But I also want to highlight one thing I particularly enjoy about the shows take on these characters.
Spoiler warning for HBOs The Last of Us and The Last of Us Part 2.
In the game, these characters didnt reallyhavea relationship.
They barely interacted at all, apart from that one scene at the New Years dance.
Dina and Ellie have a relationship, but thats kept completely separate from Ellie and Joels.
Emotional devastation has never felt so devastating.
Ellie and Joel are depicted as entirely estranged, with Dina trying to bridge the gap between them.
And in episode two, its Dina that goes on patrol with Joel, not Tommy.
How Will A Different Dina Affect The Plot?
This relationship will have huge ramifications on season twos plot.
But it also gives Dina a different motivation than she had in the game.
Its a declaration of devotion, but the show doesnt take the same tack.
A show to really focus on the last of them.
Instead, Dina is given her own reasons to want revenge.
This might mean well see a more vengeful version of Dina in the show than in the game.

This, in itself, will have repercussions on the rest of the story.
Game Dina is arguably more of a bystander, one who follows instead of leads.
Will Dina act the same way in the show?
