Why Did The Last of Us Season 2 Fail? (And Why the Game Works) | EvaluNate

I'm EvaluNate, and in this video I dive deep into The Last of Us Season 2 and explore why it falls short of the high expectations set by The Last of Us - Part II video game. As a passionate fan of Part II, I break down the key issues that impacted the show, from Ellie's mischaracterization to narrative pacing and baffling changes that weakened the emotional impact of the story. I also compare the storytelling methods in the game vs. the show, highlighting how the adaptation changed crucial moments and character arcs. HBO's The Last of Us missed the mark in capturing the same dark, compelling narrative that made the game so great. Spoilers for The Last of Us - Part I, Part II, and both seasons of the HBO show are included.
