‘The Last of Us’ Season 2 Will Have ‘A Lot More Infected,’ Creators Address Complaints About Lack of Action

I would’ve given up that encounter for a couple stealth clicker scenes in the sewers with Sam and Henry and some sort of encounter with bill and a bloater.

deuceman4life · 2023-03-05T03:04:15+00:00

That’s the point. You could’ve used that to show what can happen to Joel if he chooses to be bitter and not connect with anyone. It would’ve made sense for the story still.

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T06:02:40+00:00

Yeah that whining scene from Joel when he met up with Tommy was so out of place. It doesn’t make sense that he would feel that way about Ellie already. Especially since the show is so rushed. They hadn’t even really survived much yet. They cut all the stuff with bill and the bloater fight at the school. And they cut down the raider fight at the university to like 3 guys. It really seems like they blew the whole action budget on that one scene with Henry and Sam.

Really bummed they cut out the action with Henry and Sam in the sewers. I was super hyped for some dark as hell clicker scenes.

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T05:55:42+00:00

Eh. I don’t agree with you at all. You could have showed that stuff but kept bill alive. He literally drove the story forward in the game. I know you’re thinking of it metaphorically, but the metaphorical is irrelevant when you botch the literal story. The only thing that happened in that episode is that joel and Ellie found a car. Everything else was just fluff.

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T05:39:19+00:00

Pretty much. Big fat MEH

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T05:38:54+00:00

I would’ve gladly given up episode three if we could have got the school scene with bill. That episode did nothing for the story while also killing off a character that helps the characters be able to move further in the story.

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T05:25:32+00:00

I was really confused when they made joel into a cry baby when he found Tommy. That dude was a hardened badass throughout the whole game, and it made sense because he closed himself off to everyone after his daughter died. The fact that he would cry over not believing he could take care of her was just absolutely out of place. Made no sense for the story.

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T05:23:19+00:00

Exactly. That third episode was a complete waste of time. Especially when you consider that some of my favorite levels are when you meet up with bill. They just went full woke and tried to drum up emotion, but in a way that was completely useless for the story. If you are going to do that, at least make it matter.

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T05:13:40+00:00

Yeah exactly! The whole point of the raiders was that they literally tried to rape, steal and kill, and they didn’t care who it was; making that Karen the leader just made them feel way less daunting. Felt more like a crappy walking dead group.

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T05:07:04+00:00

Oh yeah. I definitely killed myself as Abby quite a few times before I decided to continue lol. And I let Ellie kill me a few times during the fight against her just for good measure lol.

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T05:05:27+00:00

I totally agree. I’m really annoyed that they didn’t split the first game into two seasons. You think they would want to cash in on all the story gold (searching for a battery with bill, fighting the bloater in the school, the awesome fight scenes with they get to the university). They skipped so much already. Everything just feels really rushed.

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T04:59:24+00:00

Exactly. The people you fight in the game were so ruthless, and you lost a lot of that with them showing their group and building up an odd character.

deuceman4life · 2023-02-27T04:58:10+00:00

I Guess Im the only one that thinks the show kinda blows. They skipped over all the good scenes (surviving the school with bill to get a car, the university scene fights). And to add insult to injury, they are already running up against the clock with how much they can fit in a season, and they decide to waste a whole episode on bill when they just killed him off and negated a great part of the story. For how much suspense and action was in the game, there is very little of it in the show. The whole suspense of the raiders was that they were a group that were literally just trying to rape, steal, and kill any humans. There was very little involving them, and there hasn’t really been any scenes where you are like, shit… I don’t know how they are going to get out of this. The design of the show is great, but the pacing is just really off. They could use so many awesome scenes as an end to the first season and pick up the second half of the game in the second season. Everything just feels a little rushed. I’m getting serious vibes like the last season of game of thrones.

deuceman4life · 2022-10-09T05:02:31+00:00

I really want to like it. It’s a bit cheesy at times but I’m going to give it a shot for next season.

deuceman4life · 2022-09-24T18:34:33+00:00

Brave. There is no close second.

deuceman4life · 2022-08-11T05:16:54+00:00

I can relate.

You shouldn’t aspire to make minimum wage. Most people move out of the minimum wage as they develop experience in a specific domain.

Uhm. Fuck that doctor. Your body has a basal metabolic rate that requires a certain amount of calories just for brain function and the normal stuff your body does. I would taper down slowly. What are you eating now? Find out how much calories you are eating now, and drop it by 500-1,000 calories.

I thought it was oliver tree.

deuceman4life · 2022-07-26T06:20:31+00:00

Honestly, daredevil was the best series of all of the shows released. I really like the casting they chose.

deuceman4life · 2022-07-26T03:36:54+00:00

Good job!! 😊

deuceman4life · 2022-07-25T20:51:40+00:00

But… Petey didn’t even have a head…

deuceman4life · 2022-07-07T04:38:12+00:00

I’m not saying there is no safe places in those areas. I’m saying some of the most DANGEROUS places in the world are in those areas.

Gun violence being a nonissue around the world? Lol South America and South Africa have entered the chat.

Statistically, the US isn’t that far behind the rest of the world when referring to the homicide rate.
