/tlou/ - The Last of Us general

Good episode I thought. Dina is a better Dina than in game. Good chemistry with potato.
They're being kinda pussies straight away **making you feel for Abby and not killing Joel right away, but we'll see.**
**Also the dance scene is more impactful after Joel was dead for a while, so I'm not sure it was wise to use it straight away.**

**Text you want to hide**

**{Text you want to hide}**

[SPOILER]bla bla bla[/spoiler]

Bruce Willis was dead the whole time.

”that fucking monster! All we wanted to do was murder a child, why must we suffer so???!! Oh the humanity! *rips out hair* what have we don’t to deserve this except try and rip the brain out of a non consenting child woooeeee is meeeeee!!!!! Cuuuurse you jooooeeelll!!!!!!”

What is this fucking plot lmao. They really want me to feel sorry for those fags?

IMG_6829.jpg - 720x720, 42.42K

The show is so inferior to the games, why do people bother with this trash?

Im like 20 mins into it. Who the fuck is Eugene? Why did Joel kill him? Why is the therapist yelling at Joel while hes crying? Why is Dina making fun of Joel for seeing a therapist? Did Joel even see a therapist in the game?
This is like a bizarre Joel humiliation ritual.

who's eugene

Why are you watching this putrid jizz?

the conservative youtubers are gonna have a field day with this show

That doesn’t look like the Abby from the game. What made them redesign?

IMG_6833.jpg - 1206x1889, 1.02M

For Moner.
Its actually fucking embarassing how bad Bella Ramseys acting is next to Moners.

So Joel death isn't happening ep 2, too much action. I bet they milk it till ep 6

Bella is fine. Game ellie was such a poppable annoying little buttzit and she's fulfilling that role quite well if I may say so tbqdesu. I am however disappointed that they did not force abby's actress to take the anavar, tying her down if needed instead Neil chose to let the musclefu community down. Shame

that's the correct decision.
one of the main problems with game 2 is that the story is misstructured: we needed much more of the Joel Ellie relationship development before the tweest.

show is also already doing much more setup of Dina and Ellie taking retarded risks to make them setting off on a revenge quest while Dina is pregnant slightly less retarded.

women going on patrols isn't the retarded part.
the retarded part is ANYONE going on patrols without massive amounts of heavy ordnance and a vehicle given how dangerous the infected are.
but you just have to accept that as a story rule for anyone to be able to do anything.

I played the first one but skipped the second one after the leaks.
Is this episode a close representation to the 2nd game? i mean broadly
One thing i really enjoyed of the first season is that it was very close to the first game (except for the Bill episode) there were a lot of 1 to 1 scenes and moments recreated.

Also picrel, are there some stealthy zombies in the 2nd game?

Eugene is a side character on the 2nd game, he developed dementia and eventually died of a stroke. You dont see him in the game, just find some photo, lore, backstory and such
I think that in the show we gonna see Joel execute him at his own behest (or his wife''s). They casted Joe Pantaliano for that part.

Eugene obviously got bitten and mercykilled.

Bella is fine.

She really isnt. She can't act for shot. Her retarded facial expressions break all immersion. Maybe if you closed your eyes and only listened to the show it might be passable.

So why is the wife such a bitch? What a shit unprofessional therapist.

So they didn't kill Joel in the first episode? Isn't there only like 10 episodes? Should probably get that wrapped up already

Also picrel, are there some stealthy zombies in the 2nd game?

yes

they're dragging the story across 2 (possibly even 3) seasons, get ready for filler galore

Pedro is a massive draw for the Normies. If they kill him off next ep people will stop watching. Im calling it they won't kill him until the last few eps.

*Mogs Ellie.*

Joe Pantoliano

Damn it, now I have to watch this slop

I mean the game killed him off at the start and then you get to see him through flashbacks and it made the ending where Ellie says she wants to try forgive him have weight
kinda removes that weight if they don't kill him and still do it that way which they probably will

first season is that it was very close to the first game

??? did i miss the part where the raiders were run by an overweight soccer mom? or the part where it was revealed that the cordyceps is actually a hive mind singular organism that can dig under cities and launch surprise attacks like the movie Tremors? or the part where the zombies transmit the disease via sexual assault?

65112356113.jpg - 1200x675, 82.62K

They did the flashbacks first like the original draft of the game. Well, all except for the final conversation between her and Joel to make it seem like her last words to him were at the dance. They'll flashback to her turning back.

it's a reversal: the therapist who herself obviously needs therapy.
Mazin is aware that a post-apocalyptic therapist is inherently implausible and is having a bit of fun with it.

Apparently they're bringing back spores for this, likely for the scene convincing Dina she's immune. But that tremor thing will be why the horde happens the next day.

telling stories in chronological order is usually better unless there is an unreliable narrator element (which here there isn't).
but Druckmann was both in love with his own plot twist and stuck making an action game, so there was pressure to order the events so the player could start shooting infected as early as possible. we were still in the Game of Throne era where the risks of shock tactics were underestimated.
Mazin has already improved on the game by not doing this the question is how much it helps make the story work.

So Joel death isn't happening ep 2, too much action. I bet they milk it till ep 6

how is that making any sense? I feel like i'm going insane reading people who say joel's death will happen in the finale of the season or in ep 6 like you say. I can't wrap my head around it. It's the thing that starts the story, how can you put it in the finale? It's already bullshit that they moved it to episode 2

does the shilling for this show really have to include you pretending to be part of an imaginary group who thought the second game was good and pretends to be mad that the show changes stuff? what the fuck is the point of that?

This is like a bizarre Joel humiliation ritual.

Well, duh.

I just like talking shit about it and not even watching it. TLoU was a fine movie game and it should have been left at that. Now it's just an embarrassing franchise.

where did you get all of that from? Lmao, it's schizo time

They have already taken so many liberties with the show. How can you not see that Pedro Pascal is a big thing? If they do kill him next ep there is going to be ALOT of new flashbacks scenes with him for the rest of the eps to keep him in the show.

In the game Eugene isn't shown but referenced by Ellie and Dina in the early part of the patrol section in the game. He was their Friend and Drug Dealer. In the show it seems like the therapist was married to him

Ellie weed.jpg - 735x414, 31.67K

Why are they sexualizing Ellie when they were saying sexualizing Ellie was bad just a few years ago? What's their fucking problem?

She's 19 now

she was 14 at the time you fucking freak

So now it's okay to have a girl with down syndrome be sexualized?

they're sexualizing her as a lesbian not as heterosexual pedobait.

Downies need love too m8

he is dying next ep 100%

Isabella Merced/Moner was a great choice and I'm not saying that because you cunts love her she's genuinely a great fit

This is not "taking a liberty with the show". Joel's death starts the story. You can't move it to episode 6 or 7 the fuck are you all smoking? This is so fucking retarded

looks beautiful and captures the cheeky essence of Dina perfectly

If they do kill him next ep there is going to be ALOT of new flashbacks scenes with him for the rest of the eps to keep him in the show

so exactly the way they do it in the game then?

All the men are portrayed as subservient automatrons in the show lmao

why are all the clothes so clean and new looking? terrible costume design

Beacuse it's a post apocalypse and everyone who survives has massive amounts of both physical and mental trauma?

They've got electricity and running water going in Jackson. When they get to Seattle you'll start to see some dirty people

because it's been 25 years and they decided to wash their clothes

The museum scene is in the show, likely taking up most or all of an episode. If the horde is episode 2, he'll die in episode 2 or beginning of episode 3. Leaving episode 3 for the grieving and deciding to go to Seattle. 4 more episodes with at least one of them having the museum scene.

In the podcast they admitted Abby was only jacked for gameplay reasons.

which is strange because she doesn't ever really do anything in game that would require her to be that jacked

Honestly Based. Neil should have fucking said that years ago

i just played through the 2nd game because it finally came out on pc. i feel like ellie and dina on the show have no chemistry at all.
the banter and jokes feel forced and cranked up to 11 which is present in the game but doesnt feel out of place. ill give them that, the sets and general vibe of the world feel authentic

Anyone else feel that the potato looks too young and is not portraying young adult Ellie well? I actually was fine with her in season 1, but now she really seems out of place and out of her depth acting wise as well. I think they should have considered recasting.

Ironically I felt Abby was instantly more sympathetic because Kaitlyn Dever doesn't look like She-Hulk. It's ironic they cast her because she was one of the fan castings for Ellie back in the day.

Growing suspicion is that we will miss out on some true ludokino because they didn't go with Cailee for season 2.

cailee-ellie.jpg - 2152x1800, 455.69K

It was so she could be a Joel-like character. Like Ellie is Diddy Kong and Joel is Donkey Kong.

Nadine in Uncharted was also jacked for gameplay reasons huh?

I don't know who that is

I'm gonna wait to see some more intense Ellie scenes before I make up my mind

she wouldve died in the lower parts of the hospital if she wasnt jacked. prying open the jammed doors running from that fat blob thing

I suppose but beyond that I can't remember much from her part of the game where her being jacked was completely necessary

I had to look her up, I guess to hold her own against Nate?

Also picrel, are there some stealthy zombies in the 2nd game?

yes there are, creepy little fucks

They are stalkers and they are in the first game as well

Bigots BTFO!

joel.png - 1251x1186, 184.75K

Joel fucking SLAYED
its giving brat summer

I wonder if we'll see the bigot sandwich in the next episode

None these “people” are women

They need to kill Joel next episode

we were robbed of immeasurable degrees of Cailee kino it's fucking unreal. I hope cuckmann dies in a fire

Does it happen fast in the game

dunno, never played part 2

yeah happens like 2 hours in

You didn't know who she was until Alien Romulus last year

it will definitely happen

yeah it's what starts the entire point of the game

yes, in fact it's surprising they didn't kill him in ep 1

It's basically the intro and the plot engine the entire season hinges upon. There is no story without it. Jackson is like 5 minutes in the game I'm not sure why they spend so much time on it in the show.

Did Moner put on a little weight?

mare of easttown and devs were very popular on Anon Babble and it inspired tons of Caileeposting

yes and thats a good thing

The trailer included scenes from the game that take place after he dies so it won’t be the finale. Probably ep 3

Like Ellie is Diddy Kong and Joel is Donkey Kong

They started the day before and added the therapist to establish Joel and Ellie's relationship status. Instead of through conversations with Jesse and Dina about whatever happened last night.

I'm not sure why they spend so much time on it in the show

file.png - 582x457, 266.78K

more crustposting confirmed?

file.png - 581x523, 350.1K

"Crustposting" wasn't a thing no matter how hard you tried to make it

It's true from a gameplay perspective. It makes Abby Kiddy Kong which even fits the perception.

If she got some of that latina plumpness, it made her look better

Yes. But it actually makes her look way better.

cute Moner.jpg - 777x777, 57.54K

shame she has that permanent asschin debuff

it's next week, mate

moner looked hot in this episode

yeah, I was laughing at how apt the comparison was

So what episode will Joel teed off to the great gates in the sky. Will it be prolonged to a season 3?

Yeah it's garbage they felt they couldn't recast her. but that's why he turned nonbinary - now if they got rid of her he could sperge out and call it a hate crime. So here we are, stuck with this. There's supposed to be a 4 year gap btw. They/them have not aged lmao

show is already greenlit for season 3

Season 2 Episode 6

you came here from reddit

Is this confirmed?

ain't no way they dragging jackson out for six episodes
it happens next week

yes, the character will wander around aimlessly for 5 more episodes

god she is cute

pretty good but the start to season one was stronger. Dina looks beautiful, Bella isn't distracting

I don't think it'll happen next week. They'll do more with Ellie and Dina, they'll do more of the Jackson council shit, they will do something with Eugene and Joel (I mean flashbacks obviously since the guy is dead) because they cast Joey Pantoliano to play him. They'll show Abby and her crew planning what they'll do to Joel. There will be a big attack against Jackson by the infected which we see in the trailers, I'd imagine this might happen before Joel dies as well, or maybe it happens concurrently. I think Joel dies in like episode 3. Then 4 will be about mourning and Ellie deciding to go for revenge. 5-7 will be about them journeying to Seattle and then the early Seattle stuff, which we have seen bunch of in the trailers already. And they'll do more with the Wolves/Seraphite conflict since Jeffrey Wright is in the show and they already showed in the trailer dialogue scene with him that isn't in the game. We'll probably see some Abby flashbacks with Isaac as well.

She just turned 23 (43 in Mexican)

ellie will be in seattle in episode 3

Joel will shoot Eugene in the back

They will change where Joel dies. They know ratings will drop when Pedro Pascal is gone.

we were robbed

first of all, the ratings won't drop. There will be an increase after the death. Second, the ratings really would drop if they changed story structure in such a retarded way

What's Moaner's role in it? I didn't watch the episode yet

Why is Dina making fun of Joel for seeing a therapist?

she didn't make fun of him, she was simply surprised that he would willing to go to therapy because he's a pent up hardass all the time. and then she promised not to tell anyone else about it when he asked her not to

drunk bisexual Mexican

she punches zombies with her bare hands throughout the entire game, and just generally fights like much more of a brute than ellie. wouldn't have worked if she was a stringbean like ellie

even then it would be off, because every word out of her little gremlin mouth sounds incredibly forced because she literally is forcing herself to do a shitty american accent. choosing this little downie sperg when there were so many valid reasons NOT to choose her just seems so spiteful

moner is upstaging egghead in her own show

Most of the cast is to be honest

Every time they are in a scene together i feel embarassed for Bella Ramsey. Moner actually makes a good Dina.
Who do you think got paid more in this? Dina for being a movie star and can act or Bella who is the lead but is terrible?

Why is it different?

Because they're two teenage girls whereas Joel and I are men with upper body strength. At least one of us was also in the military and we both have ~20 years post-apocalypse experience

oh yeah sorry I guess that was a dumb question

We missed out on two 5ft cute spinner having a full on Blue is the Warmest Color sex scene as they "own the chuds"

Its like they don't want to make money

women should be allowed to do whatever they want even if they're not qualified to do it

uh i think we already established that a 5 foot tall egg creature is just as strong and powerful as a 6'6 muscle man with the opening scene

The pretentious pozzed shit is annoying, but Im really enjoying Moner and Kaitlyn so I guess it balances it out.

this

The idea of that guy not being able to break that hold was fucking ludicrous

If they want to show "badass fight girl" show her hitting the groin and joints, not putting his head in a leghold when he can obviously just pick her up and slam her into the wall

post apocalypse means never washing your clothes

just because you're a stupid fucking secondary doesn't mean everyone else is

His idea of "post-apocalypse" is probably only informed from Fallout 3 and Fallout 4

realistically, Ellie and Dina would be pregnant wives taking care of children in their homes

I am not sure what their exact intention with that scene was. Because it was partially about the big guy pulling back, but then at the same time he kind of accidentally got owerpovered by potato's epic bjj maneuver?

So they are telling simultaneously that Ellie can't fight against much bigger men, but also she can? Because in a real life or death situation that guy isn't pulling his punches and he definitely could have just punched Ellie in the face when she had him in the headlock. But then of course in a real life Ellie would also use a knife or kick him in the balls or something.

It was a weird scene

apparently it was based on how an actual tiny person has to fight to try to take down a larger person. maybe it usually wouldn't work but its basically the only thing that can.

they want men to be condescending and women to be all powerful at the same time

does bella ramsay's face even move? does she have some kind of palsy in her face muscles? absolute dogshit performance in the kiss scene

apparently it was based on how an actual tiny person has to fight to try to take down a larger person

Well they obviously didn't research it very well

Hot

She was good in GoT because they only asked her to play the angry child, she has no range.

isn't this being split into two seasons? he's dead af at the end of this season if that's the case

The casting is starting to bother me more and more because Ellie's characterization is actually fucked up too.

its real ju jitsu. Craig talked about it in the post-show podcast.
again, not saying it would work much of the time but its what's officially taught.

I hope that makes it less tedious for you to constantly complain about it in every thread on this show even when there's zero chance of her being recast.

Its okay, we have AI, and eventually we'll be able to just place whoever the fuck we want over her.
youtube.com/watch?v=1h-yy3h1u04

it honestly feels like god is punishing me for something by not giving me Cailee as Ellie. I will go to my grave upset about this.

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about the fact that Joel killed Eugene.
Figured people would take issue with how they are making joels character a little less likable in preparation for his death, which will definitely make it less impactful.

he's dead af at the end of this season if that's the case

are we being raided? Why is there so many of you

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about the fact that Joel killed Eugene.

how was it not obvious that joel killed him because Eugene got infected? are you one of those speedwatchers?

It doesn't matter the context of which he died, the impact is the same, he windowed a woman who detests him for it. It's actually good writing because again it's harping back to Joels actions and how it affects the people around him

even normies are saying bella's acting sucks

uh oh

It doesn't matter the context of which he died

you are a goddamn moron

he windowed a woman who detests him for it.

so you are a speedwatcher lmao

where are they saying it?

Who the fuck was Eugene?

there's a difference between washed clothes and clothes that look like they've never been worn before

Brooo, I can't not laugh to this

Raimi vibes with the dykes comment

shes just so fucking distractingly ugly, its ridiculous

weird take. no one here ever really has a problem with how she looks.

Moner so lovely

this is shopped.....right?

Fuck you Moner is beautiful

this episode was ass, I heard second game is more ambitious but it is still boring

there will be shitton of action in ep2

I predict Joel killed Eugene because he found out about Ellie's immunity, and then he lied he had to kill him because he got infected.

Mercy killing a man who will turn into a zombie in few hours is the same as murdering him.

would be much more interesting than just eugene getting infected

Lots of lesbian couples look like this irl

I was going to ask how gay and retarded this show was, since I like watching Nature recover from the stain of subhumans, but then I saw fucking pedo pascal in the thumbnail of the first video and that tells me everything I need to know.

THAT'S Abby's crew? They remind me of the Alien Romulus zoomers. What I recall from TLoU2 was that Abby's crew were surprisingly unlikable scum but they at least looked like adults.
Hope they put the pregnant woman in the dangerous warzone again for the lols.

impossibly cute

This time it will be based since it's with girls and not moids.

A) she's a clicka
B) she bit me
3) that wasn't my cure she was carrying

I really wonder how will "mainstream audiences" react to Joel getting dabbed on. Especially if it's the next episode.

I guess Abby-chan being somewhat cuter is Druckmann hedging his bets.

I can't wait to see toxic masculinity get eviscerated by Abby next episode.

in stills she looks horrible, yes, but when she actually acts it's often pretty good, like her first scene in which she was sparring with that guy

They obviously only said that because there aren't actually any real life actresses who could play the part of Abby since only the most roided out bodybuilders have that build
Backtracking cause you were proven wrong isn't based

this

they'll probably film themselves having hysterical breakdowns like when that asian guy played baseball in the walking dead or the various game of thrones moments

my only big complaint is with the cinematography. It just looks okay, normal, nothing special about it. Not bad but nothing good about it either. No interesting color grading or framing, just okay

A lot of people cannot be bothered playing video games, that's why they'd rather watch other people play video games on Twitch or just watch a TV show about the game instead.

I think they are conditioned to main characters dying on big television shows, Game of Thrones, Walking Dead etc. I don't think it'll be anything compared to the gamer seethe

such a poppable annoying little buttzit

This show is so good when you watch it while eating an extra crusty pizza.

I felt Abby was instantly more sympathetic because Kaitlyn Dever doesn't look like She-Hulk

That's exactly why they cast her

Ah, good point.

ellie gets bitten

carves it out

washes the knife in the sink

infected blood goes into pipes

it activates the strands

the seethe was culture war fueled

based pajeets
they cant poo in the loo but they sure know how to have fun

I agree with you, it's not just that their clothes are all clean but that they look brand new. At least if their clothes were faded and showed some signs of wear and tear, I could understand.

unfortunate trvke

Cope. She was an 19-year-old cutie in Bad Times at the El Royale. That movie came out in 2018.

THAT'S Abby's crew? They remind me of the Alien Romulus zoomers.

What do you mean, the chick who plays Abby is 28 in real-life. Cailee in Alien Romulus was like 26 at the time of filming. They're all adults.

If they really like the show and look it up online or talk about it with other people then they would have found out by now that Joel dies.

That's a great theory; but did the writers think the same thing?

You've could've gone for greatness, Anon.

Last of Sky.png - 939x673, 372.34K

In the OP image, they all look like 10 years younger than they do in the game. I find it difficult to take drama seriously when the actors look like high schoolers. Same as in Romulus.

there's no other way

They're all adults.

Grim

its a flashback

Habsbourg respawn from hell.

Are the Seraphite confirmed for this season.
I will never forget their introduction in the game with their whistling communication.

yes, they are in the trailers

Sorry I'm late. Is this the tread where we cry about how ugly Ellie is? You know, like adults?

You disobeyed a direct order and put both of you at risk

Say you are sorry

That is really dumb. I never liked how they portrayed Jackson in the game and the show. It seems way too hippy dippy to actually exist.

where are the Moner screenshots? Has Anon Babble become so gay they won't even turn qt to webm no more?

isamo.jpg - 1013x1013, 113.71K

who are the fireflies?

They want to cure mankind from mushroom by killing Eliie but Joel kill them so Abby take revenge

this whole board has been crustposting non-stop since the first season dropped

They're rebels.... They rebel.

Moner reminds me of that one chick in game of thrones who had to act like she was interested in joffery and the other kid because they were kings and she had no choice

She's more akin to the BAD PUSSI dornish slut

Whole board

Threads would get like 100 posts at best Anon Babble must be washed

ugly troon beats a man three times her size in a fight

you will never hunt infected with Moner

Moner will never dance with you

Moner will never whisper in your ear

Moner will never look at you like this

Yeah, she was funny and cute during this scene.

El muro es inevitable

what if you had a micro-Moner and she lived in your ear canal

cute cuuuuuuuuuute

The "Maybe they're looking at you" really did not work in this scene.

It's crazy how cute she looks in this show, but looks like such a bimbo stacey irl. Makeup and whore culture was a mistake.

sometimes you take once glance at someone and you just know they're getting passed around the producers

they at least looked like adults.

That scene is immediately after the events of the first season, retard.

ellie is so ugly it's funny I can't help but laugh everytime she's on scene. several times I had to hide it so my gf wouldn't notice

They aren't. They could have cast literally anyone and they still would be hot in comparison to Ellie.

are there some stealthy zombies in the 2nd game?

They're stalkers, the middle phase between infected and clickers, they're in the first game as well

Is this episode a close representation to the 2nd game? i mean broadly

So far it's 75% original scenes. Most of the first episode is made up for the show, we didn't spend much time in Jackson in the game, and only followed Ellie.

Distractingly so. it's actually the biggest gripe i have with this show lol

Was the shit about Joel killing Eugene made for the show? I don't recall it being in the games.

That's pretty easy to change, just have less jammed doors.

No, I've known who she was since Pacific Rim Uprising in 2018. Don't project, anon, not everyone has the same experience as you.

lets send teenage girls on a recon mission and let them explore buildings with dangerous monsters by themselves

Yes. I have acquired a restraining order against Rebecca Ferguson. She was trying to smother me to death with motherly affection.

Eugene in the game died of natural causes. It's even highlighted how rarely that happens in this world. He will get infected and Joel will have to shoot him but Kevin's mom is getting mad because he shoots him in the back

they didn't let them explore buildings. They went there against orders

Why do you guys like these fucking goblinas jewllywood keeps shitting out?

IMG_9566.png - 452x483, 200.91K

i don't see what I gain watching this after already playing the game. Could have asked the same thing about the last season as well.

lmao this shit was cw tier
embarassing, at least the infected were a big deal in season 1

Of course it didn't, Ellie looks like a baby grown in a fucking test tube

Neat, thanks.

Good chemistry with potato.

I'm reevaluating her as an actress for how she's able to play along with that ugly bog troll.

Your telling me surviors aren't checked from head to toe like they did with small pox naked to check for bites or other issues when they come in the wall or check people coming in after patrol.

I'm not buying a playstation or paying full price on steam. It's old and I already know what happens.

joel, a rugged blue collar man from texas has no qualms about his surrogate daughter being gay

Not everyone white is automatically a homophobe

his daughter is mixed. clearly he's fairly open-minded.

the making of the episode shit is so cringe. its just cuckman and mazn sucking each other off and telling you the viewer what makes their show so great and why you should like it

how about let me formulate my own opinions, which is: your sorry shit sucks

DEVS was 2020, you're off by four years.

TV Joel

white

LOL, LMAO EVEN

Outbreak began years before the woke mind virus so gays are more normal in this timeline

I watched the Pacific Rim sequel and I'm glad I did

IMG_4928.jpg - 2000x1000, 412.93K

This broad has been around forever god damn considering her age she has done so much already

I'd eat her asshole even if it was infected by mushrooms and spores

based crust enjoyer

SHTF like 25 years ago. That Joel would be apathetic to somewhat restrained public displays of faggotry is reasonable compared to a lot of shit in the second game.
Just wait until the show gets to the Scars lmao.

so people would watch the show

Just watched the first episode—and this is coming from a big Part II fan who would give that game a 10/10 review:

Telling the story chronologically works much better. In the game, it only really worked if you played it twice.

I liked the therapy angle they had Joel do, and just having more of the background story in general—especially about life in Jackson.

Dina is cute and somehow even better at being Dina.

Ellie was alright in Season 1, but she looks even more out of place this season.

Ellie is kind of annoying—she wasn’t like this in the game.

It really should have been Cailee.

08.jpg - 2500x3750, 1.49M

Crazy how you just outright admit your politics are a performative part of your identity.

No one should care about this in an apocalypse

Yeah good episode. The new cast is especially good.

friendly reminder that JOEL is not a good guy and arguably got what was coming to him.

s1 was 9 eps but imdb only shows 7 eps for s2 - is that legit?

yeah noone should care that two breedable females are mashing gash instead of doing their duty to repopulate the world

dumb Cailee astroturfer

joel opts to save Ellie over the world

wtf why doesn't joel care about his daughter choosing not to repopulate!!

Retard

Dina is literally pregnant

yeah only 7 episodes. Part II is probably going to be 3 seasons is my guess.

Yeah, I like Cailee. But even so, Ellie was written completely out of character, especially during the patrol. In the game, she was cautious during that part, not wanting to take too many risks and hesitating to enter the supermarket. Here, she’s annoying and going full Rambo because she's mad at Joel.

it'll be two. Mazin will probably have Abby be taken prisoner by the scar people in act 3 instead of an abruptly introduced fourth group, to cut down on the superfluous garbage Druckmann shoved in.

All I see is motherfucking André.

I don’t care about morality in my entertainment, I just want good characters that are interesting and Abby wasn’t that

I watched some Part II cutscenes on the ol' youtubes and I'm reminded how great of a performance Ashley Johnson gave. I actually thought Bella was pretty good this episode, but I'm god they do not compare.

They did call out the slavers in season 1 though

There r Ep2 leaks? I heard about them

Nah Santa Barbara has to happen. Best part of the game.

Only based character in the show right now, moral, stands up for what's right, tells it like it us, takes no shit, doesn't needlessly take revenge over nothing (Abby could learn from this)

That’s why the chud calling them dykes was so cringe

They moved that around though. Tomorrow's patrol will be after the final conversation we didn't see.

*MY GOD

Next episode he makes bigot sandwich as an apology

cast him

Do you think the slavers raped the tranny and Abby?

Excellent cook, willing to forgive and forget even though he did nothing wrong, can he get any more based?

Me

Yeah you are right. The patrol was the next day

This is why representation matters

A bunch of retarded gay shit happens while guitar music plays in the background, it’s really intense

fuck cailee

Uhh what happened in 92?

henry cavill in a fat suit

Yeah, Hapajewson raised by lesbo parents, based Druckman!

I forgot how universally ugly TLoU2 is.

Steve Shirripa

try being less hateful

How dare you tell a 6foot man to go easy on me!

Your just gonna have to forgive me and let it go

Why am I meant to pretend Moner is not hot?

No, you just tried to spam it long after anyone ceased caring

You mean one guy posting a thread every day and spamming it with his shitty crust puns and extremely detailed descriptions of gay sex? That's not the whole board, my dude.

What could have been

there was a spoiler free review on IGN and one thing it said is that they didn't rate it highly because is apparently incomplete.....makes me wonder if perhaps this season won't kill Joel but they will wait for the next one for maximum profit.

Ellie is kind of annoying—she wasn’t like this in the game.

BIGOT SANDWICH

we're supposed to believe Moner is attracted to this

most of this episode was made up and isn't in the game

I don't think they can stretch it to seven episodes without killing him

There is literally no plot without killing him

No you really don't

I'm going to punch your face...in the face!

He just died of a heart attack out on patrol in the game

Are you retarded?

He didn't even call them dykes in the game.

That lesbian kiss scene was great, would be better if both of them were hot desu

doing their duty to repopulate the world

Dina is pregnant at this time and doesn't know it yet.

If they were, you wouldn't need to be here assuring us.

what is the weird obsession with this line?

Yeah honestly this is pretty realistic. There's always one that looks like a trucker.

Aside from sounding like something a 16 year old would write for their terrible tumblr webcomic, not much. It's fine otherwise.

It's supposed to establish early on that Ellie doesn't forgive easily.
