An adaptation so awful that it actually makes me appreciate the shit game it's based on.
Are there any other examples of this?

game is utter trash too
the cure to the zombie infection is inbreeding if Ellie in the show is any indication
It's a masterpiece compared to the show lol
Netflix DMC

Poor Hilda...
Well, yeah. The TV adaptation is much worse. The only good things are Dina and Jackson attack. Maybe the one flashback with Pedro Pascal and Ellie but that was mostly 1:1 to the game so I don't think they added much to elevate it from the original.
i thought normalfags were supposed to like the ending and that gamers were wrong?
Casting a girl with autism who can't show anger in a revenge story
Rip
The world and game style was so dope. Genuinely top 3 of all time. Why did they have to ruin it with such terrible characters and story line?
Maybe the source material was shit? The main reason people hate season 2 is because the story in TLOU 2 is so bad. Season 1 was well received
I HATE THE STORY IN THIS GAME!
*watches the tv adaptation
I HATE THE STORY IN THIS TV SHOW
anon, wtf did you think would happen?
there are literally zero good video game adaptations into films and/or tv.
an adpation so awful i'm going to keep watching it anyway!
y tho?
Normie like Switch "2"naming
Such npc behavior
got approved for 2 more seasons
What will the show be about now that they've run out of games
The OG tomb raider and resident evil movies are competent enough, if campy.
Arcane is unironically top tier and I think League sucks and is retarded.
next season will be abbys POV up until the scene in the theater
Nah the story of the 2nd game was shit too. The original game's story was just a mix of The Road and cliches from the walking dead and was an okay David Cage - tier movie game
Silent Hill 1 was fun.
ugly lesbian with hats on
Improvise, like it is expected from adaptations.
DMCtards immediately went on the defense to say "NO THE STORIES OF THE GAMES WERE GOOD ACTUALLY AND NOT REDDIT" after this slop released
Holy fuck those redditniggers deserved this.
You sound very annoying.
The story in DMC3 is great.
Cyberpunk : Edgerunner
but for real
I still can't believe it made by trigger
*blocks your path
Still not gonna play it.
Boomers like this show
Normalfags only watched it for Pedro Pascal
Damn, that's actually an impressive drop. How did they even do that?
Takashi Miike's Gyakuten Saiban was all right, if the intro was a bit rushed
One of the most obvious cases of nepotism. It'd be hilarious if it wasn't representative of almost every industry in existence in [current year].
Edgerunners is much better than Cyberpunk 2077 so it has the opposite effect
should've stuck to voice acting
This show is genuinely proof that video games work better as narrative mediums than live action works do.
But they revealed shit in a completely different way in season 2 whereas season 1 was almost shot for shot remake outside of crust bustin and retcon/changing the spores (which they them retconned in season 2 back to be like game for reasons)
It's actually getting kind of funny how much television acts like they're such a big medium standard and the games should be kid shit, and yet even with all of my problems for TLOU and other narrative games aside, they're still generally more engrossing and when done right can really make a player feel like they're a part of the push instead of simply pressing the buttons to make the next cutscene happen. Neil Druckmann trying to adapt his revenge porn story to TV was never going to end well, and the huge downgrade in quality while the story bends itself over backwards to include new scenes to try to justify everything happening feels like he 180'd in trying to get people to hang on as much as possible.
Didn't work, fucko.
Stop making fun of my TV show, you chuds! I'm a Hollywood director now!
Ace Attorney like that other anon said. Also the anime for it was decent as well.
TLOU2's story was shit in the game, and the interactivity didn't really add to the story at all, so I find it hard to believe the show could be that much worse at telling the story
Go back to Anon Babble
abby is already a pretty unlikeable character made worse by casting a really bad actor
killing off noel was a bad move
the TV series has made some pretty weird changes to the story and they didnt pay off
by the time the final episode aired they destroyed most of the interest people had
so I find it hard to believe the show could be that much worse at telling the story
they basically pad out the run time with characters doing extra scenes to try to justify how what got to where, and dina and jessie among others treating ellie like a baby-brain retard that needs everything explained to her logistically so they can write out their plans and actions instead of just fucking doing them and having the characters interact normally
Can Carnival Phantasm be counted as an adaptation of Melty Blood?
so I find it hard to believe the show could be that much worse at telling the story
season 1 btw
No, because it's adapting a manga. Like 99% of anime.
pokemon
Well, the manga is at least partially based on Melty Blood, since it includes characters that aren't in Fate / Tsukihime / Kagetsu Tohya and are exclusive to MB
needs everything explained
That's the worst about nu/llywood writers. They treat their audience like lobotomites, believing their writing to be breathtakingly complex... when it's really just a contrived and convoluted mess. Also the handling of passage of time is getting increasingly worse in every form of media -- I don't know if that's intended or a byproduct of a society overdosing on media written by lobotimites for lobotomites. In many respects the writing is so terrible and terribly predictable, that has become the literary equivalent to ceiling birds -- nu/llywood niggers don't perceive the bad anymore, it just is omnipresent.
The show could have been good if they got the characters right, paced it properly, and JUST FOLLOWED THE GAME
It was perfectly fucking laid out and they fucked it up. They just couldn't help meddling with it, the fuckers. They had a god damn home run and they decided to walk it and they lost the game.
Season 1 was okay because the first game's story is easy to follow with a beginning, middle and end. Part 2 just doesn't lend itself well to an adaptation because the narrative is too akwardly paced with flashback sequences acting as moments of levity during the darker parts of the story. Also, the gameplay segments are extremely important to the core narrative. Without that interactivity, you've got nothing to work with.
That's adapted from the movie game avout wendigos?
Mortal Kombat
TLOU TV show could've been so much better just by having an attractive person play Ellie. What is it with HBO and DEI? First TLOU and now Harry Potter.
I don't even get how they're still alive, they keep losing money on almost everything.
BUST that
CRUST!
except it has nothing to do with the game so it might as well be its own thing
mk is the only real answer. That shit was better than the game
ugly white girl (to the point even my mom made fun of her) paired with an attractive jewess
You cannot convince me humiliation rituals aren't a thing after this.
Learn how the world works. Jews have an infinite amount of money. It's not about the money. It's about the message
They needed someone that looked like a kid for s1
I'll never forget them casting a bunch of black people with white mops on their heads as relatives of the dragon girl in that shitty game of thrones prequel series they made.
I'm kino
Wtf??
Reminder that TLoU is Israeli propaganda.
why tho?
it shows that "gamer" standards are so low that they praise trash that even HBO watching women won't tolerate
Arcane is unironically top tier
S1 is, S2 is dogshit.
obviously.
I hated it.
terrible Ellie casting
characters say too much fluff for the sake of getting the point across - the script assumes the audience is dumb. they butchered Joel's death scene and the porch scene with the additional lines. show, don't tell.
Ellie's characterization is also a big miss - they capture her childishness and immaturity BUT they don't capture enough of her mean streak. The lack of a journal and the inability to read her inner thoughts is a huge loss for the show.
some added context exclusive to the show from ep6 (if that's the Joel episode) is really good and is easily the show's best but every other ep is mostly trash. Pedro pascal is an amazing actor though and captured the essence of Joel mostly, even without saying the game apparently
Off the top of my head:
Monster Hunter
Resident Evil 2 and onwards (the first one was okay)
Street Fighter Legend of Chun Li
Tekken
Dead or Alive
Silent Hill
thridworldshitskin1060poorfags upload tons of cringe ass reaction videos
"hurr durr it actually revived game!!!!!"
It already sold 20m copies and sold 10m more copies after half-sale & dlc as I remember
this weebcopedrama is so retarded that makes me believe every edgerunnerfaggots are severely retarded toddler
Real talk anon, you think this'll impact Heretic Profit and Naughty Dog in general?
Surely this will finally establish to the suits that Druckmann doesn't know shit of anything
No, recent years have shown that you can release shit and as long as it's not a complete flop it's successful enough
as a zoomie it's kinda bizarre nobody outside of internet talking shit of edgerunner, you can find frierenfags,dungeonmeshifags, csm,jjk,demonslayer etc etc but edgerunner? no way, even japs didn't knew it till internet gaijins shilling it to their gut, it's kinda manipulated
Corlys' actor ironically ended up being one of the best parts of the show up to this point. And it does make the whole thing with the Velaryon kids even more fucking hilarious
No really! They're totally the zesty black guy's kids! promise
all 3 look pale as all fuck
pretty sure Naughty dog didn't get a single cent from this shit (and why should they ?)
I read some nerds opinion the other day:
with books or comics, film "elevates" the source material, that's not to say the result is better, but its bigger, adds a new dimension, the things on the page are now walking and talking etc.
with video games, film/TV is actually a step down from the source, because it's essentially just the game but with none of the interactive storytelling, a different art direction, characters that can never be exactly what was in the game etc.
the only way to make a video game adaptation good is to use the setting but not rehash the story from the source.
Silent Hill
Mortal Kombat (1995)
Mortal Kombat: Annihilation
Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
I would also consider Street Fighter and Super Mario Bros., but they are more nostalgic and "so bad, it's good"
day 5
suddenly we're on day 13
found footage was more interesting than the movie
kek is that poster real?
S1 was good… not counting episodes 3 (le gay guys) and 7 (flashback)
Lots of people wanted to see if Druckman was stupid enough to do it again
An awful adaption that only got people calling it shit because of the plot twist the game had that everyone considered shit..
Why is humpty dumpty in tlou?
Ellie in the tv show only killed a single person in season 2 and no dogs
Why did they change this?
It really only takes the name
Setup is some goobers find a hotel in the middle of nowhere and are trapped in a muderous groundhog day loop unless they can survive...UNTIL DAWN
What games do you wish got a live action film adaption?
am I supposed to download this? fucking retard. just upload it to stremable
he could've just watch any of random footage of niggs killing random bystanders for no reason
Movie so good that it was basically made canon and the games still use movie's soundtrack (including the main theme).
Dead or Alive
DOA was fun and had hot chicks so it's a win
change the way all the characters act
change the nature of demons
change the story completely
make Lady suck
make Vergil suck
still call it Devil May Cry
The only good thing about this anime was the Asmongold parody
Christopher Lambert is the only name on the poster
Should be Robin Shou. I remember when i was a kid I was mad that they change Raiden's actor from Lambert to James Remar in Annihilation, but upon rewatching both, it was a good move. Lambert is a terrible actor and his Raiden was awful.
can't have autism shitlord be too unsympathetic
Did you miss the part where it says he regretted feeling that way?
They're turning game 2 into like 3 seasons so fucking nothing is happening.
From a lore perspective, it's a complete and total fuck up. The only reason they did it was because they were afraid that normies wouldn't be able to tell the two families apart.
Sonic 3, but it took two painfully medicore films to get there
Then hire a kid who looks the part and wait 5 years for season 2 instead of rushing it.
playstation 1
playstation 2
playstation 3
playstation 4
playstation 5
from a lore perspective
Nobody in the actual book (if you could call it a book) believed the kids were Laenor's. They had no Valyrian features whatsoever and all 3 of them were spitting images of Harwin Strong. It's pretty clear the way the the narrative's told to you, through the perspective of maesters collecting accounts, that everyone knew what was up but being outward with it got you your head on a poke.
So it really is no different. It makes Viserys out to be a retard but then again they already made him out to be a pedo by having Alicent be far younger and a friend of Rhaenyra's growing up. Guy's reputation's in the shitter as is.
This scene made me walk out of my living room
CDPR is one of the state funded project by polaks, muh ESG, muh BlackRock, etc, etc, etc, etc, shit drama repeated hundreds of times. Witcher is already combination of post modernism bullshit & medieval fantasy which perfectly fits the globehomo agenda,
CDPR was only great for embodying soul of Eastern Europe in Witcher 1, and a fraction of somewhere on the cp2077 main mission, probably the part where Johnny Silverhand said never stop fighting, otherwise their products are golem itself
it's time to let go, they already made the worst cybertrash you can think of called edgerunner 3 years ago, (not to mention trigger is hack) shitskinspics & jeetvirals shilled it like fucking blade runner while it's 3/10 at best
Well, long story short, you should let go CDPR, everything is contaminated, your son will be faggot at 50% or degenerate at 50%, grim.
I regretted it because all violence is equally bad!!
Like I said, Israeli propaganda.
playstation 1
There was no "Playstation 1". There is the "PlayStation" and the "PS One". They are different consoles.
i've seen the thread on tv. why did this make you leave your living room?
gunshot to a cliffhanger
hope you like waiting a year and a half to two years for the next season if they weren't shooting both at the same time
God imagine the fucking audacity to shit around so much for filler because you want to explain and put everything into one season that you literally decide you're gonna give Abby her own dedicated season instead, and hope to try for a finale season after that.
Do you faggots seriously watch this garbage show?
I liked Silent Hill a lot, good movie
i don't
i just osmosis the turmoil of the human debris that did
Nah they just had to get a good actress who could pull it off like Tom Holland playing a 15 year old at 21 in the Spiderman Homecoming. The problem is she can't fuckign act
i've seen the thread on tv
And you let it die? I will never forgive you.
Apparently so. I really hate hate-watchers. Studios don't care if you hate their shit, they only care about views and social media interactions.
The leak gave me a chip on my shoulder and I didn't finish the game in 2020, playing it again removed from that it's actually great and feels really brutal in a good way on harder difficulties.
But the performances in particular are well done to the point it sets a really high bar for a TV adaption. I don't care that bella looks like a mongoloid, I care that her performance is so flat. Abby is so much more intimidating in the game and Ellie is much more believably fucked beyond repair.
The only good thing to come out of this franchise is that one SFM
You know the one
I like the games story though. You just have to accept it as a tragedy where the world is doomed and everyone dies
wait tv show ends like this? kek
Pedro Pascal as Joel carried the show and Ellie is legit insufferable in Season 2. It's universally agreed that Bella Ramsey fucking sucked this season the only question is whether the script itself is the main problem or just general miscasting.
Compounded problems, really. Bad scripting, bad handling, making Joel's death even worse by being so dramatic about it versus him telling Abby to get it the fuck over with in the game, bad acting, weird changes for the sake of changes, excess padding with random call forwards and certain characters being introduced without much overlying context until next fucking season, the works.
Aye, the 90s had a LOT of these.
TV producers are all fart sniffers and will NEVER respect source material, they will always think they can do it better. I wonder where their arrogance comes from. Something about their upbringing?
The TOLU2 storyline is also getting stretched across 3 goddamn seasons which is absolute lunacy.
TV and film folks are a different breed of thing when it comes to adaptations. They want to put their stamp on it. Their interpretation, their mark. They want to do what THEY want to do, forget the source material. Only someone that actually is familiar with the source will give a fuck. Meanwhile some shitlord like Adi Shankar will get uppity that he wasn't the one to "revive" Devil May Cry when DMC5 was announced, considering what his War on Terror allegories became for his stupid animated series, and whoever ran the Halo TV series was proud that they didn't expose themselves to the actual source material because they wanted their take to be all their own - and we all know how that disaster turned out.
You fucking take that back right now.
Is he going to be ok?
its 4 seasons anon
if you think Prince of Persia is bad, you're a brainlet
Fuck up you zoomer trash. Stop looking at things as ironic
The best part of all of this is watching normies make fun of the potato. Putting her next to normal looking people was a mistake. At least in season 1 there were only acouple of co stars on screen with her at a time
Correct, you want to find out about the games story? Play the fucking game. Sick of adaptations
imagine being druckman
fire director that made original game
Part II rejected by gamers
Season 2 rejected by viewers
it's like a self inflicted humiliation ritual
ugly bird kid
I'm sure you retards have a thread over there. If anyone here gave a fuck about the show, we know where you are.
It didn't adapt anything from the game, that's why. It is its own thing in the setting and all connections with the gane were established in the table top
At least the all got bucked
troy baker's joel dies
druckmann spends the next few years trying to defense force about how joel was a terrible person
pedro pascal's joel dies
not long after, druckmann is again defense forcing his own retcons about why joel is such a shitty person
It's all an excellent comedy.
Lol revisionist faggots need a bullet
Don't forget he recently came out and said "Yeah. The Fireflies totally would have been able to make a cure if Joel didn't do what he did."
Dude is still trying to justify his stupid ass choices in TLOU2.
You have shit taste in media unc. Everything you like is dogwater
(you): "Liquid shit is terrible, but a turd nugget is amazing!"
The OG tomb raider and resident evil movies are competent enough
angelina jolie was hot, no doubt of that, but that movie was crap anon, and forget about the re movies, the director hired his wife 4 or 5 times and that's it
i mean it has the visuals but man what a turd that was, a shame because the cast was decent
They butchered live and learn for more Jim Carrey screen time so it goes down some pegs.
I know this doesn't apply to most Anon Babble but I can't believe paramount kept that jewish e-celeb nepo baby as sonic for the spic dub when they got vegeta's va for shadow.
Now that we have an adaptation of a video game in a more respected medium that turned out to be decisively inferior to the game's story, does it not prove not beyond a doubt that video games are actually art or at least can be?
It proves that the writer is a hack, Hollywood isn't gonna care for anything else.
By adapting the game that everyone also disliked? Did you forget about the videos of people snapping their discs in half when Abby went golfing? That entire franchise basically died with that scene, it's a masterclass in pissing off fans, the next Naughty Dog game won't sell well because almost everyone hated TLoU2's story.
unc
Can't wait to see BLUE in theatres!
Next guy!
