I don't want that story to be ruined by directors/producers/writers taking creative liberties.

Some things just shouldn't be live-action movies. Look at all the anime movie failures. They were perfectly fine in their original animated format. No need for live action, except to keep people in the movie industry employed.

It's also just a way longer story than fits in a movie yeah?

That's what series are for! But it would need a good budget to honor TLOU

The road was not a blockbuster, blockbuster video games don't translate to the same level for movies.

I thought the same about Max Payne when I played it. What a story. And you know what? They ruined it...the movie was awful.
