HUBS! and not just a small hub, a hub done perfectly. You aren't forced to participate in interacting with people, but you can and you can gain some serious important background info from characters and I haven't seen such a well done hub in FOREVER! I got a good 80 minutes out of the episode thanks to exploring every single nook and cranny and it made the episode seem satisfyingly longer. I'm not normally so die hard for hubs, but thanks to the inclusion of one it made the episode feel perfectly paced and more enjoyable. Also determinant conversation with Pete, interactions with Randall, and a super well done somber moment with a record player. Major props to Telltale.

    Damn straight. This was truly a fine example of how it's done. Hardly any of that look at something making no comments, no secret timer that then forced the story on, and you can go back and forth between major areas without advancing the plot unless you want to. I would love to see more of this. And dare I say make it even better.

    Yeah, that was my favorite part of the episode, I loved that you can walk around the house and actually talk to people, it gave a lot of insight and development to the characters, which is definitely something Season 2 lacked. And you could actually take your time with it, it's not look for a couple of minutes and then Sam/Paige just comes talk to you, you could just do whatever you want and talk to them when you felt like it, it was great.

    I love that you can literally explore every room in the house. It's probably one of the most expansive hub segments they've done in that regard. It's not just one relatively small and/or linear area, but an entire house.

    Hub segments is what Season 2 lacked the most. Hope there will be more in Season 3.

    I loved the hub! It felt great, being able to explore an entire house. It gave you an insight into all of the characters, without even talking to them. Just looking in their rooms and whatnot.

    Makes me wish Ironrath was explorable in similar way in Season 1 of TTGoT.

    Yeah, it was really nice to see such a big explorable area. I just wish there were more things to click at. :P
