What I like about it is it took what was in the game, expanded on it, and approached it from a different angle. It only changed just one small detail and that turned a tragedy into a love story.
I can’t recall the exact details, it’s been a long ass time, but I think at some point you end up finding his hanging corpse. There’s a note and basically implies he committed suicide because he got bit trying to get away from bill, who was being a dick.
In the game Bill never overcame his paranoia and was unwilling to accept Frank’s attempts to let others into their lives, causing Frank to leave. Frank committed suicide after getting bit and Joel discovers his body and a letter he wrote for Bill, and later gives it to Bill as he leaves. I think it’s implied that Bill also commits suicide after Joel leaves.

Didn’t play the game… what detail did they change?
In the game you don’t find a lot out about Frank.

It’s real dark and sad.
Seems on-brand for that game.
We also know Frank liked brightly colored shirts. But yeah not much else.

The last part about him committing suicide after you leave I didn’t pick up on. That makes it way more sad.
Fucking dark
