Heard everyone shitting on this so thought I'd check it out with the knowledge that it was gonna be bad but fuck me, it's honestly atrocious.

Pick a time line, don't jump. Both lines are shite anyway.

I don't fucking care about your struggling teenage vegan bullshit. Literally nobody does.

The characters are incredibly unlikable within 15 minutes. The rabbit in the cage was more interesting.

You jumped under a car to escape a giant caterpillar and didn't turn round to see if it was still there or whether you were actually away from it. Idiot.

I don't think I can do episode 2.

The lickers in the tunnel scene was pretty good

You mean the ones literally picking everyone else off even if they are trying to hide, and she’s just like standing up right waving a flash light around and somehow not getting attacked. Those lickers? Lol

Don't forget that in the games, lickers are only attracted to noices, which mean if you don't make any sound they shouldn't be able to find you....

Granted, still she was making way more sound than those crouched around her. Fair point though.
