Druckmann:
“We need a certain amount of action, or violence, that we can use for the mechanics so that you can connect with Joel and get into a state of flow. Let us eliminate all but the most essential violence.”
The rationale is that a visual excess of violence is not necessary, but just and necessary. The essential. In this way, it becomes possible to make the viewer feel and dive into the experience that the series offers.
“So you would really feel like you’re connected to this avatar on the screen and you’re seeing the world through their eyes.”
