In the show, this was downplayed, replaced by tendrils.
However, we now know that in season two, spores will play a much bigger role.
There’s less crouching for Pedro Pascal to do, but the plot is the same.
This plant-based disease turns you into not-zombies, and you don’t want it getting close to you.
Very little of the first game is actually about surviving the outbreak.
This changes in the second game.
It’salmost as if their stories mirror each otheror something.
And yet they both face very obvious disease-based danger.
But it’s the subway tunnels that cannot have the same impact without spores.
Since she’s immune, this doesn’t matter - she only wears the mask to avoid drawing suspicion.
However, she’s travelling with Dina, who does not know this.
From Dina’s perspective, sharing makes logical sense.
Ellie cannot (as far as Dina knows) make it through the tunnels with a broken mask.
If they share, tactically holding their breath while unmasked, they might just make it.
The spores are needed for this scene to exist, and this scene needs to exist.
