i love the 2nd video game, played it 2 months straight when it came out on ps4 pro, i upgraded to 5, but i already mastered the game no need to play it again.

everything ive read in this thread tells me all i need to know and its about what i expected, after what i seen what they did to the lord of the rings and star wars, i knew this didnt stand a chance. as far as shows go.

wheres ur boy Jadejosh?????


I replayed part 1 between episodes 2 and 3 and just got to the part in part 2 where you switch from Ellie to Abby. It's all fantastic and seeing the show crumble after having such a promising start is kind of depressing.

1 mediocre episode = the show crumbling :rofl:

the show not being a 1:1 copy of the game is fine. I don't think this episode was great but you guys are overreacting

The actor for Ellie is completely monotone, and her character is written completely wrong. She is missing all of the core elements of the character. I'm not sure if I said it here but I was hesitant about her from the very beginning, but willing to give them time to develop her, and they developed her horribly

And it's not that it's one bad episode it's that they decided to take important and extremely well written scenes and change them for no fucking reason. And I'm not talking about things that were changed/removed for pacing issues I'm talking about almost 1:1 scene recreations which are changed for no apparent reason to just be objectively worse.

Who fucking cares. It’s based off the game, doesn’t have to be exactly the same

I would legit tie you up for zombie bait. Go to a car dealership siphen the gas out of show cars and spread amply around you and the show room. Ungag you and activate the car alarm to notify the zombies. Hop into the car from the back and wait till they come. Once they congregated in numbers and surrounded you throw my zippo lighter through the window. Woof the entire place goes up in flames as I drive away in my brand new pick up into the sunset. The end. This is directors uncut version ofc but you have to wait to get it on blueray DVD.

Now that I think about it I would rather save fuel as it will be more valuable then being entertained for 10 mins.

This post is a violation of the site rules and appropriate action was taken.

Lol this thread reeks of gayness. Imagine calling yourself a man when you like taking it up the ass. Soy freaks.

You know be it two guys making out bothers you or doesn't it's retarded to review bomb a show because of one scene. The show's good thus far.

I hate people.


who are the people that even have time to review shit? In my lifetime I put like 3 reviews because I was asked by the companies.

I didn't say it had to be exactly the same now did I? In fact I said I understand needing to make changes, but those changes shouldn't be objectively worse, unnecessary and completely change characters core personality and values.

It's a shame that they deviated from the game so much cuz as someone that never played them at all the show is pretty dope so far.

Yeah that's how I feel. No expectations previously set up.

It's the same with adaptations from books, if you're passionate about the book you notice every deviation and ask why they would do that.
