How the last of us redefined storytelling in VIDEOGAMES(AND why it still hurts)

The first thing that comes to mind when I think of The Last of Us is, HOLY SHIT! This show is going to be incredible. The two main characters are an immaculate choice. Both starred on popular TV shows such as GOT (Game of Thrones), and The Mandalorian. When I saw who was playing the characters in The Last of Us, I immediately trusted the direction the show was going. Although, I didn’t play the game as much as I should have (due to me being creeped out). I still believe the show will do it some justice. Within the first 30 seconds, I was automatically hooked and craved more as the show progressed. The first 5 minutes is two scientists speaking with a show host and explaining to them what is to come. Now, I don’t want to spoil the show, but I will say that it captivated me once the audience realize this wasn’t a laughing matter. Silence filled the room, and the atmosphere grew cold. Cold as the undead waiting to unfold.
