I actually rather liked it. And I think you'll like it too, but not as much as prior seasons. It's all just preference, and nothing actually changes, apart from some new characters, new conflicts, new villains, new communities, new action scenes, oh wait - yeh s8 has a lot of pew pew moments. The only season that is actually different is S1 because of cinematography, camera colour etc.

Yeah, I wasn't a huge fan of how it ended, or the second half of the season in general. The first half was fantastic, but then, once the second half started, it just went downhill. Clear is easily one of the best episodes of the show, but other than that and the episode of Merle dying, it was meh. And the finale was, for lack of a better term, disappointing.
Loved it. I like Governor a lot as a villain, I loved all the stuff with Rick.. but I must say that if I wouldn't be able to immediately start watching Season 4 I would have been a little disappointed with the ending of S3.
If you want to, you can ask me about anything that happened so far and I'll share my opinion
Nice bro. I have been on Season 6 for the last few months I have enough time on weekends to jump back in and watch but I prefer reading The Walking Dead Comics
Now listen to me. If Telltale didn't make Minecraft, it's possible that NONE of games below would not have been made.
(Spoiler)
SO THANK HIM FOR DELAYED BANKRUPTCY!

A lot of it is 'filler' that doesn't go anywhere tbh. Enjoyable in terms of action to be sure, but yeah just not enough story being told for the most part.

The thing with TWD is, at least for me, that my second watch of a season has always been much more enjoyable than the initial watch. Maybe it's because binging it fits the structure of the show much more or something. I'm not sure yet.
But watching S8 for the first time was awful.
The way I often describe S8 is, that a lot of things did happen, but nothing really happened.
There are a lot of gunfights in it, but they feel completely empty and hollow to me.
I felt something when Shane opened Hershels barn in S2 and all the walkers came out and they started to shoot them, because there was a sense of consequence to it. That decision was completely character-driven. That just doesn't exist in S8.
Or when Rick killed those two guys in the bar with Hershel and Glenn, which are actually his first human kills in the apocalypse. He never wanted to kill the living but he ultimately did because there was no other way. That short "gunfight" changed him. That's why it worked. It actually meant something.
Any word if the team has started working on it yet? I know in the AMA they said they haven't because of legal reasons but looked to start in the coming weeks. Was wondering if anything on that front has changed.

I'm guessing your in the usa because the walking dead is on Amazon in the UK and not Netflix UK
Oi mate you should watch the trailers before you start the season, it multiplies your hype levels ten-fold. Do it now anyway
I already did before starting the season
Yup.
Today, it’s been a month since Telltale’s massive layoffs...this wound will not heal
One month that's gone quick so that means we are 3 weeks from the original episode 3 release date shame it won't be on time now
So why is season 8 considered bad? I haven't reached that point yet, I'm just interested.

Yeah maybe I'll like it too, I mean, I liked The Amazing Spiderman 2 and Venom so... you know
Well, Season 3 ended kinda.. strangely.
You finished Season 3?!! Already? Damn son all hail The Binge Watcher! I like Season 3 a lot. What are your thoughts/opinions?

S2 starts to pick up Steam at the midpoint...has one of my favorite episodes "Nebraska"
Damn, blazing throught it!

This section right now.
If the only thing that delayed Telltale's death is a minecraft game, i think that's very telling about Telltale's recent quality products.
It is a valid option.
I agree that the comics are way better. I could just never get into the show.
So its been two weeks of radio silence...are things moving at least?
It's something
"expects"
shit
Hmmm
I see
Very suspicious

AwW mAn, My FeElInGs ArE hUrT
I'm perfectly fine with waiting longer, I just hope 5-12 months from now we're still saying the same thing.
The comics are just rather comical.
Imagine if we had a MS Paint shitty fanart twd rebellion.

I expected Venom to be crap but ended up enjoying it thoroughly! Hoping for an R rated cut
Dude's called in every favour and sick day he has lol :P
Here's a question for ya:
Do you think Merle should've been killed off this early?

S8? Never.
From half of what I've seen, that seems accurate.
Yes, and his death was really well done.
Hmmm... I felt he could've lasted longer tbh...

The comics are way better.
