TWD, mostly because I can't get TWAU to work, which really paints my perception, because I have not had a TTG game flat out not work, and because I find it easier to relate to TWD characters compared to TWAU.

What platform do you have it on again? Can't you just delete it and re-download it?

I have tried that, but it just won't work, and 360 for the record.

Wolf Among Us.
Firstly, I find the premise and gameplay style to be more imaginative. The Fables universe is overall intriguing, and detective/noir gameplay is an interesting fit for the new Telltale choice gameplay.
Secondly, having the Season Premiere of Walking Dead: Season 2 - a game focused on character relationships and moral choices - focus entirely on isolation and a lack of moral choices (except for the dog) does no favors in connecting Clementine to the cast, even if Episodes 2 and 3 played out on a much stronger and higher note.

I do agree episode 6 was not the best reintroduction, it was my least favorite episode so far.

There actually were a decent number of moral choices in that episode, there were just issues in terms of how they were handled and portrayed. The choice with Christa was pretty straightforward in asking the player to choose survival or humanity, but was awfully unbalanced. Same with feeding the dog. You had the option to blackmail Alvin and Sarah to get your supplies, but the former is missable and the latter wasn't followed through on because it got sidetracked by the whole friendship thing. Accepting Nick's apology is technically a moral choice (as forgiveness is a moral principle) and I thought it was handled well enough. You had the option of holding your knowledge of her uncertainty about her baby's paternity over Rebecca's head, in order to defend yourself against her aggression towards you. That was a good moral choice. Giving water to the dying man was supposed to be about mercy, but for me it ended up being more like "Maybe if I give him this water, I can get some information about Christa out of him." Finally, the Pete and Nick choice could be seen as moral if you chose to go with Nick because Pete was bitten and done for or if you chose to go with Pete because you wanted to help him.

I love both games but i like TWD more, i prefer the more horror orientated theme over fairy tale fantacy, i also feel more attached to the characters in TWD and get more upset and angry when good characters like Walter die unlike TWAU where my reaction to Snow's head was just "oh".

TWDS2. I just prefer it in general, although they're both great. Also, for some reason, I don't really get very hyped for TWAU episodes like I do for TWD.

TWAU episode 1 beats TWD S2 episode 1 but I think TWD episode 2 and 3 are better than TWAU episode 2 and 3

It's odd that I made this thread but I am torn and don't know what to pick even though I've forced everyone else to choose.

Easily The Wolf Among Us.
I don't have a lot of faith of where WD S2 is heading with its last two episodes. Choice is mattering less and less, and I doubt all the important decisions are all going to accumulate into influencing something like Clem's state of mind in E5 (though it would heavily redeem the season in my eyes). I've also found myself preferring Clem's S1 character over her season two counterpart.
When TWD ended, I read up on Fables and loved it. There was a problem though, and it was that Bigby was announced to be the main character. I wasn't a big fan of his gruff and asshole-ish personality in the comics, but the game allowed me to play a relatively 'good' Bigby and I enjoyed it. Choice matters more in TWAU rather than TWD, and that's a big deciding factor on my preference. The writing is also great, and the art style is awesome.

TWAU wins. I still really like TWD season 2, but it just seems weaker to me. What happened to the illusion of choice in Season 2? It's more of an action movie now. Most of the characters lack development and I'm not as emotionally invested in most of them like I was with S1 characters (Christa, please come back).
"X will remember that" informations shouldn't even be in TWD now. Because nobody remembers shit. Carlos, Rebecca and Nick treat you really well since episode 2, even if you were a total asshole towards them every time you could. We barely get any characters mentioning your previous dialogue options in season 2. Actually, I can't remember sngle time someone did that, unlike in TWAU. We still have the illusion of the choice in TWAU. I also think it's characters are more interesting and it;s just overall better written.
