Yes I did.

As for the 2nd season, without spoiling it, both games are complete stories. So this season is building towards an end.

I've never played the game, but I hear the TV is in some places "shot for shot" mirror to the game.

But if you've played both games then you know the endings.

I would have thought the shows creators would have changed it, it only has to be an adaptation not a shot for shot retelling.

It is shot for shot in some places, changed in others.

But the overall major plot points, characters and structure are the same. Last week's episode ended the same way the game did. This week's episode is very close to the game as well. Each episode is roughly a chapter from the game.

I am 90% sure they're building to the same ending. Unless they're going to do a major shift for the finale but given how loyal they've been to the story I think they'll see it though.

There is plenty in the next game to do another season, maybe even two. The second game is very long.

This week's episode was very good.

Re: The Last of Us

As a TV series I am enjoying it but I must say I can not see how the game is exciting. So far it has been 80 cut scene 10% exploring 10% action

Have you played the game? The game is obviously structured differently.

This is how the last episode aired today differs in the game:

Spoiler: 

In this last episode, you have to get to the dam (where Tommy actually is), it's attacked by raiders so you fight there, then Ellie runs off to an old house and you need to go find her and fight bad guys on the way, then you have the scene where Ellie is reading the diary and then gives the speech about everyone leaving her, then more fights. The university is a big action scene in the game with a lot more action.

Re: The Last of Us

Ok well yeah. The game has a lot more action than they take out here or condense. Episode 2 is probably the closest to the game in terms of structure because you literally just travel from point a to b. But each episode has taken out a lot of the parts where there would have been gameplay, episode 3 is literally you and bill going though a town full of clickers and runners (i.e zombies) to get to a high school.

Re: The Last of Us

Weakest episode of the series so far.

Just, boring, really.

Re: The Last of Us

I think the first in Kansas City was the weakest, then this one. This was a bit slow but I feel it was more critical in Ellie's character growth, the pacing generally is a bit off as they go through certain parts at a brisk clip and then slow it right down again.

This was the episode I was most concerned about as I knew it was coming and I knew it wouldn't fit into the series' story (it's DLC in the game).

The final two episodes should pick up now.

Re: The Last of Us

It was interesting to see the back story, but an entire episode was not needed.
I ended up skipping bits to get to the bit I knew was coming.
Despite all that time dedicated to it, we didnt see how she discovered she was immune.

Yeah I want to see that. You don't see it in the game either.
