KnackChap Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 Saw around an hour. There's so much missing context added in some scenes. Also that sequence with Sarah is sooo good. Also Idk why but Sarah looks like a CG character to me, must be her hair and skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarbonCore Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 Its also nearly 1:1 dialog and cutscenes with the game for the parts that are from the game, tells you how good the writing is in the game. People talk about Castlevania and Arcane and Edgerunners, but none of those shows use the game script and stories. They are their own thing.

Vamos Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 Hotstar streaming TLOU at 3.2 mbps Looks horrible. I guess I’ll download some 4K HDR version from tbp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0verlord Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 If you paid ₹1500 for Hotstar’s best subscription plan but don’t want to watch Hotstar’s 1080p low quality copy, instead you watch 4K Dolby Vision copy from the high seas… would you be free from the moral dilemma since you paid Hotstar and supported the show makers by paying them through Hotstar?

Yes, and also applies to shows that don't air on any service in your country and don't release on disks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotstar is so underrated for the quality of shows it offers. The 1500 plan is excellent value for money. However, I rarely use it for anything other than sports.

Not bad at all. But dark scenes are pixelated due to the low bitrate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RV1709 Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 Saw the first episode. Amazing. They actually fleshed it out quite a bit. Aesthetically, Marlene is the only one who looks like the character from the game so far. Whoever played Sarah stole the show in the first episode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dante77 Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 Just finished first episode. I think the reason why it is so good is that the source material was already great and they just had to copy paste. And they did it wonderfully! Seems like some of the scenes were taken direct out of game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dylanjosh Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 Watched it. Man i can't believe that was 80 minutes. I was so engrossed the time just zoomed by. Sarah's actress did a great job. Even though i knew it was coming the scene she died felt very emotional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
