The HBO series based on the gamechanges some things, but is equally divisive and great.
Joel Miller, the co-protagonist of the saga, suffers some changes.
Many people hate them, others love them.
Nonetheless, they are still bothgreat versions of an iconic character.
The first season of The Last of Us had many great episodes, but which is the best?
During the game, we really dont see this interaction, nor is this ever mentioned.
It couldve been an interesting idea to have it added to the gameplay.
Maybe, Infected coming in from Joels right side couldve been harder to hear and expect coming.
Another reason mightve been because it would look more believable for actor Pedro Pascal.
He also has a loving wife or partner in both as well.
The difference is, in the live-action, he also has a kid called Benji.
Its very short, to be expected, but very sweet nonetheless.
Like everything, it works to give Joels character a little bit more depth and relationships.
The point is, HBOs Joel is softer and much more caring than Naughty Dogs version.
At least, until the live-action adaptation.
Feel it in the pit of your stomach when watching these moments.
Joel also gets very sentimental about Tesss death when reading the letter Bill left him before passing away.
She is obviously Ellies love interest, and she spends most of the game with her.
As to her relationship with Joel, they barely even interact.
A note-worthy change to Joels character in the HBO live-action is Joels interaction with Dina.
They talk, get along, make jokes, and even go out and patrol together.
In the games, not only does Joel not see a therapist, there is no therapist at all.
Gails character does not exist.
