Xbox not gonna fail. Gamepass too solid rn to let that happen. Maybe less focus on a the system and more on the software to sell everywhere is a possible route

Off topic I know but the amount of employees they are firing while making profits to me is a sense of failure. Lack of delivering out some major games is failure. Focus on acquisition is okay but not if you are squandering or not seeing results from acquisitions and new studios. Gamepass is solid and genius now and saved them from shutting down but eventually they may have to raise the price but to do so with a straight face they have to deliver more

Wow they topped the first episode

And with all this talk about episode 3 man I can’t wait

This was me when Joel gave Tess a boost up to a high spot like in the game

nahhhhhhhhhhh this whole Indonesia scene is some incredible s***.

They playing tendril hockey

Nah would’ve taken away from the surprise. Sure we know what happens but first time viewers have no idea

Meh I wasnt really attached to this Tess anyway

yeah this more the thing for me

This is what they did to the camera operators before yelling action

“Kiss of death”

s*** is so disorienting

The misdirection with Tess ankle but she actually was bit on her shoulder was nice. I can’t remember if that was in the game?

Whew what a great episode

Those 50 minutes FLEW by

Really wish they would have went with unknowns for Ellie and Joel though. Those Cold Opens especially this one slapped without having seen the actors or in this case actress before. Hope season 2 sees they don't need star power as much

F***ing christ only 2 episodes in and I’m absolutely hooked

I’ve never played the first game all the way through, I’ve stopped right when I find Bill every single time but Last of Us 2 is one of my favorite games of all time. Maybe it’s time I go back and play the first before I continue watching the show

Great episode, tension of the clicker scene was crazy
Joel use a shiv

The opening scene of episode two, holy s*** that was fascinating to see. I love seeing the details behind the virus. Visuals look much better and cinematic although the hand held shots are a bit too much. Strong follow up.

Just watched episode one

Great opening scene

Idk I think a lot of these takes are comparing very very early character exposure to these renditions of the characters to fully contextual opinions we have formed of the characters from the video game.

Like, in TLOU part 1 game, I really just don’t think at this point in the story we’re close to either Joel or Ellie being fully realized to the point where we’re connected to them heavily yet. At that point in the game, we’re still just learning about who these people are. Hard to compare 2 episodes to the experiences we’ve been through with Joel and Ellie in the games.

Give it some time

I guess lucky me I’ve never seen GOT

Seeing my mom posting about this show in her Facebook group

2/2 so far.

Shaky cam needs to be exterminated
