I’m kind of surprised how you never mentioned that literally every character show wise should be fucking deaf. Guns are loud in general but considering how many firefights and industrial equipment was just running around without any form of suppression it’s truly a wonder knowing Joel can still hear anything Ellie by the second episode

>>26319This didn’t exist in HEAT. Well it did exist they just portrayed guns accurately which is shocking because that quite literally hasn’t happened ever in film making

>>26316You didn’t just miss the blatant in accuracy of guns in the show
You also missed
>the fact that spore transferred infections were just flat out removed from the show since it “wasn’t dramatic enough due to actors wearing gear that would protect them from” as dumb as that sounds>the fact that lore wise nearly all cars straight up don’t work when Ellie was a child which is eradicated as a concept by the 5th episode and never elaborated on >the fact that people in Joel’s time have easy access to ammunition despite it being decades since society fell apart and also the fact that that would’ve meant most bullet factories are totalled>the fact that more effort was spent protecting Ellie from danger to find a vaccine despite the fact that it’s common knowledge in the show and game that the fungi is the most present and easiest to study in flour based foods >the fact that every encounter with the infected leaves know one injured in any meaningful way regardless of context unless a character specifically has to die>untrained scavengers somehow having a shot of wonders when they have guns unless they’re near the protagonists suddenly they have storm trooper aim and tactics >the bloater not immediately following the pair out of the room when it was first introduced>Kathleen like the rest of her crew standing idly in front of an infected child for several seconds instead of shooting on sight and killing ellie off reflex>no one else bothering to do something about or just gtf away Kathleen while she’s distracted or being just flat out eaten by the same child>Joel needing to be a piece of shit for no reason and murdering bryan when he could’ve done something smart like ask for directions and knock the fucker out purely to justify the shows age rating in the shittiest way possible>Joel in general being a piece of shit in moments when he doesn’t need to be around ellie or his companions because “muh kid or trauma” or some other horseshit excuse as if in real life bitter people are somehow incapable of feeling emotions that aren’t bitterness from time to time also ignoring the fact that even in the original game he wasn’t as much of a cuntSome of these problems are from the games but most are from the show and the list of contrived bs keeps going

>>26328>the fact that spore transferred infections were just flat out removed from the show since it “wasn’t dramatic enough due to actors wearing gear that would protect them from” as dumb as that soundsI wonder if there are other political reasons they decided not to depict a deadly outbreak of an airborne illness that is defeated by masks
No.26344
>>26343Nope the reason for the lack of masks seen in the original game was quite literally because the director was complaining that having actors wear safety equipment around disease would make the show less dramatic since the audience wouldn’t be able to see there faces. 🤣

It's a run of the mill zombie story. I was going to make a post about people ITT criticizing it like they're Neil Degrasse Tyson, but it's not like there's much to say about it to begin with.
>>26343It's a common thing in live action that actors want their faces seen or directors want actors to have their face visible because they think not seeing someone's expressions limits their acting capability or something. It's the reason capeshit heroes don't wear their masks most of the time.

>>26371I’d honestly prefer a generic zombie show over whatever sludgefest of superheroes and remakes Disney won’t stop cramming into every fucking section of entertainment. Can’t even find a reason to pirate anymore since what’s available currently is that shit
