“should the player continue these actions, the world will reflect back knowledge of them.”

“But, should the player continue these actions, the world will reflect back knowledge of them.”

yeah, i wouldn’t mind one or two jokes (something about the aforementioned rafts or referencing how nonsensical his item recipes are). Something that you could be out of the room for and not miss anything.  But it can’t be a central point of the show

I don’t know how to tell you this, but putting a wall or barrier between you and a speedy clawed monster than will charge directly at you if it even hears the slightest sound is what most people would call A Good Idea™.

Extremely minor spoilers for game and show follow:

Despite what they say, I think the author doesn’t realize this is a TV show and not an interactive game.  Nobody watching a dramatic TV show wants to see Joel craft a bomb or a shiv.  They can throw things like that in as easter eggs for players, but Joe Shmoe wants to see a story, feel for the characters, and watch…

I have also loved the first two episodes, but I really hope you get to play the game someday if you are at all interested. It is really something-one of the best of all time for me.

That and Asia is the predominant home of the fungi, but it’s more fun to pretend it’s racism without saying it’s racism...for reasons.

  Don't see a lot of parody accounts on here...

“Not to mention this obsession with the past which has left the Saga damaged and the universe stagnant and unsure of its future...”

It was the first SW film to introduce any sort of original thought since Empire.

Yeah that’s pretty clearly the answer. I don’t think Joel’s actually on Atkins, he’s just saying that to justify not eating the neighbor’s offering.

Any movie franchise that runs for long enough is likely to be great . . . until it isn’t. It’s not like Star Wars had a run of unprecedented success before Disney bought it. And the same is true of Bond, and Star Trek, and Harry Potter, and Lord of the Rings, and Batman, and Jurassic Park, and Game of Thrones. There…

The real Star Wars formula is to just make whatever crap you want, then give Dave Filoni a few years of various TV shows to eventually make them better. If he could make the prequels seem better than they actually were, he can do anything.

For real. And I swear, if I ever see Ellie or Joel carrying more than 9 rounds of ammunition for any of their guns, this show is dead to me.

Doesn’t seem to be much circling tables excessively and doubling back on empty shelves in case they come across random screws or pills. Starting to doubt their commitment to the source material.

In Obi Wan they already showed dead Jedi in storage tanks.

I *think* the Shadowy woman is going to be Ysanne Isard and the Star Destroyer could be the Lusyanka which was a prison buried on Coruscant.

Yeah, virtually everything you buy makes someone unsavory richer. The fact that we’re paying with our personal info doesn’t make it any less real that our time on this site not doubt enriches a bunch of terrible people.
