    On PS4 you can check percents of what trophies people have... and certain Episode 2-5 trophies have 0.01% completion of everyone who has it... It's like the first, then the fourth and fifth, so I think it's a glitch. Wouldn't the fourth and fifth chapter people also have the third completed? Eh, I thought it was interesting

  • No it's not a glitch, the .01% of people who have it are testers who gained them while testing the episode, at least that's what happened for TWD and TWAU, so I'm sure it's the same situation for this game.

  • When the hatch closes on Rhys and Sasha, Fiona and Vaughn swap positions.

    Fiona goes from left of the hatch to the right, and Vaughn does the opposite.

  • The pause menu background changes colour depending on which character you're playing as.

  • When Rhys and Vaughn ran over that skag, Vaughn said that they were murderers and thought it would take more than 20 seconds for that to happen. Little did they know that they already committed murder the moment they landed on Pandora when they landed on that bandit.

    Shade didn't kill the denizens of Oasis. He just strung up their dried corpses. Same here (I assume).

    So Shade killed his grandpa and later said he was still alive. ...makes sense. In that crazy Pandoran kind of way.

  • Ah, thanks. I didn't play Borderlands before, so I didn't know Shade was in them already.

  • This accident was pretty similiar to Wyatt's story in TWD Season 1 DLC.

  • On the title menu (The one circling around Rhys and Fiona) Rhys's appearance changes after Ep.1 (Rhys has blood on him from when he used Zer0's sword to kill the monster). We can only suspect that their appearance will change on the title menu after each episode.

    I made a thread about this and only a Telltale staff member said anything... They said "Hmmmmm."

  • Speaking of Rhys's appearance after gutting that Giant Skag, he is covered in blood right, but when Loader Bot shows up again and Rhys falls down into the Atlas lab Rhys's bloody suit is now cleaner. I guess the fall cleaned him up lol. Can't really upset over this as a bloody suit would just look to distracting for the ending scene.

  • It's not really a secret thing to notice, but I loved that every time Rhys punched or attacked someone (at least in my playthroughs), he uses his non-robotic arm. I laughed out loud when he hurts his hand punching the bandit or when he fails to kill the one on the catwalk with his normal arm, while presumably his awesome robot arm would have no problem punching people or breaking a neck. I like to think this was intentional (and that maybe at some point some character will comment on why he doesn't use his metal arm to hit people).

  • Someone from Telltale has confirmed that he's left handed.

  • Vasquez has a bionic(?) pinky finger on his left hand.

  • In Felix's box of goodies that Fiona searches through when Sasha is in trouble there are some rather interesting items in there. Two of the most note-worthy items are: A Flux Capacitor (a Back to The Future Easter egg I'm sure) and a Prototype Doomsday Device (always handy to have one of those).

  • Well, Vaughn is played by the same actor who played Eddie in Wyatt's Story.

    Eddie is voiced by Brandon Bales

  • shade's grandpa is proff penumbra who sits like a corpse at the entry of world of curiosities..... just listen to whatever shade says after meeting him" my grandpapy build this place ... he loved this place and still does cause he is still alive "..... really? penumbra is alive .... creepy isnt it?

  • I know right?

    Goddamn it, you'd think a space western with indeterminate alien races, magical sirens, and megalomaniac A.I.'s hell-bent on possessing you via your extreme body modifications would be a little more focused on anatomical accuracy...

    FOR SHAME TELLTALE!

    (I'm just playing - it bugged me too)

    FYI - a hole in your hand means the nerves for your fingers are all fucked. Dunno why this bothers me, considering how cartoonish this series is. Probably Post-Clem-Shooting-Disorder. (PCSD)

  • I'm not sure if this counts or not but....

    When playing as Fiona for the first time, if you pick up the dying man's money she says "Girls gotta eat." This quote is also an achievement name in Borderlands 2:

    Also, these are the unused names for episodes 2, 4 and 5.

    Episode 2: The Quickening

    Episode 4: Escape From Hyperion

    Episode 5: Journey To The Center Of The Vault

  • Episode 5: Journey To The Center Of The Vault

    Why wasn't this used...? Way better than Episode 5's name now (The Vault Of The Traveler)

  • Didn't know if its already been mentioned but..

    In the bar on the drink pumps one of them has the 'bananas' bottle from TWDG placed on top.

  • That's actually the first detail on the first page. Also, it's not a bottle of bananas, it's Banang, which is from Sam & Max, and has been in every Telltale game as an Easter egg since.

    Also that's interesting, love the fact they've kept it in from the beginning.
