Yeah, this is one of the things I really like about it, it totally leans into being an adaptation of a videogame, it doesn’t shy away from its roots.
There’s so many little moments from the games that make it into the story. Stims, radaway, chems, fusion cores, pip-boys. Plus so much of the music, not just the 50s pop tunes, but the score as well.
As much as I loved TLOU I think this has done a better job actually adapting the game. It feels like a love letter to the game. A continuation really.
