The Last of Us (HBO series - spoilers within) (1 Viewer)

[nolastyle]

Gamers - not sure how to ask this or get it answered
(Not sure if it’s spoilery or not
But how obsessive does the game get with the actual day to day ‘reality’ of 20 years into a dystopia
Like does it matter how the medical fungal detectors stay powered?
Do the deal with agriculture or sanitation, et al

These details were some of my favorite parts of Station Eleven

Not very much dealing with day to day reality, except for one major plot point that I wont spoil. For example, there is no foraging for food, growing crops, or finding batteries for the handheld devices. Everything is just there. There are a few gameplay episodes of everyday life but those are there to introduce newer characters, tell about the next journey, or show a novel challenge. Not sure i can go into any details about it without spoiling what may come.

first ep well crafted, but as a neophyte i ask, why set this in present day when we know it's not occurring

apparently, the game is year 2033... somewhat believable, given the course we're headed

You’re more confident about 2023 than I am; it’s only January, haha.

in a meta way, i'd argue that we're kinda there already
it's something i realized after watching Station Eleven - ever since 9/11 we've been in a cultural dysfunction
that our collective trauma has caused us to do some really really inexplicable, boneheaded things

those of us who lived through katrina are probably still living through a low grade dystopia without realizing it
and same with covid if we're being honest

Really awesome having a Sun night show to look forward to again.
Excited to see how the world appears outside of the 'safe' zone.
