"Hey guys, we're just going to get fired once we finish the game... so let's not finish the game. They've invested too much money into this to stop now. I can think of a dozen different features that could keep us busy for years."
Played the beta for about 20 minutes this weekend. I made an elf, killed the dream dragon, then got bored in the starting area. Standing around with 100+ other people, slaughtering fireflies the instant they spawn... /yawn. not quite the atmosphere I think they were going for.
As an American, I've had my debit card frozen every time I purchase something from them. They also charge a hidden "International Transaction Fee", so expect the order to cost ~$2 more than what it says it costs.
Chopped the leg off without even bothering looking for a way to free him otherwise. Haha, sucker.
Fed: Clem, Mark, Larry (figured I needed some brownie points with him), and myself. Duck can eat his boogers.
Went straight to the dairy farm.
I wanted to shoot Jolene but I couldn't figure out how, I didn't get a prompt? Oh well.
Successfully warned Clem to not eat Mark. I saw this cannibalism twist coming a mile away.
Tried to save Larry but Kenny squashed that problem. I've been siding against Kenny in both episodes, though I did save his family.
Spared both brothers. It's hard to call Kenny a murderer, then turn around and start murdering people myself.
Sided with Clem against looting the car. Look out for Clem and she'll look out for you. I have no doubt I made the right call there.
In a nutshell, The Walking Dead is easily Telltale's best work. I was skeptical that I could enjoy a zombie game in 2012, but I've been proven wrong. The game is extremely good.
@PeezMachine: I don't think there's anything wrong with using an inside joke. It's a community guild, so something that is uniquely ours could be appropriate.
Abraham Lincoln jokes aren't uniquely ours. With Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter in wide theatrical release, it's just not funny anymore.
Any Giant Bomb specific meme could be fine. Off the top of my head:
Batman Batman Batman
Duders
I'm a Wizard
Why Are They So Bad At Chrono Trigger, I Beat This Game When I Was An Infant
Oh Great, Another Quick Look I Can't Watch Because Patrick Is In It
@JCTango: Yeah, I turned it off and mouse movement seems smoother. After patching and updating drivers, the game runs nicely on my PC. I'm glad I bought it on PC too because this game clearly benefits from mouse & keyboard precision.
If you really have no choice but to use the phosphorus, I'm glad I kept the illusion of choice alive by going right for it. I roleplayed that entire game as a complete psychopath and loved it.
