Beautiful artwork, fun setting..but...
From a technical standpoint this game is a work of art like a comicbook brought to life and infused with seudo 3D aninmation. Simply beautiful. But its full of bugs and will crash randomly even on hardware above the recomendations. When it does this if you are in a timed conversation where you need to make a choice if will pick the worst possible answer out of 3-4 horrible choices...and then autosave when you get dumped back at your desktop. From a writer's viwepoint.... It's like herding cats with the mentality of angsty 14 year olds. It will have you cussing at the screen and pulling your hair out.. The formula for gameplay is this: 1. Long interlude where you decide you need to find ' item X ' or move to location X. 2. You spend a long time getting item X or going to location X 3. Once you have item x or are at location X one member of your group will decide to debate philosophy AT THE WORST POSSIBLE TIME...Then you will be attacked by walkers. 4. You will be forced to make the worst posible decision for the situation and then you are back to step 1. ( This repeats throughtout the entire game. ) Throw in action scenes where you either have the everlating shotgun/ pistol and then get hit with someone prompting you that everyone is almost out of ammo while forcing you to use an inanimate object to fight walkers because you absolutely HAVE to remane quiet only to have a party member open up like Dirty Harry on something that means nothing leaving you to wonder why the action scene was even necesssary. Everyone will grumble even after you risked your life for them. Everyone is a two demensional character save Lee and Clem. If I ever bother to play this again I'm choosing to be a royal b*astard to everyone but Clem... I bet the end results will still be the same.
