The game is well put together, the story seems really good, the game is visually appealing, but the gunplay ruins all of it.
This is for both season one, and season two. I personally felt that the story telling was pure perfection, full of real emotion, created real connections between me and the characters, and just felt so sincere. I think Telltale Games has done an amazing job with this game and it's clear that they took their time writing the story, poured their hearts out into it completely. There isn't much in terms of actual gameplay, mostly just an animated story with a bit of interaction, but, surprisingly, I personally don't mind at all. I honestly can't even begin to explain how gripping it was, how well they had written the cliff-hangers into the end of each chapter, which is something I've noticed the writers of the show sometimes have a tough time with. If you like story-heavy games like this, linear, but not so linear in it's own way, then I swear to christ you will want to play through both seasons. I almost don't want to replay these seasons because I want to remember these two games as one solid story, every choice that I had made, everything that happened, every character that was lost, dying or leaving. I want to remember this story by the emotions that it had filled me with during my playthrough, with nothing changing, no matter how much I may want some things to change, because..I just don't want to make it seem like my choices meant nothing, like none of it made a difference in the story, a real conclusive difference. It was one of the best things I have ever experienced in my twenty-two years in this world, and it's a story I'll never forget, and it may sound silly, but these are memories I'll always cherish. Such a tragic, yet beautiful end to Clementine's journy. I have that feeling that you get when you can't believe it's over, like people should still be here, like things should still be the way they were. Never have I been so moved by a story, any story, be it a story told in the form of a video game, a show, movie, or even a song. This is truly amazing...
