Just watched the first episode. Even though I've played the game several times and know most of what's going to happen I was still anxious watching scenes unfold. They did a phenomenal job. Hope they can keep it going throughout

So far, this is easily one of if not the best video game adaptations Ive seen. They clearly respect the source material (probably helps having one of the creators helping make it) and so far any changes theyve made have been respectful and have really only improved the story. I really like the idea of the mycelium network connecting the infected.

Ive heard the creators are currently considering a three season arc for the show (one season for the first game, two for the second) and want to keep it faithful to the games to make adapting future installments easier. With the reception and views the show has been getting so far, I imagine a second season is basically all but guaranteed.

Cool episode, I knew we were getting original backstory content but I did not expect it to be so different when it caught up with the current day . It's a 180 from the game. There will likely be very split opinions on this episode

It was way different and way more negative. Spoilers ahead.

So I was totally not expecting it to go that way. At the start, I thought Frank was just pretending to be gay to get to stay there and that is how they were going to play it. In the game, Frank eventually kills himself and leaves a note saying he hated Bill the whole time. Bill basically doesn't want anything to do with anyone at all, and hides that he was gay (or tries), he and Elli argue alot etc.

Nick Offerman was great in this role and it's an interesting roll compared to his previous ones. The ending was honestly way better and it's one of the best uses of changing how a TV series goes vs a video game. It eventually has little to no effect on the over all story, while adding to it significantly.

Very good episode of 3 very good episodes, I am constantly impressed by the job they have done on this series and I wasn't even a big fan of the game.

In the game, Bill and Frank survive together for 20 years (similar to the show), but at some point, Frank leaves Bill, stealing a car battery and then finding his own home. He gets infected and then leaves a note for bill that says he hated his guts and his methods for survival and then hangs himself so he doesn't turn.

My hometown is where they filmed some of it, and it kind of breaks the immersion when you can identify obvious landmarks and yet the show is supposedly set in the US. Like the train bridge that crosses the river valley.

Ive been enjoying watching the post episode interviews with the directors and actors and such to get more insight into the episodes, particularly changes from the games theyve made. Ive already felt like so far any of the changes theyve made have only enriched the story, but its nice hearing the reasoning behind these choices

I hate the preview for the next episode. I like going in completely blind. But I like the post episode commentary but it's too hard trying to figure out where one starts and another ends. I skip ahead too far then I can just rewind 10 seconds but then I end up with a few seconds of preview I didn't want. Where did those zombies in the end come from? Were there just a million zombies in that house's basement?

Another great episode. 10/10 so far

What Ogurisama said but they also allude to it at the end of episode 4 and also allude to/mention it a few times throughout the 5th episode. It was fairly heavily foreshadowed.

Yeah SilentSeph I'm watching with my wife who has next to no knowledge of the game and she keeps asking how close the show resembles the game and I tell her it's not 1:1 but overall it's pretty faithful.

Even knowing the outcome I'm still phased with how the show adds a layer of depth to the characters with more fleshed out dialogue and character building moments. Knew how the episode would end but damn it still got me
