I was afraid, like a lot of us. Knowing who were responsible for the project provided some sort of safe net for nothing less than an approved, 7/10 kind of show.
But lets face it, this is Sony's legacy, this is HBO's bar level, this is Neil Drukmann masterpiece in videogame, this is Craig Mazin's chance to prove Chernobyl was not an accident, this is a very well assembled cast, this is Gustavo Santaolalla, 2 time Oscar academy winner, soundtrack. And it shows.
Hopefully, this will get more people into realizing how superb a storytelling can be in fully playable, action videogames. This show should only help the whole industry into getting its long due respect.
The pilot hits every box, and I can't wait till next Sunday.
