I think the only thing is the casting choice of Ellie just has to grow on me but other than that looks pretty great. The teaser maintains a bleak, dystopian tone that fans of science fiction and post-apocalyptic dramas would find fascinating. Without revealing too many details, the teaser brilliantly establishes the central plot and conflict in a very subtle, minimalistic way. Although the teaser has generated polarizing reactions from fans, it'll be interesting to see how the show pans out, considering the iconic stature of the game and intriguing plotline.
