TopicWould The Last of Us work as well if a mother figure was escorting a boy?

I *think* the mother figure would be perceived a little differently if she was placed in Joels spot. People would more likely be placed in a suspension of belief scenario if she was violently mowing through folks.

I feel theres also a double standard on a mother being a bit callous or jaded. Joel could get away with the tough and gruff old man schtick.

I would think perception to (video game) Tess would give a good indication. Obviously she believed in the mission a bit quicker, but she fit the topics premise the closest.

TWD Telltale game. Its two kids, technically.
