MaxEffingBemis posted... Of course they did. They were funny interactions in an otherwise dreary game. Yeah you should watch it to make up your own mind cause it turns Bill into a much more useful and interesting character. That final letter was so sad but should help Joel. --- http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u223/chocolateFRESH/arts/kraid.png - Thanks GP cosmonaut! http://i.imgur.com/TuJWAR8.jpg ...

Doom_Art posted... Yeah there's some people out there whining about this episode being like "they got rid of the excellent Bill and Ellie interactions!!"They were humorous scenes in an otherwise pretty bleak game. Though I think in the show Ellie alone so far provides the humor needed, and the relatively optimistic Bill and Frank relationship the show gave us makes up for a lot of the outright depressing shit the series has otherwise. So the Ellie and Bill scenes aren't really missed that much --- MSI MEG X570 Unify | Ryzen 7 5800X | 32GB DDR4-3600 | RTX 3080 Samsung Odyssey G7 32" - 1440p, 240hz, GSync ... Copied to Clipboard!

I played the first game only once, years ago, so I forgot what they did with Frank's character. Loved the episode. I understand the disappointment over the divergence, but didn't feel that. I think there being new and unexplored aspects to an adaptation of a story I already know is preferable to it being 1:1. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Nice episode. I enjoyed this one. Like technically, whod like to watch joel & ellie walk simulator to Bill's compound when it was done in the first 15min. The backstory provided didnt feel forced. I liked how a guy like bill knew and managed his resources. Yeah though, Looks like ep4 goes into the 'more dangerous than infected' threats. --- You don't stop playing because you grow old, You grow old because you stop playing ... Copied to Clipboard!

Rharyx211 posted... These. Outside of cutscenes for most of the game joel just grunts, while ellie talks lol. I started playing it again just before the release of the show and you can't have a show where Ellie asks a question, Joel gives a one-word response or a short sentence, and then it's an awkward "oh" or something from Ellie. Then they walk for a bit until they find more infected. They've done a great job adapting the show so far imo --- The night brims with defiled scum,and is permeated by their rotten stench.
