Episode 2 thoughts (likely spoilers)

edited February 2014 in The Wolf Among Us

I wasn't planning on playing these games until they were all out, but I got stuck inside thus weekend and just said screw it. My first thought after completing the game was ... "Ummm is that it?" Not so much the length of it (which was short) but almost nothing happened besides snow being alive. This is what took 4 months? What happened to that prince dude?

And is it just me or did the original trailer for episode 2 seem WAY better than what telltale actually put out after the apparent rewrite? It's like they sat around for two months and said " soooo how do we make this suck?"

  • Sad to say, but in a way I'm hopeful that the majority of the delay was series-wide alterations rather than just episode 2, and episode 2 has merely suffered the most from the changes. That would make it a transitional episode.

  • Maybe..but i think i would have preferred the game in the original trailer instead of what we actually got. Just seemed boring and anti-clamatic to me. Unlike the first, which was well paced and engrossing.

    Some of my frustration may be due to the fact i read the comic regularly for years. Up until the mid 60's. So i know what eventually happens with crane and snow and all of that. I knew Snow White wasn't really dead, she's still alive in the comic universe (or at least up until i stopped reading) So she had to come back in some way or another.

    What got me excited about the first episode is that it seemed like a fresh storyline independent of the comic narrative. With episode two, they are now boxing themselves into corners with some characters that have determined futures. Cant say anything other that i was extremely disappointed the direction the game took in episode two.
