Episode 4 General Opinion thread
... fuckin' awesome! I can't believe how some users were mad about length of the episode. Yeah, okay, I do get it: "Another 1-2 months to see Bigby kill the Crooked Man?! KKKKHHHHHAAAANNN!". The point is, that ending was epic and it was perfectly used to build suspense for the last TWAU. I personally lit a cigarette and was kind of surprise when so little did. I guess threats were more of the norm. Anyway, TellTale? Ya'll did the damn thing with this series. Keep up with that badass storytelling.
MOD EDIT VAINAMOINEN May 28th:
There were a dozen identical opinion threads floating around after ep4 released, so I merged them... which will undoubtedly help Telltale officials to scan and evaluate your opinions as well. Carry on with the discussion in this thread.

It was way too short (shorter than any episode so far... not much more than an hour long),
had next to no action (they even spoiled who we were going to fight in the Twitter)
and a very anti-climatic ending (we just get to see someone everyone who had seen the leaked models already had seen, and got to confirm who we already knew were working under him... and that's it).
Felt like a filler episode. It's just there to set up for the final episode, and doesn't even do a good job at it. There isn't even much replay value... no important decisions. Come on, just once again a "where to go first" choice? With 2 options... And it doesn't seem to do much difference (I still have to replay to pick the other choice). Maybe other small choices will have some consequence in the final episode but for now it really doesn't feel like it.
After episode 3, I think we were all expecting more from Telltale, and to me it failed to deliver. Maybe the only good thing about ep.4 was that we didn't had to wait much for it. And how disappointing they knew we would be was probably the reason they didn't hold it from us. What a shame. :-(
Why can't you telltale just listen to us? I don't want thousands of games that are only fucking 10 minutes long.
Even a one game is good to me, if I can really enjoy it. Telltale doesn't focus so much anymore, the walking dead season 2 is so rushed and I don't care about it so much anymore. Now it seems like the same happened to the wolf among us and it really sucks :(
Also we don't know if he plays a role in episode 5.
In my opinion the Jersey devil was the coolest thing in this episode.
what was specifically wrong with it?
Introducing a character doesn't mean the episode sucks, I think telltale meant it to be just "a cool thing" in this episode.

Remember when EP1, came out. The Wolf threw the axeman through a window. He landed on a car breaking it on impact. You were likely thinking bad ass! though EP4. Many people raised it as delivering sooner then expected.
Yet its barely, and I mean BARELY, one hour of Game Play. So we wait 2 and half months. They run out of ideas, they re-hash ideas already been told. I understand you want to write Game Of Thrones, script. Part of what made your company so unique that the games didn't suck.
You took the time to do hubs, with puzzle. Char progression, now it seems like your rushing content for sake of getting it out faster, whats the matter need another PRE ORDER six months in advance to start to the next projecct.
It sucks, you have a great machine. You are good at telling dramas. Hell all the personality's, names and people are spelled out for you. Yea you still manage to make a one hour show seem boring and repeated.
Please fix this quality of content, even if you have fire someone. This EP4 sucked.
Thank you.
Its such a shame.
It seems that many people didn't like the episode because there wasn't much of Action scenes and it was fucking short.
Yeah the lenght of the episode was very disappointing, but seriously, do you play this game because of Action scenes??
The story is the main thing and it's still good.
In my opinion, episode 4 was a pretty good set up for (I hope) the epic final.
It's true they rushed the episode, but it wasn't that bad after all.
I know I'm gonna get a full load of dislikes, but I don't give a cheese, hit dat thumbs down button if you want.
I said what was n my heart and I'm happy now.
You can have my like too.
This episode is a huge disappointment, nothing interesting happened, and it's VERY short.
1 hour and 10 minutes. What the hell telltale? i can somehow stand short time if episode is good and interesting, but it was fucking boring.
Get your shit together and stop rushing TWAU and TWD episodes. Tales-from-the-no-one-cares-about-land can wait.
