The games quality and narrative impact are simply undeniable.
The HBO The Last of Us adaptation takes some liberties with Joel’s character.
Here are the biggest changes.
The same thing can be said with the live-action adaptation by HBO.
Its highly regarded as one of thebest video game adaptationsin the world.
In the games, its Tommy Miller, Joels brother, who sets out first in a hot-headed moment.
This is a moment of growth for her, since we dont really see this opening-up in the games.
This adds a sense of mystery and weight to Ellies character.
The first season of The Last of Us had many great episodes, but which is the best?
Youre immediately drawn to her, because of bothher near-flawless writingandAshley Johnsons incredible performance.
In the series, though, Ellie’s personality is quite different.
This is a more realistic take, less fantastical.
Its a decision based on a TV character, and not a video game escort-mission-character.
Its a very deep and emotional moment, one thats completely removed from the show.
Ellie just ignores Joel and goes on her way.

Its obviously done this way to give more weight and regret to Ellies decision.
Ellie falls through some unstable flooring to the story below.
Ellie even gets bitten.
The situation turns intimate very quickly, with them sharing a very passionate kiss on one of the couches.
However, during the show, this doesnt happen at all.
Some of the dialogue is spread out into other scenes, but theres no passionate kiss.
This was probably made to create more tension between Ellie and Dina, setting up an eventual romantic relationship.
