  • Probably because if he wouldn't keep the music off youtubes stupid content ID system would take down his videos. But this video seemed to have music.

    Are there any playthroughs for this episode besides RabidRetrospectGames? He always keeps the music off.

    Now that I think it through the choices were really underwhelming and in the end the only ones that mattered were cheap and bare minimum. They really wasted a chance to make different endings here.

    I hate to admit it, but yeah, this episode was underwhelming in the choice department. Outside of that, though? I thought it was great.

  • Yeah, what it lacked in choices it made up with very satisfying action scenes and pretty good dialogue. Also Pete was in it, Pete is always a plus.

    My only issue is that it's 15$, considering what we got in the end. A fun game, but very short. 10$ would have been more appropriate.

    I was actually thinking along those same lines. Each episode being $3.33 each, totaling out to $9.99.

    But honestly, speaking from experience, I have spent $15 on much, much stupider things than this mini-series (which I actually enjoyed), so I like to think of it as a (mostly) good investment in comparison to what I could have bought with that $15.

    Quite honestly, for a series like Michonne short Episodes don't really bother me, because Episode 2 had some of the best action sequences an

  • I saw it. It had music, and the episode was awesome.

    I already watched it. It does have music. Can't be sure if you mean some scenes or just the whole thing.

  • I'm disappointed. It didn't suck but it wasn't good either. I'll call it 'OK'.

    • Choices. You had the opportunity TellTale! What happened? ---
    • The way they handled the main plot did not satisfy me at all. They spent... What? 10 minutes dealing with it before a bigger shitshow took place? ---
    • The daughters subplot was well handled and it was really emotional +
    • Character development +
    • Out of character behavior especially in a determinant branch. It felt cheap. -
    • Lame, meaningless deaths. -

    It wasn't that bad, it was still enjoyable but they could've done way better. 6.5/10

  • How is that a Sarita situation?

    The finale was ok. The series as a whole was still weak for a telltale series IMHO. The hallucination daughter scenes while I understand are central to the plot didn't really add much. I rate it a 6 as I also see Michonne fought against mutants with the power of invisibility

    Not immune to getting an eyepatch though.

  • Guys you do know that Flog is seeing all of this in her feed regardless if its spoiler tagged. It's pretty rude to do in what is clearly a spoiler free thread.

  • Hey, have you've seen the episode yet? If you have why not give some spoiler free deets. I always enjoy hearing your impressions on episodes.

    I'm disappointed at they handled the negotiation, to be honest, but it's still okay nonetheless. I like that they finally established personality for some of the minor Monroe ex-inhabitants during the trade, so that's something. It might go in an unexpected way. It did catch me off-guard.

    Damn, it is kind of hard to talk about what I didn't like about the episode without mentioning any spoilers. In my eyes, there were some questionable writing decisions, especially regarding choice-branching. The thing with decisions in this episode is that there can be a whole lot of variations, as far as I've seen, but said variations are subtle, or irrelevant to the overall story. Some tweaking here and there could've gone a long way.

    More information on the Mobjack massacre and the scavengers will be revealed, along with the fate of the bags of guns and ammunition that Sam supposedly stole. Monroe's state will be discussed.

    Fans of #DoorOrPhone2k16… I'm really sorry for your loss.

    One of the perks of 'What We Deserve' is that there are multiple endings! And also, you'll be tense during most of the first half of the episode. Hype yourself up.

    As @Deltino said earlier, cinematography in this episode was great, along with the scores. I'd really like to congrat the sound effects team in specific moments. You know when Michonne beheads a walker at the Mobjack, in presence of Pete, Sam and Greg? And when she kicks the bald African-American Monrovian into the sea, on the next episode? There's a lot of that sound effect, and I love it.

    The episode barely scratches one hour, but I'll let that pass, because the pacing in this episode was effective.

    On second thought, I'm rating this episode 7.5/10 instead of 6.5/10. Telltale Games has really improved since Season 2. Don't blame me for not knowing Game Of Thrones and Tales From The Borderlands.

  • 5 dollars a pop for 50-60 minute episodes each. I understand it's a mini-series, but they could have lowered the price at most

  • I was doing my best to stop people from accidentally reading it before it had been tagged. Don't tell me to "chill" just because I was attempting to fix that.

  • Even if you use spoiler tags, please refrain from discussing spoilers. The original poster of this thread will still see spoilers, and the entirety of this thread is supposed to be spoiler free anyways. Thanks for your cooperation.
