  In the ps3 release the Fireflies hospital was dirty and dingy. In the sequel it’s all squeaky clean.

  In the first game the Fireflies are portrayed as shortsighted and incapable of even crossing the country with heavy weaponry. In the sequel they’re treated as if they were perfectly capable of making and disseminating a vaccine.

  Neil clearly didn’t like how the first games story turned out and made the sequel into his little fanfic.

    Your idea of a retcon is that the hospital looks different in the sequel game in that tiny cutscene you see? It’s not even true, the hospital is still dirty and dingy.

    You’re also claiming a character having a wishful opinion is a retcon.

    There’s zero plot or story changes here too to even start making the assertion a retcon happened. How and why are you escalating to accusing the entire TLOU2 of being a fanfic because of two extremely minor things about the previous game, one of which isn’t even true.

      It’s literally the definition of a retcon, and there’s way more, but you’re clearly not worth talking to.

        No it isn’t, and you can’t name more because there’s no more of the ending of the first game in the second. The video I linked shows the hospital is still dingy and dirty throughout, and you’re coming back with a cropped screenshot.
