I think you noticed too. I mean, I really like the way they showed Sarah's simple, measured life on this day. A small piece in which nothing out of the ordinary happens. And you well understand, looking at this, that she is not ready for what is coming, and the whole world is not ready.

"Sticking to the game" apparently in the sense that they're keeping the main story but fleshing out more of the things we didn't know. Sort of like getting to see extra scenes that were cut from the game. More like additions than changes. FEDRA is certainly more humanized, Joel has a more personal reason to help Marlene, and the whole of Sarah's day... Oh man the addition of Sarah's day. I'm stoked.

Yes. Gustavo Santaolalla was brought in to do the music for the show, and clearly reworked some of his game music to fit the action of the TV series. The music from the game is now so intertwined with the characters and story that its absence would have left a gaping hole in the show.

I think this feels different from other adaptations because I'm actually excited to see what they're able to add to the story. They nailed the tone of the game, the personalities of the characters, and the CGI/practical effects, so I actually trust them to play around with the sections of the plot that need to be changed for pacing reasons.

ok guys, I want to know your thoughts in 1 of the most under appreciated changes. The relationship between Tommy and Joel. Warning, I ill talk about stuff from the game and something that will most likely pop up in the series as well. So be warned. In the game, Tommy just calls and asks for Joel when Sarah picks up the phone. and later he just arrives with the car and after being your navigation through the city and Sarah dies, he is gone. you don't hear anyone talking about him anymore, only when you meet the fireflies it is mentioned that Tommy was part of it. Then later in the game you suddenly bumb into him. Here the relationship between Joel and Tommy is much more clear and that they really care for each other. And throughout the Boston part you hear Joel Talking about getting that battery to get a car to work so he can go find and save Tommy. That never happens in the game and the only reason Robert is introduced is to give Joel and Tess a reason to meet with Marlene. The series has made the random parts in the story much more related to what is happening. The smuggling thing from Joel and Tess is also much more clear now that Joel meets that guard. And that THAT same guard tells Joel things are messed up around the block and DON'T go out at night while meeting him outside the wall is perfect to keep things connected. Just wanted to know what you think about those changes that shows a much better relationship between what is happening in the world and the reasoning for actions of the characters.

A friend of mine who has seen it all 9 episodes said to me that the story is very respectful to the original story. But at the third episode, the show goes on another perspective. We probably gonna have another point of view ( new characters maybe?) that is based on the notes that you can find in the game. He doesn't tell me much more cause i don't wanted to know too much but i'm very hyped that even us, gamers, are gonna be surprised by some decision made in the storytelling.

Alright. Just found you guys yesterday. Caught up on Haunting of Hill House (patiently awaiting your reactions to the following Mike Flanagan shows), and watched the Conjuring Universe reactions. But I also have a tendency to torture myself. So here I am, watching your Last of Us reactions. Edit: Also, Halo season 2 is much better than the first season if you ever wanted to give the show another shot. I also liked season 1 a good amount, but I'm not a lifelong fan or anything, so it's not as near and dear to my heart. And, uh, not sure if you guys have seen any of them, but the Child's Play/Chucky and Evil Dead franchises (movies and shows) come highly recommended from me. And my profile picture is Tingle from The Legend of Zelda, so you know my opinion is valid. Edit 2: Totally agree about the HBO stuff. They're s fantastic studio. Even their DC shows are great. I also like a majority of the the DC movies, but the shows are just something else. Can't say any DC movie has made me cry, but I CAN say that Doom Patrol has made me cry a lot. And other shows like Peacemaker, Pennyworth, and Harley Quinn are pretty great, too. Also, Netflix's DC shows are pretty good. The Sandman, Sweet Tooth, and The Deadboy Detectives which came out recently.

Hmm, not sure why you said it felt like a lot was packed into the episode, like it was sped up, which is factually untrue. In 1 hour 20 minutes in the game you are further ahead in the story than we ended here (you're generally in the diagonally leaning skyscraper at that point). They actually paced it slower on purpose, adding a lot more like the start explaining the fungus, Sarah's day itself, more detail on the Fireflies and Tess etc.
