On one hand I agree. And on the other, I want more. I want to know how Ellie handles Joel in the coming months, when she knows what she’s got to do. And what will ultimately happen to Joel when Ellie is finally forced to make the decision that been haunting her for the past months. As this might be the single hardest thing she’s ever had to do in her life.
I wouldn’t mind them starting over with new characters. But it’s hard for me to imagine they can do better than Joel and Ellie. How will they make you feel invested in a character as quickly as they did with Joel? Would it be a couple this times, just trying to survive? Maybe place at the beginning of the outbreak, trying to find safe haven in a military safe zone?
There’s just so much to this universe and we’ve only scratched the surface. It would be a shame if they didn't tell another story. In fact, if Sony wanted to, they could make a TV series that could dethrone the walking dead. The potential here is huge and may be too big to ignore.
