The walking dead (Serie and Game)
So i'm on an horror slash zombies/infected spree...
I've been wanting to do a Silent Hill marathon, but having my friends over and them telling me: 'Steam specials!!! Go watch what's on there! Buy 'The walking dead!' it's so good, you will love it!'.
You know.... peer pressure... I've put my SH games away for a bit and got 'The walking dead' game.
I just finished the 1st 'episode' if you can call those episodes? I do like the game, even if it's a lil rough at times. I got mad at the time where you have to help a guy who's leg is stuck inside a bear trap, I was running out of time and options to save him and anything I was trying wasn't working... And I didn't want to chop his leg off. It's totally intended to make you feel bad, like most people would try all options before chopping it off yes!? I've tried the rock, the axe, open the actual trap... I was feeling so bad for the guy that I've paused the game and looked on the net if there was any other way to save the guy other than removing one of his leg with my axe... Apparently, you do what you gotta do...
But yes, it's cool that you have to make choices like that one under pressure with a timer. I'm pretty sure during a real zombie invasion, you wouldn't have time to chill and think of all your option and you know that you cannot save everyone (assuming the zombies are fast and 'kinda clever'). So the game really focuses on stressing you to make choices and find your way out of messy situation in a clever way. I can totally hear LP saying: ' AGhhh quick time events!' yeah, some people like those some don't, personally I don't mind them.
I'll be finishing this game before my SH marathon...
Oh, and I know people have been telling me to watch the serie for a while, so I've started to do that. I know they are at the 3rd season now, so I have a lots to watch!
