About the opening and a detail in the 1st episode...

- First rule of zombie apocalypse stories: don't EVER try to explain, in a serious capacity, how a zombie apocalypse could happen. Its ALWAYS stupid. Because the premise of zombies existing is, itself, already stupid. And, yes, they are zombies, not InfEcTeD. Take the same route as the game did, in this case: leave it more obscure.

- Second, and this is a detail, but i was curious to read your opinions about this: what did you guys think of the conversation at the end, regarding Ellie's immunity? To me it felt like they directed it in a way that didn't give the information the necessary impact it should have. Not like it was a big plot twist or anything, but it was kinda treated as a conversation in the background? Like in a casual way? Maybe it was the sound :/... i cant explain, exactly, i thought it was weird. What did you guys think?

Nevertheless, a good start, 8/10.

These are not zombies, do keep up! Fungal infection causing behavioral modification until the host is exhausted.

I don't care how you try to spin this. They are zombies.

It was already obvious you do not care about facts (have you been sniffing mold, per chance?) It is the other readers that are now informed of your fallacies. Bless your heart.

I don't care how you spin this. You are an imbecile.

can they be killed with a gunshot to the chest?

At least the Zombies die from normal, deadly to human, wounds. I don't think they have processed Ellie's immunity and probably E2 will be about that. Depeche Mode "Never Let Me Down Again", well chosen and a good sign. Agree 8/10.

"I don't think they have processed Ellie's immunity and probably E2 will be about that" -> you are probably right.

Also loved Depeche Mode at the end.
