The basement section is undoubtedly the most terrifying part of the game imo, I can't wait to see that brought to life.
I'm sort of wondering how they'll do it. The part where Joel gets separated from Ellie, Sam, and Henry brings an insane amount of infected/clickers.The basement section is undoubtedly the most terrifying part of the game imo, I can't wait to see that brought to life.
I imagine it’ll be like a combination of Seeds of Extinction mixed with Descendants of Destruction (both houses set in the same story, heh) I highly recommend the show, but has less action than the video game since it has to appease the gamer brain.Do fans of the game/show think I need to watch the show for this house? I’m absolutely not playing the game, but I can maybe stick with the show unless this is just going to end up a pretty basic zombie house (in which case I won’t bother).
For sure - I expect that since they emphasized the sewers.I'm sort of wondering how they'll do it. The part where Joel gets separated from Ellie, Sam, and Henry brings an insane amount of infected/clickers.
Honestly I'd be completely fine with only seeing raiders up until the basement scene.If I had to guess on the general flow, assuming it's a relatively linear adaption of the story-
Checkpoint façade -> Bookstore -> Hotel Grand -> Crashed elevator as a transition -> Basement scene + Bloater -> Urban street with Pittsburgh bridge in the background as a transition (maybe the checkpoint right before?) -> Sewer tunnels, my fav -> Long suburban street overrun with infected as a finale
I still think those will be the major scenes that we will experience, even if they get a little jumbled. My main question is- do we start right with a scene featuring the infected, or slowly build up to their appearance?
I’d still give the credit to Jak II. If you play the first Jak and Daxter, as much I love it, it’s typical Naughty Dog platformer affair in regards to story. Then play Jak II and it’s a monumental leap in terms of storytelling. Uncharted was more of an evolution. Jak II was the enormous leap.To me the big jump was Uncharted 2 , which was easily my favorite game story for awhile until last of us 2
Uncharted 4 was incredible storytelling, the third act just went a bit long. So ridiculously stupid that they essentially used Uncharted 4 and some of the stuff from that game to do a very mediocre movie.I’d still give the credit to Jak II.

Thank you for this. It’s reassuring to someone not familiar with the IP - sounds like a very substantive house. The focus on basements and sewers in the thread was a bit troubling - those aren’t the most intriguing settings for an HHN maze.If I had to guess on the general flow, assuming it's a relatively linear adaption of the story-

I can assure you - I know sewers and basements don't sound exciting, but there is a TON of substance in these areas of the game. Lot of things to look at (particularly in the sewers)Thank you for this. It’s reassuring to someone not familiar with the IP - sounds like a very substantive house.

If I don’t hear that main theme, I’ll riot!I really hope to hear the original soundtrack throughout the house too. I neeeed to hear the main menu theme in the queue line
I have not played the game. Will watching the show be enough introduction to the material?Pittsburgh is the most infected-heavy portion of the game, so it kinda makes sense. It lends itself to a house the most because it takes place in a city with tall buildings, interiors, etc.
Mostly yes. The game and show share a lot but differ on a few things. The Game Center’s more on the actual virus while the show focus on the people.I have not played the game. Will watching the show be enough introduction to the material?
Yeah, you’ll be fine. Pittsburgh is Kansas City in the show but the vibe is very similar.I have not played the game. Will watching the show be enough introduction to the material?
I purchased an UTH tour purely because of TLOU being on it
