It left me unsatisfied and sort of put a bad spin on an already lacking episode. The main disappointment story wise was how abruptly it ended whereas most episodes in all Telltale games end in a moral-testing choice, this one just seemed to end mid-conversation. This episode just felt a bit bland compared to the others, which I actually really enjoyed. There wasn’t much achieved in the episode as a whole compared to the others, it just felt like a bit of a filler compared to the obviously story driven predecessors. And unfortunately, everyone seems to hold grudges even though it’s the end of the world and it’s been three bloody years.Īnother issue I had with the story is that, unlike other episodes, there wasn’t much of a climax or an end goal. So despite me not particularly being invested in the episode and the characters at first, it still felt like each situation had weight to it one example being with flashback sequences, as I knew my choices back then would affect the characters in the present. It’s tough even when I apply the logic that “it’s only a game, why are you spending so long deciding?”, so it’s good to know the story telling element of Telltale hasn’t suffered too much from the extended waiting time between episodes.
The walking dead a new frontier episode 3 series#
It took me a while to get properly into it but as said before in this series there were the classic Telltale moments of where I had no idea what option to pick. You take on the familiar roles of Javier and then Clementine when you take a trip back to the past, but in both cases you’re involved with the community that you don’t know whether to join or fight. But things aren’t what they seem as you have to choose between old family or new friends, and decide where your loyalties lay. This is the first time, that I’ve thought anyway, that an episode of the Walking Dead game or any Telltale game has been marginally worse than the others before it.Įpisode 3 of this series puts you in negotiations with a mysterious group that’s been causing you trouble since your journey began. This made me lose my excitement, and also lose my investment in the characters I had only just re-gained my motivation for these characters before the episode ended. I was looking forward to this, well, for about two months after the first two episodes came out unfortunately, I didn’t have to wait two months, I had to wait almost four (as does everyone buying these episodes episodically).
