Marla Singer Posted January 11, 2023 Posted January 11, 2023 23 hours ago, The Last of Us said: Definitely not. As she wasn’t in the first game and S1 is just showing the first game / Left Behind DLC. The second game is going to be more than 1 season, so depending on how they choose to show the story, she might not even appear until S3. True, even the first game + Left Behind could probably be more than 1 season. But if they wanted to go with a different timeline or narrative structure than the game, then they could... ...introduce Abby earlier, towards the end of the first game's timeline, so we get to know her and her father before or at the time when the Fireflies take Ellie to him for surgery. In the game, we really know little about who Abby is until very later on in the second game Putting this in a spoiler because it is a game spoiler, but not exactly sure how close to the game's plot the tv show will be.

I think with the first game they could have potentially done it over 2 seasons, but when you look at videos on YouTube that combine all of the cut scenes and leave out gameplay, The Last of Us is around 6 hours long and Left Behind is around 45 minutes long. So I think 9 episodes (especially considering some are over 1 hour long) should be enough. Spoiler It would have been cool if they introduced Abby earlier in the series, but I don’t think she’s needed for the first series, as I think it works better seeing her dad getting murdered and then finding out she’s his daughter later on. I can’t wait to see how they handle Part II!

Love Sux Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 (edited) Drove past a billboard for this on the way to work this morning and wished I could have snapped a photo. Finished my 1000th replay of Part I last night and I’m planning to get Part II started tonight and finished in time to watch the premiere on Monday. Edited January 13, 2023 by Love Sux
The Last of Us Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 Why were the posts discussing the episodes deleted? Did they not contain spoiler tags or something?
Walk_Away21 Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 As a huge game fan, I will not be streaming. Good luck to them tho.

Baby Judas Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 They filmed some of the scenes at our school and some major roads in the city here in Calgary. Never heard of this though, so I didn't even bother to take a peek. And now this is looking like it's going to be one of the biggest shows this year.
UnusualBoy Posted January 13, 2023 Posted January 13, 2023 Ngl, I'm kind of hyped for the show even when I wasn't fond of the game.

As TLOU is massive.

Love Sux Posted January 14, 2023 Posted January 14, 2023 I can’t believe how close we are to the first episode being out. I’m so excited I could vomit!

Or just not sleep

Raptus Posted January 14, 2023 Posted January 14, 2023 I’m not a gamer- can anyone explain why Part II is so hated?

Otter Posted January 14, 2023 Posted January 14, 2023 I wonder how this is going to effect the sales of Part 1 and II. Part II especially deserves a big sales boost. It should hit 20m mark once all is said and done
BionicWooHoo Posted January 14, 2023 Posted January 14, 2023 The zombies look so terrifying and cool ngl. Might watch to just see that
The Last of Us Posted January 14, 2023 Posted January 14, 2023 1 hour ago, TheOnlyOne said: Sexism and homophobia A lot of the hate was from people who hadn’t even played the game and had no intention to (Xbox gamers) - there’s a lot of people that love it and even prefer it over the first part.
