It's arty and human-less (which is to say breastless). It's really beautiful and would have made me cry if I weren't so stoic and brave.

I haven't ! I've definitely been meaning to though for whatever that's worth.

Journey is definitely a game had I known ahead of time what it was like, I would've waited and played with Kelly Image

also, the walking dead's writing is way fucking better than heavy rain. well worth mentioning

i just started episode 5 last night. even if the last one is disappointing, this is still a top 5 favorite game for this generation. can't wait for season 2

Yep and you're actually dead on the writing is way better and episode 5 does suck farts and still ends up a great fucking game

someone explain why the walking dead game is such a great game outside of the quality of the writing.

i only played the first episode, but it thought it was awesome

i think it's because it sucks you in and makes you care about the characters. even though it's kinda cool to play what's basically an old school point and click, the game definitely doesn't rest on it's graphics or gameplay

it's all about those feels

Yeah I have to admit, there aren't many games that elicit strong emotional responses from me, but walking dead pulled it off. The incredible thing is that it's not limited to a few major beats, but down to how you phrase a sentence you say to a child. It's masterful.

the timed parts where everyone is yelling and the decision bar lasts like 3 seconds is some of the most tense stuff ever in a game. i really like how they don't make it easy to reload to that exact spot if you fuck up

as far as worrying about people's reactions and choosing wisely, at the end of episode 2...

where you have the option to walk away or kick andy (dan?), i had no idea kicking him meant sending him into a goddamn electric fence. clementine witnessing that brutal death genuinely upset me :? it felt like the whole group silently hated me

It was just the NES graphics, right?
