Loved Season 1, still haven't played Season 2. Wonder if they'll offer it as a freebie before S3.

Season 3 is a glitchfest. At this point it's frankly unacceptable. I hear their Guardians Of The Galaxy game is even worse which is why I've held off on that so far.

Yeah, after being unable to wait to play the next Telltale game I didn't care about Michonne or Season 3. Having other titles like Life is Strange around also got me bored of the Telltale "formula"

Also like the guy who tells his waiter that his food was inedible and they gave him such a small portion, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that the episodes are almost comically short -- probably half the length of previous episodes of the series and more in line with Minecraft Story Mode than previous TWD games. I completed every one in a single 60-90 minute sitting and never (or hardly ever) did that in S 1 & 2.


I didn't come across massive visual glitches in the later episodes like I did in the first (two-parter). I did have a comical and totally unforgivable one in Episode 5 though -- at one point on a rooftop, Javier is talking to Clem and then in the background, you clearly see another character walk by -- -- which is pretty damn significant since, in my game, that character was brutally murdered at the end of episode 4! How does something like that even happen? It totally ruins the experience.

Also, on a Meta-level, I think they were misguided with the whole story of Season 3 : If they wanted to shift the focus to a new group of characters, okay. But then don't throw Clem in there for us to react to. There's no way that a player who has been through the first two seasons is going to treat Clem the way he would treat any random NPC character they happen to come across during their gameplay. In fact, if faced with a choice between Clem and "your family", most of us would lean towards Clem rather than a couple of sniveling brats we just met. The whole set-up is fundamentally flawed in that regard. At the end, Clem asks you questions about herself as she's filled with self-doubt. Are you really supposed to respond to those questions with answers that are basically variations of "Yeah, you suck" and "Just give up"?

There were so many problems with S3 that I'm kind of worried about S4; though at least shifting the protagonist back to Clem is a good (and obviously necessary) place to start.
