HBO’s The Last of Us makes a number of significant changes from the video game, and the show’s creators have discussed this and more in a new interview with Variety. The interview is full of spoilers, so keep that in mind if you choose to read on.
In the video game, the outbreak spreads from spores, but in the TV series, it stems from cordycep tendrils. Speaking to Variety, series co-creator and game director Neil Druckmann said, “We had a lot of conversations about what else can we do with the vector other than bites.” He added: “We looked at concept art where there’s this implication of the fungus growing under the skin. What if that was the thing? It’s not so much about the bite, they just need these tendrils to go from one host to another and that’s how the infection spreads.”Come from Sports betting site VPbet
