    The prologue of The Last of Us. (The game, not the show.)

    That one broke me. I stopped the game, ugly cried for a bit, pulled my shit together then went upstairs and my daughter and I went out for ice cream.

      This. I hugged my daughter so hard after this scene. I don’t think I have ever recovered.

      You mean, the beginning of the first game with Sarah? Yeah, it was dark. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to continue that game after that, because usually, usually, that’s a thing directors leave for ending. It felt anticlimactic and wrong. And only a couple of chapters into the journey with Ellie I felt like I’m open to that game. If there wasn;t another person playing it for me, I could’ve just droped it.

        Yep, that’s the exact part I’m talking about. My daughter & only child was right at the same age & it hit pretty close to home. Couldn’t take it.
