I don't mind that the destination was the same, it's just the journey is too near identical for my liking. Having someone shout at me instead of being polite to me isn't my idea of a changed story. I probably wouldn't have been as disappointed if it didn't have the whole 'This story is affected by your choices', since I really liked the story.
Also, the guy at the end annoyed me. Made up reasons for me doing what I did that weren't correct :/
I know I'll get a lot of hate for this, but the Walking Dead game. As much as I enjoyed the story and characters, saying the story is affected by your choices, then having those choices have no real impact on the story kind of sucked :/
The story was very much affected by your choices. The ending wasn't. But it's Walking Dead. What did you expect? Shit was always going to go poorly.
The choices they gave you were mostly, 'do you want this person to live or die?' If you picked 'die' they died, and if you picked 'live'... They also died :/
Only exceptions are the final choice in the first game, where whichever person you pick lives (but then they have no real impact on the game), but they always die in episode 3. The other is saving Ben in episode 4, and then he just dies in episode 5 (as I predicted on these forums).
You didn't starve or have any ill consequences if you didn't take the food either.
Even having Kenny and Ben hate me enough they wouldn't help me didn't mean anything as, as I also predicted, they ended up coming with you regardless :/
As I said, I enjoyed the game. I just think it could have been a lot better.

I remember Jeff saying that a lot of people that download the podcast don't actually visit the site. So since they're not making money from those people via subscriptions or even ad revenue in the site, it makes sense to have adverts in the podcast.
I don't mind it, but I'd prefer subscribers get an ad-free feed somehow. As long as it doesn't turn into Rooster Teeth...
Larry's death, since it was before I realised that the game wasn't actually giving you any choices, so I honestly didn't see it coming, then squish :s
Kinda socks that most of the choices boil down to 'kill this person or let them live', and the only two times it doesn't have someone else kill them immediately after you pick 'live', they die in a following episode. Spoilt Doug and Bens death for me.
Since you got the option to kill Ben near the end of the last episode, he's probably going to die at the beginning of this one, probably after redeeming himself.
