thank you for raving dead
hi !
just wanted to drop by and say that this very episode was imo the best yet.
i laughed, I smiled and grinned and the puzzles itself were brilliantly paced and arranged. so many moments of utter genius, agent superball was hillarious (
...it's pure comedy in interactive cartoon motion....

no cameras please, i need a moment
), the inclusion of old characters and hints to other episodes a highlight. an episode like this can only come and be written after you already had a bunch of classic ones, i was reminded of Futurama and the universe they created for themselves, I think you reached that quality with this one. and the last scene after the credits - had me jumping out of my seat....it's pure comedy in interactive cartoon motion....

The only areas that could use some improvements are in the graphics/animation department; the lack of lip-synching makes dialogs less engaging than they could be, and many of the models and locations could be a bit more detailed and dynamic. For example, there is a queue in front of the Zombie Factory suggesting the place will be crowded, but once you get inside there are only two raving zombies inside! I think there is a joke about fire regulations that tries to explain it, but nevertheless it detracts somewhat from the atmosphere since the place feels mostly empty.
But these are minor things, and in general my experience is pretty positive. Kudos to the Telltale team!
It was great to
Together with 202, this is easily the best episode released so far.
Can't wait for 204, move on!:D
PS: I want a tool to translate normal Text to Zombie language. Like the Kenny Translator.
I think he's referring to opening with a sort of James Bond-esque life or death stinger situation.
THAT should be the name of the next episode.
And I agree. Night of the Raving Dead was a brilliant episode. For really strange reasons that I can't explain, though...even though it took me longer than any episode before it to finish, and its plotline was among the best...it felt shorter...*shrug* Pay no attention to the sleepy Kedri.
Yeah, made me laugh a great deal more than usual. And I'm glad to see that the remarkably hideously vile jokes are more sporadic and subtle. Subtlety is good; the hallmark of brilliance.
However, a few unpolished moments caught my eye, I'm afraid...Max's statements to Abe statue had some rather distorted vertices around his mouth...which was really quite disturbing. Also, two spelling errors. An "action" where there should have been "auction", and a "!." where there should have been a "!"
But still! Best episode yet! I think I'll replay it.
Oh good, I'm not the only one then. At least the writing was still brilliant.
It's got the atmosphere, the design, the characters! Even Max has turned more deadpan rather than just snotty punchlinening. Bravo! *claps like a seal* Bravo!
I noticed the latter, not the former. I shook my head in disgust.
anyway, in another thread nick told me i would like 203...damn and he was right. okay, you always have a good start with zombies, but the rest is great as well. i haven't finished playing it yet and already think it's one of the best episodes.
btw, on of my cousins is called jürgen..
See it already melted my brain.
It was great throughout. Keep it up !
I can see a pattern here...
Santa
Easter Island
Vampires n stuff
hmm mysteries... what s next ? Bermuda triangle ? Pyramids as alien landing platforms ?
The Bermuda Triangle actually was the portal to the Easter Island in 202.
Ah damn, that's true, the triangles, forgot the big one was of the bermuda's !
Egypt then maybe, hmm hmm
Or maybe some USA folklore like big foot (unlikely since it was done in HTR)
We'll see... (and i hardly can wait)
I used to be a raver so a lot of the in-jokes in this episode were absolutely spot on. The music wasn't just good, it was accurate. The pacifier and candy bracelet had me howling. The joke about the water was an "I can't believe they went there" moment. Standing in the booth gave me this tantalizingly sly smirk of doing something I've always dreamed of doing. Seeing our heroes dance was sublime.
Someone at Telltale knows his or her stuff. Very impressive.
Even without those apt references to rave culture this episode really spoke to me, and my wife and I laughed all the while. The animations were expressive and nonverbally communicative. The game was not too hard and not too short. You folks are master adventure game designers and, dare I say, despite my love of Reality 2.0, this is the very best episode yet.

now picture me dancing on your FACE!
Loved the ending... wonder how the president will rule now, lol.
Even stranger, notice that there are
Playing it was a bit like playing Abe Lincoln Must Die or Reality 2.0, in that TellTale seem to be getting bolder and more ambitious in what they are attempting. Which really put a smile on my face.
And I'm pretty sure that both Heaven and Hell will play a major role in episode 5, since the duo has already been to the "future christmas" which looked like hell in 201.
Even if some nerdy guy won't find it funny, I bet it's gonna be great.
For some reason, I picture THEM as giant eyeballs (the all seeing eye). ha ha Am I right? Am I cold or warm?
Seriously, I love the all the work TTG done, I'd love to get a job working there.
PS: Despite the fact I just joined, i've been a long time visitor of these forums.
I only see great things for the rest of season 2. Keep up the great work guys.
but the heaven and hell theory sounds great too
"Ganz großes Kino" as we say in Germany.
Keep on rockin', guys!
Cheers,
