Now that you mention it, "the" scene did feel a bit rushed. A few things did happen too fast this episode. I feel like there could have easily been another 30 minutes of runtime to build up suspense.

The hordes attacked the town because of those roots from the pipes. It's like a hivemind thing or something. I can't remember if we had that in the game.

My guess is this series will diverge heavily from the game in this season because the game’s storyline alone would be too much of a drag. They need more things happening in different locations, like Jackson and maybe somewhere else.

I don’t remember the roots being a thing in the games, I don’t necessarily mind it. We’ll see what they plan with it.
