Television The Last of Us - TV Series HBO | NO GAME REFERENCES OR SPOILERS | Receives 24 Emmy nominations

I just hope we get another game and it doesn’t get neglected due to the show. 1 was a landmark game for narrative based video games - I’m currently playing the remake - and 2 for me while also very good narratively was slightly inferior in that regard but has arguably the best stealth action gameplay mechanics till date.

The show was good but as someone who loves the games and also the medium of gaming, for me its more a lesser (but still very good) version of it.

Sometimes, but also the best episode of the last season had almost nothing to do with it at all. It goes on tangents and elaborates on some things, but the general plot is identical yeah

It follows the overall story and doesn't leave out any of the most iconic shots/scenes/lines, whilst also adding additional content and single-episode characters to flesh parts out.

Basically they managed to stay very faithful to the game while making it its own thing.

It's well worth watching.
