strip yourself of all these ideas and hit this beat, and this beat, and this beat..." was very much along the lines of setting the emotional baggage he was bringing into the scene aside and linking the points of the scene together to forward the dramatic action. Sorry for the long description. I'm studying to become an actor and it's just these little tidbits that stick out to me. This is just something I'd really like to see myself doing someday if I every win the lottery of life. :) This documentary was very well done and I hope to see more like this in the future.

[@ChloeDust]

Agreed, about how that scene eventually worked when he wasn't so in his own head, but truly immersed into what the characters themselves were going through in that moment by hitting those markers the director told him to, great scene.

[@tgchan]

I have also the problem of stopping thinking about it... We have been through so much with Joel and Ellie, it is impossible to describe in words. The amount of hard work in this game and the overall effect is out of this planet... So many people, so much talent... Thank you!
