For those who have played the original Naughty Dog videogame would know that the story is going farther and farther away from the original story after the second episode. For many, the third episode turned out to be the final nail in the coffin. The third episode was lewd, uncalled-for and completely out of line. The locales are incorrect too. For instance, 10 miles West of Boston and the backdrop is that of the Rocky Mountains (filmed in Alberta!). And the buildings do have junk on the floors but the walls show fresh concrete after at least twenty years of in no use with ripped ceilings and water inflow and so on.

The Last of Us has turned quite unimposing since the third episode.
