    If you're ever interested in more video game docs there's the God of War one "Raising Kratos" and the YouTube channel NoClip has a bunch of really good work.

    I found the pitching and prototyping to be the most interesting part of this one, I really like seeing early stages of games and think more people should. Like you said people are used to seeing final products so whenever something like GTA VI leaks people act like that's what it's gonna look like on release.

    I loved all of Uncharted games online multiplayer. Would still be playing it now if they had it available

    The first games online I remember trying once and hating it. Forgot about it though. They need to either make a 3rd game or focus on a new series

    I mean they did give you the game lol. An amazing game and series at that. They also gave you a great online multiplayer. You're not forced to play it. If I pay $70 for a game it should have more than the story. I loved spider man 2 but then I beat it within a month and I'm done with it

    I’ve replayed the game and watched other people play it too many times. I think I’ve f----- myself when it comes to the show because I’m kind of numb to the story now lol. But who knows, maybe I’ll bawl my eyes out since it’s in a different format. It seems like they might make more changes this season than they did in season 1

    First season was terrible, probably the most overrated show I've seen.

    They just wrapped filming and threw a party to celebrate. I wouldn’t be surprised if we get season 2 by January 2025 just like how we got season 1 in January 2023.
    https://www.gamespot.com/articles/t...-see-photos-from-the-wrap-party/1100-6525906/

    The article also details how Kaitlyn Dever had to have extra security because she plays Abby. It’s crazy how people can’t separate actor from character. Absolute morons.

    This is gonna be absolute cinema. It seems we don’t have the month that it’s releasing in yet but I’m assuming it will be January. With how they showed Isaac it makes me wonder if we will get more of his backstory especially since he’s played by a big actor. Kaitlyn looks great as Abby. This therapist angle seems interesting. I suppose it’s to give more context to TV viewers that the game would usually give through other means.

    Let’s see Kaitlyn Dever’s performance as Abby, maybe it was for the best that she wasn’t casted as Ellie. I think Kaitlyn is gonna k--- this… literally. I saw her in Unbelievable and I’ve been a fan ever since.

    I’m looking forward to this season. I actually started another play through of TLOU2 since the PS5 remaster came out. Unfortunately I’ve been too busy with other things to keep playing consistently, but I wanna finish my play through of the remaster before January. Can’t remember which difficulty I’m on, I think it’s at least the second hardest difficulty. The new survival mode is cool too.

    I really want Part 3 though. At least this show will hold me over a bit. I’m most excited to see how Kaitlyn Dever portrays Abby and what changes they make to the overall story when compared to the game. I loved Bella’s portrayal of Ellie in season 1 so I’m interested to see how it evolves in season 2. She was definitely different than game Ellie but I think she will be a lot more similar to Part 2 game Ellie this season. They’ve already established that this version of Ellie is more vicious so it makes more sense.
