Baker and Johnson contributed to the development of the characters; for example, Baker convinced Druckmann that Joel would care for Tess due to his loneliness, and Johnson convinced Druckmann that Ellie should be stronger and more defensive.
Baker i Johnson doprinijeli su razvoju likova; na primjer, Baker je uvjerio Druckmanna da se Joel brine za Tess zbog njegove usamljenosti, a Johnson je uvjerio Druckmann da Ellie treba biti jača i više obrambeni nastrojena.
