We’re past the days when every video game to film adaptation proved a massive dud. Some TV Shows based on games are genuinely great.
Was it really as “safe” as the article claims though? They diverted a full episode early in the show to have an hour long homosexual romance episode that completely changed the character paths and storyline for a major section of the game. I’m not really sure what “safe” even means in the context of the article’s argument.
