Oh my God, I love this so much. It's like True Detective(Season One) meets Bioshock meets L.A. Noire, and I gotta say, I love it. The game ran pretty good for me, and I absolutely love the art-style. Honestly, I think I prefer it over any of Telltale's series', even life is Strange(which, while I love the style, has shit animations. Everything was top-notch, although it ran a little slow at times, and it got me killed in two QTEs when the frame rate hiccuped, but it wasn't a big deal. One thing that this has going for it is that I love the characters. I mean, I liked The wolf among Us, but I could never really like any of the characters that much, which is why even though it has some absolutely brilliant writing, I still hold it below GoT and TFTB. The main character is likeable, and how they handle the choices is interesting. I also really like Milton, he reminds me a bit of John Coffee in The Green Mile... except, you know, John Coffee was some sort of magic healer and Milton is a criminal. Still. The voice acting is pretty good, too. I swear I've heard Ness' VA in something before, but I can't put my finger on it. didn't recognize his name when the credits rolled. The QTEs were good, and I honestly enjoyed the shooting parts. And while it didn't look like there was a way to fail the investigation and I could have gotten through via order of elimination, it was still an interesting part that I'd like to see more of. Really looking forward to the next episode, I can't wait to see where all this is going. My Choices: -Tried to help the boy escape. Regretted it in the moment, but i guess in the long run it was the right thing. -Showed the would be robber kindness. -Didn't put extra sauce on Dickon's burger. -Showed restraint(I assume you can't kill Capone, but what happens otherwise? Gun jams?) -Told Capone to donate his fortune to charity. -Made the deal with Capone(and by that I mean I didn't punch him in the face and mostly believed him and went along with it without any resistance). -Stayed Sober. -Tried to tell the truth when I could to Alice and Delphine. -Was rude to Delphine/Chose the case over Delphine. -Chose the bear over the doll. -Chose blond hair over brown hair. -Chose the left symbol over the right... How would you rank it compared to other Telltale Games?

I actually don't know how far between the episodes will be. I'm hoping they'll come out maybe within two months of each other like TTG.

How would you rank it compared to other Telltale Games? My list of all Interactive Narratives I've played from the best to the worst(and by no means do I think any of them are bad): Kentucky Route Zero Game of Thrones Tales from the Borderlands Gone Home The Walking Dead(S1 and S2) Blues and Bullets The Wolf Among Us Life is Strange And that's after only one episode. I'm hoping it'll get even better. I'd say it's definitely worth playing, and it does have a lot of potential, potential that I think it'll live up to. Unlike some other series' that had potential... *cough*LifeIsStrange*cough*

Thinking about it, it may not be... I'm not sure, it flip flops, but in general, yeah, that's more or less accurate. Suffice to say, Blues and Bullets is good, but there's only one episode, so I'm not putting it above most stuff yet.

Good point, would have thought TWDS1 would be higher, but when combined with season 2, I get it.

Yeah, the one constant is the Life is Strange is still the worst I've played, even though I still like it, and Kentucky Route Zero is definitely the best.... Still waiting for Act IV. It came out in 2012 and Act III was released late 2014, and there's still no news as to when Act IV will be released. But still, even with just 3 of the 5 acts, it shines so far above anything else.

I got Ep1, never played it, but I'll give it a try.
Last time I've heard, the devs said that Ep2 will be released around December 2015... :/

ep 2 is confirmed for march 8th. just seven months of waiting between episodes. Just like it was confirmed for December 2015 and later for the second half of January 2016. Yeah, I'll believe the devs when the episode actually comes out.

I'm still looking forward to the second episode, but yeah, the wait is ridiculous.
Still not as bad as Kentucky Route Zero, though. Act I premiered in December 2012 and there's still not a solid release date on Act IV.
