In that case, they will either need to stretch out the story until they complete TLOU 3 or they need to hurry with development before it gets to that point.

TLOU is too much of a money maker for Sony to end it after the second game just to pivot to a TV show.

Yeah, even if this show turns out to be amazing, first and foremost I love the game, I never want the show to over take the games.

I doubt that’ll happen anyway if they do decide to make a third game, part 2 comes out in a couple months and we’re probably at least a year and a half away from seeing the first season, not to mention it probably won’t be 1 game = 1 TV season, I think it’s safe to say we’re closer right now to a third game then we are to a season of the show that overtakes the events of the 2nd game

They can stretch the first game out by doing one season per season in the game(fall,summer and winter part of the game )

I just saw in the film room that the creator behind HBO’s ‘chernobyl’ is also behind this

the mood/setting are going to be correctly established :wow:

if anyone hasn’t seen ‘chernobyl’ then get an HBONOW trial account and watch it

Just like how, thankfully, Game of thrones never caught up to the books. :troll:

but seriously, they could just do a very loose version of the first game without having to do it beat for beat...throw in some surprises..w/o messing with the overall arch of the story....i doubt we get more than 3 games and there is plenty of time clearly to get this done right.

If this show gets as big as game of thrones did , that would put the last of us on the same level as Mario and Halo brand wise.
