I'm weirdly okay with that. Love me some Walking Dead.

Are we talking Telltale's Walking Dead in this thread?

Here's an album of screenshots from Season 1 featuring dialogue you probably didn't see:

"It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

I know people who play a mafia variant on it(Trouble In Terrorist Town). Otherwise, it's sorta like Minecraft in that "do random shit in a sandbox" way.

Massive Source sandbox where you can build contraptions with gears and levers and basically play around with physics.

Also mods for garry's mod where you can play custom gamemodes.

The Wolf Among Us:

Choices I made:

Spoiler:
Gave Faith money
Defended Snow to Crane
Went to Toad's first
Did not prevent the Prince's death (Did you have to go there first?)

Spoiler: TWAM
I'm not sure how to save the Prince. In my first run, I went to Toad's first, and then when I went to the Prince's, he was dying and I couldn't figure out how to save him. In the second runthrough, I went to the Prince's first, and he was already dead when I got there.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

Yes

Which is annoying because Mr. Toad getting robbed seemed way more urgent and still you end up getting there too late.

GOG.com has Freespace 2 on sale this week. Any opinions/experience with it? It looks cool enough, but it IS from 1999...
Retired as of October 2014.

Same choices as me. I think the last one is the only one I was really conflicted about in the moment.

Walking Dead was great until
the moment I realized absolutely none of your choices make any difference to anything. At the very least your actions should've been reflected in Clem's character.
Clem was the best part, so I'm still kinda hyped for S2.
I'll explain it to you. You have to get someone else to understand it for you.

This is a valid criticism of the game. Keep in mind, however, that this was Telltale's first time allowing branching pathways in a story.

Strange. I went for
Dee instead of the Huntsman, and I'm legitimately surprised more people didn't. I really don't think Huntsman is guilty nor does he have any useful information.


Also, for the record, I
didn't take Grendel's arm
, as I assume most people did. I also
didn't tell Beast about Beauty
, which will probably have ramifications in episode 2. I also didn't
hurt Toad
.

For some reason I thought it was a life or death matter because it looked like
Dee was about to impale himself on something
. Had I known it was for info I wouldn't have made the same choice.

there doesn't need to be a ton of different routes, but some sign of the impact you're having would be nice

I actually thought that's what they were doing with Clem, and that her personality would be determined by the choices you made and how you treated her, it would've been really cool if the final choice of whether she shoots Lee was made automatically depending on how you played the game
I'll explain it to you. You have to get someone else to understand it for you.

I chose Dee, who the hell actually thinks the Huntsman is anything but an alcoholic


Edit: Possible Future Spoilers? Interesting theory.
