      @@xl081 That’s valid.
      I think adding the new elements to the show that weren’t in the game adds depth and makes the show more interesting for those who know the story.
      We are only 4 episodes into the series so I’m sure there will be more infected in the eps to come.
      It makes sense that highly populated areas, like cities, had more infected than the densely populated areas (like bill and frank’s little town and the woods) because there where less ppl to get infected.
      Also, I always thought the people in the tlou were more of a threat than the infected. The infected are definitely more creepy tho and I’m excited to see the horror element adaptation in the show.
      Best game adaptation by far

    What Ellie meant by innocent people was people like herself and Joel, people who weren't taking sides but just going about living their lives. Joel, Tess, Tommy and their crew ambushed innocent people, robbed them and killed them. They tried to make it seem like just a necessity for survival, but Joel knows that is just avoiding the truth of what they had done and who they had become. It's the shit they did that Tess was talking about when she told him to take Ellie and set it all right.

      I imagine that whenever possible they robbed people without killing them, they didn't execute (or eat) them all like some of the other groups in this world would do. But yeah, they almost certainly still ended up killing innocents, when they fought back or tried to flee after being ambushed.

      @@snapgab They did execute people. You don't ambush and rob people and then let them go to later arm themselves and come back after you. In episode 6 like in the game, Tommy will confront Joel and call him on his bullshit in trying to avoid the reality of what they'd done. He says they were murderers, not just people forced into doing bad things by circumstance. That's why Joel is upset by Henry calling himself a bad guy because he'd done a bad guy thing. Joel immediately cuts off the conversation and makes everyone leave. He knows that Henry actually had a real motivation in Sam for doing what he did that he doesn't. Joel was an actual bad guy who has a reputation among the families and friends of those he's killed and harmed which will catch up with him in the second season.

    The shootout part showed a small, but important, detail of realistic humility when the guy at the back of the truck is shot and his buddy actually stopped to check on him before going after Joel and Elle inside the Laundry Mat. It was an action like that that you would think would be a normal reaction after someone you knew well or a member of your group was just shot but we never see that happen in the movies. People get shot and are treated like an extra and maybe later on we see a burial or ceremony based hours later.

      The kid begging for his life was a nice touch. In the game you kill the hunters show calls them raiders and there’s no impact to it more guys just start shooting you. Part 2 kinda implemented some of them would beg for there life’s but the way the show showed it the guy was scared he didn’t wanna die. Makes the threat human and makes sense because people are just trying to survive there not in invincible like the game kinda makes them out to be.

    As soon as I saw her pull out *THE* joke book I actually threw my fists sky high. And I’m so glad that they added the diarrhea joke because I was afraid they would *run* out of ideas.
    But seriously, this show is so insanely faithful to the game that it doesn’t feel like a show but almost like and expansion pass/extended cut of the game. Even though I do miss the scene of Joel teaching Ellie how to use a rifle and then saying “No matter what happens, you make every show count” I still love him teaching her how to use the pistol because a) it shows the bond between these two growing and b) it tells the audience that Ellie had some training from FEDRA so her learning quickly feels natural.
    And now we are getting to see the more human side of the people who were trying to kill Joel and Ellie in Kansas City (instead of Pittsburgh like in the game). Neil Druckman and Craig Mazin said their inspiration came from how throughout history there have been cases where the revolution that usurps a repressive regime becomes just as bad if not worse than the previous regime. Also loved that we got to see Jeffery Pierce (aka Tommy from the games) finally show up in the show!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

      I'm just waiting for the giraffe scene. That is really impactful (when I played the game). I know that sounds weird, but it is a beautiful moment where we see Ellie doesn't have a normal childhood. Doesn't know what zoos are. Feeding a giraffe would be so weird in her shoes.

      @@Flufferz626 It’s like in the second game when Abby and Owen find the aquarium and refer to it as “One of those zoos for fish.” Like, they don’t even know what an aquarium is, and they were teenagers when they found it! I too am excited for the giraffe scene; I wonder how they’re going to film it? Considering how well all of the infected have looked so far, a giraffe should be a piece of cake😅!

    I agree Steven, the scenes of the ruined world are dope. The bond these two are forming get better and better with little "reveals" as their own characters grow. The story line and how the show "connects" on so many levels is awesome. Yes Pedro can laugh:-) They are really crushing this series. Thanks for another great show.

    I'm loving the characterization between these two. Ellie's pun book that she kept from Riley, Joel teaching her how to properly care a gun insinuating the trust he's instilling in her, not to mention how quickly they still get in a lot of progression in despite the short runtime. They waste no time with this.
    The fact they even gave some depth to some of the hunters here is also a massive plus.

    What I found interesting and very well done is the fact that Ellie asks a lot of questions partly because she's still wondering if and when Joel is going to abandon her because at this point she is still just cargo and she is scared even if she doesn't want to show it

If there is no society, there are no rules. This show doesn't cut any corners when it comes to realistic hard subjects like that. You've done a huge service to HBO fans not spoiling literally anything about how this show ends. Bless you Nikki & Steven for holding your tongue.

    There's an old saying in war, a mortally wounded soldier almost always calls out for their mother. The goal in that scene was to humanize the "bad guys", something they did in the second game.
