Can't get over the first game.

I'm trying to move on from the game but that last scene in Season 1 is haunting me. I don't want to forget or stop feeling but I keep listening to the music 'Alive Inside' and I just feel a bittersweet feeling of happiness and sadness and I know it probably sounds pretty stupid but this game has really affected me and I'm not sure what to do.

  • Well It affected me for a while after I finished, but you'll get over it eventually

  • That's good to hear. I'm just lying here not in the mood for anything but listening to sad music.
    How long did it take for you to get over it?

  • The best thing is not to lay around like you said you have been doing. Get up and be around people, or get some work done, or watch something funny. This is a game and shouldn't ruin your life.

  • I know. It's kinda stupid. I know the game's not going to ruin my life, I've felt like this before. Just hearing help from others usually helps me so I thought there's no better place than here, right?

  • Yeah hang in there. I felt bad too. They know how to tug at your heart strings.

  • Feeling a lot better after getting some work done and some good family time with a movie. That was great advice man.

  • Then the game was a success. It want's you to feel that way. I personally didn't get distraught. with no time left's ending. I was sad that Lee lost his life, but i was more angry that Clementine disobeyed everyone in the group from Christa and Lee warning her the stranger was not sincere, to walking out in the open to be captured, resulting in Lee being bit and dying, Ben dying if saved, Kenny being separated and the group being all over the place.

  • Yeah I feel you. Only two games made me feel like that when I finished them. The Walking Dead: Season 1 and The Last of Us. It took days for me to want to play another thing. I was like: "What the hell am I supposed to play now?!" XD

  • I remember I played this game like a million times when I first discovered it because I couldn't get over how good it was. That last scene is the closest I've ever come to crying over a work of fiction.

  • Yeah...I spent the whole night after finishing Season 1 just thinking and listening to music too. To be honest, I don't mind staying in that state...helps me think, and I like how TellTale have managed to make me feel so down about a character on a TV screen. That's who you know it's a good game.

  • Your not alone, It affected me too.

    Don't play anymore of the game, because after the 400 days DLC the game is just, well it doesn't ever reach that standard ever again, just complete crapiness is what S2 is.

  • More than four moths have passed since I finished the Season 1. Still I thinking on it. This game made such strong impact on me as nothing else could. I think I won't get over it, but I don't mind it. I barely can wait for season 3. I'm afraid, I became an addict. :)
    Here's my advice: Live through the feeling. Find somebody whom you can discuss about it. This feeling will never pass away, but may fade if you not hide from it.

  • I Felt the same way, so your not alone... Every time I re-play it the same feels come back

  • It did affect me as well, for a while at least after finishing it. But now I'm used to this

  • Amen.

  • I felt a bit empty after the s1 ending, but the only thing that's ruined me for days was Breaking bad lol

  • Nononono, trust me. We all felt like that. That's the default feel.

  • I'm replaying right now, on ep 2, and this game is an absolute classic and will forever generate feels for me
