The Last of Us producer: Season 2 may make viewers angry

Craig Mazin, producer of HBO's The Last of Us, said that the second season "may" make some viewers "angry." Mazin said that he had anticipated some strong negative emotions on the Internet, and that The Last of Us 2 was already a very controversial game and is still causing some heated debates today.

In an interview, Mazin said that the focus of the production team is to ensure that the second season tells the story in the way they think is right. Mazin does not want to deliberately cater to gamers, nor does he want to deliberately annoy the audience for shock effect.

“Some things are going to shock people, some things are in the game, some things are not in the game, and that’s fine,” Mazin said. “As long as it’s done with purpose and not for the sake of shock. We don’t intend to create social media panic, we just want to tell the story in the way we think is right.”

Mazin also said that he knew there would be some anger after seeing the audience's reaction after watching the first season. Even the casting of the HBO series has been sharply criticized, but he is satisfied with the final result.
