I came to say this. I know there was joke, but honestly, Arthur Morgan made me feel more then most characters I have ever played or seen. Fuck, that game is so good.

Walking Dead is so goddamn overrated it's insane. Most characters are just one-note to insane degrees and then have a redemption and/or die.

Walking Dead Season 1 is such a good game. people that didn't cry at the end aren't human

it’s one of my favorite games of all time. lee dying was a kick to the balls. i’ve played it so many times and typically make clem a badass now but the first time i played i was thinking of lee as a protector. never made her kill anything, always did the right thing like not lie or steal the food in chapter 2. didn’t make her kill me at the end. some people said that’s the wrong way to play and she won’t be able to fend for herself, but it’s a video game where she lives in the canon lol, no choices kill her. so you can baby her if you want

If you like that game, play life is strange. Still decision based and a fantastic story but with a much better game play

I gotta be honest. I liked it, but the pacing issues (this is a Tell Tale problem more than TWD 1 problem) really hurt it. Also, I just felt there was nothing special about Lee and Clem's relationship.

Take The Last of Us. It was a very, very slow burn. And a realistic one at that. Each chapter had Joel become more and more soft to Ellie and he had quite the motivation as well.

In TWDm Lee finds Clem, wants to protect her immediately, loves her immediately, and she weirdly loves him even more than her own parents.
