Even if I didn't play the game I think we understand the type of relationship that Joel and Tess but I don't see why they needed to expand on it
yeah i mean i wouldn't care but they keep bringing tess up every 5 minutes and i'm at a loss because i don't know anything about her or her relationship to joel or anyone else because they haven't told us. i gather they were good friends, but that's about
like i said, maybe an ep in the time jump to show how they met and built their relationship? and also what he was up to in those years and the fallout with tommy, etc

It's easy enough to use your imagination to what the relationship was like between Joel and Tess or even the stuff that Joel and Tommy did to survive after the outbreak
sure, but then what am i watching this show for if i have to write it myself?
it does help and make for a stronger show if you take the time to build a foundation with this supposedly important stuff. vaguely telling over and over is powerful weak
