Nice to see Mazin’s confidence in stretching the story to four seasons—hopefully it means more room for those quiet, character-driven moments that made the first season shine. Fingers crossed they don’t lose that magic in the extra runtime
Four seasons sounds ambitious, but if anyone can nail TLOU's emotional depth across that span, it's Mazin and Druckmann. Here's hoping they keep the pacing tight—no one wants a bloated story, even in the apocalypse
Mixed reception for Season 2 Honestly, adapting Part II was always gonna be divisive, but I’m still hyped to see how they handle the rest. More seasons mean more time to win folks over.
