Yes Joel torturing the guys is a scene straight out of the game. Almost exact. same with a lot of this episode. This game is no joke.

[@brycedecker7142]

It makes me happy that so many people are being exposed to how mature video games can be. There’s still a lot of people who think of them as “only for children” and this show being so true to the game is proving that hasn’t been the case for a long time.

[@annabethchase2569]

@@kennycooper294 Exactly, in the first fucking 30 mins of the game, you realize it's not a kids game because Sarah dies. Disney doesn't do that. How in the fuck did she think that?

21:15 I totally agree. Her acting of emotions is unbelievable good. As a fan of the game I was so scared about the casting cause Ellie is my favorite game character. But Bella far exceeded any of my expectations in every scene

[@cooliostarstache5474]

Yes, all this happens in the game. In fact, this episode was probably the most one-to-one with the game thus far. Phenomenal performances from Bella and Pedro and Scott Shepherd (David)

[@neilbrideau8520]

"Baby girl , I got you." Is the last thing Joel said to Sarah.

[@sergioskills]

Hi Pilar you should definitely give the game a try it’s totally worth it, the experience of playing the game for the first time is like any other, although you have watched the show already you’ll still enjoy the game as much as you did watching the show and you’ll get even more attached to the characters while playing the game and following they’re journey

El juego te va gustar, tiene obviamente más acción, matar infectados, caníbales y cazadores con tus propias manos, controlando a Joel y Ellie es increíble, vas a poder explorar escenarios que se ven en la serie Y otra cosa importante TIENE ALGUNAS DIFERENCIAS CON LA SERIE, no muchas, pero las suficientes como para sentirse algo diferente a la serie. Recomendadisimo, uno de los mejores juegos de la historia

[@martinsernaleon3160]

Totalmente es una historia increíble con momentos de tensión, de terror pero también con momentos y paisajes muy bellos y únicos, es un sube y baja de emociones tanto positivas como negativas y que decir de la parte 2 para mí no ahí ningun otro videojuego tan brutal como ese la cantidad de emociones que te hacen sentir es increíble.

These guys couldn't have said it any better but they didn't tell you that the game have similar looking actors but I'm sure you knew that so I would like to see your reaction to the original faces and voices because I loved how they made this series with its small and medium difference to keep you on your toes and no the game is not gentle it's intense but pretty and scary, feels like playing a movie

[@mr_biggsmoke4202]

Also yes many of the heavy scenes are in the game but they did change some scenes and made it heavier in the game but more tragic and happy in the series just so it's not copying everything from game, the last of us part 2 game is a more heavier game then the first one so its an experience to have if you like a good zombie post apocalypse with thriving cities and beliefs that people made to stay strong but most importantly to remain in control against trouble while the first one is more about who's the fittest to outlast the fight for control

[@angelquesada7984]

Siii.! Te recomiendo 100% el jugar el juego aunque tiene leves diferencias con la serie sigue siendo uno de los mejores juegos que se han hecho! Ademas el hecho de que ya interiorizastes que la serie no es terror sino que va mas allá, es perfecto porque en realidad estas en lo correcto! Es un viaje donde aprendes tanto de Joel que empieza como una persona distante, seco y un poco insensible por todo lo que paso y sufrio en el pasado, y como va volviendo a abrir su corazon poco a poco, y de Ellie que no confia en casi nadie y aparenta no necesitar de mucha ayuda pero siempre con ese miedo de quedar sola. Es una historia muy bonita que vale la pena. Si lo juegas ahi voy ha estar viendote! PD: En el juego si veras muchos mas infectados jejeje

[@oxhine]

Hey, Pilar! The guy who played David's second, who shot the horse and who was cleavered by Ellie is Troy Baker who voiced Joel in the game! The least of David's transgressions was his cannibalism. Lol. Survival required it like the Donner Party or the Uruguayan soccer team in the Andes. He is the creepiest character in the game. You've witnessed the savagery Joel and Ellie are capable of. The game cleverly gets you to cheer for it here and identify with it since you play as both people. Calling Ellie "baby girl" as if she were Sarah has been the purpose of this journey. Let's see if they stick the landing.

[@davidcortes3399]

Dos datos curiosos: 1 el actor que interpreta a James en la serie, es el Joel original del videojuego (Puso su cuerpo y voz para cada una de las escenas) 2 el doblaje al español latino de The Last of Us está hecho en Argentina, y la banda sonora (la música) estan hecha por Gustavo Santaolla, músico argentino

It is actually very easy to track the horse hoof prints back to the house Joel is in, with the snow on the ground.

[@Bdawg.]

It’s not just the horse hoof prints. They dragged an entire horse to their storage area. It likely left a huge trail including blood. Not very hard to track it back to their location. Joel is an army veteran after all.

[@luvmusicsong2]

Yes . Please play the game on easy setting ( since you’re not a full gamer) when you get the chance. You will find you will get a different, but similar experience while playing. I would enjoy watching your videos while playing too.

[@braydenisstillhere]

You should totally play the game!! The storylines are very similar and almost exactly the same most of the time, but the game still has so many surprises to offer, like the way the story beats happen will still feel fresh even if you’ve already seen the show. Also there are LOTS of infected, and being inside the world of The Last of Us and actually being able to walk around and experience it for yourself is a whole new level of storytelling. If you’re worried about it being your first time playing a game, there’s a lot of accessibility features that can help guide you and make things easier, so I’ve heard that it’s actually not too hard for first-time players to get a hang of!

[@YukonBloamie]

Joel is a murder machine in the game so this episode finally feels like the show finally got to it

My sister never played a game in her life but thanks to the Accesability options she is evean having a good time playing. She played 3 hours at once.

It´s defintely worth playing the game after the show. The general storyline is the same, with some tweaks here and there, but it feels very different (in a good way) to actually live through this story because its interactive. There are more infected and more of the world in the game. The second game is also absolutely beautiful. I guess the second season will be based on it

[@tragicdeyz2641]

Cannibalism as an absolute last resort for survival is one thing. Yes it's an awful choice to make but it's real and it happens throughout history. This of course is being forced to eat the already dead amongst you. Actively pursuing and murdering people is entirely different obviously. I like that the episode doesn't make it clear which is the case here. David is evil for a dozen different reasons though and deserved even more than what Ellie delivered. He's actually very lucky Joel didn't capture him, Great reaction as always Pilar!

[@icarus7217]

Hola Pilar, how insane was this episode. Joel wounded, Ellie captured and the creepy cannibal preacher, sick,sick,sick ! Ellie went Psycho mode with that meat cleaver on creepy preacher man.

[@bobmorr2892]

What me and my wife do is we watch the TV show on HBO then we watch the game version up to that point after. We never played the game but doing it this way we're really enjoying it. I know the people that are into the game are real fanatics, they have to keep in mind the game is not a TV show that's going to go for several seasons hopefully and they have to change it add to it and do what they think will work in that environment and they're doing a fantastic job. Also some people weren't happy and still may not be because Ellie doesn't look like Ellie but the male characters in this past game version of episode eight several of them look like they could be brothers so maybe part of its just due to the medium and the people that design the characters. In the TV version the different characters have much more variety in how they look which only makes sense.

[@kahlbutomacfarland]

They have greenlit a 2nd season and announced it. The show runners have said their plan is for season 2-3 to cover the 2nd game (the 2nd game is a twice as long story) If they get to the point that season 3 is done and HBO still wants more, and they haven’t released the 3rd game yet, they said they would be open to an anthology series following other characters in this world. All that said, the first game’s story was originally a definitive end because at the time they didn’t anticipate it would succeed and get sequels.

[@nintandao64]

it is definitely worth playing it! watching the show only enhanced my enjoyment of the universe, so i'm sure you'll appreciate all the little details that weren't included while u go through the game :)

[@bmart73]

Play the game, you play each character in split scenes. You can explore other areas where the video doesnt cover too, you collect rewards from corners, so it is encouraged to explore. plus you can play season 2 ahead to know what will happen rather than wait another year possibly. By the way the actor who plays James is actually Joel's character in the game.

There's a lot more content in the game than in the TV series, so there will be many more surprises for you. And lots more infected and action too.

They confirmed the second season and there is a second game. It's been practically the same as the games were -including that torture/interrogatory bit- and the second season will be based on the second game (apparently, since the next episode is the last of this one) so get your heart prepared bc things gonna get a lot more wild second part. I didn't like the ending of the second game but it doesn't make it bad! The story is a master piece in every aspect. You should definitely play the game but try to avoid the second for no spoilers of the second season.

Interesting reaction thank you. Many ethical questions in this episode in particular. The clicker noise comes from the deer rubbing its antlers against a tree. I disagree about Ellie just giving up her kill to the thieves letting Joel and herself die of hunger? The rules of the world she lives in are different from ours. Joel was attacked by the man he killed at the university and they are still coming to kill him so he kills them. We've been told Joel, Tess and Tommy are very violent and now you see it. Joel has slowly been learning to be able to feel love and connection again through Ellie and she just did extraordinary things to keep him alive after he was stabbed. He will do anything literally to keep her safe.

I can't really make a valid suggestion about whether to play the game after watching the show, because I don't play video games either really. But I can only offer this piece of logic; the strength of the game, from what I hear, is the storytelling.. and you're already getting the story from the show. So it might not hit the same as it did for people experiencing it first while playing. People who love the game are gonna say it's still worth it, though.

I think it would be fun to see you post gameplays but if you’ve never played a video game before you might not want to start with the last of us. It’s an intense game. If you want to play a zombie game I would recommend season one of telltale’s the walking dead. It’s a narrative based game that has limited gameplay that would be a good way for someone to get accustomed to using a controller. All the telltale games are like that. My favorite is the wolf among us.

[@TomTomson81]

"If you lost in the darkness, look for the light" If Ellie was the light in the darkness, there is not much left of it now. For Joel, it's still enough. He regains his light through her, at the same time she loses hers through this world. Another low point for Ellie and a turning point for her. Here the animal in Ellie came out with her overkill and the experience she had to make. Almost r*p*d and eaten. Here she experiences for the first time the worst abysses in man. I think if you've seen Ellie's past reactions to losses, there wasn't much anger involved. She swallowed Sam's and Henry's death completely. Here in her outburst really everything came out, which was not seen before. There is no way back for her. She will not be the same anymore. The episode is also important for the future. It shows what Ellie is capable of. A dark side in her that people like David recognize. We have already seen this in her. Her slightly morbid side when she tortured the stalker and then kills him (because of Riley). She gets very close to a dead man who has just committed suicide and then laughs as he breaks through the ground. She watches in fascination when Joel beats the soldier to death in episode 1. The constant asking for a gun. This side in her is not dominant but it is there. Another very good change to the game was to show that Joel didn't manage to interrupt Ellie's Overkill. So this scene ran much longer than in the game. Which shows that Ellie does not come to an end so easily when she has started something based on her emotions. Her emotions/charakter don't allow that. This wasn't just an overkill, this was an over-overkill. Of course, absolutely understandable. I think the series does a better job than the original in terms of part 2. Of course, the game did not have the foresight of a second part at that time. We learned that David and James use codes when they speak. So it is easy to imagine that they did not spoted a deer but humans. The conversation they had about how much rations they still have was certainly coded. Three human bodies were hanging there. That's what should last another week or two. Then they decided to go hunting after a "deer". The four men David sent out two episodes ago were certainly also on the hunt for people. That's why Joel was directly attacked. Even though David says that only a few people know and he certainly believes that, I think everyone there knows what they are eating. They are all afraid of David and he is their provider after all. No one asks questions because nobody wants to hear the answer, but everyone knows. If you say something, it becomes true. For them, David is God and every time David speaks of God or Father, he means himself. Even the banner in the steakhouse "when we are in need, he shall provides" is nothing more than a reminder to people that it is David who ensures their survival and not God. In the episode about God and faith, David is the devil in human form. The devil seduces, the devil lies, and the devil loves fire. That's why he lets the steakhouse burn. This is the methapher. We're supposed to see who David is. The shot just before Ellie attacks David shows this very well. He stands in a wall of fire. The story David told Ellie by the campfire is certainly not true either. He said they were ambushed by raiders after they fled Pittsburgh. I'm sure they didn't escape them, they ate them and they certainly weren't raiders. He just wanted to have Ellie's trust. He wanted to be her good new "father". The father of the girl Joel killed will always be with her. After all, mommy cooked him well. And of course, David has real penicillin for Ellie. They don't want to eat infected meat. It bothered me at first that none of the people of the city showed up at the end. But of course, the rest of the people didn't realize what was going on. The weather is shit and cold. They will sit in their houses and scrape the remains of the girls daddy out of their teeth. Okay, enough macabre. 😁 I also think it's cool and urgently needed that the torture scene actually showed us explicitly how Joel has proceeded over the last 20 years. This was the first time it was really shown why everyone was afraid of Joel in episode 1. This is Joel we know and he liked it. This is Joel when Ellie is not with him. Troy Baker (Game Joel) as James was sensationell good. I didn't think that one day I would have to see Ellie kill Joel. A nice Tess callback from Ellie in the conversation with David. "Your (our) luck had to run out sooner or later." were Tess's words shortly before she had shown Joel her bite. There will be properly another timejump. At the beginning of the next episode they will already be in Salt Lake City. Also, we'll see Ashley Johnson, who was Ellie in the game.
