Yes, I am am really eager to see how this turns out given the talent behind the production.

I might be more eager to see how this ties into the mechanics of AAA games and storytelling. Several people on this forum have said they never were able to get into Last of Us because they just didn't find it fun. So would a TV series allow them to enjoy the story? Or would it lose what made it special because you are throwing away the "moments a film editor would cut out"? What are they adding to compensate? Will AAA games start shifting to mechanics of exploration and discovery rather than those of challenge and conflict? Would such games become the best way to tell stories in the future?

It's cool to be on the bleeding edge of a very interesting time for storytelling moving into the future.
