and turning it into television. In the game, brutal violence is near-constant, because this is what’s considered “gameplay.” In the show, however, Joel and Ellie don’t spend most of their time sneaking through dilapidated buildings filled with infected or shivving mobs of human raiders while also scavenging for supplies.

The only big change that’s early enough for me to talk about right now is the prologue focusing on Joel’s daughter, Sarah.
