Legendary game designer Hideo Kojima has sung praises for a new Netflix post-apocalyptic show, proving that The Last of Us might finally have a worthy rival. Riffing on many familiar tropes from the post-apocalyptic genre, The Last of Us, on the surface, unfolds like a typical end-of-the-world thriller. However, what makes it a unique addition to the genre is its brilliantly written character beats, memorable performances, and commendable VFX. Even with its second season, The Last of Us seems to be going strong, making it one of the best post-apocalyptic shows of modern times.
