Every Error in The Last of Us Season 1 

The knife scene in episode 1 is actually to emphasize the differences between Sarah and Ellie, Sarah is more so enthralled by the engraving rather than the knife itself where as Ellie is much more violent and would have been fascinated by the knife, I think it is a parallel to the episode 3 scene where Ellie uses her own knife to study and then kill an infected Edit: I think your media literacy is actually just bad

the bill, frank and riley storylines aren’t pointless. the last of us is about people and their stories and showcasing stories outside of joel and ellie flesh out the world. we saw joel’s backstory with sarah; the person he arguably loved the most when his life was normal (pre apocalypse) and ellie’s backstory was introduced in episode 7. episode 7 shows ellie making a choice to fight for joel the way she couldn’t for riley, providing a parallel of two different events in her life where the only person she has is dying. even though these stories aren’t actively propelling the main narrative forward, they are providing depth for world building and the characters making them equally important.

18:30 bro doesnt know that the placenta doesnt come out until later after giving birth and not right away

joel isnt having ptsd he's having panic attacks out of fear he'll get ellie killed 😭🙏also, henry and sam arent just there for the grief factor, they are to feed ellie's survivor guilt which is very important for her character

I love the show, and one of the only things I noticed wrong that I just shrugged off was that in the first episode when Sarah was at school, her teacher said there was some type of homework due the next day, but in episode 3 when Joel was telling Ellie about the outbreak, he said it was Friday night that everything fell apart and it was all gone by Monday, meaning that when they showed Sarah in class, it was a Friday and no schoolwork would be "due tomorrow."

I would argue some of the errors such as kathleen and henry are actually just about the hypocrisy of humans/emotional reactions. I interpreted Henry’s reaction as him not wanting Joel to be the one to kill his brother. Henry had to come back to his senses to realize Ellie’s life is in danger and there is nothing that can save Sam.

They shot Sarah because she had injured her ankle and the soilder thought she got bitten and was infected. I actually didn't notice this at first until I rewatched it and questioned it so it made sense to me. It wasn't made clear because I think the viewer was supposed to catch it themselves. Also the scene where Sarah is gazing at the knifes print was supposed to contrast Ellie and her knife. Sarah is more fragile and girly (Joel even mentioned this) while Ellie is more tougher, given she was born to survive in the apocalypse.

17:00 Or… and hear me out on this one… she doesn’t want to eat the body parts of dead people?

pretty much every "point" you made can be explained with context you purposely left out. Episode 3 isn't "pointless" because it draws similarities between joel and bill both being protectors and stopping anyone from harming the people he loves and sets up joel finding a car. Episode 7 isn't pointless because it emphasises and explains why ellies biggest fear is to be alone. The reason ellie stays in the room with sam is because she believes she cured him by rubbing her blood on him (a point you purposely left out).

There were so many flaws with this analysis, but the one I was most bad about was when he criticized no blood from the infected. So many times they emphasized that under the infected skin, instead of normal bodily fluids there were mushroom parts, the criticism was just straight up wrong.

@ 1:48 he says the kid has on Perfectly fine shoes???.... The kids sneakers literally has duct tape holding them together... 😂

You’d think if one is about to make a 20 - minute long video on the fallacies of a show, they’d at least make sure they fully understand everything that’s happening there, lol. Like Tess being already infected so there’s no need to bite her amongst many other points. But you do you, fella, it was “all downhill from episode 5” of TLOU unlike your video, that didn’t even get past 3 minute mark

Ok, the part with Ellie "wasting precious food" that David gives her is because they're cannibals. Even though he said it was deer, she doesn't trust him, so of course she's not going to eat it. I can't tell if you weren't paying attention or just nitpicking.

This has to be a troll right? I mean, you spend more time analyzing the fact that joel's knife is not relevant than even remotely trying to understand any character or plot arc... Some of your points are valid (tbf extremely picky, not that anyone would actually like the show less due to any of these, but ig that's kinda the point here) but surely the rest of the video is full on trolling

I used to agree with you in your other videos, but this one i couldn't disagree more. The comparison of Joel and Dany is just rideculess. Joel has lost so much and he literally said that Ellie was the only reason for his healing process of the loss of Sara and the others. The only way you could compare the two (Dany and Joel) was if the fireflies have given Ellie back to Joel and then he would had gone out and massecered everyone. I know the show isn't perfect but it feels like you went out of your way to make this video, with some really bad and stretched points only because that is what your channel have become. And finally you can make some other content than GoT that is popular.

Why do so many people not understand episode 3? It's literally the most in your face message and people still don't get it.

"The handgun didn't had realistic recoil" bruh that's not a videogame, that type of gun have almost no recoil and at that point in the story she already knows how to manage a gun, she even grabbed the gun from her friend before. Just awful nitipicking and no real problems

And I thought my media literacy was bad. Sheesh.

I think I read somewhere that if the person does not resist, the infected have no reason to be aggressive and bite. So Tess being kissed makes sense as they can also be gentle if there is no resistance and spread the infection that way.

as much as i agree with some, i disagree so strong with most of them, like everything has to be extra useful or extra perfect knowing that it's human being that don't do everything perfectly

I feel like a big portion of these "errors" aren't actually errors or aren't as you portray/perceive them to be.

this is the worst list of "mistakes" ive ever seen, this show is great and it did not decline after the third episode as you said.

the only error is that it's already over

Just like a video game, 2 shots of penicillin and you’re back at full health plus regen for 5 mins

1:00 I think it's a foreshadow to the last episode, where Joel receives Ellie's switchblade. Maybe it's that very thing that pushed him to actually save Ellie and not fail just like he did with Sarah. 1:30 I think that would have led Tommy to actually have a severe skin burn lol 3:12 I think there is an actually bigger issue here, the infected shouldn't even care about Tess' presence since she's already infected, when sick people produce certain chemicals that some animals can small (cats dogs etc).This might even be the reason on how infected dont bite each other. 7:04 I mean they're holding Ellie hostage, one sudden move and she could get shot. 10:35 I mean it's like saying Tess' death didn't matter because she's been just mentioned a few time, the encounter with Tommy didn't matter because, well we won't see him till season 2, Tommy's wife was pointless and the counter with the cannibals didn't have sense. I think it's actually a way to show how much they've been through and how many friends they've lost, making Ellie's hate toward Joel EXTREMELY clear when she'll find out what Joel did to the fireflies 14:44 I think it's left to the viewer's imagination at first, wondering if the first person Ellie shot was actually her best friend, y'know that line ""it wasn't my first time shooting someone". But most importantly the episode isn't about hoe Ellie killed Riley etc etc but actually deciding if it is better to leave Joel off its own or not. I totally see your point there tho. 18:55 ok yea gotta admit that was funny af Anyways, amazing vid, I really liked it, would love to see what you think about what I wrote. New sub!

The show has a lot of errors but most of the thing you discuss aren’t errors, they’re just you not understanding the show.

I actually really liked most aspects of the show (unlike you it appears lol) but I'm happy someone finally pointed out the issues with Episode 5. So many people have said it's a perfect episode but there are so many basic flaws. The infected scene was epic but having the protagonists survive while the main antagonists all die seemed so forced, like Joel apparently has superhuman aim and Ellie has the ability to easily wipe out clickers with a knife (despite repeated gunfire not working on them), while the antagonists suddenly become completely incompetent. And after all that, Kathleen just casually stands in between the infected and the group with a gun at Henry without doing anything? It's like she deliberately wanted to be killed by a clicker

This video was you freaking out for 20 minutes that a little girl wasn’t an experienced killer, hunter, and survivalist

Ellie’s pistol is chambered .32 ACP, which is less powerful than a 9mm. I think this, along with the fact that she has had *some* FEDRA training on how to hold a weapon, explains why the pistol looked like it didn’t have recoil.

why would ellie know to stalk a rabbit she's raised to be a soldier not a hunter 😭

Calling her the voice actress of videogame Ellie is inaccurate. They did act all the scenes wearing full-body tracking suits. They recorded the voices and movement at the same time. It wasn't like ither games that animate the characters and give them voices later, as they did act all the scenes in the game. The only difference is that instead of using costumes and having their faces on screen, they mapped all they did to 3D models

In Ep. 2 they don’t go to bite her cause she’s already infected. She’s not a new host, so there’s no need to “get rough with her” like you said.

In ep 8 ellie kicks away the food and drink offered to her in the cage. In several subsequent shots while David is giving his spiel the plate and cup can be seen where he placed them below the door/wires

This video would've been 5 minutes long if you didn't count character flaws as production errors... Edit: yup, he just called euphoria a modern classic now i understand everything

A lot of people seem to be disagreeing, but I really enjoyed this analysis. The editing, the right amount comedic relief, the attention to detail. Think I enjoyed it more than most of show. Great content!

One of the general errors you mentioned that the soldiers shot Sarah and Joel is because they got an order to shoot everyone in a similar way that they bombed all cities in twd so no one could get out incase they were infected

I also noticed how attached Ellie seemed to be towards Tess in what seemed like a brief period of time immediately following the discovery and realization that Tess had become infected, I also noticed a minor accent slip while Ellie was being dragged away by Joel. that said, It's possible that Ellie remembered what Raily said after being bitten at the mall and understandably didn't want to leave Tess to die alone but sadly they had no choice with a horde of infected only a few moments away from rushing into the building, but if we are viewing the scene of reference absent the knowledge of Riley's last words to Ellie her reaction towards leaving Tess is slightly odd. the series is by no means perfect taking into consideration possible budget constraints and time restrictions it's still one of the best series released this year and also one of the best live game adaptations made thus far hence even with a few minor errors I sincerely enjoyed this series, all the actors were great, the visuals were great nothing occurred in the series that heavily effected my overall enjoyment of the show, as for some of the critiques I think some of the constructive criticisms regarding the lack of action and pacing etc might be taken into consideration while in production for season 2. keep in mind it was the series very first run and I think it was solid first season overall.

2 more points: fuel becomes useless after 6 months or so, but in the show, cars work just fine after 20 years. The other thing is the bite Ellie's mother get. It' takes just a few seconds to reach the baby? No virus, bacteria, fungus or whatever would travel so fast in the blood.

the second mistake is actually the actual opposite. my dad who used to work on power lines and knows quite a bit about it geeked out here bc he said certain things (something todo with the power lines i think i was paying more attention to the show than what he was saying) would start blowing up if someone couldn't regulate them. along the lines of that anyways, so no, they actually made it quite accurate :) it's a fact honestly a handful of people would know.

it made me mad when tess was trying to flick the lighter for the whole scene instead of just shooting the grenade

Tess should've turned hours before she decided to show her neck wound because it only takes 15 or so minutes to become a zombie if one gets your neck

as someone who is counting errors in a Tv-show you use the word zombie an awful lot for something that is by definition not one.

I got a problem. Why are they even doing any of this? To cure boredom and long walks? Cause there sure as hell aint a zombie problem in this show.

there are many more errors in this video than in the series 💀

14:50 okay yeah this really confirms that these are all just nitpicks because they dont show that in the game either McGenius

I think my biggest gripe with the show was all the times it took the dialouge straight from the game, but not the context surrounding it. There are SO many instances, of this. They are all subtle, but all those choices enhanced the Game and elevate it to the status it has now. For example, "Baby Girl" Ellie tells Joel, in the game "He tried to..." and Joel's parental instincts immeditley take over, not allowing her to finish that sentence, and he comfrts her the only way he knows how. Its what motivates him to say it. In the show, he says "I got you...I got you baby girl" It just doesn't seem as organic. Its a small nitpick, but this happens all over the series and it begins to add up. "Don't tell me I'd be safter with someone else because the truth is, I'd just be more scared." I don't know...Ellie in the show, never really showed much fear. In the game, shes open about the fact that shes shitting her pants, she asks Joel to come back for her when he goes for a dive in the Subway. Joel and Ellie saved each others lives so many times in the Game, when you take out those life and death scenarios, that argument in the Farm House, just doesn't have the same meaning. David going full pscyho in the end seemed unearned, He turns on Ellie without any build up. Ellie and Sam don't have the same heart to heart as they did in the game. The list goes on. And I'd hate to say it, but the acting in the final episode, specifcally felt really really flat. Really felt like 2 actors reading the script off a page. All the inflection and the reading of the lines just don't seem right at all. The Show had an incredible first 2 episodes, but I'll admit it fell off the tracks very quickly. Still the best Video game adaptation of all time, but at best, on its own, a 5/10. Just a personal opinion though.

This video seems like it leaves out much context, deep thought, analysis and understanding. Surface level viewing experience.

Although I understand your video portrays your point of view and opinions, which I respect... I could not disagree with this video any more than I do.

You "Hate watched" this series, the "errors" you state are from not paying attention or wanting to be angry about the show.

Correction for Ep 9, Joel was a combat veteran,. It was on his truck on episode 1

I agree with you completely. You even missed a lot of things i would’ve added. Surprised how many comments are disagreeing. I didn’t like the show. Felt so rushed. The bill mission is one of the best in the game but it never even happens. Going to the school for the car battery. Facing a bloater. Sneaking around clickers. They never even show how hard it is to kill clickers. They just say it is. Also, the suicide note to bill says “i hated you”.

wasn’t Joel a trained Soldier just like gis brother?

literally just cinema sins without the horrible jokes

6:00 love how he's pointing the gun at himself while teaching her how to handle guns. Seems he forgot about an important gun safety rule

This is freakin hilarious 😂

These are pretty much all just nitpicks or opinions rather than “errors”

This dudes media literacy is below zero

About your general errors, clickers are more dangerous due to the fact that they are stronger and can take more bullets than runners and stalkers, something shown previously in the show, which you left out. Also Ep3 and Ep7 have large meaning to them due to it explaining Ellie's fear of being alone and showing the similarities and differences between Bill and Joel and what it means to protect a life. I'm not saying the show is perfect, but I do think you were too harsh on it.

The clickers have thicker hardened skin, and their most vulnerable part is covered with almost bulletproof harded fungal growths that have grown over many years like wood. They are also faster, stronger, and alot more agressive.

NEVER SPEAK ABT THIS AGAIN🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I was going to comment something stupid then I realized this was satire, lmao

What a great comparison: ... Episode 2's plot lines are so weak they make "Keeping up with the Kardashians seem like Inception." Bwahahaha!!! Thank you for that!!

Error of Culture Vulture - he didn't show Miller from the Expanse not even once, when saying "not checking their corners..."

Duuuuuuude, you're killing me! hahahaha EXCELENT POINT tbh. But maaaaan you ruined it for me LOL

I’ve never seen a RU-vidr get owned so hard by his audience lol.

I love this chanel!

Glad I watched Game of Thrones last week before seeing the meme in this video. Brilliant.

It's a good show, but I prefer the game way more. All the points you made in this video are valid, and I think they could have approached some aspects of the series in a different way, but still it was alright tho I prefer the game like a said before

Military Uniform doesn't mean Military Trained. they are either 40-60 year old soldiers, that either have only completed basic training and if in the same Universe fought in the Afghan/Iraq War and so on with age. But the firefly soldiers are younger than Joel so they are probably not Military at all.

In episode 6 the bridge scene , you can see the cast and all the cameras and such in the left corner if you pause it ahah

The fuck? Ellie kicks away David’s food because he was a cannibal who just kidnapped her. She saw a human ear chopped up on the floor. who the hell is gonna trust that?

They do explain why the guard shot Sarah. He says “one injured… ankle”. It’s pretty obvious if you don’t need exposition to walk you through the plot. You’re really bad at this.

bro is trying to be different so bad lmao 💀

Did you do full research before making this video? In the series, there's a combat veteran sticker on Joel's car, this tells us all the combat experience he had on the show. When Ellie's mum gave birth the placenta did come out because it's known as an afterbirth, meaning it can come out even hours after giving birth.

Enjoyed the hell out of the Last of Us despite the fact that Ellie's hats changed several times in the postapocalypric world. They might have come upon a hat store who knows..

19:51 MAN YOU GOT ME THERE 😂😂😂

How can there be an error when it was written by the dude who wrote the game.

I don't agree with you on the quality of the show, but wanted to add one thing that puzzles me - when Ellie got away from David, she only tries to open the door. One easy way to get out would have been to smash a window with a chair for example.

I don't think episodes 3 and 7 are as pointless as you're making them out to be.

You usually make valid point on most videos of my favorite shows. But this one you have a lot of misses and stuff that is easily explained

9:40 Come on you're being a bit disingenuous here - you didn't mention the fact that she tried to heal him with her blood and thought it would work (she even comments it later to Joel as if saying they can't produce a vaccine because it didn't work on Sam). Yeah, it was still a bit dumb that she took no percautions in case he turned, but not as dumb as you're laying it out to be - I think in that moment she was just being an innocent kid, who has no science education, and who couldn't face the reality that she might actually lose Sam

Winter , some people is eating people because winter it’s very harsh , and Joel an Ellie as nothing , after some days and they are meting jirafas ins a spring oasis

The 2nd thing about the kiss of death, I think it was speculated that it was suppose to speed up and accelerated Tess’s transformation. Why? No one knows for sure, but I guess what made the most sense is because the need to spread.

I think the majority of your questions or assumptions can be answered/clarified by listening to the podcast.

David’s speech fails in the show as Joel was attacked unprovoked as they were making an escape and about to leave. David’s dumbass men attacked and had to be killed in self defense. So what crazy man? In the game you HAVE to kill multiple people, both Joel and Ellie do. Mandatory deaths. So it makes way more sense. The show wanted to keep some big moments from the game but failed to build the foundation that makes it pay off. But most will ignore this and think “ohhh he’s giving the speech! So good!”. The show is decent to good, 6 or 7 out of 10. But fails to reach the same high points as the game. Sad a video game from ten years ago does a better job telling this story than a HBO production with an insane budget and really good show runners. Lmao

Joel has military training it is shown that he is veteran in episode 1

Okayyy you gotta be fair to the knife, it was literally put in to be a red herring so you expect Sarah to be the main character. Good point about making it a symbol though to mitigate it

I agree with the every part. Also: Episode 2: Hivemind of fungi somehow travelling to kilometers away and not waking up before on the other occasions was pretty dumb scene. Thankfully that's not in game. Episode 3: Meaningless A.F. Also Joel's hearing disability and ptsd contradicts with his survival in the "business" and all those years.

yo I was very surprised when you said you live here😂

you did not understand a lot of things of this tv series and a lot of things you mentioned as "errors" is because you did not give such attention to it. So saying that this was far from perfect that's BS sorry to say.

Ok the three horses shows Joel's interest in them he wants sheep, he bonds the horses easily, it seems he has a deeper rural background before he met his exwife and settled where they did with Sara it's possibly how he & his ex met in rodeo or something like that it's a past that isn't terribly important for the game or show to cover. Yes TV Ellie is that stupid as TV ellie has not had to endure the same terrible streets & world knowledge game Ellie did. Game ellie went into the streets saw people being shot and hung, she saw wars between Fedra & FF but TV Ellie seems to have missed all this and lives very sheltered she's dealing with TV Joel as if he's one of the elder kids in Fedra school not a killer aiming at her, game Ellie knew the difference TV Ellie does not till later on the series. No one wants a dead zombie's shoes they aren't that desperate they'd salvage off of actual safe dead people so as not to catch the virus that's why they were burned in what they wore it was all contaminated by default who knows how many scavengers after the start became zombies from this type of scavenging. To me in game when they looted masks off of dead dudes I hated that I'm like there has to be some type of disease on that thing you're now strapping to your face that he/she decayed in! Again TV Ellie vs Game Ellie, TV Ellie was fairly sheltered & she's protesting due to this being Rieley 2.0 she doesn't want to leave Tess due to this guilt meanwhile Game Ellie did question this but still moved she knew they had to leave & a bunch of armed troops is more motivating to Game Ellie to move onward when they're banging on the front door rather then what TV Ellie experienced was dead silence & they didn't know how far off danger was. I agree TV Ellie should look around but my bigger issue was the dirt free tampons. Again TV Ellie isn't world savy like Game Ellie. Game Ellie stabs & hurls bricks at people's head within hour 1 TV Ellie acts like she's dealing with school bullies. I think Bill wanted to shoot those guys we do not know how long the whole ordeal was going on for he probably tried to use cover but it wasn't enough so he pulled a Wyatt Eurp and stood still in the open that's a real & viable strategy if your enemy can't hit the broad side of a barn which they couldn't he made the mistake of moving something Wyatt said never to do in a shootout due to moving is what would get you shot so if bullets failed to hit you 3 seconds in you did not move from place that was Bill's issue. I get him relying on the fence as once Bill shot those not burning the ones on fire would die & those raiders aren't stupid enough to try to leap over the fence of fire to get to the electric one beyond it! Bill & Frank's life isn't tact on they're showing true love as love is a theme and while Joel shows at the end of their episode he's smart enough to understand they died for love as he met them before this when they were still in love he was aware they loved one another he just shows up and finds out by how much. We see 3 flavors of love that Joel takes samples of: Frank & Bill true deep yet tragic love they went out on their own terms & told Joel to protect Tess, Sister of free Fedra: Crazy trauma love she'll kill anyone involved who killed her brother & was fine with ending Sam's life as a torment to his elder brother, Wiry love Marlene loved Ellie's mom promised to care for her daughter but she also holds a love for the world overall she had to weight & choose she chose to kill Ellie break her promise to her friend & save the world at the cost of her own love towards both Ellie & Ellie's mom. The sister is the most unconvincing badguy ever seen but I think that's the point she was never expecting to be leader she exists solely on the clout her brother built in his example so they understand she's mourning & vengeful and they're willing to let her be alone for now she may've transferred power to someone else after this period of mourning & murder was done. But honestly George Washington was also soft spoken he may've sounded as weak willed as she did but she doesn't get her chance to ride a motorcycle solo through a horde of zombies and maybe kill them with a chainsaw moment to really allow us to love her being the crazy leader. I think Hennry getting loud is to hint to Ellie & Joel what he want's done trying to bolster his fearfulness like the oldman said but I didn't even notice it till you said something. What you see here is them trying to recreate things from the game see Henery does leave Joel I think twice in the whole game's level bot times trying to protect Sam from his people. I don't recall Henry trying to run in game at the sniper scene but the whole point wasn't to stick around and see what they were doing. I hated how the sniper didn't put 2 & 2 together & just let Joel sneak up on him in the game Joel is targeted as you move across the board and Ellie & Henry are making attempts to force the sniper back on them and you had goons helping the Sniper so at points it makes sense why the sniper goes back to ellie do to he thinks his men will kill joel but they fail. TV sniper was pretty dumb. And I think TV Henergy made a serious lucky shot he was probably hoping to scare off Sam but it killed him. Crossing the river of death wasn't done without effort they seemed to have waited hours and several bullets to test if anyone was out there. I think they didn't consider any options due to they must go that way they don't have options not to. TV show ellie dragging & fixing joel is way more believable then game ellie inspite both having found sleds game ellie has to nearly die getting to a very unstable helicopter for her meds & she has to repair an injury that most likely needed surgery I scavenged for medical books but I don't think any of them covered through puncture wound care! So TV ellie making the sled & bargaining for meds is way better & more sound. Ep 7 isn't pointless cuz if she'd mentioned Rieley at the end of the show no one would know what she's talking about! We're showing a core person who makes ellie who she is not some rando so her loosing the love of her life shows her what can be lost so she fights for joel more & over all keeps her wanting to make relationships happen into the 2nd game till Joel's lies catch up to them. Otherwise you'd have to say sara's death didn't matter either and the whole intro of the show was also pointless. TV ellie vs game ellie but game ellie didn't do much better in distracting the men I did like how TV ellie pulled over the hutch that was nice. But yeah I hated wounded game & TV joel here they shouldn't be able to do any mass murder at this point. Joel's rampage wasn't random it's in the game.

I can stick up for Ellie with the snow in her hands. If she were to use gloves they would get wet quickly and her hands would freeze, at least if she does them bare handed after she can have a nice and warm pair of gloves to put them in

I will base my review of your video on the fact that you uploaded the whole thing in one go, which suggests you had already watched the whole series before making this video. While you made some very good observations. I totally agreed with the shoelace one, although I have an interpretation there: FEDRA officers are well off, so they do not need the same things that the citizens do. It could very well be the case that FEDRA does not allow workers to loot bodies while working. I also had an issue with Bill standing in the middle of the road. I also believe they could have used the deaf aspect but I realized it would’ve been weird considering Sam is 8. That’s the second grade. And there’s the fact that Henry and Sam have largely been sheltered from the real dangers of the world. There are more, but my main criticism for your video is that your analysis is very disconnected, in the sense that some of the “errors” you see are actually answered much later on. If you had made this video one at a time, then I would have accepted the lack of context leading one to assume certain things. Your video suggests a highly “scientific” and pragmatic, almost surgical way of analyzing media. So two points: I do not want you to take this as an insult, and I admit this is indeed me criticizing you (so yes, you might take it as ad hominem). First, I suspect your views are indicative of your world view, which in turn makes it more difficult for you to empathize. Second, I suspect you are a quite intelligent person (as in, academically smart). This is evidenced by your inability to suspend disbelief. There are certain things you also missed because they require a higher grasp of sociology. For example, you ask why the military officer shoots at Joel and Sarah. I’m surprised you did not get from context that when the soldier tells his superior that the little girl is injured, he is told that he should eliminate all “injured” people. It is possible to deduce that during that chaotic period, there already were suspicions by the military, government, etc that the “infection” was spread through human contact. I’d go on and on but I run the risk of being seen as someone who just wants to attack you, especially since I have already admitted to indeed criticizing you yourself and not just your video. So yeah, while some of the errors you pointed out were valid…. Going back to the knife scene… do you really not see the purpose of that scene? The fact that Sarah looks at it but does not take it? I don’t know if you are a writer, or have ever taken creating writing. I don’t know your credentials. Those don’t matter if you promote your video as an opinion. However, because you are marketing it as facts, I will have to say that your lack of knowledge in this regard shows. Again, I am fully aware that I may come across as attacking you personally, but because your video speaks with an air of authority, I have to question whether the source of that authority is valid or not. Because your video is sadly very misguided, I have decided neither to give it a thumbs up nor a thumbs down.

Thought this videos was just gonna be complains about the show but very valid. Lol

Explosions from them bombing the city

They could sense that tess was infected.

For EP 2 they had a podcast talking about the kiss of death with Tess also the bill and Frank is mainly for Joel after losing Tess it doesn’t matter in the story wise but matters for Joel’s character EP also it matters for Ellie’s character herself but not the main character I don’t get why all people want is action action and more action other than that I just love the last of us being a TLOU streamer as well

u didnt mention how the car that separated tommy and joel in ep 1 was driving on the sidewalk

One error in this video it is Neil Durkheim not Durkman. :) ( on the list of directors)

I feel like many of these criticisms are just you missing foreshadowing, parallels, and character development. Shame, was looking forward to some well thought-out critiques. Not sure if this channel is more focused on humor than actual analysis (a la CinemaSins), but this video falls short of making concrete arguments against the show's production, let alone pointing out 'errors'. And the attempts at humor were either weak or held back by trying to make the jokes serious criticisms.
