The previous week had seen intense critical reaction and it was well-deserved. This will be great television and a true cultural moment that will make media in this century. These changes are due to technological innovations in the way we tell stories. It is important to look back at the original material.<\/p>\n<p>Ten years ago Naughty Dog, an innovative video game company, stunned the world with its huge hit \u201cThe Last of Us.\u201d This game was based upon the blockbuster franchise. \u201cUncharted.\u201d These three exclusive Playstation 3 games have established a reputation as a studio that delivers immersive storytelling in a completely new way than previous video games. The \u201cUncharted\u201d Games made it feel like Indiana Jones. Players did archaeology with machine gun and stories were epic action movies.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But with \u201cThe Last of Us,\u201d The studio created a more contemplative and subdued narrative. Instead of creating an action game, the creative team developed a digital, interactive novel capable of frightening and moving players to tears.<\/p>\n<p>Storytelling is an integral part of videogames. These stories might have seemed very simple when a young Italian man was assigned to defeat a gorilla in order to save a pretty girl, but they have always been an integral part of gaming. The roleplaying games of the \u201990s, in particular, revealed that video games were a medium with immense storytelling potential, but \u201cThe Last of Us\u201d This is something unique. It was a big step forward in this medium, similar to how \u201cCitizen Kane\u201d Re-oriented Mainstream Film Structure or How \u201cThe Jazz Singer\u201d This was the first motion movie to include a synchronized, recorded musical score with speech and lip-syncing.<\/p>\n<p>But \u201cCitizen Kane\u201d  \u201cThe Jazz Singer\u201d More renowned for their technical and stylistic innovation. \u201cThe Last of Us\u201d This is a unique story not just for the creation of it, but also because of its storytelling skills. In this way, it\u2019s mOdere like \u201cCasablanca\u201d or \u201cThe Godfather.\u201d It is truly unique in videogames and in storytelling. Anyone who has ever played it knows this.<\/p>\n<p>The future is where video games and long-form television are replacing literature and film. They are so worried about their future, that intellectual property has become almost a god to the entertainment industry. This adaptation of \u201cThe Last of Us\u201d It was inevitable, just like Thanos. Once the players fell in love with Joel and Ellie&#8217;s characters, it was obvious that the story would be adapted for TV or film.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Last of Us\u201d This is a truly immersive experience. The game\u2019s sheer attention<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;The Last of Us&#8217; is a compelling story adapted from great source material that just so happens to be a video game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":721,"featured_media":1808975,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[546],"tags":[6962,8245,7854,12809,6919,6528,15376,9029,4440],"class_list":["post-1808972","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-federalist","tag-the","tag-adaptation","tag-decades","tag-faithful","tag-federalist","tag-game","tag-on-screen","tag-us","tag-video"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1808972","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/721"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1808972"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1808972\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1808975"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1808972"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1808972"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1808972"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
