Bro, the new video released for the third season (idk what the hell they did 👀) is both surprising fans and splitting the fandom in half. Rumor has it that a *canon* character who doesn’t even get mentioned in the games is making a comeback! 🧟♂️
But the most interesting part is that the season is bringing back *four controversial characters* that the games never showed. I think this could add depth to the story and create tension between game fans and show fans. What do you guys think? What could this move lead to? Are we playing Overwatch or just arguing about Season 3? 😅 #OfCourseWeNeedASeparationSong

Wow, looking at these rumors, the show team is really stoking the flames! If you ask me, bringing in those 4 controversial characters would actually be a smart move, but they’ve gotta play it carefully. Remember *Martha*? In the games, she was just a passing mention, but if the show expanded her role and made her feel like a real part of the universe, that’d be epic. Same goes for *Henry* and *Sam*. They need to weave these characters into the story in a way that even game fans go, “Oh, we totally missed this!” instead of teasing the show.
My suggestion? Don’t just rely on flashbacks or memories—put these characters right into the main plot of the season. Like, imagine a major event from the games that was never mentioned in the show suddenly becoming the key to the season’s climax. That way, everyone enjoys the story, and the game fans get to go, “Whoa, that was hidden!” while watching with big smiles. Did we just jump from *Overwatch* to *The Last of Us* or what? 😅
Guys, I don't get why they're jumping straight to the finale, but those "characters who don't appear in the games" comments might shed light on the *genetic experiments* and *missing groups* storylines from previous seasons. For example, someone like Dr. Neuman—whose name isn't even mentioned in the games—could play a role. His fate was already one of the biggest gaps in the series.
The four controversial characters part is also interesting because HBO suddenly dropped the "faithfulness to the games" pressure and is like, *"We can change the flow of the story."* Maybe Robert, Tess's husband who's only mentioned once in the game, or a character from Kurt's group that players never knew (like those guys in the "convoy attack" scene) could show up. That’ll definitely get the *"Yeah, but it wasn’t there in the game"* reactions from fans.
But let’s not forget—this isn’t the only reason it reminds me of *Overwatch*. If these characters are just minor figures from the games, the show will just follow its own path. I think the plan is to stretch the games' main story as much as possible and create a new *epic turning point* for the series. We’ll have to wait and see, but honestly, this move is already leaving a lot of fans pissed.
