I'm hearing it's a good story, good looking etc. but that there's not that much "gaming" in it.

I dont know diddly about the video games. Last system I owned was Atari in the 80s.
So I went into this with zero background.
I thought the first episode was great. Really enjoyed it. Cant wait until next Sunday.

Have the writers on the show touched on whether they'll stick to the chapters of the video game in this first season, or will they fill in some of the gaps? Because there are some pretty significant gaps in the story time wise, mainly the jumps from Boston/Lincoln to Pittsburgh and then from Pittsburgh to Wyoming.

Ya this is really excellent. I'm enjoying it (never played the game)
Re-watched episode 1 today before episode 2 tonight.
It really is fantastic and that first 30 minutes might be the best 30 minutes of Television. Just so good.

This episode is pretty terrifying so far.
The way they go into detail about how the virus spread, last episode and then this one, is extremely disturbing, but needed. Sets up story. It's very stark to see normal times in 2003 when this started to spread.

The behind the scenes interview at the end provides more context on how they made the clickers as well as small details they changed from the game (i.e. the spores in the air spread the fungus in the game, not so much in the tv show)
Once again just phenomenal stuff.
The openings are so good and add so much to the background of what's happened.

Loved it. Think the casting of the main characters thus far is perfect.
Ellie, Joel, Tess. All great.
I'm hoping it they do a second season, that it's not the second game and fills in time in-between.

As far as I know, the first season is the entire first game.

Another solid episode.
It's interesting to see the differences between the game and the show and how they handle different events.

The death of Tess for instance. Her game death is quite different, but not as dramatic for TV
