The Game Is Hardcore - I Need You to Take This Kid

We really get the opportunity to establish Ellie well beforehand. We see this unique relationship that Marlene has and the involvement there. There's this rich history that we are hinting at that will become perfectly plain and clear as the season goes on. One of the biggest changes between the game and the show is the game is hardcore. That everything you're experiencing, everything you're seeing is either completely from Joel's perspective, Ellie's perspective, or for a tiny bit Sarah's perspectives.
