So… how can you claim it’s faithful adaptation when you’ve neither read or played the games…? I’ve pointed out they are both stories using the lore to tell alternate stories, that’s a fact. Sorry.

Because I had eyes and ears and have seen examples of the changes that were made from the source material, and the decisions that were made for the show were bad decisions. I was planning on reading the books at some point, and it looks like that is what I will be doing instead of watching any future seasons of the show.

And that’s entirely on you for participating in a conversation about lore. Why are you piping up if you don’t even know any of it?

Because this is probably the only shot I will have to watch a live action adaptation of the franchise and they fucked it up. At least we have LOTR and The Last of US to look back on fondly.

Lmfao I’m not even sorry.

This is pretty low bar you have set for yourself. I wasn't looking for spoilers, and there was no reason to include it in your responses, you just wanted to hurt someone. You clearly don't care for the books, games, show, or the audience for them. Sounds like you have the same ignorance the showrunner has (oddly with the same name in your username too).

Uhh… you can’t have an opinion on that if you don’t know what’s canon and not.

They didn’t fuck it up, it got fucked up because some people had a campaign to make it something it was never going to be…

You claimed stuff was faithful, I thought you knew the differences, you even claim in this response you did, so how am I supposed to know?

Again, I’m not sorry that you paraded that you knew the lore, that’s entirely on you, and if you want to try and blame me. Maybe give a good look in the mirror first.

Why, because I didnt intentionally hurt you, you brought it on yourself by coming into a conversation and continually arguing your point, until I had to point out the fatal flaw to your logic in the only way you would see. And yet you still argue lmfao. Shows your intent here wasn’t to discuss, but to only bloviate about…. I don’t even know at this point.

I care deeply about this, that’s why I can point out its flaws and how Cavill wasn’t the hero people think he was.
